Extreme Night Wilderness Survival Thanks, Floor

Wang Yu didn't go down into the Shelter. He had been busy all morning, and it was already noon.

It was time for lunch.

Wang Yu went down outside the Shelter. A fire had already been started in the Fire Basin beneath the giant rock.

Sitting by the Fire Basin, Wang Yu began to prepare lunch. He would eat grilled rabbit meat for lunch.

While grilling the meat, Wang Yu used an Entrenching Tool to scoop water from the Tin Bucket and placed it on the Fire Pit to boil.

It was still most convenient to boil water using an Entrenching Tool.

The rabbit meat was grilled. As Wang Yu was eating the grilled meat, he suddenly received a message.

Wang Yu opened it and saw it was from Zhang Dahai.

Zhang Dahai was the Player (he) from whom he had exchanged three Traps for a Crossbow.

This Player (he) had said he could fish and had chosen a Fishing Net at the start. Wang Yu had originally wanted to trade for his Fishing Net but failed to do so, eventually exchanging for a Crossbow.

[Zhang Dahai: Brother, you there?]

[Wang Yu: I'm here. What's up?]

At this moment, Wang Yu received a trade request. Wang Yu opened it.

[Player Zhang Dahai has initiated a trade request with you: Grass Carp 580g.]

Wang Yu: "?"

He didn't understand.

[Wang Yu: What do you mean by this trade?]

[Zhang Dahai: It's a gift for you. Please accept it.]

[Wang Yu: A gift for me? Did you find a place to fish?]

Wang Yu suddenly remembered the other party saying he would repay him if he found a place to fish.

[Zhang Dahai: I spent two days and finally found a place with fish.

This is also thanks to the Traps you exchanged. When I slept on the first night, I caught some Prey with the Traps, which allowed me to last for two days.

Today I caught fish. This fish is a thank-you gift for you.]

Wang Yu understood the reason.

He hadn't expected the other party to actually send him a fish.

In this extreme survival situation, every bit of food is precious. Many players are crying and complaining in the [Chat Channel] from hunger, and this person is actually going to give him a fish.

Wang Yu looked at the fish and of course, he accepted it. Food was too important to him right now.

So, Wang Yu took out 200g * 3 of rabbit meat and put it up for trade with the other person.

Zhang Dahai saw the rabbit meat Wang Yu put up.

[Zhang Dahai: Brother, this fish is a gift for you, I don't want your rabbit meat.]

[Wang Yu: Please take it. Everyone is short on food right now. I like eating fish. If you catch fish in the future, trade with me. I'll give you an equal weight of meat in exchange. That way, neither of us loses out.]

[Zhang Dahai: Alright, since you put it that way, I'll accept the rabbit meat. If you like fish, I'll trade with you when I catch some in the future.]

[Wang Yu: Okay.]

After clicking confirm, Wang Yu held a fish in his hand, weighing 580g, a little over a pound.

Wang Yu was overjoyed.

This fish, over a pound, would be several pounds if the quantity was increased with the dice. He had made a huge profit.

He gave Zhang Dahai 600g of rabbit meat after careful consideration. He couldn't take advantage of others for no reason.

Another reason was that he wanted to build a better relationship with Zhang Dahai.

It was likely true that Zhang Dahai could catch fish, otherwise, he wouldn't have generously given one away. It was clear that the other person had a surplus of fish.

Therefore, Wang Yu wanted to foster a good relationship with him. If Zhang Dahai could trade him a fish every day, he would profit every day.

With this unexpected gain, Wang Yu continued to eat roasted rabbit. He had six portions of rabbit meat. He had eaten two portions for breakfast and lunch, traded three portions to Zhang Dahai, and only had one portion left.

After lunch, Wang Yu drank several cups of boiling water. It was already past one in the afternoon.

After resting well.

Wang Yu climbed up the gap in the giant rock, picked up the wooden ladder, and descended into the shelter using the ladder.

Inside, there were already five carbonized large logs and two large wooden planks with one end carbonized.

First, Wang Yu inserted the two large wooden planks with one end carbonized into the pre-dug 30-centimeter deep pits. Then, he filled the pits with soil. The large wooden planks were 3.04 meters long, so two wooden pillars, 2.7 meters high, were now in place against the stone wall.

After setting up the two wooden pillars, Wang Yu didn't pay them any further attention.

On the ground next to the two wooden pillars, Wang Yu placed two carbonized large logs separately.

The large logs were 5.45 meters long, while the giant rock wall was 5.3 meters long. However, there were gaps at both ends of the stone wall. The 5.45-meter long large logs were slightly longer.

Wang Yu took out the large wooden mallet he had prepared earlier and struck the protruding end of the large log until it lay flat and was wedged between the two stone walls.

After placing two large logs on the ground, there were three more carbonized large logs. Wang Yu also laid them down on the ground, wedging them tightly between the two giant stones.

This way, there were five carbonized large logs wedged on the ground.

These large logs were used by Wang Yu for moisture-proofing. Building a shelter required safety, moisture-proofing, cold protection, and waterproofing; none could be omitted for comfort.

Cedar wood that had undergone carbonization would not rot for many years on the ground, and it could isolate the dampness of the shelter's floor.

After placing the five large logs on the ground, Wang Yu climbed onto the giant stones. He collected four tin buckets of thick moss.

After descending into the stone wall, Wang Yu spread the moss in the gaps between the five cedar logs on the ground.

Only after spreading a thick layer of moss on the ground did Wang Yu stop. This spread moss was the insulation layer for cold protection on the shelter's floor.

Subsequently, Wang Yu climbed onto the giant stones again. He lowered the large wooden planks one by one from the top of the giant stones.

A bundle of lumber contained eighteen large wooden planks. Four bundles of lumber meant seventy-two large wooden planks. Wang Yu placed twenty-seven large wooden planks from the logs in one go.

Then Wang Yu descended into the shelter and laid the large wooden planks on the ground one by one.

The large wooden planks were 3.04 meters long, and the distance between the two stone walls was about 3 meters, with an extra 4 centimeters.

The extra 4 centimeters were intentional. There were some uneven parts on the stone walls, and the extra 4 centimeters allowed the large wooden planks to be wedged tightly between the giant stones.

While laying the large wooden planks, Wang Yu used the 'Measuring Tool' to measure the length between the two stone walls. If the large wooden planks were too long, Wang Yu would use the 'Small Hacksaw' to saw off one or two centimeters.

In short, all these large wooden planks had to be wedged tightly between the stone walls. If the large wooden planks were not wedged tightly, his future life would be very inconvenient.

The large wooden planks were laid one after another on the ground, leaving no gaps between them.

After twenty-seven large wooden planks were laid, the ground inside the stone walls was completely covered with wooden flooring.

Wang Yu jumped on the wooden flooring. The wooden flooring didn't move at all. The large wooden planks were wedged very tightly between the stone walls. Ten-centimeter-thick cedar wood could not possibly vibrate.

Actually, five centimeters of wood thickness would have been enough, but Wang Yu, for the sake of the floor's 'solidity', directly used ten-centimeter-thick large wooden planks.

After finishing the wooden flooring, Wang Yu checked the time. It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon. He could now use the dice to increase the quantity of items.

Besides a portion of rabbit meat (200g) and water snail meat (10g * 50), he had no other meat. Wang Yu decided to increase the quantity of food.
