Chapter 57 Lunch Time
Although the items in the treasure box were a bit unsatisfactory, Xiao Jie was still quite satisfied with this harvest.
These junk equipment can at least be sold for some copper coins, and so many copper coins were sold.
Besides, isn't there an unidentified stone seal? It might be a good thing.
"Brother Feng, let's continue and get rid of the last demon. I feel that the method to open the Tian family mansion will probably fall on Tian Daniu."
There is only one of the three demons left who has not been beaten, so logically speaking, they should have not escaped.
Xiao Jie shook his head, "It's already noon. Let's go back to eat and clean up our backpack first. Besides, I've run out of arrows, so I need to buy more."
In fact, there are still more than a dozen of them, found from the bone chewer. I don’t know how the arrow recovery mechanism of this game works. Xiao Jie shot forty arrows from the giant rat, and almost all of them hit the body. Touch the corpse. At that time, only thirteen arrows were recovered, and there was an urgent need to replenish some.
He could tell that it was okay to fight small monsters, but if he wanted to fight big monsters, it would be safer to use a bow and arrow.
The two returned to the village along the same route, just in time for lunch.
He made himself a pack of instant noodles and while waiting for the noodles to be ready, Xiao Jie cleaned out his backpack.
First, he sold all the junk equipment in his bag. Of course, Xiao Jie still picked through it before selling it. The equipment on his body was not much better, and there was still room for replacement.
Finally, I gathered together a whiteboard equipment.
Head: Old Man Bamboo Hat.
Body: Leather armor.
Hands: Cotton gauntlets.
Legs: Farmer’s trousers.
Feet: Lynx leather boots (blue)
Back: Drifter cloak.
Weapons: Wild Goose Feather Sword, Iron-Inlaid Shield, Hunting Bow, Rough Feather Arrows.
This kind of equipment looks pretty cool when you put it on.
Eight pieces of junk equipment were sold for a total of 345 coins.
Six pieces of rat skin were sold for another 132 coins.
There were also 289 coins found in the box.
As well as the drop of the scarecrow, after some calculations, the harvest in the morning was astonishing, and I gained more than 1,200 articles.
This makes money much faster than working part-time.
Next, supplies need to be replenished.
The first thing was to buy arrows. Considering that the arrows were all shot, he decided to buy more this time.
I took a look at the prices of different arrows.
Rough feathered arrow, +1 stab. 5 pieces of paper.
Wild goose feather arrow, +2 stab. 10 pieces of paper.
Wolf fang arrow, +3 stab. 20 pieces of paper.
Xiao Jie decisively gave up the idea of upgrading arrows. It was too much of a loss to pay such a high price for this damage bonus. It was better to use cheap ones.
Xiao Jie directly replenished the number of feather arrows to 100. This thing is also considered a consumable, the more the better.
It cost more than 400 yuan directly.
The weapon and shield were repaired, and another 73 coins were spent.
Fortunately, rat meat can be used as dog food, otherwise it would be another expense.
A dog's health recovery relies entirely on eating, which consumes a lot of food if the battle is fierce.
By the way, I also need to buy two Dali Pills. I took two to replenish my strength when I was kiting the giant rat, which is another hundred coins.
By the way, dogs have food, and people also need to eat and buy steamed buns... Fighting monsters and upgrading consumes significantly more physical strength, and the more physical strength is consumed, the lower the satiety level...
Xiao Jie calculated that the supplies alone would cost six to seven hundred yuan, and more than half of the morning's profit was gone in the blink of an eye.
He looked at the only 665 coins left in his bag. Xiao Jie scratched his head helplessly.
No, we can't just sit back and have nothing. We have to find ways to save money. By the way, I just happened to pick up a recipe this morning, so I might as well learn some cooking skills. At least I can save some money by making my own food.
Find the chef at the restaurant and propose to become his apprentice.
The cook looked smug, "If you want to learn cooking, you can't teach me for free. If you pay 500 yuan as apprenticeship fee, I will accept you as an apprentice."
Xiao Jie decisively handed over the money. "Hahaha, it's really refreshing. Okay, let me teach you the basic skills of cooking first.
The first is fire roasting. Natural ingredients should be cooked using the simplest method. Grilling food with fire can make the food more delicious. For example, if you are a hunter, you can cook the meat from the hunt in this way.
Of course, you can also boil it in water. Although the taste is a bit bland, it can retain the nutrients of the food to the greatest extent, such as bird eggs. Boiling them is much better than eating them raw.
If you have wheat on hand, you can also use it to make steamed buns...
If you want to learn more advanced cooking skills, you can, but that will cost extra money. My skills are all ancestral recipes, so I can't teach you them in vain. "
[System prompt: You have learned the life skill [Basic Cooking], you have learned the cooking recipe: barbecue, you have learned the cooking recipe: boiled bird eggs, you have learned the cooking recipe: steamed buns, the content of your skill book has been increased. 】
Xiao Jie opened the skill book and checked the newly learned skills.
Not bad. Although I spent 500 Wen, I finally got three entry-level recipes, so I can make simple food.
He used the recipe directly, so there was another recipe.
Barbecuing: requires animal meat and cooking fire. Restores 20 points of satiety and increases your physical strength recovery speed by 10% for 30 minutes.
Boiled eggs: Requires bird eggs and fire for cooking. Restore 10 points of satiety.
Steamed buns: requires wheat, water, and cooking fire. Restore 10 points of satiety.
Pastoral scones: requires wheat, leeks, bird eggs, and fire for cooking. Restore 30 points of satiety.
Currently, only barbecue has materials to make it. Making barbecue requires animal meat. All animal meat such as venison and mutton meet the requirements, including rat meat.
It just so happens that the rat meat in the bag can come in handy.
Xiao Jie took advantage of the fire on the stove in the restaurant and started to bake it.
While they were roasting, they saw me walking in. He was here to buy food.
"Hey, Brother Feng, what are you doing? Barbecue? You can't just buy this food, so why bother?"
"Is your family very rich?" Xiao Jie was grilling meat and sipping instant noodles.
"A hundred to a hundred thousand, I plan to spend all the money on the game, become a krypton gold boss, and maximize my gaming ability. After all, money will be nothing more than an external possession when I become an immortal."
Xiao Jie said speechlessly, "You want to be a krypton gold boss with only a million dollars? You may be able to do it in other games, but don't forget that a copper coin costs ten yuan in this game. You have a million dollars." , it can be exchanged for one hundred thousand copper coins, one hundred taels of silver.
Although the equipment, food, and various props are very cheap in the early stage, the tide will rise in the future. The higher the level, the more expensive the materials will be. How long can you last with one million?
Maybe in the future, a high-end piece of equipment or a powerful skill will cost more than a hundred taels.
Therefore, it is best to learn a professional skill that can repay the investment. In this way, as the skill level increases, the ability to make money will also increase. If the operation is done well, it can make up for the consumption to a large extent.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to learn skills just by relying on the few copper coins you get from killing monsters.
Let’s just talk about this food. The steamed buns we eat in a day will cost dozens or hundreds of coins. In the future, as the level increases, the satiety level will be higher, and naturally more food will be needed. It will cost thousands of coins a month. , it’s a lot of money to add up to a lot. "
I was speechless when I wanted to become an immortal, "Brother Feng, you are right, then I also want to learn cooking?"
"No, let's each learn a craft. We can help each other in the future. I'll learn cooking, and the food I make will be enough for both of us. You can learn carpentry, make arrows, or make alchemy or medicine in the future. , or forging or something like that.”
While talking, Xiao Jie had already roasted all the rat meat in the bag.
I also roasted the rat meat I picked up before I became a fairy.
【Rat meat (cooking ingredient)
Item introduction: The meat of a big rat can be used for cooking or fed to pets to restore a certain amount of life and increase a small amount of happiness. 】
【Barbeque (food)
Use: Restore 20 points of satiety, increasing your stamina recovery speed by 10% for 30 minutes.
Item introduction: Fragrant barbecue can be used to restore physical strength, increase satiety, or be fed to pets to restore a certain amount of life and increase a large amount of happiness. 】
A simple cooking process can instantly transform something into something magical.
Xiao Jie roasted all the rat meat of the two of them.
After thinking about it, he went to the farm to find a farmer and learned the two farming sub-skills [harvesting] and [plowing].
Because it is the most basic job, these two skills can be obtained without spending money.
When you have nothing to do, you can harvest wild wheat from the wheat fields and make steamed buns to eat.
This saves at least two to three hundred coins at once, and the longer the time goes by, the more money will be saved. Moreover, as a high-end food, barbecue has a temporary BUFF, which is an unexpected gain.
