Chapter 004: Eating Broadcast
The storage space is a storage device made by interstellar scientists using space compression technology. It includes rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and all kinds of styles.
The space inside also varies in size. The smallest one is only five cubic meters, which is about the size of several large suitcases, and the largest one can accommodate an interstellar battleship.
Unfortunately, regardless of size, the space storage devices have not been unlocked at present, so Lu Xuan has no way of knowing whether these things are expensive or not.
In short, he definitely couldn't afford it with the 90 points left in his account.
However, according to what the audience mentioned in today's chat, the value of star coins is not much different from modern times. I think when he can earn 1,800 points, he should be able to afford a small space, right?
He has already earned more than a hundred points this morning, so he shouldn't have to wait too long for a thousand points.
Lu Xuan temporarily shifted his gaze from the storage space and turned to look at other products in the mall that he was also very interested in.
For example, the medical cabin can save the patient as long as he or she is still breathing. No matter if the patient has a terminal illness, is missing limbs or even has internal organs, the disease can be cured by using special medical medicine.
Various types of hover cars, aircraft, and even spaceships...
They are all in the unlocked state, and from the functions of these things and the fact that they are sorted very far back on the page, we can guess that they will not be unlocked too early, and the price will definitely be very expensive.
But no matter how expensive it is, since it is already in the mall, he will be able to afford it one day, right?
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with knowing your future possessions in advance.
While Lu Xuan was watching, he did not forget to simply deal with the remaining two pigs.
·
Half an hour later, lunch was finally ready.
Lu Qing usually lives frugally, but today she had a rare sumptuous meal, and she was generous with the ingredients when cooking. The dish was not only fragrant, but also looked particularly tempting.
A large pot of braised rabbit meat, a plate of golden scrambled eggs, and a large bowl of egg custard with a few drops of soy sauce, just looking at it makes people swallow their saliva.
Lu Chen's eyes widened.
Lu Xuan asked, "Have you reserved your brother-in-law's share?"
Lu Qing's expression softened as she served them each a bowl of brown rice and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll keep it all."
After saying this, she couldn't help but feel distressed. "We haven't eaten like this during Chinese New Year. It's really too extravagant. It's okay to have a meal occasionally, but we can't eat like this every meal in the future. We can't afford it."
Lu Xuan remained silent.
Lu Chen held the bowl in his hand and kept looking at the braised rabbit meat, swallowing his saliva. However, after picking up the chopsticks, he did not pick up the meat. Instead, he picked up the scrambled eggs and stuffed them into his mouth. Then he squinted his eyes in satisfaction, and an atmosphere of happiness emanated from his body.
The audience in the live broadcast room, who were drooling over the food on the table, felt sad.
Although they did not eat well and had to take nutritional supplements, nutritional supplements, and nutritional supplements every day, at least the low price of nutritional supplements ensured that all citizens did not have to worry about going hungry.
But this child obviously doesn't have enough to eat often, and he looks so cherishing when he rarely has a good meal. It's so pitiful!
[The little brother is so cute, the anchor will have to feed him every day from now on! ]
【Throw a gift and feed your good brother! 】
[Brother, eat some meat! What you eat nourishes you! Don't be polite to your brother, you'll make him broke!]
Lu Xuan added a large piece of meat to Lu Chen's bowl and said, "Don't be reluctant to eat it. It's hot now. It will be a waste if you can't finish it in one meal." Then he picked up another piece of meat for Lu Qing who had worked hard to prepare a meal.
Lu Qing, who had originally planned to save the meat for her brothers, straightened her expression and said, "That's right, we can't waste it!"
Farmers hate to see anything wasted, especially meat. They will eat it all even if it means they die of stuffing!
Soon, the three of them stopped talking and started eating.
The audience, who had been feeling sorry for Lu Chen's younger brother just a moment ago, fell silent.
Pity? Who is pitiful?
Instead of feeling sorry for the host’s family, why not hug yourself out of pity? Woohoo!
One viewer asked, "While it certainly has some of the flavor of ancient food shows, I can't eat them or smell them. Doesn't it make me crave more and more?"
There were countless audience members below who echoed and cursed.
However, the number of online users has been increasing little by little without any decrease, which truly demonstrates what it means to say one thing and mean another, and to be hypocritical but act uprightly.
·
In order to avoid waste, Lu Qing and Lu Chen stuffed their food into their stomachs, but they were so full after eating half of it that they could not eat any more.
Lu Xuan made sure that they were all full, so he didn't worry anymore. He quickened his eating speed and finished up most of the remaining vegetables and meat in front of the astonished gazes of the siblings and the audience.
Lu Qing: ? ? Didn’t you say you couldn’t finish it?
She looked at Lu Xuan's stomach worriedly, her eyes worried: "Don't push yourself, it will be bad if your stomach bursts."
Lu Xuan said calmly, "It's okay. I have a big appetite and this little bit of food won't keep me going."
Lu Qing noticed that his belly didn't become round like Lu Chen's, and there was no sign of discomfort on his face. She felt relieved and couldn't help but imagine it in her mind.
In the past, when the family was not well off, did Lu Xuan never have enough to eat? Did he just endure it and not show it just to avoid making his older sister feel uncomfortable?
When Lu Qing thought of this possibility, she felt guilty and distressed.
However, the audience in the live broadcast room quickly recovered after being shocked.
The anchor is a person with special abilities. People with special abilities have a large appetite, and the higher their level, the greater their appetite. One bottle of nutritional supplement can last an ordinary person a day, but a person with special abilities needs two, three or even more. This is normal.
Compared to the anchor, they were more surprised at the anchor sister's appetite.
The same is true for Lu Xuan.
He thought that Lu Qing and Lu Chen would be lucky if they could finish one-third of the meal, but he didn't expect that Lu Qing could eat three big bowls of rice, which was no less than that of an adult man.
Lu Qing noticed the strange look in Lu Xuan's eyes and couldn't help but blush. She said angrily, "What are you looking at? No matter how big my appetite is, can it be bigger than yours? You know that you knew I ate a lot the first time."
Lu Xuan said: "Being able to eat is a blessing, it's good."
Lu Chen looked down at his bloated stomach even though he hadn't eaten much, and felt a little discouraged.
He seems to eat the least in the family.
Lu Xuan glanced at him, his eyes fell on his round belly, and jokingly said: "Hey, how many months is it?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Qing glanced at him, her expression somewhat speechless.
But he soon thought of something, looked down at his stomach, and sighed in his heart.
While digesting his food, Lu Xuan told him about his plan.
"It's hot, so the game won't last long. I'll go to town later to sell the remaining wild boars and buy some daily necessities. The remaining rabbits and pheasants won't fetch much, so I won't sell them. I'll cook them all tonight. I'll keep the lard, and I'll ask my sister to refine it into oil."
Lu Qing nodded, "Okay!"
The total amount of lard from the two pigs should be about 20 pounds, and 15 pounds of oil should be refined, which is enough for them to eat for a long time. In the future, when cooking for my younger brothers, I can add more oil to nourish them.
Lu Xuan asked her, "What is missing at home? I will buy it all."
Lu Qing waved her hands and said, "There's nothing missing. Didn't we already exchange that wild boar for over a hundred kilograms of food? How could we be short of anything? Just buy whatever you like, and keep the rest of the money."
In the past, she was the one who collected the family's money. Now that Lu Xuan has recovered, he should be the one to keep the Lu family's property.
Lu Xuan nodded, "Then I'll buy it myself."
After chatting for a while, Lu Qing stood up and started to clean up the dishes. Lu Xuan and Lu Chen followed to help. Lu Xuan also checked the things in the kitchen.
With more than 100 kilograms of supplies that we just exchanged, the family is not short of food for the time being, but the villagers exchanged for coarse grains, which don’t taste very good, so we still have to buy refined rice and flour.
In addition, the clothes of the Lu family, including his own, were all very worn out. Not only were they washed white, but they also had several patches on them. It was unknown how many years they had been worn. The same could be said of the bedding at home, even the wooden bed and wardrobe...
Lu Qing said that there was nothing that needed to be bought at home, but in Lu Xuan's eyes, the family lacked everything. If they really wanted to improve their lives, the money earned from today's prey would probably not be enough.
Right now we can only think of ways to improve our eating conditions.
Lu Xuan had a rough idea in his mind, so he said goodbye to Lu Qing, carried the two wild boars in the yard and went out. Before leaving, he said to Lu Chen, "Take good care of the house. I'll bring you some delicious food when I come back."
Lu Chen, who had just eaten but hadn't digested the food yet, lit up his eyes again.
-
It takes an hour to walk from Yunlu Village to the nearest town. For people who walk frequently, this distance is neither far nor near. The villagers are used to walking this road and don’t feel tired at all.
But traveling easily and carrying nearly 500 kilograms of prey are two completely different things.
But look at Lu Xuan, he was carrying two wild boars as if they were nothing. After leaving the village, he even ran faster to save time, and shortened the journey of one hour to fifteen hours.
The audience in the live broadcast room were all stunned, especially many people who noticed that not only was Lu Xuan's breathing regular, he was also hardly sweating!
Is this host still a human being?! Carrying such a heavy prey is like weight training, and yet he can run so fast and not even break a sweat! Is this reasonable?!
[It's really not reasonable. The live broadcast room shows that the temperature over there is 28 degrees Celsius. Although it's not very high, it happens to be the time when the stellar heat energy value is at its highest. Even if you just stay outside for a while, you will sweat profusely, right?]
[This physical quality is comparable to that of a regular soldier, right? ]
[Could it be that I guessed wrong before, the host is not a strength-type psychic, but a speed-type psychic? ]
Lu Xuan glanced at the comments and casually said, "Guess?" before heading into Baisong Town.
There are many ancient towns in modern times. After restoration and renovation, those ancient towns have become scenic spots and are all very prosperous. However, the real ancient towns are much more dilapidated than modern ancient towns. To be honest, there is really nothing to see.
After Lu Xuan entered, he didn't have much interest in sightseeing. He just asked someone where the restaurants and hotels with good business in the town were located and started looking from the nearest one.
The first two restaurants they found, one said they didn't want wild boar meat, and the other offered too low a price, so they couldn't reach an agreement. Finally, they went to the largest restaurant in town, "Xiangxuelou". The owner saw that the wild boar meat was indeed fresh, so he bought two pigs for twelve cents per pound.
The price of domestic pork here is about 25 to 30 wen per catty, depending on the part of the pork. Wild boar meat tastes worse than domestic pork and is mostly lean, so the price is lower, averaging 20 wen per catty.
If a restaurant wants to make money, it will definitely not charge according to the market price. Compared with the previous restaurant that was only willing to pay ten cents, the price of Xiangxuelou is already quite good.
The two pigs weighed about 500 kilograms in total. Assuming 70% of the meat was net, that would be 350 kilograms. In the end, Lu Xuan made a net profit of 4 taels and 200 coins.
Barrage:
Can anyone tell me how much four taels of silver is worth? Is that a good profit?
Based on my experience watching Yuangu livestreams, this translates to roughly 4,200 Star Coins? Earning that much in a day is pretty good, considering it's the average person's monthly salary.
[That's right! Some poor people in ancient times might only earn this much silver in a year. Host, go hunting more often in the future. Getting rich quickly is not a dream!]
[I'll buy food when I make money! Buy more delicious food! I want to watch more eating shows!!!]
[I have a question! Why does the anchor leave the pig stomach when selling pork? Is it valuable?]
Lu Xuan, who had just pocketed the silver, replied, "That depends on who you sell it to."
As he said this, he walked into the drugstore which was just across from Xiangxue Tower.
