Without a second thought, he immediately wanted to use a stone (blue) to make a stone pick. He planned to get more stones (green) today. After all, that was the black bears’ cave. Once the novice protection period was over, he could not go there again until he could beat the black bears.

At this moment, Li Wenxi sent him a message, “How did you finish collecting so quickly? Are you surrounded by green-grade trees?”

Xu Xin looked out of the window. At least, the area around the lake was covered in a thick green. The trees he had cut in the past two days were probably not even a fraction of the whole forest.

“That’s right, I don’t lack wood,” He replied.

“Do you have a lot of food too?” The other party asked again.

“What do you want to ask?” Xu Xin didn’t rush to answer, but asked a question instead.

Xu Xin was shocked when he received a voice call.

It could even be used to voice call?

After thinking for a while, he still picked up the call.

A pleasant girl’s voice came from the screen, “Hello? Hello? Can you hear me?”

The girl’s energetic voice made Xu Xin a lot more energetic. He replied, “Yes, I can hear you. You want to work with me, right?”

“Wow, your voice sounds so nice!” The girl’s praise from the other side made Xu Xin want to laugh. He remembered that when he first chatted with Li Wenxi, she had been very cold and aloof.

“That’s right. I want to work with you. So, do you have a lot of food?” Li Wenxi continued to ask.

“It’s enough for me,” Xu Xin didn’t tell her that there were many wild fruit trees in the forest. He was also by the lake, where there were many fish and shrimp. There were also many apple trees in the forest. He was in no lack of food at all. It wouldn’t even be a problem to feed a group of people.

“That’s good. To tell you the truth, I have a lot of green-grade and above stones and ores here, but the trees are all white-grade. It looks like you don’t have many stones and ores where you’re at. How about this, how about we exchange resources? I’ll use stones to exchange for your wood!” The girl sounded excited.

“Then why are you asking me how much food I have?”

“I’m just afraid that you’ll cheat me of my food. I only have enough for myself, I can’t afford to feed you,” The girl said her true thoughts carefreely, “Be frank, do you want to cooperate?”

This girl… Xu Xin thought back to the time when she had given him a blue-grade stone in advance, and shook his head, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll trick you?”

“What’s in it for you to trick me? I’ve indeed gotten my hands on the items. Besides, with the Trading Platform, you can’t lie to me. At most, I’ll just end the transaction and find someone else to trade with.”

What she said made sense, though unpleasant to hear! However, Xu Xin didn’t mind. He quite liked Li Wenxi’s personality. She was straightforward and not shy at all.

So, he said, “I’m fine with it. I’m just afraid that you don’t have enough stones. ”

“You must be joking, I’m right next to a mine … You’re trying to get information out of me!”

“Even if I knew you were beside a mine, I wouldn’t be able to fly over,” Xu Xin shook his head. This girl was really interesting. However, knowing that she was beside a mine, Xu Xin was relieved.

“You’re right …” Li Wenxi scratched her head and blushed. She suddenly thought of something and said, “Hey, I still don’t know your name.”

Xu Xin then let her see his name.

“Xu Xin, that’s a good name. How old are you?”

“I just graduated from university.”

“Ah, I’m only a second-year student, which means you’re older than me. Um, Xu Xin, do you have any wood now? I want more,” Li Wenxi got comfortable with him real quick.

“I just gave you all the wood I had, you …”

“Oh, wait a minute!” Li Wenxi suddenly interrupted Xu Xin’s words and ended the call. Just as Xu Xin was wondering what she was up to, the system beeped.

[Li Wenxi has requested a video call. Do you accept?]

They could even video call?

This girl was really bold. To think she would directly video call someone she had just started chatting with. However, he could understand that it felt more real to talk about cooperation face-to-face. Besides, he could not do anything to the other party except look at her.

He accepted the video call request.

The girl’s image suddenly appeared on the screen. She had a delicate face, round eyes, thin lips, and short hair that reached her chin, which made her look full of energy.

The other party’s eyes also lit up when she saw him, “You’re quite handsome!”

That was a must. “You’re not bad yourself,” Xu Xin laughed.

“I look good even without makeup!” The little beauty puffed her chest and was indeed quite cute. It was just that her chest… Was only slightly bigger than Xu Xin ‘s.

“Amazing, amazing.”

“Hey, I just wanted to show you… Why is your tree house so big?!” Li Wenxi’s almond-shaped eyes widened as she looked behind Xu Xin. The wide and empty space shocked her.

Seeing her expression, Xu Ke smiled and said, “I don’t know either. It was this big when it grew. Your side feels a little small?”

“I…” Li Wenxi was dejected. She had turned on the video call to show Xu Xin her treehouse, so that he would know her strength and the negotiations would be easier. According to the information she had obtained from the Chat Room, everyone only had a low treehouse that was only about 20 square meters in size!

“My… My treehouse has two floors!” Li Wenxi didn’t seem to be convinced and continued to argue.

“Hmm, not bad.”

“Hehe, right?”

“But mine has three floors.”

“Mmm… Huh?”

Seeing Li Wenxi’s expression, Xu Xin couldn’t help but laugh out loud. When he saw her face gradually turning red in the video, he held back his laughter and asked, “By the way, what did you want to show me just now?”

“I…” It would have been fine if he had not asked, but the moment he did, Li Wenxi’s expression became slightly flustered. She looked around and picked up an ore beside her for him to see, “I wanted to show you this!”

Even though they were separated by a screen, Xu Xin could still see the blue light emitted by the ore.

[Iron Ore (blue): When smelting iron ore, you only need to add one piece to produce iron (blue), affordable and easy to use!]

“You even have blue-grade iron ore?” Xu Xin’s eyes also lit up. Based on what the effects of stone (blue) were, he could roughly deduce what iron (blue) was for. This was a rare item!

“That’s right. I told you not to worry about stone and ore materials. No, wait, why is your treehouse so big?” Li Wenxi couldn’t help but ask enviously as she looked at Xu Xin’s extremely spacious room.

There was no harm in telling her a little.

“This is a purple-grade treehouse,” Xu Xin laughed.

“Purple… Purple-grade? So, there’s purple above blue…” Li Wenxi mumbled to herself. She then looked at him with a hint of envy in her eyes, “You’re too lucky. I thought that my luck was good enough, but it seems that I can’t compare to you.”

She didn’t think of any other possibilities, nor did she think that the change in the treehouse was caused by the fertility of the soil. After all, other than the words “remember to find fertile soil” on the treehouse seed introduction, she knew nothing else. It wasn’t as if she could tell which patch of soil was more fertile.
