Chapter 3078 Unexpected
Ji Xiaoyan’s idea was simple, but when she arrived and saw such a crowd, there were also many people walking with soldiers in military uniforms, she But he couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but the federal soldiers following Ji Xiaoyan didn't show any surprise at all, but looked like they were used to it.
"What's going on here?" Ji Xiaoyan looked at it for a long time, and after seeing that no one noticed them at all, he still couldn't help but ask the federal soldiers following behind him. : "I thought I was the only one who would be followed."
"We are still different from them!" The federal soldiers said to Ji Xiaoyan indifferently, "Miss Ji, please pay attention. The epaulettes on their shoulders are the same as ours They are all different! They are ordinary federal soldiers who can be hired by anyone in Qiyu City. Some of them should be here to protect the people in the army. Now in Qiyu City, some powerful people want to It's extremely normal to bring some federal soldiers for protection!"
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier? I thought I was special!" Ji Xiaoyan suddenly felt a little embarrassed and couldn't help it. I couldn't help but say something to those federal soldiers.
"We thought you just didn't like us following, Miss Ji!" Those federal soldiers also looked puzzled and said something to Ji Xiaoyan. They also looked at her with an uncomfortable expression, and then hurriedly said: "Miss Ji, what do you want to see? Let's take you there, and we'll save you a detour!"
“I don’t have anything in particular I want to see, so I’ll just stroll around!” Ji Xiaoyan shook his head and looked around for a few times, but randomly chose a direction with a lot of people and took the people directly. I didn't expect to go over there, but after I went there, I discovered that there was a place selling some fruits and vegetables.
In today's world, whether it is fruits, vegetables or fresh meat of animals, poultry and fish, as long as it is natural, it is definitely a very popular and high-priced product. There are many people who want to eat it, but the real To ensure that every meal is full, it still costs a lot of federal coins! Of course, there are naturally many rich people, but for really rich people, the channels for them to buy these things cannot be in shopping malls like this, because they have direct supply sources.
So, the things Ji Xiaoyan can see now are just the leftovers. But even for things like this, they are still high-priced and in-demand goods. If there are many people looking at them, there are also many people buying them.
Ji Xiaoyan looked with some curiosity at the various vegetables and meats that were all divided into portions, packed in vacuum glass jars, and placed on the counter shelves with prices marked. Looking at the price again, I can’t help but feel a little bit stunned! Just a serving of vegetables is worth tens of thousands of federal coins! Who can afford this?
"Almost all at this price!" Yu Qisi heard Ji Xiaoyan's muttering and whispered to her: "These are all naturally grown, not the synthetic vegetables and meats you usually eat. The price is naturally extraordinary.”
“But the price is really too high. A meal like this would cost tens of thousands of federal coins! Come on?" Ji Xiaoyan couldn't help but said in surprise.
“That’s why there are synthetic vegetables and meats!” Yu Qisi suddenly laughed and said to Ji Xiaoyan: “Actually, these natural vegetables and meats are not much different from synthetic ones. The difference is that there is some difference in taste, but from a nutritional point of view, it is still synthetic But despite this, there are still many people who are more fond of such things, probably because they think that rare things are more expensive. So even though these things are very expensive now and the portions are not much, people still don’t buy them. "Little!"
Ji Xiaoyan nodded, but he understood the truth! Some people always think that natural ones are better! This is probably just a kind of psychology!
Walking along the counter, Ji Xiaoyan really found that those things were becoming more expensive than each other. He couldn't help but said with some confusion: "Aren't these things very expensive?" Is it difficult to grow? ”
Otherwise, how could it be so expensive?
"Yes! Just cultivating it requires a lot of money and manpower!" Yu Qisi nodded affirmatively and said to Ji Xiaoyan: "I know that the Yu family also has a cultivation center. Yes, the investment is huge, but each planting can only produce a few vegetables. We have always been unable to make ends meet, but The people in the family are still enthusiastic about it!”
“Why?” Ji Xiaoyan couldn’t figure it out and couldn’t help but frown and asked Yu Qisi: “Since they are all losing money! "Why continue?"
"This is a manifestation of strength!" Yu Qisi was serious. He said to Shu Yun, "There are very few cultivations that are truly profitable, that's why these things are sold so expensive! And being able to grow these things, or raise so many things, is in itself A reflection of a family's strength, even if it can't afford it in the end, it doesn't matter! Those equipment and investments are all available! Most of them are sold at one time, and the family is willing to buy them."
Ji Xiaoyan was really surprised by the news. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but quietly asked Yu Qisi: " Is it really that difficult to just grow some vegetables? There are so many places in the Federation, right?”
As long as there are seeds, how can it be possible that nothing can be grown?
“In ancient times, there were no difficulties. At that time, people made a living through farming. But in our world today, there is a lot of soil, but very few can grow anything!” Yu Qi Si looked at Ji Xiaoyan seriously and said to her: "Today's soil, except for some plants containing toxins, cannot grow anything we can eat." Damn it! Without these raw materials, grains, etc., it would be impossible to raise animals and birds that can be eaten! This is a cycle. "
"If that's the case, then what we eat now. How are synthetic things made? What raw materials are used?" When Ji Xiaoyan heard this, he couldn't help but frowned and looked at Yu Qisi and asked.
Think about it, no matter what kind of food it is, since it needs to be synthesized, it naturally requires raw materials! This raw material must be edible, right?
“We use some plants that grow in the wilderness and have relatively low toxins!” Yu Qisi thought for a while and said to Ji Xiaoyan: “We don’t know the specific process, but all Everyone in the federation knows that after the plants in the wilderness are brought to the federation for selection, they will be grown on a large scale, and then the toxins will be extracted and used for the production of synthetic food!"
< br>
"In other words, we actually eat those plants in the wilderness, right?" Ji Xiaoyan thought for a while, but then said to Yu Qisi: "In this case, why doesn't the federal government just give those plants to us?" After removing the toxins, let everyone eat it?"
"Because the taste is difficult to eat!" Yu Qisi smiled and said to Ji Xiaoyan: "And those plants growing in the wilderness are so big. Some of them are liked by mutant beasts, and the smell is not good either. If you don’t If it is processed, no one can bear it! The food synthesized by the federal government not only contains more nutrients, but also has a texture and taste that is acceptable to everyone, and the price is also reasonable. This is naturally the best choice. "
Ji Xiaoyan thought about the things she usually ate, nodded in agreement, and stopped asking any more questions. She looked at all the counters and then continued following the crowd. Going to other places, we finally stopped at a flower and grass trading area. "Miss Xiaoyan, do you want to buy some flowers and plants?" Yu Qisi looked at the interest on Ji Xiaoyan's face and couldn't help but ask her: "These flowers and plants are quite good. If Miss Xiaoyan likes them, you can choose some."
Ji Xiaoyan really wanted to choose some, but when she saw the prices of those flowers and plants, she couldn't help but shake her head.
A pot of plants with two or three leaves costs close to 100,000 federal coins. Ji Xiaoyan doesn't think he is willing to spend such a luxury product, let alone flowers with flowers or buds. , the price made Ji Xiaoyan dare not get close.
“Even potted flowers are so expensive!”
“These are carefully cultivated flowers and plants. The soil they use is the kind that can be used to grow vegetables. After many processes, the flowers in the soil are The toxins and all kinds of things that are not suitable for the growth of the seeds have been removed, which is naturally very expensive!" Yu Qisi said. Face to face Ji Xiaoyan said matter-of-factly, "There are very few places in the Federation that can produce such soil."
Ji Xiaoyan feels that this trip has really gained a lot of knowledge. Along the way, I asked Yu Qisi a lot about everything I could and wanted to ask, and I got to know the world of the Federation better.
But in the end, when Yu Qisi wanted Ji Xiaoyan to buy some plants to plant, Ji Xiaoyan still shook his head and said no: "These things just look very delicate, and I don't have time to buy them back." Reason, forget it! If you really want to raise it, you might as well go to the wilderness to find some plants and raise them later! That should be easy, right?”
When Yu Qisi heard what Ji Xiaoyan said, he was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said to Ji Xiaoyan: "But Miss Xiaoyan, although there are some plants growing in the wilderness, most of them are ordinary people and we are not I can’t afford these flowers and plants. If you want to keep them, just buy a few pots and take them home. Yes! I brought a federal bank card!”
“No, I’ll just go find some plants to grow in the wilderness!” Ji Xiaoyan insisted and said to Yu Qisi: "I don't have time to take care of these delicate things, so I'll just find some easy-to-live plants to raise. , Just take a look! Besides, I haven’t seen what the plants in the wilderness look like.”
“It won’t look too good!” Yu Qisi couldn’t bear it. Zhu sighed and said to Ji Xiaoyan: "The plants outside the wilderness don't smell very good either." "
"Just go and have a look, I don't have to raise anything anyway!" Ji Xiaoyan smiled, said something to Yu Qisi, and then motioned for everyone to go back. , anyway, when she looked at these things, she didn’t particularly like them, so it was just fine to go shopping.
But Ji Xiaoyan never expected that when she went back, she would meet someone she never expected.
"Liang Li?" Ji Xiaoyan looked at the smiling face of Liu Li who appeared in front of him. He never expected that he would appear here: "Why are you here?"
To be precise, Ji Xiaoyan couldn't figure out why Nightmare Foil would appear in Qiyu City.
“Xiaoyan!” Yan Feiliuli smiled, his eyes fell on Ji Xiaoyan, and said to her: “I just looked like you from a distance, so I came over to take a look! I thought I was wrong, but I didn’t expect that I was right!”
“Liu Li, why are you in Qiyu City? This is a frontline city!” Ji Xiaoyan still looked at Yan Fei in surprise! Liuli asked.
"Come to do something!" Nightmare Liangliang didn't mean to say more. He looked at Ji Xiaoyan with a smile: "Xiaoyan, how long have you been in Qiyu City? It's not safe here. When will you leave? What?”
leave? Ji Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment, and smiled at the nightmare, showing no intention of answering: "When did you come, Liuli? Is this matter finished?"
"Almost! Originally, it was done. I have to leave, but there are some other things that have delayed my departure, so I may not be able to leave for a few days!" Nightmare Liangli had a smile on his face. Yun Danfengqing said to Ji Xiaoyan: "Xiaoyan, where do you live? We haven't seen each other for a long time. How about I invite you to have something to eat and we can catch up on old times?"
"Miss Ji!" Before Ji Xiaoyan could reply, the federal soldiers following her couldn't help but shout at Ji Xiaoyan. They knew about the matter of Yan Fei Liang, and naturally they knew that strangers had told them to try to avoid Ji Xiaoyan and Yan Fei Liang meeting each other. But since this meeting was such a chance encounter, there was nothing they could do to stop it. However, Yan Feiliuli wanted to ask Ji Xiaoyan out, but they couldn't let him succeed again!
Otherwise, they will definitely be punished later!
When Ji Xiaoyan heard the voices of those federal soldiers, he couldn't help but glance at them. Looking at the expressions on their faces, he understood that they should be telling him to go back quickly, but they didn't. Thinking too much, he smiled directly at Yan Fei Liuli, and then said: "I've been out for a little too long, I'm afraid I have to go back!"
"That'll be fine next time!" Nightmare Liangliang said to Ji Xiaoyan perseveringly, "I can stay for a few more days! Xiaoyan, let's exchange communication numbers and contact us then, okay?"
