Let's suffer a little longer, fellow Blue Star folks.

He hadn't walked far when he discovered that not far to the west, there seemed to be a lot of people coming and going, and it seemed very lively.

"hiss--"

He vaguely remembered that the residents who came here yesterday to help build houses said that they seemed to be holding a morning market in the southwest corner of the gathering place?

He said that if he needed anything, he could come directly to the morning market to buy it.

Thinking of this, Li Shan immediately changed direction.

"Grilled crab! Freshly grilled crab, anyone? It's definitely better than the restaurant at the gathering place!"

"I found these metal parts yesterday in a sandy area across the river! They must be from pre-war civilization. Anyone want them? If no one wants them, I'll sell the warehouse!"

"A homemade compass! A magical tool to prevent getting lost! Only 10 Alliance Coins for one!"

"I just made a firebomb! It can be used anywhere except in the woods! It's definitely a monster-killing weapon!"

Due to the surge in the number of players, the demand for internal transactions has also increased significantly.

In the end, everyone spontaneously found an open space outside the west gate to set up stalls, because everyone had just come online in the morning, there were the most people gathered there, and many people were not in a hurry to complete the task and preferred to wander around first.

Naturally, this is the best time to sell.

Even the dozens of newbies who just entered the game gradually got used to selling the prey they hunted or the small gadgets they picked up at the market first. If no one bought them, they would send them to the warehouse to sell to NPCs.

By the way, the NPC in charge of collecting things in the warehouse is Lao Zhao, and Xia Keyu will go there regularly to check on the situation.

But at the moment, Lao Zhao is doing a pretty good job.

Even if there are some rare items that he cannot identify, he will not go against his conscience to quote prices to players, but will ask Xia Keyu, Xiaoxing or even Song Lian for help.

But even so, selling things to players or other NPCs who need them urgently can earn you a few more Alliance Coins than selling them to the warehouse.

Who doesn’t want to earn a few more Alliance Coins?

"It's so lively..."

Li Shan walked slowly to the morning market, and then looked at the stalls inside and the residents who kept walking through them, and still sighed.

This gathering place had just undergone a drastic change the day before yesterday, with countless compatriots killed. Even the battlefield was only cleaned up yesterday, but today, they have already regained their vitality.

He didn't see anyone with a sad face in the entire morning market.

It seems that it is indeed as Tang Yi said, that they have adapted to war, separation, and death during their years of displacement.

And from another perspective, if they were the kind of "weak" people who would easily indulge in grief and unable to wake up, they might not have been able to get here.

As he walked, Li Shan's attention was attracted by a stall nearby.

There was only one fish on the stall, but it was a red-headed silver carp that was rarely seen in the market in Yunhe Town, and it looked to be about ten kilograms. You know, red-headed silver carp of this weight is the most delicious.

The fish meat is fresh and delicious. When cooking, just throw a few purple ginger into the water to perfectly cover up its slight fishy smell and make the soup slightly spicy.

Thinking of this, Li Shan silently swallowed his saliva, then immediately looked up at the girl sitting behind the stall and asked:

"How much does this fish cost?"

[Baili Sweet] looked up at Li Shan. She remembered that he was an NPC.

And it is said that he is a senior officer of the Allied Forces, so...

The lion opened his mouth wide?

"30." Baileys' eyes were very firm.

Li Shan raised his eyebrows.

"30 copper coins?"

The girl blinked, then immediately shook her head.

"30 Alliance Coins."

After saying that, she took out a 5-denomination alliance coin from her bosom and gestured to Li Shan.

"You don't accept copper coins?"

Li Shan was a little surprised that there was a gathering place that didn't accept copper coins?

"No, or you can use air stones." The girl nodded and immediately proposed another payment plan.

"How many air stones does this fish cost?" Li Shan also asked.

"One or two."

According to the exchange rate in the gathering place, 1 jin of Qi Stone can be exchanged for 300 Alliance Coins, so 30 Alliance Coins is equivalent to one or two Qi Stones.

Baileys did not deceive Li Shan about the exchange rate.

After all, he is also an ally, so maybe his favorability will come in handy in the future.

"That's 100 coppers..."

Li Shan estimated the prices in Yunhe Town and it didn't seem too expensive. After all, the fish was just caught and was still alive. It would be fresh if he took it back and processed it.

"One or two, deal!"

Seeing that the NPC agreed so readily, Baileys suddenly felt that he might have quoted a low price.

Earning less is a big taboo!

It seems that the initial quotation should be higher next time.

Li Shan immediately took out a couple of Qi stones from his arms and handed them to the girl, then bent down and wanted to take the fish away. However, he suddenly realized that he had not brought anything with him this time, and he couldn't carry the fish all the way back to the tent.

"I'll lend you this bucket first."

Seeing Li Shan's embarrassment, Baileys, who was busy leaving, said generously.

"Just remember to take it to the riverside and give it to those people fishing there."

She pointed to where the fishermen were.

"Okay, thank you." Li Shan nodded immediately, then picked up the bucket and walked quickly towards the tent.

He couldn't wait to eat the fish soup.

Baileys stood up happily and stretched.

I didn’t expect that I sold all the goods within ten minutes of setting up the stall.

Looks like today is also a lucky day~

As a war correspondent, Baileys usually doesn't go out of her way to fight monsters, so her main source of income is collecting ingredients, fishing, and picking up trash.

I spend most of my time wandering around the valley, taking photos and recording videos.

But her luck was always good. She could often pick up some rare pre-war parts and valuable herbs when wandering around. Even when Lemon took her fishing, she could often catch big fish.

She actually caught two redhead carp this morning, but the other one was a little smaller, so she grilled it on the spot and shared it with everyone fishing by the river as breakfast.

So it seems that she still lost 30 alliance coins?

However, since her hobby is traveling, she doesn't have much demand for alliance coins. It's enough for her equipment to keep up with the version, and the money is enough for her to eat every day and be resurrected.

In fact, Baileys was a little surprised that it was qualified to play the game.

She also wrote very clearly in the questionnaire that she is a scenery person. She can't fight monsters, build houses, or cook. She can only take photos and record videos everywhere.

She originally thought that the production team didn't need players like her, but unexpectedly, she got the internal test qualification when it was distributed for the third time.

So, they were really randomly selected?

There's really no shady dealings going on.

Chapter 112 Discovering a Cave

Returning to the equipment storage area, Baileys picked up the backpack and weapons he had left there.

Because most of the current players do not have their own residences, Xia Keyu also built an equipment storage area modeled after the mercenary organization in Yunzhong City in the book.

Players can come here to deposit their equipment when they log off every day and retrieve it when they log on. Only 24 Alliance Coin is charged every 1 hours.

In addition, equipment cleaning services will be provided when storing equipment.

So many people send their equipment here for convenience.

Xia Keyu temporarily handed over the cleaning business to several women in the refugee camp. The task was not heavy, so the remuneration was not high, but at least three meals were provided.

In this way, most adults in the refugee camp had jobs in the gathering place, so she didn't need to worry about them not having enough food. This was a clever solution to the refugees' survival problem.

This also made Song Lian sometimes joke that he felt that Xia Keyu was no longer an "assistant" but the "steward" of the gathering place.

She has to have a hand in all the internal affairs of the gathering place. If things develop in the future, she might become the legendary second to none...

Then Xia Keyu covered his mouth.

"Brother Ramen, give me some dry food and water."

After putting on his big backpack, Baileys walked into the restaurant with ease, and then shouted to [Lazy Ramen] who was working hard to cook.

[Lazy Ramen] looked back and saw that it was Baileys, then said without turning back:

"The items are right on the counter, you can take them yourself. The prices haven't changed, and the money is still in the same place."

"Ok."

Baileys smiled and nodded, then took a day's worth of dry food and water as needed, and put the money in the bamboo basket next to the cabinet.

As more and more people gather, the restaurant's business is getting better and better. The [Lazy State Ramen] that used to be able to take a break occasionally now seems to be busy all day long.

"Brother Ramen, aren't you going to hire someone to help? You look quite tired."

Baileys put her backpack back on, but didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, she looked at [Lazy State Ramen]'s back and asked.

"Yes, there's a sign at the door saying it's hiring." [Lazy State Ramen] continued without turning around, "But it seems like no one in this batch of players can cook. I'll wait for the next batch and see."

In fact, many people are interested in the job of restaurant chef.

Although if you are as busy as [Lazy State Ramen], you may not have time to go out and fight monsters and level up.

But the money given is too much.

According to reliable sources, when Xia Keyu handed the restaurant over to Lazy State Ramen, in addition to having requirements on working hours, the profit sharing was even based on a 7:3 ratio.

70% of it is from [Lazy State Ramen]!

The 30% that Xia Keyu took basically offset the cost of ingredients, so the gathering place did not make any money through the restaurant.

But with such favorable conditions, everyone knows that [Lazy State Ramen] has made a lot of money.

In addition, there are people who are now using cash to buy Alliance Coins on the forum, so it seems that just by making money from cooking, [Lazy State Ramen]'s daily income may be higher than his normal job.

"Then I wish you success in recruiting soon." Baileys smiled and waved at [Lazy State Ramen]'s back, "Then I'll be leaving first."

"Bye bye."

Ramen Brother's voice was still full of enthusiasm.

Although he felt that this kind of huge profit would not last too long, he would definitely make a fortune while he could still make money!

You can upgrade your level at any time, but you can't always make money.

After leaving the restaurant, Baileys walked all the way out of the east gate of the gathering place.

As a scenery lover, her target today is naturally not the monster in the valley, but the mountain range to the north of the valley.

Because the players had been defending the valley during this period, many monsters hiding in the corners were caught and killed by them.

This also happened to clear the way for her tourism career.

She had never been to the north before because the first time she went there, she was surrounded by several inferior demons and couldn't even run away.

The weapons she rented were dropped over there. If Lemon hadn't accompanied her to pick them up, she would probably have to pay compensation to the equipment store.

But it's much safer now, and she also exchanged the mission reward she received yesterday for a new gun, so she should be able to go up the mountain smoothly today.

You know, the other side of the mountain is the area occupied by demons, so the scenery must be completely different.

She carefully crossed the Yunshan River, then took the gun on her back and loaded the bullets.

Even without the demons, the animals in the forests would still be a great danger to her.

After all, her level is not high, only level three, and her fighting experience is not rich enough.

Even if she encountered large wild animals such as wild boars, bears or tigers, she might be in trouble.
