Develop on Desolate Star

Jiang Mu took out two bowls of steaming rice noodles, and brought out a plate of stir-fried vegetables. Because the backpack kept fresh, it smelled like it was just out of the pot. With a jar of rice wine, the impact effect was very obvious. Dahu The two tigers couldn't help swallowing.

"This, what an embarrassment." Da Hu blushed and stretched out his sinful hand.

This hand doesn't listen to him!

Is there anything better than being in the desert, when you are hungry and thirsty, and there is a bowl of rice noodles in front of you?

"It's okay, I still have a lot." Jiang Tuhao Mu said very generously, and set out another plate of after-dinner fruit.

The big tiger and the two tigers swallowed wildly, eating from the bowl and looking at the pot.

The two of them sucked the rice noodles in big mouthfuls without any image. The firm rice noodles were wrapped in golden soup, and occasionally a chopstick or two of green vegetables was added. It was really refreshing!

The rice wine is sweet and refreshing, dispelling the heat of the day, making the whole body comfortable, and the pores are relaxed.

"Unexpectedly, one day I would be able to eat rice noodles. I heard that this rice noodles is the most authentic one that can only be bought by that boss." Dahu shook his head and sighed.

Erhu nodded while talking about the powder, "Yes, this powder tastes good, where did you buy it?"

Jiang Mu faintly sensed, "What boss?"

"Who else! That small restaurant, that one, that one named Jiang Mu!"

"That's right, that restaurant of his has long been wanted to go, but it's too far away!"

"A lot of people on the forum want to go."

"Yes, I heard that there are many dishes there, and they all have buff effects, just like the bowl of rice noodles in our hands!"

The two talked in a hurry, boasting wildly.

Jiang Mu himself was a little restless, "..."

Duhu suddenly remembered something, "By the way, I still don't know your name?"

Jiang Mu struggled for a while, and said frankly, "To be honest, my name is Jiang Mu."

The big tiger and the two tigers were amused at first, and then their expressions were slightly stagnant. They hesitated and looked at the rice noodles in their hands, and then at the watery red dango. The two stood up quickly, and said in shock in unison, "Damn!"

"I'm sorry, sir."

"I asked why this rice noodle is so delicious."

The two brothers laughed, but felt something was wrong.

Erhu was surprised, "I remember that the boss seems to be five or six hundred kilometers away from us?"

Duhu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lulu faintly.

The two were stunned for a while, obviously frightened, "Boss, you actually came across this far!?"

"Fortunately, if you ride Lulu, it will only take a day."

Hearing this, the Huzi brothers were amazed.

Dumb pushed him with his elbow, and whispered, "Boss, look, for the sake of saving you, can we give us a 9% discount? 9.5% is fine!"

"That's no problem." Jiang Mu nodded in agreement without saying a word, "If you are short of money recently, I just have a job here."

Jiang Mu mentioned the generous salary, including food and lodging, and 500 coins a day.

Hearing that the eyes of the two brothers are shining, what a good day it is?He nodded immediately, for fear that the opportunity would slip away.

"The job is very simple." Jiang Mu took them to the front of the camp, "Help me sell the things in the cellar, especially the food reserves, and sell them quickly. You can sell them at a low price. If you don't sell them, they will go bad. Basic resources Then replace it with high-level materials, such as gems and elite-level things."

"Your food and lodging will be in the camp, and you will settle it yourself."

As soon as the warehouse door opened, the food reserves of more than a dozen people were so spectacular, the big tiger and the two tiger brothers looked straight at each other, and suddenly transitioned from the poverty line to a well-off life, which was... so cool.

"Sell them all?" Erhu asked in surprise, "Isn't it good to keep them?"

Jiang Mu explained lightly, "There are too many things. I still have a camp in the north, and it is a waste to accumulate too many basic materials. It is better to exchange them for more valuable materials that can preserve their value."

After hearing this, the hungry and full brothers felt sour in their hearts. The gap between the rich and the poor was too big to accept for a while.

"There is one more thing I need to ask for your help. Help me see how wide the quicksand zone is. Can you find a way to cross it? It would be even better if you can find a safe zone in the middle of the quicksand river."

"no problem!"

……

Regarding the quicksand river, Jiang Mu himself was also searching for various news, and some people mentioned the quicksand area on the forum, but because the monsters in the south were powerful, and the phenomenon of quicksand was not very unusual, it did not arouse widespread discussion.

Jiang Mu put together a variety of forum posts, and gradually realized that this quicksand river is unusual. It is not usually long, but circles around the planet. The entire barren star, at this latitude, is a quicksand belt.

Judging from years of player experience, Jiang Mu felt that there must be something on the other side of the quicksand belt, so he had to find a way to look there anyway.

Jiang Mu's work is progressing steadily, but the life of the other players is not easy.

A strong team still has supplies in reserve, which can support it, but a weak team is in jeopardy.

As the weather dries further, the heat and sandstorms seem to be normal, but the most painful thing is that there is no water, and water resources cannot be found everywhere.

There is no longer any food to be produced in the farmland. The original golden rice fields are all abandoned. Many people have returned to hunting life, but this is different from the past. After the storm, the monsters that appear have become more powerful. Low-level players Some can't stand it anymore.

Nowadays, second-level players are everywhere, and third-level players are not so uncommon.

Liu Maocai managed to get promoted to the third-level player, but he didn't feel that the game became easier. There were eight people in the team, and the players died one after another due to various reasons, but he was the only one who survived.

Lack of supplies, worry about food and drink every day.

Today, as usual, I went out to look for food with heavy steps, and there was still a bright debuff hanging in the upper left corner.

"I'm used to it, the game is so perverted, it's either too much wind and sand, or the temperature is hot." He smiled helplessly, sometimes there is more than one debuff, and it doesn't give the player a way out at all.

But today's luck is really bad, I accidentally attracted a group of ghost flies, this kind of thing is very disgusting, small in size, often appears as a big group, likes to drill into people's mouth and nose, with all kinds of toxins on its body, He once witnessed a teammate die under such ghost flies.

Liu Maocai ran away in a panic, and the ghost flies behind him chased him closer and closer. The buzzing sound was so close that he could even smell their rancid smell.

Losing physical strength, he felt that his running speed was getting slower and slower, and his breathing was getting heavier and heavier.

Maybe he was going to die, Liu Maocai was a little helpless. After playing this game for more than 60 days, he still couldn't hold on.

He closed his eyes in despair.

Suddenly, two screams came from the ear, accompanied by the sound of piercing the air, two arrows shot forward and back, and when they touched the ghost fly, they exploded violently.

"Run! Why are you standing there!" a familiar voice urged him.

When Liu Maocai opened his eyes, he saw two people, Big Tiger and Two Tigers. The two of them, after a few days of decadence and haggardness, became energetic, and there was a hint of rosiness on their round faces.

As Liu Maocai ran, he wondered if he had read it wrong, and the Huzi brothers kept shooting arrows until the ghost flies stopped catching up.

"You saved us once before, and this time I will pay you back. Here, you take these meat and water." Dui stuffed the things into his hands without any explanation.

Liu Maocai was a little dazed, "Where did you get these things?"

"Damn, I found a job." Erhu briefly explained the matter, but the corners of his lips curled up and his energetic face still showed how good his life was recently.

A faint envy flashed in Liu Maocai's heart.

"Anyway, we still have to work hard!" Dahu patted him on the shoulder, "We're leaving, if you really can't make it through, you can come to us... Cough, I can give you a friendly price for things, 8.8 Fold hahaha!"

The two came and went quickly, Liu Maocai couldn't help smiling, drank a saliva to moisten his throat, and suddenly felt that life was not so bad, maybe he could try to join other teams.

……

In the restaurant, although the daily turnover is decreasing, there is still some business.

The most popular food is the food that enhances the attack power, such as sweet wine glutinous rice balls and small glutinous rice balls, but because the price of water has risen, rice wine and sweet wine are no longer sold, which makes many people feel sorry.

The prices of the remaining dishes have also increased one after another, and the prices are high. Even so, many people still grit their teeth and continue to buy.

Shishou has not been here for a long time, and the changes are still unclear.

Today, he has changed a lot from before—he is even poorer.

Shi Shou scanned the menu of the restaurant and saw the sharply increased price, feeling a little pained, "Can it be cheaper?"

Zhang Zizi shook her head, "The price is like this now, it can't go any lower."

Shi Shou was very entangled. Originally, he could buy two servings of food with the materials on hand, but now he can only buy one serving, but if he doesn't buy it... Now that the monsters are stronger, it is too difficult to fight.

Zhang Zizi continued to work on the matter at hand, lifted the lid of the pot, and the boiling sweet wine exuded the hot fragrance in the pot, she smashed three bird eggs in without blinking, and stirred them up with chopsticks, the fragrance became more intense, After waiting for a while, the white and fat glutinous rice balls were put into the pot, rising and falling in the boiling water.

Probably because he was hungry, Shishou swallowed in embarrassment, and asked, "Is this your new dish? How do you sell sweet wine glutinous rice balls and eggs?"

Zhang Zizi, "No, this is our staff meal." After she finished speaking, she called other people over to eat.

Zhou Hanying, Xu Fang, and Zhang Li walked over from the back kitchen. The three of them sat at the table, and each of them held a large bowl and ate it deliciously.

Shi Shou thought sourly, the glutinous rice balls are too big!

"Employee meal..." Shi Shou wiped the saliva that was not flowing from the corner of his mouth, "Then what, are you still recruiting employees?"

Zhang Zizi glanced at him in surprise, "No, and I'm not the boss."

"Okay, then, then I'll buy a small glutinous rice ball."

"Okay, 1350 coins."

Shishou reluctantly completed the transaction, and finally walked back dejectedly with the only food in his hand. His heart was full of tears. These days are really hard...
