Food King

Chapter 159 Mid-Rank Vermilion Fruit
Outside the square market, bursts of noise continued to be heard, causing Wang Yan to frowned slightly, looking at Huba who was looking aside with excitement, and shook his head helplessly.

"Let's go, it looks like this place is even more lively than the food festival. It's not easy to squeeze in with such a huge flow of people." Looking at the lively scene that can be called a sea of ​​people, Wang Yan said again.

And as his voice fell, Huba nodded, and a sly look appeared in his big light yellow eyes, as if he didn't care about this scene.

"It's really lively. There must be a lot of delicious food. You snatched so many storage bags today, so you want to treat me." Huba said with a smile, causing Wang Yan to roll his eyes. The crowd squeezed in.

Looking at Wang Yan's thin figure, the corners of Huba's lips outlined a happy arc, and he grabbed Wang Yan's arm as he walked forward, a smile appeared on his delicate face: "Follow me closely."

Huba spoke softly, and immediately the two of them squeezed into the crowd. It was the first time that Huba held his arm. Wang Yan was a little uncomfortable, and there were bursts of soft touch on his arm, and the tip of his nose curled around Huba's body. The unique fragrance made Wang Yan touch his nose unconsciously.

Huba's figure is very flexible, she seems to be holding Wang Yan's arm, but in fact she is leading Wang Yan forward, along the way, her figure is like a slippery loach, and unconsciously attracts people around her. Haitui was just a finger away, and after walking ten feet smoothly, his vision suddenly opened up, and at the same time, the flow of people was relatively less.

"Huh, it's really scary." Wang Yan looked at the huge crowd behind him with lingering fear, and immediately withdrew his eyes to look inside the square city.

There are three wide main streets in this square city, spreading all the way to the end of the line of sight. Although they are not as crowded as the crowds outside, there are still a large number of people. According to Wang Yan's estimation, any of these three main streets should be hundreds of feet away.

The place where the two of them were standing was an avenue with a width of about two feet in the center of Fangshi. On both sides of the avenue, besides a variety of shops, there were also some vendors on the floor, making the central main street look lively. extraordinary.

"Let's go, let's take a look first." Wang Yan said softly, and then he and Huba walked towards the avenue. After entering it, the complicated commodities on both sides directly attracted Huba's attention.

The girlish Huba looked left and right, looking like an excited child. As he moved forward, he entered within a range of ten feet, and the commodities on both sides were almost occupied by various fruits and vegetables.

"It's so fragrant." Huba licked his lips, looking at the various fruits and vegetables on both sides, his big light yellow eyes were shining, and Wang Yan's eyes were also shining.

Most of the fruits and vegetables in the imperial capital, especially those sold in the largest square city, are above the middle grade, containing a faint vitality, and the quality is very good.

Low-grade fruits and vegetables are generally grown by ordinary people, because the level of planting and grafting is limited, and they cannot be raised with primordial stones, so they will be relatively flat.

The middle-grade fruits and vegetables are different, in addition to choosing a place with sufficient vitality in the world, they also need to be irrigated by clear springs, and every once in a while, they need a low-grade primordial stone to assist them.

"Peach female peak, strawberry, multicolored virgin fruit, mangosteen fruit, hanging rattan loofah" Wang Yan looked at it, and most of the middle-grade fruits and vegetables in front of him still had some crystal dewdrops on them. , and bursts of fragrance seep out.

All the fruits and vegetables below had their prices written on them. From Wang Yan's cursory glance, most of them were traded in gold coins, and the price was between [-] and [-] gold coins per catty. There were also individual fruits and vegetables that needed low-grade primeval stones in exchange.

"If you like to eat, buy more this time." Wang Yan said with a light smile as he looked at Huba who was showing a greedy look, which made Huba's eyes light up, and he immediately smiled and nodded seriously.

"Go, let's see if there are any better quality ones." Seeing Huba nodding, Wang Yan said again, and then, as the two walked forward, they kept looking at the fruits and vegetables on both sides, and finally, they came together in one place. The small booth stopped in front of it.

This booth is not big, and all kinds of fruits and vegetables are placed randomly. It looks a little messy. An old man with gray hair is sitting cross-legged behind the booth, his eyelids are slightly drooping, and he seems to be drowsy.

"The quality of the fruits and vegetables here is good, but this old man doesn't look like a businessman." Wang Yan glanced at the fruits and vegetables above the booth, and when he looked up, he landed on the drowsy old man and said softly murmured.

The old man seemed to be aware of the arrival of Wang Yan and Wang Yan. As Wang Yan's voice fell, his turbid eyes opened, and there was a trace of laziness on his old face. After stretching, he grinned, revealing his only teeth.

"How do you sell these fruits and vegetables?" Watching the old man wake up, Wang Yan asked with a smile. Just by looking at the messy arrangement of the stall, it can be seen that the old man doesn't seem to be good at business.

"Well, it's all one hundred gold coins per catty." The old man said with a smile, and as his voice fell, Wang Yan was slightly taken aback, and Huba beside him covered his mouth and chuckled, with eyes that looked like a smile but not a smile. Yan also pouted.

"This is comparable to some in your black shop. The price is more than three times more expensive." Huba said softly, while Wang Yan rolled his eyes.

"I want all these fruits and vegetables." Wang Yan nodded, and didn't say much because of the high price. The quality of these fruits and vegetables is indeed good, and Wang Yan doesn't feel any pain in the matter of using gold coins. In the eyes of ordinary people, gold coins are considered valuable, but to him, they are not much different from scrap metal.

"Brother is really a cheerful person." The old man's eyes lit up, and the smile on his face became wider. When he nodded, he didn't even look at the messy fruits and vegetables on the stall. He stretched out his big hand, revealing his calloused palm.

"Two low-grade primordial stones, plus 2000 yuan gold coins, these belong to my little brother." The old man's voice fell, Wang Yan nodded, and after taking out the primordial stones and gold coins, he handed them directly to the old man. The old man was also slightly taken aback.

As for this, Wang Yan didn't care about it. When he lowered his head, he sorted and wiped the messy fruits and vegetables, and slowly tidied them up.

These fruits and vegetables were placed in a mess, and the fruits and vegetables were mixed together. When Wang Yan quickly sorted out the gold coins, the old man quickly checked the gold coins.

"Eh, this is it?" Wang Yan quickly sorted out the messy fruits and vegetables, and suddenly, three bright red fruits the size of walnuts came into view.

"Zhu Guo?" Wang Yan was startled slightly, the fruit in front of his eyes was bright red, inside the thin skin, wrapped in flesh like ice crystals, it was randomly thrown among the fruits and vegetables, and was also divided by Wang Yan, who was tidying up the vegetable stall. Come out, but his brows are slightly wrinkled.

This vermilion fruit is also a medium-grade fruit, with sweet juice and sandy flesh, which contains a faint vitality, which looks no different from other medium-grade fruits and vegetables.

However, although this vermilion fruit is common, it is extremely difficult to grow. It consumes more energy than ordinary middle-grade fruits, and it is difficult to survive. For these reasons, it is quite rare to see vermilion fruit among middle-grade fruits. .

Not only that, after coming out of the eighth floor of the test tower, Wang Yan's understanding of raw materials and grafting techniques are quite proficient, especially the red fruit in front of him, which seems to be similar to other middle-grade fruits, but in Wang Yan's heart It is clear that after some assistance, Zhu Guo in front of him will mysteriously produce a kind of nihilistic spiritual force.

Spiritual power, after Wang Yan experienced the spiritual light cone it condensed today, Wang Yan put it in his heart.

Because of this, when Wang Yan saw these three vermilion fruits, Wang Yan was overjoyed, and immediately put away the other fruits and vegetables, and took out a glass vessel.

This vermilion fruit is peculiar, every time it comes into direct contact with the human body, some of its nutrients will be lost, and the way to store it requires glass vessels to maximize its freshness and efficacy.

Regarding Wang Yan's actions, Huba showed surprise, and the old man was also taken aback, telling him intuitively that the seemingly small young man in front of him seemed to be... not simple, and this expression made the old man instantly I understand, among the bunch of fruits and vegetables, this red fruit is the most expensive just now.

"Looks like it's sold at a loss." The old man muttered to himself, and in front of the booth, after Wang Yan prepared the glazed vessels, he carefully took out the wooden chopsticks and put the vermilion fruits in one by one. .

"Is this vermilion fruit so rare?" The old man asked unwillingly, while Wang Yan nodded with a smile, making the old man frown.

"Hey, middle-grade vermilion fruit." Just as Wang Yan put the vermilion fruit into the glass vessel, a suspicious sound came from beside him, and the next moment, a young man in a white robe appeared in front of him. In front of the booth.

"I didn't expect to see such a high-quality vermilion fruit here." The young man praised again, his appearance was very handsome, he looked like a white-faced scholar, and his thin lips made people know that this white-faced scholar Ordinary young people are not very easy to get along with.

Facing the young man's words, Wang Yan didn't pay any attention to him, he and the old man were clear, when he stretched out his hand at this moment, the young man had a smile on his face, and his eyes fixed on Wang Yan.

"Little brother, can you give me this mid-grade vermilion fruit?" The voice of the young man in white fell, Wang Yan was not moved at all, he reached out and grabbed the glass vessel.

But at this moment, the fan in the white-clothed young man's hand quietly protruded out, and it rested directly on Wang Yan's arm. The slight force from it made Wang Yan's face turn cold instantly.

"Little brother, Song Qian in the lower elixir pavilion, this vermilion fruit is of great use to me. In this way, I will offer ten low-grade primordial stones and give it to me. We can count as friends, how about it?" Then The young man said again, with a smile on his delicate face.

And as his voice fell, Wang Yan's arm shook suddenly, and when a strong force surged out, he flicked the folding fan of the young man in white, and then he put the glass vessel into the storage bag.

"This vermilion fruit is also of great use to me. If you want to buy it, you can go to other stalls to look for it."
