Chapter 150: Magic Continent Opening a Shop
The next day.
When the sky was bright, Sang Chu walked downstairs. Just as he was about to open the door to sell some fruits and vegetables, Sang Jing Wen and Xiao Yi Fei came down.
“Little sister, why are you alone?”
“Xiao Xue is in the training room, and Min Feng said he’d go see. This morning, I told Liu Sang about Brother Yi and Min Feng wanting to go out of the city to hunt. He said he’d help us apply and then left, telling me to wait here for him.”
Sang Jing Wen: “Apply for what?”
Sang Chu shrugged: “Who knows? Never mind, Brother, can you guys help me clear these things first? I’m going to set up some things to sell here later.”
As Xiao Yi Fei walked over, he helped her move things and asked in a low voice, “Are you really going to sell them?”
These things seemed to not exist in the world of no magic. He was a little worried about being targeted.
Sang Chu said: “Yes.”
Sang Jing Wen knew what his sister meant, but with ears behind every wall, he could only send a private message to Xiao Yi Fei: The more people know, the safer Little Sister will be. Don’t worry, you and Lu Min Feng are going out of the city later, so be careful.
I know!
Speaking of which, he suddenly remembered something: “Little sister, Brother has something to ask you.”
Sang Chu stopped what he was doing and looked at the fruit stalls that had just been set up, smiling: “Brother Yi, I’m keeping your matter in mind. I’ve already asked Wei An to help you concoct medicine. However, some medicines require the blood of magic beasts as an ingredient. So, when you go out later, try to collect as much fresh magic beast blood as possible for him to try.”
“That’s great! You wait, Brother will go out and slaughter for you!”
When Liu Sang arrived with a team of demon hunters, he happened to overhear their conversation. Knowing that they were really going out to hunt, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Sang: “Your Highness, these are the demon hunters. Your two brothers can go out of the city to hunt with them. However, you must return before sunset, otherwise, the town gates will close after sunset, and you won’t be able to get in.”
Xiao Yi Fei: “Of course! I still have to bring fresh magic beasts back for my sister. Let’s go, let’s go, don’t waste time.”
Sang Jing Wen grabbed the anxious Xiao Yi Fei and said helplessly, “Min Feng is still upstairs, what are you rushing for?”
After speaking, he looked at the group of people outside the door and smiled: “You gentlemen probably haven’t had breakfast yet, come in first. It’s still time to go out of the city after breakfast. Little sister, ask the kitchen to stir-fry a few more small dishes.”
“Okay, I’ll go now.”
After saying that, Sang Chu walked towards the kitchen. Liu Sang, upon hearing that they were invited to breakfast, eagerly walked in, but politely said, “Then thank you for your hospitality, Your Highness.”
Sang Jing Wen: “We should be thanking you for your care. Everyone, come in.”
The demon hunters were a bit confused as to why Liu Sang was so eager to go in for breakfast. For them, eating was just to fill their stomachs. If they weren’t hungry, they really wouldn’t want to eat, because the ingredients here were either inedible or unpalatable, so the dishes they cooked were all worse than the last.
But when the dishes and chopsticks flew over, the group of people’s eyes widened.
“What are these red and white things?”
“Can these green leaves be eaten?”
“Your Highness, we are people who are going out of the city with you later, don’t tease us!”
Liu Sang glanced at them. While they were hesitant to start, he quickly took several bites of greens and sugar-mixed tomatoes.
His eyes grew brighter as he ate. These sugar-mixed tomatoes were so sweet and delicious!
He couldn’t help but eat more and more, finishing almost a whole dish. Only then did a demon hunter reach out and snatch the last piece.
“Lord Liu Sang, you’re not being fair! You’re eating all the delicious food by yourself!”
After saying that, he reached for the other dishes with his chopsticks. They had never known that green leaves could be so delicious. The green leaves here were either bitter and astringent, old and tough, or they had elves in them and were inedible.
“Your Highness, where did you get these things? Why are they so delicious and don’t have that fishy smell like elves?”
The fishy smell they were referring to was the blood of elves. In the magic world, anything could become an elf, even roadside stones could be elves.
Once injured, they would bleed, and this blood was both fishy and smelly. Normal people couldn’t stand the smell, let alone eat it.
Sang Chu: “I am a cultivator. These are things I accelerated the growth of using seeds, so they haven’t hatched any elves and are edible.”
“No wonder. As expected of someone from a big city, it’s so different from our small place. I must visit Rose City if I have the chance!”
Sang Chu: “Okay, you’re welcome to visit.”
After eating their fill, Lu Min Feng and Xiao Yi Fei went out of the city with a group of demon hunters, while Sang Chu and Sang Jing Wen were still busy with opening the shop.
Liu Sang: “Doesn’t Your Highness Sang worry about them?”
Sang Chu: “My two brothers have good strength, and with these demon hunters brought by Lord Liu Sang, I believe they will return safely.”
Liu Sang looked at her expression and found it a bit strange, but her words didn’t seem to be wrong. They had traveled from Rose City to this remote small town, and it wouldn’t have been possible without some strength.
Thinking this, he felt he was overthinking. It didn’t matter what happened to those people, as long as Sang Chu remained within their monitoring range.
Suddenly, he saw Sang Chu take out many fresh fruits and vegetables from his storage ring and place them at the entrance, and he was stunned.
“Your Highness is planning to sell fruits and vegetables?”
“Yes, do you want to buy some?”
Liu Sang hesitated, but then thought that since Sang Chu was a cultivator, these should be edible.
It wasn’t that these things didn’t exist on the Magic Continent, they just weren’t edible.
Sang Chu cut apples, pomelos, and grapes, and washed them clean, placing them in the tasting area nearby: “This is the tasting area. Lord Liu Sang can try some. If you don’t like them, you don’t have to buy them.”
“Tasting?”
Liu Sang slowly walked over. The cut fruits emitted a sweet fragrance, with no fishy smell at all.
He swallowed hard, then bit into a small piece of grape.
Ugh!
“Delicious, so sweet! Your Highness Sang, how much are these? Give me some, no, I’ll take everything you have here!”
Looking at the few bunches of grapes, Liu Sang gritted his teeth and prepared to buy them all.
Sang Chu smiled: “Lord Liu Sang, although we are close, these things take a lot of effort.”
As he spoke, he leaned close to Liu Sang’s ear and said, “Although these can’t compare to flowers in aiding cultivation, the difficulty in cultivating them is no less than that of flowers. Therefore, I might charge a bit more.”
“It’s fine, Your Highness Sang, tell me, how many crystal coins are these!”
“One crystal coin per bunch of grapes.”
The smile on Liu Sang’s face froze, but then he thought about it. These things were indeed rare, and one crystal coin wasn’t too expensive: “Alright, I’ll take all the grapes here, and this, this, wrap them all up for me!”
