They have everything...
They have everything!
If these goods weren't sourced from the city, Chen San would have cut off his head and used it as a football for Liu Family Village!
Song Xiaozhu had just finished breakfast when she heard that Chen San had arrived, so she didn't rush to the Earth Temple.
She walked in front, followed by Qiu Shuyu and Xiao Tong — Xiao Tong had volunteered and brought the same bow and arrows as Qiu Shuyu, standing on either side of Song Xiaozhu behind her.
Song Xiaozhu greeted Chen San with a smile.
Chen San felt a chill run down his spine from being addressed as "Third Master" by her, and kept saying, "No, no, I wouldn't dare," before quickly adding, "This is a small token of the district chief's appreciation; please accept it, Miss Song."
Song Xiaozhu nodded and looked at Old Chen's family.
Old Chen was moved to tears, and Chen Quanquan rushed to his parents and sister, the whole family weeping together.
Chen San felt even more embarrassed, and his voice trembled as he spoke, "The district chief didn't make things difficult for Old Chen. After learning that he was someone you could use, he immediately instructed me to send them over properly."
Song Xiaozhu: "Thank you for your trouble."
A thin layer of sweat appeared on Chen San's forehead; he was already considering backing out when Song Xiaozhu spoke up, " District Chief Hu wants to order bows and arrows?"
Chen San: "!"
He thought the whole thing was off, but to his surprise, Song Xiaozhu brought it up herself.
Tian Man handed the drafted contract to Chen San: "Third Master, here's the contract. If you think it's okay, you can sign it directly. We have enough goods here; you can just take them back."
Chen San was stunned for a while before he reacted. "Okay, okay."
He had never felt so awkward, nor so surprised... or rather, so delighted, in his entire life.
He stared intently at the contract, initially expecting it to be full of unfair terms, but to his surprise, not only was the price fair, but it also indicated an intention for long-term cooperation. The only issue was the order volume...
Chen San swallowed hard. "Are there only three of these special arrowheads?"
Song Xiaozhu took out these three items because the situation at the Garbage Mountain was unclear. She had no intention of provoking Old Madam Hu. Rather than fighting amongst themselves, they were currently facing the surging beast tide that would follow the disappearance of the isolation zone.
Otherwise, she wouldn't sell a single one.
What a joke! This thing costs Quantum Coin, and each one is precious. She's dirt poor right now!
Song Xiaozhu, of course, wouldn't say any of that. She said gently, "These special arrowheads were prioritized for the Guard Team." The implication was that you could buy them after everyone in the village had one.
If this had happened in the past, Chen San would have been furious.
How could he dare to be angry at this point?
He feared that everyone in Liu Family Village would have a special arrowhead, which would freeze them in place and then hack them to death.
Chen San smiled and said against his will, "Then... then we'll wait for Song Xiaozhu's good news."
Song Xiaozhu nodded.
The contract went surprisingly smoothly, yielding not only cash and supplies, but also a substantial amount of Transaction Value and mission progress.
For Song Xiaozhu, it was a win-win situation—well, she didn't care about the cash or the supplies.
Over the next few days, Song Xiaozhu was busy making steel knives.
The order for 10,000 items was quickly placed, and after she successfully delivered the goods, the Transaction Value surged by 8,000 points.
They also completed Growth Quest 7 and earned 20 Quantum Coin.
It was still early, so Song Xiaozhu said, "Let's call it a day for now. I'm going to rest for a bit."
Everyone naturally nodded in agreement.
If Song Xiaozhu doesn't take a break soon, they'll all be exhausted.
The people who made it aren't exhausted, but those responsible for the subsequent sorting and organization are practically collapsing from exhaustion!
With a full 100 Quantum Coin in her pocket, Song Xiaozhu happily returned to her room. After closing the door behind her, she summoned her Workbench.
In recent days, she has received various other Transaction Value, plus the 30 Quantum Coins she received as a reward from Liu Xuangang's " Revered Like the Big Dipper," and after deducting the cost of making 10 special arrows, she now has 128 Quantum Coin.
huge sum of money!
A truly huge sum of money!
Song Xiaozhu's small boxes were stockpiled with [ Iron Raw Material ], and she could upgrade both small boxes into sturdy large boxes in no time.
But Song Xiaozhu didn't rush to synthesize it; instead, she carefully sorted it out.
If she has two Sturdy Storage Box, that should be enough for her to stockpile all kinds of Raw Material. As for finished products, there's no need for them to take up space. As long as she has enough Raw Material, she can quickly produce a large number of medicines, tools, and weapons.
So, use 50 Quantum Coin to upgrade the small box.
As for the remaining 78 coins, Song Xiaozhu wanted to keep them a little longer.
She has already collected 8 Energy Stone, and estimates that she will be able to collect 10 by tomorrow— the Awakening Stone in the Earth Temple are more than she expected.
Once she has collected 10 Awakening Stone, she will discuss with Liu Xuangang and Xiao Yunjie how to dispose of them. It seems more worthwhile to keep them in the village than to hand them over to Fan Cang.
They dug up the Earth Temple and broke through the safety barrier, but Fan Cang didn't care about their lives.
Since that's the case, why not just break off all pretense of civility?
The Repair Quest is stuck at three key points:
One is the Repair Points, which requires killing the Polluted Beast;
The second one is yellow [ Medicinal Raw Material ]. Song Xiaozhu has been asking Qiu Shuyu to keep an eye out for it these days, but she has tried many times without producing any yellow [ Medicinal Raw Material ]. Song Xiaozhu couldn't help but boldly guess that this thing might be outside the isolation zone.
The third is animal hide. Without animal hide, you can't craft armor, and therefore can't unlock all crafting materials. And animal hide... obviously, also requires Polluted Beast.
Song Xiaozhu had a plan in mind: to repair the Synthesizer to level three, she could only wait for the Polluted Beast.
Ideally, as soon as the isolation zone breaks, she should immediately kill 10 Polluted Beast and upgrade the Synthesizer to level 3 as quickly as possible.
The Synthesizer at level 3 and above will definitely have more advanced recipes, which will require Quantum Coin to unlock.
These advanced formulas were key to their ability to withstand the beast tide.
Song Xiaozhu resisted the temptation and did not squander her Quantum Coin at the Random Synthesis.
She wants to save it.
