Because of the unique geographical location, there are many people setting up stalls at Anjia Market, so Ye Ning and her group's arrival did not initially attract anyone's attention.
Until Ye Ning emptied everything out of the burlap sack.
The crisp, fresh cucumbers were a vibrant green, the tomatoes were perfectly round, and the cabbages were enormous, like pieces of white jade…
Good heavens! It's fresh fruits and vegetables.
Many people who hadn't eaten fruits and vegetables for months immediately crowded the place.
"Miss, how much are the cucumbers? How about I trade you a pack of instant noodles for a pound?" an old lady who looked shrewd asked.
A pack of instant noodles for a pound? Are you kidding me? This old woman thinks it's the end of the world!
"Not for sale!" Ye Ning said without looking up.
"A pack of instant noodles is worth a pound? What are you thinking, old lady? You can't take advantage like that. How about I offer you a pack of instant noodles and a single strand of noodles, young lady?" a middle-aged man asked with a fawning expression.
"Go away, what business is it of yours?" The old woman pushed her way in, not to be outdone.
“These are difficult times, you can’t ask for an exorbitant price! Look how old I am, can’t you sell it to me for a little? I’m not taking it for free. These young people nowadays! They really don’t know how to respect the elderly and care for the young anymore!” The old woman said, shaking her head with a pained expression.
While observing Ye Ning's reaction, she reached out towards the cucumber.
Who knew that the cucumber, which was almost in my hands, would suddenly be moved away.
"Sorry, I'm not selling! What's this about respecting the elderly and caring for the young? I've never heard of that before!" Ye Ning snatched the cucumber away without any politeness.
"If you want to buy, then take out the supplies properly. Don't try to morally blackmail me," Ye Ninghao said bluntly.
"We're not related, why should I sell you supplies cheaply? If you can't afford it, then please leave and stop interfering with my business!" Ye Ning directly told him to get out.
"How dare you talk like that, young lady? What do you mean by 'can't afford it'?" The old woman's eyes darted around. Since the girl refused to sell, she might as well ruin her business.
These fruits and vegetables can't be stored for long, so if they can't be sold, she'll try to buy them at a low price.
It's true that you can always run into such bizarre and speechless people, no matter when.
This old woman saw that the people who came were a young couple, so she wanted to fool Ye Ning and her companions and take the opportunity to steal their supplies.
There are always plenty of people who want to get something for nothing.
Unfortunately, such people are utterly helpless in the face of absolute power.
Just as the old woman was rambling on, a dark gun barrel was pressed against her forehead.
"Say it again, and you'll die!" I originally wanted to hide my strength, but there are always clowns jumping around, so I might as well stop pretending.
"Young man, what are you doing? Please don't get agitated!" The old woman was so frightened she almost wet her pants.
"If you dare cause trouble again, I won't be polite to you! This is your last chance, get out!" Xiao Jingchen exuded a chilling murderous aura.
"I'm leaving, I'm leaving right now! Young man, don't be impulsive!" The old woman scrambled away from Yan Ning and the others' stall.
Xiao Jingchen coldly put away his gun.
"If anyone dares to cause trouble again, I will not give them another chance!"
Upon hearing this, everyone quickly filed away.
Xiao Jingchen knew clearly that these people would not be his buyers, because what he needed was not instant noodles, which were dispensable to him, but other scarce resources.
Soon, the first real customer arrived.
The person who arrived was wearing a camel-colored trench coat, gold-rimmed glasses, and a long cashmere scarf around his neck; he looked very refined.
"Miss, may I ask how you exchange your fruits and vegetables? If I want to take them all, what do I need to give in return?" he asked bluntly.
He had been observing them for a while and felt that these two people's behavior was not that of ordinary people.
In an era of scarcity, how did they manage to obtain fresh fruits and vegetables? Perhaps they had special channels for sourcing them.
"Our exchange is not based on what we need, but on what you can give us."
This refined-looking middle-aged man took out two boxes of instant noodles from his sleeve, indicating that he was also a user of the supernatural space.
"If that's all, then please take it back!" Ye Ning realized that the middle-aged man was testing them.
Ye Ning already had tens of thousands of boxes of instant noodles stored in her space. If her goal was just one or two boxes of instant noodles, she wouldn't have needed to make this trip at all.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, then took out a small porcelain bottle from his space and slowly poured out a small, glowing white pill.
"This is... an energy pill?" Ye Ning looked at the small white pill in the middle-aged man's hand with some surprise.
“That’s right!” The middle-aged man was also surprised that Ye Ning could recognize the energy pill so quickly.
"Although you recognize the energy pills, you can naturally understand their preciousness."
Ye Ning certainly knew this; even in the age of superpowers, energy pills were still something many superpowered individuals sought after.
"My name is Wang Heng. This energy pill of mine comes from Xinyuan Group. It is a sample they have just extracted."
Wang Heng, it was him! Wang Heng used to be a well-known figure in City A. On the surface, he ran the largest auction house in City A, and there were also rumors that he was the controller of the black market in City A. In short, he was not a simple person.
