Chapter 183 - 183: Third Visit to the Night Market
Knowing that it was evolution, Ye Xingchen asked them to go back and continue their research to see how far these marine creatures could evolve and whether their bodies would produce any toxins after evolution, to see if they could still be eaten after evolution.
Ye Xingchen couldn’t possibly eat a rat.
However, Ye Xingchen was still a little tempted by seafood.
Ye Xingchen hadn’t had a mouthful of fresh seafood for a long time, even though his food wasn’t bad recently, if anything, it was even better than most people’s food before the apocalypse.
However, humans were like this. The more they lacked something, the more they wanted it.
After a week, Ye Xingchen went out again. This time, Ye Xingchen even changed to a bigger mountain SUV. They went from the previous four-seater car to a six-seater. This time, Ye Xingchen brought Lin Sijia and Little Black along.
Lin Sijia came along because Ye Xingchen had said that he would bring her here to take a look personally. Lin Sijia had a strong curiosity after seeing such huge sea creatures that had evolved in the pool. She insisted that Ye Xingchen bring her along.
Along the way, Little Black seemed to be tense. He kept staring out of the car window and whining. It was not until the car passed through the forest that Little Black seemed to relax a little.
Ye Xingchen stared thoughtfully at the forest at the foot of their mountain.
Time passed quickly, and soon Ye Xingchen and the others arrived at the seaside.
As soon as he opened the car door, a wave of heat rushed towards him. All of a sudden, Little Black’s tongue stuck out.
“This is too hot.”
This was the third time Qin Tianming had followed them here. As soon as he got out of the car, he stood beside Mo Qi and Little Black, sticking out his tongue to cool down like the dog.
It was really too hot. If it wasn’t for the fact that there was so much fun and good food here, he really didn’t want to step out of the safety fortress at all. After all, there was heating in the safety fortress when it was cold, but there was air conditioning in the safety fortress now.
It was Lin Sijia’s first time here. She couldn’t help but be a little surprised when she saw the bustling night market.
Her first reaction was the same as Ye Xingchen’s at the beginning, surprise and exclamation. Sighing.
Before this strange weather, their city was prosperous and beautiful. But now, when she thought about the previous prosperity and traffic in the city, Lin Sijia felt a little absent-minded, as if everything before was just a dream.
Unknowingly, the extreme weather had already arrived for more than half a year. It was not only for Lin Sijia but Zhao Hao and others, it could be said that everyone else could not even think of the various prosperous and beautiful days before. They were already somewhat used to these hellish days.
“How do I buy this?”
Lin Sijia stood in front of a small stall. It was the stall of the auntie who sold seafood to Ye Xingchen on the first night.
“Ah, young man, you’re here again. Is this your wife? She’s quite pretty.”
The first time Ye Xingchen bought five buckets of seafood from her, and the second time he came, he bought all the buckets from her stall. Ye Xingchen even chatted with this auntie for a while, so this third time, she became familiar with Ye Xingchen.
“You’re an old customer. I’ll give you a discount. Just the same price as before.”
This auntie did not have much business here, because everyone who set up stalls here sold the same things. It was nothing more than seafood, seawater, seawater drinks, cooked seafood, and some small toys made of seafood bones or shells.
Since every stall was selling products to get anti-inflammatory medicine, people naturally bought from the stall with the biggest fish. After all, everyone knew how precious anti-inflammatory medicine was now. Of course, they had to buy the better quality at the same price.
The reason why Ye Xingchen chose this stall was because there were no customers there.
Ye Xingchen didn’t like to fight with others, except for the drink from before. He was really curious about the taste, so he went to queue up to buy a cup.
This auntie was an honest person. On the first day Ye Xingchen came, she thought that she would definitely not be able to have any business and would go back home empty-handed. In the end, Ye Xingchen actually bought five buckets from her in one go. Moreover, Ye Xingchen did not just buy five buckets in one go. He even gave her a whole box of anti-inflammatory drugs that had not been opened.
The auntie was also a smart person. She knew that Ye Xingchen was so generous that he might have a lot of medicine at home, so she charged a lot less for Ye Xingchen. For others, she charged the normal price of one anti-inflammatory medicine for one bucket of fish, but for Ye Xingchen, it was the price of two anti-inflammatory medicines for three buckets of fish.
“Hey, Little Ye is here again tonight. What a coincidence. There are new goods today.”
The auntie carefully took out a small bucket of shells from behind her small stool.
She didn’t plan to sell it at first. Her son and daughter-in-law had gone through great difficulty to catch and pick it up on the beach today.
Shellfish were not easy to pick up. After all, they were not as easy to catch as fish. Her son and daughter-in-law had spent a long time to get this much. She planned to separate the shells and make them into crafts to sell.
“I’ll give it to you. You’ve helped me so much.”
When the auntie saw Ye Xingchen come again, she suddenly laughed happily. This time, she didn’t even want to make crafts anymore. The medicine that Ye Xingchen gave her was comparable to the amount of medicine that those people could earn in a month or two.
After all, even though she had taken advantage of Ye Xingchen every time, Ye Xingchen had always given her enough, and even more.
Therefore, every time, the auntie would pour out a lot of seawater from the bucket for Ye Xingchen and fill it with fish.
“Go back and let your wife try it. It’s fresh.”
The auntie didn’t know if it was fresh or not. After all, it was not easy to catch shellfish, and there were very few of them sold, so the price was not cheap. She couldn’t bear to keep it for herself. At most, she would eat the seafood that couldn’t be sold and had already died.
However, she heard from the customers who came to buy it that the shellfish were much more delicious than before. They said that they were much bigger and that they felt energetic after eating them.
The auntie couldn’t bear to eat them, but seeing Ye Xingchen and the others come, she simply gave them all to Ye Xingchen.
It was not a loss. After all, she had earned a lot of anti-inflammatory medicines from Ye Xingchen. It was enough for their family to prepare just in
case..
