It's been most of the day since John left the group with the Primordial Soul. By the time the crowd felt a little tired, John looked up at the sun, which had been tilted from the top of his head to the west, about three or four o'clock.

John looked around, found a more secluded position, and said, "Eat something to replenish your strength first, and then we will move forward a little further." Anna, take out the map and check where you are. ”

Sunny Sky Drifting Snow heard John's words, and didn't react at first, but then he thought that John was calling her identity in the game, and took out a piece of brown paper from his backpack and opened it: "Really, the store manager just called me Qingtian, and I didn't expect to call me Anna at once." ”

John didn't answer, and pointed to the map in Qingtian's hand.

Qingtian sighed and opened the parchment. Unlike other mini-maps, this map does not automatically detect the surrounding environment, but requires the user's own knowledge of the environment in order to display the map on parchment. Luckily, as a scholar, Sunny has a knowledgeable teacher, and when she is about to set off, her teacher has already given her a lot of information, so on this map, the specific terrain may require the user's own observations, but the big terrain is still not wrong.

Qingtian looked at the cursor on the map—where the map was located—and then pointed to the cursor and moved around, observing the terrain: "There is a large plain ahead, which should be all farms, and it belongs to the Satsuma domain of Viscount Sartre. ”

"Viscount Sartre, who is also a viscount with a lot of power, belongs to the vanguard position on the left in the Lion Slayer Expedition. Wang Jie recalled: "But now Viscount Sartre should have followed the royal court and left." ”

"So this is borderland?" asked Mali, "and can we find a safe place to rest at night?"

John watched their discussion, thinking about the possible gods that Selena had spoken of earlier. You know, that god is his own goal, but can he beat it with this physical fitness now? There should be a way, after all, this mission is to let yourself correct the task that the current primordial soul can't complete, and not let yourself die.

At this time, John thought of the little girl who had been following him, could it be this little girl who helped him when the time came? Or was there some other arrangement?

"Alright, so be it. At this time, the discussion on the side of the original stone soul seemed to have been completed, and everyone clapped their hands, took out the dough cake and marinated jerky, and nibbled on it little by little.

You must know that this is prepared for the march, the first thing to meet is to replenish the lost salt and energy, and the second is to be able to store it for a long time and be easy to carry, so whether it is cured jerky or pastry, it is hard and dry, and it is very salty, and it is like biting a piece of salt in one bite, and you can't eat anything except salty. If you want to eat jerky and bread, you need to slowly melt it with saliva to eat it little by little.

"Speaking of which, don't we have water? Who carries the water? You can't do anything about eating this thing without drinking water. After taking two bites with a sad face, Jian Wu suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Don't think about it, we have water bags, but we've run out of water. The curator touched the empty bag hanging behind him and said, "I didn't bring too much water with me, I only went to the well or the river to fetch water during the break, but there is no river in this place, even if there is a well, do you dare to drink it immediately?

As they spoke, everyone suddenly smelled a smell of broth. Turning his head, John sat on one side, with a pot in front of him, which was gurgling thick soup, and beside the campfire below the pot, there were several sticks of wood with meat on skewers, and the roast on top of it squeaked, and from time to time the roasted fat dripped down.

...... "This store manager is here for an outing?" Anyway, where did you get these things? Could it be that the store manager used his administrator privileges to do this?

"Store manager, are these cooked for us?" Qingtian, who is a girl, was the first to run over and asked.

"Well, you can eat it if you want, fifty souls per bowl?" John said, touching his chin.

“...... I still need a soul. Qingtian said, "Do you need barbecue too?" ”

"The store manager is really, how can you sell food as a commodity to the team members as a captain?" said Qingtian's face bulging.

"If it's munitions, naturally you don't need souls. John took out his portion of the cured jerky and bread and handed it over, "Do you want it?" ”

"That's what I'm talking about. Qingtian looked a little broken, pointed to the thick soup and said: "The captain is too cunning, he drinks the thick soup and eats the barbecue, but his own team members are nibbling on the side of the cured jerky and pastry." ”

"Because as captain, I will give you my supplies. But whether it's soup or barbecue, it's not the captain's property, it's my own as the manager of the restaurant, and you need to buy it with your equivalent. John said solemnly.

"......" everyone was speechless. Sure enough, the store manager who asked for money didn't change.

"Then, store manager, you can sell us some water. Qingtian looked at John, who was asking for money, and said helplessly: "Pure water can't be too expensive, right?" "It's not expensive, a bag of twenty souls." John pulled out several cowhide water bags full of water from the space and said, "How much do you want?"

"It's too expensive, isn't it, why is it so expensive?" Qingtian was a little speechless and asked: "Store manager, you're not reasonable, not to mention the lack of water, it's still so expensive!"

"Because now I'm the only one selling, according to your words, this is a monopoly transaction, that is, a seller's market, so the price is only set by me, and the only thing you can choose is to buy or not to buy. It's okay not to buy it, I just looked at the map, the nearest clean water source is more than half a day's journey from here, if you are willing to nibble on the salted meat and salty dough cake and endure for more than half a day to drink water, I will not have an opinion, otherwise you will only have the choice of buying water from me. ”

"Where did you learn all this? It's also a monopoly on trading, a seller's market, I've never seen you say that before. Horsepower, who sounded funny, also walked over and asked.

"Him. John gestured to Ren Kazama, who was sitting behind watching the bustle. 、

Ren Kazama was originally just sitting in the back watching the excitement, but he was suddenly overwhelmed by John throwing over and burning: "Hey, John, don't talk nonsense, when did I teach you this?" also knew that if he didn't make his words clear this time, it would be a good beating, so he quickly stood up and said while hiding from everyone's outstretched hands: "John, you can help me explain!"

"It's true that you taught me, weren't the first things you came to trade for me with Capital and The Wealth of Nations?" John looked at Kazama with a strange look on his face, and said, "Isn't what I just did written in these books?"

"Ah, that's true!" Kazama heard what John said, and it was right to think about it carefully, if what John said was indeed taught by himself, could it be that he had made a fool of himself?

Ren Kazama was so distracted that he was caught by the curator, and then he was overwhelmed by everyone. After everyone was angry and left, only a messy Kazama Ren was left lying on the ground. When he came back to his senses, Kazama asked his teammates who were sitting next to him and watched the excitement just now: "You too, don't you come over to help me stop them." ”

"I still want us to help you, if you don't help beat you, it's okay, at that time, let you show off, talk about mythology and history, which is not good? Afu-Fox in Ren Kazama's team said, "I know it's awesome now." "The problem is, there are so many of them. Kazama Ren grabbed Feibai's outstretched hand and stood up: "You have also seen it, there are thousands of souls just by reciting the complete "Capital", are there so many others?"

"Wait, thousands?" the horsepower over there heard and asked, "Why are there so many?" I remember we tried before, but we only got a little bit of soul. ”

"I guess you only have a very shallow explanation, as long as you understand it deeply and explain it in detail, the soul you will get will be better. Kazama didn't think it was worth hiding anything, so he simply sold his favor.

Wang Jie also looked at John, saw John nodding, thought about it and walked over: "Store manager, I want to trade now." "What is the trade?water, barbecue, or soup?" Wang Jie shook his head: "It's not about buying, I'm going to sell, selling knowledge." ”

As soon as he said this, Selena appeared next to John out of thin air and said, "Then you can start." ”

"What I'm going to trade is, math. Wang Jie took a breath and began to speak. Starting with the simplest methods of addition and subtraction, he moved on to the unary equations, and then worked his way up to trigonometric functions, exponential functions, plane geometry, and solid geometry, which he had just learned.

John didn't interrupt, just sat there and listened to Wang Jie while eating barbecue. After Wang Jie finished speaking, John waited for a response and said, "These can give you 300 soul points." Sure enough, there are more souls than the myths originally told. It may be because Wang Jie's own understanding of these is not enough, and the narration is naturally not clear, resulting in fewer souls, or it may be that because he has talked about a lot of knowledge points, the souls have also accumulated. Regardless, it's a new way to trade.

"Manager, if I want to trade a part of the water, I'll exchange it for 200 soul water. Wang Jie naturally knew what he needed now, and after directly exchanging enough water to drink now, he came back with a water bag and distributed the water to everyone, and everyone finished this lunch with the help of water.
