Soon, with the Association members hustling, a huge volume of radiation-tainted ingredients was collected and sent to Yun Luohe in an unbroken stream.All kinds of meats, vegetables—there were even irradiated eggs...By night, Yun Luohe’s backpack was almost entirely stuffed with irradiated ingredients, filling more than a dozen slots to the brim.@Infinite Good Reads, all at Jinjiang Literature CityLoose piles of irradiated materials were packed by her into a dozen-odd supply crates of various sizes.She planned to stay up tonight and turn it all into treasure.Her Trash Bin hadn’t stopped running since she returned in the morning.Yun Luohe was exhausted—after all, tossing things in over and over, then picking up the outputs and slotting them into the backpack, was its own kind of grind.With each flash of light, more high-grade ingredients rolled out.But the process was too monotonous.She started testing new recycling combinations.And got a lot of surprises.For example, putting contaminated rabbit meat together with irradiated maple leaves into the Trash Bin yielded a rabbit cut with a clean maple aroma; not only was the quality higher, it also came with a distinctive flavor.But only rabbit meat and maple leaves had this effect—other meats didn’t work.Yun Luohe tried many more combinations. Most failed, but some hit: bear meat with a pinecone fragrance, wild boar tinted by kale.So fun.In short, throwing out the trash was tiring and delightful at once.Worth it!!!As she kept recycling contaminated ingredients, several achievements lit up.Namely: [Treasure-from-Trash Expert]: perform [Transform into Treasure] 10,000 times in total.Reward: Fruit Seeds ×5[High-Efficiency Recycler]: put 100 pieces of trash in within 30 minutes.Reward: High-Temperature Compost Bin ×1[Trash Savant]: insert 15 different categories of trash at once.Reward: Trash Cart ×1……Even after processing the lot, Yun Luohe now had over a thousand portions of golden-grade ingredients in her backpack, over a thousand portions of high-grade ingredients, and hundreds of special-grade items.So satisfying.But there was a problem—she couldn’t keep all this on her person forever, and each slot in the Portable Preservation Ring could hold no more than ten portions of ingredients.Which meant even the Portable Preservation Ring could only carry a few hundred portions.She needed a way to store the excess, or it would spoil easily.Leaving it in the backpack for now was fine, but the moment she had to land on an island or dive for an expedition, she couldn’t afford for all that to clog her slots.Shuttling back and forth to reshuffle was a pain; better to handle it quickly.She had a few options: turn it into jerky and canned goods to extend the shelf life;or sell it straight away—list it in the Trade Hub or dump it into the Shipping Crate to sell to the system.Keep a portion for her own cooking—there was no way she could burn through this much in the short term.Selling would likely pay more.And the Mad Chef Tournament was about to start.Players across the whole game would need mountains of ingredients.Yun Luohe’s eyes lit up.Just selling ingredients would make her a fortune.Sell part of this haul and she could trade for enough upgrade materials—rubies and Earth Crystals would still be tricky, but the rest should be negotiable.She wasn’t getting sleepy anyway.Yun Luohe decided to push a while longer.@Infinite Good Reads, all at Jinjiang Literature CityFirst, split the work: fill the Portable Preservation Ring to capacity with ingredients; then divide the remaining materials—half into jerky and canned goods for storage,the other half sorted by quality into three tiers, ready to dump on the Trade Hub tomorrow.The Pickling Workshop could make salted fish.She loaded fish cuts into the supply crate by the workshop door; it could push out a batch every few hours.Put one batch in now, harvest in the morning, then load another.In a day she should get two hundred jin of salted fish.She remembered Qin Sisi seemed to have a Canning Workshop.So she sent Qin Sisi two hundred jin of beef, asking her to process it into canned beef.She added thirty jin of high-grade beef as payment.The rest—rabbit, bear, venison, chicken, pork—also needed handling.Yun Luohe threw together a high-heat smokehouse overnight.With a few hundred jin of pine wood and pinecones, she could dehydrate a bit over a hundred jin of meat in one night.Still not enough. Her cellar could hold more, but she’d need to stash the remaining Ice Crystal Stone inside as well—then the meat would keep frozen, buying at least another month.Next, Yun Luohe asked in the group chat: “Who’s got workshops that handle meats?”Bai Yuemian: “I’ve got a Cat Food Workshop—does that count? I can bake cat kibble… rabbit, venison, chicken, beef all work.”Yun Luohe: “Works!”There wasn’t much choice. Cat food should fetch a decent price too, right?Plenty of players seemed to have feline pets; Roubao also loved cat food. Worst case, if it didn’t sell, she’d ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) feed it all to Roubao.Yun Luohe sent Bai Yuemian three hundred jin of meat straight away. “What do you need? I’ll pay you upfront on my end.”Bai Yuemian: “Could I get anti-radiation dishes made by the pro?”“Deal.”Yun Luohe took a screenshot and sent over the current anti-radiation dish list she had on hand.Thrilled, Bai Yuemian had joined the Mutual Aid Association after landing on Strawberry Island with Yun Luohe last time. After joining, she grew fast, got to know several heavy-hitters, and pushed herself even harder.In her mind, the one she admired most was still Yun Luohe.Of course, she also kept thinking about Yun Luohe’s delicious cooking—she’d later bought some high-grade dishes from Rose, but the taste wasn’t quite the same.Bai Yuemian was only the first to respond.“I’ve got a Cured-Meat Workshop!”“I’ve got a Smoking Workshop—I can process any kind of meat.”“I’ve got an Oil-Press Workshop—can render fatty pork.”—With the meats squared away, Yun Luohe let out a long breath.But she couldn’t stop yet—there was still a massive pile of fruits and vegetables to process.Produce spoiled even faster than meat, with a shorter shelf life.She couldn’t deep-freeze it—only chill it for a week.It had to be handled quickly.Fortunately, most members in the management-training sub-group had fruit-processing workshops; if everyone pitched in, they could turn the lot into finished goods.Yun Luohe decided to sort out the fruits first.Fruits could become jam, dried fruit, candied fruit, fruit vinegar…Most importantly, they could be used for brewing.Her Brewery Workshop also needed more batches to level up.This round of ingredient handling also gave Yun Luohe a broader reserve of fresh materials.For the Mad Chef Tournament, she basically had no short-term pressure now.As the Trade Hub merge drew near, Yun Luohe began prepping to sell.She set tiered prices based on rarity and quality.For the golden-grade meats, she marked a higher price.With prices set, Yun Luohe opened the forum and drafted a post.Premium Ingredients Presale — Sales Open After Tomorrow’s Trade Hub Merge“Don’t miss out—high-quality ingredients are the key to placing well in the upcoming Mad Chef Tournament.I’m putting up over a thousand portions of premium ingredients. Prices below; DM if interested.High-Grade Wild Boar: High-Grade Hardwood ×40 / Iron Ore ×10 / Copper Ore ×10High-Grade Vegetables: High-Grade Hardwood ×20 / Iron Ore ×3 / Copper Ore ×3High-Grade Chicken Thigh: High-Grade Hardwood ×30 / Iron Ore ×8 / Copper Ore ×8Golden Venison: High-Grade Hardwood ×100 / Iron Ore ×30 / Copper Ore ×30……After the district merge tomorrow morning, search our district’s ‘Wealthy Lady’s Little Shop’ to purchase.”The post instantly drew a crowd of players’ attention.“Over a thousand portions? Did OP mistype?”“Damn, no way that’s real—selling that many premium ingredients? Can I pre-order? I want twenty portions.”“I want fifty. How do we reserve? Can we order here?”“Why should I believe you? Do you really have that much stock?”“Where’d you even get that many ingredients? Something’s off.”“Yeah, feels off. Not slipping in spoiled meat, are you?”Yun Luohe had already prepared for the forum’s questions and doubts.She was listing a ton, after all.It was normal for people not to buy it.What they didn’t know was that this was only a quarter of her total stock.After posting, she first listed several hundred portions in the Association’s internal exchange group.Let everyone trade directly.Upgrade materials were also accepted, at lower rates than the forum post—consider it an internal perk for Association members.Only then did she calmly attach a few screenshots and photos under the post.The screenshots showed several backpack slot details with system entries describing the ingredients.And the photos were of the ingredients in Yun Luohe’s cellar, workshops, and refrigerators…Every single one proved her stock was fresh, top-grade.“See? All premium ingredients! In our district, Yun Luohe’s a well-known powerhouse—why would she lie?” Players from her own district were first to speak up in the comments.“Isn’t she the high-level chef who shared recipes in that last post? I trust her. I just want the merge to hurry up so I can buy.”“With the Mad Chef Tournament coming, you can’t go wrong hoarding ingredients. I’m just worried it’ll be too crowded by then and I won’t get any. A thousand-plus portions? That’s not much—there are tens of thousands in a single district!”‘Yun Luohe’—that name rings a bell. Didn’t she lead the first-place team in the Desert Event? I think she also topped a scoring cycle.”“Are players in that district all this rich? Just casually tossing out that much for trade. I want to hit the Trade Hub tomorrow and see which district’s materials are the most high-end.”“Tianji Pavilion is giving three intel pieces free to new members tomorrow—come learn our entry rules. Tianji Pavilion—the strongest intel organization. You can trust us.”
