Chapter 209: Magical Prices
Probably because of the proximity to the activity square, there are obviously more people here, and the entrance to the activity square is crowded with black people.
Wu Liao subconsciously lowered the brim of his hat, after all, this is Jarvis's lair, it is right to be low-key, in case it is not good to startle the snake.
Tang Youcai also slowed down, walking side by side with Wu Liao.
"Wu Liao, don't look so timid." Tang Youcai looked ahead and said as if nothing had happened.
"The number of ships of the Miracle Company has increased in recent years, and now it is close to tens of thousands. Due to the Chinese New Year's Eve, the current ship group is only a loose ensemble, and there is no real controller. ”
Tang Youcai looked at these people with relaxed and comfortable faces, and he couldn't help but be infected, and his face was relaxed.
He said softly: "Although the starship where Jarvis is located is still the theoretical controller and commander, but until the moment of emergency, the ship group is only a plate of scattered sand, and only when the interests of the majority of the ship group are threatened, will they be gathered together to form a terrifying war machine!" ”
Tang Youcai's tone couldn't help but become solemn, he still remembered how the Miracle Company had rebelled against the human government.
Huanhuan pursed her lips slightly, with her age she didn't know what happened back then, she didn't really believe that this mere 10,000 people could be called war machines.
Tang Youcai naturally caught the look of the circle, he just smiled faintly, and was not busy explaining, just walked forward slowly with the two of them.
As soon as he blended into the enthusiastic people in the activity square, Wu Liao was much more relieved.
He didn't see the slightest hostility on the faces of these people, and there were young people who had traveled to the ground on the ship, so there would be unfamiliar human faces on the group for a long time.
The starship at the location of the event plaza is indeed the largest ship in the entire group, and although it cannot be said to be endless, it is really difficult to see the other side through the dense crowd.
Anyway, the passage to the inside of the starship was at the edge of that side, and Tang Youcai simply took Wu Liao and the others all the way to the edge of the activity square. Not only will they be able to see the beautiful scenery, but they will also be able to see the strength of the ship.
Most of the stalls are on the edges, and a few muffled cries can be heard from time to time.
The eyes of the circle gradually became hot from the indifference at the beginning.
The things in this stall are dwarfed by the variety of things, and they are simply all-encompassing!
Food was in short supply on the ship, with only a few stalls on display.
Don't underestimate these inconspicuous stalls, a few pomegranates, two handfuls of vegetables, and a pound of beef can be exchanged for some high-tech products.
And the sky-high price of enhancement potions in the human society of the bunker is simply not worth mentioning here. A five-fold booster is in the bunker, and only high-level hunters can exchange it for hunter points, and ordinary people can't reach it even at a high price.
As soon as Huanhuan saw this potion, she immediately became interested, and she slowly led Wu Liao to the food stall not far away.
"How do you sell this enhancement potion?" Huanhuan asked curiously, staring curiously at a young man huddled in front of the food stall with a booster in his hand.
The young man was stunned at first when he saw the circle, and it was rare to see such a beautiful girl in the ship group, until he saw her holding Wu Liao's hand, and then he realized his gaffe.
He smiled shyly and said aloud, "I'm sorry, this lady. Then he said generously: "You must have come from the 021 habitat, right?" It looks a little raw. ”
In the entire human world, only the 021 habitat is closely connected to the ship group, and those long-established human families will often come to the ship group to trade.
Ordinary bunker humans, on the other hand, know very little about ship groups, and few of them will come here to trade at the risk of being discovered by robots!
"Yes, we're from Habitat 021." Tang Youcai smiled, squeezed forward from behind the circle and Wu Liao, and said with a probe.
may be due to the fact that he has been away for a long time, and his appearance has changed a lot, it is normal for no one to recognize him, which undoubtedly puts on a natural umbrella for him.
Besides, even though I haven't been to Habitat 021 and have a deep intersection with Beard, I can be considered half of the residents of Habitat 021. Tang Youcai thought so.
Not to mention Wu Liao and the circle, it can be said that without them, there would be no habitat 021 today.
The young man laughed heartily twice: "We really envy you, living on the ground, all kinds of food are sufficient. People don't have to worry about running out of food to eat. ”
Wu Liao's eyes rolled and said softly, "Shouldn't it?" We understand that your technology is so advanced, how can you not even cultivate food? ”
When the young man heard Wu Liao's question, he completely regarded him as a tourist who came to play.
He waved his hand and said: "That's nature, of course there is no shortage of food, but the vegetables and fruits cultivated without soil are too far from the taste on the ground, and it is simply tasteless!" ”
The young man thought of the first time he had eaten fruit from the ground, and the fragrant smell stretched from his throat to his chest, and the sweet smell lingered in his chest for a long time. It's not the same as the food that the ship group has cultivated!
"Not to mention high-protein foods such as meat and eggs, although I have also made simulated protein products for a period of time, compared with real meat, it can be said that it is like chewing wax!" The young man said with a look of disgust.
When Huanhuan heard this, he not only smiled.
Although she had already eaten a meal in Tang Youcai's house, the food there was not bad, so naturally she would not have thought that the life of the ship group would be so bleak.
"Oh, I'm sorry!" The young man whispered, and he smiled embarrassedly as he realized that he had not answered the beautiful lady's question all this time.
"A fifth-level strengthening potion like this is also considered the best among similar products." The young man held up the pale blue potion.
The blue liquid is extremely transparent, as if it is not mixed with a trace of impurities, and it is crystal clear.
Even Tang Youcai couldn't help but look sideways, although his effect was not strong, but the purity was really quite good.
The young man had a proud expression on his face: "I made this with a lot of effort. In a food stall like this, you can get two or three apples. ”
"Fresh beef! Fresh beef! The highest price wins! The owner of the stall, a middle-aged man in a medical protective suit, greeted the passing crowd while carefully placing pieces of beef of the same size on the table.
The beef was a little dark red, and it didn't look fresh, but here in the ship, it's a rarity.
As soon as the young man heard these calls, he planned to try his luck, and directly turned around and rushed to the stall next door, directly leaving Wu Liao and the others who were still talking happily just now!
"I didn't know beef was so valuable!" Wu Liao sighed for no reason, and the circle was also shocked.
The beef stall suddenly gathered in a large circle of people, and more and more people started this round of bidding.
"I'm out of the latest communication facilities!"
"Two new laser weapons!"
"Anti-gravity catapult, plus three laser grenades!"
"Enhancement Elixir! 3 times, 5 sticks! ”
There are more and more bidders, and what they are talking about here is like the price of cabbage, which thing in the human world is not a thing that is not speculated to sky-high prices?
The three people who were originally in a hurry to save people stopped when they saw this posture, anyway, it's still early, and if they really rescue their brothers, it's not very convenient for this person to have many eyes.
So they deliberated in a low voice and decided to carry out a rescue campaign when the crowd receded.
"Alright, alright! Come one by one! The owner of the beef stall said impatiently, he must be used to seeing this kind of scene.
Only then did the crowd fall silent.
They lined up in an orderly manner, walked to the boss's booth one by one, reported their products, and then decided whether to trade through the boss.
From time to time, the crowd would be filled with dejected faces walking out, hammering their heads as they walked to other stalls trying their luck.
And the lucky few who got the beef were arrogant but carefully wrapped the beef, and ran back in the direction of their own house with a cigarette.
Gradually, the long queue became shorter and shorter, and the owner of the beef stall pulled down the curtain with a swipe and announced the end of today's business.
The residents at the back of the long line, who didn't even see the meat, cursed and scattered in all directions, and quickly gathered to the vegetable and fruit stall on the side.
The young man just now trotted all the way towards Wu Liao and the others.
His chest was bulging, and he looked like he had made a successful trade.
"How's it going? Looks like you'll be able to feast on it? Tang Youcai asked jokingly.
The young man nodded excitedly, looking very happy!
He mysteriously opened his pocket, revealing a small bag of offal inside.
"Although I didn't get beef, but today the boss was very merciful, and I took a potion and actually got so much offal!" The young man said proudly.
"By the way, I'm quite close to you, do you want to go home with me, I'll stew meat for you to eat!" The young man asked softly.
Tang Youcai shook his head with a smile, and said softly: "Forget it, we eat a lot over there, we will contact each other often when we are free, and I will bring you something when I come back." ”
Tang Youcai said with a smile: "It's free!" ”
After that, he took out the communicator and shook it on the young man, and the signal was quickly connected, and the communicator on the young man's body rang.
