MTL - Necromancers Are Frantically Stationing Troops In the Apocalypse-Chapter 225 , wow so cool

Chapter 225, wow, it’s so cool

 The supply of food in the city is mainly in the hands of the human race.

 Although orcs also engage in farming, their proportion is smaller. They are better at hunting. The main items sold in the city are animal meat and furs.

 Humans are better at farming, and coupled with plant-based magic and potions, they have greatly increased food production.

 Hence, the price of food in the city is not expensive.

Minnie took Wu Heng a few steps and saw a shop.

“When Sister Wei’er and I went home, we all stopped here to buy food. The prices of food in the city are about the same,” Minnie said.

Wu Heng looked towards the shop opposite.

 The size of the store is not large.

 Compared with the shops on both sides of it, it looks very narrow.

 It feels more like a house added by blocking the original alley.

 Minnie walked in directly with Wu Heng and a few skeletons.

 A middle-aged boss with a round face was leaning on the counter and falling asleep.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he looked up.

　　"Minnie is here..." Just halfway through speaking, his eyes glanced at Wu Heng and the five guards behind him.

 Immediately smiled and came out.

He said: "Guest, you have come at the right time. The road to the city has just been opened. This batch of food is the latest and highest quality. I guarantee that you will be satisfied."

The boss was separated by skeletons, but he still kept up with the introduction.

“We supply all the taverns in the city, and the prices are absolutely fair.”

“If you are going to buy something for a gentleman in the inner city, I can recommend you some better varieties, and you won’t have to waste your time.”

 There are samples on display in the store.

 They are all grains and flour.

The staple foods of people in this world are bread and pancakes. Humans are fond of bread, while orcs eat all kinds of pancakes.

 As for cereals, they are mainly used to make porridge.

  A small bag of rye costs 36.8 copper coins, and a full bag costs 73.6 copper coins.

  A small bag of barley costs 52.5 copper coins, and a full bag costs 105 copper coins.

 Wheat….

 Pryme flour….

 barley flour….

  A small bag of wheat flour is 85.5 copper coins, and a full bag is 171 copper coins.

 Whether it is grain or flour, it is packed in special cloth bags.

 The small bag weighs about 50 kilograms, while the large bag weighs 100 kilograms.

 It weighs about the same as modern rice.

 Seeing this price, Wu Heng was also very happy.

 Copper coins!

 The terms of exchange between him and Li Yahong were gold.

 You can make a lot of money by coming back and forth.

“Minnie said the quality of your food is very good.” At this time, Wu Heng said calmly.

"Miss Minnie is careful and smart, and she will definitely not say anything casually." The boss followed up and said, "The quality of my food is indeed the best in the neighborhood."

Wu Heng continued: "Can it be cheaper to buy more?"

“It depends on how much you buy. If you buy in bulk, it will naturally be cheaper than the retail price.” The boss continued.

"how much do you have?"

The boss frowned slightly, feeling that the other person's tone was a bit loud.

But he still said: "We have a local granary and several branches. How much you need can just tell you and I can quote you a price."

“I want five thousand bags of each of these types of flour.”

Forehead….

 The boss looked blank and said, "There's not that much, sir. The total stock of flour in the warehouse and store is less than 2,000 bags."

 “Why so little?” Wu Heng asked.

Just now he claimed that he had enough food, but now he claims that the quantity is not enough.

The boss was also a little embarrassed, and immediately explained: "Guest, the war has just ended, and we didn't dare to bring so much stock, but if you really need it, it will only take us three days to restock."

"Okay, let's count these two thousand bags. If the price is right, I will take them all." Wu Heng said directly.

"OK."

 The boss did not expect that such a big customer would come today.

 He agreed with a smile on his face, and then asked the people in the store to go to the warehouse to count the amount of flour.

 I poured tea for several people.

 Not long after, the statistician came back.

The boss sat aside and began to calculate the price and said: "Guest, I have charged you a total of 242 silver coins, but I can charge you 240 silver coins."

“220, I will pay you now, and you can continue to purchase the flour in the future. I will still charge this price for this kind of flour.” Wu Heng said.

 The boss stood there and hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and agreed, "Okay, you plan to buy it for a long time, and Miss Minnie brought it, so I will give you this price."

Wu Heng casually took out his money bag, counted out the corresponding silver coins, and placed them on the counter.

 “Send all the flour to Ketolai grocery store.”

 “Okay, customer!” The boss put the money away and immediately called for people to start delivering the goods.

Wu Heng watched them loading the goods onto the carts and transporting them to the grocery store opposite.

Also took Minnie away.

 “He called me Miss Minnie~!” Minnie looked happy.

 “What’s so fun about this?”

 “This is the first time someone calls me that. I’ve never heard of it before.”

“After this time, he will always call you like this.” Wu Heng put his arm around her shoulders and walked towards the backyard of the grocery store.

 …

 Backyard.

 Minnie went to the front hall to help Anderweil sell goods.

Wu Heng stood in the yard and watched the workers pile bags of flour in the yard.

 After everything is shipped over.

 Said to the fox tribe in the yard: "You stay outside first and don't let others come in."

 The fox tribe in the yard bowed slightly.

 They all left the yard and stood guard outside the back door.

Wu Heng used the warehouse door to open the boundary door, commanded the skeleton to move the flour to the zombie world, and then moved all the daily necessities collected from the other side.

 About half an hour later, all the flour in the courtyard was turned into pots and pans in cardboard boxes.

 “You guys come in.” Wu Heng shouted.

 The fox tribe outside the door came in.

Wu Heng said: "These are newly delivered goods. Let's tell Anderweil when the time comes."

 “Yes, sir!”

　　The people from the fox clan nodded and didn’t ask any more questions.

Wu Heng nodded, said goodbye to a few people, and left here directly.

 …

 When I returned to my residence, it was already afternoon.

 The laying of photovoltaic panels is faster than imagined.

When Wu Heng returned, not only had the photovoltaic panels been laid, but the air conditioners and chandeliers in the building had also been installed. It’s just that there are some open wires. You can see wires on the roof and walls.

But there’s nothing we can do about it, and we can’t bury the wires through slots in the wall now.

 It doesn’t matter, as long as the electrical appliances can be used.

 Except for the lightbulb above your head.

 The big piece in the living room is the vertical air conditioner in the corner.

Wu Heng picked up the remote control and tried it.

With a beeping sound, the air conditioner turned on.

 After adjusting the temperature, a cool breeze blew out.

 It really works.

 My heart was instantly happy.

 Turn off the air conditioner and continue to try the chandeliers in several rooms.

Modern light bulbs are brighter than props etched with light effects, which are still not so obvious during the day.

 After checking it over, Wu Heng was quite satisfied.

 Turn off all electrical appliances.

 Open the gate and go to the zombie world.

 Command the skeleton to carry all the flour to the warehouse.

 It is autumn now, and rainy weather is more frequent.

 If you put it outside, it might get caught in the rain the next day, which would be a troublesome thing.

 It’s better to be careful.

 After all, these flours play a vital role in my follow-up plan for the shelter.

 …

  Return again.

 Minnie and Andwyer were already in the kitchen making breakfast.

Wu Heng went downstairs and turned on the air conditioner.

A cool breeze blew out from the air conditioner, gradually lowering the temperature in the room.

 “Wow, why is it so cool?”

 “Yes, where is the cool breeze coming from?”

 In the kitchen, the two women immediately heard exclamations.

Anderweil poked her head out of the kitchen, her eyes falling on the air conditioner, "Master, is this a new magic prop?"

Minnie also looked out, "What magic props? Let me take a look."

 “Technological props, capable of cooling.”

 The two women came out of the kitchen and stood at the air conditioner.

 “Wow, it’s so cool!”

 “It’s great to have money….”

Standing there sighed for several times before returning to the kitchen to continue preparing dinner.

 But there is air conditioning to cool down, and the temperature in the kitchen is not that high.

 The two of them can also feel more relaxed.

 …

 Not long after, Wen Mansha also came back from outside.

As soon as I opened the door, a blast of cool air hit my face.

"Did you prepare dry ice? It's so cool." Wen Mansha said as she took off her coat.

 The skeleton behind him is still holding a large stack of house deeds in his hands.

It seems that there are still many people selling their houses today.

After changing into a long skirt, Mansha Wen turned her attention to the air conditioner and asked, "A new magic prop? It still has this effect."

"Wearing such thin clothes, don't stand in front and blow, be careful of catching a cold." Wu Heng said.

Wen Mansha came back, sat in Wu Heng's arms, and continued: "The iron pipe has been erected not far from the city wall. What should we do next?"

"Tomorrow, I will arrange for the skeleton to go over for you and put some things on it." Wu Heng said while hugging the other party.

"good!"

 The two continued to talk about the following events.

 Supper was served, and the four of them sat together and started eating.

 Perhaps the lighting time is relatively short.

 After dinner, while Minnie was training, the air conditioner stopped working due to insufficient power supply.

 The temperature in the room immediately became a bit stuffy.

It was getting dark too, so they took a bath together and went back to the room to rest.

 …

 The next day, association.

Wu Heng pushed the door open and entered the lounge, and saw Duke sitting on a chair eating cakes.

　　　Gurgling, the crumbs fell all over the ground.

“Captain, Glasker is back, let me ask you if you still need to customize that kind of leather armor?” Duke said directly.

Grask is the owner of the Maoxue Armor Shop. He left during the Warhammer Party, but now he is back.

Wu Heng sat on the chair and thought for a moment, then asked: "Is the weapons store opposite open?"

 “It’s open for business, but there’s nothing in it.”

“Duke, please go over and ask the owners of these two stores to come over. I’ll talk to them about some cooperation matters.” Wu Heng said directly.

 “Oh, good captain.”

Duke put the bread in his arms and strode out the door.

 …

 When Duke came back again, he was followed by two shop owners.

When the orc boss Mao Xiu saw Wu Heng, he immediately smiled, took out a slender wooden box from his arms, brought it over and said: "Captain, when I returned to the tribe, I happened to collect a tendril of the 'Treasure Root Branch'. It can replenish blood and strengthen strength. You can take it back and try it.”

Wu Heng glanced at the wooden box.

He has never heard of treasure root branch tendrils, and it doesn't sound like a serious medicinal material.

"Thank you." Wu Heng thanked him, motioned for the two of them to sit down first, and continued: "You should have heard about the situation here."

 Local businessmen are closely connected with gangs and mercenary groups.

Wuheng occupied half of the city, everyone knew it, and they must have heard about it.

 The two orc bosses looked at each other, and Boss Maoxiu said, "I've heard a little bit about it."

Wu Heng nodded and continued: "We are old friends. Let me tell you straight away. I need to form my own patrol team and army. I hope to cooperate with you in terms of armor and weapons."

 Before coming, I had some guesses in my mind.

But after hearing it with their own ears, the two of them felt excited instantly.

 Ordering one or two pieces may not be a big deal.

 Cooperate with Wu Heng to arm new patrols and troops.

  Meaning that in the contest between Wu Heng and the city lord ‘Elno’, he sided with Wu Heng.

 This… is not a good thing.

“How are you two thinking about it?”

Wu Heng looked at the two of them with a smile.

   Thanks to 08a for the tip
