Chapter 2 - The Transaction at the Dinner

However, at this moment, Xiao Yi didn't need to worry about watering. With the robot gardener and the fully automatic intelligent irrigation system, everything was under control!

After planting the rice, Xiao Yi was covered in sweat. Holding a glass of A-grade purified water with ice, he returned to the front of the island monument.

At this time, Su Wan and the others had just completed their dinner transaction.

"You have several pigs?" Yuan Nong asked in surprise as soon as he noticed the sumptuous dishes after guiding the rice planting.

"No. A wild boar ran out of the forest. Wangcai and I dealt with it together. Otherwise, how could we have this big meal!" Xiao Yi replied with a smile.

"A wild boar!" Yuan Nong exclaimed in surprise. "I heard that wild boars are fierce. You should be careful when you encounter them!"

"Don't worry, Old Yuan. It's just a wild boar. I can handle it!" Xiao Yi said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'm going to enjoy this big meal!" Yuan Nong ended the call.

Su Wan and Jiang Yuntian sent messages almost at the same time.

"Did you go hunting in the forest again?" Su Wan asked worriedly. "Be careful not to get hurt!"

"This is wild boar meat. Be careful when you encounter wild boars!" Jiang Yuntian reminded. He had once confronted a wild boar head-on. Although he managed to win, he failed to keep the wild boar.

He knew very well how powerful wild boars were. As an ordinary person, Xiao Yi was probably in danger.

Of course, Xiao Yi had a dog named Wangcai. It was said to be very powerful. Maybe it was the dog that had done the trick!

Jiang Yuntian speculated in this way.

"Don't worry, everyone. With Wangcai's warning, I'm basically fine!" Xiao Yi replied to the two of them respectively.

From their words, Xiao Yi felt deep concern, and his heart was quite warm.

The two of them responded and then began to eat heartily.

After eating food without oil for more than ten consecutive days, the dishes stir-fried with lard now tasted especially delicious.

Su Wan almost swallowed her tongue.

After the meal, Su Wan touched her slightly protruding belly and said, "Oh, I'm going to gain weight again!"

Needless to say, even Jiang Yuntian's son, Junjun, almost finished his share.

Worried that he would get indigestion from eating too much, Jiang Yuntian put away the remaining food in advance.

Otherwise, Junjun might have been able to finish a whole portion!

"Now that we're full, we can start working!" Jiang Yuntian said. "Junjun, you stay on the island and don't go into the water. Got it?"

"Okay!" Junjun agreed.

Jiang Yuntian rowed the boat towards the nearest supply box.

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was no longer scorching.

On the public channel, everyone started to call for going out to work.

"Let's quickly fish for supply boxes while we can!"

"Yes, let's rush!"

"What's the point of rushing? The supply boxes around me were the closest to me at noon, but now I can't reach them at all!"

"Then you can only try your luck at fishing!"

Xiao Yi also went out and took Wangcai to open the six supply boxes at the entrance of the apartment one by one.

"Obtained supplies: Foundation Stone *2, Brick *4,..."

"Obtained supplies: Wood *6, Copper *3,..."

"Obtained supplies: Foundation Stone *1,..."

"Obtained supplies: Long Down Jacket *1,..."

...

There was still no water or food from the six supply boxes, which showed that the rate of water and food appearing this week was extremely low.

In total, four foundation stones were obtained, and the rest were all basic supplies. Only that long down jacket puzzled Xiao Yi.

"Getting a down jacket on a hot day. Are you kidding me?" The corners of Xiao Yi's mouth twitched, and then he hung the down jacket in the wardrobe of the bedroom.

When he returned to the front of the island monument, Su Wan happened to initiate a call.

"What's up?" Xiao Yi answered and asked.

"I just fished up a supply box. Guess what I got?" Su Wan said.

"S-grade fruit or an S-grade tool?" Xiao Yi asked.

Su Wan rolled her eyes. "Who's as abnormal as you, being able to get so many S-grade items!"

Xiao Yi felt helpless in his heart. "I haven't gotten that many S-grade items either. Most of them are rewards for daily check-ins!"

Seeing Xiao Yi's speechless expression, Su Wan continued, "I actually got this! [Down Quilt] *1." "Getting this useless thing on a hot day. How about giving it to you?"

As she spoke, Su Wan initiated a transaction: "[Foundation Stone] *2, [Down Quilt] *1, [Copper] *3, no transaction conditions."

After seeing Su Wan's transaction, Xiao Yi thought for a moment and refused the transaction. "You keep the down quilt for now!"

"Hmm?" Although Su Wan didn't know why Xiao Yi asked her to keep it, out of trust, she kept the down quilt and traded the other two items.

At this time, Jiang Yuntian and Yuan Nong sent messages at the same time.

"I actually got this, [Thermal Underwear] *1."

"Look at this, [Hand Warmer] *1."

At the same time, the public channel also became lively.

"Damn, what's going on with getting a down jacket?"

"I even got a windproof coat!"

"Can't be! I thought I was the only one who got winter supplies!"

Almost everyone who fished up supply boxes during the evening period got at least one warm item.

This was no longer a coincidence!

"Could it be that the world rules are giving benefits to the survivors?" Xiao Yi pondered to himself.

On the public channel, some people also noticed something strange.

"Do you think this means that the weather will get cold soon?"

As soon as this statement was made, the public channel was briefly silent, and then the discussion became even more heated.

"Very likely!"

"Don't we have to cherish these warming items? Once we lose them, where can we find substitutes in the cold winter?"

"That's true. Those who got these warm clothes are favored by fate!"

"Alas, I didn't get any. Who is willing to sell me one to solve my urgent need?"

"Too bad. I didn't even fish up a supply box. Please consider me first!"

"Transactions don't care about joy or sorrow. Only those who offer the highest price can get it!"

After browsing the conversations on the public channel, Xiao Yi immediately sent messages to Su Wan and the others.

"I'm sure you all know about this! This is also my speculation." Xiao Yi said, "Therefore, you must keep these warm clothes or items properly."

"Roger that!" The three of them replied in unison.

"Besides that thermal underwear, I also got other things." After saying that, Yuan Nong initiated a transaction.

"[Foundation Stone] *2, [Soil Improvement Talisman] *1, no transaction conditions."

"Old Yuan, I wonder if you came from a mysterious realm. You've gotten soil improvement talismans one after another!" Xiao Yi said in surprise as he looked at the card.

Yuan Nong smiled but didn't speak. He shook his head and said, "If I really came from a mysterious realm, I wouldn't have only fished up two or three supply boxes in the past few days. Maybe because I'm a farmer, this world keeps giving me soil improvement talismans to make me continue farming!"

"Haha, maybe so. Seeing that you're not farming, it keeps giving you these talismans. You'd better not farm anymore and let it give you more!" Xiao Yi said with a laugh.

Yuan Nong's soil improvement talisman came at the right time. Xiao Yi had just received some seeds from the trading hall.

Now he could plant them!

The previous three fields were already full of crops.

Xiao Yi used this soil improvement talisman beside the three fields, just forming the Chinese character "Tian" (field).

Then, he planted pakchoi, cucumbers, and eggplants.

Xiao Yi checked the corn he had dried in the morning. It was completely dry, so he took it to the workshop, ground it into powder with a stone mill, mixed it with chopped forage lettuce, and walked towards the chicken coop.

He put the food into the feeding trough, and the hen led a group of chicks to gather around. The rooster wisely stayed aside this time.

Seeing the rooster looking wronged, Xiao Yi smiled and scattered some unground corn kernels for it.

The rooster pecked at the food happily and clucked as it ate.

When he returned to the front of the island monument, Xiao Yi found that Jiang Yuntian had sent a transaction.

"[Foundation Stone] *3, [Iron] *4,... no transaction conditions."

In addition to the three foundation stones, there were also some basic supplies.

It could be seen that there was a difference in luck. Jiang Yuntian fished up three supply boxes today but only got three foundation stones.

While Su Wan only opened one but got two.

"It seems that everyone's luck is really different." Xiao Yi sighed.

After accepting Jiang Yuntian's transaction, Xiao Yi switched to the public channel.
