Chapter 5: Not being taken advantage of
Baitao looked all the way down, picked and picked, and bought two hundred kilograms of rice that had lost its best taste due to improper storage.
It should have cost one thousand mall coins, but with a 1.5% discount, it only cost one hundred and fifty mall coins.
What a deal! ! !
Baitao clicked to confirm, and after seeing the real thing, her eyebrows turned into crescents.
Not to mention that it just lost the best taste, it only cost 150 coins, even if there are some rice bugs, it is not a big problem.
There were so many things on sale that Baitao's hands felt itchy just looking at them. Fortunately, she knew that she didn't have much money and had to spend it wisely, so she managed to restrain herself from the frenzied shopping.
20% off on salt?
Let’s get fifty pounds first.
It’s impossible for people not to eat salt.
Baitao, who traveled from Blue Star China, doesn't think salt needs any shelf life. It's just that the iodine was lost due to improper storage. It doesn't matter.
Peanut oil with a shelf life of fifty-five days is only 40 yuan per barrel and weighs twenty kilograms. You must buy it.
Traveling takes a lot of energy, and you can't do anything without fuel.
If you buy five barrels, for so many people, even if they live frugally, they will not be able to eat for half a month.
After eating the oil, there is also an oil barrel that can be used to hold things. It is a good deal no matter how you calculate it.
After buying 80 kilograms of frozen pork belly at a 30% discount and carrots at a 0.20% discount, Baitao was about to buy Chinese cabbage at a 0.60% discount when she suddenly remembered.
It's over, she seems to have forgotten, there is no pot.
After stopping to buy discounted Chinese cabbage and searching for the price of the pot, Baitao started to curse again.
A most ordinary large iron pot actually costs 325 coins?
For more than 200 people, at least six or seven large pots are needed to make it sufficient.
You think I'm being taken advantage of!
The key is to buy a pot. Do you want to buy bowls and chopsticks?
You can’t pick up the pork belly and eat it with your hands, right?
How to cut meat without a knife?
After calculation, it would cost at least almost 4,000 mall coins here and there, which was more than expected.
Definitely not!
Hey, there is a lunch box.
Special price box lunch, 6 coins each, one meat, two vegetarian and one soup, best consumed within ten hours.
The food in fast-food restaurants such as Kentucky Duck and McDonald's on Blue Star has a best consumption time. After the time, it is removed from the shelves and thrown away. It is not strange to see this white peach.
I don’t know which planet this special lunch box is from. The lunch box is square and comes with chopsticks and a spoon.
The lunch box looks like it is made of aluminum and can be used repeatedly. After reading the product description below, it turns out that it can be used.
Buy a lunch box. You can still use the lunch box after eating. Isn’t this more cost-effective than buying a pot and dishes separately? !
The lunch box is not small, and children aged six or seven with small appetites can eat one portion for three people. However, for lunch boxes, such discounts may not be encountered every day, so Baitao placed an order per head.
If you can't finish it, save it and heat it up for breakfast tomorrow. In such a cold day, overnight dishes won't go bad that easily.
Another thousand five hundred and thirty-six coins were deducted, leaving only three thousand seven hundred and twenty-four coins.
After thinking about it, I don’t have to buy a big iron pot. I have to buy a pot that can boil water. If I get sick from drinking raw water, there are medicines in the mall that are not cheap.
I placed an order for two pots that can boil ten liters of water at a time, and the two hundred and twenty mall coins are gone again.
It's troublesome to light the fire, so buy four lighters, two lighters for one mall coin.
There are only 3,502 mall coins left. Baitao muttered again, money is really not worth spending.
In addition to the lunch box and water bladder, there were also two water boiling pots. The others were not in use for the time being, so Baitao put them away in the warehouse.
The warehouse is provided by the mall. It has unlimited space and can hold a lot of things. It is also stored in categories. The important thing is that it does not cost any money, which Baitao praises very much.
When I go to the market to buy groceries, I still have a plastic bag, otherwise how can I take it with me?
Doing business is all about making small profits but quick turnover, being convenient to others, and keeping things flowing smoothly. If you treat me like a leek and a scapegoat, then we will definitely break up, right?
Baitao didn't care whether the mall could understand it or not. After finishing muttering, he came out from the corner and shouted in the direction where the villagers were resting: "Dashan, some people are here to move things."
When Baitao left with the roe deer, the villagers stayed where they were.
Although Bai Tao seemed to have been tinkering for a long time, it actually only took ten minutes.
With the previous precedent of moving ham sausage, when she shouted, Bai Dashan's heart beat a few times faster.
He swallowed, raised his voice in response, and stabilized his mind before quickly bringing a few villagers over.
When he got closer, he deliberately raised his voice slightly: "Auntie, we are here."
"Well, come on." Baitao was very satisfied with the villagers' understanding.
It’s just that we need to know the sense of boundaries and have some space between each other, so that we can get along with each other for a long time.
As for whether the villagers had any doubts or ideas, Baitao asked insinuatingly.
But because Baitao's ancestor was the Peach Blossom Immortal, the villagers had no doubts about Baitao's strange abilities. They only had natural admiration and respect after being shocked.
What is an immortal?
Move mountains and seas, fly into the sky and escape from the earth... possess many magical abilities that ordinary people do not have. Otherwise, could they have protected their ancestors in the first place?
My aunt is a descendant of the Peach Blossom Fairy, so it’s not surprising that she has some extraordinary abilities.
In the past, our ancestors had people who could speak animal language, people who could predict divination, people who turned stones into gold, people who were so powerful that they could break mountains and split rocks...
When Baitao heard this, she thought about turning stones into gold. She liked such golden vulgar things so much.
But she was probably not the original owner, so she didn't inherit Ding Dian's abilities. Fortunately, she brought a system mall with her when she traveled through time, so she didn't lose face to those who traveled through time.
"There are fifty water bags, one for each household, and the remaining seven are for daily use."
"Hey, aunt, I'll take people down in a minute."
Baitao continued to give instructions: "These two pots are for boiling water. The water must be boiled before you can drink it, otherwise you will easily get sick and have stomach problems."
She didn't want to have to stop walking in the woods from time to time because of diarrhea when she was on the road, and she didn't want to have roundworms several meters long in her stomach.
"Yes, grandma." Bai Dashan responded respectfully and obediently.
People in the village don't have the habit of boiling water before drinking it, which costs a lot of firewood, but since my aunt said so, it must be reasonable.
Thinking of his stomach upset for several days last month, Bai Dashan thought to himself, maybe it was because the water was not boiled, right?
If I have a stomachache on the road now, it will be a big delay. Thinking of this, Bai Dashan immediately determined to tell the villagers about the seriousness of this matter.
Baitao added: "These boxes are lunch boxes. After the meal is eaten, the lunch boxes are washed and left. In a short time, everyone uses them to carry rice and water on the road."
If it hadn't been for Baitao's suggestion, how would Bai Dashan and the others know that these were lunch boxes?
Looking at the neatly stacked half-meter-high lunch boxes, their shocked cheeks twitched.
(Swish, he pops up, acting cute, begging to be fed~)
