Until noon, there were hardly any customers. Xu Milu did not give up and put the "drink" made with mulberry fruit on the counter, hoping that passers-by would see the eye-catching color at a glance.
"Oh no! I miscalculated. Who would buy a drink at a breakfast shop?"
Xu Milu sighed deeply, resting her chin on her hand, and began to consider whether to venture deeper into the Food World to find something that could be used as a staple food. She only had less than a thousand yuan left, which wasn't enough to buy much jade.
She was lost in thought when someone actually struck up a conversation with her.
"Auntie, how much are the drinks?"
It was lunchtime when school let out, and two elementary school students in school uniforms stopped and stared intently at the cup of mulberry juice, their eyes filled with longing.
The fruit juice of the mulberry tree has a bright color, so when Xu Milu promoted it, many people rejected it as a beverage with artificial coloring.
"Five yuan a cup, iced, want some?"
Xu Milu took out two glasses of chilled mulberry juice from the refrigerator and gave them two spoons.
Chilled mulberry juice has a texture similar to yogurt, but it looks clear. It tastes cool and refreshing, with a wonderful vanilla jelly-like texture. The moment you put it in your mouth, the sweltering heat disappears instantly.
"Oh, wow! This is delicious, it's jelly!"
The chubby boy scooped up a large spoonful and mumbled to the other boy:
"Wang Xiaodong, this time it's my treat, next time it's your turn to treat."
The chubby boy ate quickly, slurping down his entire serving. He lingered on his spoon, reluctantly saying, "Sister, is there more? Give me two more; I want to take them back to Mom and Dad."
In reality, when there's something delicious, she calls me "sister," even though I was just calling her "auntie."
Despite her complaints, Xu Milu still packed two cups in a plastic bag and reminded them, "If you're not in a hurry to eat them, you can put them in the refrigerator."
The two elementary school students gave the money and skipped away.
Xu Milu thought for a moment, then simply moved a stool, sat down at the shop entrance, opened the plastic box, revealing the bright blue mulberry juice, which immediately attracted many elementary school students.
Nowadays, parents love their children so much that everyone has at least five or ten yuan on them.
Seeing the brightly colored, novel fruit juice, the children swarmed around it, each contributing two yuan and five mao to devour the hundred cups of mulberry juice prepared by Xu Milu.
This can be considered a good start.
Xu Milu was still hesitant to price these extradimensional ingredients too high. Firstly, she couldn't explain their origin, and someone with a keen eye could easily uncover the problem. Secondly, she wanted to test Earth's acceptance of extradimensional food.
Looking at it now, it seems a little easier than she imagined.
...
...
Riding her own electric scooter, Xu Milu, wearing a mask, slowly made her way along the path in the food world.
To save time, Xu Milu fully charged her electric scooter. After collecting a small amount of black needle grass and fire mulberry fruit, she did not choose to return to Earth but instead began a long-distance adventure.
[Remaining stay time: 00:10:12 (Earth time)]
[Equivalent to 01:08:36 hours of stay in the current plane (at this plane)]
After riding for a while, Xu Milu would take off the binoculars around her neck and look into the distance for a while, being very careful.
This was the road she had chosen that was most likely to lead to human habitation. In the distance, it led to the foot of a mountain where there was a large lake, the clear water of which could be seen from a great distance.
Looking into the distance, the lake surface resembles an upside-down, clear mirror placed beneath a snow-capped mountain that is covered in snow all year round; just looking at it is enough to make one yearn for it.
Xu Milu rode her electric scooter, cautiously surveying her surroundings.
The birds she had seen in the photos before seemed to have disappeared, and even the roars of animals were much less frequent.
The black grassland stretches far and wide, with many different varieties of mulberry trees standing in various places. Each mulberry tree is magically spaced about 100 meters apart, neither too close nor too far.
Xu Milu collected a lot of different colored mulberry fruits, planning to make more mulberry fruit jelly to sell.
The electric scooter has a top speed of 25 km/h. Xu Milu traveled in a straight line, and with no wild animals to disturb her, she quickly arrived at the lake.
Xu Milu took off her mask and looked at the lake in front of her with almost astonishment.
This is a lake formed by the snowmelt flowing down from the snow-capped mountain in front of us, which converges in a low-lying area. It is very large, and as far as the eye can see, you can only see the green forest on the opposite bank and the lake shore.
The lake water was crystal clear, and the absence of excessive algae and microorganisms made it different from the greenish-blue lakes that Xu Milu usually saw. It looked more like pure dew that had been condensed.
Many brightly colored fish and palm-sized shrimp roam in the lake, while aquatic plants, as tall as sorghum, grow along its shores, bearing many round, milky-white fruits.
"Is this edible? Aren't they saying that the prettier the food, the more poisonous it is?"
Xu Milu wiped away non-existent drool, still unable to resist reaching into the water to touch the seemingly plump and juicy lobster.
The plump shrimp weren't afraid of strangers at all. They just stood there dumbly, letting Xu Milu pat their fat bodies before slowly swimming away to the dark purple water plants.
The deep purple aquatic plants have thick, lush leaves, resembling mutated purple spinach. Upon closer inspection, you can see many transparent fish swimming among them. These fish are easily overlooked if you don't look closely; they have thick lips and tiny, black sesame-seed-sized eyes, making them look quite adorable.
