Chu Guang didn’t pay much attention to the expression on Crow Crow’s face when he stepped into the mutated leech nest.
But when she appeared at the door of the warehouse carrying a big bag of mushrooms, her face always had a look of disgraced joy.
Looking at the sack full of blue mushrooms, Chu Guang couldn't help but feel a hint of surprise in his tone.
"So many?"
The panting Crow Crow nodded vigorously and said with a smile.
"I went in three times! I almost got bitten, hey."
Chu Guang: "..."
Three trips? !
This is too brave.
He wouldn’t dare anyway.
After weighing, a sack of mushrooms weighed a total of 70 kilograms.
This number far exceeded Chu Guang's expectations.
According to his original estimate, he would be able to lift about forty or fifty kilograms until he died. Unexpectedly, she actually weighed seventy kilograms.
"A total of 560 copper coins, equivalent to 56 silver coins. In addition, there are 700 contribution points..."
Are you giving too much?
Forget it.
After all, people risk their lives to make money.
Hearing the numbers read out by the manager, Crow Crow jumped up excitedly and pumped his fists excitedly.
"Nice!"
"Get rich hahaha!"
Chu Guang: "..."
Although I am an NPC, can you find a place where no one is around to get excited?
The thickness of a silver coin is less than 2 millimeters, and a stack of 50 coins is about 9 to 10 centimeters, which is just a drop in the ocean compared to the small vault of the shelter.
After receiving the reward, Crow Crow happily hummed a song and left. However, Chu Guang, standing at the door of the warehouse, touched his chin and thought in his mind.
The richest players at present are probably Lao Bai and Fang Chang. Their strength and understanding of the game are almost in the first echelon of players.
They have been hunting during this period and have almost figured out the areas with the highest prey activity nearby. Their daily income has increased from 52 silver coins to a maximum of 100. Even if the income from hunting is unstable, it should be over in the past few days. I also saved a lot of money.
For safety reasons, Chu Guang will check players' lockers every day.
As expected, the Cow and Horse team should be able to save 200 silver coins today and raise funds to buy the land closest to the resurrection point.
In addition to them, the deposits of other players are also rising steadily. Even if the purchase of wooden weapons, iron weapons, leather protective gear, cold coats, tools and food will consume some, the players with the smallest deposits still basically hold 10 silver coins. above.
"Perhaps the 'Bank' function should be updated."
This will not only save players' storage space, but also give them the silver coins they have saved.
The more Chu Guang thought about it, the more it made sense, and he immediately took out the small notebook in his pocket and wrote it down.
When the opportunity arises, this function must be arranged!
……
While storing the mushrooms in the warehouse, Chu Guang took a look at the inventory in the warehouse.
Excluding the part consumed by the trade with merchants in Honghe Town, the remaining bacon is close to 700 kilograms. After deducting daily consumption, about 100 to 200 kilograms can be stored in the warehouse every day, and more than half of it is used by the cattle and horse teams. contributed.
Today is already the 20th.
If you are not too unlucky, you should be able to increase your inventory to 2,000 kilograms by the end of the month, and exchange half of it for grains and potatoes, at least about 5 tons.
Based on the calculation that each person consumes 4 taels of meat and 7 taels of rice per day, 1,000 kilograms of air-dried meat is enough for 100 people to consume for 50 days, and 5 tons of grain is enough for 100 people to consume for 142 days.
Of course, these are ideal conditions. It is not surprising that the actual situation deviates by more than 20% from the theoretical estimate. After all, the amount of food is also related to the amount of exercise. The more you work, the faster you will get hungry and there will be no work. When doing it, one meal a day is no problem.
"... If you want to increase the number of people in the closed beta test to 100, you must double the theoretical estimated food reserves. Especially meat... It would be good if you can hunt prey in winter. If you can't hunt prey, Trouble."
But if you think about it from another perspective, maybe you won’t need so much food?
It’s not necessary for everyone to be online when it’s too cold, or even every day.
If it is in a dormant state, the clone's consumption of materials will be greatly reduced, and it can even go without eating for up to 7 days.
It’s just that the players may not be happy to not work for such a long time. They must be complaining on the official website again.
But Chu Guang has also thought of countermeasures, and when the time comes, server maintenance will be OK.
How can there be a server that is not maintained?
That makes sense.
Looking at the account book in his hand, Chu Guang was thinking about the future of the shelter, and at this moment, a player trotted in from outside.
"Master Manager, the natives are coming!"
Indigenous?
Chu Guang looked away from the account book and was slightly stunned.
Sun Shiqi just left, there is no way he could come back, right?
Could it be someone else?
After returning the account book to the player who was the warehouse manager, Chu Guang looked at the player who reported to him and asked.
"How many are there and from which direction are they coming?"
"South! There are two men and a girl!"
South?
Hearing this direction, Chu Guang probably guessed who was coming...
……
The southern gate of the outpost.
The old man with wrinkles on his face and wearing an animal skin coat looked up at the 100-meter-wide concrete wall, his cloudy pupils filled with shock and surprise.
The last time he came to Linghu Wetland Park seemed to be two years ago.
The scavengers on Beit Street mainly explore south. Unless they are hunting, they rarely go north along the elevated highway out of the city. After all, they may encounter marauders who rob passing caravans there.
As for Linghu Wetland Park, it is probably a blind spot that would be missed by scavengers and hunters.
There isn't much prey to hunt here, and there isn't much trash to pick up. Almost no survivors will go out of their way to visit here.
I didn’t expect that someone actually built a survivor stronghold in this forest!
Although the three-meter-high concrete wall looks a little shorter, it is brand new and strong. Compared with the patched and broken wall on Beit Street, I don't know how much higher the sense of security is.
Near the gate of the fence, some shelter residents wearing blue coats stood.
The old man became brave and shouted.
"I'm here to meet your manager."
No one responded to him.
Those people just looked at him, whispering to each other in a non-polite voice, but it was impossible to tell whether their eyes contained kindness or malice.
It seems...
More like pure curiosity?
"...Are you sure this is here?"
The old man looked at his second son next to him, with some hesitation in his eyes.
With a large package on his back, Yu Hu nodded vigorously and said with certainty in the face of his father's questioning eyes.
"This is it!"
The expression on the old man's face was obviously more hesitant.
"They don't seem to welcome us."
Yu Hu's expression was slightly awkward, and he leaned closer to his father and whispered.
"Maybe it's not that they don't welcome us, they just... don't understand what we are talking about."
The old man was stunned for a moment.
Don’t understand?
That's not the case... The foreigner in the blue coat from before didn't understand everything.
Yu Xiaoyu glanced at his father and brother, and then at the wall in front of him, his big dark eyes filled with curiosity.
This was the first time she had left Beit Street, and so far away.
Chu Guang...
Really here?
At this time, a familiar figure appeared at the door. When he saw the face clearly, Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly lit up.
However, there were too many strangers nearby.
Hiding behind her brother, she only showed half of her face, looking timidly and curiously.
Surrounded by a crowd of blue coats, Chu Guang walked up to the three of them and stopped.
Looking at the old man who was leading the way, before Chu Guang said hello, the old man plopped down without warning and knelt on the ground, confusing everyone around him.
Chu Guang was also confused.
What is this for? ?
"Dad?!"
Yu Hu looked surprised, but before he could ask, his father grabbed his arm and knelt down.
Xiaoyu looked confused.
She didn’t understand what her father and brother were doing, and she didn’t know what she should do, so she tried to imitate their actions.
"What are you doing...Get up!" Chu Guang, with a big face on his face, stepped forward and helped the old man up from the ground.
But the old man refused to get up. He just lowered his head and his Adam's apple moved for a long time. It took him a long time to squeeze out a sentence from his mouth.
"Thank you."
"You saved our family!"
He is already old. He can work for at most two or three years before he can no longer do it. In fact, he is a bit reluctant this year.
As for his son Yu Xiong, as the eldest son of the Yu family, he is also the strongest labor force of the Yu family, and can be said to be the backbone of the entire family.
If something happens to Yu Xiong, their whole family will starve and freeze.
The old man understood very well.
This foreigner not only saved his son's life, but also his entire family.
But Chu Guang didn't think too much about it. He didn't have to calculate everything. Saving people was just a casual thing.
"You're making it difficult for me... Anyway, get up first."
Now is not the time to be humble. We can’t let people kneel all the time.
As he spoke, Chu Guang used a little force on his hands to help the old man up from the ground.
Perhaps because of what Chu Guang said was embarrassing, the old man did not continue to kneel after he got up, but instead reached out and took off the package from his second son's back.
It was a package made of deerskin, with some animal skins stacked inside. It looked heavy.
The old man held it with both hands, handed it to Chu Guang's hand, and said in a sincere tone.
"You are the benefactor of our Yu family, we cannot let you waste precious medicine in vain."
"We have nothing else to give you. These skins are skinned from mutant hyenas and reindeer. There are seven in total...Excluding the tribute left to the mayor, this is our entire property."
"I know these things are not enough to repay your kindness, but if nothing is done, we will feel uneasy."
"Please accept it!"
It would be really uneasy for me to accept all the wealth of a destitute person.
Chu Guang couldn't laugh or cry for a moment. He didn't accept it directly, and it didn't matter if he didn't accept it.
But at this moment, Chu Guang suddenly felt something in his heart. He thought that even if the old man took the furs back, he would sell them to the old leech on Beit Street and then be brutally slaughtered. He wouldn't get much money at all.
He remembered clearly that there was a sign hanging at the door of old Charlie's grocery store, which said that a mutated hyena skin could be exchanged for 2 chips, and a reindeer skin could be exchanged for 4 chips.
Of these 7 skins, 4 are from mutated hyenas and 3 are from mutated reindeer. According to the price on Beit Street, the old man can sell them for up to 20 chips.
This kind of unequal transaction is already exploitative in itself, not to mention that these 20 chips can hardly be exchanged for anything good in Beit Street.
For example, green wheat. If you want to use chips to buy green wheat on Beit Street, you need 3 chips per kilogram. The price itself is almost three times that of Brown Farm!
It is equivalent to 10 animal skins that can keep out the cold. If you sell one and buy one, you can't even exchange for 10 kilograms of grain.
And that was before food prices rose.
Is this reasonable?
It must be extremely unreasonable!
Of course, these survivors mainly used the bargaining chips obtained from furs to exchange for salt or other daily necessities. Direct purchase of grains was still relatively small. After all, they could grow some sheep's horns themselves, dig tree roots, Catching mice and hunting to get food rations.
But no matter what, this old leech went too far.
Chu Guang has long disliked him!
As a result, Chu Guang reached out decisively and took all the furs, handed them to the player closest to him, and gave instructions.
"Send it to the warehouse and bring over 1 kilogram of coarse salt. I will reward you with 5 copper coins."
Although 5 copper coins is a lot, how can the plot be interesting?
The player looked reluctant.
Although he couldn't understand anything the managers and these natives were chattering there, who hasn't seen two movies without subtitles these days?
But the managers had already stuffed things into his hands without giving him a chance to refuse.
Seeing that he was not moving and the plot was not moving, this little player had no choice but to run towards the base even if he was reluctant.
Didn't have to wait long.
The player who ran back to the base quickly ran out carrying a black plastic bag.
Chu Guang took the coarse salt from his hand and stuffed it into the old man's hand.
"I accepted the fur. There is almost a kilogram of coarse salt. Just treat it as a courtesy!"
The old man was stunned and saw the salt in the bag. He immediately became anxious and quickly pushed the bag of coarse salt back, refusing to accept it.
"How can that be done!"
"You are the benefactor of our Yu family, how can I accept your gift!"
One kilogram of coarse salt!
In Beit Street, 100 grams costs 2 chips, and one kilogram costs 20 chips. Not to mention that when they weigh salt, they are always shortchanged, and even good ones are flipped and sold.
Although the bag of salt that Chu Guang brought was also coarse salt, the quality was much better than that sold in the grocery store under the old mayor's name.
At least it looks translucent, the luster is not so turbid, and the color is not so yellow!
"Just keep it and think I'm taking advantage of you this time."
Chu Guang pushed the plastic bag back without any explanation, looked at the old man and smiled.
"If you still have this kind of fur next time, bring it to me."
"A hyena skin can be exchanged for 150g, and a deer skin can be exchanged for 300g."
"I will charge you as much as you have!"
