The whole nation is trying to survive on the cable car; I'm choosing one of three options at ea

When flipping through these

He opened the trading channel and posted a buy request:

Looking to buy wooden arrow blueprints. Food can be used in exchange. Price is negotiable.

The message was sent out, and my private chat exploded again.

But when you click on them, all you see are useless messages like "Looking for a carry, pro?", "Can I borrow some food?", and "I have iron ingots, want to trade?". Not a single one is selling blueprints.

Su Mu scrolled through the messages one by one, and was about to close the app when a familiar profile picture popped up.

Chen Jun.

"Brother Su, I saw you sent a message in the channel. You must not be busy! Do you need any more wood?"

Su Mu replied, "Yes."

The other party sent ten portions of timber, and seemed to have listened to his advice, not cutting more than necessary.

The Shetland Sheep directly traded 5 portions of food to the other party.

Just as I was about to close the window, the other person said again, "Hey, Brother Su, that wooden arrow blueprint..."

Su Mu's eyes lit up when he heard the other person mention this. "Do you have one?"

"No," Chen Jun replied quickly. "But if I may ask... do you absolutely need blueprints? Will the wooden arrows I carved work?"

Su Mu was taken aback.

Yes.

Items made from blueprints have system attribute bonuses, but ordinary physical items... should also be usable, right?

He thought for a moment and asked, "Can you make it?"

"I could, but I don't have the tools," Chen Jun said. "I could use an axe, but it would be slow. It would be great if I had a good knife."

"You make one and try it out, then I'll see if it works."

"Okay, wait for me a moment."

About seven or eight minutes later, Chen Jun sent a transaction request.

A wooden arrow appeared in the trade window.

Su Mu took it in his hand and examined it... It was just a sharpened wooden stick. It was extremely rough, but you could barely make out that it was shaped like an arrow.

[Ordinary wood splinter (gray)]

[Type: Consumable]

It can actually be made!

Su Mu paused for a moment, then immediately tried to load the arrows into the small quiver.

[Arrow cassette being loaded... 1/100]

It can hold a lot!

Although this thing looks rudimentary and its damage is probably not very high, it's better than nothing. Moreover, the quiver is automatically aimed and fired, hitting exactly where you point it within a 100-meter range. Even if the damage per arrow is low, as long as there are enough of them...

Moreover, he doesn't have a better replacement right now.

"If you were to mass-produce this, how many could you produce per hour?" Su Mu asked.

"Using an axe... is a bit difficult, mainly because it's inconvenient to operate. If we had a knife, making about twenty per hour shouldn't be a problem." Chen Jun paused. "If we don't care about the appearance and just want something that can be shot, we could make thirty per hour."

Thirty shots per hour?

Su Mu's eyes lit up.

He glanced at the arrow he had just seen... Although rough, the shaft was fairly straight, and the arrowhead was sharpened. The fact that Chen Jun could achieve this level of skill with an axe showed that he was indeed quite adept.

but......

Then he asked, "Approximately how much can be obtained from one piece of timber?"

Then he asked, "Approximately how much can be obtained from one piece of timber?"

"I'd estimate around thirty!"

Upon hearing this number, Su Mu was overjoyed.

Keep in mind that one unit of wood is equivalent to about 0.5 units of food, which is enough to make thirty sticks.

Su Mu thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you make a batch to try it out? As for the price... thirty arrows for three portions of food, how about that?"

"Great! Absolutely fantastic!" Chen Jun's excitement was palpable even through the screen. "Brother Su, how many do you want?"

"I'll take whatever you have." Su Mu glanced at his food reserves and added, "But I don't have that much food on hand, and I definitely can't survive on food alone in the long run. Later on, I might exchange it for other things, and you can take those to exchange for food yourself then."

"No problem, no problem!" Chen Jun quickly agreed. "I'll start working on it and contact you when it's done."

After turning off private chat, Su Mu leaned against the pile of supplies and let out a long breath.

The problem with the wooden arrows has been solved.

Although handcrafted items don't have system bonuses, they have the advantage of being plentiful and plentiful. With a 100-meter range and auto-aiming function, even if each arrow doesn't deal much damage, accumulating enough of them creates a formidable firepower.

Moreover, the cost of this thing is almost zero... Chen Jun can get wood by cutting down trees, and making arrows only requires time and manpower. Thirty arrows for three portions of food, this deal is a win-win situation no matter how you look at it.

"Brother Su, I've peeled twenty of them, do you think that'll do?"

A transaction request popped up, and twenty wooden arrows were neatly stacked in the bar.

Su Mu picked one up and examined it... It was a bit worse than the first one, but the arrowhead was about as sharp, only the shaft was rougher.

[Ordinary wood splinter (gray)]

Same as before.

"Not bad," Su Mu replied. "Two meals, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Chen Jun quickly confirmed.

The transaction is complete.

Su Mu put all twenty wooden arrows into the arrow box.

Arrow magazine reload: 21/100

Seventy-nine more are needed.

"Keep going, I'll take as many as you have," Su Mu said. "I'll try to figure out the tools, see if I can get some knives or something."

"Alright!" Chen Jun said enthusiastically, "I'll get started!"

After turning off private chat, Su Mu exchanged 5 portions of food for a wood-chopping knife in the channel.

Then it was traded to Chen Jun.

To Su Mu's surprise, Chen Jun asked about the price and traded five portions of food to him.

Su Mu did not refuse.

After doing all this.

Su Mu glanced out the window.

Strange noises and figures could be vaguely seen in the thick fog.

He glanced at it but ignored it, instead leaning against the pile of supplies and closing his eyes to rest.

I've had a tiring day, and my energy is quite depleted. The cable car upgrade will take another six hours, so I'll take this time to rest.

Moreover, based on last night's assessment, these things usually only come in around midnight. I should get some rest as soon as possible.

Just as Su Mu was about to close his eyes and take a nap, a message popped up.

Sender: Zhou Zhenguo.

Su Mu frowned.

He opened the messages and quickly scanned them.

"Brother Su, do you have any medicine on hand? Anti-inflammatory drugs, wound medicine, iodine solution, anything like that will do. I need a large quantity, and I can trade it for a silencer. But I don't have any in stock right now, so I'll have to wait until tomorrow or the day after to give it to you."

Su Mu's brows furrowed even more.

To put it bluntly, this is asking him to let you buy on credit.

According to his business principles, extending credit is out of the question. These days, nobody knows if they'll even be alive tomorrow; verbal promises are practically worthless.

But the other party is Zhou Zhenguo... a talisman maker, a profession that allows him to reliably produce three talismans every day. Such a person is indeed worth befriending.

But who knows if someone is a true talisman maker based on just one sentence? These days, you earn your own identity; it's impossible to expect him to give you supplies for free based on that alone.

He thought for a moment and replied, "I never offer credit here. However, if you're willing to tell me why you need so much medicine, I can help you as much as I can."

There was a moment of silence on the other end.

About half a minute later, Zhou Zhenguo's message arrived:

"We've encountered a high-level monster. Lv2 blue quality, Licker."
