Panda Novel
Among the items he needed to purchase, the first thing that came to Su Mo's mind was cloth.
Currently, cloth was not that needed in the shelter. They used straw mats made of plant fibers to wash and scrub the pots.
Taking into account that in case there was water leakage at the base, stopping up the holes with cloths was also a reliable choice.
There was a large stock of cloth in the trading market. Be it old clothes up for sale or those from treasure chests. There was a bunch of them.
"Just buy two wiping cloths and some ordinary cloth to stop up the hole."
A transaction cost 50ml of psychic energy water. They purchased two wiping cloths—one grey and one dark blue and a head-sized cloth.
"Now that we have the cloth, then it's all sorts of resources next..."
Just as Su Mo was about to continue checking, a private message danced in the bottom right corner.
It was a message from Chen Pingan, who previously sold him the Monster Illustration Handbook.
They automatically added each other as friends by default after the transaction, so Su Mo could see the message alert when he opened the game panel.
Chen Pingan: [The Almighty Su, do you want composite nylon? I happen to have one.]
Su Mo: [Yes! Do you want food or water? I can cook the food now!]
Su Mo was happy to see the words "composite nylon".
By evening, he still had no news for the composite nylon he asked for in the trading market, who knew Chen Pingan had it.
"Looks like he's a good fighter. You can't find it in the wild."
1
Su Mo thought to himself.
Having transmigrated to this wasteland, Chen Pingan was the first to take down the rare item Monster Illustration Handbook, whether through luck or force. He was not to be underestimated.
According to the exchange frequency, Chen Pingan probably led a good life over there. At least with his combat abilities, he would not die before any massive disaster happened.
Chen Pingan: [I want water. Psychic energy water. One composite nylon for 500ml of water. Is that okay?]
Su Mo: [Sure!]
Chen Pingan: [Holy shit... That's so scary, bro. Don't you even haggle?]
There were many trolls the last time Monster Illustration Handbook and pear were on sale on the trading channel.
Thousands were asking for a massive discount, not to mention those asking for a small discount.
Someone even said, "Give me some face. Can you give me the Monster Illustration Handbook?"
Therefore, Chen Pingan deliberately quoted a high price in the transaction this time, but unexpectedly...
Su Mo: [You can back out, but our deal is over from now on. I'll block you.]
1
Su Mo knew one basic rule when dealing with people like this...
Principle.
It was also something he learned during shopping.
Whether people bought the same vegetable at the same price in the market, they always wanted to ask for some discounts to see if they could lower the price.
However, if you put them on sale in the supermarket, no one could bargain. They could only pack them up and took them away.
Even if the former was successful, they could be slightly uncomfortable in retrospect because the buyer never knew where the seller's bottom line was.
The latter did not slash the price, but thinking everyone was paying with this price, they could not feel how much they were losing.
If Su Mo had agreed to Chen Pingan's price increase now, the idea that he had no bottom-line would have been planted in his mind.
1
Their future transactions might not be as smooth as it was now!
Chen Pingan: [The Almighty Su. No, I'm just joking. You're my bro. Don't be mad at me! 500ml is fine. I desperately need psychic energy water to keep myself alive. The wilderness is too dangerous. There are monsters everywhere.]
1
Su Mo: [You've been out exploring?]
Chen Pingan: [Yeah, I chose the shelter on the ground and can only survive on the resources I looted from the map. Each monster in this wasteland is more ferocious than the last. I can only hope that there won't be any biological mutations in future disasters, or else... it would be a disaster for humanity.]
2
Su Mo was a little curious about Chen Pingan's message.
Suppressing the urge to ask Chen Pingan about the wilderness' environment, Su Mo sealed the deal and appointed the buyer as Chen Pingan.
He successfully exchanged rare composite nylon with 500ml psychic energy water.
During the short time they transacted, water prices were still plummeting.
Even the price of food was falling. By contrast, minerals that were usually cheap were slowly increasing in value.
The upward and downward trend of the market seemed like an invisible hand, controlling the fate of the human in the wasteland.
Su Mo was silent.
He could figure out the reason for this development.
However, with the bitterness in his mouth, how could he tell the harsh truth?
It was not that all humans transmigrated into the wasteland were not lacking water or food.
The real reason was...
Those who failed to survive the early stages and were incapable of getting steady access to water and food in the wilderness...
Were dead!
It was now the fourth night of the Doomsday calendar. After four days, the people who had no access to water had fallen on the wasteland forever.
Without a specific number, Su Mo could not figure out how many were there.
2
He could only speculate the shared future of humans from current market prices.
On the trading channel, Su Mo took matters into his own hands and began retrieving materials after watching the market fluctuate more and more wildly.
He was mainly retrieving materials for the development of the base. He tried to collect highly accessible materials such as iron and copper as much as possible.
"Oreo, go keep watch. I'm going to make dinner."
He told the silly dog. Oreo rushed to the door and squatted obediently after receiving the order.
1
Stone doors could not block out smells.
4
Oreo was as useful as the Monster Illustration Handbook in this environment.
Carefully scrubbing the iron pot with a wiping cloth, Su Mo poured 600ml of water into the pot and added the Dalieba bread as per the recipe from this morning.
As the heat increased, the water began to boil.
He added seasoning and vegetable packets.
Two bowls of hot bread soup were ready.
By the end of dinner, the wasteland was already dark, leaving only the warmth of the shelter in the wilderness.
He had retrieved almost all the iron and copper he hung for purchase before dinner.
He was lucky.
Most people had not reached Su Mo's level and had not realized the importance of hoarding basic resources.
1
Unfortunately, no one had chosen to sell ordinary nylon yet.
Just when Su Mo thought he could not receive ordinary nylon today, the 100ml he hung for sale on the trading channel was instantly sold twice, and he got two nylons.
1
Thus, he had all the materials needed for Hunting Composite Crossbow!
"We've got everything!"
1
Su Mo was delighted and opened the creation page.
At this point, in the weapon tab of the creation page, the blueprint for Hunting Composite Crossbow had been lit up. The hammer symbol behind it was a sign he could create it!
He clicked on the blueprint with his mind.
He chose to create Hunting Composite Crossbow and five matching crossbow arrows.
1
Creation confirmed!
The little hammer clanked on the blueprint, and the materials in inventory faded away.
The iron turned into molten iron and began to pour into the crossbow mold. The coppers rose from the ground and began changing in elasticity from their standard square shape.
The two nylons were stretched straight, and the composite nylon was pulled back and forth before being snapped tight on the crossbow.
[Record]: You lost wood-10, iron-9, copper-4, nylon-2, composite nylon-1.
1
[Record]: You have gained Hunting Composite Crossbow.
[Record]: You have gained crossbow arrows*5.
1
He watched the progress bar complete.
Suddenly, a crossbow glittering with cold light from one glance was added to the inventory.
He focused!
A beautiful, seemingly heaven-made crossbow appeared in Su Mo's right hand, and five perfect crossbow arrows that seemed to have been copied from a mold appeared on the floor.
"Damn, though the structure's crude, it's not bad at all in terms of precision."
1
Su Mo was shocked as he took a closer look at the structure of the crossbow.
