Chapter 8: Chapter 8 Harvest: Steel Plate
Jack clicked on the link. It was a picture of the steel plate.
He moved his fingers on the picture, and the picture could change the angle as his fingers touched it.
What was more, it could be transformed into a holographic projection.
Jack checked it carefully and confirmed that it was indeed a steel plate.
And the item was exactly the same as what the person had described.
It was indeed disassembled from a container.
The steel plate was precisely bent into a triangle.
This shape couldn't be better for building a shelter.
Judging from the camber, it seemed that it was caused by a fierce impact.
But it could resist such a big impact, which meant that the quality of this steel plate was really good.
Therefore, this steel plate met Jack's requirements.
"Are you satisfied with the materials?"
A message came.
To be alive is the true ability: "Not bad."
To be alive is the true ability: "What are you going to exchange for?"
Jack found that the man's link didn't mean to the drinking water. The man might want more than just drinking water.
"Enough food for two days, plus twenty bottles of drinking water!"
To be alive is the true ability: "..."
Although Jack knew that the man would be definitely extorted, he didn't expect that person to be so outrageous.
This steel plate met Jack's requirements.
But drinking water and food were more valuable than it.
Twenty bottles of drinking water and food for two days were too much.
"Where are you? Buddy? Why don't you say something?"
Jack didn't reply immediately on purpose. He waited quietly for a while. Sure enough, the man couldn't calm down and immediately asked.
Jack rolled his eyes and replied briefly.
To be alive is the true ability: "My God, only those whose brain is stuck in the crack of the door will agree to your request."
The man seemed to know Jack's reaction and replied quickly.
"Buddy, if I'm not wrong, are you going to use this steel plate to build a shelter?"
"You think of building a shelter so soon, which means you know a lot about how to survive. I believe this business is not bad for you."
"This steel plate will definitely make your shelter safer and more stable. I can assure you, my buddy, this steel plate is tailor-made for your shelter."
"What's more, only I have such a large piece of steel plate in the transaction channel."
"If you don't choose me, you will regret it. Buddy, this deal is very good. It's worth this price."
The man sent a series of messages. Obviously, he had been well prepared. It seemed that he had put a lot of effort into it.
Jack frowned.
There was no problem with what the man said. He also agreed with these views. After all, only that man could get such a large piece of steel plate in the entire transaction channel.
On the other hand, even if he didn't need shelter in the future, such a large piece of steel plate can be refined into tons of steel when he used it again. It was good for both material objects and raw materials.
But Jack wouldn't agree to such an unreasonable request, he replied.
To be alive is the true ability: "You are a humorous person. Who told you that the shelter couldn't be built without steel plates?"
To be alive is the true ability: "I have a lot of woods, stones, and cement here. These raw materials can be used to build a shelter, and they work no worse than your steel plate."
To be alive is the true ability: "This steel plate is only able to block the wind for me. Without it, I can still build a shelter. Dude, I don't feel the sincerity from you. I'd better find someone else."
After sending the message, Jack kept silent for a while. The chat box kept showing "the other party is typing".
Jack raised his eyebrows. He knew that the man was wavering, and he wasn't in a hurry. After all, the victory was tilted to him.
The two sides were in a stalemate for a while, and the man finally let go. He sent another message.
"Buddy, I admit that what you said is reasonable, but I also need to survive. Your bid."
To be alive is the true ability: "Two bottles of drinking water, five pieces of bread, and a ham."
"Buddy, your business is going too far. I want twenty bottles of drinking water, but you compressed two bottles. That's too much."
The man also sent a NO Emoji.
"At least ten bottles!"
To be alive is the true ability: "Five bottles, no bargain. You can trade if you want, or, I'm looking for someone else."
Jack didn't want to bargain with that man anymore, so he determined the price.
The man didn't say anything. On the contrary, "The other party is typing" constantly appeared.
He seemed to be self-struggling.
After a full minute, the message was sent.
"Buddy, trust me. This steel plate is definitely not at this price. You are a smart person. You should know that metal is the most important resource for survival in the future."
Jack smiled at the new-came message.
He thought the man would cancel the deal directly, but he didn't expect that the man was still struggling in vain.
In that case, he would give him a fatal blow.
To be alive is the true ability: "You are wrong. Water is the source of life!"
Without water, no matter how many metal materials he had and how strong a shelter he had built, he would eventually die of lack of water, and these things would be plundered by others sooner or later.
Only when human beings survive can they build a shelter and enjoy these so-called precious metals.
"Err..."
Jack's words dumbfounded the man.
"Is this a strong argument?"
"Can't I live without your drinking water?"
He wanted to refute, but he couldn't think of an appropriate reason.
Besides, he didn't want to fall out with Jack completely.
He had browsed the trading channel for a long time. Jack was the only person who sold water in public.
Besides, there were ten bottles in total. As long as a normal person could know the importance of the water source, it must be on the metal material.
After a moment of silence, he sent a message.
"Dude, you're exaggerating. Water is indeed important, but I don't have to drink water. The worst result is... I drink my own excretory fluid!"
Jack didn't expect that.
He opened his mouth and sent a message.
To be alive is the true ability: "You are a very man. Since you are so courageous, I have nothing to say. If you have the courage to say something like that, I hope you will have the courage to act as well."
The man seemed to know that he was parading his ability, and he fell silent again.
Another minute later, he finally sent a message.
"One more ham, this is my bottom line."
"Deal!"
Jack replied quickly with a smile.
Then the deal was completed quickly.
Send the goods and materials that the man needs one by one.
After confirming that there was no mistake, the man also sent an item.
This was the steel plate that Jack needed.
