After ten years of being raised by beastmen, Jiang Mian transmigrated back to an era where humans raised beastmen. Humans keeping beastmen as pets had become a trend, with beastmen holding extremel...
Chapter 47 Department Store
"Have you forgotten the rules I told you?" Jiang Mian's eyes flickered as he spoke, "I won't hit you again."
Jiang Mian felt that the previous easing of the relationship was only because no one reminded them that the relationship between them was still that of master and slave.
Now the scene just now reminded them that they were now in an unequal relationship.
Jiang Mian can control their brain chips, which means he can control their life and death.
It also seemed to remind Jiang Mian that each of these five orcs had power in their hands, and if she was not bound by the chip, they could easily kill her.
For a moment, everyone had their own thoughts.
"Oh, right, the rules." Chi Lin just chuckled, and soon turned his eyes to look at Jiang Mian, his mountain-green eyes looking at her quietly, "Sister, do you think I can get the status of a free orc?"
Jiang Mian blinked, glanced at him, then looked away, saying, "Let's talk about it later."
She felt that he still seemed to want to kill her.
Let’s talk about it later.
The houses in the main city are close to each other, and the alleys are interconnected. It feels like you walk through a cross alley and then there is another cross at the next one. The ground is always wet, and outside the light shield is a gray sky. The sky of the entire Exile Star always looks gloomy.
But its temperature is not like that, it is scorching hot during the day and cold at night.
As he walked along, Jiang Mian discovered that there were no markets or shopping malls here. If someone wanted to open a store, they would just hang a sign at their door. It looked like a store that produced three-no products.
Moreover, the shops are scattered and some businesses may not even be run.
"Rong Fei, let's go over there and take a look." Jiang Mian saw more than a dozen people queuing outside an iron gate, which was considered a lot of people. Next to the door of that family's house was a wooden sign with the three crooked words "Department Store" written on it. So many people queuing proved that the things sold here must be good.
Jiang Mian subconsciously grabbed Rong Fei's hand and walked over.
She pulled Rong Fei and walked quickly over, wanting to go to the extremely simple department store to see if there were any necessities for sale.
Chi Lin, who was not far behind, slowed down his pace and just watched Jiang Mian completely ignore him, pulling the lizard orc past him and walking away. His eyes were fixed on Jiang Mian's hand holding Rong Fei.
The two figures slowly walked away, as if they had forgotten him.
At the entrance of the damp alley, a tall young man stood there dejectedly, wearing a dark blue shirt and straight black trousers. His dark blue head drooped slightly, and the dark blue hair on his forehead half covered his eyes.
A feeling of discomfort and jealousy filled his heart, filled with a sour and dense pain.
The mountain-green eyes were like green mountains covered with a layer of sunset glow, with a slight red glow, and traces of blood were overflowing from the whites of the eyes, and the eyes were slightly fishy and cold.
Jiang Mian, you win.
If you can love me, I can accept being tamed by you.
Chi Lin laughed at himself and hurried to catch up with Jiang Mian.
There was an open iron gate with more than a dozen people lined up, both men and women.
Jiang Mian then lined up. He didn't expect that he had to queue up to buy groceries. It was really a novel experience.
After a while, Jiang Mian saw a man walking out, followed by a rabbit girl.
She didn't take it seriously at first, until she saw the woman who had just lined up alone. There were no orcs behind her before she went in, but when she came out, she was followed by a wolf boy.
Jiang Mian realized belatedly that the department store sold here was different from the one she had imagined!
"This shouldn't be the department store that Mianmian wants to go to." Rong Fei behind her also spoke softly.
Jiang Mian's mouth twitched slightly, and he nodded: "That's right."
After she finished speaking, she quickly pulled Rong Fei away.
Didn’t expect that buying and selling orcs would be so popular?
"Why are there so many people buying and selling orcs? People on Exile Star shouldn't be equally wealthy." Jiang Mian asked in confusion.
People can't even support themselves, so why would they raise orcs?
"It should not be buying and selling orcs, but leasing orcs." Rong Fei spoke calmly, without any extra expression on his face, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing.
When Jiang Mian heard this, he was slightly stunned and said, "Is that so."
Rong Fei glanced at her lightly and didn't say much.
After a while, Jiang Mian realized belatedly that it was too quiet.
Where is that guy Chi Lin?
Jiang Mian stopped, turned around, and saw Chi Lin not far away.
Chi Lin just stood there, and it seemed that Jiang Mian finally remembered him, so he slowly walked towards Jiang Mian.
"Sister, you finally realized I was lost." Chi Lin slowly walked towards Jiang Mian with a smile on his face, "Thirteen minutes and fifty-two seconds."
He stopped in front of Jiang Mian, bent down slightly, looked down at her, and chuckled: "Next time, can you find out that you've abandoned me earlier? Less one second, or less one minute?"
Jiang Mian:......
Didn't he get lost by himself? How did it become that she lost him?
"Let's go and see where we can find some groceries." Jiang Mian just said this lightly.
As she said this, she turned around and planned to continue shopping.
The next second, her wrist was held by Chi Lin, and her gentle voice came from behind: "Sister, I just asked for you, there is someone selling the groceries you want at the entrance of Lane 15."
Jiang Mian paused, turned around and nodded: "Let's go."
She was about to pull her hand out of Chi Lin's palm, but Chi Lin took her hand and walked forward, his voice soft and slow: "I'll take my sister there."
If she doesn't take the initiative to hold his hand, then he should take the initiative to hold her hand.
Jiang Mian paused, then followed Chi Lin to the entrance of Lane 15.
When they arrived at their destination, Chi Lin let go of Jiang Mian's hand.
It's rare to find a grocery store hidden in such a remote place.
But now there are fewer resources, and it is people who are looking for stores instead of stores looking for customers. I guess you can understand that, right?
"Sister, come in." Chi Lin pushed open the door, then stood at the door and looked at Jiang Mian, waiting for Jiang Mian to come over.
Jiang Mian also walked in, and Rong Fei followed behind her.
This is really an ordinary living room, with no counter and no goods.
It doesn't look like a shop, but more like a residence.
But the shops here are all like this, they can be open or not, is that understandable?
A young orc came down from the stairs quickly.
"What do you want to buy?" The orc said with a smile, "Just tell me what you want, and I'll get it straight from the hub."
Jiang Mian paused and asked, "Can I buy anything?"
The young orc patted his chest and said, "Of course. If you want the stars in the sky, I'll ask someone to pick them for you."
Jiang Mian:......
She coughed lightly and said what she wanted: "Seven sets of brand new quilts, mattresses, and mats..."
