Chapter 9: Return My Materials, Shady Vendor!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Hey System, what’s with these dried leaves?”

The function of the bag is only to help the player store items. The palm leaves stored in the bag will automatically become dry leaves after a while.

This was also good. Originally, these Palm Leaves had no use other than to build a thatched house. Now that they could turn into dry leaves, they did not need to use Wooden Planks to start a fire.

After one night, the seawater desalinator produced 60 bottles of water.

Since Su Bai had a lot of wooden planks now, he didn’t plan to trade for more of them. But after a thought, he deemed these wooden planks would be useful in the future, so he didn’t change his mind.

He opened the Trade option.

Item for trade: Drinkable Water x 15. Condition: 1 Bottle of Water for 10 Mud.

Item for trade: Drinkable Water x 15. Condition: 1 Bottle of Water for 15 Wooden Planks.

Item for trade: Drinkable Water x 15. Condition: 1 Bottle of Water for 3 Iron Ores.

Item for trade: Drinkable Water x 15. Condition: 1 Bottle of Water for 1 Bronze Ore.

Su Bai didn’t bother to promote it in the chat this time. When he put it up for trade earlier, he found that there were already a lot of people trading it as well.

The price was higher than what Su Bai had asked for, 11, but Su Bai was too lazy to change it. He just wanted to collect these materials as soon as possible and prepare for the storm that was coming in ten days. Every material was really insignificant to Su Bai at that moment.

Chat

[Su Bai is putting drinking water for trade again, did he find his conscience this time? He didn’t raise the price!]

[Oh, really? I need to quickly buy some to save up.]

[Please don’t buy it. If you keep fighting with me, I won’t be able to buy anything from Su Bai again!]

Xu Xiangdong commented, [Everyone, can you stop buying his things? Is it worth it for you to be so happy just because the price hasn’t increased? We have to work together to make him lower his price!]

[Why do you care? If you have the materials, you can go buy other people’s water!]

[You’re a fool to not buy the cheaper one.]

It was obvious that not many people were going to comment on Xu Xiangdong’s words because the system’s notification had already sounded.

“There was a lot of water, and it was all bought up in such a short time!”

What Su Bai didn’t know was that after two days, even though everyone was hungry, water was what they needed the most.

People could go without food for many days, but they couldn’t go without water for too many days, especially if they sweated under the sun every day, which would aggravate the water loss.

Su Bai didn’t care about them and continued fishing.

Treasure chest successfully opened: You’ve obtained Bread x 1!

“Hah, I actually got bread too. It’s really not bad. I was thinking if I should work harder today and find another fish to eat.”

Su Bai thought his luck had suddenly turned for the better, but he didn’t know it was because he had been living on this island for three days.

As time passed, the items obtained from fishing would change accordingly, and the items in the treasure chest would also be refreshed.

The morning passed by quickly, and Su Bai obtained more and more materials from the Bronze Chests.

At noon, Su Bai happily drank two bottles of water and then went back to the thatched house to rest.

He had obtained many blueprints in the morning. Although most of them were blueprints for thatched houses, many people would probably be worried about where to live today because of the rain last night.

Su Bai opened the Trade option and put all the blueprints up for trade.

Item for trade: Blueprint: Thatch House x 10. Condition: 1 Blueprint for 15 Wooden Planks.

Item for trade: Blueprint: Thatch House x 10. Condition: 1 Blueprint for 15 Mud.

After it was up for trade, Su Bai didn’t forget to open the Chat.

Su Bai sent, [I’ve put up something else for trade. This time, it’s a blueprint of a thatched house. I’m sure you’ve all seen the rain last night. It’s very common to rain in this place. If you don’t want to get wet, better make a thatched house.]

Xu Xiangdong commented, [Everyone, don’t believe his nonsense. He’s here to steal our resources again.]

[Bro, is that true? How many thatched house blueprints do you have?]

[Although it’s a little expensive, I can still grit my teeth and buy it.]

It didn’t take long for a notification to ring out that all the blueprints had been traded.

Trading completed!

You’ve lost Blueprint: Thatch House x 10 and gained Wooden Plank x 150!

Trading completed!

You’ve lost Blueprint: Thatch House x 10 and gained Mud x 150!

[Bro, that’s too few blueprints. Can you put some more up for trade?]

[I’m too slow and it’s all gone. You guys are so quick!]

Xu Xiangdong commented, [Everyone, I told you not to believe him, but you just had to believe him. I think many of you still don’t know what materials are needed to build a thatched house. It’s ten wooden planks and twenty palm leaves. What we get the most every day are palm leaves and mud, and there are very few wooden planks. He’s even collecting wooden planks in large quantities here. Can you build it with the blueprints only?]

[Ah! I don’t have any more wooden planks. It took me a whole day to collect 10 of them!]

[He does have a lot of them. I don’t know what’s going on today, but I can’t get any wooden planks!]

[Me too. It’s been more than an hour and I haven’t seen a single wooden plank!]

[Give me back my wooden planks!]

[What a shady trader! He took all of everyone’s things and always acted like a good person!]

Xu Xiangdong commented, [I told you guys a long time ago, but you guys didn’t listen. Now, there’s nothing left. It’s too late to say anything!]

At that time, Xu Xiangdong could be said to be in high spirits. He did not expect that after persevering for so many days, he had finally brought some people into the team.

Xu Xiangdong didn’t care about the result, he just wanted to go against Su Bai.

Su Bai felt a headache when he read those chats. He thought, ‘Who didn’t need materials? Why am I suddenly the shady trader?’

Then, Su Bai wanted to close the Chat very much. Shortly, he noticed there was a message for him.

[Su Bai, you there? I have something good to trade with you. I’ve sent you a friend request. Please accept, please, please!]

Su Bai was attracted by the sender’s words. He opened his friend request list, found the sender’s friend request, and accepted it.

As soon as the friend request was approved, the sender couldn’t wait to chat.

[Finally! You have approved me, Su Bai. I’ve been sending messages every ten minutes in the morning and I got your reply. I have a skill book here. Maybe you would be interested to trade!]
