Chapter 162 Winning Over



On the day the villa was completed, everyone was very excited, even Bai Wei and the others looked on with envy.

After all, we've lived here for so long, and now we can live independently and even own our own homes, which is something anyone would envy.

Chen Jian was so excited that he jumped up and down in our wooden house, and kept saying that this house would be hard to buy even for a thousand pieces of gold in the city.

To be honest, I don't want to continue living here. There are many inconveniences here, such as the women's period every month.

For example, if we want to store something here, there's simply no way; we can only store it by drying everything completely in the sun.

Another problem is the lack of medicine here, which is fatal for sick people.

Fortunately, we are gradually adapting to life in nature and trying to adjust our mindset. After all, we don't know how much longer we need to survive here, so we must be strong and have faith in order to keep going.

When I was building the wooden house, I specially made a small room for the mother and baby monkeys at the very back.

The mother monkey especially liked to go into that little wooden house and then lie on the wooden bed with her baby monkey in her arms, looking very proud.

Xiao Qiang, Xu Wei, and the others adored the mother and baby monkeys, and even specially cut a small blanket for them using the wolf pelt we had previously hunted.

This villa, handcrafted entirely from wood, is approximately 100 square meters.

The building is divided into upstairs and downstairs. People live upstairs, and there is more than enough space downstairs to store our supplies and food.

And this time, I've carefully crafted a small house for everyone.

Living upstairs allows for better air circulation, preventing dampness and reducing the risk of rheumatism, joint problems, and other ailments.

After all, I need to do my best to provide the best living environment for the three women who are with me.

I also set up a storage room downstairs.

All the food we found was neatly arranged inside, making it easy to see and very convenient.

Most importantly, I'm trying to figure out if we can divert the water from the waterfall below to the mountain, which would completely solve the bathing problem.

After all, I didn't want Xu Wei and Xiao Qiang to be secretly watched by Bai Wei and his group of male colleagues when they went to take a shower.

Everyone in the house gets a wolf pelt.

We also made mattresses from all the lynx pelts and liger pelts we had previously hunted, and we also found a lot of hay with Bai Wei and his male colleagues.

In short, apart from lacking modern glass and electricity, the house is almost perfect.

Xu Wei was also very happy, and even her health had improved a lot. She excitedly told me that she wanted to plant wildflowers in the yard that we had recently expanded.

Xiao Qiang was also very happy, and the two of them discussed where to plant flowers by gesturing and pointing.

Wang Xiaoxiao stood next to me and curled the corners of her lips: "Sometimes I think that being stranded on this deserted island might not be a punishment from heaven, but rather a blessing. After all, in the city, we don't have the time or the mood to tend to the flowers and plants here. But we still have relatives and concerns here, so no matter what, we still have to find a way to go back."

I know that staying here isn't a solution.

But now all we can do is pray that a passing ship at sea will give us a ride.

Otherwise, relying on the search and rescue team is probably completely hopeless.

We were stranded on this deserted island for more than two months, and the search and rescue team never showed up.

Perhaps they already believed we had perished at sea.

There's no need for them to spend any more money or effort to come looking for us.

Now we can only rely on ourselves; only by surviving can we have hope.

Wang Ping's house was built right next to ours.

The house is small, only big enough for one person, but it is small yet complete.

Because I genuinely want to bring Wang Ping into our team.

Firstly, I can't stay in this camp forever without going out. If I go out to find food or other things, then only these few women and this "little villa" that we've worked so hard to build will be left in the camp.

If no one is guarding this place, Bai Wei and his group might have other ideas after their actions, which would only make things more troublesome.

If Wang Ping and Chen Jian stay here, they have guns and won't dare to cause trouble. I feel at ease leaving the woman here.

So this time, I put extra effort into building the house for Wang Ping. I did everything I could, inside and out. Wang Ping was very satisfied and extremely grateful to me.

I know that people always have to give a little bit to get equal feelings in return.

Wang Ping came out alone, so there was no point in even thinking about Bai Wei's supplies, because Bai Wei and his group wouldn't share their things with Wang Ping. Therefore, I didn't let Wang Ping negotiate with Bai Wei and his group.

Instead, we gave Wang Ping a wolf pelt and a lynx pelt from our house, and made him some clay pots and bowls. The food was alright; we gave him enough to last him a few days. We also gave him two short-legged birds, which he kept in his own backyard.

You can eat fruit to supplement vitamins, and you can also make wine to absorb more sugar.

The rice seedlings are the most controversial.

Chen Jian and I were the first to discover that rice seedling, so logically, it should belong to Chen Jian and me.

However, things became a bit complicated because Bai Wei and his group helped us when we transplanted the seedlings later.

There were only 16 pots of rice seedlings, with about 40 stalks in total.

After the final negotiation, Bai Wei and his group received six pots, I received four pots, Chen Jian received three pots, and Wang Ping also received three pots.

Each person moved the rice seedlings to their own territory, and whether the seedlings would survive and produce offspring was left to fate.

In the evening, Wang Ping, Chen Jian, Liu Jiaojiao, and a few of us got together for a meal.

We used a large rock that we painstakingly moved up as a table, and some dead tree roots that we collected over the past few days to make stools. For dinner, we had a cold dish of wild vegetables made with sea salt and ground shrimp, a pot of seafood soup, and some fruit.

This dinner was especially satisfying because our food was no longer monotonous.

The mother and baby monkey were very excited, darting here and there, squeaking happily as they tricked the monkeys into giving them a little food.

However, our situation is very good, but Bai Wei's situation is a complete mess.
