Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

The lucky guy casually said, "Anyway, we have no use for them. You can use these two for now, and we can exchange them for better ones later."

Li Zhi casually asked, "Besides the buttons, is there anything else special about your cotton-padded coat?"

The lucky guy thought for a moment: "You mean attributes, right? The clothes I make usually add 2 points of defense, and occasionally they can add a little bit of spirit or speed, but the probability is not high. The total attribute points will basically not exceed 4 points."

4 PM?

Her precious boots only added 2 points.

Even when sleeping, I couldn't bear to take off the badges on my thermal underwear; each badge only added 2.5 points to my attributes.

"Hahaha." Li Zhi's face stiffened: "I feel a bit cold. It must be because the down jacket isn't warm enough. Why don't you make me a cotton-padded coat too? The coat, including these two buttons, will cost 3 gold coins."

The lucky guy figured 3 gold coins wouldn't be much, so he casually agreed: "Okay."

As they were talking, a dilapidated flying boat came towards them.

The one who prioritized survival was the first to see it, pointing over there: "There's a flying boat!"

Hao Shi and Ou Huang immediately became alert.

Especially Hao Shi, whose previous attempt to intercept her by the hunter group made her even more eager to get a weapon. She found you safely on the airship and bought two guns and ammunition.

Although it was just an ordinary gun, holding it in my hand at that moment brought me a sense of peace.

Li Zhi guessed it was the flying boat that "you're taking it personally again," but just to be on the safe side, he reminded Hao Shidao, "It should be one of our own, but I'm not sure. Keep your gun raised."

Greedy Pass: "Are they those miners?"

Just as Li Zhigang was about to speak, the flying boat had already stopped halfway up the mountain.

The hatch opened, and out stepped... a 1.8-meter-tall bald, muscular man?

"Hey sisters, who among you is a 3-star 5-cost player? If I am, you're definitely one of them!"

The burly man turned around to speak, and only then did everyone see that her bald head revealed very delicate features.

She was probably used to other people's stares and explained directly, "It's a woman, no doubt about it. I shaved my hair because there was nowhere to wash it on the ship and it got too oily."

The guy who was trying to survive swallowed hard: "How tall are you?"

You then took it personally: "195, but I say 188 to outsiders, because 188 means 'to get rich,' and I'm willing to have seven centimeters of bone shaved off to make money."

Greedy for Life Pass: "You might as well give me your bone instead of shaving it! My biggest wish in this life is to grow to 170!"

You looked at your small, timid body and shook your head, saying, "It's difficult. I've trained myself since I was little, playing ball, running, and learning martial arts. Plus, my whole family is tall, so I've surpassed them."

Even the European emperor muttered, "Some are dying of drought while others are drowning in floods."

The "European Queen" and "Survival Pass" are sisters, about the same height, probably around 165cm.

Hao Shi was only slightly shorter than Li Zhi, about 170 cm tall.

But Li Zhi was also a little envious.

178 cm is her ideal height, and she would be very happy if she could grow another 6 cm.

You then ask, "Are we starting today? Do we start receiving our salary on the first day or after we officially begin working? What are our job duties?"

Li Zhi pointed to the construction platform: "We are still in the planning and construction stage. Currently, we are going to build a dormitory and warehouse here. The ship will also be modified to become a fishing boat and dormitory. It will be a two-shift system, and you can choose the day shift or the night shift."

You then took it personally: "Then what do you need me to do to build the house? I'm very strong."

Li Zhi: "No need. As long as we have the blueprints and materials, we can build anything on the construction platform."

However, she currently has neither blueprints nor materials.

"Sheng Sheng, ask if any of the people you recruit have studied architecture or civil engineering. See if they can draw. You'll get 100 copper coins for each drawing."

"OK!"

"Tan Sheng Pass" immediately sent a message in the group.

Li Zhi: "I am the captain of this fishing boat, you can just call me Sanwu. They are..."

She got to know Lu Huang and Hao Shi with a sense of self-identity. After the three introduced themselves, Tan Sheng Pass also introduced himself, and the initial team was basically assembled.

"Someone said she studied architecture and had a talent for it. She said she could draw simple blueprints for only 50 copper coins."

Li Zhi's eyes lit up: "Talent is also architecture? Have her draw one and let's see."

"it is good."

Li Zhi then opened the game store.

Zero Degrees' shop has a variety of materials, including wood, stone, and iron.

However, instead of buying directly, she found the trading area in the upper right corner of the game store.

Yes, the trading area hasn't disappeared; it's just moved to a different location to facilitate bartering or purchasing items for other players.

Li Zhigang was about to search for the materials he wanted when several dialog boxes popped up in front of him:

[Your online store has completed a transaction, experience +1]

[Your online store has completed a transaction, experience +1]

Your online store is now complete...

[Experience points for selling the same type of item have reached the maximum limit]

The fluorescent moss spores were indeed in high demand; they were traded 12 times in a short time. Although the limit only gave her 10 experience points, it still accounted for half of her experience bar.

Li Zhi opened his career panel:

[Shop: Blacklisted Shop]

[Businessman: Li Zhi]

Shop Level: 1 (10/20)

[Shop Anchor Points: 1. Wilderness Market; 2. Black Iron Harbor; 3. (+)]

[Shop Status: Free Stall (Upgradeable)]

[Shop Equipment: Merchant's Cloak, Merchant's Backpack, Fair Scale]

The fast-growing mushrooms are estimated to be sold only when the extreme cold arrives.

If you want to reach professional level 3 quickly, you still need to take the initiative to trade.

After closing the panel and dialog box, Li Zhi found a lot of materials she wanted in the trading area. With one click, she searched and bought them, and placed them directly on the open ground in front of her.

She opened Celia's chat window again: [I need a large quantity of raw materials and supplies, urgently. I'll give you 3% commission. When can you get it done?]

Celia replied quickly this time: [Give me the order, right away]

Celia: [When are you coming to Black Iron Harbor to collect the goods?]

Li Zhi sent over a list: [Let's go through a transit station.]

Friends can transfer items to each other using the player panel, but there is a unit size limit. Generally, only small items can be transferred. Items that are numerous or large in size must be transferred through the trading area.

However, the trading area will take a cut.

Li Zhi felt that the biggest advantage of being a merchant was that one could directly conduct shop transactions.

However, Celia rejected her.

Celia: [Offline transactions only, no online channels allowed]

Li Zhi had long noticed this problem. Regardless of their race, merchants in this world, where technology was far more advanced than on Earth, still insisted on using the most primitive face-to-face transactions. Only a very small number of merchants were willing to trade online.

When the red ore was transported through the transit station last time, Celia was clearly somewhat resistant, but most likely she didn't trust her either, so she agreed.

Now, however, they refuse without even thinking.

Li Zhi was genuinely curious: [Why? Isn't it a waste of time to personally handle all the goods?]

Celia: [If personally selecting goods is a waste of time, then you don't deserve to be a merchant.]

Li Zhi: [It's because I believe in you.]

Celia: [Are you afraid of crashing into something that sinks?]

Li Zhi: [Who said that? Why would I be afraid of her? Could she possibly kill me inside the teleportation array?]

Celia: [Shen is not here, come quickly if you want to]

Li Zhi: [Coming right away]
