Han Xing excitedly rubbed his hands together, his voice trembling, "How long will these materials last me, and how much equipment can I make?"

To date, he had exchanged a total of 1,052 Spirit Cores, 4,362 units of Rare Earth, 3,742 units of Fine Iron, 5,763 units of Aether, 3 Skill Books, 5 unopened Bronze Treasure Chests, 32 unopened Wooden Crates, 7 green equipment blueprints, and thousands of other miscellaneous materials.

And all Han Xing had given up was 37 liters of Spirit Spring Water...

And his remaining Spirit Spring Water reserves were 1,502 liters.

He hadn't even used up a fraction of it...

"Is this the benefit of a monopoly? It's so awesome!" Han Xing exclaimed.

Right now, he was the only one in District 107 selling large quantities of water, with no competition at all.

If this continued, Han Xing could even concentrate the entire harvest of nearly ten thousand people in the 107 channel into his own hands over these two days.

It was as if they were all working for Han Xing for the past two days.

Looking at the ever-growing pile of materials on the ground, Han Xing paused to think, then temporarily removed the Spirit Spring Water consignment information.

The feverish activity in the consignment channel came to an abrupt halt after ten minutes.

Those survivors who were still waiting to trade were suddenly dumbfounded.

"What's going on? Why was it suddenly taken down?"

"@Xinghe, Boss, did he run out of water? I haven't gotten any yet!"

"@Xinghe, bro, what happened? Tell us, little brother's scared..."

Many people were frantically @ing Han Xing in the chat channel, but Han Xing was busy organizing his territory and didn't have time to check the messages.

Han Xing didn't respond, and the group became even more panicked.

Especially those who were still observing, hesitating whether to trade the things in their hands, felt regret and wished they could slap themselves twice on the spot for missing such a great opportunity.

If Han Xing stopped selling, where would they get water?

"It's over... the pro didn't respond, he probably really sold out..."

"Damn, I thought his pricing was too high at first, not worth it, but now, I want to slap myself twice!"

"Me too..."

Those who didn't get any were heartbroken, while those who exchanged for Spirit Spring Water as soon as Han Xing put it up were secretly delighted, and also mocked them in the chat channel.

"Hahaha, a bunch of idiots, can materials and equipment compare to your own lives?"

"You can always go back and farm more equipment, but if you die, you're really dead!"

"That's right, and this Spirit Spring Water can restore injuries, it's like having an extra life in an emergency, it's a bargain no matter how you look at it!"

Listening to their taunts, the group of onlookers almost regretted their intestines out.

But some people were still unwilling to give up, and they tried to continue summoning Han Xing, hoping he could put up a little more Spirit Spring Water.

Misu: "@Xinghe, Great God, put up a little more, just a little, I swear I won't hesitate to buy it."

Three Peaks Mountain: "@Xinghe, bro, you are our savior, the entire District 107 is counting on you, sell some more water."

Tornado Potato: "@Xinghe, Dad!!!"

Yu Shi: "The guy upstairs is ruthless... @CyclonePotato."

Whirlwind Potato: "What about me? Now that someone is willing to sell water, they're my savior, my reborn parents! From now on, he's my Xinghe Daddy!"

Just then, a familiar name appeared in the chat channel.

Xinghe: "Ahem... what happened?"

Han Xing coughed awkwardly twice. Seeing Xinghe speak, the entire 107 channel paused for a moment.

Whirlwind Potato: "@Xinghe, Dad! Did I summon you?"

A Nascent Soul expert: "The Great God is finally here, please put up a little more Spirit Spring Water."

At this time, Han Xing flipped through the chat logs above and finally understood what was happening in the chat channel.

He said with a smile, "Everyone, don't worry, there is still Spirit Spring Water, I will put up another batch in a while."

Bean Sprout: "@Xinghe, you're a true god, I'm waiting for your Spirit Spring Water to save my life!"

Lost: "Great, I definitely won't hesitate this time!"

In the chat channel, many survivors breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of their hearts.

They originally thought that Han Xing's Spirit Spring Water was sold out, missing a great opportunity, but they didn't expect him to say that he still had some.

"Great God Xinghe, how much Spirit Spring Water do you have in reserve? Is the price still the same as before?"

Han Xing replied, "Don't worry about that, I will put up more Spirit Spring Water, but the trading conditions will change a bit."

Hearing Han Xing say this, the survivors in District 107's channel thought Han Xing was going to raise prices, and their hearts jumped into their throats.

Han Xing seemed to know their worries and said directly, "Don't worry, I'm not raising prices, just adding some exchange conditions. Anyone who has blueprints for furniture, houses, territory facilities, etc., can exchange them with me for Spirit Spring Water. The price is negotiable."

"By the way, anyone who has storage chests or storage chest blueprints can prioritize exchanging them with me for Spirit Spring Water now."

"A white-grade storage chest can be directly exchanged for 500 ml of Spirit Spring Water, and a blueprint can be exchanged for 2000 ml. A green-grade storage chest can be exchanged for 2000 ml of Spirit Spring Water, and a blueprint can be exchanged for 10000 ml!"

This was also the reason Han Xing clicked into the chat channel.

Now, there were too many materials piled up in his territory, and he needed to collect them with several storage chests.

Hearing the exorbitant rewards offered by Han Xing, many survivors were shocked.

You should know that the price Han Xing had previously set was that a Bronze Treasure Chest could only be exchanged for 500 ml of Spirit Spring Water, and even green equipment blueprints could only be exchanged for 300 ml.

Now, for a white-grade storage chest blueprint, he directly offered a high price of 2000 ml, and a green-grade one was 10000 ml!

Many people even wished they could conjure up a blueprint right now and trade it with Han Xing.

"Storage chest blueprint, who has one?"

"Hurry up, the great one needs it. Whoever has a storage chest or blueprint, quickly take it out."

In the chat channel, those people were afraid that Han Xing wouldn't be able to exchange for storage chest blueprints and wouldn't sell Spirit Spring Water, so they were anxious for him.

But the probability of this blueprint appearing seemed to be not high.

After all, storage chests were also space-type items like Space Backpacks, and had a larger capacity. The disadvantage was that they could not be carried and could only be stored in the territory.

Just then, a survivor named Cream Puff slowly said, "Storage chest blueprint, I seem to have one here, it's green-grade, is that... okay?"

Han Xing smiled and said, "Yes, let's trade."

He immediately sent a trade request to the other party, and the other party readily accepted.

Then, a system prompt appeared.

You have obtained Storage Chest Blueprint (Green), you have lost 10 liters of Spirit Spring Water.

The Spirit Spring Water reserve fell below 1500 liters, but for Han Xing, it was insignificant.

At this time, that Cream Puff excitedly said in the chat channel that he had exchanged it for a full 10000 ml of Spirit Spring Water, which made other survivors envious.

At this time, Han Xing said in the LAN, "Everyone, please be patient, I will put another batch of Spirit Spring Water on the shelves later, everyone can directly trade with me."

"Okay, great one, waiting for you!"

"@Xinghe, thank you, Xinghe, great one, you are the savior of our District 107..."

In the chat channel, facing the crowd's flattery, Han Xing smiled. Just as he was about to exit the chat channel, he suddenly saw a familiar name @ing him.

Lei Wei: "@Xinghe, what's wrong with you? Why was I directly rejected when I clicked to trade with you?"
