Chapter 95: Forced Buying and strong selling
The aunts are all envious, they are all living well now, and they are not jealous of the old man Zeng and his grandson.
"The meals we cook can only fill our stomachs. Others are different. They have learned to be a chef, but unfortunately, I only got a tailored card at the beginning."
Everyone thought that they couldn't cook without learning a chef card, but later they realized that they can cook by themselves.
Cooking is only for those who have learned the chef card.
The food cooked can replenish physical strength, and those who have not learned can only simply fill their stomachs.
Among them, the aunt in blue bumped the short-haired aunt next to her with her arm and muttered: "Hey, if I say you are alone, you might as well live together with old man Zeng. We have more than a hundred more now. Are you going to be alone all the time?"
The short-haired aunt heard what her friend said, and quickly patted her, "What are you talking about, he is much older than me, and he still lives with a partner."
She is only in her early 40s now, still belongs to the prime of life, and her old age has not yet arrived.
"What's the matter, you said he is quite capable, and he must have saved a lot of money..."
Before she finished speaking, the short-haired aunt waved her hand and left.
Now even in her old age, she can go out to collect food to support herself. Find someone to live with.
The world has long since changed.
Xuantian City is surrounded by mountains, except for the mountains, there are forests.
This time, before the end of autumn, Lu Jiu and the others set off to visit a farther area, and the destination was Jinghe District.
At least it's more familiar there.
It was much easier to embark on the journey again than last time, but it was too cold, Lu Jiu sat in the back seat of Shen Jufeng and kept hugging the small heater.
Shen Jufeng didn't say it was cold, Zhuang Yun was still wearing the leather gloves An An made for him, which were made from the skin obtained from fighting deer wild monsters before.
Lu Jiu poked her head slightly, and suddenly felt the cold wind coming towards her, "Shen Jufeng, you are not cold, we are riding fast, and I can feel the wind force when I sit behind you."
"Yes, you can wear leather gloves to keep out the wind."
Zhuang Yun followed suit, wishing he could wear another hat and mask.
Shen Jufeng looked indifferent, "It's okay, my clothes are warm, and it's not too cold."
Although they are autumn clothes, the tailor still makes clothes with warm properties.
It was the first time for him to wear warm clothes.
The place covered by the clothes continuously emitted heat, even the skin exposed to the air could warm up.
Lu Jiu heard him say that the clothes were warm, so she reached out and touched the hem of the clothes. Although it was a windbreaker, it was much better than the long johns and long johns she wore before, at least not too bulky.
"When did you buy it? I'll buy a few more when I go back."
I was complaining in my heart, the tailor had a new product, but I, the city lord, couldn't buy it, and the deputy lord of the city was one step ahead of her.
Shen Jufeng seemed to know what she was thinking, "It just came out today, so I bought this one."
Lu Jiu turned to look at Zhuang Yun, "I just sent an email to An An and asked her to buy a few pieces first. It's cold."
Zhuang Yun nodded and then sent an email to his daughter.
Nearly three months into autumn, the temperature is getting lower and lower.
Lu Jiu tried to exhale, and then it turned into fog. This is not the early cool autumn.
It feels like entering winter.
The single-person tents brought out this time are all equipped with thermal properties.
This trip was not as cautious as the last time, and the bicycle was still faster than the wooden bicycle before.
The three of them rested on the road for one night and arrived in Jinghe District early the next morning.
Before that, they happened to walk to Flood Dragon City, and Lu Jiu still remembered that he bought cold cakes here last time.
It was only after arriving that I realized that it was very quiet here, with only a few people walking together, not even many people collecting food in the nearby fields.
The three collected their bicycles and entered the city, which was no better than outside the city.
Only a few of the bustling stalls in the past were still open.
Lu Jiu saw that the food and utensils that were placed in these stalls were not the usual food and utensils.
They were all rewarded for killing wild monsters. Among them were slightly yellowed hairs. I don't know what quality wild monsters were on.
Lu Jiu turned to his teammates and said, "Let's go to each stall separately."
After speaking, she walked to one of the stalls and saw that the items on display were all ordinary goods, even meat.
The stall owner is a strong and strong man, so he is not easy to mess with.
Lu Jiu: "Did you play this all by yourself?"
The stall owner folded his arms and nodded, "Yes, I am a professional shield guard player."
I don't know if this sentence is to show off or a warning.
Lu Jiu looked at it once and was interested in the mutton for sale. She pointed to the meat on display and asked, "What level of wild monster is this?"
"Eating not only increases the total attribute value but also warms the body."
Lu Jiu smiled, at present, if you want to increase the total attribute value, you have to be a boss-level wild monster, and the stall owner is still bragging like this.
"How much of this mutton do you have and how do you sell it?"
"I have 300 kilograms of this meat, 65 copper coins per catty. If you buy 100 kilograms, I will count 55 copper coins per catty."
Lu Jiu was shocked when she heard the price.
A kilogram of meat from iron-level wild monsters is only 25 copper coins at most, because meat is not very valuable in Xuantian City, and the most important thing is the materials dropped when killing wild monsters.
Seeing Lu Jiu's expression, the big man thought that she thought it was too expensive and she didn't want to buy it, so his face turned pale, "Although you are from outside the city, the prices of most city-states in Jinghe District are not bad."
Lu Jiuxin said, comparing with my city-state Much worse.
"It's too expensive, let me have a look again." If she wasn't curious about what kind of meat it was, she wouldn't bother to ask.
And they haven't encountered brown iron-level goat wild monsters, and they are ordinary-level monsters.
Just as Lu Jiu was about to leave, the stall owner's face darkened.
"You asked here, but you didn't buy anything. Are you kidding me, or come to Dragon Flood City to investigate the situation."
Lu Jiu was stunned for a while, and he asked normally and didn't buy if he was not satisfied.
"This meat is too expensive, and I can't afford it, so I don't buy it." Even if she knew it was a fault, she endured it for a while.
The stall owner looked at Lu Jiu's whole body with unscrupulous eyes, no matter what he looked like, he didn't look like he had no money, "Hey, you're still bluffing me, saying that you don't have money because you wear such good clothes, thinking I'm easy to fool." Lu Jiu
entered Frowning, it seems that this is going to kill her, "Longjiao City is still prosperous and forced to buy and sell?"
The big man sneered, "Don't talk to me about anything else, since you asked me today, you have to buy it. , or it won't end well, little sister."
He puffed up his muscles as he spoke as if he was about to start a fight.
Lu Jiu just smiled contemptuously, "This is in the city, fighting is not allowed in the city-state, did you forget?"
Unexpectedly, the big man laughed out loud, attracting the attention of others, including Shen Jufeng and Zhuang Yun.
He scolded in a low voice: "It is true that fighting is not allowed in the city, but I am a member of the city owner's team, so there is no such restriction. Now I suspect that you are deliberately provoking trouble in Dragon Flood City, so there is every reason to take you down!"
Lu Jiu raised his eyebrows lightly, It turned out that she was helping the city master. She remembered that the city master of Longjiao City was called He Ange. He was indeed such a frivolous and unfounded person, and the order in the city-state was nothing more than that.
