I became the Martial Saint of the Wasteland

Chapter 17 Chapter 0017: Black Orchid Grain Products Company

Black Orchid Grain Products Company.

A shop selling pre-war food.

They specialize in sourcing sealed foods from pre-war times for scavengers.

Many large supermarkets and food warehouses buried under the rubble still contain a large amount of pre-war food.

Thanks to advanced pre-war preservation techniques, these foods had a long shelf life and generally had low radiation levels.

After acquisition, after simple cleaning and inspection, it can be put on the shelves for sale.

Antebellum food was so popular in the neighborhood that it could even be called a luxury item.

The most popular way to give gifts while walking around the neighborhood is to carry two cans.

Of course, the same pre-war food is also divided into three, six or nine grades here.

Classified according to degree of preservation, degree of radiation contamination and type.

This formed a complete acquisition process and system.

For scavengers, the chance to find some pre-war food can be much more profitable than recycling parts.

In a harsh and precarious environment.

The price people are willing to pay for recreation is unimaginable.

Most of the income earned by those mercenaries was spent on bar girls and food and drink.

Even the looters living outside will use the looted property to purchase [Jet], [Dream Pill] and other drugs with hallucinogenic addictive effects.

Delicious pre-war food was also a popular pastime.

In this depressing world, no one can keep their nerves tight forever.

Holding the storage bag on his waist, Rosen quickly walked into the store of Black Orchid Food Products Company.

There were more than a dozen sets of shelves in the hall, on which were stacked various cans without outer packaging, as well as various portable foods that were popular before the war. Rosen even saw chocolates, candies, instant tea bags and juices.

These luxury goods have been packaged twice, and the surface is covered with an aluminum-plated film.

Everything is extremely expensive.

A piece of chocolate with a marked weight of 10 grams actually requires eight dark crystals.

At this price, you can buy 64 bottles of E-type nutritional mixture.

The Type 12 pistol is roughly equivalent to the price of three pieces of chocolate.

This abnormal price, this abnormal world.

In addition to pre-war foods, nutritional supplements ranging from Type A to Type E are also sold here.

It is said that type A nutritional mixture can taste the sweet taste of fruits.

But its price is as high as five points of Dark Crystal per stick, which is also not something that the lower-class residents of the wasteland would consider.

There are not many people in the store currently.

When Rosen walked in, he was immediately greeted by a slim female clerk wearing a blue jumpsuit.

The astonishing girth made the bosom of the jumpsuit bulge.

There is a professional smile on her beautiful face.

With perfect genetic optimization technology, handsome men and beautiful women are not uncommon in the wasteland.

If Rosen was willing, it would only take dozens of energy units of dark crystal to give him a different face.

When the female clerk saw Rosen's dress, she immediately understood his purpose.

"Are you going to ship it?"

Rosen nodded slightly.

"Please follow me to the trading room."

The female clerk said with a smile.

She knew exactly what these cautious scavengers were thinking.

Therefore, Black Orchid Grain Products has a process dedicated to acquisitions.

While giving these scavengers a sufficient sense of security, we also try to improve the company's reputation as much as possible.

They can still tell the difference between a full meal and a full meal.

Rosen followed the clerk into the relatively private trading room.

Lamp tubes filled with inert gases such as argon and neon emit a cool, light blue light.

Sitting on the sofa in the trading room, Rosen took off the storage bag from his waist.

I took out several packages of tin-sealed biscuits, four boxes of milk powder and twelve cans of beef.

The canning technology in the other world is still relatively primitive.

The packaging is made of tin cans that are easy to rust.

However, the high-temperature and high-pressure process is basically guaranteed.

The shelf life of these cans is generally about 2 years, and milk powder can be stored for more than 5 years if unopened.

As for those tin-sealed biscuits, they have the shortest shelf life but the best taste.

The rich buttery aroma and ample sugar content are enough to make any Wastelanders salivate.

“Are these the foods you want to sell?”

The female clerk looked at the bottles and cans placed on the table with interest.

Retro, too retro.

She had only seen the tin boxes and tin cans in front of her in documentaries broadcast in virtual reality.

At the very least, it is a craft from two to three hundred years ago.

Tin cans are prone to rust, and as aluminum-making techniques improve, they are quickly replaced by aluminum cans with more stable properties.

Then there are more advanced processes such as aluminum-plastic coating.

Tin cans like this are indeed objects that only exist in history.

“Look at the goods, not the craftsmanship.”

Rosen frowned, he didn't want to talk about craftsmanship.

Hearing his words, the female clerk showed an intriguing smile.

"Okay, customers come first."

Get out the can opener and handheld tester.

The goods brought by Rosen were sampled and tested respectively.

Soon, when the test results came out, the female clerk suddenly had a strange look on her face.

"Very low radiation value."

“Although the craftsmanship is primitive, the quality of the cans is excellent.”

This situation was completely beyond her expectation.

Could it be that the guy in front of me has found a small ecological circle that has not been destroyed yet?

That was the most likely scenario she could think of.

In the past, there were many lucky people who had similar encounters. After all, the wasteland was so vast that it was full of surprises.

See through, don’t tell.

She gave the goods a good price.

Canned beef costs 11 dark crystals each, milk powder costs 23 dark crystals per box, and biscuits cost 10 dark crystals per pack. A total of 284 dark crystals.

After a happy checkout.

The female clerk left a business card.

"Sir, if there are still goods in the future, you can come to our Black Orchid at any time. My personal communication code is on it."

Regional communications have been popularized in the Golden Sunshine neighborhood, but the scope is limited to the neighborhood.

This is not easy in a wasteland full of electromagnetic pulse interference.

After accepting the business card and Dark Crystal, Rosen nodded.

"Will do."

Black Orchid Grain Products Company has a pretty good reputation and is suitable for early sales to accumulate capital.

With the opponent's size, thousands or even tens of thousands of dark crystals can be eaten.

And the more, the merrier.

But when it came time to deal with him later, he would have to make up a suitable reason and identity.

At the same time, he also had to use the funds on hand to strengthen himself.

Only strength is the best bargaining chip.

His hands were always stuffed into the storage bag containing the Dark Crystal.

As soon as he walked out of the black orchid, he activated [Consciousness Space] to put it away, leaving only fifteen energy units of Dark Crystal nearby.

Walking quickly on the street, he was going to go to the armed market.

As soon as he walked out of the street where Black Orchid was, he suddenly frowned.
