Doomsday City Building Game

Chapter 116 Ore Shortage
"Master Jiang Li."

The little boy quickly followed behind Jiang Li. Although he was a little shy and introverted, he still mustered up the courage to raise his head and handed the two folded baskets to Jiang Li:
"Grandma left this specially for the adults. Thank you, the adults, for saving us and escorting us to the oasis. He also gave us food to survive."

Seeing that the little boy was holding the basket, Jiang Li lifted it up subconsciously so as not to push him down.

Only when I held it in my hand did I realize.

The material of the back basket is a kind of withered bark on the mountain outside. After peeling off the outer layer of the bark, the inner core of the bark is not only smooth but also tough enough. The weaved back basket is light and strong.

As early as yesterday when Chang Sheng and E'Mu discovered this, they tightened their belts and bought some from those who transported firewood. They taught each other and made them into baskets. The sales volume was extremely good.

The little boy rubbed the bark for two whole days, his thin hands like bamboo sticks were covered with red marks and sawdust, but when he handed it to her, there was a satisfied smile and hope for the future on his face.

I don't know if he was embarrassed, but without waiting for Jiang Li to speak, he turned around and slipped into the crowd, his figure disappeared into the distant noise, and headed towards the stall.

handicraft?
People living in the doomsday will grow wildly like weeds when they encounter water sources, which is more powerful than she expected.

Naturally, due to the existence of the tax rate, 5% of the profit from every transaction in the Changxi territory needs to be included in the territory funds.

Only the lord Jiang Li was excluded.

If the tax of a certain transaction is less than 1 copper coin, it will be accumulated to the next time, and it will be submitted together after the full copper coin.

Therefore, from the record of "xx and xx made a transaction with xx and collected xx copper coins for taxes and fees" on the Changxi territory, Jiang Li can somewhat understand the general situation of the territory's current market transactions.

Apart from the income from the price difference in the mission hall, the income from tax collection, etc., the most eye-catching thing is of course the system prompt from the [Forging Workshop].

[The forging workshop sold "Water Rhyme Ring (Green Product)" x1, congratulations on getting 9000 copper coins. 】

[The forging workshop sold "Fish Scale Boots (Green Product)" x1, congratulations on getting 7000 copper coins. 】

Not only did they have income from mercenaries, but with the help of rental equipment, some hunting experts also began to buy promising white-grade equipment.

[The forging workshop sold "Long Knife (White Product)" x1, congratulations on getting 650 copper coins. 】

[The forging workshop sold "Shoes (White Product)" x1, congratulations on getting 700 copper coins. 】

[The forging workshop sold "Shield (White Product)" x1, congratulations on getting 600 copper coins. 】

……

Even some people with good strength have gradually formed a few small groups to hunt monsters together, and travel is more secure.

Jiang Li turned to the [Forge Workshop] in the northeast region of the territory.

*

Not far from the workshop, there are temporary residents who are waiting for tomorrow to grab weapons and armor rentals.

Angeli and Iverson's tents are among them.

Iverson is quite good as a swordsman, and even organized a small team on his own, with outstanding hunting results, but he is not in the camp now.

There are also those who have gone hunting like them and have not yet returned. Those who invited to cook have already set up a bonfire on the ground of the camp.

The ragged uncle hangs hot soup from a bamboo tube, sprinkles the wild vegetables and radishes purchased in the [Mission Hall], and the white mist rises, blurring the vicissitudes of his eyes.

The soup here is bubbling on the firewood.

Thin slices of meat have already begun to fry on the heated stone on the other side.

After scalding and rolling, the fried oil stains "Zi La" sounded, causing the tongue of fire to lick, printing the uncle's happy face red.

After saying hello to Angeli who was still busy, Jiang Li approached Otto to learn about the situation of the workshop in the past two days.

Otto thought about it.

For work, the demand for people coming and going in the workshop is of course large, even for leasing, he needs to continue to build it to meet the needs of residents.But it was all within his tolerable range.

In terms of food, Jiang Li's treatment for his own people is naturally not inferior, and it is more delicious than any food he has eaten in most of his life.

As for accommodation, the [Forging Workshop] has a staff cabin at the back, and Jiang Li provided him with tables, chairs and bedding. This is a fairy-like day in the apocalypse!
"No problem for the time being, my lord." Otto wiped the sweat from his hands on the overcoat, remembering the rapid consumption of forging materials, he added:
"But if we can, maybe we need more ore and materials."

To create a sword requires black crystal ore, to create a shield requires stone and earth mines, to create a staff requires rhyme wood...

After all, Jiang Li didn't stay long in the northern plain where the ore was mined on the isolated island of Tanmiya. Even though he searched for a lot of materials in the southern market in the later stages of his life, the amount of each material was not too much.

It's okay to build a batch, but if things go on like this, those basic ores and materials will be consumed too fast.

And now is the time when the territory has grown from scratch, and the demand is only high.I'm afraid that within a few days, there will be other materials, but the dilemma of basic materials is short.

"From now on outside, just call me Jiang Li."

Jiang Li wrote this down: "Are these basic ore materials good? Where can they usually be found?"

"Okay, Your Excellency Jiang Li."

Speaking of these, Otto, who is wandering in the doomsday world, naturally knows it well, and patiently educated Jiang Li:
"If it was the original magic continent, where magic elements gathered, there might be large or small veins, but this situation is rare now.

Since the end of the day, many creatures have mutated or appeared out of thin air, among which there are various stone monsters that specialize in devouring ores.

Or eat other things, turn it into ore in the body, and equip it on yourself.As long as you beat them, it is possible to get it.

However, the Libixi forest was once lush, mysterious and prosperous, and was once listed as one of the four most dangerous places on the mainland. There should still be some places that can be mined. "

"Tomorrow, I will go out to explore, and I will pay attention to you when the time comes. Please make a list of the fastest-consuming basic ores for me."

When a problem is discovered, it is natural to solve it as soon as possible.

When he said that, Jiang Li's mind automatically recalled the appearance of those level 1 and level 2 stone monsters on the isolated island plain.

Speaking of which, knowing these things at the time, it was Li Hui and others who met and explained them to her.It was also there that he interacted with many people.

Under the bright light of the magic stone, Otto had already taken the paper, and eloquently listed the names of more than ten kinds of ores and materials that were about to be used up, and noted their respective colors, attributes and characteristics.

Jiang Li put away the list and kept the supper as overtime pay. When he came out, he happened to meet Betty who came to buy equipment.

The beautiful woman with long chestnut hair lit up slightly when she saw her, and her rippling pupils curved like autumn water: "Master Jiang Li."

She glanced at the direction Jiang Li came out from: "Do you have any equipment you need to buy?"

Betty thought about the money she earned from the dungeon, and felt that the previous favor could still be repaid.
