Chapter 238 Can she conjure it up? What a show-off!



"You can take it..." That's it.

Having received no food, Red Hair had lost his previous protective instincts, waving his hand dismissively and making casual remarks.

But before he could finish speaking, a sudden thought flashed through his mind: Wait a minute! Why does this woman need so many stones?

What do those people want these stones for?

Red Hair reacted quickly, stopping himself from speaking just in time. He cautiously stared at Li Xin'er.

What do you need these for?

Tong Hui, feeling guilty for stopping Hong Mao earlier, hadn't dared to speak, but he looked up at Li Xin'er with curiosity.

The bearded man seemed to have the same idea as the red-haired man, and he also stared at her, waiting for her answer.

Li Xin'er kept her hands in her pockets, still appearing very casual.

"Before answering this question, you need to answer one of my questions first."

Red Hair rolled up his sleeves and said, "Hey, that's my temper!"

This girl is really stubborn!

This time, the bearded man spoke in a deep voice, "What do you want to ask?"

Although he looked as casual as Li Xin'er, Li Xin'er noticed that he held the large knife in his hand in a defensive posture, and his strong muscles were always in a tense state.

Li Xin'er noticed his vigilance and wariness.

"If your robbery is so 'unprofessional,' why do you even bother robbing?"

Red Hair couldn't help but retort again, "Hey, isn't that obvious? What else am I supposed to eat if not fight over food? Am I supposed to eat zombies?"

He always felt a sense of powerlessness and frustration when facing Li Xin'er, and he always wanted to say something sarcastic.

Li Xin'er rolled her eyes at him and said sarcastically:

"If you can eat zombies, you'll definitely be a hero to humanity."

After saying that, she looked at the bearded man and waited for his reply.

This person definitely understands what she means.

Although they acted fierce and menacing, they couldn't bring themselves to do it. If you told them she was a woman, they would have been soft-hearted and let her go.

But even with the others using daggers, the three men behind them still had their broadswords just for show.

Even after being injured, he only ran away and did not fight back.

The bearded man took the crumpled cigarette from behind his ear and put it in his mouth again.

A slight, mocking smirk played on his lips.

"Isn't it easier to rob than to go outside to find food?"

Li Xin'er knew he wasn't telling the truth, and said bluntly:

"If there's not a single truth in this, there's no point in talking anymore."

She raised her chin again, pointing to the three open bags of crystal cores on the ground.

"I'll take them all, name your terms."

Red Hair exaggeratedly said, "Wow, what a boastful tone."

He can set the conditions; right now he wants to eat braised pork knuckle and stewed goose in an iron pot!

Can she conjure it up? What a load of rubbish!

The bearded man was visibly taken aback. He glanced at the pocket on the ground, then at Li Xin'er, and asked with some suspicion,

"Any conditions are acceptable?"

Li Xin'er nodded patiently. Since there was no story to hear, and the three bags of crystal cores looked to contain six or seven hundred crystal cores, it wouldn't be a bad deal to get them.

The man with the almost invisible, dark face tentatively opened his mouth again.

"I want to eat."

Li Xin'er nodded again, "Okay."

Red Hair blurted out almost immediately, "I want a big pork knuckle!"

Li Xin'er looked at him like he was an idiot, then reached for a clear plastic bag, pulled out a vacuum-sealed pork knuckle, and tossed it into the arms of the red-haired man.

"then."

Red Hair didn't see what it was, but instinctively listened to her and reached out to take it.

When he saw the large pork knuckle he had received, his eyes widened instantly. He looked at the knuckle in disbelief, then at the people around him.

She blinked her already small eyes, wondering if this was just her imagination.

"Boss, pork knuckle?"

He lifted his elbows with both hands and asked the bearded man next to him with suspicion.

The bearded man glanced at the pork knuckle, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"Um."

With the bearded man's affirmative answer, the red-haired man's eyes were filled with excitement. He quickly looked up and continued to Li Xin'er:

"Stewed goose in an iron pot!"

Upon hearing this, Li Xin'er frowned slightly, as she didn't seem to have this item readily available.

After thinking for a while, I found a large iron pot, took out two frozen ducks, and haphazardly put some vegetables into the pot.

He threw it out again, and said coldly:

"There's nothing ready-made, you'll have to make it yourself."

At this moment, in the eyes of the five people, Li Xin'er was like Aladdin's lamp or Doraemon, able to have whatever she wanted!

Looking at the fresh cabbage, potatoes, and ducks... tears of happiness streamed from the corners of his mouth.

Subsequently, his attitude towards Li Xin'er underwent a complete 180-degree turn.

"I was blind to your greatness just now, please don't take it to heart, miss."

As he spoke, he kept pushing the three bags of crystal cores toward Li Xin'er.

"You can have all of these! You can have them all!"

He rubbed his hands together, and with a slightly ingratiating expression, said to Li Xin'er:

"Look... can we use these to trade for some other food with you?"

The dark-faced man beside him couldn't wait to chime in.

"Anything edible will do, it doesn't have to be too good. We want a lot of it, something that can fill our stomachs."

The older man and Tong Hui also looked at Li Xin'er with expectant expressions, their eyes filled with hope.

Li Xin'er didn't answer directly, so Hongmao quickly followed up with an explanation.

"Your share is in here too, we'll exchange ours for yours."

As he spoke, he dumped the pork knuckle and goose, which he had initially treated like treasures, into the large iron pot, and pushed it towards Li Xin'er, intending to return it to her.

"And these too, I can do without these, I'll replace them all with durable ones."
