Everyone's Train Survival Quest: Blessed by Fortune

Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Fertilizer Production Base



[Bathroom Blueprint x1 (One-time use)]

[Can build a 1.5-square-meter bathroom inside the subway car. Required materials: Wooden Planks x15, Parts x20, Iron Sheets x10, Glass x2 (optional)]

The materials required weren't excessive, and 1.5 square meters wasn't too large. However, the water supply was a major issue.

Relying on Tang Yingying's water condenser to provide enough water for bathing was practically a pipe dream.

Zhao Kuo decisively rejected the idea, but Tang Yingying said, "Did you even check the bathroom's properties? Here, take a look."

With that, the girl displayed the bathroom's attributes.

[Bathroom]

[A relatively private space. Equipped with a water tank, it can collect daily water usage at a 30% collection rate. With a filter installed, the collected water can be filtered into relatively clean water, though it's not drinkable. When connected to a power source, the water tank can be automatically heated.]

Huh? These attributes surprised Zhao Kuo.

It could actually collect daily water usage? Zhao Kuo had a water tank blueprint in his inventory.

The collected water wasn't very clean, which was why a filter was needed. It was a shame that the water still wasn't drinkable, but even slightly unclean water could be used for other purposes.

With this in mind, Zhao Kuo nodded.

He built the bathroom at the end of the third car, opting not to use glass. After all, he might actually use it for bathing in the future, and he didn't want Tang Yingying peeking.

Once built, he placed the water tank inside.

Instantly, a small bathroom appeared on the subway.

The bathroom wasn't large, just enough for one person. It would be cramped if both of them tried to enter at the same time. The bathroom thoughtfully included a showerhead connected to the water tank, though the tank was currently empty.

"Ah, I really want to take a shower!" Tang Yingying said.

Zhao Kuo rolled his eyes. "Didn't you shower in the suite yesterday?"

"You don't understand. Girls need to shower often. It's a pity there's no shower gel or anything here…" Tang Yingying lamented her inability to shower.

Zhao Kuo wasn't too bothered. With the weather outside, he could go a week without showering and be fine.

Besides, they'd reach the next station in two and a half days. If nothing went wrong, there should be a place to stay, so there was no rush.

What Zhao Kuo valued more was the bathroom's water collection function. Whether the water was clean or not, water resources were extremely important.

After inspecting the bathroom, Zhao Kuo picked up the toilet blueprint.

[Toilet Blueprint (One-time use)]

[Can build a 1-square-meter toilet inside the subway car. Required materials: Wooden Planks x10, Parts x15, Iron Sheets x5, Glass x1 (optional)]

[Toilet]

[When nature calls, you can't ignore it! Relieving yourself anywhere is shameful!]

[The toilet can collect waste from users and process it into low-quality fertilizer.]

The toilet could actually produce fertilizer! Zhao Kuo was shocked. Even if it was low-quality fertilizer, it was still incredibly valuable.

He had four one-square-meter rice fields, and fertilizer could increase their yield and growth speed!

Without hesitation, Zhao Kuo built the toilet next to the bathroom, then turned and asked, "Tang Yingying, do you need to use the toilet?"

Tang Yingying took a step back, looking wary. "What? I don't feel the need right now."

"Oh, okay… This toilet is pretty good, just a bit basic," Zhao Kuo said with some regret, pushing open the toilet door.

Since it hadn't been used yet, it was old but clean. It was a traditional squat toilet with a container underneath. He wasn't sure how strong the smell would be during use.

However, their living area was in the first car, separated by an entire car from the toilet, so the smell shouldn't reach them.

The only downside was the lack of a stove, so it might be a bit chilly for certain parts.

Speaking of fertilizer, Zhao Kuo remembered he had obtained four bags of fertilizer from the chest earlier.

He retrieved the fertilizer from his inventory and went to the second car.

By now, the second car was mostly occupied by rice fields, with only a small path left for walking.

While others were struggling to survive in the subway world, Zhao Kuo was farming. The only regret was that Tang Yingying wasn't a stunning beauty—if she were the campus belle, it would've been even better…

With a sense of regret, Zhao Kuo began fertilizing the rice fields.

[Ding! After being nourished by primary fertilizer, the daily yield of a one-square-meter rice field has increased by 20%, and the growth speed has increased by 10%.]

[Ding! After being nourished by primary fertilizer, the daily yield of a one-square-meter rice field has increased by 20%, and the growth speed has increased by 10%.]

[Ding! After being nourished by primary fertilizer, the daily yield of a one-square-meter rice field has increased by 20%, and the growth speed has increased by 10%.]

[Ding! After being nourished by primary fertilizer, the daily yield of a one-square-meter rice field has increased by 20%, and the growth speed has increased by 10%.]

After four notifications, Zhao Kuo looked at the rice fields, now sprouting small seedlings, and nodded with satisfaction.

"How about we make pork chop rice later?" Tang Yingying suggested.

Zhao Kuo glanced at her. "You can cook?"

"Don't underestimate me! We don't have cooking oil, but the pork chops have enough fat. Watch me show you my skills!"

Without waiting for Zhao Kuo's response, Tang Yingying excitedly returned to the first car.

Before leaving Lushan Station, Zhao Kuo had spent a fair number of subway coins on daily necessities.

This included pots, pans, bowls, and some seasonings. Unfortunately, Lushan Station didn't sell cooking oil, but Zhao Kuo was still quite satisfied with being able to buy salt and various spices.

Salt was an essential element for the human body. Prolonged salt deficiency would weaken even a professional.

Many people had bought salt at the station, and it wasn't too expensive.

At times, the subway world showed a certain level of humanity.

Soon, the aroma spread through the subway car. Tang Yingying sat in front of the stove, stir-frying cubed pork chops over high heat. After rendering out the fat, she set the pork chops aside and added the expensive small greens.

These two small greens had cost Zhao Kuo 1 subway coin.

Watching Tang Yingying's skilled stir-frying, Zhao Kuo nodded with satisfaction.

Since entering the subway world, he had never felt as relaxed as he did now.

Traveling alone was ultimately lonely. Humans were social creatures, which was why Zhao Kuo had agreed to team up with Tang Yingying.

Soon, Tang Yingying finished cooking.

A plate of pan-fried pork chops and two small greens were carefully placed on top of two bowls of rice, completing two fragrant pork chop and greens rice bowls.

Thanks to the addition of salt and spices, the aroma alone was enough to whet one's appetite.

The two used a small wooden table they had made and sat on stools.

"Let's eat!" Tang Yingying said cheerfully, popping a piece of meat into her mouth.
