Chapter 35: Green's Grocery Store

One afternoon.

Beta Town Pedestrian Street.

Green Grocery.

After lunch, Zheng Qing did not immediately return to the dormitory to rest, but dragged Dr. Xiao through a dark corridor to the pedestrian street.

The young public-funded student was apprehensive about what had happened to the morning Charms class.

He is deeply aware that in order to truly improve the efficiency of the classroom in the future, it is very necessary to prepare a few commonly used shorthand quills.

The Green Grocery Store is located between Shuangtang Kee and the Hook Brothers watch store, and is also close to the entrance and exit of the promenade leading to the campus. Shuangtang Ji is the shop that sells candy people, and when Zheng Qing just passed by, he couldn't help but buy another little candy man who was tap-dancingβ€”this childish behavior was silently despised by Dr. Xiao.

At noon, especially during normal school hours, there are not many pedestrians on the pedestrian streets.

But the Green grocery store was crowded and lively.

When Zhang Jixin recommended this shop to Zheng Qing, he swore that he would be able to buy the fastest quills in the whole of Phuket Island here.

"My brother told me, it's absolutely true!" said the red-faced wizard.

The truth is much the same.

From squeezing into the door of the store to the front of the sales counter, less than ten meters away, Zheng Qing had already seen four or five groups of young wizards leaving the store with all kinds of goods, including various teaching aids, experimental tools, commonly used herbs, and pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and so on.

"There are people who buy it, and there are many people who buy it...... This is a good sign. Zheng Qing nodded, looked around thoughtfully, and whispered to his companion beside him: "It proves that the goods here are really good." ”

Xiao Xiao hugged the notebook, rolled her eyes lazily, and snorted: "Idiot." ”

The young scholar had long been accustomed to the Doctor's sarcastic and mocking tone, and this did not in any way affect his strange pleasure in looking around.

The goods sold in the Green grocery store are very rich.

The tall shelves stretched from the soles of the feet to the ceiling - and it was evident that the store had magically expanded the room a lot too - and were full of goods.

Stacks of five standard talismans, neatly tied with red thread, are stacked on the shelves, and next to them hangs a large playing card with the words 'No Retail' written in bold letters.

Similarly, there are ten pairs of silkworm skin gloves and a hundred pieces of paper for colored cranes, all of which are on the shelves of the same height, and it can be seen that these goods have the largest sales. The young wizards who entered the store also seemed to know the rules of the boss, and they did not bargain or pick and choose, picked up the packaged goods, threw down the metal currency in their hands, and slipped away, the whole rhythm was extremely smooth.

Goods on high shelves are more troublesome.

Guests don't always step on a high ladder or sit on a soft Persian flying carpet and wander to a high place to check the goods.

The grocery store is equipped with a large group of elves for this. Dressed in green gauze skirts, they clutched long brown paper bills and flew through the air.

Guests can tear off the brown paper manifests floating in front of them at any time, refer to the product data listed above, and if necessary, beckon the elves to take the goods down.

"What do you need two gentlemen?" noticed the young red robe looking around in the store, and the witch with a pointed hat behind the sales counter greeted kindly: ""Three-year Simulation of the Fifth Grade Exam", "Interpretation of Wang Daxiong's Complete Set of Textbooks", "Sprint Full Score", "Gold List Title", etc., as well as the exercise books privately published by the professors of Jiuyou College, and the class notes of the previous Jiuyou chief students...... The Green grocery store has it all. ”

Zheng Qing listened to those terrifying terms, with a stiff expression on his face, and reluctantly smiled: "Don't worry, don't hurry... I don't need ...... yet I just wanted to buy a few quills. ”

"Oh, quill. The saleswoman who couldn't catch the big fish was obviously a little disappointed, but she quickly picked up her spirits and recommended with great interest: "So what kind of quill do you want? I can recommend a few classic ...... to you."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and dragged a green peacock that was pacing slowly on the sales counter, forcibly tearing open the peacock's tail screen.

All kinds of quills are stacked on top of each other to form a beautiful colorful tail screen.

The green peacock lying on the sales table seemed to notice the shocked expressions on the faces of the two young wizards in front of him, and involuntarily raised his neck and quacked triumphantly.

The saleswoman wearing a pointed hat slapped the green peacock's head back on the table, and said with a smile: "Look at this ...... The red feathers of the mountain jackdaws are naturally added to the refreshing effect, so you don't need to worry about dozing off in class when you hold it in your hand...... And this one, made from the feathers of the Luobin goose, can be used all day after dipping it in ink once!"

Xiao Xiao suddenly stretched out his hand, pointed to a huge cyan quill in the center of the green peacock's tail screen, and asked suspiciously: "What about this one? Why do I look like the tail feathers of a luanbird?! They should belong to the magical creatures that the Wizarding Alliance prohibits hunting." ”

"That's right! This is indeed a quill made from Qingluan's tail feathers. The witch glanced at the small wizard in surprise, and then emphasized, "But this feather comes from a Qingluan who died unexpectedly...... If required, Green Grocery can provide complete documentation of the process. ”

"No, not really, thank you. Xiao Xiao quickly retracted his hand and picked up his notebook again.

Zheng Qing cleared his throat and added dryly: "Actually...... All I need is a few shorthand quills...... It is used to take class notes. ”

Once again, this demand hit the young witch behind the sales counter.

Her disappointment was palpable, and Zheng Qing almost couldn't help but take out her wallet and buy the quill of Qingluan's tail feathers.

Fortunately, he touched his shriveled money bag in time to dispel this impulse.

"Shorthand quill pens, a bundle of six, don't just sell. The young witch brought up a small tree from under the stage and placed it in front of the guests.

Zheng Qing thought for a moment that what she had taken out was a Christmas tree.

Fortunately, he soon noticed that it was not the needles of the pines and cypresses hanging from the branches and branches, but bunches of quills tied together with multicolored threads.

"There are different styles of shorthand pens here...... You can try it out first. The saleswoman pushed over a piece of white paper and a small box of ink, nodded politely, and said, "After you have chosen, you can give them the money." ”

As she spoke, she pointed to an elf sitting at the top of the tree.

The elf awkwardly agreed, shook his wings, and held up the long brown paper bill in his hand, showing his authority to the two young wizards.

The saleswoman tugged at the edge of her pointed hat, smiled apologetically, and turned to greet the other guests.
