Chapter 4 Announcement of the Mist World
While thinking about it, Qi Yuan opened the "Mist Survival Manual".
At this time, the "World Chat Channel" was already busy.
6 hours of daytime and 18 hours of night.
Even if I sleep for 12 hours, I still have 6 hours left to do nothing in the cabin.
Today's wooden house can be said to have only four walls.
Besides a straw mat, a table, and an oil lamp, what else is there?
At most, there are trees cut down during the day.
How to spend the extra six or seven hours in the cabin?
World chat channel!
Surviving alone in a foggy world, thoughts of loneliness, fear, and panic will become more and more intense.
The existence of other survivors became everyone's last comfort.
Even Qi Yuan often checks the chat channel.
Chatting with sand sculpture netizens can greatly alleviate the loneliness of surviving in the fog.
The huge pressure of survival can also be released through chatting and joking.
Whether it's a "world chat channel" or a regional chat channel, or even a trading market.
All have been occupied by countless "netizens".
"I'm going to starve to death, who has anything to eat?"
"True! Internet beggars upstairs!"
"If we can't find food anymore, we will all become beggars!"
"You can't find food either? I thought it was just barren around me!"
"Who wouldn't be? It's all weeds at first glance!"
"Be content, this is a primeval forest! I couldn't find any food, and I stepped into a quagmire as soon as I exited."
"Hey, stop talking, I'm at the top of the mountain! Snow is starting to fall outside...it's so cold!"
"..."
"Are you all so miserable? I was born by the river, and I picked up a piece of potato after walking a few steps. It's so comfortable!"
"???"
"???"
"What??"
"Brother upstairs, go home and take a look!"
"What's wrong?"
"Your ancestral grave is on fire!"
"..."
"Speaking of which, can't everyone find something to eat nearby?"
"You are like this too? I thought I was the only one unlucky because I was born in a bad position."
"Cry to death! Brother Tudou sell me some water. I'm dying of thirst in the desert..."
"I don't have water either! I want it too!"
"I want it too. I'll trade wood with you!"
"+1"
"+1"
"+1"
"Gegege, I'll exchange my water for you and chat privately with photos and videos!"
"???"
"Is there a business here too?"
"Can you come to the door?"
"If you can come to the door, do you dare to open the door?"
"Uh... I don't dare!"
"Brother, you can just stick out the tool without opening the door!"
"Get lost!"
The building gradually became crooked, and even a hand could not hold it straight.
But most people are serious about trading.
Many people can find water sources nearby, but there are still a large number of people who, like Qi Yuan, have never even seen the shadow of water.
Water is the first need for the continuation of life.
So many people started trading fresh water.
But a problem arises at this time!
A container for water!
In the trading market, when the two parties reach a deal, the items will be sent to the other party's wooden house by the system.
Once the fresh water is delivered, if there is no container to hold it, it will be sprinkled directly on the ground.
This puts a lot of people in trouble.
The water buyer was depressed because he couldn't drink the water in front of him.
The water sellers are even more depressed. They have a lot of resources in front of them but cannot get them.
Let me say something here.
Questions about item manufacturing!
In wooden houses, only the upgrade of wooden houses can be completed directly through the system.
However, other tools cannot be directly synthesized.
For example, a cup cannot be made by adding materials.
The same goes for manuscripts. If you put a piece of stone or wood, it will become a manuscript.
You must have a manufacturing scroll to make items, otherwise you can only make them yourself.
The self-made tools not only have poor use effects, but also have no accompanying function: accelerating the maturity of plants similar to flower beds.
So in the future, the importance of making scrolls can be imagined.
This design also avoids making a lot of money in the early stage due to the advantages of birthplace.
At the same time, it greatly increases the difficulty of survival.
Faced with the dilemma of not having a cup, everyone can only find another way.
Use wood.
Make a hole in the wood to hold water.
Such a simple and rough method maintains the normal operation of freshwater trading.
Of course, some people discovered bamboo and made a fortune by selling bamboo tubes as containers.
"It would be great if there was a manufacturing scroll for disposable cups at this time." Qi Yuanba clicked his lips and couldn't help but sigh.
But this is also whimsical, and obtaining the scroll is inherently difficult.
What's more, even if you get it, you can't control the type of scroll.
In the trading market, various types of transactions emerge in endlessly.
It also caused all kinds of disputes and turmoil.
"Brother, how dark-hearted are you? One unit of wood for 20ml of water? I collect fifty or sixty units of wood a day, but in the end I can't even drink water?"
"Whether you want to buy it or not, the water is mine anyway, and there are plenty of people who will buy it. If you don't buy it, don't do it!"
"I'm sorry, no one wants to buy from you. There are quite a few people selling water!"
"Yes, let's boycott this kind of unscrupulous merchants together!"
"I saw someone exchange 300ml for a piece of wood before!"
Spontaneously formed trading markets are very unstable.
Either the price is too high or the price is too low.
But soon, the initial chaos was settled.
The price of fresh water also stabilized within a suitable range.
100ml of fresh water can be exchanged for one unit of wood.
This price is acceptable to most people.
Therefore, the trading market is generally stable at this price, and even if there are fluctuations, the difference will not be too large.
Fresh water is not a particularly scarce resource.
About 5%-6% of people can find water sources nearby.
As the exploration deepens in the future, many people will definitely be able to find water sources.
The price fluctuations of other resources besides fresh water are relatively large.
When Qi Yuan was looking for "blood and flesh essence" and "seeds", he saw many high-priced items.
"Half a carrot for 100 wood or 50 stones. The tooth marks are mine, not eaten by animals!"
"A pair of warm underwear for 100 stones, essential for resisting the cold wave!"
"Chair manufacturing scroll, 200 wood + 100 stones."
"999 cold medicine, one pack for various foods, basic resources! Stones first!"
"Cucumber seeds, 50 stones! You can chat privately!!"
"..."
The prices in today's trading market are extremely collapsed.
The prices of many items are much higher.
Under normal circumstances, more than four hours of work can be used in a six-hour day.
The harvested wood is at most 70 or 80.
This is still not enough to guarantee basic diet.
If the resources collected every day cannot meet the basic diet.
What's the point of resisting the cold wave?
It will soon be eliminated by the foggy world.
Qi Yuan has seen that the number of people in the area and the total number of survivors have changed a lot.
I don't know if they encountered wild beasts or some insurmountable difficulties.
It is obvious that the foggy world is not a comfortable world for retirement and farming. There are countless dangers hidden in the fog.
Qi Yuan looked through the chat channel and was interested in many things.
Especially the brother who was born by the river and picked up potatoes after walking a few steps.
"Potatoes..." Qi Yuan muttered to himself.
Potatoes are rhizomes and can be sown after cutting into small pieces.
The planting method is simple, easy to survive, and the yield is large.
Qi Yuan clicked on the private chat of this person named Zhou Ming.
In the chat channel, the real name will be displayed, and everyone's nickname is their own name.
Just like Qi Yuan, if you send a message in the chat channel, the nickname is Qi Yuan.
Qi Yuan: Hello, how many potatoes have you found? You can exchange them for stones. "
Qi Yuan simply sent a message without saying much.
He was worried that he would be charged too much if he appeared too anxious.
After waiting for two minutes, no one responded, probably because there were too many messages and he didn't have time to reply.
Qi Yuan then went to the trading market.
With 163 stones, he was considered a wealthy family.
Nowadays, wood has become the basic currency in the contact market.
Because there were only axes on the first day, they could only cut trees, and most people only had wood.
And the quantity was not large, generally around 60 or 70.
Some people also made their own drafts and mined some stones, but the quantity was very small.
The mining efficiency of homemade drafts was very low and they were very easy to damage.
Qi Yuan considered the price in the contact market and was thinking about what ratio to purchase wood.
1:2 ?
1:3?
Maybe the cabin can be upgraded to level 2 tonight.
Just then, an announcement appeared on everyone's "Mist Survival Manual".
[Mist Announcement:
Congratulations on surviving the first day.
But this is just the beginning. The cold wave is approaching. Please store supplies and keep warm.
On the first day, many people have received the gift of the mist world, the resource box!
Today's resource box acquisition rate is:
Wooden resource box: 1.286%
Bronze resource box: 0.00142%
The following is a temporary task. Those who complete the cabin upgrade on the first day will receive a novice survival gift pack! ]
As soon as the announcement came out, the entire chat channel was boiling.
"What resource box? Why don't I know about it."
"I didn't see it either! What did I miss?"
"This is a rare resource that is randomly refreshed!
"If I had known I wouldn't rush to cut down trees today, maybe I could find a resource box if I walked around more!"
"Has anyone got it?!"
"There must be a lot of people who have gotten it. I just saw someone showing off in the chat channel!"
"Yeah, I even scolded him, but I didn't expect it to be true!"
"Hahaha, I asked you to scold me! Now you believe it! Come on, there's still half a piece of bread left from the wooden resource box. Exchange it for 20 stones. Don't wait until it expires!"
"Don't be silly. No one has many stones in their hands without a manuscript to mine!"
"By the way, you should be able to get it in the resource box. Props like manuscripts, right? "
"Yes, yes! Although only a few percent of people picked up resource boxes, the total number of people is too large!"
"7 billion people, 1.286% means more than 90 million people got wooden resource boxes, 0.00142%... well, I can't calculate it!"
"0.00142% should be less than 100,000"
"Awesome!"
"666!"
"I didn't expect there were so many hidden lucky ones!"
"Alas! I wanted to make a fortune quietly, but I didn't expect to be discovered by everyone, hahahahahaha!"
"It's just a small wooden resource box, not worth mentioning! Don't be too envious, hahaha!"
"It's just a small bronze resource box, not worth mentioning! Don't be too envious, hahaha!"
Seeing more and more resource box winners appear, Qi Yuan couldn't help but sigh:
Although the proportion is not large, with a huge population base, there are many people who are lucky enough to get resource boxes.
However, people like me who have two resource boxes must be rare!
"Big guys, what's in the resource box? Show us!"
"Yes, there are some good things!"
"They are hiding it, and they don't know how to share it!"
Not long after, information about several items appeared in the public chat screen.
Even Qi Yuan couldn't help but take a breath after seeing it!
"What kind of shit luck did these animals have!!!"
