I'm speechless! You want me to drive a baby stroller on the highway to survive?

With the two zinc blocks in hand, all the materials for making the battery are now ready.

Lu Youyou wanted to make more batteries, but there were only two zinc blocks. Even with more other materials, she couldn't make one more battery.

Open the crafting table, select the battery blueprint. This time there are no empty spaces for fused energy fragments. Lu Youyou directly confirms the crafting.

"It seems that not everything can be fused with energy fragments."

Lu Youyou stared at her watch and muttered to herself.

In the short time it took to concentrate, the battery was already finished and automatically stored in the backpack compartment.

Lu Youyou checked the battery level of her electric car; it was only 27% full.

I originally planned to sell both batteries, but now it seems I'll have to keep one as a spare.

Although she had the battery blueprints, the zinc blocks were gone, and she couldn't make the next batch of batteries in a short time.

After careful consideration, Lu Youyou decided to sell only one piece, and would only consider selling more if she received zinc blocks during the transaction.

[Player 6666: I have batteries that can turn a rickshaw into an electric vehicle. Contact me privately if you're interested and offer a price.]

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Youyou didn't even need to tag all the members; her watch was already flooded with private messages.

Some people try to use moral blackmail, some feign pitifulness to gain sympathy, and others resort to coercion and bribery.

Lu Youyou ignored all the spam messages and swiped them away to focus on the people who were seriously bidding.

Ultimately, she chose the item that was most tempting to her.

[Red Light: I have a universal trolley charger. I can give it to you and exchange it for your battery. Are you there?]

Lu Youyou has a solar power source, plus a universal trolley charger, so it can be charged directly when it runs out of power, without having to change batteries back and forth.

[Player 6666: Okay, I'll trade with you.]

After the transaction was successful, Lu Youyou immediately took out the charger, plugged one end into the power bank and the other end into the electric vehicle's charging port.

A red light indicates that the device is charging.

Then, she continued to scroll through the flood of messages.

After all, she still has one battery to trade.

[Jin Mingcheng: Brother 66, I have a zinc block. Name your price, how much will you give me in exchange for a battery?]

Lu Youyou thought about how he had tricked her and didn't want to make a deal with him, but she realized that it was a move that would hurt the enemy a thousand times but also hurt herself eight hundred times.

The best way to vent your anger is to be a shrewd businessman and squeeze him for a hefty sum.

Then let's exchange it for 10 zinc blocks.

Do not!

If you're going to be a ruthless businessman, you have to be ruthless.

Ten of them are hardly considered unscrupulous.

[Player 6666: One battery can be exchanged for 50 zinc blocks.]

[Jin Mingcheng: Do I look like a zinc block to you? Let's be honest, I need it urgently.]

Lu Youyou pouted, but still wanted the zinc block.

[Player 6666: 40 players.]

[Jin Mingcheng: At most 15.]

[Player 6666: 20 players.]

[Jin Mingcheng: 16.]

Lu Youyou didn't agree immediately. She was calculating in her mind what amount Jin Mingcheng would agree to, without letting herself be led by the nose.

Just as I was struggling with this decision, I saw that Jin Mingcheng had sent me a message.

[Jin Mingcheng: Okay, 20 it is. I urgently need them. Let's exchange them quickly.]

Having suddenly become rich, Lu Youyou was preparing to start mass production of batteries when she discovered that she could only produce one.

Because there is only one copper block left.

With no other option, Lu Youyou had to solve the problem of basic materials first.

They took 10 plastics and exchanged them for 4 copper blocks and 3 rubbers. Combined with the materials they had stored up, they had just enough to make 5 batteries.

While working at the production station, Lu Youyou would check the messages that others had sent her.

After making the five batteries, she also picked out what she wanted.

[Virtual Manual: Bound to the survivor. Staring at a searchable item for more than three seconds will grant information about that item, visible only to the bound survivor.]

[Electric cooker *1: Comes with a steamer basket; can be used for making soup and steaming vegetables.]

[Large bottle of mineral water *1: Total 10L.]

[10 sanitary napkins: A great help during menstruation, remember to change them frequently.]

[Iodine swabs * 50: Clean, hygienic, and portable; can disinfect and sterilize, but not suitable for severe injuries.]

Collect what needs to be collected and bind what needs to be bound.

After tidying up, Lu Youyou, who had suddenly become rich, couldn't resist picking up a small bottle of mineral water and drinking more than half of it in one go.

He finished the rest of the mineral water in his second sip.

Since arriving here, she hadn't dared to drink water in large gulps, but now she can finally drink to her heart's content.

She only prepared to test the effect of the virtual instruction manual after finishing her water.

Staring intently at the mineral water bottle in her hand, Lu Youyou counted to three in her mind.

Three seconds later, a line of glowing words appeared next to the mineral water bottle.

[Mineral water bottle: It's empty, but you can still use it as a water cup, or break it down into plastic. If you like growing flowers on your trip, it's also a good vase choice.]

So that's how it's explained. It's much more convenient than scanning and identifying them one by one with a watch.

Lu Youyou was quite satisfied with the virtual instruction manual. She scrolled through the public chat, ate an apple, and then turned off the screen to rest.

She slept soundly in the truck bed until she naturally woke up.

When she woke up, the electric vehicle charger was already glowing green, and the number on the screen had turned 100%. Lu Youyou quickly unplugged the charger and put it away.

Then I took out the electric cooker and poured in a bottle of mineral water.

This morning she's going to have something luxurious – instant noodles!

Therefore, Lu Youyou took a special look at the leek basin and found that each leek had grown three centimeters taller.

Some of the food was not offensive; Lu Youyou pinched off a few pieces with her fingernails and set them aside for later use.

The pot was small, and there wasn't much water, but it boiled in just a few minutes, bubbling away.

Lu Youyou tore open the instant noodle packaging, added the noodles first, then the seasoning, and finally added chive leaves when it was done cooking.

The aroma of heavy oil and spice was irresistible, and Lu Youyou took a deep, blissful breath.

Who invented the method of cooking instant noodles?

She really wanted to slap her past self who used to avoid instant noodles when she was dieting.

I was truly unaware of how blessed I was back then.

She ate every last noodle and even drank all the broth.

Looking at the oil floating on the side of the pot, Lu Youyou put in a bottle of mineral water, swirled it in a few times, and then drank it.

Although it wasn't very clean, she'd leave it like this. She wouldn't even wash her own hair with water, let alone give the pot a bath.

After packing her things, Lu Youyou rode her bike forward.

The road was strange this morning; she didn't find a treasure chest or a station.

Am I just having bad luck?

Lu Youyou decided to stop and rest for a while, and also check if anyone on the public screen had encountered the same situation.

[Player 6839: Damn it, I've never been this unlucky before. I haven't seen a single treasure chest.]

[Zhang Yuning: I didn't find any treasure chests either, nor did I find a single site.]

[Sunny Pig: I can't find it, so you guys can't either. You know, I haven't had a single failure since I came here.]
