135, Real World 12 (2nd Update)

It was quite safe throughout the day. When night fell, Wu Chengping became a little nervous again and repeatedly confirmed with Yu Heng about the status of tonight's duty.

"Don't worry, Boss Wu, everything has been arranged."

Sure enough, there was another robbery tonight.

Traps have been dug all around, and the core is the poisonous mist bomb. As long as you step on the trap, the poisonous mist bomb will be shot out, and you will be burned out if you keep it.

There are a few people in the surrounding trees who are good at marksmanship.

These are all in the dark, and the others are gathered outside the caravan. Just after passing through the front, there were even fewer people watching on the surface.

Wu Si said to his elder brother: "Brother, I don't think I feel safe."

But Wu Chengping looked at the people on the tree with bright eyes, waved his hand and said, "You don't understand, the guy in his hand is the good thing. Alas, I am conflicted! I want to watch it again, but I also want to be safe and sound. It’s better to have a safe night without thieves, alas!”

There were indeed thieves this night, but they were not as ferocious as what Wu Chengping and his caravan encountered last night. They didn't even have to use the troops in the trees. Those poisonous fog bomb traps directly killed people.

Listening to those screams, Wu Si unconsciously covered his face and rubbed it: "Oh my god, it hurts so much."

None of the thieves ran away, and all the knives and sticks in their hands fell to the ground. They stepped on the horse rope and were directly hit by the poisonous mist bombs flying over. They were howling and rolling on the ground with their faces covered.

Wu Chengping had all the thieves tied up and planned to kill them after asking for the details. It was not that he was cruel, but that most of the people in Xizhou were stateless. They usually occupied cities and ruled as kings, and each had their own affairs.

Moreover, the classification of household registration is different in each city. If you catch someone, where can you take them to be punished?

It's impossible to take him to Xijiuzhou to find a yamen to send him to an official. They still treat him differently.

Therefore, when businessmen caught bandits, they agreed to kill them all themselves without leaving any further trouble.

After questioning, it was found that this group of people did not have any background, and they came from Xisanzhou.

Yu Heng ignored how Wu Chengping dealt with the bandits. He gathered his people together for a small meeting, arranged the night watchmen, and went to rest first.

When I got up the next day and went on the road, the robbers had disappeared. The people in the caravan all looked like they were used to it. Yu Heng looked at the grave bags and had a guess in his heart.

Later, when he met a thief again, Yu Heng once again determined that the merchant's way of dealing with the robbers was to strangle them themselves. This was considered autonomy under disorder.

That day they entered the city, and Wu Chengping and the others happened to have a bodyguard agency they were familiar with here, so they hired a dozen more people.

This made Wu Chengping finally feel relieved a little bit, which he had been worried about for the past few days.

"Boss Yu, you're welcome. The fish in this shop is the best. Try it." After entering the city, Wu Chengping generously booked a restaurant and treated him to dinner.

This was the first time Yu Heng and the others had eaten in such a good restaurant. The food tasted very good, and everyone's mouths were full of oil.

After Wu Chengping had a few drinks with him, he went over there to have a drink with the newly hired escort, and no one was left out.

"Mom and Dad, eat this." There was no need to entertain Wu Chengping, so Yu Heng relaxed more quickly, and his men kept picking up food for Yu's father and Yu's mother.

Fortunately, Yu's father and Yu's mother also practiced diligently after taking the genetically modified fluid. Although they have been having a bad time and have lost weight, their complexion and energy are still good.

However, Yu Heng was still very distressed. As soon as he had a chance to have a good meal, he quickly asked his parents to eat more.

Father Yu and Mother Yu also had the same idea, so the whole family was there to share food with each other. Of course, Cui Nan was not left behind by the couple.

After dinner, they took some time to relax. Wu Chengping said that he would have to repair for a day before setting off tomorrow.

Yu Heng went shopping with others.

After acquiring one hundred crystal coins, Yu Heng happened to split them first.

This time, he did not hold a meeting to discuss the allocation like before, but decided directly on his own. When it was time to establish authority and rules on his own, Yu Heng would no longer resort to democratic tactics.

"I don't need to tell you that the weapons everyone uses are scarce items here. Moreover, this is my personal property. I can provide it for everyone to use, but it will definitely be deducted from the salary. There are also food provided. Meal expenses are also included this time.”

No one had objections to these two points, so they agreed on a five-fifty remuneration, with Yu Heng getting five cents. The rest of the people, including Yu's father and Yu's mother, divided the remainder equally.

"At the end of this mission, everyone can get five crystal coins. Now I will give you half of the deposit. But for those who do well, I will take my own share of the additional bonus. , For example, Brother Lin Minglei, his performance is obvious to everyone, and I will give him twenty bone coins as a reward. "

Yu Heng directly divided the crystal coins. Everyone was very happy to get the crystal coins.

One crystal coin is equivalent to one hundred bone coins, and five crystal coins is equivalent to five hundred bone coins. You can buy a lot of things~

Lin Minglei took twenty more bone coins. Although it was not much, he was very happy. He said to his wife Dong Jianlan with a bright face: "I'll give it all to you. You can buy whatever you want!"

Dong Jianlan pursed his lips and smiled, and put away the crystal coins safely.

"I'm free now. If you want to go shopping, you can go shopping. Pay attention to safety and the way back. I don't care about anything else. Everyone should change into local clothes."

The clothing in Zhenwei Continent is actually quite rich. They have seen a lot of different clothing styles while walking on the business road these days. But what they wore themselves was still too out of the ordinary, too alien.

Think of a bunch of pullovers, jeans and sweatpants that appear in costume dramas...

Yu Heng is also going shopping with his parents.

He now has a hundred crystal coins on hand, and plans to buy some good things and store them in a storage ring for emergencies.

At the same time, he also needs to purchase food. All the rice he saved has been used up, and a lot of other ingredients are also consumed. Although he has seeds, he obviously doesn’t have the conditions or time to sow them now.

So I had to go shopping outside.

When he came to the rice store, he found that ordinary rice was sold for three crystal coins per kilogram. Yu Heng first bought two hundred kilograms, and after bargaining with the shopkeeper, he also bought some grains and beans for six crystal coins.

After that, I also bought some dry ingredients produced in Zhenwei Continent.

After visiting the food stall, Yu Heng wanted to buy a horse, but a horse cost more than 200 crystal coins, so he couldn't afford it.

The donkey is cheaper, costing more than 100 crystal coins.

Only then did Yu Heng truly understand that the livestock used for transportation in this place were so expensive, and he didn't even buy them in the end.

Mother Yu said worriedly, "I can't help but spend all this money."

He also wanted to give his own crystal coins to Yu Heng, but Yu Heng refused to accept it: "Mom, this is your own pocket money, how can I accept it? Well, mom, don't you have some too... buy something and save it." "

Mother Yu thought for a while: "That's okay." Then she went shopping and looked carefully, planning to buy some affordable things.

Next, Yu Heng took his parents to a clothing store and bought some local clothes.

They first went to low-end ready-made clothing stores, where the quality of the fabrics was average, but the advantage was the low prices.

If the clothes you wear are no more comfortable than the clothes you are wearing, isn’t that just spending money to get yourself into trouble?

So I didn't buy it.

Later, I asked for directions to a mid-range ready-to-wear store and successfully bought one for my family.

They didn't buy a long-sleeved robe. They just told the store clerk that they wanted something that would be convenient for movement.

The clerk nodded in understanding and recommended several styles to them. They all had sleeves and waisted waists, and the robes were close-fitting but not tight. They were knee-length. Of course, they also needed to wear pants. After Yu Heng put them on, Yu’s mother kept saying yes. :"Spirit!"

My son looks so handsome~

Yu's mother was so pleased that she chose several outfits for her son. Finally, she remembered her own Lao Yu and chose them for him.

Father Yu held up a pinch-waist undershirt and gestured at Mother Yu: "You look good in this."

This made Yu's mother blush: "What kind of skirt should I wear at such an old age? It's not convenient to move around." She took it in her hand, touched it, and compared it.

Yu Heng said: "Buy, buy, buy, I can wear it when I am free and shopping."

In the end, the family returned home with a full load. Clothes in mid-range clothing stores were reasonably priced. They bought ten pieces of clothing for more than a hundred bone coins.

One of them was chosen by Yu’s mother for Cui Nan.

As the lanterns came on, the streets were still lively. The family went back to the night market and felt in a good mood.

Finally, we ate soup dumplings and bought some snacks, then returned to the hotel.

As the night went on, all the people who had gone out came back. Everyone changed into new clothes and looked more like locals.

Dong Jianlan was still wearing a skirt, and kept her head down sheepishly, leaning against Lin Minglei.

Lu Aixuan looked hot and secretly pinched her husband several times. The couple leaned their heads and talked. Chen Yuanlin must have been nagged again.

Yu Heng spread the snacks on the table: "Eat them all. Go to bed early after eating. We have to get up early tomorrow."

As a result, only a few people could sleep that night.

At dawn, they began to prepare for the road.

On the way, Yu Heng also asked Wu Chengping about the price of the horse. Wu Chengping said with a smile: "If you want to buy it here, it will definitely be expensive. The average businessman will not buy it here. If someone really buys it, it will be an emergency." There is nothing you can do, or you will be taken advantage of."

Both of them laughed, and Yu Heng humbly asked: "Where should I buy it?"

"There are several places, such as the Western Qizhou, where there are continuous grasslands and the largest horse farm in the entire Western Continent. The horses there are excellent! Because they are large, the price is also good. A top-quality horse only costs It sells for more than seventy crystal coins, and if you buy more, you can still negotiate for fifty crystal coins."

I did my best to help Yu Heng popularize some common knowledge.

In order to thank him, Yu Heng gave Wu Chengping a bowl while making lunch.

Wu Chengping said nonchalantly: "This noodle is really good." What he cooked for lunch was instant noodles. Yu Heng bought a lot of them before and usually ate less. However, the shelf life of this stuff is not very long, so he just consumes a little bit from time to time.

Wu Si took a sip of the soup and sighed: "I don't know how the seasoning was made. It smells weird."

Instant noodles become more and more fragrant the more you smell them, and the soup tastes strong enough. It is also delicious when used to soak steamed buns, dry pancakes, etc.

Wu Chengping was thinking about it after eating it once, and his men's throats became dry due to the smell, and they couldn't even chew the steamed buns.

Wu Chengping was also a generous person. He bought it directly from Yu Heng. After he came back with a box of instant noodles, everyone sighed after studying it: "This package is quite tight. What is this word?"

"Oh, it smells so good. Brother, give me a pack to chew on."

A box of instant noodles was exchanged for ninety bone coins, and Yu Heng was quite satisfied. This thing is convenient and satisfies cravings, but the real nutrition is rice.

Later, Wu Chengping came to buy it, and Yu Heng sold four more boxes, and planned to keep the remaining two boxes for himself to eat slowly - these are out-of-print instant noodles.

When he came to town again with the money, he went to a restaurant and ordered a local specialty tonic soup, and ate it with his parents and Cui Nan.

"It tastes great."

"I still remember the snake Xiao Cui caught before, and the stew was so delicious."

Cui Nan smiled: "I'll catch a few in two days."

I have been busy recently and have no time to cook. Yu Heng said, "Is it difficult to catch? If not, let's wait a while before catching it. When we reach the destination of Wu Lao Da and his group, we can make snake soup and snake soup after we have settled down."

"It's not difficult, then we can catch it when the time comes."

After deciding on the menu, the four of them happily drank the tonic soup, ordered two more dishes, and had dinner in a lively atmosphere.
