This time, five supply boxes actually yielded 8 cornerstones!
Sure enough, the probability of opening the cornerstone is higher than before. It seems that the rules of this world still leave them a glimmer of hope!
But no water or food was given!
This is not important at all to Xiao Yi. He is more concerned about the manufacturing diagram of the wind powered waterwheel.
"[Wind-powered waterwheel manufacturing diagram]: Wood*90, metal sheet*30."
"We have enough supplies, hurry up and build it!" Xiao Yi immediately rushed to the island monument and chose to build a wind-powered waterwheel.
The corresponding materials disappeared, and a windmill with 18 fan blades appeared in the manufacturing space.
"Please choose a placement location. Note: it needs to be placed in a location with sufficient wind. If you need to use the water wheel to draw water, it needs to be placed near the water!"
"A wind-powered waterwheel is not used to collect water. How can it be used for decoration?" Xiao Yi complained, and then placed it on the beach closest to the water tank.
After nearly a week of observation, there is a period of relatively strong wind here every day.
At present, I don’t use a lot of water. As long as the wind turbine can work for a while every day, the water tank should be full of water!
Xiao Yi came to the side where the wind powered waterwheel was placed and was a little surprised when he saw the huge disk.
This wind-powered waterwheel is eight meters tall, and there is a small bucket for scooping water on the edge of each fan blade.
The wind blew on the fan blades, causing the windmill to rotate. The fan blades cut across the sea, and the small bucket was filled with sea water.
When the keg is tilted, there is a wooden sink just in the direction of the keg's tilt. All the water in the keg is poured into the sink and flows along the sink to the island!
But Xiao Yi discovered that this cheating island monument did not connect the water tank long enough, and he needed to lengthen it himself to connect it to the water tank!
"Your uncle!" Xiao Yi spat out something sweet, then took out the tool box and prepared to extend the sink.
About an hour later, Xiao Yi looked at the sink he had made and was speechless.
It was very rough, even after some seawater was poured in it, there was still some water leakage!
"If it leaks, let it leak. Let's make do with it first!" Xiao Yi sighed, and then connected the sink to the water tank.
"Whoosh!"
The wind-powered waterwheel continuously scoops out seawater and flows it into the water tank.
"Although it's a little slow, I finally don't have to pour water again and again!" Xiao Yi muttered, looking at the still leaking sink with satisfaction.
Xiao Yi put away the toolbox and walked back to the apartment: "Hey, these strawberries are ripe and should be ready to eat!"
Seeing that the strawberries planted in the wooden basin had turned bright red, Xiao Yi thought for a while and asked Yuan Nong first.
"Mr. Yuan, can we collect strawberry seeds?" Xiao Yi asked.
Yuan Nong immediately replied: "Yes! The seeds on the ripe strawberries are seeds. Use a knife to peel off the outer skin. Be careful not to damage the seeds. Then dry the skin and the seeds will fall off on their own!"
"Okay!" Xiao Yi responded, then took out a knife from the tool box and harvested all the ripe strawberries, getting a total of 27 strawberries.
Then he carefully cut off the outer skin of the strawberry. In order to prevent damage to the seeds, Xiao Yi also cut a little deeper. After cutting one piece, he put the skin aside and stuffed the pulp inside directly into his mouth.
"Mmm, sweet and delicious!"
Xiao Yi continued to cut all the remaining strawberries.
"Cutting the epidermis is really a delicate job!" Xiao Yi turned his somewhat stiff neck and looked at the epidermis in front of him, feeling an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.
Looking at the strawberries that had been cut to the pulp, Xiao Yi gave four to each of Su Wan and the other three!
“[Strawberry Pulp]*80g No Deal!”
"The strawberries I cut off the skin are a bit ugly, but they taste pretty good!"
After Xiao Yi finished the transaction, he saw the potatoes he had left for two days and muttered: "Aren't potatoes easy to sprout? Why haven't they sprouted yet?"
So Xiao Yi sent another message to Yuan Nong: "Mr. Yuan, can we plant potatoes only after they sprout?"
Mr. Yuan had just accepted the strawberry deal and was very touched. He didn't expect Xiao Yi to be willing to give him the fruit.
Although I was moved, I was naturally a little shocked, but it was no longer as shocking as it was at the beginning.
Because Xiao Yi would bring out some fruits and vegetables from time to time, and also provide grilled fish and pure water every day. The supplies were so rich that it was no surprise!
"To plant potatoes, you need to cut the potatoes into pieces, mix them with some charcoal ash, and bury one piece in the soil every fifteen centimeters!" Mr. Yuan said.
"That's it!" Xiao Yi felt that he really did the right thing by saving Mr. Yuan!
"Of course, if you wait until it sprouts, you can plant it!" Mr. Yuan added!
"Okay!" Xiao Yi responded, and then immediately cut the potatoes in half, mixed them with charcoal ash, and buried them in ordinary soil.
"It seems a bit crowded!" Xiao Yi muttered, looking at the wooden basin with ordinary soil.
"Didi!"
The beep on the island monument sounded and Xiao Yi walked in.
"[Soil]*2 Transaction None."
"I don't have any seeds here, and it's not convenient for me to grow things with my children. I'll give them to you!"
This is a message from Jiang Yuntian!
Xiao Yi's eyes brightened slightly. He was talking about soil just now, but he didn't expect Jiang Yuntian to send it over.
By agreeing to the deal, Xiao Yi gained two more units of soil.
But now there are not enough containers to hold soil.
Ordinary small wooden pots do not require a manufacturing diagram, but they cannot be used to grow many things.
Large wooden basins and flower beds require manufacturing drawings!
"I hope we can find a container as soon as possible and transplant the potatoes there after they sprout." Xiao Yi muttered.
After planting the potatoes, Xiao Yi walked back to the apartment and sat on the sofa, feeling comfortable!
But looking at the TV that couldn't be turned on, I was still thinking about how to get a generator!
Gas seems very far away, so let’s consider electricity first!
It was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and the system showed that the degree of seawater erosion outside had reached 66.66%.
"Waiting makes people anxious!" Xiao Yi said helplessly.
There are still many people on the public channel at this time.
“I feel like I’m going to be drowned!”
"Don't get excited. According to my calculations, the seawater is still flooding at the same speed as before. By early this morning, it will be at most one square meter. Even if you don't catch a single cornerstone, it won't be completely submerged. Don't worry!"
"No, I feel like I will fall into the sea if I don't hold on to the island monument. There's no way I can get supplies!"
"Then just wait until you get used to it before fishing. No one can help you with this!"
