MTL - Iron Armored City-Chapter 12 Materials for making aroma wine
Li Yinguang is the least worried about the sales of the 'Mambach Town Tabloid', because all the newspapers in Mambach Town are for sale, and they are the only ones like Scorpion Baba for this kind of 'free delivery'!
There is no exact figure for the total population of the town, but it is certain that it will exceed 100,000 people.
Half of them are in the slums, and there are about 20,000 to 30,000 ordinary residents. The rest are gold diggers, adventurers, and businessmen passing by.
Within a radius of thousands of kilometers, the town of Mambach is considered a lively place.
But this world is very big, not only is the world big, but the races are not relatively mixed. On the surface, humans dominate the world, but more than 80% of the human body is mixed with genes of other races.
Even among many races, there are dark and light camps. Of course, these things are not obvious in a border place like Mambach Town, and not many people care about them.
Strange mechanical reformers, mixed races, no matter which camp you belong to, as long as you abide by the rules here in Mambach Town, no one will care about you!
There are all kinds of people in the slums, and this area is also the most densely populated place in Mambach Town.
"what is this?"
When Li Yinguang came out of the newspaper office, he originally wanted to go to the opposite "Black Heart Grocery Store" to inquire about something with old man Zhou. When he came out, he saw many people setting up stalls on the street. There was a simple woven basket filled with vines of some kind of green plant, exuding a faint and very special smell.
Because she was sitting next to the door of the "Mambach Town Tabloid" newspaper office, and she could be seen from inside.
The open-air market is spontaneously organized by everyone in the slums. The "Black Heart Grocery Store" is the place with the busiest flow of people in the entire slum. Not only people from the slums will come here, but people from outside towns will also come, including those hunters. Adventurers, explorers, scavengers and so on, so this place has become a hub to communicate with the outside world.
Perhaps there is also old man Zhou's plan in it. This 'hypocritical person' doesn't mind setting up a stall in front of the 'Black Heart Grocery Store'.
As he said to Li Yinguang, who said there are no good things in the slums?
The problem is that many times, the people in the slums themselves don't know that the things in their hands are good things and what value they have.
If there is a channel that can be sold at a stall, someone will take out the item. At this time, people with good eyesight can get high returns from it!
There is no doubt that old man Zhou is such a sharp-sighted person!
At the beginning, there were not many people who set up stalls, but later the reputation spread and became a rule, and the number of people began to increase, and even attracted many people from outside the slums to come and hang out.
Although the consumption level of people in the slums is not very good, it is not that there is no consumption. They all need to eat, drink and sleep, so the necessary consumption is also indispensable. If you walk too much at night, you will inevitably get rich, and this place will become A permanent bazaar in a slum.
The business hours are generally in the afternoon at sunset and at dusk, and then gradually close after dark. The business hours are not long, because there are not many things that can be sold.
Tax officials hardly set foot in slum markets, and even if they did, it was always the old man Zhou from the 'black-hearted grocery store' who came forward to manage them.
The security is okay, but it is messy!
"Sweet grass and vines, boiled water and drink can relieve hunger."
The little girl hugged her legs, said timidly in her voice.
‘Purple vine, with small yellow and white flowers, high sugar content, long and slender aroma, has certain medicinal value, edible, and is a rare material for wine making and fragrance! '
Li Yinguang only noticed her because of the 'mysterious gem' hint stitched in his heart.
He squatted down, stretched out his hand and tried to break it off, but it didn't break off.
The little girl, whose face was covered in mud, grinned at Li Yinguang, showing her small canine teeth: "The skin of the sweet grass vine is very thick, and it needs a knife or an iron rod to break it."
As he said that, he picked up the hooked sickle placed by his feet, cut it off by about ten centimeters from the basket, and handed it to Li Yinguang.
"The juice inside is sweet, try it!"
Li Yinguang took it, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, there was an indescribable fragrance, how should I put it, this is the kind of questioning that can be addicted to smelling!
A rare material for brewing fragrance?
Thinking in his eyes, he asked, "Where did you collect this 'sweet grass vine'?"
The little girl was stunned for a moment, bit her lip, put away her smile and shook her head stubbornly: "I can't tell you that."
Li Yinguang smiled and said, "Why can't you tell me?"
"If you pick it too, how can I sell it?" The little girl pouted.
"How much is this basket of 'Sweet Grass Vine'?"
"Twenty copper bull coins!"
Li Yinguang nodded with flickering eyes: "Okay, I bought this basket of 'Sweet Grass Vine'. In addition, you can gather your friends or family members around to collect this 'Sweet Grass Vine'. I will buy a large number of them, okay?"
"A large number of acquisitions? How much do you want to acquire?"
The little girl has obviously never encountered this kind of "big deal". Although the "Sweet Grass Vine" is not easy to find, it is not impossible to find it, because the price is not expensive, it is a little rare, and it can be used as food, which makes people feel happy. It has some value.
Twenty copper bull coins weigh more than ten to twenty catties, which is enough to prove that it is not a precious and scarce thing.
"I'll buy as much as you can collect, and I can give you two silver bull coins as a deposit." Li Yinguang said here~www.novelbuddy.com~He stopped, he understood the reason for the crime of pregnant bi, and said Maybe the two silver bulls will harm the little girl instead. The slums are not a peaceful place, so I changed my words and said: "I won't give you the deposit, as long as you bring someone to bring 'sweet grass vine', I will buy it and talk to you." count!"
"it is good!"
The little girl happily agreed, took twenty copper bull coins from the housekeeper Goda, skipped and ran away without even a basket.
"Master, there are a lot of woods and hills to the west of Sweet Grass Teng Town, and they are not of much value." Butler Goda reminded.
Li Yinguang smiled and said thoughtfully: "Whether it is worth it or not depends on who owns it."
In the simplest way, a straw tied to cabbage is the price of cabbage, and tied to hairy crabs is the price of hairy crabs.
If 'Sweet Grass Vine' is only boiled and drunk, it can be used as food at most, but if it is made into spices and brewed into wine, it will be valuable.
The high value depends on what product it can become!
It's not appropriate to send people out to collect, and I can't tell the energy of that manpower for the time being. Anyway, it's all money, so it's better to just spend money for peace of mind.
The important thing is that he thinks the little girl hits it off with him!
"Brother, Fool Li bought my sweet grass and vines. He also said that tomorrow he will take people to pick sweet grass and vines. He will buy as many sweet grass and vines as he collects!"
Xiaoman ran into a simple courtyard in a slum, screaming happily, he was completely different from the timid little girl in front of Li Yinguang just now.
There was not only one person in the yard, more than a dozen half-grown children gathered together, as if they were discussing something.
The leader is Brother Xiaoman Scarface, who may have a name but no one knows what it is. He has a disfiguring scar on his face, so everyone calls him Scarface.
