Chapter 96 95. Water-based superpowers
"Fish fry?"
The person being asked was at a loss: "I haven't heard of it... Oh, by the way! There is an artificial lake in our Jinyuan community. Just walk along the gate of the community and you will see it."
"I remember who chose that artificial lake. Maybe there are some fish and shrimp in it."
Huai Yu said "Oh" and squatted down to look carefully at the things on the stall.
The items on this stall are a bit mixed, as if they were picked up from some garbage dump.
Huaiyu looked around for a long time, finally touched a rusty measuring tape, and then took a look at a wooden box that was covered in black.
"What's this?"
The other party perked up and said, "This? You little girls probably don't recognize this. This is the ink fountain used by carpenters in the past."
Ink fountain?
Huaiyu seemed to know: "Should we pull out the string, fix it to the ground with the copper nail at the front, and then when the ink line is flicked, a straight line will be left on the ground... Is that right?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Someone knew the value of the item, and the other party was also quite surprised: "You have used it? Oh, it's not surprising. Nowadays, people take out all kinds of new and old gadgets and use them randomly. As long as they can be used, it's fine."
"How about it? Do you want it? If you do, I'll give you a discount."
Huaiyu hesitated for a moment: I seem to have only 800 points left. Is it unnecessary to buy this ink fountain? But with this and the measuring tape, it will be easier to draw the territory for Kuang Biao in the future, right?
This guy will become more and more demanding if you let your guard down for a moment, so the card size needs to be more strict.
I wonder if he will be more restrained in the future after he suffered a loss from the two goose cubs this time? Thinking of this, she also handed over the slightly rusty measuring tape in her hand: "Two, I'll buy them if they're cheap enough, I don't have money for more."
The other party obviously didn't believe it: "You already have a car..."
He raised his chin and pointed to the purple-green bracelet that was too large on Huaiyu's thin arm:
"This store used to sell acid-washed and rubber-injected bracelets that hurt people and they were often fined. Now they have found a way to make money again... Little girl, you already have a car, so don't haggle over the price with me - let's put it this way, 15 cents in total, take it if you want it."
He didn't seem very enthusiastic about doing business, and he was in low spirits from beginning to end: "Don't bargain, I won't sell it to you if you continue bargaining. Go to the pedestrian street in the city and see that this tape measure costs this much."
Huaiyu: ...
In fact, she is quite good at bargaining.
but……
The other party was right about one thing: in the Hongsheng trading market, this tape measure would need to be 18 to 21 points.
Huaiyu nodded: "Okay!"
While thinking about it, I decided to cover the bracelet with my sleeve next time.
Don’t wear it on your arm, for fear of it being stolen.
It's too conspicuous to carry it with you, and everyone will know that you have a car.
She used her sleeve to roll up the bracelet to cover it, added two small tools into her backpack, and then looked all the way to the artificial lake in the middle of the community.
Jinyuan Community is really big, covering an area of nearly 1,000 acres, and it is full of high-rise buildings like this.
I heard that this was a property that was developed when housing prices were soaring, but it was later left unfinished and nothing came of it.
However, the artificial lake in the middle was dug with real value, and was directly selected by an abandoned urban area with a high contribution score.
Huaiyu walked while thinking that the other party should have some ability.
Otherwise there would be no use having such a big lake!
These have all been screened by the defense forces, just like the pond beside the Rose Corridor, with green water and green grass, but no fish.
Soon, the artificial lake appeared in front of us.
Huaiyu stood by the lake and looked around. He found that there were green lotus leaves sticking out of the lake like small boats! "Lotus root!"
She was instantly surprised and wanted to move closer, but then someone called her.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?! Private territory!"
Huaiyu came to his senses and saw that the pavilion by the lake was now surrounded by thick curtains on all sides, with only one side rolled up and open, revealing a couple inside.
This pavilion is their home.
The woman was squatting there mending the fishing net, and the man was wearing a pair of boots, his feet still stained with wet mud, probably because he had just come ashore.
Huaiyu then smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect there would be lotus leaves here, so I wanted to see...um, lotus roots, are they for sale?"
The other party didn't refuse outright, but just looked her up and down and said, "I'll sell it to you, but it's not cheap - 25 cents for one lotus root. You don't need me to remove the leaves, right? Usually they only have one or two leaves."
Lotus root is not a necessity for life, and its return is a bit low compared to other crops, and it also requires water.
Nowadays, it is actually very rare to sell lotus roots.
Huaiyu thought about it and thought twenty-five cents was a bit expensive, but considering that this was a long-term business...
She turned her head and looked at the lotus leaf that had just revealed its tip, feeling it carefully -
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"This mutation value is a bit high. If 18 points is OK, I'll buy a few more."
Eh? The other party was puzzled: "You are also a superpower? I thought so. If you are not a water element, you don't dare to waste money on this..."
His expression actually showed a sense of intimacy. Obviously, although his weak supernatural power was weak, it was still uncommon.
Huaiyu also understood - and then smiled obediently, as if agreeing.
Then he asked, "Do you have any fish or shrimp? Loach, crab, anything is fine."
The other side has such a big lake, there must be more than just this lotus root, so he nodded at this moment:
"We have everything. Small fish fry for one cent each, shrimp, loach, crab for four for one cent."
Huaiyu reached his hand in at the lakeside to sense it - it was a bit [dirty], and the mutation value should be a bit high.
"Five cents for six fry, one cent for five for the rest."
"If possible, I want 200 points. I also want six lotus roots, a total of 300 points."
She has no special use for her current share except buying some rice, flour, grain and oil. Whether she grows bean sprouts or goes to the mountains, she will always have income.
So even though Huaiyu is stingy, he is still very generous when it comes to spending money.
Huh? This time the other party was really surprised.
Many people come here to buy fish fry, shrimps and crabs, after all, every household is trying to find ways to make food. Some people can find a big fish tank, or have previous breeding experience, so they will inevitably want to raise something in it.
However, the purchasing power of this Jinyuan community is limited. Even if the nearby communities are combined, it is rare to find such generous customers at once.
The other party hesitated for a moment, and the couple gathered together to discuss it in whispers. Finally, the man stepped out of the room again:
"OK!"
"But let me make it clear first, the fish fry here are really small - you should understand this, fish meat is so popular now! If it's bigger, it won't be this price."
After a moment, Huai Yu stared at the fish fry, which were not much bigger than tadpoles, and remained silent.
If the man of this house didn't have water-related abilities and didn't have to scoop up a bucket of water to attract some of the things, she wouldn't know what to use to fish this thing out.
At this moment, I couldn't help but sigh: "This...is really not big."
Update 2, good night.
