Chapter 26 The Bustling Shop

But the moment they rushed in, they were shocked by what they saw.

Everything in the shop was something they had never seen before. The room was spacious and bright, and the floor was made of some unknown material that could leave a mark on a person. It was truly beautiful.

And those shelves, piled high with things they had never seen before.

After carefully examining the items on the shelves, everyone gaped in astonishment and rushed towards the shelf area.

"My God, is this flour? How is this flour made? It's so white and clean, there's not a single impurity in it!"

"Yes, yes, and this too, it's actually high-quality grain! Even the grain shops here don't have this kind of high-quality grain."

"Yes, they look so good, all round and plump, so pleasing to the eye, so lovely."

"And this, is this salt? The packaging is so exquisite, it looks so white, and the salt grains look so fine! It's so much better than the salt we have here. Is this the salt supplied to the imperial palace?"

………………

Looking at the items in the store, everyone started talking at once.

The things here were so rare, and they were all refined salt and grains, which dazzled everyone.

Impatient people tried to grab it, but were blocked by an invisible barrier. Everyone was stunned by this sight. This magical spell, Boss Gu, is he a god?

The moment this thought arose, it spread like wildfire, quickly engulfing them. They all began to hypnotize themselves, believing that Boss Gu must be a fairy descended from heaven to save them.

Some quick-witted people had already rushed to the counter and pulled out what they were carrying.

Li Yuan looked at the exchange device on the counter, feeling a bit confused. Just as he was scratching his head, he heard a woman's voice.

"You just need to put the items on the exchanger's tray, and it will automatically convert them into dimensional currency."

Looking in the direction of the voice, Li Yuan saw that it was Boss Gu who was speaking. He nodded and then placed the items he had just taken out onto the tray of the exchange device in front of him.

The moment it was placed inside, a magical scene unfolded before his eyes: the object rapidly shrank, and then the previously dim screen instantly lit up.

One silver hairpin, 60 dimensional coins.

[Three embroidered handkerchiefs, 30 Dimensional Coins]

[Two handmade purses, 40 Dimensional Coins]

After everything was put in, a platinum card automatically popped out from the bottom of the exchange device. Li Yuan curiously pulled out the card, examined it carefully for a moment, and unconsciously uttered the words 'Dimensional Shop'.

Then he saw his name in the lower right corner of the other side of the card, and in the very center of the card was the number he had just exchanged for dimensional currency.

With poor harvests and frequent wars, the family was struggling to make ends meet. His wife and daughter made handkerchiefs and other items at home to supplement their income.

Today, he brought all of this, along with his wife's dowry, to exchange for some money to buy some grain to take back. Unexpectedly, before he even had a chance to go to the pawnshop, he was drawn to this shop.

He had seen all the grains on those shelves; they were all high-quality grains, even better than those sold in grain shops. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but clench the card in his hand.

Although 130 virtual coins are not a lot, the food sold in this virtual shop is not very expensive, much cheaper than that sold in a grain store.

With just 130 dimensional coins, he could buy a large bag of rice, and not only that, he could also buy some refined salt and sugar.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan felt a surge of joy and once again marveled at his good fortune. Luckily, he hadn't gone to the pawnshop first, or he would be crying now.

"This card is for your exclusive use only. Anyone else who gets it won't be able to use it and might even be punished. So you can use it with peace of mind. Just gently touch the card to the machine on the shelf to take your goods."

The shelf will automatically recognize how many items you've taken and deduct the corresponding amount of dimensional currency from your card. Alright, go buy your things now, there are others waiting to exchange their currency!

Gu Xinyan saw him staring at the card without moving and explained, "After all, when this person was redeeming it, those who were originally scattered gradually gathered here."

They had all witnessed the entire process of Li Yuan's exchange, and they couldn't help but rub their hands together, ready to rush forward as soon as Li Yuan left.

To her surprise, the man seemed to be lost in thought, standing there motionless. Gu Xinyan found it amusing and spoke up to remind him.

"Oh? Okay! Thank you, Mr. Gu. I'll go buy the things now."

Coming to his senses, Li Yuan looked at the crowd surrounding him, his dark face flushed red, and after saying something apologetically, he quickly moved aside.

Watching him walk away, Gu Xinyan withdrew her gaze and looked at the group of people scrambling for the exchange devices. Helplessly, she shouted a reprimand:

"Stop fighting, everyone! If you want to buy something, line up and come one by one to redeem it. Otherwise, don't buy anything at all!"

Upon hearing this, the group of people who were arguing about who should redeem the items first immediately fell silent. How could they not buy them? Such good stuff, how could they just not buy it?

Forget it, I won't fight for it anymore. It'll be my turn sooner or later anyway. I can't afford to offend Boss Gu. With that in mind, they all lined up in a long queue.

Seeing this, Gu Xinyan nodded in satisfaction. This orderly queuing would prevent it from becoming a chaotic mess like a vegetable market.

Soon, everyone in line had finished redeeming their cards, and they happily took them and ran off to buy things. This novel shopping experience greatly interested them.

Two people were curious and exchanged cards. Sure enough, when they swiped their cards, there was no reaction; they were still blocked by an invisible barrier.

Surprisingly, a line of large red text appeared on the screen, warning them not to use other people's dimension cards anymore, otherwise they would be punished with electric shocks if they made three mistakes.

Although they didn't know what the electric shock punishment was, they didn't dare to try it again. They sheepishly exchanged their cards back, bought their things, and left.

Seeing this, the other onlookers quickly suppressed their curiosity and obediently went to select their purchases.

Seeing this, Gu Xinyan shook her head with amusement. She really didn't expect these people to be so curious.

However, this noodle shop is quite good; they don't have to worry about people stealing their credit cards.

Even if it's lost, you can get a replacement. The original card disappears the moment you get the replacement. Great! Really great!!
