Chapter 12: Great Harvest (Two Resource Treasures - Russian Olive Seed and Spring Water Fragment)
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Richard didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he saw the other party's messages.
This guy also had a top-grade item.
He dared to fish without a trump card.
Richard opened the [Trading Market].
The price of the other party's 1-star resource treasure, the olive seed, had been reduced to 2,000 units of food or 15 desert wolves.
The spring water fragment treasure also had been sold for 500 units of food or 3 desert wolves.
That guy obviously couldn't hold on any longer.
But even so, no one cared.
Who would have extra food to buy such a useless treasure at this time?
He searched the [Forum Chat] for posts about the olive seeds and the spring water fragments and found that they were all sent by [Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon].
Richard clicked on them and found them funny.
[Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Come quickly, buy the precious strategic treasure from the 3-star treasure chest!]
[The 10-mu Russian olive seed will mature once a month. As long as one buys it, they will be able to harvest a batch of food every month.]
[It is the best choice for the desert lords! The cornerstone of hegemony!]
[As long as one gathers the three pieces of the spring water fragment, they will be able to obtain a spring core! The desert lords who lacked water practically could not miss this!]
[One can find these two treasures in the exchange market by searching.]
Richard pondered about it.
"It's not a big deal for you to boast about yourself, but the reply below is quite interesting."
[First Floor: Are you crazy? Do you sell 2,000 units of food for a lousy treasure? And it can only be grown in the desert! Don't you know the price of food now?]
[Second Floor: As a random desert lord, I just want to say that the owner is a retard! That olive seed is not bad, but the description clearly states that it needs sufficient irrigation! Who the hell can afford this?]
[Not to mention the ridiculous price of selling 2,000 units of food, do you know what it means to have 15 desert wolves? That is a level 3, Elite 3-star group monster! Who can kill 15 desert wolves on the first day? Why didn't you go to heaven with such a big nose?]
[Third Floor: I seriously want these treasures. Can you give me a lower price? I'll give you 300 units of food for the olive seeds I got after killing a wild camel. I can't bear to eat them.]
[Fourth Floor: The treasures are so expensive. They look good, but they're useless. Don't you feel bad using these little resources to exchange for something else?]
[Fifth Floor: I have nothing to say.]
[Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon: At first, you would argue a little, but in the end, it's just spat. You wouldn't dare to talk back.]
[No wonder you're so anxious.]
The guy's defense was interrupted by the sand sculpture players.
They still liked to be vicious. Even in a different world, it hadn't changed.
After thinking for a while, Richard sent that guy a message.
[Qing Qiu: The desert wolves harvested yesterday have been dealt with already. You're too late.]
The other party replied instantly.
[Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Oh my god, you've finally appeared!!!]
[Don't try to scare me. I've already asked around. There are at least 7 or 8 desert wolves that appear at the same time. With such a large one, even if you remove the skin, bones, and internal organs, a few combined can produce at least 2,000 units of meat. It's impossible to finish them in one day.]
[Just buy it!!]
[Qing Qiu: I can only produce 800 units of desert wolf meat.]
[Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon: The Russian olive seed can be sold only for so little money? That's too cheap!]
[Qing Qiu: Who told you that it's the olive seed for 800? I'm talking about the two treasures for 800.]
[Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon: You are ruthless! But I will never give in! I will never sell them even if I die!]
[Qing Qiu: Hear me out.]
[Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Sigh, Big Brother, speak! I am listening.]
[Qing Qiu: I can produce 800 units of wild wolf meat in exchange for your resource treasures. After half a month, I can continue to give another 800 units. After a month, I could produce another 800 units.]
Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon was also stunned.
[Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Big Brother...is this a payment by installments?]
[Qing Qiu: 800 units of wild wolf meat is enough for you to last for some time. That is meat, not rice or flour. Moreover, I don't have much food in my hands. I still have hundreds of people to feed. I don't have that many resources to trade with you.]
[If you don't accept, then forget it. I have food in my hands. I have 20 billion people to feed. Don't tell me I can't buy similar resources and treasures.]
Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon immediately became anxious. He was still waiting for the rice to be in the pot. If those refugees ran away, his territory would be in chaos.
[Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Don't, Big Brother... Alright! I agree, but we have to sign a contract!!]
[Qing Qiu: No problem.]
The two signed the system contract once for 100 gold coins. It could guarantee the interests of both parties. If one party breaches the contract, it would be punishable as breaking the contract as discussed.
After Richard signed the contract with the other party, he went to the warehouse to get 800 units of wild wolf meat.
The two resource treasures obtained from a 3-star treasure chest also appeared in his hands smoothly.
He only spent 800 units of meat in exchange for two resource treasures. This transaction was a bloody profit.
As for the remaining 1,600 units of meat, he would supplement the shortage over time.
In other words, the 800 units of meat after half a month would not have the same expensive price. The purchasing power would devalue.
Richard carefully looked at the two resource treasures in his hands.
The Russian olive seed looked like a Russian olive. It emitted a faint fluorescence.
The spring water fragment was one-third the size of a palm, like a broken crystal, but it did not cut Richard's hand.
[Russian Olive Seed (Resource Treasure)]
[Level: 1-star]
[Range: 10 Mu]
[Characteristics: Must be planted in the desert, requires sufficient water for irrigation, ripens once a month.]
[Description: A resource treasure exclusive to the desert.]
******
[Spring Water Fragment (Resource Treasure)]
[Level: 1-star]
[Water Output: Small -- LSB Status: Incomplete (1/3)]
[Characteristics: After placement, the fragment will form a spring that will not dry up.]
[Description: A fragment of a resource treasure. Only when it is complete can it be used.]
Holding the Russian olive seed, a stream of information immediately gushed out of Richard's mind.
After selecting an area and placing the Russian olive seed in the central, olives would grow out rapidly in a short period.
Richard was in a great mood.
With this Russian olive seed, it meant that Twilight City would have a stable source of food.
Stability was more a priority to the territory than anything else.
However, the biggest problem was still not solved.
The water source!
The Russian olive seed needed sufficient water for irrigation. The small well in Twilight City could not even provide food and drinks for the hundreds of people. There was no way to grow it at all.
"I have to think of a way to find the other spring water fragments..."
"Since it's a 1-star resource treasure and a fragment, the chances of being opened is surely not low."
"Although the number of 3-star treasure chests is rare, there are 20 billion players. It's natural for 300,000 to 500,000 players to be as lucky as Where's Your F*cking Italian Cannon."
"Money can make the mill push the ghost. As long as there are enough resources, I can put a bounty on 20 billion players to work for me..."
After identifying his target, Richard immediately asked someone to call Karu over and gave him some instructions.
"Today, I'm going to patrol around the territory to look for resource points and edible prey. You arrange for the residents to clean up the territory and don't go out. The territory will be starkly safe for the week. No monster, not even a dragon, can enter."
