Chapter 1136 The City Where the Sun Never Sets 6
As time went by, more and more people appeared on the road.
Fu Anan approached the meat stall.
Here, all kinds of meat are placed randomly on the stalls. Because the weather is too hot, the meat has a strong fishy smell and attracts green-eyed flies.
The locals are very accustomed to this. People will pick up the beef or meat of unknown animals on the stalls, smell it, and quickly wrap the meat to make sure it is not spoiled.
Fu Anan watched from the side, then bought a few big steamed buns not far away, and then went to fetch water from the water source mentioned by the accommodation owner.
Every Gobi desert with people living in it has at least one underground water source. The water sources here are strictly controlled by the locals, and anyone who wants to get water must pay.
Fu Anan asked about the price and learned that one small piece of gold could buy ten buckets of water.
Some are already prepared, while others require you to use a bucket to make them yourself.
Thinking that it was getting late, Fu Anan only bought a bucket of water, and the unused gold was replaced with gold sand with more impurities.
Perhaps it was because Fu Anan fought too hard in the two tough battles, whether buying steamed buns or water, they were all at normal prices, and he basically didn't encounter any big scams.
Therefore, it is very important to be tough from the very beginning, which directly saved her a lot of trouble.
The wind began to blow in the Gobi Desert in the evening.
Fine sand was blown up and blew to the place where people lived, and the whole place looked as if it was covered with a layer of yellow gauze.
Fu Anan carried the things she bought, big and small bags, back to her accommodation. The proprietress was still counting on the abacus at the door, and it was suspected that she had not moved at all.
"I'm back."
The boss glanced at her, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes when he found that she could actually bring something back. Then he said lightly, "You can use the kitchen outside for free, but you have to pay for the firewood."
"oh."
Fu Anan responded when she heard this. She bought a big steamed bun and didn’t need to make it herself.
But a small bunch of grapes and a small piece of cantaloupe on the boss's table caught her attention. She had finished browsing the market that afternoon and had never seen these things before. "Boss, where did you buy this fruit?"
"The caravan was specially brought from Pangtong."
The boss looked at Fu Anan and said, "One golden bean can only buy six bunches of grapes and four cantaloupes. Do you want them?"
Everything costs money, and the prices in the Gobi Desert are ridiculously high.
"Can."
Fu Anan thought for a moment and finally agreed. "I want 18 bunches of grapes and 12 cantaloupes."
"Three golds in total, paid in advance. The other items aren't mine, so I'll take a commission of two bunches of grapes and a cantaloupe."
The boss turned his palm upwards and asked for it.
“…Alright.”
Fu Anan gave it quite quickly, while silently thinking in his heart whether he could do some hunting somewhere.
The boss weighed the gold in his hand, then put it in his bag. "The next caravan will arrive in three days, and the goods must arrive by then."
Without telling me that the product is out of stock, I just go straight to pre-sale.
Fu Anan clicked her tongue when she heard this, suspecting that her two fingers were broken because of doing shady business.
After all, the monk can run away from this place, but the temple cannot. Fu Anan accepted it reluctantly and then carried his things back to his room.
Carefully calculate what you have gained today and how much money you have spent.
She brought 40 steamed buns, a bucket of water, and some special desert fruits, and also exchanged some less pure gold sand for them. She spent five gold coins on rent, food, and other miscellaneous items.
