#332 - Sales soared! Wang Hanzhe and Xin Shenghe's extreme tug-of-war, the show was explosive!
Game Tip:
[Please note that the field of vision of the "New Shenghe" members is fan-shaped. Each member has an alert bar above their head. When the alert bar changes from yellow to red, the pursuit mode will be activated]
Wang Hanzhe went around from the back door of the residential area and found that there were also a few scattered groups of beggars rummaging through the trash cans, but the guards were much more lax.
Hiding in the shadows, he waited for the best opportunity.
When all the fan-shaped fields of vision turned away, Wang Hanzhe rushed to the nearest trash can without hesitation and began to rummage quickly.
[Obtained discarded express box (worth 1.2 yuan)]
[Obtained a bundle of discarded workbooks (worth 1.8 yuan)]
[Obtained Nongfu Spring empty bottle (worth 0.2 yuan)]
[Obtained Coca-Cola can (worth 0.3 yuan)]
[Obtained discarded copper door handle (worth 2.9 yuan)]
……
"As expected of a high-end residential area, there are so many goods!"
Wang Hanzhe quickly filtered the valuable items into the sack, and he wielded a wooden stick with great skill.
The audience was amused:
"I always feel that the host's movements of rummaging through treasure chests are getting more and more skilled, hhhhhh."
While he was enjoying the rummaging, a question came from a distance:
"Who's there?"
Several New Shenghe members had noticed Wang Hanzhe, and the alert bars on their heads changed from green to yellow.
But Wang Hanzhe's movements didn't stop. It wasn't until someone's alert bar was about to turn red that he decisively ran out of the residential area, hid behind a big tree to observe,
and waited for the beggars' alert levels to drop again.
He bypassed their field of vision and went to pick up new trash cans.
Wang Hanzhe said: "Brothers, this gameplay has skills. You can't be too greedy, otherwise you'll be beaten to a pulp if you get caught. You can't be too cowardly, otherwise you won't be able to pick up a few cents a day, which is not enough to consume energy, and you'll starve to death sooner or later."
The audience was amused:
"The host is so good at kiting."
"Damn, it reminds me of playing an MMO when I was a kid, playing a mage, specializing in kiting enemies."
After kiting back and forth a few times,
suddenly!
An angry shout came from a distance: "Brothers, grab your weapons, someone is stealing our treasure chests!"
The surrounding New Shenghe members, carrying iron rods, cursed and surrounded him.
"Damn, I accidentally triggered the red alert."
Wang Hanzhe quickly carried the sack on his back and disappeared into the night like a gust of wind.
But the beggars chased after him, chasing him down the street for three blocks before they gave up the pursuit.
[The Beggar Gang "New Shenghe"'s attention and hostility towards you have increased]
Wang Hanzhe breathed a sigh of relief: "Brothers, fortunately, it was a close call. We finally collected 50 yuan. Let's go buy a good axe."
……
After buying the axe, Wang Hanzhe found a forest farm near the suburbs.
"There are many scraps of wood left on the ground after logging here. We have a source of wood!
I checked the guide today. Wood has many uses. In addition to being used as fuel, it can also be used to make some furniture."
Wang Hanzhe chopped with the axe, then stacked them into a pile, and slowly transported them to the shelter.
This place is about one kilometer away from the shelter. He walked back and forth, carrying two sacks at a time, and finally saved enough wood.
[Your stamina has increased]
Wang Hanzhe wiped his sweat: "When I was moving wood just now, I found that there is a new unfinished building complex nearby that has not been explored. Let's go take a look later."
Audience:
"Hurry up, hurry up! I like to watch the host explore!"
"Damn, this game is getting more and more interesting. I couldn't help but place an order. I'm going to be a homeless person today!"
……
As the sun set and the night deepened, Wang Tomato came to an abandoned unfinished building.
The dilapidated exterior walls were covered with cracks and faded paint. The surrounding vegetation grew disorderly and cluttered, blocking the sunlight and shrouding the entire residential area in a dim atmosphere.
The barking of dogs came from a distance, and occasionally one or two crows flew over the roof, making a shrill cry, adding a touch of eerie atmosphere to this unfinished residential area.
A gust of breeze brought a musty and damp smell, as if this place was a corner forgotten by the world.
At the entrance of the residential area, there was a faded banner: "Unscrupulous developers, return our hard-earned money!"
In front of the entrance of the unfinished building, there was a patch of grass.
Wang Hanzhe:
"Brothers, be careful when passing through the grass,
We have to find a small stick or take a trekking pole or something, and probe while walking.
As for the reason, you'll know later."
He waved the VR glove and kept tapping the grass in front of him with a wooden stick,
Suddenly!
A piece of the ground in front of him collapsed, revealing a dark ditch.
Wang Hanzhe stopped in time and breathed a sigh of relief:
"See, there are dark ditches everywhere in this kind of grass, especially when walking at night, you have to use a stick to probe."
So, he carefully bypassed the dark ditch and continued forward.
However, before he took two steps, a poisonous snake sprang out of the grass!
[SAN value decreased by 8 points]
The poisonous snake spat its tongue and hissed at him. Wang Hanzhe was startled, but he didn't hesitate at all. He lunged to the left and successfully dodged the snake's attack.
Then, he seized the opportunity and slammed the wooden stick towards the snake's head, repelling it.
"That was close, I almost died here and had to restart."
He breathed a sigh of relief and subconsciously took two steps back, then fell into another dark ditch.
[Health decreased by 8 points]
"Hahahaha, I still fell into the ditch."
"《Hitting the grass to scare the snake》"
"The host knows the program effect."
Wang Hanzhe climbed out of the ditch: "It's just a small ditch, not a big problem. Since there are such difficulties at the entrance, there must be good things in the building!"
Continuing forward for a while, Wang Hanzhe kept identifying the garbage on the ground and explained:
"There is a Red Bull can here. Pay attention when picking up waste products in the future. Don't pick up this kind of can. It's a waste of physical strength, because it's an iron can and can't be sold for much money.
Generally speaking, aluminum cans are the most valuable, and no one wants to collect iron cans, but if you need a bowl, you can take this thing away and use it as a small bowl to boil water or something."
The audience was amused:
"Daily lesson."
"《When everyone picks up waste products in the future》"
On the first floor of the unfinished building, Wang Hanzhe found a simple shack.
At the entrance of the shack, there was a stove built by a homeless man, but it had been extinguished with an unknown liquid.
It can be seen that the owner of the stove was broken because of this, and left a line of words on the wall with charcoal:
"Whoever urinates or defecates here is a b*stard..."
Wang Hanzhe: "A b*stard what? I can't see clearly."
Below this line of words, there was a fresh line of small words:
"I don't change my name, I don't change my surname, I did it. Who told you to build a home in New Shenghe's territory? I dare to do it next time!"
The stove owner replied:
"Okay, New Shenghe, I remember you!"
The other party continued to provoke:
"What's the use of just talking? If you have the guts, come to the New Shenghe's headquarters to find me!"
Wang Hanzhe:
"It seems that this New Shenghe is causing outrage among the local homeless people.
But we are not used to them, they are all homeless people, who is more noble than whom?
The treasures in this unfinished building are for everyone!"
Wang Hanzhe climbed to the second floor and soon had a new harvest!
He found a piece of iron plate, and the outline looked like a car door.
[Obtained discarded car door, worth 55 yuan]
Wang Hanzhe was overjoyed: "Damn, this fall was not in vain!"
The audience instantly envied: "Good guy, I've been homeless for two days and haven't picked up a treasure worth more than 10 yuan. What kind of luck does the host have?!"
Continuing to explore upstairs, he kept hearing various cries.
The VR environment simulation brought by Peach Garden Shenyou was too realistic, and Wang Hanzhe couldn't help but get goosebumps and kept cheering himself up:
"Don't be afraid when you hear strange sounds in the wild, it's just the wind.
The unknown is the most terrifying thing, you just don't let yourself feel the unknown."
Then, in the next second, he was startled by the human-shaped plastic sheet at the corner.
"Oh my god!"
[SAN value decreased by 5 points]
The audience went crazy with laughter: "Hahaha, what about not feeling the unknown?"
Wang Hanzhe climbed all the way to the top floor and found a beautifully bound booklet on the ground on the top floor.
[Congratulations! You have obtained the rare item "Woodworking Manual". You have unlocked the woodworking skill and can manufacture wooden tableware, furniture, weapons and equipment, and shelter defense facilities]
The audience was shocked: "I'm going! This trip is really worth it!"
……
After returning home from the unfinished building, Wang Hanzhe went to the waste recycling station to sell the car door and some other waste products,
and went to the supermarket to buy two pounds of noodles, a bag of Fuling pickles, and two beef-flavored starch sausages.
He used the stove to cook and boiled a full pot of starch sausage noodles.
"Today I can finally have a good meal."
Wang Hanzhe began to eat heartily, while commenting to himself based on the VR's smell feedback:
"This starch sausage is purely a big dough.
But today's noodles are cooked more chewy and look more springy.
Adding sausage and pickles, the satiety is estimated to increase greatly.
If these noodles can be added with some oil, some pork, and some scallions, it would be even more delicious."
Audience:
"Homeless person's fantasy moment."
"Wild gourmet."
"Good guy, I'm hungry at 2:30 in the morning."
Before going to bed, Wang Hanzhe opened the "Woodworking Manual" and began to make his first piece of furniture: a wooden pillow.
The so-called wooden pillow is just a piece of round wood flattened and wrapped with cotton cloth and plastic.
[Woodworking skill proficiency has increased]
When sleeping, the game popped up the settlement results:
[Congratulations, you have successfully spent the second day of homelessness]
The latest novel is first published on Liǔ.9.Shū.Bā!
[Evaluating your satiety, health value, and SAN value remaining]
[Evaluating your harvest today]
[Evaluating your shelter]
[Evaluation completed, your survival score for today is 78 points, and the comprehensive rating is B-]
[Your global ranking for this season is 2872]
Wang Hanzhe was shocked:
"What the heck, I thought my ranking would improve a lot with so many gains today, how come it has regressed by more than a thousand places!"
Audience: "I heard that the sales of this game have started to explode. It only sold tens of thousands of copies yesterday, and it is estimated that it will sell hundreds of thousands of copies today. Many new players have poured in."
Wang Hanzhe immediately rolled up his sleeves: "No, I'm not convinced. It's still early to end the broadcast today. Let's continue to work hard! Look for new ways to make money!"
After the third day started, Wang Hanzhe encountered a wedding motorcade while going out to be homeless.
Although he couldn't ask the motorcade for red envelopes because his image score was too low, he still had unexpected discoveries.
"I'm very lucky today. I found firework tubes used for weddings on the street. These tubes are all rolled with cardboard and the quality is good. They can be sold for money.
So during the New Year or when you encounter auspicious days for weddings, everyone should go out and stroll around more and pick up some cardboard.
The gunpowder that hasn't been used up inside can also be mashed out, which is very useful."
Audience:
"He really wants to teach us, I'm crying!"
"Good guy, with tubes and gunpowder, does the host want to make his own homemade cannon?"
Wang Hanzhe:
"Cardboard is also divided into two types. Gray-brown solid-color cardboard sells for more money. Many cardboards printed with colored patterns sell for less money. Why? Because cardboard with colored patterns is not easy to pulp.
These cardboards are recycled and re-pulped and then reused."
The audience continued to laugh: "Useless knowledge has increased again."
After recycling the firework tubes, Wang Hanzhe passed by the previous high-end residential area again.
With the previous experience of kiting New Shenghe, this time he successfully picked up a pile of cardboard, about forty or fifty pounds.
The game's purchase price is 8 cents a pound, which can sell for more than 30 yuan.
Moreover, he also picked up a complete sack in the treasure chest. When he opened it, there were beans and persimmons, which were estimated to be the remaining near-expiry vegetables from the vegetable vendors, and the quality was very good.
The audience was shocked:
"What the heck?"
"Golden legend?!"
When Wang Hanzhe took this bag of vegetables out, he was still spotted by the New Shenghe beggars.
He didn't hesitate and ran away. The other party chased after him while shouting:
"Boy, this is the second time I've seen you today. Don't let us catch you again, or you'll have a good time!"
[The Beggar Gang "New Shenghe"'s attention and hostility towards you have increased]
After escaping the siege, Wang Hanzhe felt that the character's actions were difficult and he felt weak all over. He glanced at his health value and frowned:
"I've been drinking tap water from the city's restrooms these days. It is said that that stuff is not the standard for domestic water, so my stomach can't stand it after drinking it for a few days, and my health has been deducted a lot.
We have to find a way to drink some healthier river water.
Although this river water looks very dirty, it's okay. Let's fill a little and filter it when we go back, and we can also supplement minerals."
After saying that, he started to fill water with a mineral water bottle.
"Oh, when I stir this river water, this little smell comes up."
Audience ridicule:
"Healthier"
"It's okay"
"Clean and hygienic"
Back at the shelter, he opened the workbench interface and began to make a water purifier:
He took out an empty mineral water bottle, cut off the bottom, and poked a small hole in the cap.
Then, he took a second empty mineral water bottle, cut off the top, and inverted the first bottle, placing it upside down on top of the second.
He dug up some clean, fine sand from the riverbank, burned some charcoal, and pulled some clean grass from the river's edge.
He added things to the inverted mineral water bottle, placing a layer of grass at the bottom, a layer of charcoal on top of that, and a layer of fine sand on top of everything. With that, it was complete.
[Congratulations on completing a basic water filter. You have received an extra +10 survival points for today.]
Then, Wang Hanzhe poured the murky river water into it and began testing the filtering effect.
Water dripped continuously from the bottom, quickly filling a bottle.
"The water has been filtered. Everyone, take a look at the effect after filtering. The originally murky river water has become very clear."
The comments section was filled with amazement:
"I'm shocked. I didn't believe it when they talked about simple water filters in textbooks. Can it really purify to this extent?!"
"This effect is amazing!"
"This game has such a high degree of freedom. I wonder how many brain cells the programmers burned to create this underlying logic."
"The Taoyuan Kaiwu Engine is truly powerful!"
Wang Hanzhe filtered five more bottles of water and poured them into a large bucket to use for cooking.
"This water needs to be boiled after filtering before drinking."
Wang Hanzhe picked up more than half a bag of vegetables and had previously used the 80 yuan he had to buy a lot of ingredients: a whole bag of rice, spicy sticks, salt, pickled mustard tubers, and sausage.
So today, he made a tomato and egg soup with salted sausage.
After making it, Wang Hanzhe smelled the aroma and smacked his lips: "I never thought rice with pickled mustard tubers could be so delicious!"
He ate while sighing:
"When a person is hungry, even the cheapest food is as noble as a goddess to them."
The comments section was amused:
"Daily golden sentence (1/1)"
"Strange analogy"
"Hahaha, this game is so realistic in showing the ups and downs of life."
Wang Hanzhe pulled out a small, relatively intact orange from the sack.
"Let's have some dessert after the meal. I just picked it out of the treasure chest."
Comments:
"《Treasure Chest's Gift》"
"《Dessert After the Meal》"
Wang Hanzhe smacked his lips as he ate:
"Oranges can replenish vitamins, so today's survival score definitely won't be low.
Everyone, it's no exaggeration to say that eating oranges is a luxury in our current situation.
Anyway, after eating and drinking, I'll take a stroll later to see if I can earn some money to add something new to our shelter."
……
After the meal, he wandered into a long-abandoned factory area.
Moss spread across the tall factory walls, and the warehouse doors were covered in rust.
The walls were plastered with old posters and propaganda paintings, blurred by the ravages of time.
A faint echo came from the corridor, as if it were the clamor of the former workers.
Wang Hanzhe:
"Everyone, this place seems to have a lot of supplies, but it looks really sinister, like the lair of a villainous BOSS.
The factory has been abandoned for many years. Let's see if we can find anything we need."
After entering the factory area, Wang Hanzhe found a row of what looked like shacks built by vagrants.
The entrances to the shacks were covered with large iron sheets, and inside were many small benches and daily necessities.
The comments section was curious: "Are people meeting here often?"
Wang Hanzhe: "Impossible. We can move these benches away later."
Afterward, Wang Hanzhe found a room in the innermost part of the factory area.
This seemed to be someone's bedroom. The items in the room were clearly of a higher standard than those in the iron shacks outside.
He picked up a faded swimsuit booklet. On the cover, a bikini-clad beauty smiled charmingly.
[Acquired an expired swimsuit beauty magazine. Reading it can restore SAN value.]
Then, Wang Hanzhe discovered that the blanket on the bed was bulging. He lifted it up and saw a dirty, life-size body pillow underneath.
The pillow's design was of the popular character Kasumigaoka Utaha from 《Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend》, but it was an R18 version with a climax face.
"Wow, this old guy is quite the anime fan?!"
Just then, noisy sounds came from outside. Wang Hanzhe poked his head out and saw dozens of vagrants coming in mightily from outside.
When Wang Hanzhe saw these vagrants, he thought some of the faces looked familiar—
Weren't they members of the Xin Sheng He he had met before?!
Then, he glanced at the wall at the factory entrance and noticed the graffiti he hadn't seen before. His blood ran cold:
"Xin Sheng He Headquarters"
Just then, the vagrants also discovered Wang Hanzhe.
The two sides stared at each other, stunned for a moment. Then, a tall man at the front of the vagrants instantly noticed the swimsuit beauty magazine and body pillow in Wang Hanzhe's hands.
He exclaimed in shock: "Wife!!!!!!!"
Wang Hanzhe was dumbfounded.
The leader-like man's eyes were bloodshot as he roared, "The hatred of stealing my wife is irreconcilable!"
A group of vagrants rushed over.
The comments section was shocked: "It's over, he's done for. He really entered the BOSS's lair!"
