Chapter 80 Updated on December 8th
Yu Zhu's shop reopened and business was more prosperous than expected.
Unlike the situation in the past where you had to shout (flood the screen with advertisements), now with a loud speaker, who can compete with it? It directly attracts everyone's attention.
No one would doubt that Yu Zhu was lying; her credibility was the highest in the server.
Even those who were against Yu Zhu or disliked her never doubted the authenticity of the anti-cold soup.
At first, they'd occasionally say a few bad things about her in the chatroom, but now that the situation has settled, they've even stopped talking. They've even started complaining about the game's real-name system, asking why they couldn't just change their names. Can't they just give them a chance to start over?!
Of course, some more inquisitive players began to secretly wonder how Yu Zhu's soup could have such a cold-resistant effect. What was the principle behind it? Was it a reward for killing a boss?
Some are envious, some are jealous, and some have their stomachs growling.
In the blink of an eye, someone in the chat area got the finished product and tasted the hot soup.
Luo Xincheng: Wow, this stewed fish is so tender, it melts in your mouth, so delicious!
[Qian Caiyue: Vegetable soup is also good. After drinking it, I feel warm all over.]
Wang Duoyu: Boss Yu is truly a royal chef, his reputation is well-deserved, the food is so delicious it makes me want to cry~
…
Hang Hui: I originally thought I had to drink the whole bowl for the buff to work, but it was so delicious I couldn't resist taking a sip. I immediately saw the cold-resistance buff. It only lasts a few minutes, but that means I can sip the soup slowly! The hour Boss Yu mentioned must be the total time the buff takes! Drinking slowly for a continuous effect is so worth it!
[Xiang Hong: Key point: The quantity is also very generous. I spent 400g and thought I'd get 200g, but I ended up with 360g. That's like buying a cold resistance buff for 40g. It's an incredible deal!]
…
As soon as this news came out, more and more people came to Yu Zhu to place orders. Those who didn't know thought she had paid someone to advertise, but this was all pure tap water. Good products naturally didn't lack free advertising.
The fire in the pot has never gone out since it was ignited. Players with money and houses will buy it to try it out, while those without money and houses will buy it and save it. When they can't stand the cold anymore, they will drink a mouthful of soup to relax.
There is a period of time every night that is the coldest, but once you get through it, you will see the sun tomorrow.
In addition, there are many people who happened to buy houses today, whether it is a wooden house/greenhouse, or a ranch/dog house, which can increase the temperature to some extent, and their money has been almost spent. They did not buy anti-cold soup, but still felt warm when they saw this scene.
It's a good thing to have hope. If they haven't bought a house tonight, they don't know what to do. But now there is another way. The way to survive is not completely blocked, and more people will survive.
When he first started taking orders, Yu Zhu was not very busy. He focused on clear logic. He put the ingredients in the pot, assigned numbers to each buyer who placed an order, and then waited for the food to come out of the pot.
She was responsible for sitting aside and enjoying the snake soup. The taste was delicate and delicious, firm and soft, with many side dishes and rich aroma. Her mouth was never idle and she ate happily.
Until she suddenly heard the game prompt sound.
[Ding! Congratulations! You've successfully made 10 pots of fish stew. Your proficiency has increased by 10%. The cooking time has been reduced from 5 minutes to 4 minutes and 30 seconds!]
[Ding! Congratulations! You've successfully made 10 pots of vegetable soup. Your proficiency has increased by 10%, and your cooking time has been reduced from 2 minutes to 1 minute 48 seconds!]
... [Ding! Congratulations! You've successfully made 50 pots of fish stew. Your proficiency has increased by 50%. The cooking time is 2 minutes and 30 seconds!]
[Ding! Congratulations! You've successfully made 50 pots of vegetable soup. Your proficiency has increased by 50%. The cooking time is 1 minute!]
…
Every time 10 pots are successfully made, the proficiency level will increase by 10%, the cooking time will become shorter and shorter, and Yu Zhu will become busier and busier.
She originally planned to finish work at 9 o'clock, but she was busy until 23:45 late at night. She was so busy that she looked like a spinning top.
The key is that there was no competitor all night. After all, when it comes to the recipe, not everyone can sell it. You have to buy the pot first.
With Mei Bei's operation in the afternoon, the trading area was reformed, and Ming Jingming's conditions for buying the pot were also changed to requiring payment of a portion of key materials + drinking water/all materials.
Yu Zhu bought it first and got a great deal, as she was buying pure ingredients.
Thinking of this, Yu Zhu poked Ming Jingming deliberately. Others didn't sell because they had no conditions, so why didn't he sell it? Don't just watch her busy, get busy too!
Yu Zhu: Why don't you open your business?
[Ming Jingming: Free Fruit and Vegetable Salad x1]
Yu Zhu clicked on it and saw that it had a 20% heatstroke prevention effect. She almost died of laughter. It seemed that her luck was not bad. Of course, it was mainly due to Xinni's luck.
Xinni slept for about two or three hours. Maybe seeing Yu Zhu was too lonely busy by herself, she lay down next to Yu Zhu and worked with her, sniffing non-stop.
Yu Zhu hugged Xinni and rubbed her. She felt healed instantly and her fatigue was greatly reduced.
A total of 108 pots of stewed fish and 79 pots of vegetable soup were sold throughout the night, each pot having 5 bowls, a total of 935 bowls. Not counting the consumed wooden boards, a profit of 37,300g of water was made.
About one-sixth of the people in server 4366 bought Yu Zhu’s anti-cold soup.
Among them, only one-tenth were sold to players who were trying out new products, and the remaining nine-tenths were sold to a group of players in worse conditions.
They often rely on simple sheds and campfires for warmth, and this bowl of soup brings them more vitality.
After announcing the closing of the stall, Yu Zhu brushed his teeth, lay down on the bed, and didn't want to get up anymore. He could finally rest.
If the purpose at the beginning was to make money, working until late at night was really to do a good deed. After all, without Yu Zhu's anti-cold soup, it was unknown whether they could survive the increasingly cold nights.
But Yu Zhu did make a lot of money, enough to buy a small cabin.
She collected today's trading zone earnings, and sold a total of: 183 wooden houses, 239 greenhouses, 14 stone axes, 8 stone pickaxes, 67 wooden spears, 5 bird nests, and 1,421 bonfires.
Just looking at the overall sales, you can feel how cold it is outside.
The number of wooden houses and greenhouses has reached a new high, nearly ten times more than yesterday. It turns out that many people have saved enough money. If they can't save enough money, they will have to consider buying a ranch/dog house. As the environment becomes more severe, corresponding countermeasures must be taken.
Stone axes and stone pickaxes were not sold for much. Even though they were consumables, they had to be used for a period of time before being replaced. Few people were like Yu Zhu, who used stone axes and stone pickaxes as darts. When she fought the BOSS in the afternoon, she ran out of stone arrows, so she threw away both the stone axes and stone pickaxes. She would use any item that could cause some damage without hesitation.
Wooden spears are used to stab sharks, and players' techniques are becoming more and more sophisticated, causing the greatest damage with the least loss.
After several battles, courage and confidence were developed. Everyone found that the shark that attacked at night was always the same one. If you seriously injured it, it would not come back the next day, and would only come on the third/fourth day, depending on the severity of the injury.
The safety of the players has been improved, but the sharks are slippery and hard to kill, so everyone starts thinking about how to kill the sharks. Yu Zhu is the most experienced in this area, and many people ask Yu Zhu for tips openly or secretly.
Yu Zhu has four big words: Just do it!
Anyway, either the shark dies or Yu Zhu survives, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
When asked about the details of the shark slaughter.
Yu Zhu: First like this, then like that, and finally like this again, and that’s it.
Players: ...?
If it were that easy, they wouldn't ask!
Some people inevitably thought that Yu Zhu did it on purpose, but later they found out that they were overthinking it. For a man who is so powerful that he can kill two bosses in an afternoon, how difficult could it be to kill a shark?
Anyway, Yu Zhu didn't care what others thought. She noticed that the number of bonfires was one more than yesterday. She sold 2,001 bonfires in two days, which was equivalent to one-third of the number of people in this server. This showed that her status in the hearts of players was more important. It might be related to selling anti-cold soup, or to killing BOSS. Influence was accumulated slowly.

Before going to bed, Yu Zhu did not forget to bargain with the game: "My logging, quarrying, and fishing quotas today are useless. Save them for tomorrow."
[Okay, good night]
