In the blink of an eye, it has been three days since visitors came online.
In the past three days, Zhu Yuting has only been offline twice, experiencing what players often say is the feeling of having a hard time.
I also initially figured out Canaan’s tourist system and gradually adapted to the online rhythm.
She usually logs off at 8pm in real time, takes a rest, washes up, replenishes her nutrition, moves her body that is stiff from lying down for a long time, then takes a nap, and spends the rest of her time online.
The passage of time at a ratio of one to two made her feel that every day was greatly extended. She had to spend two days and one night online every time. Physically and psychologically, she was in a period of rapid adjustment, and her biological clock was completely disrupted.
.
It is online today, it is still late at night online, but the lights are brightly lit everywhere. Players and more tourists are not affected by day and night, continuing the rhythm of the day, playing games, and working part-time.
Well, nowadays tourists can only work for other people, whether it is for players, national servers, or NPCs. It is impossible for them to be independent, let alone start an independent business.
The online location was an inn owned by a smart NPC owner in a corner of the city. She had to withdraw from the dormitory of the Chinese server. It was not that the conditions were not good, but that it was too good. It was too luxurious for her and the rent was too expensive.
The conditions of this cramped, dark, and dilapidated courtyard are far inferior to those of the national server, but it is cheap. It only costs 5 coppers a day, and you can live with good friends you met online... How nice is it?
How strange!
The body in the game is lying on a large bunk. Populus euphratica 'sleeps' on her left, and Jianghe 'sleeps' on her right. There are people crowded together. A total of a dozen female tourists 'sleep' on the upper floor, and below.
There were more men like Fang Qinghong, and they were packed like sardine cans.
Zhu Yuting sat up with difficulty and saw that many people on the left and right had already come online and left, but the two good friends on the left and right were still like corpses, holding her stiffly and not knowing how to move away.
Isn’t it just a corpse after you log off?
I heard that some tourists are reluctant to pay the rent of 5 coppers per day. Every time they log off in one place and go online in another place, if they are lucky, their bodies will be picked up by the NPC guards in the national server, and they will be thrown into the warehouse like goods, and they will live in a free house.
.Those who are unlucky are treated in various ways. There are so many tricks. They can encounter any embarrassing or miserable situation.
Zhu Yuting did not have the "open-mindedness" of these people, so she did not dare to torment her body in such a way, so she could only pay the rent of 5 coppers per day honestly.
Struggling to break free from her good friend's 'iron clamp', she first checked that her clothes had not been tampered with. She breathed a sigh of relief, then picked up the pillow in her backpack and took out her shoes.
Put it on.
This backpack cost her 25 coppers, and it has system properties. No one can open it except her, unless of course someone explodes her body.
All her belongings were stored inside. If there wasn't a man living in the house, she would have taken off her clothes and put them in when she was offline.
Jumping out of bed lightly, he saw that many of the men 'sleeping' below had also left online. He found Fang Qinghong in the crowd. He didn't know who this guy had offended. Several butts and legs were pressing on him, barely.
Show your face and come out.
This person...
I was going to help him move away, but when I thought he was about to come online, I didn't move.
Pushing the door out, there is a courtyard similar to a courtyard. They live in the north wing. The main house is larger and there are more people living there. Some online tourists have already set up a stove next to the broken well to cook.
Zhu Yuting touched her shriveled belly. Although she couldn't see the hunger value that only players have, it was estimated that her ability to move would be affected if she continued to be hungry.
Yesterday, tourists starved to death in the town. Resurrection costs 20 coppers. The gain outweighs the cost of dieting, so it is better to fill your stomach as soon as possible.
"Girl, do you want 1 copper and 1 bowl?"
The person who posted the picture is obviously an aunt, which of course refers to her real age. Whether it is scanned or randomly, everyone looks similar online, they are all young people.
This kind of rejuvenation makes most of the older tourists grateful to Canaan. Even if they are discriminated against or treated harshly, they have no complaints. They cherish it more than the young people, can endure hardships more, and are more relaxed about their figures. On the contrary, they behave better than the younger ones.
Be nice.
This aunt can learn to cook for herself. Even though the food she makes is questionable, she is still starting a business, right?
Starting a business?
Thinking of her heroic ambition on the day of landing, Zhu Yuting sighed in her heart.
It’s difficult, it’s really difficult, even harder than starting a business in reality.
She smiled and declined the aunt's invitation. After the others had finished fetching water, she stepped forward and fetched a bucket of water with great effort.
The strength of tourists can also be exercised. The first time Zhu Yuting fetched water, it was much harder than now. Without the attributes and role templates of players, the differences between men and women among tourists are reflected. This first difference
Just in terms of physical strength.
If you could decide your own gender...
When she thought that Hu Yang or Jiang He might be a man, Zhu Yuting shuddered and decided not to give up, otherwise everything would be in chaos.
After washing up, Jiang He and Populus euphratica also came online.
"Haha, that guy Fang Qinghong is so miserable, he was buried."
Populus euphratica gloated and laughed.
Zhu Yuting called the tattered but clean towel to her, "Would you like to move it? Nothing will happen?"
"No," Jiang He said with a smile, "Have you not noticed that this body is 'restored' every time we go online?"
"That's right!" Zhu Yuting also laughed. The day before yesterday, she was injured as a cook, and this time the wounds were healed online. It seems that the system still cares about them, and it is not like what the national server said.
The three of them finished the online cleaning with laughter. Fang Qinghong hadn't come online yet. Hu Yang was impatient to wait for him, so he took the two of them out and bought a piece of black bread for a copper. When they came back, they drank the clear and sweet well water to solve the problem.
Had dinner.
With well water, the cheapest and most unpalatable food is no longer as hard to swallow as it used to be.
At this time, tourists in the courtyard came online one after another. There were about a hundred people, noisily coming in and out, all with young faces, as if they were back on campus.
Fang Qinghong was also online. He clutched his painful chest and swore that he must make someone look good.
It seems he knows who is targeting him.
Some people have rivers and lakes, have grievances, and have struggles.
"What are you doing today?" Hu Yang asked.
"I'm going to tighten the screws," Jiang He said. "It's a pottery workshop that pays pretty well. Every shift is five hours. There are a lot of people signing up."
Fang Qinghong: "How much is one hour?"
"5 Bronze"
"Not bad." Fang Qinghong pursed his lips, obviously disdainful, and said what he said insincerely, "I'm going to help, you don't need to worry about me." As he said that, he picked up the leftover bread that Zhu Yuting ate and hurriedly ate it.
Went out and left.
"Bangli, Bangli, aren't you here just to compliment someone else's stinky feet?" Hu Yang said to his back, "I'm not even willing to buy a piece of bread, just to take advantage of Xiaoting."
"I can't finish it. It's a waste. Don't be so mean," Zhu Yuting advised.
"I really envy you!" Hu Yang patted his belly dejectedly, "This guy will be hungry for a few hours and will rebel if he doesn't eat even one meal. You are lucky, you can't even finish a piece of black bread and one meal can last you a whole day."
"Haha..." Jiang He was amused by her appearance.
Everyone's body is different online. Some people are particularly good at eating, while others are particularly good at saving. Jiang He and Zhu Yuting happen to be in these two situations.
Zhu Yuting also smiled, picked up her backpack and prepared to go out.
"Are you going there today?"
Jiang He chased him to the door and asked.
"Leave me alone and come back tonight."
"Mysterious."
After leaving the courtyard, I joined many newly arrived tourists. I walked along the winding alleys, passing through houses of similar sizes and regulations, and ended up on the nearest main road.
Each town-level security zone has a cross-shaped main street. The center is naturally the city lord's palace and the square surrounded by major temples. Because there is no role system, tourists have not been very enthusiastic about the temples. This
Nothing changed until yesterday.
Major temples suddenly offered various jobs with good conditions and remuneration to attract tourists. As long as you listened to their preaching and participated in religious activities, you could get a free lunch. A large number of Nanguo Masters were born in a short time, and their faith seemed to be among the tourists.
There is a huge expansion in this group, but the quality is worrying.
Among this group of people, many people wore symbols representing pan-believers. Listening to them talk about the various benefits of "worshiping gods", Zhu Yuting was very moved. She thought that there was nothing to lose anyway, so she went to join one that day, at least she could get something.
Save money on a meal.
The main street was still lively. Along the way, Zhu Yuting dealt with several players chatting up her. When she arrived at the central square of the town, someone was already waiting impatiently.
"Why did you come?"
"I'm not late..."
"Forget it, come in quickly and take over."
"oh!"
It was the same jewelry shop that had asked her for 5 gold to be transferred to her. It was the busiest time of the day. Players who had been busy all day were all in pairs, and they especially liked to visit stalls selling DIY small decorations and pendants.
, as soon as Zhu Yuting sat in and accepted the permission of the store, a pair of elf rangers asked on the store's dialog box if a certain small goldfish pendant was available in pairs.
The busy work began, and the player stall owner stared at her uneasily for a while. When he saw that she was handling the situation skillfully and all the useful information was recorded in the shop log according to his instructions, he left with peace of mind and satisfaction.
——Players are so rich!
After receiving the fourth couple, Zhu Yuting felt emotional.
A useless trinket, converted into real currency, can rival the top luxury trinkets in reality. Some players may seem "poor", but in order to please their sweetheart, they often buy them without paying back the price.
.
Comparing the situation of my family, who has to save even a copper coin of black bread, it is really a world of difference. It is no wonder that many people are psychologically unbalanced and have all kinds of troubles.
The system and national server are too harsh on tourists.
Occasionally, when she was free, Zhu Yuting would take things off the shelves and look at them. When the player shop owner had time, she would also teach her how to make this kind of gadget. She thought it was a very simple thing, but when she really knew how to make it,
Only then did I realize that what I thought before was too simple.
The reason is very simple. If you throw a person into a primitive environment, he will have nothing. Even making a comb is very difficult. Moreover, the original vision of Canaan is so unfamiliar, and the properties of many materials are completely different from those in reality.
Just like the bone comb she is holding now.
According to common sense, wooden combs should be the easiest to process, and the materials can be found everywhere, but this is not the case at all.
The plants in Canaan, without exception, are very easy to spoil. As long as there is no magic involved, some of them will spoil in a shorter time than meat, and they are not suitable for any delicate processing at all.
The shelf life of bones is just the opposite. They can be preserved in harsh environments for a long time, and some of them can be made into various tools, accessories, and even equipment with attributes.
However, the process of processing the bone comb is completely different from that in reality. It needs to be soaked in a special potion. This potion is not available in reality and is not provided in the game. It is all figured out by players over and over again.
After soaking, the bones will become like jade, and a very comfortable enamel will appear on the surface. The quality, color and purity of the enamel determine the value of the finished product.
They are all DIY, the same thing, but the craftsmanship is different. Some people can only make the most primitive things at extremely low prices, while others can make handicrafts that everyone is competing for. The prices are naturally very different.
From this incident, it can be seen that DIY is not that easy. Although reality is used as a reference to achieve it, it cannot follow realistic methods.
Zhu Yuting has an agreement with this player shop owner to help him take care of his business when he is busy and unable to get away. He will pass on this knowledge and skills in his free time.
In his words, the sunset industry will be eliminated by tourists sooner or later, so it is better to cash in now.
This person is very smart, and Zhu Yuting also has her own plans. In the words of the national server staff, it is a career plan.
At this time, she was no longer confused, had the goal she wanted to pursue, and began to take the first brave step.
Players come and go, and sometimes intelligent NPCs will also visit the store. Their appearance often means large orders, which requires someone to be present to receive and negotiate.
Two hours passed in a hurry, and the market became more lively. An NPC merchant from the neutral camp visited Zhu Yuting's shop. He was very interested in one of the convenient fire-making gadgets and intended to place a large order.
In this situation, Zhu Yuting was entitled to a commission, so she immediately used all her energy and caution to deal with it.
In fact, this gadget is a fire sickle. It is a gadget made from the residue of an ore called obsidian, which undergoes several special processes and is combined with highly flammable wood chips and other debris.
But it does not require the participation of magic power, can be used by everyone, and can be applied in various environments, giving it broad application prospects.
Many shops are doing similar things. Zhu Yuting was afraid that this business would be lost, so she took care of everything to make this NPC businessman very satisfied.
I got this order as I wished, and received a deposit for the first batch of goods, which amounted to 1 gold and 20 silver.
Calculating the commission she could get from this order, Zhu Yuting couldn't believe that happiness came so suddenly. She was not mentally prepared to save enough funds to start a business.
