Ding.
Transaction successful.
Black bread -20, white bread -20, ham -20, exquisite roasted rat meat -8.
Stone +350, iron block +200.
This is great.
Seeing these resources, Chen Yu's face was filled with a smile.
It's still necessary to sell food.
If all the food Chen Yu currently had in stock could be sold, his overall strength would definitely increase exponentially.
"Work hard and don't disappoint me."
Clicking on private messages, Chen Yu sent a message.
"You bet."
Wang Jingze replied confidently.
Not bad.
This kid actually has some skills.
After arriving in the cave, he contacted all his former classmates and formed a small organization. He was the leader of the organization, and he also held a small leadership position under Liao Dao.
He might not be personally wealthy.
But he had many people!
With a shout, they pooled their resources, and truly obtained a lot of basic supplies.
Chen Yu suspected now.
That Jiang Yaqing's situation was probably similar.
She had a group of people under her.
The collected resources were handed over to her, and she allocated them uniformly.
This was also why she almost starved to death shortly after entering the cave.
Within a few days, she became incredibly rich.
As expected—
To get rich, one must develop a downline.
Chen Yu didn't have as many subordinates as Wang Jingze and the others, so he could only capture more slaves to work for him.
Not today.
The cave invitations were all used up.
After gathering a batch of resources, Chen Yu decided to upgrade the water condenser. He still remembered that there was a rare-grade water condenser that needed upgrading.
[Rare Water Condenser (Upgradable)]
[Upgrade required: Water elemental crystal fragments 36/6, Fire elemental crystal fragments 23/6, Stone 470/120, Iron block 255/120, Silver block 197/30]
[Time required: 12 hours]
"Upgrade."
[Cave Reminder: Rare Water Condenser upgrading, remaining time 9 hours]
"Aow..."
Stretching lazily, Chen Yu yawned and fell onto the bed.
The night was quiet.
Chen Yu slept soundly.
Little did he know that the area was brewing with undercurrents.
Wang Jingze had now been completely turned.
It wasn't his fault.
If persistence had been effective, he swore he would never betray and boycott the organization for a bite of meat.
It was truly meaningless.
Chen Yu, possessing the Iliya bracelet, was not afraid of a war of attrition.
In the end, they would be the ones suffering.
Biting into white bread with roasted meat, after a hearty meal, Wang Jingze opened his contact list.
Chen Yu was starred and pinned.
This was understandable.
Scrolling down, he finally stopped at Liao Dao's page.
"Brother Dao."
After sending the message, Wang Jingze quietly waited for a reply.
He was ready to execute the plan.
Although he didn't quite understand why Chen Yu wanted him to do it, this wasn't something he should think about. He just needed to do as he was told.
After all, it didn't affect him in any way.
About half a minute later—
"?"
A reply.
Wang Jingze's heart pounded like a drum.
Glancing at the roasted meat.
He gritted his teeth and sent a voice message.
"Hello."
In his wristband, Liao Dao's lazy voice came through.
It could be heard that he was already sleepy.
Wang Jingze took a deep breath, lowered his voice, and said seriously.
"Brother Dao, there's a situation, it's about Chen Yu's message."
"Speak!"
Liao Dao instantly became alert.
"Damn Chen Yu."
He hated him to the core now.
"Chen Yu is about to give up." Wang Jingze said confidently.
"How so?"
"He just messaged me privately, wanting to sell me food at a low price. I righteously refused. If nothing unexpected happens, his food is about to expire."
"Good!"
Upon hearing this news, Liao Dao excitedly slapped his thigh.
"Now, tell the brothers this news and have everyone tighten their belts for a while. The boycott is about to pay off."
"It would be best if you announced this good news."
Wang Jingze chuckled.
"You don't need to mention that I told you. Just say that it's accurate intelligence you received. This way, your image in everyone's hearts will be even more majestic."
Liao Dao was silent for a long time after hearing this.
"Jingze, you..."
Liao Dao's voice seemed to carry a touch of emotion.
"Alright, Dao, I'll remember you. From now on, you are the vice-president of our Tyrant Saber Society."
"Oh, this..." Wang Jingze was too excited to speak for a full half minute, "Brother Dao, you are too righteous to your brothers. I will follow you from now on."
"Then why don't we become sworn brothers right here on this voice call!"
"Big Brother!"
"Second Brother!!!"
The two shouted affectionately into the wristband's voice call, their emotions so strong that they almost knelt down to kowtow to heaven through the wristband.
"Big Brother, I think we can have a good negotiation with Chen Yu on the area chat page tomorrow morning." Wang Jingze suddenly changed the subject. "Chen Yu can't hold on any longer. If we pressure him in the chat channel, he definitely won't be able to resist."
"You're right!"
Liao Dao nodded solemnly.
"Second Brother, get some good rest. I'll handle the rest."
The call ended.
Liao Dao indeed went to the boycott group and began to spread the news widely.
The group members were all invigorated upon hearing this news.
Wang Jingze quietly went into hiding.
Watching the heated atmosphere in the group, he clicked on Chen Yu's private message and sent a message.
Ding dong.
Ding dong.
Ding dong!
The next morning, Chen Yu, still groggy from sleep, was awakened by the frequent notification sounds.
He raised his hand and checked his wristband.
It was an invitation for a voice call from a "fat sheep."
"Hello."
Chen Yu yawned and responded lazily.
"Are you still sleeping? Quickly check the area channel, Liao Dao and the others want to confront you." Jiang Yaqing's anxious voice came through.
"Ah?"
Chen Yu, still a bit dazed, blinked and clicked on his private message, seeing Wang Jingze's message.
"Boss, the plan succeeded."
Alright.
They were quite quick.
Chen Yu's face beamed with a smile. He also clicked on the cave reminder.
[Cave Reminder: Rare Water Condenser upgrade successful]
Did I sleep for that long?
Rubbing his eyes, Chen Yu muttered and rolled out of bed, running to the water condenser.
Two perfect-grade water condensers.
Daily water production: 40 liters.
This was all money.
If 1ml of water was considered 1 yuan, Chen Yu's net profit from water condensation alone would be 40,000 yuan per day.
Not counting other income.
"Chen Yu, have you fallen asleep again?" Jiang Yaqing's voice came again. "Chen Yu, Chen Yu, Chen Yu, Chen Yu, wake up."
"Oh dear, calling for my soul?" Chen Yu frowned.
"Have you even looked at the area chat?"
"What's the hurry? I just woke up, don't I need to wash my face?"
"You still have time to wash your face? You should check the area chat. The current situation is very unfavorable to you."
"Who says?" Chen Yu pouted dismissively. "What kind of waves can those people stir up? Why all the fuss?"
"Chen Yu—"
"Stop yelling. Believe it or not, I'll make their alliance collapse within ten minutes, and I'll even make Liao Dao unable to stay in the cave."
"Huh? Are you awake?"
Jiang Yaqing's surprised voice came from the wristband.
"Don't believe me?"
"I don't believe you!"
"Then what do you want to bet on? Dare you?" Chen Yu smiled slightly. Jiang Yaqing pouted, "Stop bragging, okay?"
"Just tell me if you dare!" Chen Yu scoffed.
"You ask me if I dare? Oh, there's nothing in this world that I, Jiang Yaqing, wouldn't dare to do. Just tell me what you're betting!"
Sitting on the princess bed, Jiang Yaqing put her hand on her hip, her spirit soaring.
"I'll bet with you!"
