Needless to say, a steamed bun is priced at a sky-high price. Even a bowl of porridge here can be sold for 5 crystal cores.
"No wonder when Brother Li mentioned 70 crystal cores in the car, Wan Li took out the money without batting an eyelid," Su Jin muttered.
"Yeah, I suddenly feel that the things in Xinyu Convenience Store are really cheap. Are all the people in this base so rich?"
Lin Xiuyuan couldn't help but ask.
"Not necessarily. Do you think anyone is buying anything here?"
Lu Hao glanced at the empty cafeteria and continued, "And if people had money, there wouldn't be so many people going to the pawnshop to pawn their things."
Lin Xiuyuan remembered that when they came out of the pawnshop just now, several people walked into the pawnshop with some large and small things. He also felt that what Lu Hao said was very right. If they were all rich, they would not go to the pawnshop to pawn things!
At this time, Lin Yunguo had already taken Li Xiuying by the hand and slowly walked around in front of the windows of the cafeteria. The people in the windows looked at the people who were just looking but not buying, and they couldn't help but start to be sarcastic.
"I thought he was so rich, he dressed nicely, but he just can't afford to eat!"
"Tsk, an old man and an old woman with a little kid, how much money can they have? They must have raided some clothing store outside."
"That's right, don't worry, sir. These meals are free for you to see, oh hehe~"
“…”
Lin Yunguo looked helplessly at Su Jin behind him. He just looked at the pancakes in the window and found that there was a layer of mold on the surface of the pancakes, so he looked at them a few more times. Was he misunderstood as not being able to afford to eat?
Lin Xiuyuan was unwilling to accept this. He felt that his family was being looked down upon, almost being laughed at. So he took a deep breath and started to say, "Is the food here edible? How dare you sell it to me? I can't even finish it even if you pay me!"
"Hey, young man, there are so many people who want to eat here but can't. I think you just don't have money! Yeah, you just can't afford it!"
A woman said this in a sarcastic tone, her expression becoming more and more smug as she spoke.
Su Jin didn't know where these people got their sense of superiority from, but she didn't want her family to be looked down upon again. She took out a bag of plump white buns from her backpack and waved them in front of the people at the window. Then she pointed to the many empty seats in the cafeteria and asked, "Is there a fee to eat here?"
The large, plump, white bag of buns was so dazzling to the people in the window that no one could hear what question Su Jin asked.
"Girl, it's free to sit here and eat."
A middle-aged woman with her hair tied up sitting in a seat not far away answered.
"Thanks"
Su Jin smiled at the middle-aged woman, then sat down in one of the seats closest to the cafeteria window.
She took out a few bento boxes from the backpacks of the other people, placed them on the table and said to her family, "It's time to eat. Let's eat here and continue shopping!"
"Okay, okay, girl, I'm hungry too."
Nie Qing took a lunch box and sat down.
"Eat together"
Lu Hao also took the lunch box and took the wet wipes from Su Jin's hand and gave one to everyone.
Lin Xiuyuan bit into a big meat bun and said angrily, "Humph, I don't have money to eat yours? White flour! Meat filling! See?"
"Grandpa, these chicken wings are delicious."
Mao Qiqi said with a sweet smile.
"If it tastes good, eat a few more pieces and ask your grandpa to make it for you next time."
Li Xiuying also opened a lunch box and ate while speaking.
Several people in the window: "..."
There are actually buns made of white flour these days?!
And when they looked from afar, they discovered that the lunch box not only contained meat, but also white rice? Even green vegetables?!
In comparison, what are those thin porridges with a few rice grains floating in them, those gray multi-grain steamed buns, and those moldy flatbreads they sell here?
There is no harm without comparison!
Su Jin took a look at the cafeteria and found that there were not many people eating there.
She picked up the two buns, walked up to the middle-aged woman with her hair tied up, and said, "Auntie, thank you for what I did just now. These two buns are for you."
"No, no, no, I can't accept such a valuable thing."
The middle-aged woman actually began to refuse. You know, food is so expensive these days. If these two buns were sold in this base, they would probably cost a sky-high price!
"It's okay, you can keep it, but it's best to eat here before leaving."
Su Jin glanced at the people in the cafeteria who kept looking over here and said that she really wanted to give it to this aunt, but if it brought trouble to her, it would be counterproductive.
"Hey, girl, you are really beautiful and kind-hearted. However, I see that you are new to this base, so you must take good care of your things."
The aunt came close to Su Jin and said that although the base looked peaceful on the surface, it was actually very dangerous.
"Thanks"
After Su Jin finished speaking, he walked to the family's table and continued eating while chatting with the family, ignoring the looks of the people around him.
Looking at the middle-aged woman who was eating the meat bun with satisfaction, the people in the window suddenly felt as if they were slapped in the face.
The meat bun looks so big and round, and it’s obvious that it’s filled with a lot of fillings.
Some people couldn't help swallowing their saliva. If they could have a meal like this, oh no, even just a bun, they would be willing to pay any amount of crystal cores!
It was a pity that those people ate very quickly, even packing up their lunch boxes after they had finished eating, without leaving even a grain of rice residue behind...
