The Apocalypse’s Great Merchant

Chapter 3: 003 Setting up stalls in the trading area

Views:

Lan Ke looked at the calendar and began to count the days.

Today is December 20th, and there are 11 days until New Year's Day. If nothing unexpected happens, the whole world will be shrouded in darkness on New Year's Day. After seven days of darkness, there will be three days of continuous black rain, and then global mutations will begin.

Therefore, this New Year's Day is considered to be the beginning of the last century.

She was completely unprepared in her previous life and suffered a lot in the end times. It was not until her cooking skills improved and a powerful man took a fancy to her cooking skills and recruited her that her life became better.

Although her rebirth was an accident, if she had to experience the end of the world again, she would never depend on anyone this time.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to improve strength and stockpile supplies as much as possible before the end of the world. However, the most important thing at the moment is to become a junior plane merchant and get the big gift package promised by the system!

Thinking of what she had seen in the trading area before, Lan Ke quickly made a plan. She did not attend the afternoon exam, had lunch at home, and went straight to the vegetable market to buy.

Lan Ke prepared everything she needed and started to deal with it when she got home. It took her almost an hour to finish the work. Then, Lan Ke took the prepared items into the free trade zone.

The trading area was bustling with people, not many, but not a small number either. Lan Ke didn't expect to make a lot of money the first time, she didn't prepare much this time, she just came to try her luck.

After finding a vacant space, Lan Ke took out a prepared billboard and placed it aside. On it were written eight characters in a particularly arrogant manner: The most delicious food in the world, this one is the only one of its kind!

Then, regardless of the complicated looks from the neighbors around her, she simply put the grill in place, placed the prepared brains on it one by one, and then lit the charcoal fire. As the temperature continued to rise, a domineering aroma immediately wafted out and continued to spread into the distance.

"Huh? What's that smell? It smells so good!"

"This is too cunning. They actually sell food in the trading area. Why didn't I think of it?"

"Look at that sign. They actually dare to say that this is the only delicacy in the world. How arrogant!"

"What a boast! I don't believe it! We have so many delicious foods. I'll go buy some and bring them in. Let's see if she dares to be so arrogant!"

Although they were all very sour, their eyes were fixed on the fragrant roasted brain on the grill, and they kept swallowing saliva.

The system happily came out to show off its presence: "Oh, I like this taste. Is it ready? Do you want me to help you taste it?"

Lan Ke was speechless: "Aren't you quite cool? Are you infected with the virus?"

System: "Don't you think I'm more approachable now?"

"I don't think so at all!" The end of the world was bad enough, she didn't want to face a ridiculous system all day long, "I think it's better for you to be a little more aloof."

As we were talking, business finally came.

"Is this food? How much?" The man came in wearing a black cloak. His appearance could not be seen clearly, but he was tall and his voice sounded like a man.

The black cloak is a standard feature of the system, and is said to be a form of protection for every merchant in the plane. Once you put on the black cloak, others will not be able to see your origins and details, and you can bounce back when you are attacked.

Lan Ke was wearing such a black cloak at the moment. She glanced at the person who came and said calmly, "One for every 10 trading points. Only one at a time. No more than that."

The system was happy about the business coming to it, but when it heard this, it immediately became anxious: "10 transaction points! This price is too expensive!" Host, you will have no business if you do this!

Sure enough, the visitor said as soon as he heard it: "It's too expensive, the maximum transaction point is 2." In fact, he wanted to say 1, but Lan Ke's price was too high, and he was embarrassed to bargain too low.

Lan Ke's attitude was cold: "10 transaction points, no bargaining, you will know whether it is worth it after you eat it."

What a joke! Even if she hasn't awakened her superpowers yet and her cooking skills are no match for her peak period in her previous life, she uses a secret recipe for this roasted brain. It not only smells delicious but also has a rich flavor that will make you want to swallow your tongue after eating it. It's nothing compared to those sold outside!

How many strong men came from afar just to taste her cooking skills? The words "low price sale" never appeared in her dictionary. You can buy it if you want!

The system was so anxious that it almost cried: "It's over, it's over. This business is ruined."

Lan Ke: "Can you be more promising?"

The system was about to say something else when it suddenly heard the customer say, "I don't have that many plane points. Can I exchange them with something else?" In fact, he definitely had 10 plane points, but he was just reluctant to give them up.

Lan Ke didn't care, she just asked curiously: "What do you have?"

Upon hearing this, the guest immediately took out a bunch of mushrooms. The mushrooms were very fresh, each as big as an adult's fist, white and tender, chubby and cute, and there were exactly five in a bunch.

Lan Ke smelled the fragrance of the mushrooms and guessed that these mushrooms should be non-toxic. The system just gave the identification result at this time -

White Cloud Mushroom: A common mushroom, delicious and edible. The purchase price in the mall is 1 transaction point per piece.

Lan Ke immediately said, "It's possible to trade." These mushrooms are fresh, big in size, and taste good. You can't buy them anywhere else!

The customer was also very satisfied. White cloud mushrooms can be found as long as it has rained, so they are not rare at all. Selling 5 white cloud mushrooms to the mall only costs 5 trading points, and he exchanged them for roasted brain flowers worth 10 trading points, and he still earned 5 trading points!

However, this roasted brain flower had better taste as good as the seller said, otherwise he would definitely put this person on the blacklist and never do business with her again!

The transaction was successful, and the customer immediately left with a portion of roasted brain, apparently intending to go back to taste it.

Lan Ke quietly put the white cloud mushrooms into the container. Seeing the x5 mark displayed under the container, she raised her eyebrows and said, "System, what is the capacity of a container? Can't each container only hold one type of food?"

When the system heard Lan Ke's unfriendly tone, it immediately flattered him: "Host, you are so smart! Each container can only hold one type, and each type can hold 99 copies. Isn't it convenient?"

It's so convenient! It's convenient to take things, but there's not much space! No, she has to study it carefully when she gets back!

Just then, another customer came in: "This is the only delicacy in the world? Interesting! Give me one portion."

"10 transaction points!" Lan Ke was ready to bargain, but as soon as she finished speaking, the system prompted that the transaction was successful.

System: "Host, you are lucky. This person must be a rich man!"

Lan Ke raised her eyebrows and was about to scold the system for being useless, but the previous customer unexpectedly appeared again and generously took out three strings of white cloud mushrooms: "Give me three more!"
