Chapter 56: Washing Machine, Water Purifier, Fog Light Scroll
Pure Love Cockroach Spicy Spicy: [That’s because you got blocked, aren’t you disdainful of this food? Why buy it then.]
The Bigger the Waves, the More Expensive the Fish, [Thanks to The Sound of Wind, your trade failed, and I picked up a bargain on the last share of Fish-Flavored Shredded Pork. Not to speak of it, but we’re already in apocalypse survival, being able to fill your stomach without losing health value is fortunate enough, and yet you’re being picky.]
The Sound of Wind: [I was grabbing it for a friend! You’re a top ten big shot after all, but your tolerance is too small, blocking over a word—trying to do hegemony monopoly?]
Lightning Mage King: [Are you okay? Others not wanting to sell things to you is hegemony monopoly? Good thing you didn’t buy it, picking up the bowl to eat and putting it down to curse.]
Ling Ziyun: [Didn’t grab any food ”crying” Big Shot, do you have any more? Can you list some more?]
Sicily: [I also want to try stir-fried dish, any flavor is fine ”pitiful” Big Shot’s stuff is too hard to grab]
The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain: [None left, come earlier next time.]
Yu Jiang didn’t say she had specially reserved shares willing to trade with rare resources.
If she said it, no one would come to negotiate; some people would just wait, and when she couldn’t trade them out, they’d put them back on the trading platform.
At this time, Sad Pig Intestine also sent over dinner rice balls.
Full of color, aroma, and flavor, just looking at them whets the appetite; everyone gets four, and those providing more supplies who aren’t full can get two more.
Yu Jiang still had plenty of food here, paired with two pieces of honey roast chicken wings, four were enough.
Just as she started eating, someone private messaged her.
He Qi Sheng Cai: “Big Shot, I have a washing machine blueprint here, do you want it? How much food can you give?”
He was a bit worried; he had listed it during the day to trade for food, but the quoted prices from several people were lower than the last, the most outrageous being wanting to trade 3 protein blocks for the washing machine blueprint.
He wasn’t willing, and they even said he would starve to death soon anyway, so hoarding the blueprint as a family heirloom—what a joke, he should be laughing to get food for it.
Yu Jiang thought for a moment; this washing machine wasn’t an ordinary one, it was vehicle-specific.
It also had levels; higher levels saved more water and energy, included drying function, and reduced clothing wear and tear.
However, this was a primary washing machine, with only the most basic washing function, and couldn’t wash much at once.
It could wash underwear, which was very useful for improving quality of life!
“5 bags of expired but unspoiled biscuits, plus 5 bottles of mineral water, and two pieces of individually packaged cake; the cake isn’t expired.”
This was the highest price Yu Jiang could offer; no one knew how long the supply acquisition probability reduction would last, and even with plenty of supplies, she didn’t dare craft casually.
In the end, only basic supplies could guarantee survival; if even that couldn’t be guaranteed, life-improvement setups had no meaning.
She was willing to show sincerity to acquire it; if the other party lacked sincerity, then forget it.
He Qi Sheng Cai: “Can trade for this much food?! Okay, trade!”
You know, today’s highest quoted price was just 5 compressed biscuits and 1 pea can.
There really weren’t many people willing to trade this much for a primary scroll.
Afterward, Yu Jiang acquired a ‘water purifier scroll’ at a similar price.
Installed on the vehicle, it could connect to the water storage device, with not only filtering but also heating and ice-making functions.
Good stuff! Just that turning on heating and ice-making used quite a bit of energy.
As long as she had enough batteries and water, she could live with hot water and ice water anytime, instant noodles and instant coffee no problem!
She also acquired a fog light crafting scroll.
This wasn’t an ordinary fog light; it had strong penetration, able to illuminate 20 meters in front of and behind the vehicle in heavy fog or snow.
Crucially, in the same environment, she could see vehicles within 20 meters, while if the other party had no fog light, they couldn’t see her.
This wave of trades was very worthwhile; except for the small portion reserved for herself, all the supplies scavenged from the service area had been cleared out.
Gained 10 grids of vehicle storage space, alleviating the grid crisis a bit; Yu Jiang loaded some supplies piled in the corner into it.
She still liked the feeling of neat storage; things too messy always affected her mood.
Scavenging today had used too much physical energy; Yu Jiang just wanted to lie down and rest, manufacturing could wait until tomorrow.
Outside was acid rain; after dinner, it wasn’t good to go out for exercise anyway, staying on the vehicle was more comfortable.
Yu Jiang took out a scavenged bamboo fruit tray, washed some fruit, used the bedside cabinet as a table, set it up, and opened the public screen.
Eating while browsing messages was her only way to relax at night.
After all, this place had no tablets or phones, no listening to music or watching movies.
In the game every day, people got scammed and posted to warn everyone; some were true, some one-sided views. Unexpectedly, while looking, she saw her own nickname again.
Little Orange Cat: [Don’t know when I offended the big shot, couldn’t buy stuff just now either. Big Shot has lots of supplies, but the trading platform gets blocked easily, so be careful everyone.]
The Sound of Wind: [I said it early, he wants hegemony monopoly, puts out some expired food he doesn’t eat himself, gets good reputation, acquires materials, and even rare scrolls from others, right?]
Ye Wuyou: [Looking for alchemist to team up, someone up there suppressing, hard to level up solo. While you’re collecting spider silk everywhere, they’ve already got achievements. My strength is decent, at least can help fight spider silk.]
The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain: [@ It wasn’t you I blocked just now, I checked, previously no nickname set, default numbered player 7699, right? The one who bought the crafting bench and regretted it.
When I listed it, I clearly wrote just expired two or three months, so cheap. Who says I don’t eat it myself? Pre-packaged meals really no space, listed to avoid waste. So what if I traded for materials and scrolls? You didn’t trade because you didn’t like it?
If your quoted price was higher than mine, you’d have the scrolls now too. No one’s stopping you. Playing yin-yang master with me?]
Yu Jiang didn’t care what others thought of her tolerance; she always only cared about actual gains.
With her fiery temper, she confronted directly, never internalizing stress but externalizing it onto others.
Quanda Zhen Guanxi: [You two shut up! Braised meat mixed noodles are so fragrant! I ate it, flavor is normal too.]
Lu Zhishen Buries Flowers: [Struggling for survival on the road during the day, finally some rest at night, you two really have energy. Don’t have such strong possessiveness over others’ supplies, OK?]
Super Idea King: [You two’s nicknames are interesting, same team?]
Lu Zhishen Buries Flowers: [Of course not, how could kill-happy nicknames be in the same group.]
Those two who didn’t buy and made a fuss got called out by everyone a few times and stopped talking.
Yu Jiang sat on the bed, holding two thermos cups filled with hot water, did some simple back and arm exercises before resting.
The next few days, prepare to face the next instance.
She only had 266 crystal coins left; if encountering another service area, probably could only watch helplessly.
Zombies on the road these past two days were few, no money-making opportunities.
She was simply heartbroken.
Zombies don’t come out in acid rain? Don’t they have dreams?
