Novel Full Chapter 1184: Buying spree
The customers who got the opportunity to taste the samples were already rushing to buy whatever they could get their hands on. A chubby mer was about to snatch the remaining radishes but his hand was smacked away by a mer with a long horse-like face. The chubby mer turned to look at the mer who smacked his hand and then heard the other mer say through gritted teeth, ” Don’t even think about it.
My daughter cannot eat her meal without these radishes and cucumbers as her side dish. I almost lost my hearing because of her cries!”
The chubby mer was stunned when he saw that the other mer had put all the radishes in his basket and he did not even leave a single leave behind. It could be said that he actually piled up three catties of radishes in the basket which cost about nine to ten taels!
This was the first time the chubby mer had seen someone throw away money so easily. He looked at the elderly mer and then asked, ” Uncle, do you not think that you are wasting too much money? These radishes will cost you almost ten taels. At least leave the leaves behind that way you will have to pay less.”
Uncle Qiu glanced at the mer who was speaking without even knowing how good these things were and then arched a brow before saying, ” Young one, you do not understand how good these vegetables are right? If you did then you wouldn’t have called them expensive. These are really good things. Forget about leaves if there were stems as well, we would have bought them too.”
When the young chubby mer heard the words of Uncle Qiu he was stunned, these vegetables were so in demand? He blinked his eyes and then asked, ” Are they really that good ?” Sure they tasted good but there was no need to exaggerate like this right?
There was no way that these fresh and watery vegetables would be worth so much money.
Uncle Qiu rolled his eyes and then explained patiently, ” It seems that you really are coming here for the first time. If you have never eaten these vegetables then I will tell you a secret.” He then looked around the crowd and pointed to the light and curved mark on his left cheek. ” Do you see this? This is my birthmark. For ages I had it, no matter how many medicines I used it never lightened.
Even the imperial physician told me that I should just live with it and start accepting it. Fast forward to the time when I bought these vegetables and started consuming them, look my mark had lightened by considerable degrees.
What’s more these vegetables do not need much skill, even if the person cooking them is a novice they will taste good and in case someone with great skills gets their hands on these vegetables then you can simply be prepared for your mind to be blown.”
He then glanced at the meat counter where the mutter chops were slowly getting out of stock and then turned to look at the chubby mer before saying, ” I do not have the time to talk to you, the stock is running out!”
The chubby mer: “….”
” Nan Yan!” One of the mers who came with Nan Yan rushed over to where the chubby mer was standing and then said, ” Look, I got my hands on those juicy tomatoes and steak. Let’s go, we will go back home and then cook these things. I heard that these tomatoes can be eaten raw without any worries.”
He then looked at the empty radish and cucumber stall before saying, “It is a pity that we couldn’t get the radish and cucumbers. Oh, wait! There are potatoes here!” The mer exclaimed as he pushed the bags to Nan Yan and then said, “Let’s go, we can cook mashed potatoes when we go back home.”
Nan Yan looked at the elderly woman who was buying potatoes and nodded before turning around and following the mer who was heading towards the shelves that were selling potatoes.
” Are you sure that you want to buy so much? These things are way too expensive,” Though Nan Yan was a bit tempted. He felt that they should not waste their pocket money like this. He glanced at his friend and asked, ” What do you say, Qin Lu?”
Qin Lu rolled his eyes and then said, ” Come on, Yanyan! I am not saying that we should waste all of our pocket money on these things but we can take a part of our pocket money, right? And it’s not like we haven’t wasted money before. At least the meat and vegetables here are much more delicious than the roasted duck restaurant that we went to the last time.
Back then did we not waste more than ten taels?”
Since his best friend was stubborn there was nothing that Nan Yan could do. He also gritted his teeth and bought a head of cabbage, a loaf of bread and a bottle of jam.
” Please come again,” a beautiful young woman bid them goodbye as she handed them their packages. She was so beautiful that the two mers’ faces turned red as they stepped away from the payment counter.
” Let’s come here the next time, we can watch the drama——please be gentle my lord? What do you say?” Qin Lu said to Nan Yan who nodded. Since they have wasted their pocket money already they might as well have fun.
