Chapter 478 New reward Coal Boss! (5400 words)
Winter is over!
[The snow peak rock climbing event has ended and rewards will be distributed at the same time. Survivors who are on the list, please go to the treehouse screen to claim your rewards. 】
[Final reminder: Although winter is over, the blizzard will not stop tonight, and the snow will still cause many impacts. 】
[Survivors who are struggling in the severe cold, if you survive this night, you will usher in a new life! 】
The mysterious voice was brief and ended just like that.
Hearing the last words of the mysterious voice, Xu Xin couldn't help but sneer.
A new life?
That's what it seems to say every time.
But each time, it was more dangerous than before.
Although it was true that the first stage was a mandatory activity, as long as you returned to the tree house, you were basically guaranteed to be safe. Even after each activity, you could have a few days of completely safe rest.
But now, in this second phase of winter, not even the treehouse can fully protect everyone.
Of course, their tree house in Area 188 is still safe, after all, everyone's defense equipment is relatively complete.
Xu Xin opened her watch and clicked on the ranking list of Xuefeng rock climbing activities.
The number of people on the ranking list is fixed at 102.
In addition to the 90 people who activated the thirty large formations, there were 12 survivors who climbed the snow peak alone but were unable to activate the large formations in the end.
But they can all receive rewards.
Xu Xin's name is ranked first and in the most conspicuous position.
He directly clicked on the name to receive the reward.
[Reward: Upgrade and strengthen the tree house. 】
[The tree house will undergo growth and strengthening for 12 hours. During the strengthening period, the tree house's protective ability will be slightly reduced. 】
[After 12 hours, the tree house will acquire a new ability: constant temperature]
[Constant temperature: The thermal insulation capacity of the treehouse walls will be greatly enhanced, greatly reducing the impact of ambient temperature on the internal temperature of the treehouse. Even in extreme weather, the temperature inside the treehouse can be stably maintained with minimal consumption. 】
[The tree house with constant temperature capability will be warm in winter and cool in summer, making it your most comfortable home! 】
Constant temperature?
Xu Xin's eyes lit up slightly.
This reward is good!
To be honest, Xu Xin would have thought this ability was a bit useless before today.
After all, he has a treehouse fireplace to ward off the cold, and the saltpeter provided by Li Wenxi allows him to enjoy coolness in the summer. Constant temperature is no different.
But thinking about the experiences of people in other areas today, those tree houses that are about to be buried by snow, even if they have tree house fireplaces, are of little use. The temperature inside the tree houses has still dropped to very low temperatures.
Some people in the outer area don't even have ski clothes, so they can't withstand the low temperature. Many people have frozen to death in their tree houses!
With this [constant temperature] ability, he no longer needs to worry about temperature issues in the future!
good.
If such extreme weather occurs again in the future, his tree house will not be afraid!
At this time, the World Channel began to be in chaos again.
"It's over! It's over! The cold winter is finally over!"
"It's over? It's over! There's still one night left!"
"No...why! Why won't the blizzard stop tonight even though winter is over?"
"Crazy, crazy, the tree house is really going to be buried now..."
"I'm going to freeze to death, I'm really going to freeze to death!"
"Why don't we end this cold winter before it snows! Maybe we won't have to face this blizzard! This snow is even heavier than yesterday!"
"Don't worry, it's just for one night. Even if most of the tree house is cold, it won't be too cold near the fire source, right? Can't you sleep next to the fireplace?"
"I've moved the bed to the fireplace, but it's cold too! The fireplace looks like a fake!"
"At least it works...at least it's not like other places, it's even frozen...the water I put in the kitchen for drinking has frozen..."
"But...by the fireplace...I'm afraid it's almost freezing, right?"
"Don't you guys have any snow suits? Don't you have the snow suits you bought in the Points Mall that can withstand temperatures as low as -15 degrees Celsius?"
"Hey, I do. I have snow clothes and I lie down with them. I lie on the bed and laugh while watching them cry."
"I don't have enough points to buy it! I cried... This cold winter gives us no chance to increase our points!"
"Everyone, don't sleep tonight, really don't sleep! You'd better get up and move around, otherwise, you may not be able to sleep at all tonight! It's this temperature now, but the blizzard is still going on! Temperature It will only get lower and lower!”
"That's right! It's going to snow all night long!"
"It's over, it's over, I'm done with it..."
"I want to start a fire on the treehouse floor..."
"Go crazy! Do you want the treehouse to be set on fire!"
"I lit a fire on the workbench, but it was useless. You can't feel the temperature unless you are very close to the flame... They really want us to freeze to death!"
"It's over...my fingers are frozen..."
"Boss...! Bosses from District 188! Bosses from District 1 and District 23! Help us! We don't want to freeze to death!"
"Oh my god, it's only been a few minutes, and the snow outside has already risen a lot!"
"Brothers and sisters, as long as we survive this night, we can usher in a new life! Let's put on more clothes and get active!"
In the world channel, there are now basically survivors from areas where Blizzard has not stopped complaining and making suggestions.
There are actually many survivors in this group.
Although there are currently 30 large formations activated, you must know that only the first ten large formations activated are rewarded.
In other words, only by activating the first ten areas of the formation can we avoid tonight's blizzard.
But... ten large formations does not mean that there are ten regions.
Because among the top ten, District 188, District 1, and District 23 each occupy two!
Their three regions accounted for six quotas, and the remaining four quotas were divided among several other regions.
In other words, of the nearly 150 areas remaining, only seven areas were spared tonight from the blizzard that buried the tree house!
Naturally, all these people on the World Channel were crying and shouting.
Help them?
There are ways to help.
Snow jackets are not a restricted item. One piece costs 100 points, which may help them get through the night.
But with the points Xu Xin currently has, even if they are exhausted, they still won't be able to help hundreds of people.
There are a total of 50,000 to 60,000 people waiting for food.
...Forget it, let them rely on themselves.
His points were not brought by the strong wind. Instead of helping so many people, it would be better to keep them to himself and to them in District 188.
He is not a saint who wants to help everyone he meets.
There are currently more than 3,000 people in District 188, and he can't help them.
As for other areas, let them create it themselves.
At this time, Li Wenxi made a video call.
She was already sitting on the sofa in her tree house, exposing her long white legs and wearing a casual outfit.
It is in stark contrast to those on the World Channel.
"Hey, Xu Xin, have you seen that people in other areas are shouting cold! Do we want to help them? If this continues, they will all die tonight, right? Those people may also become Where are we from District 188?" Li Wenxi took a bite of the apple and said casually.
Judging from her casual look, it was obvious that she was just sighing casually about this matter.
"Then how do you want to help?" Xu Xin held the confused Coco in her arms and rubbed its big tail and asked, "I can't afford to support many people in Snow Lichen."
< br>
"Snow coat? You don't need it." Li Wenxi took another bite of the apple. The crisp sound made Coco's ears twitch twice, and then she raised her little head.
"嘤!"
"Then... there seems to be no other way to help them, right?" Xu Xin gave Coco a blue-level apple, and she immediately started to eat it.
"Well..." Li Wenxi swallowed the apple in her mouth and said with determination, "I think coal should be able to help them!"
"Coal?" Xu Xin was slightly stunned.
"Yes, think about it, my furnace burns coal and burns wood, the efficiency is different, right? Then the heating of the fireplace should be different, right? And," Li Wenxi threw away the apple core in her hand, and said with her face close to the camera, "Recently, your fireplace is powered by coal, right?"
"That's right." Xu Xin nodded.
He has plenty of coal, so he can use it as he likes.
"That's right, my tree house is still made of wood." Li Wenxi clapped her hands, "The temperature in my tree house is obviously several degrees lower than in your tree house! I feel like my tree house is ten About seven or eight degrees, your tree house can be twenty-four or five degrees!”
"Such a big temperature difference?" Xu Xin was a little surprised.
Li Wenxi was the one who came here during this period, and he had never been there before, so naturally he didn't know about it.
"Yes, I just discovered it when I was sleeping last night! I took it off then. Why does your tree house make sleeping more comfortable?" Li Wenxi lay on the sofa. "In addition to the influence of Xiao Keke, there is also the temperature Factor! ”
"Isn't it because you sleep with me?" Xu Xin said with a smile.
"Hehe, that's the reason." Li Wenxi turned over and faced outside the sofa, "So, I think if I give them coal, it might help them. Ah, of course, it depends on what you think, I don't care , I’m just making a suggestion. They don’t have anything we want. If we really want to help, it’s basically charity.”
Coal?
Maybe... it's really possible?
The burning time of a piece of green grade coal is half an hour.
If you want to cover the entire night, each person needs at least twenty pieces of coal.
In total, more than 50,000 people are waiting for food.
...too many.
Can't help.
However, if you just let them warm up when they are about to freeze to death, and give each of them one or two yuan, it won't be a big problem.
After all, Xu Xin allowed her concubine to mine for more than ten minutes, and she obtained tens of thousands of coals.
Help?
In fact, if possible, he didn't want the survivors to die too much.
He always feels that every survivor now may be a force in the future.
If one dies, there will be less strength in the future.
It's okay to help a little as long as it doesn't affect yourself.
"How much coal did you mine here this afternoon?" Xu Xin asked.
"It's not much, just 130,000 to 40,000 yuan, right?" Li Wenxi thought for a while and said.
...that’s not much?
Listening to this amount, he almost thought that Li Wenxi had exhausted the coal mines here!
However, when I think about it in a blink of an eye, this amount of mining is really not much compared to the reserves of a coal mine.
After all, a coal mine can easily contain hundreds of millions of tons of reserves.
On earth, his motherland's largest coal mine has reserves of tens of billions of tons!
One unit of coal is not large, weighing no more than half a catty.
It costs 1.3 to 40,000 yuan and weighs about dozens of tons.
It sounds like a lot, but in terms of total reserves, it's actually just a scratch.
Just sprinkle some water.
Think about it, they have smelted so much steel, and as the raw material for the steel fire, they have consumed countless coals, but the mine pit is getting bigger and bigger.
Their coal resources are still very rich.
This coal mine can basically meet all their future needs for coal.
It's not impossible to send some warmth to people in other areas.
"What, do you really want to help?" Li Wenxi sat up from the sofa, "If you really want to help, I can gather people now and we can all dig coal together!"
"Have you changed from a miner leader to a coal boss?" Xu Xin teased.
"You mind me!" Li Wenxi made a face at him and continued, "Although it's dark now, it's only after four o'clock. Our mining site is several kilometers away from the tree house. I'm afraid something will happen at night so I come back early. Yes, but it doesn’t matter where your coal mine is, it’s only a few hundred meters away from your tree house anyway.”
Indeed, there is no need to worry about safety issues here.
"Then come on, even if you don't help, we still need coal ourselves." Xu Xin nodded.
"Okay, then I'll go call them! By the way, do you want the coal in my hand now?" Li Wenxi turned the camera to face her backpack.
"No need, I still have a lot on hand. Let me put some out first and try the effect."
"Oh ok!"
After hanging up the video, Xu Xin first released a thousand pieces of coal to the world trading platform. The price was the same amount of green-level basic resources. At the same time, he clicked on the [Explorer] group.
In the group, everyone was discussing another matter.
Ji Chaoyang: "Everyone, have you thought about how we are going to treat District 1?"
Wang Lei: "You shouldn't be completely one of your own, right?"
Qin Yunlong: "It's definitely not possible to treat them equally with District 188, right? However, it should be okay to give them cheaper supplies than other districts."
Wen Guixin: "I think so too. I had a pretty good chat with the guy ranked fifth in District 1."
Zhao Xiaochuan: "Then give them the first-level resources. Just make sure they are weaker than us, so as not to be stabbed in the back later. By the way, I had a good chat with their third-ranked guy."< br>
Xu Xin: "There is no news about Shi Wanyun so far."
Ji Chaoyang: "Then let's take a long-term view. My prediction this time has no useful information. It is just a scene of bare jungle, which should be the scene of tomorrow. Tomorrow, there may be no danger."
Xu Xin's eyebrows raised slightly.
Similar to the first stage... a day's rest after the event?
If only that was the case.
"Oh, right."
He told others in the [Explorers] group what he had just thought.
Others spoke immediately.
Ji Chaoyang: "If your coal reserves are sufficient, I agree."
His thoughts should be similar to Xu Xin's.
Wen Guixin: "You are such a good person, Xu Xin. What does it have to do with us whether they die or not? Wen Xi still has to dig coal for them."
Li Wenxi: "Oh, it's okay. This coal pit is easy to dig, and I was the one who proposed the idea."
Wen Guixin: "That's right. If you two parties say so, then I have no objection."
She actually still didn't understand, but she didn't stop him.
Qin Yunlong: "I think it can be saved. We are all survivors. Now that we have allied with District 1, maybe... we can all be together in the future? I can also bring people here to help mine."
Qi Xuefei: "If it's not troublesome, then help them. It would be best if we could become partners in the future. Even if we become enemies in the future, they can't do us any harm, right?"
Everyone's opinions were unanimous.
That is, let me help you first.
Nowadays, no one cares much about regional confrontations. After all, they are too strong.
"Okay, I get it."
Xu Xin put down her watch.
At this time, the sound of condensation at the portal exit came from outside the tree house.
It's Lou Feier and the other three who are back.
"How's it going, boss, we did a good job, right!" Zeng Tao saw Xu Xin peeking out of the window, raised her head with some pride and said, "We are the terminator of the cold winter!"
"Okay, little Taozi, stop yelling, what are you proud of by taking a shortcut?" Lou Fei'er poured cold water on her.
"What did you say!"
The two women started arguing again, while Jin Yue silently returned to her tree house.
Xu Xin glanced at the World Channel.
"Brothers! Boss Xu Xin's new coal can maintain the temperature of the tree house above 10 degrees!"
"Really or not?!"
"Made, they were robbed!"
"Smart people grab it the moment the big guy comes on the shelves. No matter what it is, just grab it!"
"Boss, Boss Xu Xin, please give me coal! I'm going to freeze to death!"
Sure enough, coal can barely provide heating.
At this time, the portal fluctuated, and Li Wenxi came with the mining brigade.
She raised her head and winked at Xu Xin, then led the mining team to dig coal.
Xu Xin smiled, put the remaining coal in his hand on the World Trading Platform, limited it to three yuan per person, and made a note to use it when the cold was unbearable. Then he swung down from the treehouse to dig coal with Li Wenxi. Went.
In two hours, Xu Xin listed a total of nearly 200,000 pieces of coal on the world trading platform.
The entire world channel is filled with praise and reverence for Xu Xin and the explorer.
"This should be enough, right?" Li Wenxi looked at the time and waved her hand, "It's time for get off work, everyone, go home and rest!"
"Okay!" Everyone cheered and then dispersed.
Their faces were dirty, but they were smiling.
After all, they also know what is happening all over the world and how happy they are in their current situation.
"A total of one million copies of coal were mined, and 200,000 copies were distributed. The rest is enough for us to use for a long time." Li Wenxi smiled, "The mining efficiency of this coal is much higher than that of iron ore."< br>
"But there are too many places to use it. Let's go back. Your face is all dusty." Xu Xin gently wiped her face with his hand. As a result, his hands were not clean either. There was a fingerprint on his face.
"As if you are clean!" Li Wenxi touched his face with dirty hands, then looked at his painted face and burst into laughter.
Instead of going back to her own treehouse, she went back to Xu Xin's treehouse with her.
Then the two walked into the bathroom together.
Mandarin duck bath.
After taking a bath, Li Wenxi lay on the bed with a flushed face, her red lips slightly parted, and breathing lightly.
"...You guy, you can't go to bed before..." She gently kicked Xu Xin, who was lying next to him and sliding his watch.
"Hey..." Coco turned over on the bedside, her big tail hanging down beside the bed, and continued to sleep.
"The water temperature in your bath is too high. I feel uncomfortable because of the heat." Xu Xin laughed, and at the same time crossed out the shadow of the watch and lay down on the bed.
Most things were resolved.
Even Shi Wanyun, there is still no reply till now.
Forget it, if there’s anything else, let’s talk about it tomorrow.
He did everything he had to do. I hope these people don't die too many. (End of chapter)
