Ahhhhh, high-altitude survival!

Chapter 42, You should do more to help share the burden.

Seeing Lin Yue say this, Zhao Yuxuan had no choice but to accept it. However, Huang Wenmin and Li Guang, for some reason, were unwilling to give up and continued to argue on the public screen.

They seemed convinced that since Lin Yue could do it herself, she must know the reason, and the only reason she wasn't telling them was because she was selfish and wanted to monopolize all the business. So this ice basin business must be very profitable!

The two kept criticizing Lin Yue in the public chat, labeling her with accusations such as "selfish," "self-serving," "inconsiderate of others' lives," and "long hair but short brains," making the public chat a chaotic mess.

Just then, Han Weiyi sent a message in the small group: "Sister, I also got the ice basin blueprint."

It turns out that when Huang Wenmin and the others were bragging about getting the Ice Basin blueprint in the public chat, Han Weiyi was already a little unhappy. Was her title of "Lucky Princess" just for show? How could others get chests she couldn't?

So, after finishing the transaction of a batch of goods, Han Weiyi deliberately stopped to rest for ten minutes and went to the yard to open the boxes.

Her yard was huge, and she'd collected all the airdrops from day one, accumulating quite a few crates. And this time, she actually managed to open one!

Lin Yue opened the picture of the ice basin that Han Weiyi had uploaded and looked at it. Seeing that it was exactly the same as Zhao Yuxuan's, a thought struck her. This would be a perfect opportunity to verify her guess.

So she sent a message: "Weiyi, could you send me the blueprints to take a look?"

Han Weiyi readily sent over the blueprints, and when Lin Yue looked at them at the workbench, she indeed found a new instruction manual for making an ice basin.

【冰盆:冷藏工具之一,能够保存食物并具有一定的冷却降温效果,需要获得图纸并通过工作台解锁制作。所需材料为硝石*2(现有567)、铁块*2(现有431)、矿泉水*2(现有212)。是否制作?】

You can make it yourself, but the materials required for this ice basin blueprint are exactly twice that of the improved version.

Lin Yue had a plan in mind. She returned the ice basin blueprint to Han Weiyi and then said, "Weiyi, I have a rough idea. Go and give it a try. I think you should be able to make it too."

Han Weiyi sent over the blueprints as soon as she received them. She probably hasn't tried it herself yet, but if she did, she should be able to do it. After all, Han Weiyi's house is much larger than my platform.

Han Weiyi did try it, and not long after, she sent a message: "Sister, I can do it."

Lin Yue laughed. It was indeed a problem with the tool table upgrade; now she understood why Zhao Yuxuan couldn't make it. But why did she tell him?

Lin Yue continued to ask Han Weiyi, "Weiyi, are you planning to make ice basins to sell?"

While gulping down the mint water Lin Yue had sent her, Han Weiyi kept shaking her head: "No, I don't want to do it, sister, I'm so tired."

After a few seconds, he seemed to realize something and asked hesitantly, "Does my sister need my help? If so, I can try."

Seeing the girl's reluctant expression, Lin Yue smiled and said, "It's okay, I won't force you if you don't want to do it."

Little Lucky Girl had plenty of fire-avoiding stones, so she could have comfortably enjoyed these past few days. But now that she's been dragged here to compile customer lists and ship orders, she's already exhausted enough. It's not surprising that Lin Yue doesn't want to make ice basins.

Seeing that Han Weiyi really didn't want to do it, Zhou Zeyang was somewhat tempted. He was a little embarrassed, but after hesitating for a while, he still raised his hand in the group and said, "Um, Sister Lin, Weiyi, can I do it? If you don't mind, I'd be happy to. I'm not afraid of hard work."

What's there for a grown man to be afraid of about being tired? He's only afraid of not earning enough supplies.

Han Weiyi seemed quite generous: "Sure, I don't mind. Shall I give you the blueprints?"

Zhou Zeyang didn't accept it directly. Instead, he paused for a moment and then asked Lin Yue hesitantly, "Sister, am I stealing your business? Wouldn't that be inappropriate?"

Lin Yue breathed a sigh of relief and said in a relaxed tone, "Don't worry, there's always business to be had. I'd love for you guys to do more and help share the burden."

Seeing that they both agreed, Zhou Zeyang became incredibly excited, as if he'd been injected with adrenaline: "Okay, then I'll do it. Wei Yi, how much do you want to sell your drawings for?"

Han Weiyi had never really thought about this question, as she had almost never actively sold anything before, so she turned to Lin Yue for help.

Lin Yue pondered for a moment and suggested, "How about we let Wei Yi contribute the blueprints as equity? She can get 20% of the profits from the materials you earn, what do you think?"

Zhou Zeyang agreed without hesitation. Everyone knew the importance of the ice basin, and getting it was a win.

Han Weiyi also thought the plan was good. She wouldn't have to work hard and could collect the materials without lifting a finger. She nodded in agreement, and the two happily exchanged the blueprints.

After receiving the blueprints, Zhou Zeyang couldn't wait to try them out, but then he looked distressed and said, "Sister Lin Yue, I can't do it here either."

He was puzzled: "Why can you all do it, but I can't? Is there some kind of gender restriction on this blueprint? Sweetie, why don't you give it a try?"

Although Xu Tiantian thought the reason was a bit far-fetched, she still took the blueprint and tried it out, then quickly returned it to Zhou Zeyang: "I can't do it either!"

Zhou Zeyang's face fell, and he began to speculate wildly. Lin Yue, exasperated, stopped Zhou Zeyang from having any more outlandish ideas and explained, "It's because the tool table level is too low."

"The tool table level is not high enough?" Zhou Zeyang repeated in confusion.

“Yes,” Lin Yue continued, “Once the platform is expanded to 100 square meters, the workbench will be upgraded, and the upgraded workbench will be able to make ice basins. How much area do you still need?”

"100 square meters?" Zhou Zeyang clicked his tongue in surprise. He quickly calculated and then replied with some difficulty, "Sister Lin, that's a bit far off. My platform is currently 32 square meters, and the three of us only have a total of 60 pieces of wood."

The three of them worked together from the start, and the platform they built was already quite large. However, high-altitude timber resources are scarce, and they were able to accumulate so much thanks to their good luck and the results of exchanging and trading.

Lin Yue quickly calculated that she was still short more than two hundred, which was indeed a considerable amount. But fortunately, she had obtained a lot of wood from chopping trees on the island these past two days, and collecting some more would be enough for the boxes. So she nodded: "I'll send it to you, you can upgrade first."
