Chapter 74: Just Call My Sister

Rye's episode didn't last long, and the three of them continued on their way to Stone Town. Along the way, You Yuan occasionally asked some customs and habits, whether there were any taboos and other questions, but also to pass for a while and make it easier to act.

After walking for nearly an hour, they finally saw the shadow of Stone Town, in order not to cause panic among the people in the town, Lao Zhou and Lao He told You Yuan in advance that they would tie the Kodo Beast to a hidden place to prevent it from being seen and causing unnecessary trouble. Of course, You Yuan agreed, he didn't come to find trouble this time, let alone show that he was different.

When they came to a small forest three miles south of Stone Town, You Yuan led the Kodo Beast into it, found three thick trees, and tied them to them. Kodomon was tamed by him, and had a special connection with him, in fact, even if it was not leashed, it would not run, and the reason why it insisted on being tethered was just to remind people passing by that they had a master.

The remaining part of the road requires three people to walk, but fortunately, Lao He and Lao Zhou are in good health, and it is nothing to walk this way.

You Yuan felt that he still had to find a way to buy two conventional means of transportation, such as a horse-drawn carriage. Kodo beasts or other beasts are still too conspicuous to be conducive to future interactions with ordinary human villages and towns.

Stone Town is really as the name suggests, you can see the whole color of the town in the blue gray when you travel far away, and you can see it more clearly when you get closer, all the buildings are made of stone, including the gate.

Entering from the south gate of the town, you can see the houses on both sides of the road, and most of the two rows facing the street have signboards, which are clear at a glance, and they are all for sale.

You Yuan was in it, and he could clearly feel the difference between Lao He and their village and Ma Village, the atmosphere here was very similar to the market he was familiar with, and the things sold were also richer, especially when he saw a restaurant, he wanted to go in and have a look, curious about what food was sold inside.

"Let's go, let's eat something first, and then go shopping after eating!" You Yuan said to the two, and as he spoke, he took the lead and walked towards the restaurant.

But as soon as he took a step, he was dragged by the two of them at the same time: "Lord, you can't exchange things here, you can only spend money!" The two reminded You Yuan in a whisper.

You Yuan had already prepared, Lao Zhou had told him a little before, saying that there were some places in the town that wanted to exchange coins for things, and Lao Zhou also specially showed him what the coins were, and You Yuan only determined after seeing them that this was exactly the same as the gold, silver and copper coins that were common in the system. So he came out this time with a lot of coins.

"Got it, don't worry, I've got the money." You Yuan patted the hands of the two of them pulling the sleeves of his robe and said.

As soon as the three of them entered the door, they were greeted by a guy: "Objective, how many of you?" Inside please! ”

These familiar lines, familiar taste, dream back to the past life! You Yuan responded with a smile: "Three, we want a seat by the window." ”

The guy promised to take them inside and come to a nice position.

There are not many people in this restaurant, there are only two tables of customers, maybe it is not yet time to eat, You Yuan sat down and looked around.

"What do you want to eat?" The man symbolically wiped the table with the rag he had brought with him, then took the recipe and handed it to You Yuan.

Although these three are Lao He the oldest, and Lao Zhou is also very old-looking, You Yuan is richer than the two of them at a glance, and the guys come into contact with people every day, and they know who is in charge at a glance, so the menu is directly given to You Yuan.

You Yuanxian glanced at the recipe and was a little disappointed.

Just talking to the people here, as well as decorative ornaments, he thought that there should be some decent dishes, but he didn't want to get the recipe in his hand and even the staple food and vegetables are a total of more than a dozen, in fact, people don't distinguish between staple food and non-staple food, which is forcibly classified by You Yuan according to the content.

In fact, he was not hungry at all, but now he had no appetite at all, so he showed the recipe to the two old men, "Look at what you want to eat!" ”

The two were a little flattered, Lao Zhou immediately sat down on Lao He's side, the two watched together, and finally ordered a boiled mutton in salted water, a boiled wild vegetables, a steamed pumpkin, and three bowls of millet porridge. The guy was very enthusiastic and brought a plate of watermelon.

The only vegetable on the menu is pumpkin, and the guy gave away a plate of watermelon. This made You Yuan think of the Nanguan and watermelons that he picked up in the warehouse of the Norder pit today, it seems that Hugo is right, there should be a place near this place that specializes in growing these two things.

Taking advantage of the time when the guy came to serve them food, You Yuan asked casually, "Little brother, do you know where to grow vegetables and fruits near here?" ”

The guy smiled and replied, "Yo! You're asking the right person, our proprietress has set up a new watermelon farm, no, this is from her own farm! The guy pointed to the watermelon on the table and said.

You Yuan expressed surprise: "Really? Where's that? I want to go to the field and buy some back, my family has a large population, and I want everyone to try it. ”

Man: "It's 15 miles southwest of town, but I'll ask the proprietress to tell you the price if you want." ”

You Yuan thought for a while and replied, "That's it, you invite your boss lady out, and I'll tell her in person." ”

The guy didn't hesitate, and went inside happily, and after a while, a plump middle-aged woman came to the table with a smile on her face, and laughed twice without saying anything, and then said: "Is this objective want watermelon?" ”

The guy hurriedly came over and introduced, "Guest officer, this is our hostess." ”

You Yuan replied: "Oh, boss lady, how do you sell this watermelon?" ”

The proprietress sat on the vacant seat next to You Yuan with a smile and did not answer directly, "Where did my brother come from?" Look at your face, aren't you from this Stone Town? ”

You Yuan was very surprised, this proprietress had a fight with Lao Zhou, but she still dealt with it calmly: "The proprietress has good eyesight, I came here to do business, passing by here, I saw that your watermelon was delicious, so I thought about bringing some back to my family." ”

The proprietress reached out and took the kettle, poured a glass of water for You Yuan, and said with a smile: "Hey! To tell you the truth, my farm only opened this year, and this is the first batch of watermelons, and I didn't plan to sell them. ”

"Oh? Why is that? You Yuan asked.

"Hey! You may not know if you are a foreigner, this year is not more than in previous years, there have been several animal tides, many farms and vegetable fields have been destroyed, even the seeds have been ruined, and some villages are even more miserable, not to mention the crops, even the people are gone, hey! ”

You Yuan's expression was solemn, of course he knew these things, Lao He and Lao Zhou didn't dare to speak without the lord's signal, but they were deeply convinced by the words of the boss.

The proprietress took a sip of water and continued: "To tell you the truth, my farm was left by a friend who died in the beast tide, and these watermelons were also planted by him, and I plan to keep them as seeds, and occasionally give a plate to the guests who come to eat here to try it." ”

"Oh, I see, since that's the case, I won't embarrass the boss."

"Hey! In this way, I see that you are kind to my brother, since it is the first time you come to my shop, I will make an exception, send you two, take them back to the family to taste, and wait for me to plant them again next year, just remember to take care of my business. After speaking, he pointed to the signboard at the door and continued: "The word swift is not only the name of the restaurant, but also my name, my maiden name is Leng, you can call me sister in the future." ”
