041 Discovery
A ring of walls, albeit not high. But for the villagers of Liuhe Village, it is a luxury.
Often, the walls of a town are built by tens of thousands of people, and I don't know how long it will take to complete. After all, in this other world where there is no large equipment, even cutting stone is a complicated job.
Don't look at the three-meter city wall is not high, ordinary beasts are insurmountable. In addition to the shortage of food, the biggest threat in Liuhe Village is those wild beasts in the wild.
Now with this fence, the villagers' sense of security has been greatly improved.
Many villagers stood beside the wall, not for anything else, just to see more. However, since the cement has not yet dried, Bluestone has arranged for people to be on the edge of the fence and not allow people to approach.
To build a ring of walls, Chu Yun had already spent nearly half of his assets. But in a way, it's worth it.
Qingshui County is the only small city within a radius of dozens of miles, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going at the city gate. Among them, there are all kinds of people dressed in various costumes, and their identities are also different.
And Chu Yun, mixed with the flow of people, entered Qingshui County.
Walking through the bustling streets, Chu Yun found a small restaurant. Looking at the flow of people inside through the window, Chu Yun walked in.
It's not a big shop, but it's doing a good job. As far as the eye can see, there are seven or eight tables of guests eating inside. Maybe it's because the price is relatively close to the people, and most of them are ordinary people. There was a table with two weapons on it, and I don't know if it was a warrior.
After finding an empty table and sitting down, Chu Yun ordered two green dishes. For those meats from the other world, he can't arouse his interest in eating them.
Most of the people in the small restaurant are ordinary people, and they talk about their parents between meals. Originally, he wanted to find something useful from the conversation of the locals, but now it seems that Chu Yun has done something too much.
However, he still had some gains, and during the conversation of those people, Chu Yun heard a message. That is, if you want to rent or buy a house in Qingshui County, you must go to a place called Yahang.
After a simple meal, after checking out the location of the tooth shop with the young man, Chu Yun left the small restaurant.
Walking in the direction pointed by the young man, Chu Yun found that both sides of the road were getting more and more lively. Many vendors sell their goods on both sides of the road, making it look like a small market.
This street is more than 100 meters long, and there are more than 100 vendors in it. Roughly speaking, 80% of them sell food.
"Looks like this is a nearby wet market." Looking at the goods in front of those hawkers, Chu Yun secretly said in his heart.
The people live on food, and it is the same everywhere. Chu Yun saw that there were many people shuttling through the middle of the market, constantly picking and asking for prices. Most of them are women, and most of them come out to buy vegetables.
Hey!
Originally, he wanted to rush through this vegetable market, but suddenly, Chu Yun stopped.
Because he saw something piled up in front of a peddler, it was precisely because of this thing that Chu Yun stopped.
Spirit Fruit!
That's right! The vendor had a basket of spirit fruits in front of him, which was not much different from that in Liuhe Village.
Chu Yun didn't expect that in this small market, he would be able to meet a vendor selling spirit fruits.
Just when Chu Yun was stunned, a middle-aged woman stepped forward and said something to the vendor. The next moment, the woman pouted and shook her head and left.
The spirit fruit was extremely important to Chu Yun, and at this time, he hurriedly walked towards the vendor.
"How is this fruit sold?"
Coming to the vendor, Chu Yun asked casually.
Even though Chu Yun was a little excited in his heart at this time, he didn't show it on his face. The tone of his speech was still nonchalant, as if he was asking casually.
"1 silver coin each."
The woman's departure just now made the vendor a little frustrated, and when he saw someone asking for the price, he hurriedly said.
Hearing the vendor's offer, Chu Yun's heart was shocked. I didn't expect that the spirit fruit would be sold so cheaply in Qingshui County.
1 Silver Coin is 100 Copper Coins, and its purchasing power is equivalent to 100 Bucks in the real world. 100 yuan to buy a fruit seems to be very expensive, but in Chu Yun's opinion, it is simply cheap.
With Chu Yun's current strength level, every time he eats a spirit fruit, he will bring about some growth in fighting spirit. Although the increase is limited, it is extremely important for him.
Liuhe Village can only produce 30 catties of spirit fruit every month, which is just enough for him. However, Chu Yun will not have too much of this kind of fruit, and he can completely give it to his family if he can't use it up.
"If you can buy more, I'll give you a cheaper."
Seeing Chu Yun standing there without speaking, the vendor hurriedly continued.
He also knew that the price of 1 silver coin was not low, and this price was already going to go for several people. Now seeing Chu Yun standing here without speaking, the peddler still has a glimmer of hope in his heart.
"So, I'll ask you a few questions. If the answer is good, I have all the fruit for you. ”
Looking at the more than twenty spirit fruits in the basket in front of the vendor, his eyes rolled, and Chu Yun spoke.
"Okay! You ask! ”
didn't expect the young man in front of him to be so refreshing, the vendor hurriedly said, for fear that the other party would leave if the answer was late.
"Where did you get these fruits?"
Knowing that the other party would definitely agree, Chu Yun thought about it and began to ask.
"It was collected from an old man, it should be a villager from a nearby village." Chu Yun's question was not difficult to answer, and the vendor spoke.
"In Qingshui County, how much is this fruit?"
Immediately after, Chu Yun asked a second question.
This question is what he is most concerned about, that is, the size of the spirit fruit on the market.
1 silver coin and one spirit fruit is simply cheap for Chu Yun. If there was such a fruit, Chu Yun would take as much as he wanted.
"There should be quite a few, but the price of those countrymen is too high, and few people generally accept this thing, and most of them sell it themselves." After a moment's thought, the vendor replied.
Immediately afterwards, the vendor told Chu Yun the reason.
It turns out that this spirit fruit has a story.
This fruit has the effect of increasing strength in a short period of time after eating. In this Qingshui County, most of them are given to women who are about to give birth. Eating one or two pills when giving birth can improve the efficiency of childbirth.
Originally, the price of this fruit was very low, and it is precisely for this reason that its price has soared all of a sudden.
After eating the spirit fruit, it can only temporarily increase some strength, and it is useless for ordinary people to eat it. Even if it tastes good, no one will pay a fortune for it.
Therefore, the spirit fruit is now in an awkward position in the market in Qingshui County, and it is easy to collect it and not be able to sell it. And this peddler was also a risky today, and collected all the spirit fruits brought by a nearby villager.
"I see!"
After listening to the hawker's introduction, a gleam flashed in Chu Yun's eyes.
