Survival in the Mist: From a Dilapidated Wooden Hut to a Heavenly Palace in the Clouds

With a goal in mind, they were full of energy to work. As the saying goes, teamwork makes the dream work, and with Mo Ming and Song Yufei's cooperation, 20 steel cannons and more than 100 shells were successfully manufactured.

Mo Ming's shelter was stronger than Song Yufei's, especially since he had Xiao Jin, a deep blue-level pet, to guard it. So he only took 5 steel cannons and 30 shells.

The rest were set up around Song Yufei's shelter.

The two also used the remaining materials to build 20 catapults, which they placed next to the fence of Song Yufei's shelter, and prepared plenty of stones.

The rubber trade also went smoothly. Song Yufei used redwood, pine wood, and some peach wine to exchange for 5000 Ancient Spirit Coins at the Ancient Spirit Coin Exchange.

Then, spending 1500 Ancient Coins, at a ratio of 3:10, he purchased a total of 5000 units of rubber from different merchants.

Adding to Mo Ming's original 100 units of rubber, once all the manufacturing is completed, that will amount to 5100 condoms.

After Song Yufei settled her own shelter, she and Mo Ming returned to Mo Ming's shelter.

They embarked on their grand project of manufacturing condoms.

"Yufei, I have a question."

"what is the problem?"

"Um... it's just... we only have one size of condom... so... will anyone buy one and... not be able to use it?"

Mo Ming lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly, while Song Yufei's face had already turned red.

"Who cares about him!"

"Um...hehe, okay!"

Condoms are relatively simple to manufacture, requiring only 1 unit of rubber and 1 unit of fresh water, and they are also relatively small in size.

The bronze workbenches were manufactured very quickly, one every few seconds, and all five thousand were completed in less than two hours.

"Hey girl, you keep an eye on the condoms for now, I'm going to take a stroll in the pine forest."

"go Go!"

Song Yufei waved her hand casually. Her mind was entirely focused on condom sales; she had no time to care about Mo Ming.

Mo Ming left the shelter and came to the pine forest.

At this moment, five golden-horned longhorn beetles were eating weeds in the pine forest. Ever since the pine forest appeared, the whole family of golden-horned longhorn beetles wanted to move their entire nest here.

They come here almost every day; it's practically their paradise, with an endless supply of food.

The place was many times more spacious than the Beast King's Palace, and most importantly, there was no need to listen to the snoring of Xiong Da and Xiong Er anymore.

As Mo Ming walked through the pine forest, enjoying the beautiful scenery and planning for the future, an unusual situation suddenly occurred.

“Sasha…Sasha…”

A sound suddenly came from the bushes to the right, and the vines inside also started to sway.

Mo Ming couldn't help but frown: "I forgot to check the protection radar when I came out! Is there a wild animal lurking here?"

The golden-horned longhorn beetle was foraging nearby. If a powerful beastly aura suddenly appeared, given their territorial instincts, they wouldn't be able to graze peacefully anymore.

Since they didn't give any warning, they must be relatively weak wild animals, or at least not posing a threat to them.

However, Mo Ming did not dare to be careless. He immediately took out the bronze demon-suppressing sword from his spatial ring and carefully approached the bushes.

As Mo Ming approached, the rustling sound from the bushes gradually disappeared.

Just as Mo Ming was about to use his sword to part the vines on the bushes to investigate, a dark creature suddenly darted out from inside.

Judging by its size, is it a wild boar?

Mo Ming didn't give chase; in this kind of forest, catching a wild boar was practically impossible.

Even if the Golden Horned Longhorn Beetle were to chase them, unless they were allowed to wreak havoc here, they might not be able to catch up.

It seems that Song Xiaoniu was right; my pine forest has indeed attracted some uninvited guests.

After wandering around the pine forest, Mo Ming spotted a total of four different animals.

The animals included a dark, possibly wild boar, pheasants, squirrels, and some birds.

Of course, there may be other animals, but Mo Ming just hasn't seen them yet.

It seems that the development of the aquaculture industry is just around the corner.

Upon returning, Mo Ming decided to buy some traps specifically to capture these uninvited guests and then raise them in Song Yufei's breeding box.

With planting and animal husbandry going hand in hand—no, and also the condom industry—he could become a giant in the Misty World in the future.

Just like the richest people in the original world who made it onto the Forbes list.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He immediately searched on short video platforms and found the trap he was looking for.

These traps are specifically designed to capture wild animals alive, especially wild boars.

Its shape is similar to those built by survivors in wilderness survival shows on TV. A fence is made of wood, and then the gate of the fence is pulled up and held in place with a rope. The other end of the rope is tied to the bait inside the fence.

When the wild boar comes in to eat the bait, it triggers a mechanism, which loosens the rope, causing the wooden door to drop and trap the boar inside.

The traps aren't too expensive, 100 Ancient Coins each.

After discussing it with Song Yufei, Mo Ming simply bought 10 of them and placed them all in the pine forest.

Then the bait is placed, and all that's left is to invite the pig...into the trap.
