Chapter 396 Buying groceries

The cat demons held a "tea party" and enjoyed this rare quietness.

This welfare event caused most players to run to Rongyu City, and there were no longer those people jumping around or walking with various skills on the streets of Chang'an City.

Song Bozheng, who had just passed by the sand pit and greeted the three cat demons with a smile, was walking on the street which was considered lively in other towns but actually had fewer people. He felt a little uncomfortable.

He heard the news and chose to go out to buy groceries today.

As an introvert who doesn't like crowds, Song Bozheng always buys enough food for a week at a time and stores it in the refrigerator to eat slowly.

He lived very close to the downtown area of ​​Chang'an City. Just turn onto the road that leads to the Sand Sculpture Hotel and then turn another alley and you'll arrive.

The four streets in the shape of a Chinese character "口" are the most prosperous and lively places in Chang'an City. Because many lanterns carved from calcite were built around the four streets, it is also called "Lantern Market". Going east from Lantern Market, you will reach the famous "Night Market Street" outside Chang'an City.

Although the "Night Market Street" is not within the security area of ​​Chang'an City, everyone has always assumed that it is under the jurisdiction of Chang'an City, so the environment is no different from that of the inner city. There are rows of street lamps carved from calcite on both sides of the newly paved cement road. The shops on both sides of the road are much more diverse than those in Chang'an City. Many cultivators and independent cultivators from other sects do not want to pay taxes, so they rent a piece of land here, build their own shops, and sell things.

In other words, this street has also become the most famous "duty-free street" under the name of Taiyin Sect.

However, most of the things sold on the street were spiritual materials, or the renovated old shops opened by players, such as Yaya Milk Tea, Dachangge BBQ, etc. The shops for daily grocery shopping, like the ones Song Bo normally went to, were the ones opened in Chang'an City and Dengshikou.

The largest one is the "Shennong Factory Fruit and Vegetable Garden", which sells fruits and vegetables at low prices and in large quantities.

But Song Bozheng prefers another one called "Zhonghuajia Fruit and Vegetable Market", which often sells the latest fruits and vegetables on the market first. In addition, although it is a bit expensive, the quality is guaranteed.

In addition, there is the "Friends of the Toilet" which only sells various fruits and the "One Dig and One Sack" which specializes in potatoes. These two store names are obviously opened by disciples of the Taiyin Sect. Song Bozheng doesn't go there often. Many of those Taiyin Sect disciples are like dog-skin plasters. As long as you are a little bit nice to them, they will feel that they are treated differently and start following them around to ask for tasks and favorability. It's very annoying. So unless he is working with players as customers, Song Bozheng always stays away from most stores opened by players.

"What is this? A newly bred variety?"

Song Bozheng pointed at a box of small pink fruits packed in a paper box with an isolation array pattern painted on it and asked the clerk curiously.

The paper box was folded very delicately. When he picked up the box, he was surprised to find that it was heavier than he had imagined. After observing it carefully, he found that there was a transparent glass box between the fruit wrapped in the paper box and the paper box!

This transparent glass box alone is worth a lot of money!

Although Longshan Glass Factory shipped out several batches of goods half a week ago, making glass no longer an expensive item in this world, glass is still in short supply. Even the goods ordered from Fu Lu Shou Chamber of Commerce have to wait!

Even the packaging is so luxurious, so this box of pink fruits must be worth a lot of money! ?

Thinking of this, Song Bozheng also asked this question.

The clerk who had recognized Song Bozheng nodded and said, "That's right! We just got a box of new products today, which adds up to 20 boxes! One box costs 300 yuan!"

At this point, the clerk even took a breath and complained in a low voice: "Oh my god, I don't know who can afford it!"

Song Bozheng, who made a lot of money as a weapon refiner, was also shocked by the price and asked, "Why is this thing so expensive?"

"I heard it was shipped from the Arctic Ocean! We can't grow it here! It's called 'Blood Rose Fruit'! It's said to be incredibly delicious!" The clerk introduced, "And it seems to be a very precious spiritual material! It has the effect of calming the mind and strengthening the soul, and it can also drive away evil spirits! But the research institute is studying how to grow it in batches, so they should have some ideas, otherwise they wouldn't have sent a box to sell today! Maybe they will have a large supply in a while, and then it will probably be much cheaper!"

"Calm your mind and solidify your soul!?"

Song Bozheng was really shocked this time.

In the value system of Guixu Realm, consciousness and soul are the most important existences, especially the soul.

In other words, the soul has always been considered the "essence" of the creatures in the Guixu world.

When the physical body dies, it can be reborn into another body, but when the soul dissipates, it disappears completely.

Therefore, everything related to the soul or that can affect the soul is extremely expensive.

If there really are elixirs that can calm the mind and strengthen the soul, they are all high-level panaceas. The market price is not only two hundred, but you may not even be able to buy them at two thousand!

The reason why these things are in great demand in the market is that many cultivators often have to go through heavenly tribulations when they advance, commonly known as "crossing the tribulation". The thunder of the cross-tribulations is not an ordinary thunder. If it is not handled properly, it will kill the cultivator's soul!

Therefore, when many cultivators sense that they are about to undergo a tribulation, they will make as much preparation as possible before the tribulation. Purchasing a large number of elixirs and rare treasures that can calm the mind and strengthen the soul is one of them.

If this "blood rose fruit" really has such an effect, two hundred yuan is not expensive, it may even be a great bargain!

Thinking of this, Song Bozheng became confused again: "Why didn't you send it to an auction market? Wouldn't it be sold at a higher price that way?"

"That's what I was thinking!" The clerk didn't seem to know much, and only showed off his own guesses: "Maybe it's because this thing is mediocre, so no one buys it as a spiritual material? Oh! Or maybe our boss is stupid! I just don't think he's very smart!"

"Hehe, then I'll buy a box and try it!"

As Song Bozheng was speaking, he carefully took the box of blood roses and put them into the straw basket provided for temporary use in the market.

The clerk was so amazed that he said sourly, "Wow! You are so rich! I wish I could fly around like you monks and make a lot of money just by using magic!"

"Haha, you can also go to school to learn. It's not difficult to get started. My spiritual roots are not very good."

Song Bozheng was talking casually while picking various fruits and vegetables.

The clerk sighed and said, "How is that possible? It's difficult for people like us who are naturally disabled! But the Queen Mother Taiyin is so powerful, maybe she can create a magic pill that can make people grow spiritual roots!"

Song Bozheng was about to say something comforting, "I'm actually a person with a missing body." After hearing what that person said, he swallowed it back and just agreed, "Who knows!"
