When I returned to the slum, I could already see the crimson of the sunset in the sky.

Exhausted, Lin Yun heard some footsteps from a distance, and was not sure of the identity of the comer, and wasted a lot of effort to dodge.

Holding the small piece of tree to the familiar shack, Lin Yun knocked on the door.

"Excuse me."

"Come in."

This conversation is inexplicably familiar.

Lin Yun carried the log into the shack.

"Uncle, collect the wood?"

The bald uncle's expression was suddenly stunned.

"Boy... Where did you get this tree? "

"Forest."

"Besides the northern one, are there other forests around here?"

"It should be the one in the north."

The big Bern pouted.

"Is there anything strange about that?"

"It's nothing, but I didn't expect that your silly boy with thin arms and legs turned out to be my companion." You have this little strength to run to the north, and the money you earn is not even enough to support yourself. "

Lin Yun was sweaty and just smiled.

"You just say that this tree can't be harvested."

"Not collected."

The bald uncle said darkly, and his eyes did not mean to joke at all.

"Don't take it?"

Lin Yun looked at the bundles of priced wood placed in the corner of this shack.

Behind the broken cardboard on the side, six small words were written crookedly: 'Wooden price is negotiable'.

Just by looking at it, you know that the texture of the wood is not much better than what you cut yourself.

Therefore, the uncle's words surprised Lin Yun a little.

"The price is negotiable."

"I'm not too much to sell you 8J."

Lin Yun offered a fairly low price.

Usually people with jobs can still easily do it with how to earn a few rents a day, but it is difficult to end the day, so Lin Yun did not think about it.

It is precisely because of this that the money comes most directly, so Lin Yun went to logging.

After seeing the price of this uncle, according to the pricing in Lin Yun's heart, although the money is a little less, this is at least the value of 9J.

After all, this is his entire labor force for a day.

——“3J。 "

"What?"

"Above this price, no talk."

After the uncle came over and inspected the wood, he looked at Lin Yun indifferently.

He had obviously seen the eagerness in Lin Yun's heart, and saw that Lin Yun was in urgent need of money now, and the unchanging expression on his face when he came to buy an axe during the day was just acted by this teenager.

Lin Yun gritted his teeth a little unpleasantly.

Does he have any other choice?

If you do business like this carpenter, you can afford to spend it, and sooner or later you can sell this wood at a high price.

But now he really has no way back.

"Are you so unkind to regular customers."

"During the day you knocked me out, it's called an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. And aren't we trading properly? "

"I know, let's make a deal."

Taking the three coins, Lin Yun walked out of the shack, and his body was a little out of strength.

The tattered clothes on his body could not withstand the wind and cold, but because of the excessive labor, he did not feel so cold.

Thanks to the fruit on the tree, although Lin Yun's hunger has returned, it has not reached the point of seriously affecting his physical strength.

The only thing that can be felt is the soreness of the muscles and endless exhaustion.

'Is it really worth it...'

Night is coming.

Lin Yun took out a coin and held it in his hand, and saw that at this time, people came out of their respective shacks.

Expecting that most of them were going to buy all the necessities of life, they followed behind and watched from afar.

Of course, if he was holding wood in his hands or dressed a little decently, Lin Yun would definitely not dare to do this.

Thanks to this gang of poor people, Lin Yun soon found merchants distributing food and water.

There are two well-dressed guards in front of this merchant, who seem to be a big household.

In this day and age, it is normal for merchants distributing food to be guarded, and imagine the terrible consequences if robbers attacked such merchants and sold the stolen food monopolized.

Since it is such a well-guarded large household, the grain sold should be quite good.

However, this is a merchant in the slums after all, how can Lin Yun expect too much?

Sure enough, one coin was exchanged for only three pieces of brown bread and a spoonful of water.

Potato? Corn? Q: It is a scarce resource, and the farmers themselves have not harvested this year, and they have been robbed of high prices.

Returning to his shack, Lin Yun began to accept today's loot.

Three pieces of black bread that were as hard as stones, after roasting them with flints igniting the flames made from dead grass, still could not arouse Lin Yun's appetite.

Vigorously nibbling on the second half, the desperately rough taste perfectly interprets the word chewing wax.

As for the clear water, there are still a few impurities floating on it, and the filtration treatment is quite inadequate.

I don't know how many times it was burned in a clay pot, Lin Yun could barely convince himself to drink it.

It's been a really humbling day.

But fortunately, Lin Yun finally saw a glimmer of hope of survival.

The water had not yet been drunk, and there were still two breads left, and Lin Yun, who could no longer eat, lay on the weeds and prepared to sleep.

I found the cleanest place in the shack, barely able to sleep, and the smell around me gradually became bearable.

Today was so exhausting that he couldn't do anything else, including thinking about tomorrow's arrangements.

————

The next day.

"Aa

A sneeze woke himself up.

The wooden door of his shack leaked the wind overnight, and it was not covered by a quilt, and Lin Yun was slightly cold.

There was no pillow, and the neck and back of the skull were painful.

It was also because of the neck pain that Lin Yun woke up exceptionally early today.

Breakfast – of course it's impossible.

If you insist on eating that black bread, it is not impossible to eat, but this dry food is still suitable to take on the road to replenish energy.

That's right, Lin Yun has already decided on today's plan.

He wants to fight the forest.

When I sold wood yesterday, I was indeed slaughtered by the uncle, but the errand of logging is definitely not bad.

Even if it was sold at such a low price, Lin Yun's one-day effort was enough to support himself.

And at the same time, he can also make his system get some improvement, if he changes his job, Lin Yun may not have such good luck.

Although the progress of growth is indeed pitifully slow, at least mosquito legs are also meat.

Yesterday's departure time was already late, today got up so early, should be able to chop a few more?

But I can't move back.

But what if you can't move back?

Time is money.

If you cut it in advance today, you can carry the tree back in advance, and you can free up a lot of time to sell.

After seeing the price of the profiteer uncle, Lin Yun also knew the price, even if he only sold a piece of wood at a time, he would definitely be able to earn his first pot of gold in the long run.

It's a bit too much to say that the first pot of gold is still the first bite of food.

After all, I have been in this world for so long, and I haven't even eaten hot food.
