111. Ginseng Sold
"How much do you want to sell?"
Kuang Huaikun looked at the ginseng carefully again, and after confirming it was fine again, he shook his head silently. If this ginseng comes from deep mountains, there should be no problem. In fact, it is not that there is absolutely no wild ginseng in the south, but it is extremely rare, so people in the world think that wild ginseng only grows in the north.
"How much are you going to pay?" Lu Yun's eyes flashed cunningly, and she asked with a smile before Lu Aiguo and Shizuo could say anything.
Kuang Huaikun suddenly felt like he had met a little fox. He glanced at Lu Aiguo and Shitou, "She can call the shots?" , "Yes."
Kuang Huaikun looked at the three people in front of him and was speechless for a while, he had never seen anything like this before.
Obviously there is an adult man, but there is also a teenage boy who looks more stable than his peers, but he has to call a six or seven-year-old girl to call the shots?
Kuang Huaikun stretched out a slap and five fingers. His psychological price is 5,000 yuan - according to his thoughts, this ginseng is actually far more than worth the price, but now his authority is only here.
I wonder if this little girl will call out five or fifty yuan? Kuang Huaikun speculated with "maliciousness", and stared at Lu Yun with a smile in his eyes without blinking.
"Did Grandpa mean 50,000 yuan?"
Lu Yun blinked her big eyes and saw through Kuang Huaikun's little abacus. Isn't this person planning to accept her ginseng for 5,000 yuan?
She couldn't help but feel sorry for the 50,000 yuan. If this is more than 50,000 years later, even 500,000 or 5,000,000 will not worry about selling.
"What fifty thousand? I mean five thousand." Kuang Huaikun jumped up.
Five thousand?
Lu Aiguo and Shitou looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. They thought it would be great to be able to sell for one or two thousand yuan.
Kuang Huaikun's eyes swept across Lu Aiguo and Shi Shi's expressions, and it was no wonder he called a little girl out. It turns out that this is the little fox that is really hidden.
Kuang Huaikun regretted it. If he knew earlier, he would definitely refuse to "negotiate" with a little girl. Obviously, the two big ones are better to fool!
It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world --
"Five thousand? Are you a bandit, Grandpa? What's the difference between you and a direct robbery?" The liar looked at him.
"50,000 is too much for sure, how about 30,000?"
Kuang Huaikun was obviously guilty, and at the same time he secretly wiped away tears of sadness. He calculated his savings and decided that even if he went bankrupt today, he would take down this wild ginseng no matter what.
"Forty-five thousand." Lu Yun gritted her teeth and gave in.
"Thirty-five thousand, that's really all I have on me." Kuang Huaikun was sweating a little on his head. This bone looks like it's not easy to chew. He has to report all his net worth. If there is more, he really can't get it out and has to use his collection to pay for it. He thinks that his collection may be lost to the point where he doesn't know the goods. , in the hands of people who don't know how to cherish them, he will wrinkle an old face in frustration.

"Okay, deal."
Lu Yun stared at Kuang Huaikun for a while, feeling that his demeanor didn't look like he was lying, and finally nodded reluctantly.
Very good! The collection he had managed to save was protected. Kuang Huaikun was almost moved to tears.
"There will be someone to take over at two o'clock. You wait for me a little longer, and when someone comes, I will go back and get money for you?" Kuang Huaikun looked at Lu Yun carefully.
"Okay." Lu Yun nodded cheerfully, it was already 1:40 anyway, so it would be nothing to wait. At this price, it is probably easy to sell a second one now.
Alas, good goods still have to be sold to people who know the goods. Otherwise, if it is sold at a low price, those who can't buy it will feel that they have lost a lot of money. How good it is now - all the best.
Kuang Huaikun happily found a box made of horse dung paper and carefully put the ginseng in it, then still wrapped it in Lu Aiguo's original cotton cloth and handed it to him, with a bit of reluctance, "Well, put the stuff in your place first. , I'll pay for it in one hand and deliver it in one hand.
"No need, grandpa, keep this ginseng in your hands, and you'll be fine in a while. "Lu Yun smiled and said to Kuang Huaikun in a very good mood.
"Who defaulted on the bill?" Anyone who knows my old situation knows that my old situation has never been the kind of person who defaults on his debts. Kuang Huaikun suddenly jumped up and handed the ginseng in the direction of Lu Aiguo with great determination, but he regretted it before he could say it, so he retracted his hand and changed his face and said
. It's the layman who doesn't know how to keep this thing, and if you put a good root in your hands and break one and a half, it's not worth that much money. Forget it, I'll work harder to help you keep it first. .
Lu Yun covered her mouth and snickered, even Lu Aiguo and Shitou couldn't hold back their laughter. Kuang Huaikun pretended not to see it and shouted at Lu Yun dissatisfiedly, "
Tsk, the little girl is so clever. But didn't they say don't call me grandpa? Why are you acting stupid with me? "
Lu Yun made a face at him with a smile, and didn't take his words at all. After that, she still went her own way, making Kuang Huaikun angry, and it's not good to really care about a little girl's film.
A piece of ginseng was sold. Thirty- five thousand yuan?
Until they took such a huge sum of money in their arms and came out of the bank. The three of them were on their way home, and the money had already been moved into Lu Yun's space. Lu Aiguo also There is a feeling that I am dreaming, even walking is like stepping on cotton.
On the way, there were people passing by from time to time, he just restrained himself, he didn't dare to say the price, and asked himself and asked Shi Shi and Lu Yun if they were dreaming something similar.
Compared with him, Stone is much calmer. Except for the surprise at the beginning, he has not shown too much strangeness. Obviously, he is the kind of person who has a relatively strong ability to bear.
According to the original plan, the three of them also planned to sell some goods to try the water in Haicheng, but it turned out that Lu Aiguo's state was obviously inappropriate and then acted according to the original plan. So Lu Yun whispered with Shitou and decided to go straight back all the way.

When I passed by the entrance of the cinema, it happened to be the time when the next movie was about to start, and I saw many people crowded into two piles. Holding the money and squeezing into it, the level of popularity is simply unimaginable.
Lu Yun couldn't help but stop, and Shitou and Lu Aiguo also stopped.
112. Profits
The three of them stayed in the shade and watched as the movie time approached, the stream of people with more or less different snacks or popsicles gradually dispersed, and then they looked at the two stalls at the entrance of the real cinema.
One sells melon seeds, salted jujubes and fried soybeans rolled into a cone with newspapers; the other sells ice cream and popsicles.
Without seeing it with my own eyes, no one would have imagined that the business of the small stall in front of the cinema would be so hot?
Lu Yun stared blankly, her mind spinning thousands of times in an instant. It wasn't until she saw the stone running towards the two stalls that she regained her senses as if she had just woken up from a dream.
Lu Aiguo also came back to his senses. I saw that his eyes were round, and he watched the stone stay in front of each booth for a while, and then ran back.
"It seems that Haicheng is really full of gold!"
Lu Aiguo's sigh suddenly made Lu Yun and the stone who had already returned to laugh.
"Brother Aiguo's words are not wrong. We've come right here in Haicheng." Shishi held a snack in one hand and three large cream ice creams with a strong milk fragrance in the other.
When everyone eats and walks with a big creamy ice cream in their hands. Stone again showed them the edible snacks he bought from the small stall.
"This melon seed tube is 5 cents, the big one is 1 cent; the salt and golden dates are 5 cents; the fried soybean is 1 cent. You see, there is only such a small amount, it's too embarrassing."
Stone looked at the snacks in disgust.
"It's better with popsicles. The cream ice cream we eat is the most expensive. It costs 15 cents, which is 3 cents more expensive than the one in our village. It only costs 12 cents in exchange for ours; the cream ice cream is 10 cents. It is also two cents more expensive; finally, there is a red bean popsicle for five cents, which is one cent more expensive."
I used to eat in the countryside, and Shitou and Lu Aiguo both knew a little bit about prices, although they never bought this popsicle. I have eaten here, but the price is very clear.
"I found out just now that these two stalls are actually a family. They said that they were relatives in the movie theater, so they only set up stalls, and others would be driven away."
"It's not necessarily a relative . , but he must know someone inside, maybe it's because of some benefits." Lu Aiguo pointed it out sharply.
"That was my first thought. I thought if we really wanted to take this place there was always a way. But then I thought, do we really need to do that?"
Stone said his hesitation. He admitted that he was tempted to see the booming business of the two stalls just now. I also felt that I could be involved in this business.
However, this temptation fades faster. After thinking about it carefully, he felt that something was wrong.
"How do you say?" Lu Aiguo was a little puzzled for a moment. He couldn't think about it, his brain was first hit by the ginseng sold at a high price, and then he was stimulated by the situation in front of him. The brain heat is almost enough to boil an egg Now, the heat won't go down for a while.
"You think, the daily number of screenings in the cinema is fixed, and there must be a certain number of people watching the film. It's good to sell things here, but you think, is it because there are only two booths here?"
Shitou calmly analyzed and listened to Lu Aiguo. Lu Aiguo thought it made some sense, so he nodded, "Almost."
"If we want to join in, we have to find a way to open up the joints, right? Then we will talk to them. If you grab a business, won't the flow of people make a difference?"
Shi Shi continued calmly.
"Even if we don't say that strong dragons don't overwhelm the local snakes, is such a small piece of meat really worth fighting for? Besides, even if we grab it, how do you know that others won't look at it with jealousy? What way do you want to come in and take part? There will be more people selling things, but the people who buy things will still be the same. Do you think this scene of rushing to buy things will happen again?"
Lu Aiguo nodded thoughtfully, then fell silent and fell into contemplation.
Shitou was relieved to see that he agreed with what he said, "According to my opinion, instead of staying here all day to grab so many customers, why not continue to sell things from house to house to make a lot of money?"
"You Not to mention, I really didn't think about it carefully for a while. Cough, so people really need to keep their minds sober all the time, and they can't make decisions right away when they're hot."
Lu Aiguo laughed at himself . He smiled, but he was a little unwilling in the end, "You said we didn't care about this in vain?" The
truth is really what the stone said. The scene just now can't help but be tempted by the people they pass by. Who knows if the workers in the theater are facing this every day, will they feel a little careful?
Who do you say doesn't have three relatives and four relatives yet, and those people will also come to set up stalls at that time. If the people from the theater can drive others away, can even those people drive away?
It is a person who has nothing to do. For example, he can think of opening up the internal joints of the theater. Are others stupid? According to him, the world lacks the most intelligent people.
"I don't think about it in vain. We can still make money from it in another way." Shitou smiled slightly and said confidently.
"How? What good idea did you think of?" Lu Aiguo suddenly became excited. Stone's brain is alive, and he has many ideas. If he can say that, he must have thought of some way to get a share of it from it.
Lu Yun listened to them while biting the ice cream. She was actually surprised just now. She had business experience in her previous life, and what Shitou said, she actually thought of it right away.
At the same time, her thoughts expanded into many kinds at once, none of which was to let Dad and Shishi come to set up the stall in person... But she would like to hear what Shishi thinks?
"Look at what they sell, do you think of anything?" Shitou shook the big bag of snacks in his hand.
"What can you think of? Hurry up and say it, don't play dumb riddles." Lu Aiguo was too lazy to use his mind any more, so he urged Shitou impatiently.
Shitou laughed and pointed out directly: "They sell only three kinds of snacks, and there are too few varieties. Those who go to the movies will probably get bored if they eat more than a few times. You didn't see it, although There are a lot of people who buy things, but there are also many people who don't? I thought, we have harvested so many things on the mountain this time, can we make small snacks and supply them directly to those who sell things?"

Forced Development (What does it truly mean to live a fulfilling life?)
To get things started I would like to admit that this story does not bring much new to the table when it comes to the over-saturated Litrpg genre in terms of things like mechanics and power systems. Then what exactly am I trying to bring to the table with this work? A nice slow-paced novel about people maturing and growing older think of it as the re: zero or jobless reincarnation of Litrpgs. A story that tries to take into consideration how a worldwide system would affect the economics and culture of a world. A story that is much more character-focused than the typical heavy progression-focused novels this genre is known for. The RPG system, like any good power system, is there to actually explore the themes of the story and not just as a plot device for characters to get stronger. This is a story where we will see the growth of the Mc from being a baby to when he dies of old age. With plenty of heart-racing actions and intriguing plot developments along the way. Exploring themes like; What does it mean to improve at something and what does it mean to mature as a person? How does magic, the constant threat of monsters and people so much stronger than the average joe that they can destroy countries affect one's culture both on the micro and the macro scale? How people are affected by the culture in general? Generational trauma Nature vs Nurture Talent vs hard work What is morality, society, and people's opinions on both? What does it mean to be human and what does it mean to be alive in the context of a world with multiple sapient species vastly different from one another in basic biology? All these questions are going to be explored from multiple angles using the system as a catalyst for those discussions. So if any of does questions sound interesting to you what are you waiting for, I'm sure you are going to love this story. PS - Chapter come out every Friday at about the same time.
