Crossing the wilderness to survive, starting with a broken kitchen knife

Zhang Shi selected among them, and because he had reclaimed some farmland, he found some high-quality seeds, farmland improvement cards, and other urgently needed resources for priority trading.

Among them, a familiar ID was Zhang Shi who was chatting privately through the friend list. The props he sent attracted Zhang Shi's attention.

Liu Yu: "Brother Zhang Shi, are you interested in exchanging [Stone House Design Drawing (Green) X1] for [Bone Bow] and [Revenant Hunter Set]?"

Zhang Shi is very interested in the stone house design. Now with Gong Yi, Zhang Shi has the opportunity to transform from an arms dealer to a real estate businessman through his learning ability.

"Nowadays, most survivors have upgraded to shelters above stone houses. This blueprint is of little use. And although the equipment I sell is only of high quality, it comes with additional attributes. If you want to exchange it, you have to pay more."

Liu Yu seemed to have expected this to happen, and immediately sent another prop message.

[Gunpowder Formula (Green) X1]

To add this thing, I just need ten additional sets of fine iron armor.

Zhang Shi didn't expect Liu Yu to be able to get the gunpowder formula. It seems that he specializes in mining and he does know a lot about this stuff.

Afraid that the other party would regret it, Zhang Shi added the equipment as requested and then decisively clicked the deal.

Later, Zhang Shi specially selected some useful design drawings for trading, and this clearance sale ended successfully.

It happened to be noon, and Zhang Shi's early morning recruitment had been completed. As usual, soldiers from each branch were assigned to squad leaders, and Zhang Shi called on everyone to stop working and enter the fort for lunch.

The current escort team has expanded to 22 people, and it is a bit crowded to sit together and eat together. Ge Dalong proposed to build a canteen specifically for the soldiers.

Zhang Shi happened to have a stone house design drawing in his hand, and immediately handed it to Gong Yi at the dining table, asking him to study the drawing first. If he succeeded in learning, he would build some stone houses for daily use by the guards. As for Gong Er and Gong San, they continued to refine the materials and waited until they had a rest at night to study the design drawings given to them by Zhang Shi. The subsequent work awaited Zhang Shi's arrangements.

If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. After accumulating a certain amount of fine steel, Zhang Shi plans to replace everyone in the shelter with fine steel equipment.

Considering that the number of people will continue to increase, Zhang Shi plans to clean up the area around the shelter to eliminate potential threats.

Give Ge Dalong the seeds and farmland improvement cards obtained from the morning transaction and let him deal with the newly reclaimed farmland. He re-planned a piece of land and surrounded it with gold and stone walls. He planned to build a training ground here specifically for the guards to use to improve their combat effectiveness.

At present, all forces are recruiting troops, and the atmosphere in the entire wilderness world has become extremely anxious under the extreme heat and natural disasters. Zhang Shi has to be prepared to deal with it, at least to have enough means to protect himself.

Under the scorching sun, after Zhang Shi completed the expansion of his territory, he was sweating profusely from the heat and hurried to the room, where he happened to meet Zhao Feng.

He was shaking the cattail leaf fan, his clothes were soaked with sweat, and he was walking into the room carrying a large basin of ice cubes.

Seeing Zhang Shi, Zhao Feng complained.

"I'm talking about Shitou, this is already the fourth day. According to the past rules, the temperature should have dropped a bit. Why is it still so hot? There is no sign of cooling down."

Zhang Shi is also a little confused. The high temperature has lasted for several days. If it continues like this, many wild vegetation will die and wild animals will not be able to survive, which may cause unknown dangers.

“Are there any new hints in Revelation?”

Zhao Feng shook his head with a bitter look on his face.

"I've been paying attention, but there hasn't been any change on the parchment."

…

By sunset, the weather had finally cooled down a bit, and new soldiers had been recruited. Gong Yi didn't miss a beat, successfully learned the stone house design drawings and built the first batch of stone houses.

Zhang Shi replaced the original wooden house and arranged it properly, including dormitories, canteens, and bathrooms, ensuring the living conditions of the soldiers to the greatest extent.

During dinner, Zhang Shi came to the cafeteria specially to eat. The quality of the meals has not changed. It is still what Zhang Shi eats and what the soldiers eat. All meals are made by Xiaomei and the supporting soldiers. Catering for more than 20 people is not an easy task, but with the help of Xiaomei's perfect mechanized calculations and support soldiers, this difficulty was easily overcome.

After dinner, Lao Bai reported to Zhang Shi as usual.

"Lord, as the population grows, our food reserves are also being consumed rapidly. Although it can be sustained in the short term, it may not make ends meet in the long run. I suggest that under non-combat conditions, the expenditure on food for soldiers can be appropriately reduced... "

Zhang Shi interrupted Lao Bai with a wave of his hand and responded without any doubt.

"Meals for soldiers will still be based on the current standards for the time being. I will find a solution to the food issue."

Lao Bai nodded in agreement, and then reported on the situation of livestock and farmland.

"Kun chickens have hatched new chicks; sheep have begun to give birth on a large scale; wild boars are also growing up rapidly. The golden rice sown before has matured, and Mr. Ge has sun-dried and germinated the first batch of rice. Tonight It can be sown on a large scale and harvest can be expected in three days.”

Zhang Shi was a little surprised by the growth rate of livestock and crops, and thought that it might be the effect of spiritual energy that further gave birth to them.

Ge Dalong was doing house allocation work nearby. When he heard Lao Bai mentioning him, he got up and walked towards Zhang Shi.

Zhang Shi deliberately showed a surprised expression, with his mouth wide open, as exaggerated as he wanted.

"Lao Ge, you are really secretive. As a young master, you are even proficient in farming. I really admire you."

Ge Dalong jokingly pushed Zhang Shi, "Who told you that to work in an office building, you have to be ignorant of grains? Your thoughts are very dangerous. This is a sign of being out of touch with the masses."

Ge Dalong selected Jinguang rice in advance, which undoubtedly solved Zhang Shi's urgent need. Three days later, a large amount of golden rice matured. Although after secondary cultivation, the quality of the land has also been reduced to the upper limit. Many rice seedlings are only of high quality. However, at this stage, food is too much and not enough to satisfy the soldiers. The belly is the most important thing.

Ge Dalong had a rare quarrel with Zhang Shi for a while, but the news from Zhao Feng made their faces darken.

"There is an enemy situation!"

The two quickly climbed to the outer wall of the fortress, and Zhang Shi was looking out with a telescope. When he saw the two coming, he pointed in a direction along the river bank.

"Cai Yi found someone's shoe prints there when he was patrolling. According to him, there were about three people in number. There are no traces now. They should be scouts from other forces."

Seeing Zhang Shi and Ge Dalong deep in thought, Zhao Feng added.

"I guess it's the guys from the Eagle Regiment who are targeting us again while the barrier disappears."

Zhang Shi nodded, called Zhang Dazhuang and Lao Bai, and gave instructions.

"Let us know, we will send people to take turns to keep vigil tonight. If there is any situation, we will report it as soon as possible. Everyone, please work harder and be ready to fight at any time."

The two of them were ordered to go down and arrange the work.

Zhang Shi sent out the Black Mist Guard again and asked him to cooperate with the scout patrols. Potential threats could be eliminated directly without reporting them.

Zhang Shi's face was gloomy and his voice was cold.

"The Eagles have come to trouble me over and over again, but it seems I haven't been harsh enough to hurt them."
