"It's all right; I will be leaving for a while soon," said Yun Yi. "You now know the security code for this residence, so when the time comes, you can bring more people to handle things. Although it is still summer, winter will inevitably arrive, and it's always wise to prepare early."
"You can weave as many clothes as your abilities allow. This way, you can store them for emergencies or trade them for other goods. After all, clothing doesn't wear out easily. This will also provide suitable work for women from various places."
Zhao An nodded respectfully, acknowledging Yun Yi's guidance.
"Oh, there's one more thing I must remind you about," Yun Yi continued.
Faced with this prompt, Zhao An humbly replied, "Please give your instructions, Xian Zhang Da Ren."
Yun Yi gestured towards the ground and explained, "I have set up a planting area in this underground space. Although we just sowed the seeds last night, they should fully grow in about three or four days. At that time, please ensure someone is responsible for the harvesting task. Also, don't forget that the crop planting area in the villa needs to be managed as well."
Zhao An solemnly responded, "Understood; I will keep that in mind."
Yun Yi then suggested, "Now, let's go and take a look at it in person."
Zhao An readily agreed. Following Yun Yi's lead, they made their way to an area near the entrance where there was a staircase leading downwards.
Yun Yi pointed to the staircase and introduced it, "This is the way to the underground farm."
With that, he began to guide Zhao An slowly down the stairs. However, the environment here was not dark at all.
The reason was that the walls on both sides were embedded with numerous nuclear-powered torches, which continuously emitted dazzling light, filling the entire corridor with brightness.
Zhao An observed these special torches on the walls, having long heard of their extraordinary nature. Deep within, he had yearned for them for quite some time. Finally, he took a deep breath and cautiously asked Yun Yi, "Esteemed Sir, may I be so fortunate as to request a few of these torches? Would that be appropriate?"
Mentioning his desire to obtain a Nuclear Torch, Yun Yi pondered for a moment before grasping the significance of the question. In ancient times, there was no concept of modern electric lights; to illuminate their surroundings at night, people had to rely on candles. However, the light from candles was exceedingly dim. When compared to a Nuclear Torch, they resembled tiny fireflies attempting to compete with the moon's brilliance—clearly unable to match it.
For example, in a room exceeding two thousand square meters, placing a single Nuclear Torch inside would instantly brighten the space as if it were daytime. In contrast, even using dozens of candles would not achieve the same level of illumination. Moreover, compared to candles, this Nuclear Torch emitted strong light without any real flame present, making it extremely stable. Even if flammable materials were brought close, they would not ignite, thus ensuring far greater safety than traditional candles.
Yun Yi nodded in agreement and asked, "How many torches do you actually need?"
Zhao An smiled slightly and looked at Yun Yi with hope. "Great Immortal Sir, I naturally wish for as many as possible; however, the specific number is up to your discretion."
Regarding Zhao An's somewhat clever request, Yun Yi merely curled his lips slightly. He thought to himself that the number of Nuclear Torches and wood stock in this place was not particularly abundant. Although the materials needed to create them were relatively simple—a piece of coal and a stick could be combined to make four Nuclear Torches—what he lacked at present was not coal but rather the quantity of sticks.
This was also the purpose of their journey to Taihang Mountain: to seek out trees to increase their supply of raw materials. Looking at the dwindling logs in their pack,
Yun Yi decided to be generous and crafted some additional Nuclear Torches to gift to Zhao An.
One unit of raw wood could be combined with four wooden planks, and every two planks could be further split into four wooden sticks. With the addition of coal, this process would yield eight Nuclear Torches. Moreover, the crafting did not require any specific platform; it could be done directly through the basic item crafting interface.
Thus, Yun Yi pulled out ten pieces of raw wood from his backpack and, using the available Coal resources, quickly completed the production of eighty Nuclear Torches. He then casually tossed them onto the ground and said, "This is all I can provide for now—eighty Nuclear Torches. For the time being, this will have to do."
Zhao An looked at the sudden pile of torches with a puzzled expression and muttered to himself, "Nuclear Torches?" He seemed confused about why they were referred to as nuclear and found it hard to understand.
Noticing his confusion, Yun Yi smiled and explained, "You can think of it as a special energy source that provides a long-lasting light."
Zhao An's curiosity was piqued further as he asked, "Like an everlasting spring of water?"
Yun Yi nodded in approval. "Exactly."
Upon hearing this description, Zhao An couldn't help but take a gentle breath in surprise.
