Chapter 19 The Wandering Merchant

"It's so friendly here!" Fang Yuan couldn't help but sigh after returning to the empty island and sitting at the table eating baked potatoes.

As expected, Steve still belongs to the empty island rather than reality. Although he has extraordinary power, he still feels uncomfortable.

After his small field began to produce crops, Fang Yuan finally had other food besides apples, bread made from wheat, potatoes that could be baked, and only carrots, which he could only eat in their original flavor.

(If he is willing, he can actually make golden carrots)

But with milk, eggs, wheat, and the candy dropped by the witch, Fang Yuan was a little surprised to find that he could actually make a cake?

For the sake of his pitiful resources, Fang Yuan finally gave up on this idea and went to build a ranch instead.

Now that there is a farm, although there is only one cow and one chicken in the pasture, he firmly believes that there will be many cows and chickens in the future, so he needs to prepare for a rainy day.

First, he took out a few pieces of soil and paved a road to the open space, where his newly planned pasture was. The soil extended from the pasture and would give the new pasture a layer of grass color.

In this way, both cattle and sheep can enjoy the treatment of eating grass.

Although there was only one cow, Fang Yuan still solemnly guided it to a new pasture with wheat and carefully kept it inside.

"Eat some wheat first, Niu Niu. In two days there will be grass to eat!"

He touched the cow's belly, and then took out another bucket of milk. This was for himself to drink, not for outside use.

The chicken farm didn't need these. Fang Yuan went over to pick up the eggs on the ground and counted 15 of them, which was close to a group of eggs. Naturally, he smashed them all out without hesitation and hit the chickens.

It howled.

However, the result was gratifying. Fang Yuan directly smashed out three little chickens and let them hang around the big chicken at the beginning, making the empty island a little more crow-like.

Fang Yuan ran to get some wheat seeds again. Now that wheat can be planted normally, there will naturally be no shortage of wheat seeds. He fed each one luxuriously.

Wait for the chicks to grow to the same size, then feed them one more time to give birth to new chicks.

Fang Yuan rubbed his head and thought, then ran to collect a bunch of trees, dug rocks for a while, and thought about what he should do next.

First, he has to rescue another zombie villager so that both villagers can be liberated. In this way, he can naturally recruit more villagers for trade.

But saving the villagers is never something that can be accomplished overnight, he has to do it one by one.

Now, of course, we need to save two villagers first, because one villager can't reproduce, so we can't make more tools to change their jobs, so it doesn't make much sense.

And two villagers can breed infinite villagers, which means infinite shops and trading centers. What a great tool man!

Converting zombie villagers into villagers requires two very special processes.

First, use weakness potions on them to make them completely weak before they can be treated with special methods.

Second, this special treatment method is very simple, just feed one golden apple to each person.

It sounds easy, but in an island world where supplies are scarce, it is indeed not easy to do this well. Let's analyze it bit by bit.

The first is the potion of weakness. Not to mention the materials needed for the potion of weakness, let’s talk about the brewing stand needed to refine the potion. Fang Yuan cannot make it here because the brewing stand requires blaze rods, and the output method of blaze rods is very fixed, that is

Dropped by the Blaze after killing it.

But blazes will only appear in the lower realm. Obsidian is needed to make a portal in the lower realm. One obsidian requires a whole piece of magma. A portal in the lower realm requires at least 10 obsidian pieces.

There is only one way to grow magma, which is the dripping stone cone and magma bucket sold by wandering merchants, but both of them require emeralds to purchase, and emeralds can only be obtained by trading with villagers. This is simply an endless loop!

This road was blocked, so naturally he had no choice but to find another way. Fang Yuan set his mind on something else.

The way to obtain golden apples is much simpler. He needs a blast furnace to refine gold equipment. Each gold equipment can burn a small amount of gold particles. Nine gold particles can be synthesized into one gold ingot. Eight gold ingots surround the apple.

You can make a golden apple!

If you think about it this way, 72 gold grains can be used to make a golden apple. Fang Yuan took a look at the gold equipment in the box and found that it was enough?

But the prerequisite for being able to smelt gold particles is that a blast furnace must be produced. The blast furnace requires five iron ingots and a furnace to synthesize. This is a very long time. After all, you have to wait until Fang Yuan can produce two more pieces.

Only if the iron comes.

However, Fang Yuan is also someone who has watched a lot of videos of big guys. Apart from making things like weak potion yourself, there is actually another way, which is to let others use it.

This involves a more interesting knowledge, that is, another creature that can use potions - witches.

Unlike most monsters, the witch does not rely on weapons or projectiles to harm others, she relies on special magic - potions.

When the witch is injured, she will take healing potions to restore her health.

When the player is far away, she will throw poison, weakness, slowness and even instant damage potions, and she will drink fire resistance, swiftness, healing and water breathing potions.

Moreover, the witch itself has the characteristic of being 85% immune to magic damage, which means that except for frontal killing, the witch will not have the possibility of sudden death.

This is a survival trait that is rare in MC. She is a monster but can survive in any harsh environment, instead of just sitting there waiting to die like other creatures.

These effects rely on various potions that she can fish out of the void at any time, so in the hands of many elders, they will regard her as an automatic potion-using tool and use it effectively.

The weak potion needed to transform the zombie villagers will also be thrown by the witch, which gives Fang Yuan the capital to operate this matter.

But first, he had to save five pieces of iron, find a new zombie villager, and put it into the villager's hut using the same method as before.

This was not difficult. Fang Yuan ran to the monster spawning tower and looked carefully with squinted eyes. Unfortunately, there were no traces of the two monsters he needed in this batch of monsters. He no longer hesitated and waved.

Sword killing!

Soon these monsters once again became experience points in his hands, as well as materials and equipment all over the ground. Fang Yuan waited for the arrival of a new batch of monsters, and at the same time classified these things into categories.

In order to better identify the items on his body, he also made a special box to store his belongings.

Every time he wants to go out on Sky Island, he can go to this box to get something he thinks he might need. It's not too troublesome to get it now. After all, he can summon the portal at any time and come here to get it.

A matter of seconds.

If there was nothing else on him, he could sort out all the belongings on his body and throw them in front of several boxes bit by bit.

This is also a method that Fang Yuan discovered to save time. Anyway, there is no server in this world, and the blocks and materials discarded on the ground will not disappear no matter how long they are, so he can safely throw them out and sort them into categories.

Next time you go to those boxes, just don't put them in them.

This is also the disadvantage of the original version of MC. Although the current version already comes with a synthesis table, you can easily obtain everything that can be synthesized.

However, there is still little movement in things like one-click sorting and automatic loading. Until the development of red stone technology and Fang Yuan can make an item classification machine, he can still only manually classify items by himself.

Fortunately, it is just a personal empty island now, rather than a large area with many people, otherwise Fang Yuan might not have time to sort it out.

After making up his mind to build an item classification machine in the future, Fang Yuan obediently classified these items. There were more and more gold equipment and many other types of equipment, but iron and diamond equipment were quite rare.

It doesn't matter.

After the future village trading center is built, you can exchange emeralds for whatever preparation you want, which will be easy.

Fang Yuan was thinking this, but what he took out under his hand made his eyes light up, "Another iron ingot!"

He opened a box without a nameplate, which contained some diamond equipment, special dropped materials and two iron ingots, "Now there are three!"

Fortunately, after he reclassified this large amount of materials, the target he needed appeared among the monsters dropped from the monster spawning tower.

Fang Yuan saw a pair of feet that were different from ordinary zombies. There were traces of clothes on these feet. This was the characteristic of zombie villagers!

He climbed up again along the ladder that had not been removed, knocked open the pillars of the monster spawning tower, and put three and a half bricks up again to prevent new monsters from falling when transporting zombie villagers.

Moreover, Fang Yuan learned the lesson from the last time and did not rashly open the half brick in front of him, but left the zombie villagers running around inside.

He first ran to the furnace nearby, took out the charcoal that had been burned before, and then went to the witch's drop box to get some sticks. He easily synthesized a torch, inserted the torch from a high place, and lit it to spawn monsters.

tower.

Then he carefully took out the stone ax, stood in front of the monster spawning tower, and trimmed the feet of the remaining monsters bit by bit.

The benefits of the ax's high attack power were obvious. Fang Yuan didn't even need to jump to chop, but rather simply killed and eliminated these monsters. He was also lucky enough to pick up a bow enchanted with "Infinite".

Then it was time to build a new small dark room. He still threw a leather hat into it and asked the zombie villagers to put it on themselves. Fang Yuan walked to the top of the wall and opened the block of the closed monster spawning tower.

This time, the zombie villagers no longer hit the wall, but ran towards him all the way, and then were blocked by the wall, so they had no choice but to rage against the cobblestone wall.

Fang Yuan modified the barrier and directly used the cobblestone wall to guide him. Standing outside the wall, watching the zombie villagers become helpless and furious, he could better guide them into the small dark room.

After another busy period, by the time Fang Yuan locked the zombie villager in front of him into a small dark room, it was almost getting dark.

He had no choice but to run back and block the door of the monster spawning tower, pull out half of the bricks in the middle, and let the monster spawning tower continue to refresh, and then he was ready to go back to eat and sleep.

Eating in MC is a kind of enjoyment. After all, it directly replenishes physical strength and satiety. No matter how much you eat, you won’t feel full. It’s a great experience.

Today's dinner was bread slices with mashed potatoes. Fang Yuan tried his best to make some flowers with a limited amount of ingredients, which was a rare pleasure.

Of course, the best experience is still sleeping. That bed can be said to be the source of happiness for Fang Yuan. He always feels that his body is released when he sleeps, which is so refreshing.

It was as if he was not sleeping, but had entered a spa and had a perfect Thai spa. When he woke up, not only was he exhausted, but he even felt recharged and radiant.

Since the bed was made, he rarely sleeps outside alone. This wool bed is so comfortable!

"Puff!" At this moment, a completely different voice appeared in Fang Yuan's ears. This voice was something he had never heard before. It seemed a little familiar, but also a little strange.

"That's not right. I have made the platform so safe. Could there still be monsters coming?" Fang Yuan was slightly doubtful, but he quickly got rid of his doubts. There is no point in thinking about it here.

Yeah, why not go take a look.

The armor on his body gave him a lot of confidence. Fang Yuan walked out of his hut and looked around in the night to see what kind of monster it was.

Soon he saw the "monster" himself. It turned out that it was not a monster, but two alpacas that looked stupid.

They were covered with two pieces of cloth, and they seemed to have owners. Fang Yuan immediately recognized that these were no ordinary alpacas, they were merchant alpacas!

"If it's a merchant alpaca, does that mean..." Fang Yuan had a look of surprise on his face. The alpacas were there, so the profiteer should also be in this range.

He circled around the woods, and following the ropes on the two alpacas, he quickly found the profiteer in the woods who seemed like a headless fly - the wandering businessman.

Wandering merchants are neutral creatures similar to villagers. They will be refreshed in a certain place with alpacas. They have the same emerald trading system as villagers, but the trading methods of wandering merchants are quite different from villagers.

The first point is that the wandering merchant's transaction column is arranged vertically with six grids, instead of one grid for ordinary villagers; second, the wandering merchant only has six random options, which will not be refreshed due to transactions, nor will they be changed due to transactions.

Unlocked, he is fixed after all.

Moreover, the wandering merchant only sells items and does not purchase things, which means that if you don't have emeralds, you can't get anything from him in any way.

Moreover, the wandering merchant's items are not unlimited. He will re-lock the items after several transactions, making it impossible for you to trade them.

If you want to change, just wait for him to disappear and wait for a new wandering merchant to appear!
