Chapter 446: Chapter 446
After all, this hadn’t appeared before.
After sending Xiao Meng and the others back, Lin Yue built a small shelter inside the nitrate ore mine, installed a solar power set, and also put up an air conditioner.
Sitting at the very center of the room in this underground shelter, Lin Yue lay on the sofa, bit by bit exchanging nitrate for more diverse resources.
His trading rules were quite simple.
He only exchanged directly with the leaders of shelters, ignoring offers from regular people.
The world trading channel is constantly improving its features, and Lin Yue quickly discovered that he could post specialized trades now.
For example, the function of exclusive trades with refugee village leaders, which he had previously overlooked.
He immediately took advantage of this by posting an exclusive trade with village leaders, using ten units of nitrate to exchange for alloy, various old electronics, or parts held by these refugee villages.
The reason he didn’t trade with everyone individually was first to prevent resales, and second, he indeed didn’t have that much nitrate ore.
The machine dogs, working non-stop day and night, produced nitrate ore these past two days, but it was impossible to supply all the survivors.
After system identification, he found that the ten units of nitrate could create ice that lasts for only around thirty hours. Lin Yue felt he had done his best and couldn’t cater to too many people.
Five units were too few; ten units were just right.
With a global population of over two billion, the leaderboard previously showed a high of three to four hundred people and a low of fewer than a hundred. Taking an average of 200 people, excluding individual beggars, the number of refugee villages far exceeds one million in this world! The source of this content ɪs 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩
One million villages, with ten units for each, amount to ten million units of nitrate.
This astronomical number, even with a thousand machine dogs, could not be achieved quickly.
Thus, he specified in the trade that "quantity is limited, unable to guarantee future availability, first-come, first-served."
Currently possessing fewer than forty thousand units, if given a whole day, the machine dogs could barely produce twenty thousand units, no more.
As for the exchanged items, Lin Yue wasn’t overly demanding.
He had plenty of alloy and some parts; he could gather quite a few components from old appliances. Still, Lin Yue wasn’t too insistent; having them was good enough.
A refugee village should be able to produce these things, right?
Besides nitrate, Lin Yue also commissioned Xing Lingfeng to publish his thoughts on how to survive this disaster. Once the extreme heat problem is solved, giant hail and fire tornadoes would become much simpler to deal with.
Of course, even if the nitrate issue cannot be resolved, there is still a way.
In the Otherworld, aside from desert and other rare terrains, the map indicates that other places don’t seem to suffer from water shortages.
Instead of making ice, in regions with abundant water resources, soaking in water all day, making a pool, should be quite easy, right?
"This is all I can do. The rest depends on the resilient will of these people who have endured multiple disasters," Lin Yue said as he looked at the pile of alloys, various old electronics, and parts he had just taken out from the storage space, and exhaled softly.
