"Haha, we have it all."
"Hmm, alright, I’m heading back now. You guys, don’t bother digging anymore. We can’t take it all back in one go anyway."
"Okay."
"Got it, Wenxi!"
"Yes, Mistress!"
"Ah, don’t call Mistress!" Li Wenxi’s voice carried a hint of shyness.
Looks like the three over there are fairly obedient.
"Totally like a head miner now," Xu Xin teased.
"Prospector! I’m a prospector!" Li Wenxi corrected him again, "Alright, we should be back in about fifteen minutes. Then I’ll send over the copper ore."
Ending the call, Xu Xin swung down from the tree house and headed to the coal mine pit.
Earlier, he’d asked his beloved to dig for an extra hour, and sure enough, the pit was now filled with coal. His beloved had already gone back.
The pit had expanded once again. His beloved was quite clever, even though Xu Xin hadn’t ntioned it; it had extended the pit horizontally rather than digging deeper vertically.
The pit was now tens of square ters in size, taking shape as a proper mine pit.
Packing all the coal from the ground into his backpack, Xu Xin went to the lakeside to wash off the coal dust, then arrived at Ma Hongwei’s tree house.
Ma Hongwei’s tree house was once again covered with crossbow turrets. He had ard his tree house like a hedgehog.
Xu Xin directly controlled the tendrils to enter inside.
Ma Hongwei was sitting by, eating lunch and browsing his watch. Xu Xin’s entrance startled him.
"Whoa, Brother Xu, you scared to death!" Ma Hongwei patted his chest to calm down, still not used to people suddenly entering his tree house.
He was gradually returning to his original personality, becoming less restrained.
... Perhaps from now on, he should shout before entering. This was Ma Hongwei’s tree house, after all, and entering like this was quite impolite.
A bit like parents entering a child’s room without knocking.
"Hey, just wanted to ask how the crossbows are selling?"
"I don’t know how many have sold, but didn’t you tell to limit sales to two for each person?" Ma Hongwei said, chewing on fruit, "They likely have two each by now, since there are still ten or so listed on the trading platform, and they aren’t selling anymore."
So everyone has two?
"You’ve made over 6,000 of them?" Xu Xin was a bit surprised.
"Probably. So people provided with lots of raw materials, while others traded directly with them. I have ample materials, and making these things doesn’t take much ti."
Indeed, although slting tal chunks requires ti, crafting doesn’t. You simply click, and it appears out of thin air, which is convenient. Although crafting doesn’t require ti, higher-tier crafting has success rate restrictions, thus requiring crafting room bonuses.
However, Ma Hongwei wasn’t making anything of the higher tiers now, so the crafting room wasn’t particularly useful.
"Got more materials, right? Increase the purchase limit to four per person and keep selling."
"Alright. By the way," Ma Hongwei stood up, stretching a bit, "I can move now, I can start researching."
Xu Xin’s eyes lit up, and he stood: "Hold on a bit."
He ran back to his tree house, grabbed a large amount of green-grade iron ore, traded it to Ma Hongwei, and sent him a private ssage: "These iron blocks are for researching your iron crossbows. Let know if you need more, I’ll provide as much as needed."
A long ti later, a ssage ca back: "Aweso! This is so powerful! I’m starting the research now!"
Just then, Li Wenxi sent a video call.
Answering, Xu Xin saw the three won over there, all inside Li Wenxi’s tree house.
"Xu Xin, we’re back! We’re thinking of cooking a big al, would you like to join us?" Li Wenxi smiled at the cara, holding a cooking spatula.
"What about Le Youfang?" Xu Xin noticed Le Youfang was not present.
"He’s all dirty from mining and went to bathe in the river. He’ll co over later."
Xu Xin noticed their hair looked a bit damp. Without a hairdryer, they could only wipe them dry naturally.
The three won were naturally beautiful types; Li Wenxi and Lou Fei’Er were college beauty level at least, and even Li Yajun looked fresh and appealing without makeup.
Li Wenxi and Li Yajun wore light rookie outfits, looking quite refreshing, while Lou Fei’Er’s rookie outfit beca shredded into strips during a raid. Now she wore leather armor, with a deeply plunging neckline and marked patterns.
Xu Xin instantly replied: "Alright, I’ll co over to eat."
If Le Youfang was going, how could he not?
"Great, co over quickly!"
"Hold on, send the copper chunks first. I want to see what I can make."
"Oh right! Appliances, was it? I’ll send them over now!"
Using the tree house screen video, Li Wenxi turned around and went downstairs.
"Haha, my master, three beauties serving you food, happy?" Lou Fei’Er seized the opportunity to smile at the screen.
"... How much nitrate ore did you dig today?" Xu Xin didn’t take the bait.
"Hmm, I don’t know; Wenxi collected it all, and Yajun rode the ox back and forth four tis, right Yajun?" Lou Fei’Er counted on her fingers and then turned to ask Li Yajun.
