Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

```

It was evident that everyone in the chat channel was troubled by the issue of food.

They didn't know how to acquire food.

In fact, during the newbie protection period,

there were some low-level wild monsters around everyone's camp, which were the food sources in the early stages.

Because they formed a family team, four of them had combat power.

If they fought together, dealing with Level 1 or 2 wild monsters wouldn't be a problem.

But because they were too scared or had poor adaptability, they didn't dare to venture far from the snowy area, let alone fight those wild monsters.

At this moment, the chat channel suddenly became chaotic.

"Look quickly, Fang Long from the Three Heroes Association is selling food again!"

"100g of Beast Meat, exchange for 100 pieces of Wood or 50 pieces of Stone, priority to Weapons and Equipment, anyone with extra materials, hurry and exchange!"

"Geez… that's too expensive, all my resources combined aren't even that much."

"Bro, do you even understand? Do you know how precious food is now? Are those resources more valuable than your life?"

"Exactly, if you don't buy it, others will!"

"Don't snatch it from me! I'm fucking starving!"

...

Watching the chat channel, Cao Xing was deep in thought.

The food Fang Long was auctioning was a piece of Wild Boar Meat, and although his price was outrageous, it was snatched up in less than three seconds.

Cao Xing thought to himself, "100g of Beast Meat is sold at such a high price, this is equivalent to emptying out a camp's resources."

"And those who traded their supplies, while they could restore a bit of Satiety, would be miserable afterward."

"They might not be able to develop due to a lack of resources."

"Even if they could develop, they would probably be several days behind in progress. Once the newbie protection period ends, it's going to be game over."

Cao Xing checked the records.

It seemed like this was Fang Long's 17th time selling food.

One could imagine how many resources he had gathered through these trades.

Cao Xing continued thinking, "The size of a Wild Boar is about the same as a Snow Wolf, meaning he probably doesn't have much meat left."

Thinking of this, Cao Xing also posted a trading message on the market.

Auction Items: Fresh Bear Meat (Blue) *100g, first consumption, Power +2, Constitution +2

Required Items: Wood *10, Stone *5, Iron *1, Mithril and Elemental Crystal, etc., are in high demand!

Auction Person: Cao Xing

Seller's Note: Bear meat that can increase Hunger Level and Attributes, with plenty in stock, accepting all kinds of materials, blueprints, skill books, and equipment.

Then, Cao Xing started setting prices for various items.

1 Elemental Crystal = 1 piece of Bear Meat.

1 Mithril = 1 piece of Bear Meat.

Equipment Blueprint = 5 to 10 pieces of Bear Meat.

Skill Book = 5 to 10 pieces of Bear Meat.

Cao Xing recorded each item, even adding bullets and having clear prices for them.

At this moment, in the regional channel, many survivors who had already established a Market suddenly noticed the Bear Meat being auctioned.

They rubbed their eyes in disbelief.

Huang Qiufeng: "Damn! Blue Grade Bear Meat, and it can increase attributes!"

"Brothers, quickly check the market, someone is selling Bear Meat that adds attributes!"

Hearing this news, many survivors were somewhat dazed.

"What? Meat that adds attributes, why have I never seen such a thing?"

They opened the Market immediately, and were shocked by the auction information on it.

"Oh my heavens! It's real!"

"This price is also so cheap, 10 pieces of Wood can exchange for 100g of Bear Meat, even 1 Elemental Crystal can exchange for a whole piece of Bear Meat!"

"Oh, my God? Is this fake? Is this guy doing charity?"

These survivors were filled with disbelief.

After all, they all knew how terrifyingly priced food was at the moment.

And this was Bear Meat that added attributes!

However, they soon realized that it was indeed real.

A survivor named Yang Lin exclaimed excitedly, "Damn! I traded for it! I traded for it!"

"I exchanged 50 pieces of Stone for a whole piece of Bear Meat, enough for my whole family to enhance their attributes!"

"What?"

When the first survivor successfully traded,

other survivors immediately began trading frantically.

"Damn! Damn! I also succeeded in trading, 10 pieces of Iron can get a whole piece of Bear Meat, this is awesome!"

"Elemental Crystal, does anyone have an Elemental Crystal, you can exchange a whole piece of Bear Meat for just one, hurry!"

"I exchanged a skill book for 5 pieces of Bear Meat, that's incredible!"

...

At this moment, the regional channel was in complete frenzy.

Survivors who got the Bear Meat were thrilled.

They all knew how profitable it was to trade supplies for Bear Meat.

Some even posted information about the Bear Meat in the World Channel, making survivors outside District 174 envious.

Ed Stafford: "Oh my God, it's Bear Meat, I've never fought a bear in my life."

Qiu Weichao: "So many added attributes, this is a boon for the Warrior profession."

Shiichiro Okubo: "Baka! Why am I not in 174 District, and why hasn't anyone in 11451 District discovered such Bear Meat?"

And Cao Xing, too, was overwhelmed by the flurry of trading messages.

Trade Successful: You received Iron *10, you lost Fresh Bear Meat (Blue) *1

Trade Successful, you received Stone *5, you lost Fresh Bear Meat (Blue) *100g

Trade Successful, you received Soldier Standard Longsword Blueprint (Green) *1, you lost Fresh Bear Meat (Blue) *5

...

Cao Xing's set prices were very reasonable, even if you only had a small amount of supplies, you could trade with him.

In no time, practically all survivors in District 174 got the message.

After all, this kind of item that could enhance attributes, the sooner you consumed it, the safer you would be in this world.

Cao Xing watched as the resources in his territory surged!

Before long,

he obtained 5400 pieces of Wood, 3200 pieces of Stone, 342 pieces of Iron, 43 Basic Level Elemental Crystals, an additional green blueprint, and 20 pieces of Mithril!

These resources would require 12 Polar People to mine with full effort for nearly half a month, and still might not gather that much.

And he had only spent a total of 215 pieces of Bear Meat so far.

And Cao Xing's backpack still had a whopping 1000 pieces of Bear Meat left!

At this moment, Cao Xing couldn't help but swallow, "I've hit the jackpot, seriously hit the jackpot!"

Seeing the materials in his backpack, Cao Xing decided to first use them to enhance his strength.

First upgrade the Bonfire, then also upgrade the Lord's Hut.

After that, he would upgrade the Polar People Hut and recruit more Polar People to work.

Following that, Cao Xing could even construct powerful buildings like the Basic Level Elemental Arrow Tower, dramatically boosting the defense capabilities of the territory.

So, Cao Xing interrupted the market trading and planned to call all the Polar People back to prepare for building upgrades.

Upon hearing Cao Xing's call, those Polar People put down their work and walked towards the camp.
