In the kitchen, there were all kinds of seasonings such as sugar, salt, soy sauce, etc., so Su Han got busy.
First, take two fresh fish and cook them in soup, and cut the sashimi at the same time. When the soup is almost done, cook the sashimi in the soup and then take it out. The fish slices will immediately become smooth and tender!
Su Han ate the fish happily, and wanted to buy some sesame paste or peanut butter to dip it in. But considering that this was a survival game and money was in short supply, she had to give up the idea with regret.
From a distance, Zhong Rui smelled a fishy aroma. He looked around in confusion and followed the smell. When he found the bamboo house and found that the guy eating and drinking inside looked familiar, his expression became more and more strange, "Remember this is a survival game?"
Su Han put the fish into his mouth with an expression that said "I'm desperate too". "The fog is not dangerous at all. What can I do?" He could only treat it as a vacation.
"Didn't you go to work?" Zhong Rui continued to ask.
Su Han said nothing. There was no need to tell the other party that he couldn't find a job. After all, all the players in the game were competitors, so one had to be on guard against them.
Zhong Rui understood instantly, and said helplessly, "Do you still think I'm suspicious?"
"I can survive well in the game by myself, and I don't plan to find help." Su Han said implicitly.
Zhong Rui was speechless. What she meant was that it wasn't that he seemed particularly suspicious, but that no one was within her trust range.
After thinking for a moment, Zhong Rui said seriously, "I still owe you a favor. Do you want to know how to clear the novice copy? I can tell you for free."
Su Han looked at the other person in confusion. "If you're talking about helping to treat my wounds, you don't owe me a favor. I've already paid you afterwards, and you also reminded me to leave the apartment. We're even now."
"But I think my life is more valuable than three boxes of anti-inflammatory drugs." Zhong Rui looked extremely serious while speaking.
Then he changed the subject, "If you feel embarrassed, you can treat me to a meal." As he said that, he looked at the grilled oysters and sashimi on the stove.
Su Han, "..."
Is this guy really not here to eat and drink for free?
She knew that some food was easy to stock up, but it didn't taste good, such as black bread. When you can't find food, you have to eat it to survive. But if there are other options, players are very happy to improve their meals.
But Zhong Rui is rich enough to sweep the drugstores, so why does he have to get in front of her? Wouldn’t it be better to go to a restaurant and have a big meal?
After thinking about it, the only explanation is repaying a favor. And eating and drinking for free is probably just a side job.
"Go ahead." Su Han decided to listen.
"Crisis situations are usually accompanied by water and power outages, so after entering the game, I stockpiled 100 bars of soap, 100 boxes of compressed biscuits and 700 bottles of mineral water, planning to make a fortune after the water supply was cut off. Fortunately, my bet was right." Zhong Rui smiled slightly.
700 bottles of mineral water... Su Han was convinced. But she felt a little strange, "Where did the candles come from?" There was more than just mineral water on the street stalls at that time.
"It was stored in an abandoned warehouse and I found it by accident. To use gaming terms, it was probably a resource point discovered by a player." Zhong Rui replied.
Su Han lowered her head and said nothing. She wondered if the beach could also be considered a resource point, providing food from time to time?
Zhong Rui continued, "After the tap water became undrinkable, my street stall business was quite good, and I was able to exchange for a lot of useful things. Then I was hunted down and met you. After leaving the apartment, there were gunfights everywhere, so I hid in the mountains and forests until the dungeon was over."
Hiding in the mountains? Su Han's expression became strange. If I remember correctly, there was a poster on the forum who said that his friend also hid in the mountains to pass the level.
"I also saw the post on the forum, but I don't recognize it." Zhong Rui understood Su Han's expression very well and couldn't help but explain, "I'm not the only one hiding in the mountains."
Su Han shrugged and handed over the grilled oysters, "Eat." Although the other party's actions were completely irrelevant, she had no intention of hoarding 700 bottles of mineral water, nor did she intend to hide in the mountains and forests, but seeing that the other party was very sincere, she decided to treat Zhong Rui to a meal - after all, the ingredients were picked up, and it would be a waste if they couldn't be eaten.
Zhong Rui, "..."
Just say "eat" and that's it?
Zhong Rui was speechless. He told his story, of course, not to repay a favor. Or rather, it was not just to repay a favor.
When he was seriously injured, Su Han did not take advantage of him, but helped him instead, which shows that he has a good character. He told the other party about his experience, which was actually a hint to the other party that he was a big shot. The two of them had a previous relationship, so the other party could easily come over and ask for help. And he would also agree to it.
Unexpectedly, the other party forgot about it after hearing it, and had no intention of rushing over to curry favor with him.
Each person ate a grilled oyster, and Su Han started to make steamed crabs and stir-fried razor clams.
The boss stood alone and no one paid attention to him. He felt that he had no status. Suddenly, he thought of a possibility and his eyes froze.
Zhong Rui said softly, "Actually, you also cleared the novice copy, right?"
This is the only way to explain why the other party is indifferent. Because she is already very capable and does not need to curry favor with others.
Su Han was very puzzled, "Doesn't it look like it?" She felt that she was very fierce and looked difficult to deal with!
As expected. Zhong Rui took a deep breath and changed the subject, "It's okay, I'm full." After saying that, he turned around and left decisively.
Su Han looked at someone's back and was speechless. How could he be considered full after eating only one oyster? What on earth was this guy doing here?
**
After a hearty meal, Su Han found that he had picked up too much seafood. Not only did he have more than ten pounds of stir-fried clams left, but he also had two or three pounds of steamed crabs and a pound of fresh shrimp.
After thinking about it, she packed up the crabs and clams and planned to go out to set up a stall. You know, although she has no worries about food and drink, she is poor and only has 50 shells on her. With this little money, she can't live in the bamboo house for 20 days, so finding a way to make money has become the most important thing at the moment.
"Razor clams - delicious clams -" Su Han shouted loudly.
The fried clams are particularly fragrant, and the smell can drift far in the air. Although there is fog blocking the way, the fragrance is like a signpost, guiding customers forward.
"It smells so good. How much is it?" A girl walked to the stall, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then couldn't help showing a look of intoxication.
"15 clams per pound." Su Han did some market research before setting up the stall and knew that the market price was 25 clams per pound. However, her clams were picked up from the beach, and they didn't look as good as those specially farmed. Plus, the stall was simple, and customers might not mind. So she simply sold them at a discount.
"Only 15 shells?" The girl was quite tempted. She took out the money and said, "Take a pound and try it."
Su Han quickly put the food in a bowl. Because he was the first customer, she not only gave him more clams, but also gave him some steamed crabs.
"Try it. If it's delicious, come back next time." Su Han greeted him warmly, although she actually didn't know whether she would continue to set up a stall in the future.
The girl tried to take a bite and her eyes widened immediately. The meat was plump and the seasoning was particularly tasty. It tasted delicious!
"It's delicious." The girl felt mysteriously touched.
"As long as you like it, take your time to eat." Su Han looked very calm, but he was actually a little uneasy. Hearing the other party's praise, he finally felt relieved and smiled happily.
The aroma of razor clams wafted through the air, and passers-by passed by one after another, unable to resist the urge to come to the stall.
"Razor clams, right? Give me a pound too."
"Are you selling crabs? How much per pound? What flavor?"
"I want two kilograms of razor clams. As for the flavor...tsk, why is there only one flavor?"
The clams and crabs were picked up on the beach, and the bowls and chopsticks were borrowed from the bamboo house. Su Han relied on the fact that he was doing business without capital, so he was particularly generous in doing business.
If the customer asked for more clams, she would give them more clams. If the customer asked for crabs, she would give crabs. When someone complained about why there was only one flavor, she would simply say, "It's my first day in business, and I didn't prepare other flavors. I'll give you more clams to apologize." The other person immediately stopped talking.
An hour later, all the seafood was sold out. Su Han took inventory and found that he had sold 14 kilograms of clams, netting 210 clams.
She was suddenly in a trance, with a sense of déjà vu as if "an unemployed young woman couldn't find a job and was forced to start her own business, but she counterattacked and reached the peak of her life."
Su Han packed up her stall and was about to go back to the bamboo house. There was a customer beside her who was reluctant to leave. "The clams you made are so delicious! Will you come again tomorrow? Prepare more. It won't be enough."
"Come on, come on." Su Han nodded repeatedly. She hadn't earned enough for accommodation yet, so she didn't have time to rest.
On the way back, Su Han couldn't help but wonder, what on earth was going on in the second instance? It was just fog. If I walked slower or drove slower, it wouldn't affect my life at all. What kind of survival game was this?
If she hadn't met Zhong Rui, she almost thought she had connected to the wrong line and was playing a business simulation game.
Su Han was immersed in his own thoughts when suddenly, a sound came from the side, "Bang."
The sound was particularly harsh, obviously there was another car accident not far away.
Su Han looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a man in volunteer clothing being hit by a car. The man drew an amazing arc in the sky, but soon, his figure was obscured by the thick fog. He could only hear the sound of "slap" landing, but could not see where the man fell.
Su Han's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, volunteering is indeed a high-risk job, and it was right not to sign up.
The author has something to say: It’s not just fog (☆_☆)
