[Dilapidated Survival Camp: Upgradeable]
[Upgrade to General Survival Camp, Spectral Souls 11/1, requires Wood 170/20, Stone 55/20, Earth Element Crystal Shard 1/1, upgrade time 3 hours]
Hoo!
Finally, all the materials are here.
Upgrade.
[General Survival Camp: Upgrading, remaining 2:59:59]
The camp is upgrading. Chen Yu doesn't expect much, just a small, broken house. Please, don't just give him a dry stone again, give him some surprise.
He doesn't want to sleep in the open forever.
"So annoying, they deduct 20g, only giving me 280g. What a rip-off!"
Jiang Yaqing, gnawing on roasted meat, cursed furiously, tears threatening to fall.
It was too delicious!
After devouring the 280g of roasted meat, she licked her fingers with lingering relish.
She swore.
She had never done anything so embarrassing in her life.
Her life used to be so extravagant that she wouldn't even lick the film off her yogurt cup, yet now she was licking her own fingers.
Only saliva dripped from her fingers. Jiang Yaqing looked at her white bread and ham, and then clicked on the dialogue box of Chen Yu, whom she had labeled a black-hearted merchant.
Ding-dong.
The special reminder chime sounded again. Hearing it, Chen Yu opened Jiang Yaqing's dialogue box.
Jiang Yaqing: "Hey!"
Hey?
She dared to say "hey" to him?
Chen Yu: "?"
Jiang Yaqing: "How did you make your roasted meat?"
Chen Yu: "?"
Damn it!!!
Jiang Yaqing, staring at the screen, gritted her teeth in anger.
He dared to send her question marks.
Two of them!
You damn black-hearted merchant. If it weren't for your delicious roasted meat, I wouldn't say another word to you.
No!
I shouldn't be talking to you now.
I only bought your roasted meat out of curiosity for my taste buds.
Chen Yu: "Want to buy more roasted meat?"
Insulting me again!
This damn black-hearted merchant thinks he can do whatever he wants with me just because he has delicious roasted meat.
I swear I will never yield.
Jiang Yaqing: "Pfft, your roasted meat is disgusting, it makes me sick. I don't want it. I have white bread, I have ham, I have so much food I can't eat it all."
Jiang Yaqing: "[White Bread], [Ham]"
After sending the message, Jiang Yaqing took a bite of her white bread and ham.
Ugh!
It was hard to swallow.
Jiang Yaqing, you must control your taste buds. This is his trap.
White bread and ham are delicious.
Delicious!
Chen Yu, having received the message, blinked.
Childish.
She even attached pictures.
If you have them, you have them, why tell me?
Can't eat it all?
Chen Yu didn't believe her food could be more plentiful than his.
Ding-dong.
Another message arrived.
Jiang Yaqing: "Sell me three more pieces of roasted meat. I have three element crystals."
Wow.
Chen Yu's eyes lit up at this message.
Rich.
It seems Jiang Yaqing has some skills.
Chen Yu had explored ten caves without finding any elemental shards, yet she had six shards in total.
Where did they come from?
He did need elemental crystal shards.
But!
He would not allow others to be arrogant, insubordinate, or bossy towards him.
Chen Yu: "I'll take them for 800g."
Jiang Yaqing, who was muttering about buying only three more pieces and then parting ways with Chen Yu, was stunned for a full half-minute after receiving the message.
She was selling three elemental crystal shards, and he wasn't even giving her an extra 100g.
He was even deducting 100g from her.
Jiang Yaqing: "Wasn't it 300g each?"
Chen Yu: "Are you telling me what to do?"
Jiang Yaqing: "We need to be honest. They were all exchanged for 300g earlier."
Chen Yu: "750g."
Jiang Yaqing: "Why is it less?"
Chen Yu: "700g."
Jiang Yaqing: "Deal!!!"
Upon receiving the roasted meat, Jiang Yaqing drew Chen Yu's face on the ground with a stick. She barely needed to sketch from a portrait anymore; her drawings were incredibly lifelike.
Chen Yu's face had long been deeply imprinted in her mind.
She didn't need to look!
"I'll stomp you to death, I'll stomp you to death, you black-hearted merchant, I'll stomp you to death!!!" Jiang Yaqing stomped and jumped on Chen Yu's face, even sitting on it several times with her peachy rear.
After bouncing until her chest was heaving, she bared her neat white teeth.
"Don't let me catch you. If I do, I'll make you my slave, making delicious food for me day and night. I'll let you lick my fingers when I eat meat, making you incredibly envious!!!"
Sigh!
She definitely needs discipline.
Chen Yu didn't mind Jiang Yaqing's curses behind his back.
The curses were invalid.
Any successful slave owner would not pay attention to the anger of a small slave. He was making a fortune anyway.
Three elemental crystal shards.
700g of roasted meat.
Currently, his warehouse contained three elemental crystal shards: one water element crystal shard, one earth element crystal shard, and one wind element crystal shard.
A huge profit!
But, it wasn't enough.
He wanted to absorb more, much more!!
Chen Yu turned to the chat page.
He filtered through various blueprints.
Qin Zhong: "Big shot, I have a [Bucket Blueprint]."
Chen Yu: "Low-level blueprint, 50"
Chen Yu actually hoped that other survivors in the caves would be more capable.
He could get more materials by sheer luck.
Only when they became wealthy could Chen Yu become wealthier.
Like Jiang Yaqing, it would be best if there were more of her kind. Exploiting such a wealthy person is satisfying.
Sighing, Chen Yu couldn't help but think.
He was truly a great benefactor.
In the treacherous and deceitful world of the caves, where people's hearts are unfathomable, he was still willing to sincerely wish others good luck.
The radiance of humanity shone through Chen Yu to the fullest.
Speaking of which,
If he calculated the time, the camp should be upgraded by now.
[Cave Reminder: General Survival Camp upgrade completed]
It's finished.
Chen Yu was overjoyed.
He now had a place to live!!!
