After thinking about it, Li Ziyu sent a message to the conscientious businessman again, and started a big discussion about exchanging bones for food. After some indirect hints and bargaining, the final price was set at 2 units of food for 1 skeleton.
It’s not that conscientious businessmen don’t want to get some more, but the main reason is that skeletons are really cheap and not many people need them. Except for people like the Undead City Lord, skeletons are basically kept in the bottom of the box and thrown into the warehouse to collect dust.
If Li Ziyu had not asked for the bones, the conscientious businessman would not have collected them at all. Collecting these 100 skeletons was almost like getting them for free. It was already very good to be able to exchange them for some food. In the wilderness, food could be exchanged for a lot of good things with the indigenous people.
As a reseller, the conscientious businessman's understanding of the wasteland is completely different from Li Ziyu's understanding of the wasteland. There is a misunderstanding here that Li Ziyu did not notice, that is, the moving castle!
After arriving in the other world, as a time traveler, Li Ziyu brought his mobile castle and became the city lord. He could drive the mobile castle around the wasteland. Wherever he went, that was his territory, and the undead were always with him.
But in fact, the real indigenous forces in the wilderness are not like this. They have their own sphere of influence and territory boundaries. Most of the time, the indigenous people will not leave their sphere of influence and are restricted to an area. This is for stability and safety. After all, it is too dangerous to go to unfamiliar places.
In this way, the indigenous people can get whatever is in the territory. If there are not many animals and vegetation in the territory, there will not be much food. If there is no stream passing through the territory, even drinking water becomes a problem.
Li Ziyu, who had just arrived in the alien world for a few days, did not notice this at all, but the conscientious businessman noticed it. This was a business opportunity. He clearly understood that in the wilderness, food and water, even if they were not hard currency, would definitely be easy to sell and the price was quite good. All he had to do was to establish good relations with the indigenous people.
Using the bones that the indigenous people didn't care about and discarded everywhere to exchange for food from the Undead City Lord is a very profitable business. Even if the price is not high, the conscientious businessman will be extremely satisfied.
With the help of the system, the two completed the handover. Li Ziyu's warehouse lost 200 units of food, but gained 100 skeletons, and everyone was happy.
Conscientious businessman: It’s a pleasure to cooperate with you, dear, and you are welcome to visit us next time.
Don’t want to take a driver’s license test: Happy cooperation.
Conscientious Merchant: Dear, do you need more bones?
Don’t want to take a driver’s license: If you need one, please contact me.
Conscientious businessman: Okay, dear.
After the conversation ended, a smile appeared on Li Ziyu's face. 100 skeletons, this was at least equivalent to two days' harvest. He didn't expect it to come so easily. Sure enough, if he wanted to become stronger quickly, trading was the best choice.
Skeletons can be exchanged for skeletons of the undead, used to make bone knives to enhance the strength of the undead, and used to build construction equipment in the system and transform mobile fortresses. They can be used in all aspects. Let alone 100 skeletons, even if there were 1,000, Li Ziyu felt that it would not be enough.
Come on, come on, let the bones come even more violently!
The mobile fortress was traveling across the desolate wasteland, searching for prey, but Li Ziyu was hiding in the main building of the castle, thinking about what to do with these 100 skeletons next.
There seemed to be a lot of skeletons obtained in this transaction. When the mobile castle was in short supply everywhere, including buildings, weapons, and defenses, skeletons were needed. It was difficult for him to decide where to put the resources for the time being.
Alas... we are still poor, so we have to save money and manage our household frugally.
Li Ziyu sighed silently, feeling ashamed of the other time travelers. After traveling for so many days, the mobile castle was still at level 1. Although it was called a castle, it was actually far from being a castle. It was a fortress at best. Even if the attached skeletons and undead were removed, the fortress would become an empty shell.
Quite miserable.
Through the window of the fortress, Li Ziyu looked at the wilderness in the night, but was suddenly stunned. He was only thinking about the newly traded skeletons, and had not yet studied the two new buildings he had built. He hurriedly clicked on the system interface.
The skeleton engine has been installed and placed at the bottom of the fortress. It looks like a curled-up bone ball with a hideous and huge skull with fangs embedded on it. The light of soul energy flashes inside, revealing a mysterious color.
[Skeleton Engine: Powered by psychic energy, it can increase the mobile fortress's speed by 100 km/h (limited: increase the speed by 20 km/h)]
Um... restricted?
Li Ziyu looked at the prompts in the system introduction and couldn't help scratching his head. He thought that he could use them all directly after building them. Now it seems that he thought too much.
I'll have to figure out what's limiting the speed of the skeleton engine. Speed is very important for a moving castle, so I have to figure it out.
He then clicked on the Armor Workshop. The appearance of the Armor Workshop was almost exactly the same as the Weapon Workshop, except for the sign on the door. There were swords and knives on the Weapon Workshop, and there was a shield and a suit of armor on the Armor Workshop. When the door was closed, it looked like a suit of armor holding a shield for defense.
I opened the interface of the Armor Workshop and took a look. Well, it is similar to the Weapon Workshop, except that the weapons are replaced with shields and armor. If you want to make them, you still need to consume soul energy to unlock them.
The cheapest piece of armor is a small round shield (bone), which can be unlocked with 30 units of soul energy. It is the most basic defensive equipment. Li Ziyu thought about it and unlocked it casually. The bone knife has been unlocked, so a shield is not a big deal. It would be good to be able to improve defense.
