Yu Qian'an sent three boxes to Wang Yang, who quickly filled Yu Qian'an with 60 liters of water. Yu Qian'an made him 120 crossbow arrows and added the obtained water into the water tank. Yu Qian'an then transported two more boxes over, and Wang Yang brought 40 liters of water.
Yu Qian'an made coal from wood. He first made ten portions and added them to the machine, then ignited and started the boiler. As the boiler ran, Yu Qian'an found that the boiler consumed 4 portions of charcoal per hour, with a maximum efficiency of 80%. It consumed four liters of water per hour, but the condenser could recover three liters of it.
In other words, even if it is not started now and only the boiler is burned, Yu Qian'an can convert 100 liters of poisonous water into 75 liters of pure water.
Yu Qian'an suddenly thought that if Wang Yang's poisonous water could be used, then the water in the goblin's two water bags should also be used. Yu Qian'an poured the water in the two water bags into the pot.
According to the game, the water in the steam boiler should be obtained by killing goblins and stealing water bags.
It’s a pity that it can only convert three liters per hour, otherwise Yu Qian’an would have become rich.
The condenser can now store up to 50 liters of pure water. Yu Qian'an plans to keep the steam engine running overnight to convert more pure water for use in exchanging supplies tomorrow.
It's only nine o'clock now. If it gets light at six o'clock tomorrow, that's nine hours, enough to store 27 liters of water!
Thinking of this, Yu Qian'an contacted Wang Yang again: "Change me another 100 liters of water, I'm afraid it won't be enough by then!"
Wang Yang: "I can give you water, but you have to help me make all the materials you have into crossbows, or exchange them for food, clean water, or weapons of equal value."
Yu Qian'an's eyes lit up. "Sure, one piece of wood and one iron ingot for one crossbow bolt. How much do you want?"
Wang Yang: "First, exchange for 300 crossbow arrows! If you don't have any food, water, or weapons, I'll give you wood at a high price!"
Yu Qian'an looked at his condenser, which had collected more than three liters of water.
"As for food, I can give you two pounds of barbecue. I don't have much water, so I'll give you one liter at most. As for weapons, I have short spears, daggers, and bows and arrows. If you have the right blueprint, I have a spare machete that I can trade to you!"
Even though you haven't set out yet, you should have heard that half of the treasure chests along the way are guarded by animals."
Wang Yang: "All these things together are worth 100 pieces of wood!"
Yu Qian'an: "One hundred pieces of wood are too little. Look at the current trading interface. One piece of food requires five to eight pieces of wood to exchange, and water can't even be bought for ten pieces of wood. Someone has already offered fifteen pieces of wood. These things are worth fifty pieces of wood.
There are also daggers, short spears and bows and arrows, and I am the only one who sells these three items.
It will take at least 200 pieces of wood in total."
Wang Yang: "No, it's too expensive. One hundred and twenty at most. I need to keep some for other supplies!"
Yu Qian'an: "150. If I sell them separately, I'm sure they'll sell for more!"
Wang Yang: “Deal!
I have a glass manufacturing blueprint (one-time) for the machete, and a machete is not enough for you!"
Yu Qian'an: "That's enough. After all, glass isn't a necessity, but weapons are. Do you understand? And after you reach 100 kilometers, you'll still need me to make charcoal. We'll have plenty of opportunities for cooperation in the future. Give me the glass drawings, and you can come to me to exchange them if you need anything in the future. I'm a fair business person."
Wang Yang: "Okay, let's change it! I think trains will definitely be able to install glass in the future, but I only have a flat panel now, so glass is useless.
Now that I have a machete, I'm sure I can get better chests. I'm incredibly lucky to be the only one who found such a large water source."
Yu Qian'an finally used two portions of barbecue, 1L of water, a short spear, a dagger, a bow and arrow, and a machete to exchange for 150 pieces of wood, 60 liters of poisonous water, and a glass manufacturing blueprint (disposable).
Including the 300 crossbow arrows just traded, Yu Qian'an earned 240 pieces of wood and 240 pieces of iron. Now he has 624 pieces of wood and 262 pieces of iron.
Opening the glass drawing, Yu Qian'an discovered that making one piece of glass required one piece of charcoal and one piece of glass fragments. There was no shortage of charcoal, but there was no broken glass left.
Yu Qian'an asked people one by one on the trading interface, and most people were only willing to exchange broken glass for water and food.
Yu Qian'an also discovered a problem. Many people got things like mineral water and instant noodles when they opened boxes, but it seemed that most of what he got were blueprints and tools. It seemed that his luck was not good and he didn't need these basic supplies.
Now people are looking to buy water everywhere. Some people offer twenty pieces of materials in exchange for one liter of water but still cannot get it. In other words, the price of water has reached the point where one piece of wood can only be exchanged for about 50ml.
Yu Qian'an contacted these people and exchanged them for 100ml of glass fragments, which is one-fifth of the amount of a bottle of mineral water. Yu Qian'an didn't know whether they could drink enough, but he felt that it was an equal exchange.
In fact, for most people, as long as they are willing to put in the effort, they can run 50 to 60 kilometers, 17 to 180 kilometers. Even if they don’t take the boxes with wild beasts and only take ordinary boxes, they can still open seven or eight.
At least one-third of the people have enough food and drink, and the rest are either unlucky or lazy. These people just want to get something for free, but they don’t have the resources to exchange.
Of course, there were also more than a dozen people who had already reached the 100-kilometer position. These were the big guys in the game. At this time, they were being flattered by everyone, bragging and chatting. However, if they were asked to talk about their experience on the road ahead, this group of people would immediately become so stubborn that they would not be willing to chat privately. They were all led astray by Yao Yong.
