Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Chapter 500 - 226: After the Disaster, Large-scale Construction!

Hearing others say that Cao Xing’s pricing was quite expensive.

The survivors in District 174 immediately retorted, “This price is very reasonable, okay, others are now selling for six or seven hundred per piece.”

“Yeah, yeah, Cao Xing Big Brother’s value has always been very approachable.”

“Stop talking, brothers, hurry up and grab it, there are only 500 sets, if you’re slow, they’ll be gone!”

With more and more people rushing out of the Lord’s Hut.

The 500 sets of cotton clothes were almost all snatched up in less than two minutes!

After all, there are over 200,000 people in District 17 now.

And many people bought more than one set.

So Cao Xing’s cotton clothes were almost instantly sold out.

Looking at the [Sold Out] sign above, the survivors who didn’t manage to grab any wailed in despair.

“Dammit, you guys are way too quick. I braved this heavy snow without even wearing pants and rushed out, yet I still couldn’t beat you.”

“Haha! I grabbed two sets, now my daughter won’t freeze!”

“I got 3 sets, fantastic, luckily I’m from District 174, Cao Xing Big Brother really cares about us, haha.”

At this moment, people from other districts were enviously watching.

They naturally could see Cao Xing’s care for the survivors of District 174.

“So envious, Cao Xing Big Brother is so good to the people of his district.”

“Yeah… unlike the guys in our district, who only think about sucking us dry, wishing they could sell a loaf of bread for 500,000 Ice Dragon Marks!”

“I think I understand why the brothers in District 174 respect Cao Xing Big Brother so much…”

…

…

At this moment, those who got the cotton clothes were overjoyed.

And Cao Xing had a surprised smile on his face!

Because through this wave of trading, he directly earned 300,000 Ice Dragon Marks!

His [Ice Dragon Mark] count had officially reached 390,000!

“Great, just 110,000 Ice Dragon Marks more, and I can exchange for the legendary Bright Moon Treasure Box!”

“I wonder what kind of things can be opened from this Treasure Box.”

Cao Xing had an expectant look in his eyes, even wanting to trade again on the spot.

But unfortunately, he didn’t have enough cotton clothes left.

The remaining ones were reserved for his own use.

Still, he earned quite a lot from this trade.

Even Cao Xing himself hadn’t expected these cotton clothes to sell for such a high price.

With just 110,000 more Ice Dragon Marks, participating in a medium Ice Dragon Horn challenge would earn it back.

He returned to his room satisfied.

Then, in the howling snowstorm, Cao Xing lay in a warm bed, holding the beauty in his arms, and fell asleep peacefully.

…

…

The next day.

The system prompt appeared as scheduled.

[Survivors, please pay attention, you have now completed Day 10 of the official period.]

[Weather forecast: The blizzard weather will continue today and is expected to last the entire day. Please reduce outdoor activities and take precautions against natural disasters caused by severe weather.]

…

In the Lord’s Hut.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue woke up at the same time.

The two exchanged a glance.

Liu Muxue whispered, “Axing, this blizzard seems to last all day, can we not go out?”

Cao Xing nodded and said, “Yes, not only can we not go out, but the development of the territory will also have to stop.”

Clearly, sending Dazhuang and others out to build houses in this terrible weather was extremely dangerous.

“But it’s okay, we’ll just stay in our room today and go out after the blizzard stops.”

Liu Muxue nodded slightly.

After speaking, Cao Xing dialed the communication device on his ear.

Then he informed his subjects, telling them they didn’t have to work today.

All work in the territory was suspended, including collecting resources and building territory facilities.

If hungry, they could go to the cafeteria for some bread, minimizing outdoor activities.

All the subjects obeyed the order, staying obediently in their rooms.

Including Cao Xing and Liu Muxue, who did not go out either.

They just stayed in their warm Lord’s Hut.

When hungry, they would take out roasted rabbit meat, cured meat, as well as bread and milk from their backpack.

Life went on quite comfortably.

The blizzard outside seemed to have no effect on them.

…

…

At this time, about a hundred kilometers away from Cao Xing, there was a reasonably-sized territory.

A Level 4 Lord’s Hut, Level 8 Big Bonfire, and many residential houses.

Various basic constructions had almost all been built.

Normally, such a territory could withstand some bad weather.

But now it was a blizzard.

The howling gale became more and more intense.

Some [Basic Level Watchtowers] in the territory kept swaying, eventually breaking completely after a while.

Then they directly crashed down.

“Boom! Boom boom!”

A two-story [Residential House] was hit through its roof, terrifying the Polar People inside.

There were even two unlucky fellows crushed to death on the spot.

A man holding a great sword quickly rushed out from the Lord’s Hut.

It was Wu Xinghu.

He saw the system prompt of the Polar People’s deaths.

Seeing this, Wu Xinghu’s face changed,

“Damn it! If I’d known, I wouldn’t have built the watchtower and Elemental Arrow Tower so close to the residential houses!”

But he also knew there was nothing he could do. No one had anticipated the sudden onslaught of the blizzard.

Seeing that a few Elemental Arrow Towers were about to be blown over.

Wu Xinghu quickly ordered all survivors in the territory to come out, seize the time to dismantle the arrow towers and other tall structures nearby, and repair the damaged houses in the territory.

Following the order, a group swiftly emerged from the room.
