A worn-out canvas bag containing some gadgets, a thick canvas coat, plus tattered cowhide boots that had been turned out of the corner of the house, and a robbery borrowed from Old Tom's house and dozens of rounds of ammunition, this was all James equipment at this time.

Tightening his neckline, James stepped into the space door with a heart of awe, and the familiar feeling reappeared, and the scene in front of him changed instantly.

The first few times he probed his brain, James couldn't observe the world carefully, but this time after entering this world completely, he found that the space door was backed by a mountain rock, and there was a protruding rock on it, which was really a good place to shelter from the wind and rain.

James habitually examines whether the environment is suitable for staying overnight, which is a basic skill for him as a homeless man, if he doesn't choose a good place to stay, he may get cold all night, and he has to worry about being bullied.

James's pupils shrank sharply when his eyes caught sight of the ashes, and he walked over briskly to examine them carefully.

Someone has been here

There were obvious signs of people sleeping on the ground, a pile of burnt ashes, a few small man-dug pits that had been extinguished with earth, and a few obvious large footprints.

James looked nervous and cautiously turned around, not finding anything out of the ordinary.

Judging by the bonfire and the traces left behind, it was not just formed, at least two days had passed, and this discovery did not make James breathe a sigh of relief.

He thought of the location of the space door, which was backed by a bare mountain rock with a jutting rock on top of it, making it the most ideal location for a night out nearby.

"Could it be that someone has already discovered the spatial passage one step ahead of him?" When James thought of this, his heart suddenly tugged.

"Who could it be? But he didn't notice anyone in his old mansion! James suddenly thought of the overwhelmed stand next to the door of the space in the backyard of the old house.

Someone had definitely discovered the spatial gate one step ahead of him, and this person was most likely from this world

Because if it's someone from a small town, or a guy who accidentally came to the backyard of his old house. There is no need to camp here overnight.

James's mood is a little complicated, originally he was planning to monopolize this novel world, but the guy who suddenly appeared added countless variables to him.

The footprints on the soft loess on the ground were clearly human footprints, and they were in boots, but the footprints looked a little too large to James. James stepped in and gestured, and the whole footprint was more than half the size of his foot.

What kind of footprints could it be? This guy must be a big guy in the first place. James unfolds infinite associations

There didn't seem to be so much danger in the jungle, the trees here were tall, the flowers were beautiful and beautiful, but the structure of the creatures was not as complex as the jungle of his hometown, and it didn't seem to have to deal with all kinds of difficult poisonous insects and poisonous snakes that could emerge at any time.

Stepping on the soft greenery and inhaling the fresh and unusual air, James felt surprisingly energetic, walking a lot of roads and climbing a lot of rocks. But he didn't feel too tired, and along the way, James discovered many new species.

For example, the blue long-eared rabbit he saw for the first time, and the green little thing like a ball of meat, very similar to the slime in the anime, but a slime with hair

"If you catch one, you can definitely buy it for a good price." James thought so. "Those biological scientists are going to go crazy because of this, and I'm going to be rich because of it. But it is more likely that he is being targeted by someone with a heart, and the space door is exposed, which is a one-shot deal. ”

James, who has been adrift for many years, instinctively wary of those capitalists.

As he walked on, James was somewhat relieved by the cosy jungle, and he climbed up a hill. Looking at the scenery in the distance, the green mountains and green waters are full of life.

Suddenly, James spotted a path in a field of greenery that was no more than his knees, with obvious signs of being trampled on.

It's a nice find. If there are people in this world, how to communicate with them, is there any danger?

The thought flashed through James's mind, and he ran excitedly towards the path.

He came here through the space gate in the morning, looked at his watch, and less than two hours had passed, it was still early, and the sun in this world was also high in the sky, and there was no sign of going down for a while.

James was anxious to understand the situation in the world and to know some basic information.

After walking along the path for about half an hour, James was pleasantly surprised to find a house in front of him, close to the water's edge.

James ran over excitedly, tired and a little out of breath.

"Stop, who are you" At this moment, a voice made James stop immediately.

James quickly took out the shotgun standing on the canvas bag and pointed at the guy who suddenly appeared in front of him.

I can't help James not be nervous, the guy in front of him is too tall, far taller than ordinary people, like a small giant, burly figure, casually scattered hair, shabby black clothes and a strong body hidden under the shadow, all give James a strong sense of oppression.

"Who are you? What are you doing here," the strong man asked again.

The strong man spoke English, which James could fully understand.

"I'm passing through" James pointed a gun at the strong man, which would give him a sense of security, and James didn't have time to think about why humans also spoke English in the other world.

"The Hobbit?" The strong man looked at the nervous James with a lot of eyes, and wondered why he was holding a strange wooden stick and pointing at him, "Traveler? Or the merchants who marched."

"Well, I'm a traveler." James quickly responded.

"Traveler? It doesn't look like much. The strong man's eyes were sharp, and he looked at James with suspicion.

"Do a little business as well," James thought to himself.

"What did you bring with you?" The strong man's eyes lit up and he walked over quickly.

James was startled and hurriedly took a few steps back.

"Don't get me wrong, my name is Bud, and I live in the town of Long Lake not far away. Our town is more remote. Usually and rarely see the businessman" Bard saw James's distrust of him, and consciously stopped and introduced himself.

Bard's actions won James's favor, and James also needed someone to understand the basic situation here, so he did not refuse Bard's invitation and followed him into the cabin.

The house is relatively basic. The area was not small, and there were many miscellaneous things, and Bud quickly vacated an open space in the room after entering the room, let James take a seat, and poured James a cup of hot tea with a wooden cup.

"This is my temporary residence, and I only live here when I'm fishing, so it's a bit messy." Bard explained with a smile.

Although the house is simple, the area is not small, and the door is even larger. James secretly made a comparison, and roughly determined that Bard was at least two meters tall.

With Bud's figure, it is also a crushing existence when it comes to BNA.

James thought of the big footprint next to the door of the space, could it be Bard? Or is it that the people here are all big guys like Bard.

"The nearest gathering place for hobbits is very far from Long Lake Town, where are you from?" Bard asked.

James knows. Bard must have thought of himself as a hobbit race, like the difference between a yellow and a white race. It's just that James doesn't know how Bard judges the difference between people and clocks, and he doesn't dare to say too much.

"I'm from somewhere else, not from a hobbit colony." James quickly cleared up the relationship, and if Bud asked about the Hobbit Colony, he would be completely blind.

In fact, Bard is unaware of the Hobbits, and knows that they are a hard-working, kind, and intelligent race. Moreover, hobbits are good at using their own hands to create wealth, and their lives are very rich, and the hobbit foot traders are also very popular.

Bard was curious to know something about the Hobbit, but he could tell that James didn't seem to say much. So he asked directly, "What goods did you bring?" ”

James didn't have anything with him, and he pretended to be a foot trader and had some hard time riding a tiger, so he put his shabby canvas bag on the table.

Bud looked at the small canvas bag with some disappointment, and motioned if he could open it to take a look, and James nodded in agreement.

When I opened the backpack, there were really a lot of things inside, including the food prepared by James, biscuits, bread, and a bottle of water, which was contained in an iron cup. Everything else is knives, bullets, ropes, and other things that can be used in the wild.

Bard looked at the widgets in disappointment, it seemed that not every hobbit trader had good goods, "I don't have what I need here." ”

James looked at Bud and asked, "What do you need?" ”

Bud's eyes lit up, "Your cargo isn't far away, right?" I knew how a footman could just carry such a thing."

"What can you pay me? Jewel? Gold? This is what James is most concerned about, if the world uses strange things as currency, he can't get his hands on it and turn it into wealth on earth.

Bard looked at James a little strangely, "If you want gold, as long as the goods are good enough, I can trade with you for gold." ”

James readily agreed, and the two made an appointment, and James took his bag and said goodbye.

Bud valued the business, and in order to support his family, he had to buy cheap fish in Long Lake while running a ferry business. Long Lake Town is a town built on the water of a lake, and fish is really cheap.

He left his work and hurried back to the town to get some possessions, and if he could make a deal with the hobbit and sell it to the town, he would make a fortune, of course, provided that the hobbit trader's goods were good enough.

James excitedly returned to the old mansion and took out all his possessions, six hundred dollars, which he had accumulated after begging for a long time, and the first fund he had made to the door to wealth.

Without a break, James put down his luggage and shotgun, took the money and ran straight to the supermarket in the town.

The supermarket in the town is not big, but the variety is very complete, and everyone in the town basically needs to buy things here, and everyone is familiar with it.

In the midst of a group of cold eyes, James walked into the supermarket, he didn't know what Bard needed, what was the necessities of the otherworld, hard currency. You can only choose everything, salt, shampoo, mirror

There are a lot of scattered things sold, and a large bag is all in the shopping basket.

He plans to do business with Bard for a long time, so naturally he needs to understand what he needs first. He also vaguely knew that Bard might sell what he had in his hands and sell it, which would be better if he didn't need to find another home.

Two full shopping baskets were placed in front of the salesman, and the salesperson's scrutinizing gaze made James extremely uncomfortable, he hated this kind of gaze, he wanted to be rich, let people look high, wait, it would be soon.

After the things were left in the old mansion, Bud went to Old Tom again, and told Old Tom that he was not very lucky today, he did not encounter any prey, and wanted him to lend him the shotgun for another day, but Old Tom did not think much about it, and nodded in agreement.

The next morning, James prepared everything and hurried headlong into the space door.

"It's still late at night?" James was stunned, it was not yet dawn in the Otherworld.

It seems that the time of the Otherworld is not the same as that of Earth, where the duration of the day may be longer.

James sat patiently in the backyard and waited silently, entering the space door from time to time to see if it was already dawn on the other side, and waited until the afternoon.

Coming to the hut again, where Bard had already been waiting for him, when he saw James, he immediately greeted him.

"Need my help?" Bard asked as he looked at James, who was tired and panting with a big burden on his back.

"Thanks, help me get it in, these are today's goods, you see what is needed." James didn't think much of it, after all, these things only add up to about four hundred dollars.

It was still the huge table, a whole bunch of things James had bought from the supermarket, all on the table, and Bard asked carefully about everything.

When he heard that there were salt and spices, with James' nod of agreement, Bud quickly dipped his hand and tasted it.

The goods are all good goods, and Bud smiled bitterly, "I basically want all of these things, James, but my money may not be able to buy them all." ”

"How much money do you have?" James asked.

"That's all." Bard pulled a pocket from his waist and poured it all onto the table.

There was a loud bang, and a dozen gold coins and some copper coins, as well as two walnut-sized gems appeared on the table.

"You can give me the rest of the money next time, and I'll take it first." James said excitedly, grabbing the gold coins and gems in his hands, as for the copper coins, he didn't ask for them.

"What!" Bard was surprised.

"You still want to keep doing this kind of business, don't you? Bud. Next time, when you have money, you will pay off today's payment. James said.

It wasn't until James left that Bard remembered that the price of these goods had not been set, and the business was done!

And James returned to the old mansion in high spirits, returned the shotgun to old Tom, and hurried to the city early the next morning.

He wants to sell the gold coins and gems in exchange for green dollars, even if the price is lower, it is nothing, there is a different world in the backyard, he has a stable income from gold and gems.

Three days have passed, and it is almost time to make an appointment with Bard, but James has been calculating the time of the other world.

After a big shopping spree in the city, James is ready to go big this time, believing that Bard has prepared enough gold and precious stones.

When James, who had dreams of making a fortune, returned to the old mansion, he found that the old mansion had been surrounded by a group of police and soldiers. (To be continued......)
