Chapter 19: Monster Merchant And Expensive Wild Goose Down
“Thanks, Big Shot! I only received this much materials just now, and there’s exactly one extra Level 2 Water Collector Accessory.”
Pure Love Cockroach Spicy Spicy sent another message.
Yu Jiang replied to both of them at the same time: “Okay, if there are materials later, I’ll process two pieces for you for free.”
Water Collector upgrade parts were also things she needed!
28-bar Bicycle and 188 Male College Student said they were still short of some materials and would give them to her as soon as they received them.
Yu Jiang also asked them to help collect a few more portions, which could offset the processing fee.
She was going to collect things now, quite a few people were raising prices, and screening trades was too troublesome.
Lightning Mage King: “Thanks, Big Shot! I heard you can gather wild cotton, I haven’t even seen a shadow of it here, I’ll go collect it right away, or do you have extra finished products? I can trade directly? What traditional Chinese medicine do you need to gather?”
Yu Jiang thought about it, this was great, the psychiatrist was transformed into a drug raw material merchant.
“Calamus, Aconite, Honeysuckle, Gardenia, Licorice, Talc, Honeysuckle, these are all fine.”
Among them, Talc is a mineral, since it’s in the primary illustrated guide, it must exist in the game, whether you can encounter it is another matter.
‘X’ had given 15 portions of each material before, after making one set of Warm Clothing, 10 Fabric left, 5 Cotton left.
She had made one set herself, exactly 15 portions of Cotton left, combined just enough to make two sets.
This kind of primary cold-proof clothing had no style to speak of, just the color of the fabric.
Yu Jiang first sent one set to Lightning Mage King.
Then she took out the materials for Qi Replenishing Drink, Mutated Calamus, Bamboo Leaf, Turmeric.
She had a picked-up interface here that could still be used, just plug the Health Pot into the front row power supply.
Strictly according to the recipe ratio, 550ml water + one portion of material, yields two portions of Qi Replenishing Drink.
She had plenty of other materials, just two portions of Calamus, totally yielding 4 portions of Qi Replenishing Drink.
Looking at that somewhat green color, it always felt very dark.
Let her friends try it first!
Yu Jiang excitedly opened the friend list, “Are you asleep? The things are done, I can send them to you.”
After a few seconds, the other side replied, “Not yet.”
“Then come over with an empty bottle, I’ll give you half.”
Received the Water Bottle, Yu Jiang took out the picked-up Stainless Steel Funnel, she had washed it clean when making dinner, so she could use it directly now.
Filled two portions of Qi Replenishing Drink, and gifted them along with two sets of Warm Clothing.
The two portions of drink counted as part of the crafting scroll fee, and the Warm Clothing was equivalent to no processing fee charged.
For long-term cooperation, these small profits didn’t matter, getting Snake Venom and the scroll meant she didn’t lose out.
“See how it feels after you drink it.” Yu Jiang sent a friendly emoji.
X: “Did you poison it?”
This person actually made a rare joke with her, Yu Jiang replied: “No, I just guarantee the effect, not the taste.”
“Okay, got it.”
Ending the conversation, Yu Jiang sent the Warm Clothing to all her friends on the friend list, packed up her things, adjusted the Camping Lamp to the darkest, and placed it in the corner.
Pillow on the Cushion, open the Blanket, then overlay a layer of Four-piece Bedding Set sheet, so it wouldn’t be cold at night.
She only had one Down Quilt, which wasn’t needed in this weather yet.
In such a rainy night, apocalypse road, with a small lamp and a cozy RV, Yu Jiang fell asleep almost as soon as her head hit the pillow.
She slept comfortably in the first half of the night, but in the second half, the rainwater hitting the roof and the wind blowing sounds were a bit noisy, she woke up once, checked inside and outside the vehicle everything normal, lay down and continued sleeping.
At six in the morning, the sky was slightly bright.
The wind and rain were exceptionally fierce, the Front Windshield turned into a waterfall.
Yu Jiang woke up and lay there changing to another position.
With such heavy rain, the Tricycle wouldn’t be easy to drive, better to lie down for a while.
Today’s updated mission was: 50km.
Weekly mission total mileage requirement: 700km.
Average 100km per day.
If not completed, the next three days would lose the night protection status.
Last night when she woke up in the middle, she saw black shadows outside, because of night protection, they couldn’t approach the vehicle, so she ignored them.
After washing up, Yu Jiang half-reclined on the back seat, dragged the Light Screen to right in front, and checked the panel information.
Because of the attack and agility improvements these past few days, stamina and health had also risen a bit.
[Nickname: The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain (No Martial Virtue)

[Vehicle: Brand New Electric Tricycle Pickup Truck (Battery 95%, Mileage 120km)
Wear and Tear: 0 (+5% Shield Value)
Defense: 22
Attack Bonus: None]
[Wealth Value: 0.9]
Without comparison, Yu Jiang didn’t know if this Wealth Value was good or bad.
At least the evaluation after the number sounded better.
Today’s temperature and weather weren’t great, the moderate rain icon on the Light Screen had turned to heavy rain.
[Survival Time: 5 days
Weather: Heavy Rain, Temperature: 16, Humidity 100%, Northeast Wind Level 6.]
Level 6 wind was already strong wind, the sparse Grassland outside, branches in the misty Forest were all blown tilted.
Just one night, the weather changed so much, calculating it was only the second day after the Novice Period.
If the wind strength increased more, the Tricycle might get flipped over.
Yu Jiang took a Milk Bread for breakfast, good thing yesterday when packing supplies, she had also potted all the plants with roots.
Otherwise in today’s weather, nothing would be convenient.
The Tricycle’s body was mainly Plastic Shell, now with strong wind, it felt unsteady.
While opening the Window to wipe the Rearview Mirror, suddenly, a glowing green Monster face came up close.
“Holy crap!”
Yu Jiang exclaimed, immediately retreating backward, grabbing her weapon, preparing to exit from the other door.
Before the door opened, the Monster spoke, “Want mutated wild goose down?”
Only then did Yu Jiang see the name above his head, and that Cloak.
[Monster Merchant: Random appearance, if you meet me, you’ve hit the jackpot! Never try to anger the merchant, the consequence is very serious!]
Hey, scared her, outside there were these green-skinned Zombies, in Silent Town they were even Elite Monsters.
“How much?” Yu Jiang acted not particularly interested in buying.
Actually she super wanted to buy.
Wild Goose Down! The world’s most expensive down material, windproof and rainproof, top warmth, said one quilt nearly 200,000.
Monster Merchant’s eyes turned, “450g, 600 Crystal Coins.”
Actually this wasn’t the first player he met, but the previous ones couldn’t afford it.
Bargaining to zero, half price, some even said he was a student and gave it free.
Directly blacklisted, Monster Merchants on the Road might look different, but they are all in cahoots!
Blacklist means all Monster Merchants blacklist.
Some wanted to rob directly, of course beaten Half Dead, then blacklisted.
“Can it be cheaper, we just came here to survive, where do we have so many Crystal Coins.”
Yu Jiang had a friendly smile on her face, noticing the Monster Merchant glanced at the Sachima inside the vehicle a couple times, she immediately handed one over, “Want a piece?”
[You are the first player to give a Monster Merchant dessert, he looks at you in a new light, Favorability +20!]
