Chapter 77: Chapter 77 The Transactions of High-End Players Are Just That Simple
"Uh, did I see something wrong? Did you guys see it? Lin Yue actually grew some vegetables?"
"Terrifying indeed!"
"While he’s eating and drinking, we’re starving and thirsty. Just as we finally get to eat and drink, he’s growing vegetables again... But, I think I want that wine more."
"Hey upstairs, you’re talking as if you have gasoline."
"Damn, I want to trade 20 no, 50 Iron Blocks for a portion of Chinese cabbage. I’m a vegetarian, and I’m about to reach my limit, boohoo..."
"Speaking of which, what does Lin need gasoline for? Did he get a car?"
"Even if he has a car, there needs to be a road, right? Probably it’s for something else? He can’t possibly be making a gasoline generator, can he? Haha."
"Dream on, a gasoline generator? If I had wine and vegetables, I’d definitely trade for stronger weapons or something. What’s the point of generating electricity?"
"Exactly, even if I had a generator, there’s nothing to use the electricity for. The things I got from the Secret Realm are all junk, nothing usable at all."
"Wow, I see some big shots in action, I’m not going to mention each one, but I just want to ask where on earth are you getting gasoline from?"
"High-end player trades, all we can do is watch. Speaking of which, isn’t Lin Yue considering trading for something else? I have quite a few blueprints here."
"Damn it, I don’t have any gasoline! Can I take this lying down? I just learned some grappling techniques; Lin Yue, come here, I’ll pin you down to the ground in a second, you believe it or not?"
...
While waiting for bids, Lin Yue was watching the group’s water cooler chatting while planting more things in the Soilless Cultivation Kit.
The Soilless Cultivation Kit is basically a bunch of steel frames with many perforated plastic tubes. Fill them with nutrient solution and water, put the seeds on the trays, and wait for them to sprout; the vegetables will grow on their own.
He doesn’t quite know if this is how it’s done on Earth originally, but at least here the instructions indeed explained it like this.
This time Lin Yue didn’t scatter all the seeds at once; instead, he planned it out a bit.
First, vegetables seem to be quite popular in the group and in trades right now. In fact, within less than half an hour, vegetables have received a hundred bids whereas wine only sixty.
Moreover, their bids showed Lin Yue that gasoline doesn’t seem very valuable at this stage.
Just like they said, the general idea of what gasoline can be used for is limited to cars and engines.
Sure, the survivors are clever, but no one could guess he has quite a large amount of diverse appliances...
He does indeed have a car.
After planting all 3000 Chinese cabbage seeds, Lin Yue planted quite a few onions.
Onions are unique, as they can reproduce using bulb sets. Considering the growth speed of plants on the soilless cultivation kit, once onions are planted, they almost don’t need to be tended to anymore, and they’ll infinitely reproduce.
Besides their strong flavor, these nutrient-rich vegetables hardly have any weaknesses.
In the future, they can even be considered a hard currency for long-term planning.
As for strawberries and watermelons, Lin Yue only planted a little bit.
Vegetables are still the priority for now, if later he can find more soilless cultivation kits, he can multiply them then.
Moreover, the Survival Points Mall still sells seeds.
He poured the humus soil obtained from Cork Brown into a wooden planting box.
On closer inspection, the soil seems to perfectly cover a planting box.
Could humus soil also have some sort of high-tech feature?
With this question, Lin Yue placed the seeds of Devil’s Pepper into the soil and added a bit of water.
With these tasks completed, Lin Yue thought he could look at the bids now.
By this time, the sky had grown dim, the intense sunlight softened significantly, and Lin Yue returned to the Shelter from the hot and humid greenhouse.
He sprawled out on the bed, relaxing his body in a long-awaited manner.
Since yesterday’s trip to the Secret Realm until now, he had been working like a machine without rest.
Whether it be exploring the Secret Realm, dealing with raider attacks upon returning, opening chests, or using the Soilless Cultivation Kit, he’s been busy non-stop.
Were it not for the many tasks left undone, Lin Yue would have loved to just fall asleep right then.
Lin Yue opened the trading panel and looked at the bids.
"Oh my, did someone go to the Secret Realm and find an oil depot or something, how come there’s so much?"
Lin Yue was amazed to see one person wanted to buy all the wine and vegetables, and their bid reached a staggering 40 liters!
No one else’s bid was higher than this person’s!
Lin Yue had calculated that one hour of power generation with his gasoline generator would require about 3 liters of fuel. If he accepted this person’s bid...
Then he’d have thirteen hours to enjoy a modernized life with electricity!
There seems to be no other choice for now...
Wait a minute.
No rush.
Why such haste?
Lin Yue almost pushed himself into a trap.
How long has it been since people started bidding? Just hold on, wait for them to increase the offer by themselves.
Self-strategy is such a wonderful thing.
After all, I’m the seller; I decide when to close the deal, don’t I?
Besides...
Lin Yue remembered something he’d been ignoring.
He walked over to the gasoline generator and picked up the connector.
How does this thing connect to appliances? It seems more necessary than just having a generator alone.
He does have two rolls of electrical wiring, but it seems he really needs to find a power strip.
A day later, a fresh wave of disasters is coming - earthquakes from magnitude 1 to 8!
If he rushes to enjoy powered living now, what will happen afterwards?
Will he connect all those appliances to the generator, and then one by one put them back when the earthquake comes...
Seems like it’ll be quite chaotic then.
Within a short time, Lin Yue thought over these matters and decided to put them off until tomorrow.
For now, he has more immediate tasks to handle.
Such as... ƒrēenovelkiss.com
"Squeak, squeak!" Bai was running around the room, seemingly hungry, and Lin Yue’s stomach had indeed been growling for quite some time.
"Got it, let’s recharge a bit, there are things to do tonight."
Lin Yue took out two packets of snail noodles he had won from the last Survival Points lottery, thought it over.
"Bai, how about having something special tonight?"
"Squeak?"
Set the pot to boil water, prepared a large bowl, cooked noodles in broth, and added condiments.
During the process, Bai suddenly caught a familiar scent, one reminiscent of its owner relieving himself outside the wall.
Its eyes lifelessly moved towards the door.
"Bai, I’m not cooking crap seriously, don’t run, trust me, once you try a bite, you won’t stop!"
"Squeak~!" Bai frantically scratched at the door, only to see its owner bringing the bowl closer, getting nearer...
