At this moment, the chat channel was filled with complaints:
"I'm speechless. I checked the weather before going to bed, and it was clearly sunny, but the temperature is so low now! Are they trying to freeze people to death?"
"It's so cold! I've been sitting by the fire, but I don't have any warm clothes."
It's impossible to warm up properly; I'm freezing!
"I'm only wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts... I'm freezing, help..."
"Luckily, I didn't sell any of my clothes, so I put them all on, but they're all thin and don't keep me warm at all!"
"I just bought a quilt, and now I'm wrapped up tightly. Although it's still cold, at least I won't freeze to death."
Chen Xiaodong: "The mall is selling 5 blankets, limited quantity, first come first served!"
"You idiot Chen Xiaodong, you can't stand not profiting from this disaster, can you? A blanket costs 800 gold coins? Who can come up with that many gold coins right now?"
Chen Xiaodong: "Just because you can't produce them doesn't mean others can't. In just a short while, the blankets have already been sold out."
"A blanket for 800 gold coins? I just bought a quilt for only 50 gold coins! It weighs ten pounds, and it's so warm to wrap myself in!"
"Who's selling quilts? Do you have any left?"
"I bought it from Boss Luo Xinglan!"
"Boss Luo Xinglan, do you still have any blankets?"
"Boss Luo Xinglan, please make more quilts! I'm freezing to death!"
Luo Xinglan also saw everyone's messages. She glanced at the chat channel and saw that the number of people had decreased from 100,000 to over 80,000, and was still gradually decreasing.
This cold wave is taking some lives.
She really wanted to do something, but she only had a limited amount of cotton and couldn't make any extra quilts.
Luo Xinglan posted helplessly on the world channel: "Making a quilt requires 10 catties of cotton and two pieces of cloth. I still have some cloth, but I really have no cotton left."
"Does anyone have any cotton on hand? Let's put it on the shelves and let Boss Luo make quilts!"
"I don't have it! I've never even seen it!"
"Luo Xinglan, what do you mean now? You're not going to care whether we live or die, and you're just going to watch us freeze to death? How can you be so selfish and cold-blooded?"
Luo Xinglan looked at the message and saw that it was sent by someone named Qin Xiaowei.
So now it's her fault?
She had been trying her best to help everyone survive for the past few days, and now she's being called selfish and cold-blooded just because she couldn't make enough quilts?
Luo Xinglan: "Am I obligated to help you? Instead of wasting time pointing fingers at others, you should think about how to survive."
Qin Xiaowei: "The temperature today has reached minus fifty degrees Celsius, how are we supposed to figure out what to do?!"
Luo Xinglan had never seen such an unreasonable person before, and she didn't want to waste any more time, so she simply stopped replying.
To everyone's surprise, Qin Xiaowei became even more arrogant: "Luo Xinglan, don't think that you can get away with it just because you don't say anything. So you're not worried at all just because you're the one who's freezing, huh?"
Zhou Yiran: "Qin Xiaowei, is there something wrong with you? You're useless yourself, so you're blaming others?"
Jiang Mingze: "What, you're treating Sister Lan like a savior? If you're going to treat her like a savior, then you should treat her like one. Kneel down and kowtow twice!"
Jiang Zifeng: "This is the apocalypse. If you want to survive, you have to rely on yourself!"
Ding Xiaoling: "This is a real-life version of The Farmer and the Snake. Some people's faces are truly ugly."
Many others also spoke up for Luo Xinglan, criticizing Qin Xiaowei for being ungrateful.
Qin Xiaowei was scolded by so many people, so she could only shut her mouth unwillingly. The chat channel briefly returned to calm, but soon everyone started asking for thick clothes again.
Liu Di: "By the way, I have 10 cotton seeds, but I don't have any land. Luo Xinglan, don't you have land? Do you want the seeds?"
Qian Duoduo: "Me too! Me too! [Cotton Seeds x15] Luo Xinglan, do you want some seeds?"
"I have some too, but unfortunately I don't have the land to grow them."
More and more people are contributing their cotton seeds.
Luo Xinglan gritted her teeth and said, "Alright, put all the cotton seeds on the shelves. Oh, and put all the fertilizer on the shelves too."
Looks like tonight will be another sleepless night.
She glanced at the frozen ground outside, put on the cotton-padded clothes, trousers, and shoes that Jiang Mingze had given her, wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, and rushed out quickly.
As soon as I stepped outside, the cold wind felt like knives cutting into my face, stinging painfully. Even the cold air I inhaled made my entire respiratory tract feel icy cold, and my breath turned to ice.
She quickly packed the land into her backpack and rushed back to her room.
I was only gone out for a short while, and the blankets were covered with a thin layer of ice formed from the cold air.
Tonight's cold snap is truly freezing.
Luo Xinglan wasted no more time and took out all the land, temporarily placing it in the living room: 4 square meters of high-grade land, 6 square meters of medium-grade land, and 8 square meters of ordinary land, totaling 18 square meters.
She then checked the shop and found that everyone had already listed a lot of cotton seeds and fertilizers, and the prices were surprisingly consistent, all at 1 gold coin.
Luo Xinglan said in the group chat: "Jiang Mingze, can you help me collect cotton seeds, 100 at a time, and list them directly on the mall? By the way, set a higher price when you list them."
It would be too much of a waste of time for her to buy them one by one.
The items in the mall are sorted by price from highest to lowest. Jiang Mingze's items are priced higher, so they are placed at the top for her convenience.
Time is life now. Even a second could save a life. We must go all out in this relay race of life.
Jiang Mingze: "Okay! Leave it to me!"
Luo Xinglan added, "Yiran, you help me collect the fertilizer. The process is the same as Jiang Mingze's."
Zhou Yiran: "Don't worry, Lanlan!"
Luo Xinglan: "Jiang Zifeng, see if you can still get any short-sleeved shirts or shorts. Once you get them, throw them into the smelting furnace to make fabric."
She still had a lot of fabric left, but it certainly wasn't enough.
Jiang Zifeng: "Okay!"
After the division of labor was completed, Luo Xinglan immediately planted her own long-staple cotton seeds. She also had a lot of fertilizer on hand, so she used a whole bag of it.
The cotton sprouts, grows, forms buds, grows into bolls, and matures in just a few seconds.
The cotton flowers were in bloom, and Luo Xinglan began to pick them. Seeing this, the little ear mouse jumped onto a cotton plant and helped her pick them.
Because these five cotton plants were grown on high-quality soil, the yield increased fivefold, ultimately yielding 12 jin of long-staple cotton and 5 long-staple cotton seeds.
At this moment, Jiang Mingze and Zhou Yiran also listed the cotton seeds and fertilizer they received on the online store.
Luo Xinglan bought them all in one go.
