Chapter 859 Who can bear this?
Except for the inventory before the end of the world, the furs now are all dry and dull, unlike the goods Jingshu brought out, so many people are actively making offers, and many people are even willing to buy at a premium.
Unfortunately, Jingshu didn't find anyone she liked.
Until a man appeared carrying a sack.
"Hello, you should try our Yizhihua specialty: water chestnuts mutated from dark matter. Eating them regularly has unexpected benefits for your body... I want to replace all your fur. There are many elderly people in my family who are increasingly afraid of cold. Your fur is just the right one to keep you warm." The slightly fat man with a stubble, who was obviously not a detail-oriented man, smiled and handed over the plain sack.
He is Chen Xuehao, who developed the mutant water chestnut. In just a few years, he transformed himself from an ordinary farmer into the boss of Yizhihua's largest luxury agricultural product. Although he is still so simple and unpretentious, many people around him still look at him with respect. After becoming rich, this man did not forget his roots. He tied his industry together with Yizhihua, driving many industries of Yizhihua and even the trade fair.
After all, many people come here for the local specialty, water chestnuts.
Jingshu picked one at random and thought to herself, water chestnuts? I seem to have eaten them before, but I have no impression of them. After all, this thing is not popular in Wucheng. Actually, the taste is okay.
Unexpectedly, this was a delicious food that Jingshu had rarely eaten that was mutated from a dark species. It was a big black lump, much larger than ordinary water chestnuts, about the size of a fist. The mutated black skin could be easily peeled off, and underneath was white and crispy flesh. When you took a bite, it was sweet, crisp and delicious, with a long-lasting mellow flavor and a very novel taste.
Delicious! Jingshu’s eyes lit up.
I heard that it has a different taste when boiled or fried, and there are many ways to cook it.
The crunching sound made Zhao Qian's throat secrete saliva continuously. Unfortunately, she couldn't afford it. She couldn't afford such an expensive luxury item even after working for several months. She cried bitterly. The boss was so arrogant that he gave it to her as a gift.
Zhao Qian had to introduce it to distract attention, saying that this mutant water chestnut is only available in the country. It has a special geographical environment, a unique cultivation method with the addition of dark elements, and decades of breeding experience. However, the output is still not high now, and one water chestnut is more expensive than several months' salary for a regular worker.
"One is estimated to be worth 1,000 virtual coins, which is about 100 grams. Its true value lies in its mutant nature. It's a tonic and can directly boost a person's immune system. It's suitable for the elderly, the weak, and the disabled. Experiments have proven that if consumed within three days of illness, all but the most severe illnesses can be cured. However... these kinds of medical supplements aren't usually sold for virtual coins; they're usually bartered."
This is almost as expensive as sugar. Just how long does a pound of sugar last? And it's even more expensive than the blood mushrooms Jingshu ordered for takeout back then. But that's understandable, considering blood mushrooms have longevity-boosting properties, and this effect is even slightly stronger.
Jingshu nodded. Among the dark agricultural and sideline products, this is considered very expensive. However, after all, things are valuable because they are rare. It is the only one of its kind in the country. In addition, given its functions, it is normal for the price to be high.
"It's delicious." Jingshu said truthfully.
Chen Xuehao laughed, revealing his simple yellow teeth. "I like your honesty. Unlike others who deliberately find faults to lower the price, I am willing to buy all your furs at a 50% premium and pay the premium tax. Both parties will pay their own transaction tax. How about it?"
Everyone around gasped. Such a high premium?
Originally 3 pieces were needed to exchange for leather gloves, but now 4.5 pieces are needed.
"As expected of Boss Chen, he's so generous."
"Hey, Boss Chen has come out and bought everything. Looks like there's nothing left for us to do."
"Why don't the big bosses from other places take action?"
"Didn't you see what Boss Zhang and Boss Li are wearing? They don't need this kind of leather at all. Boss Chen, who just made his fortune, doesn't have a very deep background, so he needs it."
"That's right. Boss Chen has been close to the Securities Corruption Association in recent years and has made a lot of money, so he's very generous."
"Those water chestnuts are good stuff. Boss Chen wouldn't pay a premium for them, right?"
Chen Xuehao disdains the opinions of the people around him. This skin is a good thing. He has cultivated water chestnuts for several years, and only dark mutants
Only dark mutant species have unique smells, and these skins also have them. He just touched them with his own hands and felt them more and more certain. If he guessed correctly, these skins are also dark mutant species. Ordinary people may not know what dark mutant species mean, but he knows.
Therefore, you will never lose out if you buy at a premium.
Jingshu nodded and didn't say anything. Even if you pay a premium, it's only enough for Jiang Jiang. After all, this is a product of our space. The other party is generous, and she is not stingy either. She quickly agreed. She also took out some skins and directly collected two sacks of dark mutant water chestnuts. She will put them in the space to plant and see if she can get any. She can't sell them, so she will just try them for her family.
Chen Xuehao accepted all the clothes with a smile, and even told Jingshu that she could take as many as she wanted so that her family could change them. Not only that, the two of them also exchanged contact information.
The people around them all looked at them strangely. Will these two have some unspeakable PY transactions in the future?
It was said that they usually sold it by the piece, but now they sold it by the bag. No one knew how much money the two parties traded for, but the transaction tax alone required each of them to pay more than 100,000 virtual coins, so it was clear that this was a considerable transaction.
Zhao Qian's baby fat face has gradually become numb. She may not earn this much money even if she works for her entire life.
The shelves were cleared, finally revealing rows of inconspicuous-looking cigarettes. Wanzi held the black water chestnuts in his hand, gnawing on the skin and then the flesh bit by bit. Hao Yunlai took out a Wucheng brand cigarette, lit it, and slowly blew out smoke rings. He felt a little melancholy. He couldn't eat for free, so he would have to work overtime for Jingzi when he got home.
This time, we need to exchange more supplies and bring them back to give all the brothers a good meal!
Zhao Qian saw it and thought it was a sin. She also wanted to taste what it tasted like, and her saliva started to flow again.
The smoke quickly filled the air at the trade fair and lingered for a long time, arousing the cravings of smokers in the crowd who smelled it, and even the old smokers cracked on the spot.
Who can bear this?
They immediately went up to ask how the cigarettes were sold and how they were traded, and urged the price-setter to quickly set a price so they could trade quickly and have a quick puff of cigarette!
Damn it, I had already given up, and suddenly this thing comes out!
Of course, luxury cigarettes are produced in the end times, but the output is pitifully small. Except for the real wealthy families, basically all smokers are forced to quit smoking.
Another thing is that the government no longer grows tobacco. Except for people like Jing Ye who have the conditions to grow tobacco at home and roll some dry tobacco, and even have the conditions to smoke meat, make some private money by taking out, and the rich make some cigars themselves, other channels are very few. There are people who want to make a fortune by growing tobacco, but unfortunately they don’t have the capital to do so.
Zhao Qian was stunned.
