Chapter 6436 I'm not buying anymore
She can eat three of these palm-sized foods.
One bamboo shoot costs 50,000 interstellar coins, three cost 150,000 interstellar coins, and you eat three meals a day. Damn, I can't even calculate this. Before she got married, she worked in a pharmacy and earned 2,000 interstellar coins a month.
Bamboo shoots are ridiculously expensive.
"Why is it so expensive?" Luo Bi asked.
The Thunderflame Warrior at the stall said, "These are collected from the mountains. There are no more bamboo shoots left on the edge of the safe zone. Monsters roam the mountains, and digging for bamboo shoots is life-threatening. This is the price for autumn bamboo shoots."
Luo Bi noticed the yellow bamboo shoots next to her and asked, "What about these?"
"One hundred thousand interstellar coins each." The Thunderflame Warrior didn't even blink.
Luo Bi: "..."
"One bamboo shoot costs 100,000 interstellar coins. I might as well go into the mountains and dig one up to eat." Luo Bi was shocked by the price. "Nothing worthwhile, how can it be so expensive? Even eating the Imperial Concubine Pearl isn't this expensive."
“Hahaha…” Thunderflame Warrior laughed: “Nutritious and energy-rich ingredients are expensive to begin with, let alone fresh ingredients like this. Bamboo shoots are relatively rare. You can buy them on Blazing Bamboo Star, maybe they’ll be cheaper.”
Chizhu Star is far away, who would go there? Luo Bi doesn't have the time.
Luo Bi called Wei Tuo away, saying they wouldn't buy anything else and would go look at other things. There were plenty of fresh ingredients in Zhuoxing's underground city, and because they were wild, they were of uneven size. Some children were even selling wild vegetables.
You can't ask about the price; it just makes you angry.
Nutritious ingredients are indeed scarce, but they shouldn't be this expensive. Are they really that hard to get? They're right outside the safe zone, yet they're so pricey. Luo Bi was curious about how much the wild vegetables cost, so she went over to ask.
"How much are the wild vegetables?" The child recognized Luo Bi and had seen her digging for wild vegetables before. The child said, "Don't buy them. You can dig some outside the safe zone and have a meal. Buying them with interstellar coins is too expensive."
"How many interstellar coins?" Wei Tuo recognized the child and asked.
Luo Bi could tell that the two children knew each other. The children's hands were small, and when they grabbed a handful, it looked insipid and not real. The children told the truth: "Just this handful, five hundred interstellar coins."
Luo Bi: "..."
These wild vegetables look wilted and not good at all.
Wei Tuo was also taken aback, and discussed with Luo Bi, "Let's go dig up wild vegetables to sell too."
Luo Bi pointed to the rabbit ear vegetables on a stall not far away: "How much are those rabbit ear vegetables in interstellar coins per bunch? They taste good and look decent too. They're better than yours with white flowers."
The kid glanced at it and said, "That kind, five thousand interstellar coins a piece."
Luo Bi was furious. There weren't even ten vegetables in one bunch, let alone a pound or ounce. They were ridiculously expensive. She told Wei Tuo to leave. If you want nutritious ingredients, it's more cost-effective to collect them yourself. You can't afford to buy them.
We can't just not buy anything, we're out of seasonings.
After entering the spice shop, Luo Bi spent 100,000 interstellar coins to buy several kinds of spices, counting them one by one. She felt that she didn't have enough interstellar coins to spend, and no matter how much she earned, it wouldn't be enough to buy nutritious and energy-rich ingredients.
They shopped with great enthusiasm, but returned home dejected.
Seeing that Luo Bi looked listless, Wei Tong said, "I have a card."
Luo Bi drove away from the underground city in her sports car. She was trying to keep a low profile, but no, you can't be high-profile at all. She wasn't afraid of being overheard and chatted with Wei Tong the whole way.
"From now on, when we go to dig for wild vegetables, we won't eat them if we can't find any." Luo Bi said angrily.
Wei Ting was easy to talk to. After returning home, Luo Bi called Wei Ting out of the safe zone.
There weren't many wild vegetables left at the edge of the safe zone. If there were any, it would take a long time to find edible ones. There was some wormwood, but it wasn't edible. Luo Bi and Wei Tu picked and chose, digging up half a basketful to take back. (End of Chapter)
