Chapter 25 The Little Girl Selling Things

With so much on his mind, Qiao Xi couldn't sleep well the whole night.

While it was still dark, Qiao Xi jumped out of bed and called the rock rat a few times at the cave entrance, successfully waking it up and borrowing the iron walnut from it.

There are too many things, and the space backpack can’t hold them all. The iron walnut of the little squirrel is still reliable.

Josh put all the pots, pans, and utensils in the house, anything that might be needed later, into the iron walnut box.

Qiao Xi even packed up the big stones at home in case he couldn't find stones to build the stove.

Everything was ready, Qiao Xi climbed onto the back of the big-tailed yak and set off! Running forward!

There are a lot of things today, so you have to get to the market before dawn, otherwise you won’t be able to get a good spot, let alone set up a stove.

The big-tailed yak was running very fast, carrying Josh on its back as it ran along the road, and they actually arrived at the free market before daybreak.

This time it was no small matter. Qiao Xi chose a location in the middle of the road, close to the main road, and right at several intersections. While there were not many people around, Qiao Xi quickly took things out of the iron walnut and set up the prototype of the stove.

Two grocery vendors not far away saw this and exclaimed in horror, "How big of a space can hold so many things? Even rocks are stuffed in there. What a waste!"

Another vendor nudged him, "Didn't you see that large monster? A high-level monster can't escape. It must be the eldest daughter of that family who escaped. How can we ordinary people compare to her?"

"Yes, yes, let's stay away from it and go over there." The two of them packed up their things and ran away.

The young farmer Qiao Xi, who was still anxiously looking for cups and bowls, didn't know that someone was teasing him from behind. If he knew, he would definitely be furious. Which young lady would want to farm by herself?

After asking Big Tail Yak to keep an eye on the stall, Qiao Xi walked towards the handicraft shop. The free market was roughly divided into sections, and the stalls near that section mostly sold homemade equipment, instruments and some small groceries.

Qiao Xi looked along the road and saw everything for sale except bowls. Who would set up a stall here to sell bowls?

I can only go to the store to have a look, Josh thought.

Hey, what is that?
Josh saw a little girl pinching something. She took a piece of something like bark and pinched it a few times randomly to make a rough shape.

"What is this?" she asked, leaning closer.

"It's plasticized bark. Do you want it?" The little girl fiddled with the things on the stall to show Josh.

Josh picked up a small bucket from her stall. It felt smooth and light, just like the plastic bowls she had used before.

"How much is one?" Qiao Xi asked the price cautiously first. It's good, but it can't be too expensive.

"The small one is eight dollars, the big one is ten dollars, and the larger ones are priced separately." Perhaps seeing that Qiao Xi had the intention to buy, the little girl enthusiastically showed her things of all sizes.

"Can I put hot things in it? Will it leak if I put water in it?"

"Both are fine. Some pioneering groups use these as pots and pans when they're short on storage space. It's very practical. Of course not. Unless you tear it apart or crush it, it will last a long time."

It's not expensive, it's lightweight, and it can be stacked up to save space. No matter how you look at it, it's a better deal than buying those stone or wooden bowls. This is it.

"Can you make it now? I need fifty bowls and cups each. How long will it take?" Now that you have made the decision, do it quickly and don't waste time.

"It'll be quick. I'm a plasticist, and I can help you quickly. Where is your stall? I can go over and make it for you." Maria was very excited to receive a large order right after opening. It would be even better to go over and do it, so she wouldn't waste time here.

"What about your stall?" Qiao Xi hesitated. She was alone, and if she left, there would be no one to look after her stall.

"It's okay." Maria jumped up and waved vigorously in the distance. "Dad, please ask my brother to come over here and watch over me. I got a big order. Please hurry."

After a while, a smaller boy came running from a stall in the distance.

"Brother, I've received a big order. Please keep an eye on it and I'll buy you something delicious." Maria instructed him in a serious manner.

The little boy nodded honestly: "Okay, I'll wait for your sister here." Only then did she feel at ease and took the plasticized bark and followed Qiao Xi.

Seeing a huge magical beast on Qiao Xi's stall, the little girl immediately showed her deep envy: "Customer, what kind of magical beast is this? It's so big. I wish we had one at home too."

Qiao Xi smiled and said, "It's a big-tailed yak, a large magical beast in the snow."

"Is it a high-level magical beast?" Maria asked curiously.

Josh nodded: "Yes." "Wow" Maria exclaimed softly, it turned out to be a high-level magical beast, so majestic.

It's no wonder the little girl asked this question. Not all monsters with large bodies are high-level monsters. Intermediate-level monsters are not necessarily stronger than low-level monsters. It's like an intermediate-level lamb. If it doesn't have rich combat experience, it might be eaten by a low-level lion or tiger. Nothing is absolute.

Of course, when it comes to high-level magical beasts, the possibility is greatly reduced. Those who can become high-level magical beasts are all intelligent creatures with strong combat thinking, and they can no longer be easily defeated by lower-level magical beasts.

The two chatted while doing the things at hand, exchanged names, added contact numbers, and agreed to contact Maria to buy things when they needed them in the future.

Bubbles were bubbling in the pot, and Qiao Xi carefully put the fish balls into the pot. As soon as they were put into the pot, the fresh fragrance of the fish balls was stimulated by the hot soup, dispelling the chill of the early morning.

At this time, there were quite a few people passing by on the street, and many of them were attracted by the fragrance, but no one had tried it yet.

It's normal to do business, and Josh is not anxious.

He poured two servings into the bowl Maria had just made and gave it to her: "Maria, try it and see how it tastes."

Maria had just made a lot of small spoons for Josh with the leftovers from making bowls. She couldn't be so stingy as not to even give him a bowl of fish balls to try.

"One portion is enough, no need for so much, thank you, sister." Maria did not hesitate and took the first bowl, but she did not plan to have a second bowl, which would be so embarrassing.

"This is for your brother. Didn't you just promise to bring him something delicious? How could you forget?"

Maria didn't forget, she was just embarrassed, but she could see that Josh really wanted to give it to her, so she accepted it generously: "Thank you, sister."

"It's okay, try it." Qiao Xi couldn't wait to know the taste of these indigenous people, which was related to whether the fish ball business could continue for a long time.

Maria blew gently on the steaming fish ball soup, took a small sip, and her eyes suddenly lit up. She scooped a fish ball and put it in her mouth. It was tender and soft. She wanted the next one after eating one.

"Delicious, delicious, sister, this is so delicious!" Maria said to Josh in surprise, holding a small bowl, with her little face reddened by the steam.
