Chapter 70: Contradictions
Now another e-mail from the captain of the team came.
The whole e-mail was hoping that she, the city lord, could solve the food problem.
Although Li Aoting is an early player and has gold coins, thinking that there are still many places where money will be used in the future, she has been reluctant to buy a large number of supplies.
Even most of the supplies needed by the shops were collected by their city owner team.
She didn't know how to collect things like grain.
They were all around the city-state, and there was a lot of grain collected from a few plants. She thought it was useless to buy it.
It is only now that I understand that the city lord himself has no storage capacity, and there is a big crisis if something happens.
Not only her city-state, Yao Bingan and others are also in a similar situation.
Now they are trying their best to appease the panic of the residents, as well as the inner unhappiness of the professional players.
Because of this, the members of their city lord team were not very willing to go out to clear the field but went to collect food outside the city with the players of the life department.
Fear can be spread. Everyone always feels that the world will be more dangerous after the game is updated. It is king to have food to ensure that you are not hungry.
Because of this, even though they knew that the Black Scorpion had been spawned on Pingjing Mountain, they were unwilling to join forces to fight it for the time being.
Wu Yucheng.
Team Xiang saw that there were a few small stalls still selling things, but they were not for food, but some people who knew the skills of blacksmiths and tailor were selling their items.
Although they are members of the city owner's team, they have already told Yao Bing'an that they have to go outside to collect staple food these days, and the clearing of the field is slow.
Cheng Yunshi went out of the city to collect food with her brother and the Xiang team.
It was still early in the morning, and many people had already left the city, most of them were players in the life department.
She was a little worried about the current situation, "Brother, let's go out to clear the fields after collecting enough food."
Cheng Yunhong touched his sister's head, "Well, but you also know that the more this is the better, go out after collecting in these two days Qingye, get more meat for the winter."
After speaking, the team fell into silence, and the Xiang team didn't know what to say to encourage their teammates.
There are not many grain fields around Wuyu City, but thousands of people gather in large quantities at the same time, so there must be no supply. Even in autumn, the grain is refreshed every day.
They went to a location a little farther away, and there was still a field where there were not many people, and a group of people dispersed to collect silently.
Cheng Yunshi was in the same area as her brother, and there was a faint sound of disputes in her ears.
These two days, this kind of dispute was too common. There were only so many supplies, and there were not enough people.
Like Li Aoting, the owner of the city, Yao Bing'an, had never thought of purchasing grain as a reserve before, and now he has no persuasive power to stabilize the residents' emotions.
After collecting for a while, Cheng Yunshi found that the quarrel was getting louder and there were more people, so she couldn't help but look up to see where the quarrel was.
The source of the quarrel was a grain field away from them.
The quarrel was a group of lifestyle players, not young, and the opposite was a professional player.
Cheng Yunshi recognized those people, they were all in the same city-state, and even if they were not members of the same team, they were familiar.
"Brother, they're quarrelling over there, is it okay?" Cheng Yunshi is usually very good at going out to clear the field, but she is a little uneasy about the crowd's quarrel.
Cheng Yunhong straightened her back, seeing that the quarrel over there seemed to be getting more and more intense, "Forget it, it was originally another team, we are just members of the city owner's team."
To meddle in this matter will cause suspicion, and now everyone's emotions are very irritable, and a point trigger can explode.
Cheng Yunshi has no choice but to follow her brother to continue collecting, but still pay attention to the situation over there.
And after a while, I saw a middle-aged woman in the crowd of life players who was very excited and went straight to fight a certain professional player.
She was shocked, how could this be done, the two types of players are not the same starting point at all, even a professional player with no skills can easily defeat a life-type player.
And the professional player that the middle-aged woman wanted to attack raised his hand and put a sword in the opponent's throat.
After a pause for a few seconds, the scene became even more heated.
The middle-aged woman pointed at the professional player and cursed, "What can people like you do with supernatural powers? They bully ordinary people like us!"
Pointing at her with a sword the professional player frowned slightly, obviously, it was the aunt who wanted to strike first, there was nothing wrong with him restraining the other party, "If you don't do it to me, I can't touch you."
The aunt was wronged at this point, and then she burst into tears, "It's not that you are robbing us of food. We, ordinary people, can't go out to fight monsters like you, and we live on this food. You can get a lot of meat from fighting monsters and you rob us of this. Isn't this not giving you a way to survive!"
The more the aunt talked, the louder she cried, as if she had been wronged by the sky, and she was afraid that the other party's sword would cut her throat, so she didn't dare to sit on the ground. The man frowned even deeper, "We also need food like rice, we can't just eat meat, and we used to trade meat with you, the price is fair and no deceit, why can't we collect food now, you all in one breath They are all collected and are not willing to sell them to us, so, of course, we will do it ourselves."
He had tried eating only meat before and then found that there was a warning of unbalanced nutrition on the personal interface as if even if their bodies were modified, some conditions remained the same.
As before, you need balanced nutrition to keep your body running. What the man who pointed at the middle-aged woman with the sword made sense, but the two sides still quarrelled, and no one would give in to the other.
The professional player took back his sword later. In the end, an old man stood up and said, "Okay, this world is just a little bit better. It's not easy for everyone. Let's give in to each other. It's impossible for us to only eat rice all winter. We must have meat, young man. When I go back, the old man will exchange it with you. Meat, whatever food you want."
The man just nodded, "Thank you, sir." As long as he speaks well, he can't be unreasonable and want to do it.
It was still the middle-aged aunt who was not happy, "If you want to change it, you can change it. Although we are not as good as these people at fighting monsters, we can kill a few ordinary people with a few people, and there will be no shortage of meat!"
Quite a few people on the player's side looked ugly.
Killing ordinary wild monsters does have a chance of getting meat, but the chance is not as high as that of brown iron-level wild monsters, and the quantity is a few kilograms. Compare.
The old man's expression was not good, "Don't do things so badly, can you compare the meat you get from hunting monsters with them? The food you got in these days is at least tens of thousands of catties. The shelf life is so long. You have two or three winters."
The old man is telling the truth, the players in the life department get too much staple food, far exceeding the amount they need, it is not realistic to say that it is only used for food it is deliberately hoarding.
The aunt shouted at the top of her throat, "Don't say we can't finish if you can't finish it. There are so many people in our family and we all have to eat. Why don't we get more food!"
