I have a bunch of players on Earth - Chapter 569
Chapter 569: Chapter 598: the daily life of Gondorin (1)
Translator: 549690339
The rental project went very smoothly. Almost on the first day, players who had the ability to rent shops had almost all finalized the local and their own projects. This also caused the opening of the market to be greatly advanced, almost in less than a week, gondorin’s market was announced to be open to the outside world!
In the process of urging the opening of the market, Isabelle did not hesitate because she found herself being used. After all, she had already fallen into the trap. She could only choose to continue moving forward. If she retreated now, it would not be worth it, this was because no one would lower their guard against her force because of her retreat!
!!
Moreover, even though there were some disadvantages to being the focus, the rich returns were real. Not to mention other things, the rental fees from the first year had greatly reduced the pressure on Pu Yunchuan’s force to repay the loans. He had become the richest force in the base, which also caused Isabelle to be unwilling to back down.
It had to be said that her old ancestor was very shrewd. She knew that even if she found out later, she would obediently follow her plan… …
At the thought of this, Isabelle could not help but feel a little dejected… …
Of course, even though she was dejected, she still had to live her days. In order to attract the residents of Gondolin, Isabelle announced a holiday the day before the opening of the market. Other than the need to farm land and stand guard, she had to complete fixed work, the soldiers and civilians of other occupations announced a two-day rest. Even the construction of the city was suspended for two days. In addition to the players who came because of their fame, the entire market was quite lively on the opening day.
Jack and black bear were not supposed to be on duty today. After receiving all the centimetres in the past few days, the few of them shouted together and came to the newly opened market.
There were about eight or nine people in Jack’s group. Apart from black bear, Jack also called the orc in their tent, Tristram. Tristram naturally called Bane. Iron hooves, the two of them brought along a few orc children, while black bear brought along his wife and three-year-old daughter.
Just like that, the group set off to the new market in an imposing manner. The number of people in the market was more than they had imagined, causing Bane and the others to have no choice but to pull in a few strutting orc children. It was also fortunate that they had listened to Jack’s suggestion and did not call the group of devilish children over…
They entered from the west side of the market. Most of the people who entered this area were military men who lived in the outer perimeter. They all had strong bodies, and they either brought their wives or children with them as they strolled around in different shops.
The shops near the west side sold most of the necessities of life, which were also in short supply in the military base. For example, flower oil, vegetable oil, salt, sugar, and other condiments. Of course, there were also some magic items for daily use, for example, fire crystals could be used for heating and lighting in a small tent. There were also ice crystals that could be used in summer to cool down the heat. Not only could they be used to cool down the heat, but they could also be used to make an ice cellar to store food.
Of course, due to the current weather, there was not much demand for the latter. Most of them were only used as samples for display. However, everyone could see that it was practical and immediately felt very satisfied. At the very least, they walked in from the city gate, they felt that many things were quite necessary and weren’t too flashy, so they all sold and bought many things.
This was especially so for Bane and trisme. Salt and sugar were rare goods on the plains, and a few points could be exchanged for a big bag. The two naturally didn’t hold back and each bought a few big bags.
There were also some sweets in the necessities section that were popular with children. The designs were exquisite and delicious. The few beast clan dolls had never eaten such things before, so they all pestered bane and trisme to buy them.., the two of them thought that since the sweets were delicious, they would bring some to the naughty child who couldn’t come. In the end, they bought a few more large bags. Thus, the points that they had worked so hard to earn over the past few days were quickly depleted.
The owner of the shop looked at the cheering children with a smile while instructing the humans beside him on how to deduct their points.
“Boss, what is this?”
Jack and the others were not interested in the exquisite candy. Instead, they looked at some strange things beside them with interest, such as the small ball that he was pointing at.
“Hey, Sir…”the shop owner’s eyes lit up when he saw the thing that Jack was pointing at. He quickly explained with a smile, “That is a military food pill. One pill can satisfy the energy requirement for a day, which means that you won’t be hungry for a day…”
“Really? Such a small thing?”Jack curiously approached and sniffed, he had undergone the No. 4 sequence surgery and still looked human. However, his body belonged to the bovine family, so he ate a lot. Usually, even if it was a new high-level agricultural product food from Gondolin.., he had to eat four to five kilograms of food to barely fill his stomach!
“Of course it’s true…”. The boss smiled and said, “This thing was developed by our alchemists’grandparents to be used in the military. For example, if you go out on a detection mission, this is a very practical thing. After all, you can’t go out and carry hundreds of kilograms of food, right?”
“Interesting…”Jack Thought for a while and ate it. He felt that once the ball was bitten open, a sweet taste instantly exploded in his mouth. Jack nodded repeatedly. He didn’t know whether to say it or not, but the taste was not bad.
After chewing for a long time, Jack reluctantly swallowed the ball. Not long after, he clearly felt a wave of heat coming from his body. His entire stomach felt warm, and his hunger was instantly swept away!
“Good stuff, Boss!”Jack’s eyes lit up. With this thing, he did not have to go hungry at night. After all, the kitchen staff did not fire at night…
“Thank you for the compliment…”the boss looked at him with a smile. “Thank you for your expense. Please go to the counter and pay for this military food pill…”
Jack was stunned, and then he curled his lips. “You want money for just one pill? Boss, your business is too stingy, isn’t it?”
“It’s a small business. Please forgive me, Sir…”the elf player with makeup said with a smile.
“Forget it…”Jack didn’t care about it. He walked up and took out his centimeter card. The female teller swiped the card and the arcane spell instantly sent a mechanical notification, “Insufficient balance!”
Jack was a little confused. The boss saw it and explained, “The money in your card is not enough…”
“What?”Jack was stunned after hearing the notification, “How is that possible? I have eighty points in my card!”
“You just ate a special high-grade military ration pill from our shop. The price is 100 points, no discount!”
“Is this a scam?”Jack’s face turned dark.
“Sir, please be careful…”. The boss said patiently, “Every item we sell is reported. It is in accordance with the market rules of your city. Moreover, it is clearly marked with a price. Are you blaming me for eating it without looking at the price?”
Jack was stunned. He looked at the place where the military food pill was just now and saw that there was indeed a very obvious price tag on the side. The big words on it were 100 points per pill! !
He suddenly froze on the spot.
This was not his carelessness. Who would have thought that a pill could be sold at such an expensive price? According to past experience. Wasn’t it normal to buy some fruits or nuts in the market and eat one or two of them?
What kind of person eats up his salary for several days in one bite?
Jack suddenly felt like crying…
