Minecraft: Global Infinite Survival

Chapter 33: Chapter 33: The Way to Make Money



Hu Tiancheng saw Lin Fan's stunned expression and couldn't help but chuckle.

"How's business going? I heard it's doing pretty well," Hu Tiancheng casually struck up a conversation.

"It's alright," Lin Fan responded coldly.

He was never much of a talker, and given his past minor conflicts with Hu Tiancheng, his attitude was naturally indifferent.

But Hu Tiancheng didn't seem to mind. He remained standing near the glass bottle shop, showing no intention of leaving.

The two stood in an awkward silence for a moment—until another customer arrived.

"One glass bottle, right? 500 gold?" The new customer carefully counted his coins, then pulled out 500 gold from his bag and handed it to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan retrieved a glass bottle from his inventory and handed it over.

Surprisingly, the store had only just opened, and he had already sold two bottles.

In just a short while, he had made 1,000 gold.

This was so much faster than grinding mobs for money. No more exhausting battles just to scrape together some gold!

Clearly, the real path to wealth lay in business.

Lin Fan's strategy was paying off—500 gold per glass bottle might be steep for the average person, but for some people, it was nothing.

After all, this Minecraft world had a population of at least 900 million. Among such a vast population, there were bound to be some exceptional individuals.

For now, Lin Fan only needed to sell his glass bottles to the elite few among them.

Hu Tiancheng still lingered around, but Lin Fan stopped paying attention to him. He was too busy with the booming business.

To prepare for incoming customers, Lin Fan crafted four storage chests, combining them into two large chests and placing them inside the shop.

He had already smelted 15 stacks of glass, which he quickly crafted into glass bottles and stored inside the chests.

As long as the bottles weren't filled with water, they could be stacked, making storage highly efficient.

Now, there were 960 glass bottles in the chests—more than enough to last the next few days.

Store No. 1 remained as busy as ever, and while the glass bottle shop didn't have the same long lines, it was far from empty.

Every now and then, someone would walk in and buy a bottle.

By midday, Lin Fan had sold 40 glass bottles, earning 20,000 gold in just a few hours.

Compared to Store No. 1, this was way more profitable.

To earn 20,000 gold from selling stone swords and furnaces, it would take nearly a month! But the glass bottle shop had achieved that in just half a day.

Lin Fan hadn't expected to make so much money on the very first day of business.

20,000 gold! If he had to grind mobs for that, it would take forever!

Meanwhile, as more glass bottles were sold, discussions about them exploded on the forums.

"Has anyone bought a glass bottle yet? I heard they don't lose durability—is that true?"

"Yeah, any updates, guys? Can we really drink infinitely from them?"

"No need to guess—I've already bought one. It's true! Unlimited water, no durability loss, and each sip restores 3 thirst points."

"I'm already drinking from mine! Feels like all the effort I put into grinding finally paid off."

"I was constantly on the verge of dehydration before, but now I can finally drink to my heart's content. I'm so relieved I could cry."

"Say what you will—I already bought one. I fully support Lin Fan this time. He solved a huge problem for us."

"Seriously? People are actually paying 500 gold for a glass bottle? Isn't that way too expensive?"

"The only ones complaining about the price are those who don't have the gold. If you don't want to survive, then don't buy one. I already did!"

"Sounds like someone's feeling sour. Haha, too funny!"

"Heh, not interested."

As more people purchased glass bottles and confirmed their usefulness, many others started considering buying one for themselves.

"No choice—I'll grind mobs tonight and try to buy a glass bottle in a few days."

"+1. Glass bottles are a necessity. No excuses—I'm grinding all night! There's no way I won't be able to afford one."

Unlike last night's complaints, most people today were rallying to buy a glass bottle.

Seeing others drinking freely made them envious.

Once Lin Fan confirmed that the glass bottle shop was running smoothly, he handed over operations to Lilian.

Meanwhile, his wheat and potatoes had fully matured in the fields. Lin Fan harvested everything, then replanted wheat seeds.

Originally, he had 15 potatoes, but after harvesting, they had doubled to 30.

He replanted half and kept the rest as food for the next few days.

As for wheat, he gathered 40 units, along with over a stack of wheat seeds. He replanted the seeds and used the wheat to bake 13 loaves of bread, giving all of them to Lilian.

Compared to potatoes, the girl really liked bread.

Honestly, if not for her, Lin Fan wouldn't have bothered growing wheat at all—it was far more resource-intensive than potatoes.

Oh well, a personal maid deserved some pampering.

After replanting everything, Lin Fan closed the trapdoor and returned home, where Chris and Lilian were busy working.

He decided it was time for a mining trip.

Iron and redstone were running low, and he needed a lot more redstone to build an automated farm.

Currently, he only had 13 redstone dust—but a two-tiered farm would require at least a full stack.

Equipped with his iron pickaxe, Lin Fan headed down the mineshaft.

The artificial tunnel he dug last time had already been mostly cleared, so instead of returning there, he sealed the entrance with cobblestone and dug forward into unexplored terrain.

As he mined, he found plenty of coal, along with some iron and redstone, though not as much as he hoped.

Then—unexpectedly—he hit an opening.

Holding up his torch for light, he jumped down to investigate.

Mining was always full of surprises.

He placed torches around to illuminate the dim cavern.

The space was narrow, with moss-covered stone steps and cracks along the walls, giving it an ancient look.

In the distance, he could hear the occasional growl of zombies.

As Lin Fan moved forward, he soon spotted an iron-barred doorway leading into a sealed chamber.

At that moment, he instantly realized—

He had just stumbled upon a dungeon.
