Chapter 21: The First Batch of Resources Arrives
Cars of gold, silver, copper, and iron were sealed in wooden boxes and delivered in front of Chen Xiyi’s stone house.
However, most of them were copper, iron, and coal, with gold and silver being relatively scarce, totaling only about 10 boxes.
Gold and silver are hard currency, so the quantity is definitely less than copper, iron, and coal. Even if they have it, the Three Great Families cannot be expected to send all of them.
“Immortal, this is a total of ten thousand stones of gold, silver, copper, iron, and various other materials like stone sulfur. What do you think?” The one speaking was the head of the Song Family, who was in charge of escorting the supplies this time.
Since the Wu Family was responsible for the canal, and the Li Family was in charge of transportation, the task of handling the delivery naturally fell to the Song Family.
Chen Xiyi did not bother to count, casually taking out twelve portions of food, most of which were items that could either restore health or improve mood, providing a pleasant feeling.
“Well done, I won’t count. I believe you won’t be short-weighted. As for the extra two portions, you can consider them as additional gifts to the ten thousand stones, otherwise the three families might find it difficult to divide ten portions among themselves.”
For Chen Xiyi, these food items were basically worthless. However, if used to strengthen his resource channels, what harm would there be in giving away a little extra?
The head of the Song Family was pleased. Originally, if there were only ten portions, there would definitely be no leftovers for him. It would either go to the Wu Family managing the canal or the Li Family handling transportation. Since the Song Family contributed the least apart from financial support, he had no expectations. But now with twelve portions, it was only natural for him to receive a share.
“Thank you, Immortal. Thank you, Immortal. Is there anything else you’d like to instruct?” The head of the Song Family respectfully asked after receiving the warm food.
“Unload the goods and leave,” Chen Xiyi said simply.
Hearing this, the head of the Song Family was a bit hesitant. “Immortal, where should the goods be unloaded? They won’t fit in your house.”
“No need, just unload them in the same place,” Chen Xiyi said.
“Yes, Immortal. I’ll arrange it immediately,” the head of the Song Family said, then turned to make arrangements.
Perhaps due to the pressure of Chen Xiyi’s immortal persona, the unloading and departure proceeded swiftly.
Looking at the wooden boxes piled up on the ground, the water coiling around Chen Xiyi’s stone armor leaped out like a river and flowed outward.
【Jianghu asked you for 5 units of water, and you generously provided it】
【Jianghu used Water Control and manipulated 5 units of water】
【Jianghu used Water Magic to manipulate 5 units of water again】
As the departing head of the Song Family turned around at the sound, he saw a flow of water rushing out and landing directly on the wooden boxes. In an instant, the boxes dissolved into white light, blending into Chen Xiyi as he moved forward.
“Truly a remarkable immortal, effortlessly collecting these ten thousand stone materials with a wave of a hand. It’s a pity the time is short, and there’s only this amount. They must make good use of the time,” the head of the Song Family sighed deeply while holding the twelve portions of food.
Witnessing the Carefree Immortal casting spells firsthand this time, the head was greatly impressed, considering that if he were to follow the path, he might possess similar abilities.
【Jianghu used Water Magic to inflict 1 point of durability damage on the wooden box】
【You have obtained: 1 wooden board, 1 unit of iron ore】
【Jianghu used Water Magic to inflict 1 point of durability damage on the wooden box】
【You have gained: 1 piece of wooden board, 1 unit of coal】
【Jianghu….】
The waves scattered, and the originally stacked wooden box had already disappeared.
This move by Jianghu was judged as an attack, so the wooden box was shattered, and the materials inside all spilled out, unaffected by the attack.
This is probably because game skills cannot damage dropped items.
Then he took a look at the resources in his inventory. Besides iron ore and coal, there were also sand, sulfur, and so on.
The previously mentioned stone sulfur refers to sulfur.
The most abundant is iron ore, followed by coal, and finally copper ore and sulfur. As for gold and silver, there are also a total of 12 units, obviously divided equally among the three families.
There are also various materials such as jade, gemstones, and so on. Fortunately, these things are secondary processed products, similar to wooden boards, counted by the piece rather than by unit. Otherwise, it’s hard to say how many pieces are needed to make up one unit.
“I want to build the top-tier equipment with the best tools in the crafting laboratory.”
With these materials, by crafting the laboratory equipment, he will be able to enhance his survivability significantly.
“However, it seems that even the top-tier equipment feels a bit lacking.”
Chen Xiyi found that compared to the fairies, his top-tier equipment was really subpar.
It’s like the difference between a beginner village protagonist and a major boss when compared.
“It seems that corresponding modules are needed to obtain better equipment and tools.”
In short, the home world is the core, and he needs various modules, functions, skills, etc., to act as MODs, DLCs, and so on to enrich the game.
Otherwise, with just the core game, he cannot obtain better items.
“I wonder if there are modules or the like in this world.” Chen Xiyi returned to his home and started making the laboratory.
The laboratory was quickly crafted, the progress bar quickly filled.
After placing it next to the workshop, he took out a large amount of iron ore and threw it into the furnace. He wanted to make steel ingots.
For iron ingots, only 2 units of iron ore are needed, but for steel ingots, it requires 5 units of iron ore and 5 units of coal. Fortunately, he had enough iron ore and coal on him to craft a full set of equipment.
An alloy set, made from steel ingots, is much stronger than equipment made from iron ingots, in terms of durability and stats. Currently, it is the top-tier in his crafting list.
Therefore, Chen Xiyi felt the need for more modules to help enhance his strength.
Saying this, he threw gold, silver, and copper into the furnace, these are the three materials for his enchantment, which means he only has three types of enchantments.
