Valley Store
I didn’t expect to meet Hu Mifeng here!
He was squeezed in the bustling crowd who were anxious to see the properties of "honey cake". In the narrow shop, he finally managed to get through the crowd and stand in front of Ye Miaomiao.
This way, they were far away from the signature cakes of the Xishan Valley store, but Hu Mifeng did not show any regret on his face.
"That's too expensive! 200 points for 100g!" He held up two fingers and exclaimed, "They say honey cake is the most powerful food in the early stages, but it's not that expensive. Besides the honey... there's also butter and flour..."
As Hu Mifeng was talking, he suddenly realized that the materials seemed quite rare. If he hadn't gathered all the materials in the Hungry Hungry Territory, he wouldn't have been able to sell them to him for just 15 points each.
Hu Mifeng laughed foolishly and asked, "Lord Ye, are you buying it too?"
Who would complain that they have too many things?
Ye Miaomiao wished her warehouse was completely filled with honey bread, but... 200 points was too expensive. She turned her gaze to the side shelf and said, "I'm planning to buy some honey as raw material."
However, as soon as he turned his eyes away, Ye Miaomiao exclaimed, "Huh?"
It's because the color of this honey is very transparent and bright, and the color is very light, which is completely different from the honey Ye Miaomiao got from Hu Mifeng.
The label read "Mixed Honey." When Ye Miaomiao wanted to check the specific properties, she saw a message pop up on the screen: [The store has been set to unavailable for viewing.]
Does this make sense? What if it's not honey?
Ye Miaomiao's question was answered the next second. At the bottom of the screen, there was a line of small print: [Product name must match the product description, otherwise a fine will be imposed.]
Ye Miaomiao: "..." This is honey, yes, it's just blended. Who knows if the content is 1% or 99%?
Ye Miaomiao walked around the store again and found that this was the only type of honey they had. The rest were honey-related products, such as honey yams and honey chicken wings.
Except for the "Millennium Honey Cake" in the center, which displays attributes, no other products have any attributes displayed.
Ye Miaomiao frowned, squeezed through the crowd, and found the only clerk in the store who could be called a shopping guide: "Do you sell pure honey in your store?"
The clerk saw her again and sneered, thinking that Ye Miaomiao couldn't afford it and was looking for trouble.
He raised his head slightly: "That's pure honey."
Ye Miaomiao: “?” She said word by word: “That’s prepared honey.”
The people nearby heard the noise and turned around.
Honey cake is too expensive. It’s okay to buy one or two pieces, but it’s not cost-effective to buy them in large quantities.
Many people have the same idea as Ye Miaomiao, buying honey and making it themselves, or buying honey by-products that are not as effective.
Unexpectedly, the Valley Shop didn't display the properties of other products. But with the honey cake being such a gem, the others would probably be... not much worse.
"Why are you being unreasonable? I told you it's honey, so it is honey." The clerk only accepted gentle words and couldn't stand this kind of anger: "If I had known, I wouldn't have warned you just now. You really took my kindness for granted. Not only can you not afford it, but you also want to make trouble!"
"Hey! How do you talk like that?" Hu Mifeng got angry before Ye Miaomiao.
However, before he could say anything, a stranger customer next to him spoke first: "This is honey produced and collected by their system. Don't think that you can be a master just because you know a little bit. This is not honey at all."
"Yeah, didn't someone just say this honey is impure? What does he know? It's been verified."
The chattering sounds from the crowd gave the clerk more confidence, and she raised her head proudly.
The honey products in the store are actually not expensive. Except for the sky-high priced cakes that cost 200 points, a 100g portion of honey costs only 30 points and a honey snack costs only 40 points.
The clerk looked at Ye Miaomiao's simple outfit and thought she was poor. She couldn't even afford such cheap things, so it was no wonder she wanted to get a bargain.
He immediately stretched out his hand, wanting to ask Ye Miaomiao to leave.
At this moment, she completely forgot that she was just a clerk in the Xishan Valley Store. She had 200 points in her pocket, not to mention a piece of honey cake, even the 30 points worth of honey were enough to buy her one meal and not her next.
Ye Miaomiao: “…” She just wanted to buy some honey, is that so difficult?
However, although the store only displays "blended honey", since it is called honey, honey must be produced in the valley.
Thinking of this, Ye Miaomiao asked for 200 points of store fees, and immediately took out a can of honey from the warehouse. After paying the tax, a moment later, the iron can of honey appeared in her hands.
At that time, the clerk was about to "ask" her to leave because there were many customers in the store helping her.
Suddenly, the guests who had just been filled with indignation suddenly widened their eyes. The rough movements of his hands became extremely gentle, and the ferocious expressions of the previous second turned into shock and flattery, which looked very funny.
This time it was the clerk's turn to be confused.
She had a bad premonition, thinking that Ye Miaomiao was going to rob her, and subconsciously stood in front of her own honey, putting on a protective posture.
Unexpectedly, things did not develop as she expected.
"This is pure honey," Ye Miaomiao not only showed its properties to everyone around her, but also unscrewed the lid to reveal its appearance -
Sure enough, the blended honey at Tongxi Valley Store is completely different!
The clerk wanted to refute her, but subconsciously checked the properties of the honey: [Honey from an unknown shop: Restores 3 hunger points and 8 mood points per 100g; (Special ingredient honey, shelf life is 3 months)]
Let’s forget about the first part, but the second part, “special ingredient honey”, actually reveals a fact: this is truly pure honey.
What is even more unbelievable is that compared with the "blended honey" in Xishan Valley, this jar of "honey" really looks completely different, just as Ye Miaomiao said!
You can tell what is true and what is false at a glance.
The clerk's face suddenly turned red and blue, and he stammered and couldn't speak.
"That's what I was told! I don't remember the honey I bought before looking like this!"
Everyone's tone immediately changed. Someone eagerly asked, "Little girl, which store are you from? Do you have a lot of honey? How much is it?"
Ye Miaomiao opened the interface of the border port and added the name of the hungry territory directly to the store name. In short, if you want to sell some extra things, these things need to be done.
"Hungry Hungry Shop," Ye Miaomiao said, closing the screen. "We mainly sell various iron tools and some daily necessities. We don't sell honey for the time being."
So that’s it... Everyone immediately withdrew their hands in disappointment.
However, iron tools are even more important than honey. As the population of a territory increases, iron tools must be used to improve production efficiency so that agriculture, mining, and other industries can meet demand.
Especially after coal technology was blocked, wood became a scarce commodity and iron axes were in short supply.
Knowing that the Hungry Hungry Shop would soon be selling a variety of iron tools, many people present added the shop to their favorites. They can then follow the navigation to find it.
Back to honey, Ye Miaomiao handed the honey jar to the clerk again: "This is the kind of honey, do you sell it?"
"I..." The clerk blushed. How could she say this?
They said they were selling blended honey, and they said they weren't selling it, but they were still using honey as a sign! She was simply asking for trouble! Besides... she wasn't the owner, so how would she know the difference between blended and unblended honey?
Seeing her stammering and unable to speak, the customers next to her understood everything.
It turns out that this shop is using the sign of honey cake to deceive people!
"Give me back! I bought your honey, but I don't want it anymore. I want my money back!"
"That's right! Who knew you were so cunning! You put the word 'blend' in front of 'honey' and tricked others into thinking it was real honey! Now I know, blended, it might only contain a few tenths of a percent of honey!"
"Give me back! Give me back!"
Those who didn't buy anything were fine, but those who did were furious, especially those who had bought a lot, who wanted to return their items immediately. Under the condemnation of the crowd, the clerk took two steps back and said, "I...I..." but at this moment, he couldn't say a word.
Ye Miaomiao: "..." Don't be impatient! Let her first ask if there is any honey!
However, the public outrage was hard to resist, and a large group of people didn't even care about the honey cakes, surrounding the clerk to demand justice. Ye Miaomiao couldn't squeeze in and ask about the honey.
She walked out of the shop with Hu Mifeng dejectedly, and then thought back to the man who set up the stall at the beginning. Unfortunately, the man was no longer there.
"Actually..." Hu Mifeng rubbed his hands: "Actually, if you have the address and name, my job as a courier can help you check whether his goods are genuine."
