Crossing the wilderness to survive, starting with a broken kitchen knife.

Zhang Shi looked at the newly acquired formula with satisfaction, thinking about his next plan in his mind.

He knew very well that the production of fertilizers was the key to increasing farmland yields.

He first went to the livestock area to check the health of the flock and keep an eye out for which ewes were about to produce milk.

At the same time, he also began to prepare to collect feces to make fertilizer. Although this work was a bit heavy, Zhang Shi felt that it was worth it when he thought about increasing the yield and growth rate of crops.

The collected feces are placed in wooden barrels and manufactured through the system panel.

After a while, bags of the best fertilizer were produced, and their appearance was exactly the same as Zhang Shi remembered.

In order to check the effect of the fertilizer, Zhang Shi went to the greenhouse to observe in person.

Through the territory control module, the manual fertilization step is eliminated, and everything is controlled by the system, which saves Zhang Shi a lot of trouble.

In the fertilized farmland, the seedlings grew visibly, and the vegetables in the high-quality farmland were once again approaching maturity.

Zhang Shi estimated that in two days, he would have a big harvest.

It was snowing heavily outside. Zhang Shi took out a shovel and worked hard to clear the snow. He piled it in the boiler room for easy access.

Unfortunately, the temperature outside was unbearable, so Zhang Shi had to work for a while and then rest for a while, which greatly affected his work efficiency. It took him a whole morning to clear the snow in the yard.

Whenever he has free time, Zhang Shi opens the system panel to check.

Sure enough, there was new information in the private chat interface.

Zhang Shi clicked on it and found that it was a transaction request sent by Ge Dalong, with an item link attached below.

[Farmland Improvement Card (Blue) x1]

Zhang Shi smiled and gladly accepted the deal.

When Ge Dalong saw Zhang Shi's reply, he asked about Zhang Shi's situation and talked to him about what happened last night. There was a strong sense of crisis between the lines.

"Last night, the temperature plummeted and a sudden snowstorm hit, overwhelming many survivors' shelters. To make matters worse, many people reported that groups of yetis were stalking their shelters. If this continues, I'm worried that the number of survivors will decrease further."

"No matter what world we live in, it's easier to survive together. I think if we have the energy to do so, we should help our compatriots as much as possible."

Zhang Shi glanced at the chat channel and saw quite a few survivors calling for help. Some even said there were snow monsters surrounding the shelter.

Cheng Xiaobai: Help! A group of snow monsters appeared at my doorstep out of nowhere and have now jumped over the fence to attack my shelter.

Wang Wu: I also found a group of white-haired monkeys. It was broad daylight. I was not afraid of them. I took out my weapon and chased them away.

Zhu Dachang: These snow monsters can climb walls. Once they climb over the fence, they start throwing snowballs at my house. It’s cold outside, so I don’t dare go out. I can only use materials to repair it.

……

After seeing everyone's reactions, Zhang Shi knew that everyone's situation was not good, so he thought about making some weapons to support everyone.

Since upgrading his shelter to level 4, he had unlocked a number of advanced weaponry crafting methods. He quickly crafted a large number of fine iron longbows and iron arrows on the construction interface and posted rental information on the trading channel.

Restore the masculinity of men: Ladies and gentlemen, I have a large number of bows and arrows for rent. The uniform price is 5 gold coins per day. If you need them, you can contact me to rent them.

In addition, if you have purchasing needs, you can also chat with me privately, and you can exchange props, gold coins, and supplies of the same grade.

Zhang Shi sighed. The fine iron bow and arrow was a high-end item, and renting it for 5 gold coins a day was already very cheap. Zhang Shi felt that he had done what he could, and the rest depended entirely on the survivors' luck.

After placing the farmland improvement card in the greenhouse, Zhang Shi found that his yard had become a little crowded after upgrading to a luxury villa. After expanding the courtyard wall again, Zhang Shi's idea of ​​moving became stronger and stronger.

The mine was rich in resources, but it was a long way from the shelter, and he hadn't found a large water source. Although the resource generation card in his hand could generate water, Zhang Shi still wanted to save it for another use.

"When the weather gets better, we should go out for a walk."

The buzzing system prompt interrupted Zhang Shi's thoughts.

The weapons previously placed on the trading market have been rented out one after another, and many survivors have brought various items to exchange.

Although high-quality bows and arrows are not uncommon, they are still very popular in the current market conditions.

Zhang Shi was busy for a while and collected a variety of supplies, then he closed the system panel and prepared lunch.

Zhang Shi obtained the ingredients for stewing meat from this transaction, and he planned to have a barbecue at noon.

Cut the fresh meat, mix it with seasoning and marinate it, wash the fresh vegetables and set them aside, apply a layer of wild boar oil on the electric baking tray, and the aroma of oil will waft through the kitchen.

The smell of oil attracted Pippi, who wagged his little tail and squatted obediently aside waiting to be fed.

Seeing that the oil temperature was right, Zhang Shi picked up the meat and put it into the baking tray. When the oil and meat came into contact, a crackling sound was heard.

After a while, the meat slices were slightly charred and a rich meaty aroma filled the air.

Zhang Shi wrapped a large piece of meat in lettuce leaves and sprinkled some dry ingredients on it to make a vegetable bun. The fragrance of the vegetables mixed with the aroma of the meat whetted Zhang Shi's appetite, even though he was a bit tired of meat.

Swallowing the vegetable bun in one bite brings a strong sense of satisfaction.

"Wang Wang!"

Seeing Zhang Shi’s exaggerated expression, Pippi also became greedy and shouted out to attract his attention.

Zhang Shi took Pippi's food bowl and put a large piece of barbecue into it.

Outside, the wind and snow howled. Inside, it was warm as spring, and a man and a dog ate heartily, sweating profusely.

"Great, this is life!"

Zhang Shi rubbed his bloated belly and lay down lazily on the bed.

Zhang Shi ate a little too much and felt sleepy. Just as he was about to close his eyes, he heard Pippi's voice calling.

"Wang Wang!"

Zhang Shi turned to look at Pippi and said with a pretended angry look.

"Didn't you just finish your meal? Why are you hungry again so soon? I want to sleep. Don't disturb me, understand?"

Zhang Shi was responded with even more urgent shouts.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Pippi cried and circled around the bed.

Zhang Shi realized that something was wrong and stood up to look into the yard.

The wind and snow were still blowing, but the sky was bright and a row of shadows could be vaguely seen outside the courtyard wall.

Zhang Shi's face darkened and he stared at those figures fiercely.

"Damn it, he starts to cause trouble just when it's time to go to bed."

After saying that, Zhang Shi quickly dressed himself, gripped the compound bow tightly in his hand, and walked out of the villa with a murderous look on his face.

Pippi rushed in front of him, barking and circling around Zhang Shi.

Outside the iron gate, the invaders were attacking the courtyard wall. When they heard Pipi's cry, they all stopped what they were doing.

The entire shelter suddenly became quiet, with only the howling of wind and snow remaining.
