Survival in the neighborhood: Give me a piece of bread every day

The egrets saw their panicked expressions.

He said, "Don't panic. There are patrol teams all around our neighborhood. They'll report anything unusual. Then our people can take out weapons and attack them. It shouldn't be a problem."

"We killed so many Bloodthorns last time, so this time won't be much worse."

She wasn't unafraid of the bloodstains.

With so many people in their team, they could easily overpower them with force.

"That's true. Our team is so strong, and everyone has a weapon. Dealing with just one or two Bloodthorns shouldn't be too difficult."

Huo Ling'er clapped her hands, and immediately felt at ease.

Beside him, Chen An looked at the silver treasure chest that Fang Bowen had handed over.

Then he opened it.

[You have opened the Silver Treasure Chest and obtained: 10-meter Counter-Damage Wall Blueprint x1]

"It's a blueprint for a damage-reflecting wall, not bad."

Chen An said with satisfaction, then handed the blueprints to Jiang Lai and asked, "Jiang Lai, how many blueprints for the fence do we have now?"

"Wait, honey, I'll go get it and show it to you."

Jiang Lai took the newly arrived fence blueprints, then went into the bedroom and took all the blueprints from the storage cabinet.

She tossed a small stack of blueprints in her hand and said, "Darling, there are 11 blueprints of all types of walls in total: 10 five-meter ones and 1 ten-meter ones, for a total of sixty meters. Not only that, we also have two heavy crossbow tower blueprints that we haven't used yet."

As she finished tidying up the drawings, she continued, "As for the door and window drawings, there are even more. Currently, the types of door and window drawings that have appeared on the market include defensive, damage-reflecting, and self-healing types. We have dozens of each of these, so we currently have hundreds of door and window drawings."

Although she always wanted to use the best blueprints for the doors and windows in their house.

But whenever she encounters even the most ordinary blueprints, even if they are duplicates, she will immediately take them down.

Whether you'll ever use it or not, it's always good to buy it and keep it.

The main advantage is that the cost is not high.

Upon hearing this, Huo Ling'er's eyes widened in surprise.

"My goodness, hundreds of different types of door and window drawings! That's way too many!"

Are they getting new stock?

"How could there be so many? The fact that this thing has appeared means it's useful, and we'll need it sooner or later."

As Jiang Lai spoke, she raised her chin proudly and said, "Moreover, I bought most of the blueprints at rock-bottom prices, and I can easily make double the price by selling them."

"We've been helping Sister Jiang Lai look at a lot of door and window blueprints these past few days. She said that as soon as they appear on the platform, we'll snap them up!"

Chu Lexiao said lively.

Her talent has little to do with combat.

Therefore, she was assigned to Jiang Lai as soon as she entered the room, to assist her during her transactions.

For example, keep an eye on new products on the platform and stay in touch with sellers.

Jiang Lai finalized almost all the prices.

"But why would they sell it at such a low price? The blueprints for the doors are so important!"

Xia Yue expressed her confusion.

After all, the door's durability is improved after the upgrade.

It's a very safe thing.

"It's probably because there were a lot of airdrop chests from the wailing ghosts those two days, and since the wailing ghosts don't attack doors, they felt that these kinds of supplies were useless after opening them, so they thought about selling them quickly to exchange for some food."

"How could I possibly let go of those cheap blueprints? Of course I have to get my hands on them all."

Jiang Lai became increasingly proud as she spoke, displaying an air of "I'm really awesome."

"Sister Jiang Lai is amazing!"

Chu Lexiao promptly provided emotional support, clapping her hands enthusiastically.

If she had just arrived in this room, she would definitely have just kept her head down and not said a word.

But now she has integrated in and can provide emotional support at any time.

Besides, the women in the room and the landlord Chen An are all very nice people and wouldn't act arrogantly and order others around.

Chen An did not force other residents to do anything they were unwilling to do just because he was the homeowner.

After being praised by Chu Lexiao, Jiang Lai smiled.

After all, everyone likes to be praised.

Chen An nodded: "Since we have a lot of blueprints, besides selling them on the platform, you can also occasionally put a few into the contribution point redemption list."

"No problem!" Jiang Lai agreed readily. "Just like last time, give our own people a discount."

"Moreover, we can offer a discount on things that others have to pay for, so how can that not be considered a reflection of our financial strength?"

Jiang Lai spoke in a relaxed tone.

Indeed, money has its advantages in any world.

"After our team bought the blueprints, we upgraded the doors and windows, which also improved the team's strength and self-protection capabilities."

"Others who wanted to buy but couldn't will also be motivated to work hard to collect and hand over supplies in exchange for contribution points to wait for the next redemption."

"We don't need to remind them to work hard every time; they motivate themselves."

The egret said with a smile.

Overall, this method is entirely beneficial and without any drawbacks.

They can not only profit from the price difference but also gain fame.

The team's enhanced self-preservation capabilities can also be considered an increase in combat strength.

This way, more people can live a good life and work for them.

"However, now the store occasionally shows room door blueprints, right? Maybe window blueprints will appear in the future too. Once they realize the importance of the blueprints these days, they'll probably start buying mainly from the store from now on."

Tang Wanying said.

She didn't want those goods to become unsellable.

But selling it cheaply would mean that Jiang Lai's hard work would be in vain.

Jiang Lai shook her head, saying confidently, "No."

She looked at Tang Wanying and explained.

"You need to understand one thing: there will always be people who miss out. Just like these defensive door blueprints, they appeared for two consecutive days, and didn't a lot of people still miss out on buying them?"

Even if they realize the importance of the blueprints, some people will still be short of funds, for example, they don't have enough gold coins, so they can only wait until later to go to the trading platform to find more expensive blueprints.

"For example, these past two days, I've been selling door blueprints that I sourced from the mall. Even at a markup, I still get plenty of inquiries."

The more Tang Wanying listened, the more she understood.

"Oh, I was so confused. I didn't think of these things. Jiang Lai, you have a clear mind."

She quickly said.

They thought that now that blueprint items are available in the mall, their goods would be hard to sell.

But she forgot that not everyone could afford it at that time.

"Moreover, even if the mall offers blueprints, there will only be one type. We have a much wider variety of blueprints."

"Once it's listed, there will always be some residents who are willing to pay a high price to buy the type they want most."

Jiang Lai explained further to them.

Moreover, she doesn't seem tired when she talks about these things.

Simply sharing.

"You guys think—" Huo Ling'er suddenly had a brilliant idea, looked around and said, "If those people knew that they sold the blueprints at a low price and then had to pay several times the price to buy them back, wouldn't they be furious?!"

"I think it definitely will; a round trip like that costs a lot of money!"

Tao Xinran cupped her face in her hands.

Chu Lexiao's eyes lit up: "The whole room is full of big shots, how could I possibly lose?"
