Train Survival: One colored hexagon per level!

Little Red Riding Hood Lucky Brooch

[Category: Extraordinary Creations]

[Level: 7]

[Note: This brooch is Little Red Riding Hood's most treasured possession. It carries a certain inexplicable luck, and the wearer is always unexpectedly given a gentle push by fate.]

Yes, that's right, it's level seven!

Lu Xingyuan initially thought he was seeing things, after all, he was only a level three train conductor, and level seven items were still a long way off for him.

But that's just how it is!

This brooch is a level seven item!

"Luck?"

Lu Xingyuan muttered to himself.

He felt that he really needed some metaphysical power.

After carefully putting on the brooch, Lu Xingyuan then divided the one hundred general-purpose bullets into two portions, giving one portion to Cai Cai and listing the other portion for sale in the trading channel.

The price is 5 train coins.

As a result, it was snapped up as soon as it was put on the shelves.

After all, bullets are the most scarce consumable right now. Only with bullets can we have the means to fight monsters and better explore the platform and collect supplies.

Cai Cai was naturally very touched.

"Brother Lu cares about me so much, but I have nothing to offer in return."

Does that make me seem like someone who takes advantage of kindness?

However, her reminder made Lu Xingyuan remember his fiery chili seeds.

It has stopped bubbling, which means it has absorbed enough water and is ready to be planted.

Unfortunately, the terracotta pot in front of me is too small; it can only hold four plants at a time. Planting them too close together would affect their growth.

"The production cycle takes three days!"

Lu Xingyuan couldn't wait any longer and quickly entered the trading channel, searching for "fertilizer" as the keyword.

He actually found quite a few.

[Basic Fast-Growing Compound Fertilizer] x5 units, Price: 3 Train Coins

[Intermediate Fast-Growing Compound Fertilizer] x2 units, Price: 5 Train Coins

Intermediate-grade fast-growing compound fertilizer is an upgraded version of the basic grade.

An extraordinary creation of level 2.

The effect is more significant compared to the initial version.

By mixing less fertilizer into the soil, crops can mature in a shorter time, further increasing yield.

For some cash crops that originally had a long growth cycle, it can also achieve efficient ripening with minimal loss of soil fertility.

Lu Xingyuan tried to bargain with the other party.

Damn it, we failed.

The other party refused to lower the price by even a single train coin.

Having no other choice, Lu Xingyuan had to accept it, even if he had to grit his teeth and bear it.

Consuming eight train coins yields 5 units of basic fertilizer and 2 units of intermediate fertilizer.

Lu Xingyuan went straight for the best.

Apply medium-grade fertilizer!

All I can say is that technology and ruthless skills are truly amazing.

The chili seedlings were soon covered with bright red chilies.

Each seedling had about twenty shoots.

If there are four seedlings, that's eighty!

Cai Cai needs 5 chili peppers to make a plate of dry red chili peppers.

In other words, all these chilies in front of you can make a total of 16 plates of dry red chili peppers!

Based on current market prices, selling a serving of Qianhong Lieyan for 5 train coins isn't unreasonable!

If you have 16 trays, that's 80 train coins!

We're rich! We're rich!

Lu Xingyuan's eyes instantly turned into symbols of gold coins.

He quickly sent all the picked chili peppers to Cai Cai.

Cai Cai was stunned!

"Brother Lu, where did you get so many chili peppers?!"

"I grew these myself. Do these chilies meet the requirements for making dry red chilies?"

"Perfect! Absolutely perfect! This is even better than the chili peppers I used before! Maybe the resulting dry red chili peppers will have an even stronger effect!"

"What? The effect can be even stronger? Then I'll have to raise the price even further!"

Lu Xingyuan told Cai Cai to quickly stir-fry a batch and try it.

Soon, the Qianhong Lieyan, which had not changed much in appearance, was in his hands.

However, the buff it comes with has changed.

Originally, after taking it, one would not be affected by moisture for two hours.

But now the time has been extended to four hours!

This is truly the Qianhong Blaze Plus!

"Six train coins!"

Lu Xingyuan immediately set its price!

Moreover, he can't just dump everything into the trading channel all at once.

Instead, we must sell slowly and in an orderly manner.

Their main strategy is scarcity marketing.

He's not after those poor train conductors' coins.

How many coins can they have?

What he really wants to earn are the coins of those wealthy train conductors!

For example, the mutual aid societies, Tianhua Society, Steel Revival Society, Pure Thought Brotherhood, and Crimson Legion—they all have their own currency!

Oh, and of course, there's my good ally, Gu Wanqing.

This young lady must have made a lot of money on the train at the last stop, how could we forget her?

"What the hell?! Are you even human?! I'm your ally, how can you exploit me like this?!"

Gu Wanqing pointed and muttered curses.

"Hey, hurry up and give me the contact information for that ordinary leopard-print girl. I want to be good friends with her and I don't want to be exploited by you anymore!"

Want to skip the middleman?

no way!

"I'm just worried she'll be fooled by you. You're no good guy!"

Lu Xingyuan was just teasing Gu Wanqing, of course.

After all, they are my good ally; how could I be so heartless?

After sending three portions of Dry Red Flame to the other party for free, Lu Xingyuan shouted in the chat channel:

"The 'Dry Red Blazing Flame Plus Edition' will be available on the trading channel in three minutes. Limited quantity, first come, first served!"

The chat channel exploded the moment the message was sent!

"Holy crap, is the Dry Red Blazing Flame finally going to be available again?!"

"Waaaah! I've finally waited for you! I'm so glad I didn't give up!"

"What does 'plus version' mean? Does it mean the effect is even more powerful and effective than the regular version?"

"I missed out last time, but this time I'm determined to get it no matter what!"

"Why is Lu Xingyuan now the one selling the Dry Red Flame? I remember it was a girl before, right? Could it be that they've reached a cooperation agreement?"

"I have a bad feeling about this. Will the price change?"

"@Lu Xingyuan, if you were a person, you should still sell it for 3 train tickets!"

Lu Xingyuan felt it was necessary to give them a heads-up:

"Due to the impact of severe weather, the price of the main raw materials for making dry red flame oil has continued to rise, so the price may be increased slightly."

How much is "a tiny bit"?

"Six train tickets per set."

Grass!

The train conductors were instantly in an uproar!

They all cursed Lu Xingyuan as a heartless and unscrupulous businessman!

He even extended very warm greetings to Lu Xingyuan's ancestors for eighteen generations!

"I knew you were a real scoundrel! Six train tickets a day—how dare you say that! Brothers, let's unite and not buy his stuff. Let it rot in the carriages!"

"That's right! If we all unite and refuse to buy, he'll naturally lower the price and beg us to buy!"
