Chapter 7 Good Things Should Be Sold Slowly

At the thought of the fear brought by the danger of the universe, Jack had no mood to enjoy the delicious meal.

He immediately opened the transaction channel of the world channel and modified the content of the transaction link hanging just now.

He changed the "Sleeping bag" to "Steel".

After the accident, he found that there was something wrong with his way of living.

It was better to have a shelter than sleep comfortably in space.

Only a strong shelter could give him a reason to take root.

This was the most important task at the moment!

After revising the transaction content, Jack returned to the front of the meteorite and immediately found the rope that he had used to trade.

He simply tied the rope several times to the console, and then tied one end of the rope to his waist, and the other end to the base under the console.

With the experience of the accident just now, Jack might not be hit directly by the space trash.

But whether it was the aftershock or the brush just now, it was very likely to throw him away.

Therefore, it was safer to use this basic protective measure as soon as possible.

And a telescope!

Jack rummaged through the supplies and found a magnifying glass.

He took out a piece of wood, got through the center of the wood, fixed the magnifying glass at one end of the wood, and then put the magnifying glass in front of the console.

In this way, Jack could see any unknown danger further ahead and avoid it in advance.

All these were the basis of his survival, and he had to take them seriously.

After doing all this, Jack was relieved.

The next task was to build a shelter.

Jack counted.

There was still a difference between the shelter needed in space and those on earth.

In space, he needed to face anything falling from the sky at any time.

Besides, there was no need for ventilated buildings such as straw huts or wooden houses.

It was similar to a low cave on earth. The stronger the outer layer was, the safer it would be.

As for the size of the space, Jack didn't think it needed to be considered too much for the time being.

Therefore, he walked around the meteorite and finally stopped at a suitable place.

He decided to build a temporary shelter here.

Jack looked around.

This place was located in the middle of the meteorite, and it happened to be a groove, next to a circle of fractured rock stratum.

It perfectly wrapped the groove.

Jack thought,

As long as follow this circle of rock and build a space above the groove.

It would naturally form a simple, safe, and stable shelter.

After choosing the place of the shelter, Jack took action immediately.

Without any hesitation, he took out ten bottles of drinking water from the box and put them on the trading platform on the channel.

Jack opened the chatting interface.

"Wood for food".

"Stone for food".

"Kneel and beg for the tools, lighters, torches. As long as they can shine, even the flint!"

"Do you have a quilt? It's so cold here."

Only then did Jack realize that the message had been put in the wrong place. He forgot to assign the channel, and the system put it in the nearby channel.

The nearby channel was much quieter than the world channel.

And it was basically about shopping and exchanging information.

Jack glanced at the users in the nearby channel.

"8900 online users."

Why is there so much less?

The number dropped so fast that Jack felt a sense of urgency.

After thinking for a while, he found that the speed of the transaction channel was too slow. He directly posted an advertisement on the interface.

To be alive is the true ability: "Sell ten bottles of drinking water, and exchange the steel plate and metal plate if necessary. You can also use cement powder, metal first, the bigger the better!"

As soon as the advertisement was released, the originally quiet channel suddenly became lively.

"Water! Water resource! Kneel and beg!"

"Buddy, we are in urgent need of a bottle of drinking water!"

"Are you a mind reader? You have what I want most?"

"Your metaphor is wrong. The boss should be Doraemon. He has a treasure bag. He can get whatever he wants."

"Sir, there is no steel plate, but I have a solid, brand new, and undamaged door panel. Can I exchange it with you?"

"OPPA, can I have a drink? I promise I just have 100 million drinks!"

Jack opened the transaction interface. As expected, a lot of applications popped up at this moment.

Compared with the world channel, most of the comments in the nearby channel were mainly about trading and shopping.

There were only one or two gangsters and whoremasters.

After all, we were neighbors. In the same region, harmony was the most important.

No one wanted to make trouble for himself in such a bad condition unless he was a fool.

Jack certainly didn't believe those who wanted to drink water for free in the channel.

This was a place for survival. He was not so naive as to believe their nonsense.

Jack selected a group of people.

In the end, he selected a batch of necessary basic materials for building a shelter from many applications and made the transaction one by one.

Ten bottles of drinking water were soon sold out.

What he got was a sleeping bag, a solid board, a bag of cement powder, three bundles of sticks, three ropes ten meters long, and a large number of stones.

Unfortunately, he couldn't get the steel plate and metal he wanted most.

After the drinking water was sold out, many people talked about Jack in private, hoping Jack could sell more drinking water.

But Jack didn't think about selling more drinks.

On the one hand, he didn't want more people to know that he still had a lot of drinking water, which was hidden trouble for him.

On the other hand, drinking water was the hard currency for survival. He wanted to create a situation where demand exceeded supply. After all, good things had to be sold slowly to get a higher profit.

Especially in the current situation, it hadn't lasted for twelve hours since the survival. Jack estimated that everyone didn't have much supply.

The most valuable materials were almost purchased by him.

What he needed to do now was to maximize the benefits.

Jack exited the nearby channel and went to the world trading channel.

His previous link to the drinking water has more than 10000 comments below!

The dense information forced Jack to search for the keywords "steel" and "metal".

Then he checked carefully among those selected comments.

Finally, he found what he wanted most.

His sight fell on one of the transaction requests.

The deal this person offered was a complete steel plate!

The man wrote down the note. This steel plate was the lid of a container he had dismantled. It was five meters long, four meters wide, and about three millimeters in thickness.

Jack thought it over. This steel plate seemed good from the data.

He thought for a while and sent a private message to that person.

To be alive is the true ability: "Can you put the steel plate on the trading channel? I need to see the shape of the steel plate."

"No problem."

The man seemed to be waiting for his message.

He replied to Jack immediately.

A few seconds later, a link of steel plate appeared on the trading channel.
