Apocalypse Lord - 46. well

Early in the morning, You Qingwen and Zheng Mingyue called their teammates and went out to dig trees.

With the tacit cooperation of everyone, more than a dozen cypress trees soon grew near the house.

You Qingwen returned to the wooden house and found that it was a lot cooler.

“Before it was sultry and hot, and the people who were almost overwhelmed could not breathe. Now the temperature drops, and occasionally there is wind, and I feel better.” She sighed, “Broken games are really tossing people to death.”

Zheng Mingyue dismissed the team members and asked them to go back to rest. When I walked in, I heard my girlfriend’s broken thoughts, and couldn’t help laughing, “The doomsday natural disaster game is just like urine, just get used to it.”

You Qingwen said quietly, “I may never get used to it.”

Spicy chicken games have no bottom line, and there are so many traps, far beyond her imagination.

Zheng Mingyue sat down to rest and asked, “How is the newly made bacon?”

When talking about business matters, You Qingwen’s expression was solemn, “It’s okay for now. Put on salt and marinate in the same way as before. No meat has deteriorated.”

Zheng Mingyue was a little relieved, “It seems that it is indeed a salt problem. Non-game materials have a short shelf life.”

You Qingwen showed a look of worry, “The salt sold in the restaurant is easy to use, but the portion is too small! Not only does it have to be robbed, but you can only buy one pack a day. Even if you buy it every day, you can’t save much.”

Zheng Mingyue looked down and thought deeply. After a while, he raised his eyes and asked, “I can’t make bacon. How about bacon and bacon?”

“Bacon and bacon?” You Qingwen looked blank, obviously touching a blind spot in knowledge.

Zheng Mingyue explained, “The so-called bacon is to hang the meat in a cool indoor place to air dry.”

“The so-called bacon is smoked and roasted with wood fire. The taste of roasting depends on the type of wood used.”

“After removing the moisture, the meat can be stored for a long time. I heard that if you make bacon, if you smoke it continuously for 7-10 days, you can eat the meat for five years.”

You Qingwen, “…”

Five years? Is he joking or serious? You can’t store it in the refrigerator or freezer for so long!

“The so-called shelf life of some foods is based on the premise that it does not affect the taste. In fact, you can eat it with your eyes closed when you are hungry.” Zheng Mingyue said.

You Qingwen was so shocked that she couldn’t speak for a while.

Speaking of this, Zheng Mingyue sighed slightly, showing regret, “I also blame us for being too impatient, afraid that the weather will be too hot and the meat will spoil, so we hurriedly took out the supermarket refined salt to marinate.”

“I asked the other members. They have big hearts. They just put the chicken wings in the cupboard without marinating, smoking, or making bacon. After a few days, the ingredients are good, and they haven’t deteriorated at all.”

“This is a game after all. As long as there is a system setting, even in the summer heat, the game ingredients will not rot and deteriorate.”

It took a long time for You Qingwen to recall, “That is to say, the cured meat will be spoiled by using supermarket salt before. If you don’t use salt, you don’t dry anything, and the meat will be fine.”

Zheng Mingyue nodded, “Yes.”

You Qingwen, “…”

She gave herself up, “Then what do we do with bacon, bacon, and bacon!”

“If I’m not mistaken, after the correct method is used, the shelf life of the finished product will be longer than that of the ingredients.” Zheng Mingyue said seriously, “For long-term consideration, it is better to deal with it or deal with it.”

You Qingwen lost her temper, “I don’t quite understand this, I listen to you.”

“En.” Zheng Mingyue replied in a low voice, softly comforting, “Don’t be afraid of stepping on the hole, just be careful in the future, don’t care too much.”

You Qingwen still feels heartache when thinking about the meat that she has finally saved. This has to be changed to another game, she probably abandoned the game a long time ago.

A bowl of mung bean soup worth 50 copper coins to exchange for a BOSS, this transaction is quite a bargain.

This time, even the assassin, it’s hard to say that buying mung bean soup is a waste of money. After all, after killing the BOSS, the team got 1 orange, 1 purple, 3 blue and 1 white equipment, a number of skill cards, no matter how you look at it, it is a big harvest!

On this day, I heard that transplanting trees can adjust the temperature and make the living environment more comfortable. Rarely, Zhang Fan did not go out hunting, but led a team to plant trees next to the big guy’s residence.

After transplanting the cedar, it was found that the surrounding temperature had indeed dropped. Everyone swarmed out of the territory and dug an osmanthus tree to help Granny Qian plant it.

“You work so hard every day, so you don’t need to help us plant trees.” Mother-in-law Qian declined.

“Such a trivial matter is nothing.” Zhang Fan didn’t care.

While talking, the tree has been planted.

Granny Qian had to give in, “Are you tired? I’ll make herbal tea for you.”

“No, I will get out later.” Zhang Fan declined Granny Qian’s stay and set off again with the team.

After a busy day going back and forth like this, a small forest was finally planted.

“Hurry up and rest.” Mother Qian urged her to make tea for everyone.

Some people drank the tea like “gumming” and drank the tea. At the end, they lit up, “It’s delicious! Quench your thirst and go to the summer heat. What kind of tea is this?”

“It’s buckwheat tea.” Granny Qian replied, “It’s sweet and cool in nature, clearing away heat and detoxifying, and drinking it in summer is just right.”

Others are ignorant and seem to have heard of it for the first time.

At this moment, coincidentally went home. Seeing Zhang Fan and others, he was overjoyed immediately, “Brother Xiaofan? I’m looking for you!”

Seeing it was a coincidence, Zhang Fan smiled and asked, “What’s wrong? Is there anything wrong?”

“Didn’t I say that I would help you make salt? Here, it’s done.” Qiaoqiao handed out a knotted square linen cloth.

When I opened it, there was a pile of white crystals, which were obviously salt.

Qiaoqiao said, “If there is no suitable container, wrap it in cloth first. Don’t worry, the cloth is clean.”

Seeing Zhang Fan, he was speechless for a long time.

The companion probed the probe and asked curiously, “Where did the raw materials come from? Whether it’s sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric acid, it’s not easy to get it!”

Qiaoqiao Weiqi, “Generally, salt is made from sea water, otherwise lake salt, well salt, or mineral salt will work.”

The person who asked the question, “…”

The knowledge learned has long been returned to the teacher.

Accidentally revealed the old bottom, embarrassing.

Zhang Fan hesitated a little, “Is this game material?”

You know, non-game materials have a very short shelf life, which is not easy to use at all.

“It should be counted.” Ingenious analysis, “I use lake water to make salt. Isn’t the lake water obtained in the game?”

“If you don’t worry about it, you can take a part and try it out. After you confirm that there is no problem, then continue to pickle.”

Zhang Fan was determined, “Thanks.”

“Brother Xiaofan, you are too polite!” Qiaoqiao smiled brightly, not taking credit.

Zhang Fan reminded, “If it is easy to use, you can make salt and sell it for money in the future. Recently this thing is on fire! If you set up a stall, many people must be rushing to ask for it.”

Qiaoqiao had a thought in her heart.

**

Three days passed in a flash.

Hu Dacheng made the first well.

[Name: Well built by the player “Yunling”]

Quality: Normal

Effect of use: The temperature can be adjusted to obtain drinking water.

Note: The water well belongs to the personal property of the player “Yunling”. Only with her consent, other players can take water.

Seeing the well, the first thought that came to Yun Ling’s mind was to put the watermelon on the ice and bring it up later, it should be delicious.

“It’s done, look at it.” Hu Dacheng motioned to Yunling for acceptance.

Yun Ling pretended to look at it, and nodded solemnly, “Good job, this is wages.”

She is not afraid that the other party will charge money and pat her butt to leave. Other territories are not as friendly as Lingyun Town. As long as the person stays in the territory, if there is a problem with the well in the future, there is always a way to settle the account with him.

Three days! 500 copper coins! How come this money is so easy to earn!

Hu Dacheng carefully held the copper coin, his whole person was surprised and happy, and was so happy.

“If you are tired, take a day off and drill the second well tomorrow.” Yunling promoted humanitarian care.

Hu Dacheng straightened his waist and said, “I’m not tired! I can do it! I will be able to dig all five wells in a few days!”

If he was slow and robbed of work, he would have to cry to death.

“Speed is important, quality is also important, pay attention to quality and quantity.” Yunling reminded.

“I understand.” Hu Dacheng solemnly responded.

**

In the evening, the smoke curled up.

A woman was carrying a wooden barrel and was about to fetch water from a stream outside the territory. Passing by the middle of the town, she was surprised, “When are there more drafts here?”

I thought it was a system building, but when I checked it carefully, the panel showed——

[Name: Well built by the player “Yunling”]

Quality: Normal

Instructions for use: The player’s personal property, and other people use it, each time a copper coin needs to be paid.

“There is a charge for fetching water? I’m really crazy about money!” The woman was annoyed.

There are also people who have been tired for a day and really don’t want to walk too much, so they pay directly, put a bucket, and fetch water.

When the barrel came up, he rushed to his face with the well water and poured a few more sips into his stomach. The whole person suddenly became much cooler, “Hoo-really comfortable.”

“Whoever loves to spend wrong money, anyway, I don’t rarely hit her house.” The woman snorted.

The man who fetched the water said, “Although I have to collect money, the water is really good. In summer, the water in the well is cool and tastes slightly sweet, not the same as the stream water.”

The woman looked at the man suspiciously, as if looking at a support.

The man laughed and laughed, and simply stopped talking.

At this time, a young man found the well and quickly approached. When he saw the name of the well, his brow furrowed, “Strange, the territory is called’Lingyun Town’, and the player who digs the well is called’Yunling’? Why is the name so similar?”

Judging from his appearance, it seems that some great secret has been unearthed.

“There are too many people in town called Yunling and Lingyun! There are only four or five people I know. What’s so strange?” the woman said angrily. “The strangest thing is that the well is located in the center of the territory. What is the charge for using public property!”

“Just because this well was built by others.” The man couldn’t listen, and said to be fair. “You also live in the territory. Should you donate all your belongings first and use it as public property?”

Woman, “…”

“I have to fetch water and cook, so I have no time to talk to you.”

But in the blink of an eye, she had already walked away carrying the barrel.

“Worry about it.” The man murmured, and poured the water in the wooden bucket into his own basin. Then he took the basin and went home happily.

Ask him to say that the water in this well is not much different from the ice. As long as 1 copper coin, you can fill a bucket of water, which is really cost-effective!

The man thought to himself, after waiting two hours, he would take a cold shower quickly. After getting into the bed to sleep, you won’t be awakened by the heat at night!

The more he thought about it, the happier he was, and even his footsteps became brisk.

In a blink of an eye, the residents walked away, leaving only young people standing beside the well.

At this moment, he no longer dared to mention “Yunling and Lingyun have similar names, will there be any connection between them?” It is so strange that I am afraid that I will be rejected by others again…

After listening to Zhang Fan, Qiaoqiao planned to sell salt, but there are two problems.

As a result of insufficient equipment, salt can only be produced in small quantities.

Secondly, she lacks a container, so she can’t sell salt and give customers sackcloth at the same time.

Finally, Qiaoqiao sighed, dispelling the thought, “Make the salt, save it for yourself.”

“That’s right.” Mother-in-law Qian didn’t say a word. Seeing my granddaughter figured it out, he immediately smiled with relief, “You listen to my grandmother’s advice. In famine years, coins are useless! I hold a lot of grain in my hand, and I feel confident in my heart.”

“I listen to grandma.” Qiaoqiao is very well-behaved, “When we have salt, we will make bacon and store it. There are many stocks, and it’s best to eat it for a year!”

Granny Qian was amused, “Grandma will make rice wine for you, go to bed early after eating, and have a good dream at night.”

Qiaoqiao, “…”

She suspected her grandmother was laughing at her.

But there is no evidence.

**

After waiting for three days, no one contacted her except Hu Dacheng.

Professional talents are indeed scarce, and it is fortunate to have one.

As soon as the thought came up, Yunling received a reminder that [Lingyun Town’s greening rate reached 20%, and the temperature in the territory dropped significantly. 】

[The player “Tian Zhehan” tried to dig fish ponds at xxx and xxx coordinates in Lingyun Town, do you agree? 】

Yunling paused slightly. It turned out that it was not that there were no talents, but that people were unwilling to work and wanted to do it alone.

As long as there are “fish pond” buildings in the territory, it doesn’t matter if she didn’t build them. Speaking of it, after the fish pond is built, it will be a headache to send someone to take care of it.

Thinking of this, Yunling decisively clicked “Yes”.

The prompt changes again, [After the fish pond is built, it will become the personal property of the player “Tian Zhehan”. Will there be a fee? 】

[1. How many copper coins do players need to pay to purchase the land in Lingyun Town? 】

[2. How much tax does the player need to pay for building a fish pond in the future? Tax payment can be paid in kind, in currency, or both? 】

[3. In order to promote the development of the territory and mobilize the enthusiasm of the residents, you can also choose not to charge. 】

Yun Ling exclaimed, “It’s amazing.”

Then I did not hesitate to set up to collect 1,000 copper coins, the tax rate of 10%, and the payment in kind.

This means that if Tian Zhehan wants to sell the place, he must first pay 1,000 copper coins.

Secondly, if you raise fish in the future, regardless of the harvest year, 10% of the income will be handed in. And live fish must be given, and copper coins are not tax deductible.

After waiting for a while, the system prompts, [The player “Tian Zhehan” agrees to pay. 】

[You got 1,000 copper coins. 】

[The transaction is concluded. 】

“There are fish to eat.” Yunling was bubbling with beauty in her heart.

She opens the panel, remotely manipulates, and cancels the employment mission in the mission hall.

When she saw “employed players who can dig fountains”, she couldn’t help feeling, “If someone secretly builds a fountain, how good would it be?”

Saying that, I know in my heart that this is only an illusion after all, and it can’t come true.

You can charge a fee for water from wells, and fish can be produced in fish ponds. What about fountains? That is a public welfare building, a pure landscape! Except for adjusting the temperature in the territory, it has no effect.

So fish ponds were rushed to build, wells were hit, and fountains were unattended.

Fortunately, there are green plants and wells in the territory, and it does not matter whether there is a fountain or not.

View NPC information.

There are currently 25 combat-type NPCs, and only one more person can be refreshed, 20 people can protect the gathering squad, and 6 people will go to the nearby territory to explore with her.

In fact, Yunling had long wanted to go to other territories. But the last time I visited Sunset Village, I was really impressed. There is no NPC to accompany her, she is not at ease.

It’s sad to say that the territory refreshes 3 NPCs every day, either with low level, poor skills, or professional (life skills) wrong.

If you don’t choose, you can hire one by one. However, considering the food issue, she only intends to hire elites, so there is not much room for selection.

Fortunately, after waiting for a few days, an expedition team was finally formed.

**

studio.

Yunling gave Zhang Heng today’s high-temperature subsidy and asked, “Is there a way to increase salt production?”

Zhang Heng regretted, “It’s difficult without equipment.”

Yunling suddenly thought, “If I can’t find a professional instrument, can I make it myself?”

“You are kidding” Zhang Heng’s face.

Given that this is an employer, he euphemistically said, “Maybe someone will do it, but I won’t.”

Yun Ling had no choice but to dismiss the thought, “Forget it.”

Seeing that the employer was doing nothing and wandering around in the studio, Zhang Heng suddenly said, “The paper covering the salt is used up.”

Upon hearing this, Yun Ling couldn’t help frowning.

Generally speaking, salt is packed in plastic bags. Now in the last days, without that condition, we can only retreat to second place.

Yunling thought about whether bamboo tubes or wooden pots could be used, but it took time and effort, and secondly, the container was too large and the output was not that much. In the end, it seems that it is the most convenient and most efficient to use square paper to hold it and tie it into a small bag.

She also thought about what to do when she ran out of paper. It’s just that the sales of salt were mediocre at the time, and she thought it could be used temporarily.

Unexpectedly, the salt was sold suddenly and all of the packaging materials were used up.

“I’ll find a way.” Yun Ling’s expression was solemn.

Continue to use paper packaging, how to produce new paper? Maybe there are related drawings falling in the game? But I haven’t heard of it!

Change to another container and use a small round wooden jar with mouth grease in the future? Don’t say that you can’t hold much salt, you need a lot of wood, and the cost will increase accordingly.

Should we just make salt in the future and let customers bring their own containers?

Suddenly, several emergency plans came to mind.

unexpectedly–

“Oh no, the matter has been resolved, I just tell you.” Zhang Heng said lightly.

Yunling, “???”

solved? How to solve it?

She was quite surprised.

Zhang Heng explained, “My grandfather likes to write calligraphy with brushes. The rice paper bought outside is of average quality, so he has to make it himself.”

“Following for a long time, it’s hard to understand. If you don’t say anything, catch me and beat him. I will do it after a long time.”

“I found out that the paper was gone. I immediately made a new batch and I have used it now.”

Yunling, “…”

What else can she say?

Of course, “In the future, the daily salary will rise to 80 copper coins. Eat a good meal for three meals, and chicken legs are allowed.”

“Thank you boss.” Zhang Heng said cheerfully.

**

The 49th day.

In the early morning, Yun Ling received a system prompt as soon as he opened his eyes, [Luo Ri Village was breached. 】

The moment I saw the prompt, my sleep was gone.

“Has the village been breached too?” Yun Ling whispered, with a little bit of disbelief in his voice.

However, looking at the small map, Sunset Village has indeed disappeared.

In fact, during this period, almost every morning can receive information, [xx camp was breached. 】

It’s just that Yunling defaults to the system territory devil configuration, and the player cannot live. Unexpectedly, the sunset village fell today.

Open the panel, check the rankings, and see the display above——

【Ranking of Prosperity of All Territories in City S】

1. Lingyun Town, 6588

2. Linden Town, 4644

3. Huaishu Town, 4504

The specific buildings that the territory has unlocked, and the atmosphere and environment, seem to have little effect. But in fact, all these minutiae will have a long-term impact on the development of the territory.

With so many living places in the city, why do powerful players move? It’s not uncomfortable to live!

Changed countless times, until you find the one that suits your heart best, you can settle down and settle down for a long time.

When Yunling turned to the end, his heart was tense-there were no more than 200 territories in S City, but now only 136 are left.

In other words, one-third of the territory has been breached.

Yun Ling sighed heavily, “It’s really hard to live.”

The melancholy was only for a moment.

After a while, Yun Ling got up and said, “Sunset Village was breached, and all the players were scattered. Should no one take any of the surrounding resource points? It just so happens that Lingyun Town has a large number of players living in it, and the resources are not enough. You can expand the scope of activities in the future.”

“There is not much time to spawn mobs, it is difficult to upgrade, and there are not many people who have the ability to go outside.”

“It’s possible for the NPC to lead the gathering squad over there, it’s a treasure house!”

After thinking about it, a new way to fill the warehouse was immediately available.

**

Just after 7:40, the system prompt appeared, [“Carpenter A” has enough proficiency, and the life skill “Elementary Woodcraft” has been upgraded to “Intermediate Woodcraft”. 】

“Upgraded?” Yunling glanced, then clicked to close after reading.

It’s hard to get the manpower together. Today is the day to lead the team out.

So early in the morning, Yunling had breakfast and began to prepare for the trip.

In ordinary territories, life players are scarce, and shading equipment such as hats and bamboo umbrellas are not common.

Last time I went out with ten hats. What I was fighting was the idea of bartering for rare materials. Unexpectedly, the players in Sunset Village have no idea of fair trade.

It depends on who is good, not how to show sincerity and facilitating transactions, but how to rob enough to be concealed enough to explode equipment in one go…

Going back to Wanxia Village this time, I don’t know what kind of people I will meet. In short, take the hat first, and I’ll talk about whether you can do business at that time.

8 o’clock.

The guards led the team to collect, while Yunling took 6 NPCs to Wanxia Village.

Wandering forward, encountering monsters to kill easily, the team marches fast.

There is no cloud in the sky, and there is no wind on the road. Occasionally passing by the dense woods, the tree canopy can act as a shelter and cast a cool shadow.

But as the expedition progressed, the trees became scarcer. The huge sun hung high in the sky, almost scorching the green plants.

At this moment, Yunling could only be fortunate that he was the tank positioning, and the whole team had a little bit of strength, and it was not greatly affected by the environment.

If this was a mage, he would have been tired and lay down.

Wearing a hat is useless, and sun-shading equipment can delay the process of tiredness, but can’t completely suppress it.

Seeing that the NPCs were developing negative states one after another, they didn’t say a word and insisted on moving forward. Yun Ling sighed, “It just so happens that there is a river and a small forest here. Let’s sit down and rest.”

Only then did the NPC find a cool place to sit down, drink water and rest.

Yunling walked to the river to fill the water, but turned around and was startled, “Why is someone lying there?!”

The NPC suddenly stood up, surrounded and protected Yunling, his face was full of guard.

Yun Ling didn’t care, “You stay here, I will take a look.”

I took a closer look and found that he was a middle-aged man. In his forties, his face was pale, and his forehead was sweating.

“This is heatstroke, right?” Yunling whispered directly.

She beckoned, motioned to the NPC to come and help, then moved the person to the shade of the tree, fed water again, and used cold water to cool her face.

Xu is the first aid measures taken effect, the middle-aged man wakes up slowly and asks weakly, “Where is this?”

“By the river, I saw you fainted, so I moved you over.” Yun Ling explained briefly.

See the system prompt, [Because of excessive exercise in the scorching sun, you have heat stroke, strength-3, agility-3, stamina-3, intelligence-3, spirit-3. 】

[The basic recovery speed is changed to: 1 point of health/5 minutes, 1 point of mana/5 minutes. 】

【Stay for 2 hours (avoid direct sunlight and not work for 2 hours) can restore health. 】

The middle-aged man felt scared for a while.

His condition is not too good!

If the ones passing by are not kind players, but game mobs…

He felt a chill and didn’t dare to think about it.

“Thank you for saving me.” The middle-aged man looked at Yunling eagerly, and unconsciously brought a silk beg when he spoke, “Can you sit down and stay with me for a while? With the current situation, there is really no way to act alone…”

If possible, he doesn’t want to bother others. He just didn’t give up this face, he was afraid that his life would be lost.

So thinking about it, middle-aged people can only bite the bullet and ask for help.

A few years later

Youth: What did I say! ! The truth is clearly in the hands of a few people!

**

Yunling: Our goal is –

NPC: Fill in with game materials! Full! warehouse! Library!

**

Statement 1: Hiding the identity of the lord is the same as a woman disguised as a man. It may be suspected and will never be discovered unless the protagonist takes the initiative to make it clear.

Statement 2: I am busy updating 6000 every day, and I have no rest time. When I met dozens of people repeatedly asking “Why not add updates” and “Where are the normal updates”, I was really tired, and I clearly wrote words and copywriting. Some questions are no longer answered, and I am too busy.

If reading reviews makes me feel tired, I will give up reading reviews/re-evaluations when necessary, leaving all the time for codewords.

I wish you all a happy follow-up, huh~
