There are a total of eighteen militiamen here, including an elite-level militia captain.

Cao Xing took a quick look and found that these were all first-level creatures and posed no threat to him.

At this moment, one of the militia captains looked at Assam and asked, "This knight... sir..."

"What are you doing in Hoggar Village?"

He mistakenly thought that Asam, riding a Frostwolf, was the leader of the team.

Assam waved his hands and said, "Please talk to my lord."

After hearing this, the militiamen all turned their eyes towards the two people sitting on the back of the crawler robot.

They were instantly attracted by Liu Muxue's beauty and exclaimed, "What a beautiful lady... Is this a noble from the Ice Crystal Kingdom?"

Then, the militiamen turned their gaze to Cao Xing and asked tentatively, "Hey, hey, hey... Lord... may I ask what brings you to our Hog Village?"

Cao Xing replied, "Nothing, I just passed by your village to see if I could buy some supplies or do some business."

Hearing this, the militiamen slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Among them, the militia captain who was about 30 years old stood up.

"My Lord, our Hog Village welcomes wanderers and merchants from all over the world."

"However... I'm afraid you can't bring your mounts and these mechanical creatures into the village... They will scare the villagers..."

As if afraid that Cao Xing would get angry, the militia leader quickly said, "But please rest assured, sir. We will place your mounts in the shed outside the village so that they will not be affected by the wind and snow."

Hearing this, Cao Xing nodded.

"Yes, these are my partners, and they are all very obedient."

The militia captain breathed a sigh of relief, then led Cao Xing and others to a shed nearby.

Although it is only a temporary shelter, it is relatively clean.

Cao Xing nodded and said, "Mu Xue, Asam, Sarah, follow me into the village."

"Andrew, Renéece, please take good care of our partners."

Since he was only going to the village to buy some supplies, he didn't need to bring too many people.

And with Sarah, a Tier 3 leader, here, any danger can be easily resolved.

Renis and Andrew saluted respectfully, "We will obey your orders, Lord."

After thinking for a moment, Cao Xing saw the tree spirits in the corner, "Juliette, you come with us."

Juliette looked confused, but she subconsciously jumped off the excavator's bucket and walked to Cao Xing's side.

Then, the group of five left the shack and headed towards the village.

However, as soon as Sarah came out, she went into hiding. This was her habit, never exposing herself to the public.

Cao Xing didn't care either.

Soon, they entered the village.

[You have entered the neutral zone: Hogg Village]

There are many houses in this village, and every household has a stove.

On the streets, there are many vendors pushing carts, carrying vegetables, wood, coal and other fuels, selling them along the streets.

The villagers looked at Assam in knight armor and Juliette with pale skin with a hint of fear and curiosity.

Cao Xing didn't care but looked at the buildings on both sides of the street.

[Blacksmith Shop Level 2], [Sewing Shop Level 2], [Ore Processing Factory Level 3].

These stores sell basic equipment and simple cold-weather clothing.

However, it is indeed difficult for such a village to produce some skilled blacksmiths or sewing masters.

Cao Xing had no intention of going in. His purpose was to buy a batch of food and then see if he could buy some cows or sheep to raise them himself.

At this time, Liu Muxue tugged at Cao Xing's sleeve and pointed to a corner of a house.

Following the direction Liu Muxue pointed, Cao Xing saw a thin young man wearing a cotton hat, looking at them with a scrutinizing gaze.

Cao Xing took a look at his attributes.

[Hogg Village Villager: Danny lv2]

After thinking for a moment, he took out a coin from his backpack and tossed it in the air.

The guy named Danny seemed to understand something and walked over nervously.

"Sir, may I be of service to you?"

Cao Xing asked, "I want to buy some food and I need you to lead the way for us."

After hearing this, villager Danny's young face showed a hint of adult shrewdness.

These days, those who can afford to buy food are all rich people.

Villager Danny said hurriedly, "Sir, you can go to the grocery store to buy food. I know the owner of the grocery store. If the transaction quantity is large, you can get a discount..."

Cao Xing was happy, this young man was quite capable, he could even hook up with the owner of the grain store.

In great joy, he threw over ten crowns.

Villager Danny took it with joy, and kept thanking him.

Cao Xing asked again at this time: "How long can you use a crown like this?"

Because he was not clear about the prices in this world, Cao Xing wanted to inquire in advance to avoid being ripped off when buying food.

After receiving the money, Danny, a villager, replied happily, "Sir, one crown can buy a piece of black bread in our village, and white bread costs three crowns."

As if he knew what Cao Xing meant, Danny continued, "Sir, according to the price of food in our village."

"For example, unpeeled wheat costs 10 kronor per pound, peeled wheat costs 15 kronor, and ground wheat costs 30 kronor per pound..."

Danny finished speaking and Cao Xing nodded.

It seems that the purchasing power of money in this world is still quite high.

Before Cao Xing left, he had 35,000 kronor in his hand. On the way, he met an unlucky chamber of commerce and picked up more than 40,000 kronor.

All together, it's more than 80,000 kronor.

This is a huge sum of money, which should be enough to buy a lot of food.

Thinking of this, Cao Xing felt more confident.

At this time, villager Danny added: "Sir, the price of these foods is quite affordable, but if you want to enjoy yourself, the cost may be a bit high."

"Any drink at the Zoran Tavern starts at 30 kronor. The prettiest and coziest woman there even charges 400 kronor for a night!"

Hearing the last sentence, Cao Xing's mouth twitched.

Damn, this little guy is young, but he knows a lot.

Juliette and Liu Muxue beside them blushed and turned their heads away, too embarrassed to listen.

"Don't talk nonsense, take us to the grocery store." Cao Xing said speechlessly.

"Yes, sir."

Villager Danny led Cao Xing and three others forward.

As we walked along, we saw various vendors shouting.

"A small detection robot from the Iron Kingdom. It can lead you to find various precious metals. It is a must-have for gold diggers. It only costs 1,800 crowns."

"The Frost Heart Lotus produced in the Borelis Mountains has the effect of improving eyesight and calming the mind. The price is 3,000 crowns."

"A group of snow wolves appeared near the Falling Snow Lake. We are now recruiting five strong men above level one to drive away the snow wolves. Each person will be rewarded 400 crowns."

"Baron Seldan will soon start a knight trial. Warriors who have reached level one or above can sign up to participate in the trial."

"Hoggle Hunter's Hut is buying large quantities of magical creature furs and other materials at great prices."

"Ruth's Tavern needs some materials..."

Amidst the shouting along the way, Cao Xing and the others arrived at the grain store in Hogg Village.

As I opened the door, I instantly felt a warmth coming from inside.

There were stoves burning on both sides of the hut, and the fire was burning brightly, making a crackling sound.

Checked the temperature.

【Current temperature: 7℃】

It’s actually not a negative number anymore. It’s really warm inside the grocery store.

At this moment, a woman who looked to be around 40 years old, with a curvy figure and exuding a mature charm, was lazily lying in front of the counter.

When the mature woman saw Cao Xing and others coming in, her eyes suddenly lit up.

As a businessman with many years of experience, she knew that this was a big business as soon as she saw the attire and outstanding temperament of Cao Xing and others.

"Hey, gentlemen, are you here to buy food?"

"Yes." Cao Xing said directly.

The grocery store owner noticed Danny and knew they knew the price, so she asked, "How many pounds of grain do you want to buy? Do you want it peeled or unpeeled?"

"Little Danny should have told you that if you buy more than 300 kilograms of food, our grocery store can give you a 10% discount~"

Cao Xing thought to himself, a 10% discount is not bad.

If he buys in large quantities, he can save a lot of money.

So Cao Xing asked, "Besides wheat, do you have other food here, such as rice?"

As an Oriental, Cao Xing is more accustomed to eating rice.

After hearing this, the proprietress of the grain store looked at Cao Xing with her narrow red eyes and chuckled, "Of course we have rice, but we don't have much in stock. I can sell it to you at 10 crowns per kilogram."

Cao Xing nodded, having already made up his mind, and said directly: "I want 1,000 kilograms of peeled wheat, 500 kilograms of rice, and 300 kilograms of flour."

As Cao Xing read out the numbers one by one, the joy in the eyes of the grocery store owner became even brighter, and even her breathing became a little rapid.

She almost forgot how long it had been since she had done such a big business!

The proprietress asked tentatively, "Sir, are you sure you really want so much food?"

"Yes."

After getting Cao Xing's personal confirmation, the proprietress's breath suddenly stopped.

When she looked at Cao Xing, she felt a strong liking for him.

Then, the proprietress smiled and said, "Dear guests, let me introduce myself again. My name is Elena Green. Thank you very much for taking care of my business."

After Elena Green finished speaking, she bent down slightly and bowed to Cao Xing, revealing her white chest and a very full cleavage.

Cao Xing didn't have any thoughts, he just nodded lightly.

Danny, a villager standing nearby, swallowed his saliva as he watched.

Elena straightened up again and said seriously, "According to the food that the adults need, the total cost is 35,000 crowns."

"I'll give you a discount of 15%, and then after rounding off the decimals, it will be 29,000 kronor."

After saying this, she looked at Cao Xing with a gentle gaze, "Sir, are you satisfied?"

Cao Xing nodded and said, "Okay, but I don't have a carriage or a horse to pull the goods. Can you sell me one?"

Hearing this, Elena chuckled and said, "No problem, then I'll charge you 30,000 crowns, how about that?"

"make a deal."

Cao Xing agreed readily, then took out a large pile of coins, a total of 30,000 kronor, and handed them to Elena.

When Elena saw so many crowns, the charm in her eyes became even stronger.

Danny, the villager next to him, almost popped his eyes out!

This was the first time in his life that he had seen so much money.

Elena chuckled again and said, "Well, please wait a moment, my dear guests. I will arrange for someone to load your car."

Cao Xing nodded and said, "Okay, let's go around the village and come back to get the food."

"Okay, sir, please rest assured. I will not give you less weight. I promise..."

Elena patted her full chest.

Cao Xing nodded.

Then he took villagers Danny, Assam and others out of the grocery store.

He wasn't worried that Elena would steal his money.

He already had a rough idea of ​​the defense capabilities of [Hog Village].

With the power he possessed now, he was able to flatten this village.

In this world, force is everything.

"Axing, are we going to buy a cow now?" Liu Muxue asked softly.

Cao Xing nodded, "Yes."

Having just spent 30,000 kronor on food, Cao Xing still has about 50,000 kronor in his hand, which should be enough to buy a lot of calves and sheep.

So, Cao Xing asked, "Danny, if I want to buy cattle and sheep in your Hog Village, what procedures do I need to follow?"

Cattle and sheep like these are assets of a village. If outsiders like them want to buy them, they may need to go through some troublesome procedures.

After Cao Xing finished speaking, he took out another ten crowns from his backpack and handed them to Danny.

When Danny saw that it was another 10 crowns, he immediately took it with a smile on his face.

"Sir, there is no need to go through any formalities to buy cattle and sheep. You just need to find the farmers, negotiate the price with them, and then get the approval of the village chief."

"I know several farmers, Jeffrey, Mel, Harden, they all raise a lot of tadpoles, alpine sheep, bighorn cows..."

"If you need it, sir, I can take you there."

Cao Xing nodded and said, "Take us over there to have a look."

"Okay!"

This Danny seemed more enthusiastic.

From the time he came into contact with Cao Xing until now, he has earned 20 kronor, which is almost a week's income for these ordinary villagers!

Led by villager Danny, Cao Xing and his group soon arrived at a three-story building that was more spacious than the other houses.

Boom boom boom!

Danny knocks on the door.

After a while, a voice came from inside, "Who is it?"

"Master Jeffrey, I'm Danny. There are a few adults from outside who want to buy a batch of calves and sheep from you."

There was silence for a moment.

Then the door opened and a middle-aged man with a big beard, wearing loose clothes and without a belt, walked out.

Looking behind him, he saw a woman in her thirties with a high nose, hiding behind the door of the room, sticking her head out and looking at Cao Xing and the others curiously.

The bearded middle-aged man's eyes were also filled with impatience.

The corners of Cao Xing's mouth twitched. It seemed like they came at the wrong time?

"You guys want to buy cattle and sheep?" the bearded middle-aged man said impatiently.

Cao Xing nodded, "Yes."

However, the bearded middle-aged man simply waved his hand and said, "Sorry, we are not doing business today."

This guy just waved his hand and chased people away, as if he was in a hurry to go back and continue fighting.

At this moment, his eyes caught Liu Muxue and Juliet beside her.

Their stunning looks and tall figures immediately attracted the attention of the bearded middle-aged man.

He looked at Liu Muxue and Juliet with an aggressive gaze.

The two girls seemed a little uncomfortable when he looked at them.

At this time, Cao Xing took Liu Muxue and Juliette's hands and pulled them behind him.

Liu Muxue was fine, but Juliette seemed to be holding the hand of a strange man for the first time, and she lowered her head shyly.

Cao Xing smiled and said, "I advise you not to look around, otherwise you might suffer a lot."

There was a hint of threat in his tone.

The bearded man got angry instantly, "What did you say?"
