Taming Beasts To Survive: I Can See The Prompts Chapter 8
Advertisement
The aroma of the roasted meat stimulated Mcgee and the Spirit Fox's taste buds.
Mcgee had been busy for a whole day and was already starving. So he quickly shared a piece of roasted meat with the Spirit Fox and started eating.
"System Notification: You have a new private message."
"System Notification: You have a new friend request."
...
There were countless private message notifications, so noisy that Mcgee's head was about to explode.
Mcgee opened the chat box to take a look. The private message column already showed 99 + messages.
Moreover, there were still many friend requests being sent over.
Mcgee took a rough look. Most of them were people who wanted to get something for nothing.
Only a small number of people were asking Mcgee if they could barter.
Mcgee thought for a while. He would not be able to finish 300 servings of charging pig meat.
He also needed to exchange for some other things, such as iron, stone, and wood.
The preciousness of these things varied.
According to the current trend of the community trade, it was probably...
1 bronze block = 5 iron block = 25 wood = 25 stone, 1 iron block = 5 wood = 5 stone.
Mcgee's biggest advantage now was the bush not far away.
He could get enough food from it, but if he wanted to be ahead of the others in development from the beginning, food would not be enough.
So Mcgee was going to sell some of the pig meat in exchange for a variety of materials.
After thinking about it, Mcgee opened the community and saw that there were already many items for sale.
The most were apples.
Apples × 1
Price: Wood × 1.
Apples × 1
Price: Stone × 1.
Mcgee looked at the apples sold in the trading area. Most of the apples were sold by a person named Wang Fei.

It seemed that there must be a large area of apple trees near Wang Fei's home.
Mcgee calculated the price roughly and then put 50 servings of Vanguard pork on the shelves.
Vanguard pork × 1
Price: Wood × 5.
Vanguard pork × 1
Price: Stone × 5.
Mcgee found through collecting wood yesterday that an average tree could produce about two servings of wood.
And the time to cut down a tree was generally about an hour.
Because there were no tools now, the cutting speed would become very slow.
Mcgee was not going to waste time collecting these things.
As soon as Mcgee put these on the shelves, the chat channel immediately exploded.
"Brothers, someone has put 50 servings of fresh pork on the shelves in the community. They're crazy fast!"
"That's impossible. How can there be someone who can hunt wild boars now?"
"Wow! It's true! It's that big shot who just posted the barbecue photo!"
"Who has such a big mouth? There's only so much good stuff, why are you shouting all over the world! Idiot!"
"F*ck! Don't say it out loud, I'm still chopping down trees and preparing to exchange for it!"
"Big shot, look at me, big shot, look at me! I haven't eaten anything all day, give me something to eat, Please!"
"Damn! Why is it so expensive? He's taking advantage of the situation!"
"Big brother, you're so awesome!"
"Damn, my tamed beast just rebelled because he was too hungry!"
...
"System Notification: You have sold Vanguard pork × 1, obtained iron block × 1."
"System Notification: You have sold Vanguard pork × 1, obtained wood × 5."
After a short while, the pork on Mcgee's shelves was swept clean.
On the world channel, countless people were complaining about the bastard who spread the news.

"F*ck, it's all that bastard's fault. I just used an apple to exchange for some ingredients. When I was about to exchange it, I saw that the pork was gone!"
"Speechless, I didn't get a piece!"
"By the way, where did this boss get his pork? He can kill a vanguard pig now. I don't think it's realistic!"
"I think so too. Charging pigs have thick skin and two skills!"
"Yeah, no matter how you look at it, this isn't something that we can do now!"
"Do you guys think that he chose a charging pig as his tamed beast at the beginning and then went crazy from hunger and killed his pet?"
"The current Sherlock Holmes upstairs! The truth is out!"
"Damn, I thought he was some big shot, but it turns out he's just a good-for-nothing who killed his tamed beast due to hunger."
"Tsk, so that's how it is. I almost thought he was a hidden big shot."
"After killing his own tamed beast, he still has the face to post a picture to show off. How shameless."
...
After seeing the comments of those people, Mcgee did not know whether to laugh or cry as he frowned, they were just frogs at the bottom of a well who were envious and jealous. Mcgee could not even be bothered with them.
But after seeing how well the pieces of Vanguard pork were selling, Mcgee decided to go again.
It seemed that during this period of time, food sources were quite scarce.
This time, he could raise the price appropriately and take the opportunity to collect a wave of materials.
So Mcgee opened the community again, and this time, he directly put on the shelves 100 pieces of Vanguard pork.
Vanguard pork × 1
Price: Iron block × 2, or wood × 10, or stone × 10, or any drawing × 1.
The price had doubled. If anyone wanted to buy a serving of Vanguard pork, he would need to cut down trees for half a day.
On the world channel, there was another uproar.
"F*ck, the boss has served another 100 servings of pork!"
"Haha, who said that the boss killed his own tamed beast? Continue shouting!"
"The boss is indeed a boss. He does not even bother to argue with you. He directly slaps you in the face with his strength!"
"I'm just short of mixing grass roots with soil for every meal, and the big boss's meat is already so much that he can't finish it?"
"The big boss is indeed a big boss. If he has the strength, why can't he make a name for himself?"
"Is the big boss still short of running errands? Bring me along. If the big boss doesn't mind, I can even warm the bed!"
"But the price this time is so expensive. The big boss pitied me and offered me a cheaper price."
"What's the use of stone and wood now? I'm starving to death. If you don't exchange it, I'll burn you to death."
"Exactly. If you don't exchange it, I'll burn you to death."
"Hahaha, I've exchanged for one. Finally, meat!"
"I've also exchanged it. Boss, awesome! Long live the boss!"
