Private messages continued to flood in Liao Fan’s inbox.

He checked them one by one.

Liao Fan could go out and scavenge for these materials himself, but the required amount was too big.

It would take too much time.

Besides, he was unsure if there were enough resources around his place.

Moreover, Liao Fan had better things to do.

There was no need to waste his time on such a mere matter.

He could use his time to fish or collect water.

Perhaps he could even start looking for the Ruins.

‘I can recruit talents once I get the required item.

Then, I will become an actual Lord!

‘What kind of Lord only has two subordinates?

‘I need at least three.’

There was no need to talk too much.

After reading an abundance of messages, Liao Fan finally found a person who had a large number of stones.

Liao Fan (Male): So, you want to trade *300 stones for ten liters of water and a piece of meat?

The other party promptly replied

Wu An (Male): Yup! Brother Liao Fan, if it’s alright, let’s trade right now.

Liao Fan (Male): No way!

Liao Fan immediately rejected the offer.

The other part was simply too greedy. He was asking for too much.

If he were to accept trades like that, his resources would be gone in a blink of an eye!

It was not hard to obtain water, but there was no guarantee he would return with meat every time. 

Wu An (Male): What’s your proposal?

Wu An did not expect Liao Fan to refuse.

He had been thirsty for the entire day. His villagers had not drunk a drop of water either.

Trading the stones was his only way out.

Liao Fan (Male): I’ll trade ten liters of water but no meat. Take it or leave it!

Ten liters of water!

Not many people could afford to trade ten liters of water in one shot.

In such an environment, even if one found a water source, they would have trouble storing such a large amount.

Wu An was tempted but at the same time, he felt like it was his loss.

On the first day, the price of Liao Fan’s water was much lower.

Wu An (Male): Brother, how could you bully others like this? Please show some kindness. I’m really hungry.

Liao Fan (Male): I’m sorry, but that’s my final offer. Stones are not that valuable. In fact, their value will keep dropping. Almost everyone could easily get them. *300 units is a lot, but they’re still just stones!

Wu An (Male): Brother, why do you need so many stones?

Liao Fan (Male): That’s none of your business!

Wu An fell silent after reading Liao Fan’s reply.

If it were him, he would have answered the same way. 

This was just human nature.

Throughout the day, he had tried countless times to trade his stones for drinking water.

However, all of his attempts were unsuccessful. 

To others, stones were one of the most useless resources. 

It could only be synthesized into stone axes.

Barely anyone lacked stone.

Even if they did, no one would use drinking water to trade for them.

Under such circumstances, trading three hundred units of stones for ten liters of water was worth it.

Wu An had to forego the meat.

He regretted that he used all of his time to mine for stones. 

It had also caused a shortage of other basic resources.

This was because he did not plan in advance!

If he did, he would not be in such a predicament.

In the end, he was not even able to trade the stones for anything else.

Wu An agreed to trade with Liao Fan, albeit begrudgingly.

…

The transaction was completed almost instantly.

Ten liters of water for three hundred stones.

Liao Fan had made a huge profit!

He basically swindled Wu An.

After that, Liao Fan continued to read his messages.

…

Trades took place one after the other.

Liao Fan’s stock of water, fish, and berries was decreasing rapidly.

He stopped using his water for trades because there were only five liters left.

The same goes for his fish.

There were only three left!

As for the berries, Liao Fan did not hesitate to trade all of them.

Time flew by.

It was already late at night.

Liao Fan was ecstatic.

He finally had all the materials needed to upgrade his cottage to level two!

[ Level 2 Territory: Stone 1000/1000, clay 500/1100, fence 200/0, wood 500/700. ]

‘Alright, I just need to do one more thing!

‘Combine the wood and clays into fences!

‘How exciting!’
