Chapter 192 A Familiar Smell
Wen Yulan nodded.
After learning that they were Her Majesty the Queen's team, Wen Yulan sent someone to contact her old subordinates who remained at the Star Base. She originally just wanted to gossip a little, but who could have expected that after learning about the purification crystal core, Wen Yulan and her group, who were already on their way to Star City, rushed to Star City overnight after hearing about this.
"Hopefully, the adults will do business with us again tomorrow. While we still have time, let's go collect some more crystal cores. Every little bit helps, because there might not be a next time."
"good."
...
The weather was gloomy every day, and Ling Ran had no interest in going out for a stroll.
She'd been reading too many novels lately, so today, unusually, she didn't read any. Instead, she sat at the dining table watching Uncle Chen make stinky tofu.
Just as I was looking at it, there was a knock on the door.
Then Zhou Hang's voice came through: "Is it you?"
At the entrance, besides Yu Linjiang and his spatial ability users, there were the Wen sisters and a man who had been with them earlier.
Yu Linjiang led his men in and immediately saw Ling Ran sitting at the dining table. He was about to ask a question when he sniffed the air and asked, "What's that smell? It's so pungent yet fragrant?"
And why does it smell so familiar?
Before he could react, Wen Yulan said, "You can't even smell such an obvious stinky tofu?"
"Oh right, it's stinky tofu."
Yu Linjiang seemed to realize something.
Less than a year into the apocalypse, he couldn't even smell stinky tofu anymore. Actually, it wasn't that he couldn't smell it, but rather that he hadn't eaten it in so long that he couldn't believe his eyes when he suddenly smelled it.
He looked at Uncle Chen making pieces of stinky tofu and gave Ling Ran a fawning smile: "Sir, are you selling your stinky tofu?"
Ling Ran looked at Uncle Chen, who replied, "I'm sorry, this is my first time trying, I didn't do much."
Yu Linjiang was somewhat disappointed: "Alright, by the way, sir, let me introduce you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Pei Xiu interrupted him: "No need for introductions, we're the Wen sisters, we know each other."
"You know each other?" Yu Linjiang looked at the Wen Yulan sisters, feeling a sense of betrayal.
"We met briefly when you passed through Yangzhou before, sir," Wen Yulan explained simply before asking, "Sir, I heard you have purification crystal cores for sale. May I buy some?"
Seeing that Ling Ran's gaze was on the stinky tofu again, Pei Yi answered on her behalf: "Okay, 100 crystal cores, 60 returned."
"OK."
Wen Yulan had already inquired about the price.
This is cheaper than the evolution fluid. Even if it were more expensive, she would still be willing to buy it, but she would only buy a small amount.
Wen Yulan said to the man behind her, "Old Wang, take out the crystal core."
As soon as he finished speaking, boxes of crystal cores appeared in the living room: "Here are 100,000 crystal cores. Please count them."
Gu Zijing scanned the area with her special ability and said, "Hmm, no problem."
After exchanging yesterday's crystal cores with Yu Linjiang, Yu Linjiang took out another 100,000 crystal cores. Meeting the meaningful gazes of Pei Yi and the others, Yu Linjiang felt a little embarrassed.
He knew the other party had figured out that he hadn't trusted them before.
Yu Linjiang quickly changed the subject: "Sir, lunch has been prepared. Please do me the honor of coming over for lunch."
Lunch was quite plentiful.
There were vegetables, meat, and fruit, and the seasonings were all available. There were also many specialty dishes from Seremban Province. Although the chef's skills were not as good as Uncle Chen's, they were still very good.
Little did Pei Yi and the others know that Yu Linjiang had specially sent someone to find a chef from among the survivors after hearing that Ling Ran liked food.
