Chapter 92: Discovering an Aboriginal Village and Purchasing Food
There are a total of eighteen militiamen here, including an elite militia captain.

Cao Xing took a quick look and found that these were all first-level creatures and posed no threat to him.

At this moment, one of the militia captains looked at Assam and asked, "Sir, this knight... Sir..."

"What are you doing in Hog ​​Village?"

He mistakenly thought that Assam, riding the Frostwolf, was the leader of this team.

And Assam waved his hand and said: "Please talk to my lord."

After hearing this, the group of militiamen all turned their eyes to the two people sitting on the back of the tracked robot.

They were instantly attracted by Liu Muxue's beauty and exclaimed, "What a beautiful lady... Is this a noble from the Ice Crystal Kingdom?"

Then, the group of militiamen turned their gaze to Cao Xing next to them and asked tentatively: "Hey, this, this... Lord... May I ask what brings you to our Hog Village?"

Cao Xing replied: "Nothing, I just passed by your village to see if I can purchase some supplies or do some business."

Hearing this, the militiamen slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Among them, the militia captain who was about thirty years old stood up.

"My Lord, our Hog Village welcomes wanderers and merchants from all over the world."

"But... I'm afraid your mounts and these mechanical creatures cannot enter the village... They will scare the villagers..."

As if afraid that Cao Xing would be angry, the militia captain said quickly: "But please rest assured, sir, we will arrange your mounts in the shed outside the village and will not let them be attacked by the wind and snow."

Hearing this, Cao Xing nodded.

"Yes, these are my companions, they are all very obedient."

The militia captain breathed a sigh of relief, then led Cao Xing and others to a shed nearby.

Although it was just a temporary shelter, it was relatively clean.

Cao Xing nodded and said, "Mu Xue, Asam, Sarah, follow me into the village."

"Andrew, Renis, take good care of our companions."

Since he was just going to the village to buy some supplies, he didn't need to bring too many people.

And with Sarah, a third-level leader, here, even if we encounter any danger, we can easily resolve it.

Renis and Andrew saluted respectfully, "We will follow your orders, Lord."

After thinking for a moment, Cao Xing saw the tree spirits in the corner and said, "Juliette, come with us."

Juliette looked confused, but she subconsciously jumped off the excavator bucket and walked to Cao Xing.

Then, the group of five left the shack and headed towards the village.

However, as soon as Sarah came out, she went into hiding. This was her habit, never exposing herself to the public eye.

Cao Xing didn't care either.

Soon, they entered the village.

[You have entered the neutral area: Hogg Village]

There are many houses in this village, and every household has a stove burning.

On the streets, there are many vendors pushing carts, carrying some vegetables, wood, coal and other fuels, selling them along the streets.

Seeing Assam in knight armor and Juliette with pale skin, the villagers looked at him with a mixture of fear and curiosity.

Cao Xing didn't care but looked at the buildings on both sides of the street.

[Blacksmith Shop Level 2], [Sewing Shop Level 2], [Ore Processing Plant Level 3].

These stores sell basic equipment and simple cold-weather clothing.

However, it is indeed difficult for such villages and towns to produce some skilled blacksmiths or sewing masters.

Cao Xing had no intention of going in. His purpose was to buy some food and then see if he could buy some cows or sheep and raise them himself.

At this time, Liu Muxue tugged at Cao Xing's sleeve and pointed to a corner of a house.

Following the direction Liu Muxue pointed, Cao Xing saw a thin young man wearing a cotton hat, looking at them with a scrutinizing gaze.

Cao Xing took a look at his attributes.

[Hogg Village Villager: Danny lv2]

After thinking for a moment, he took out a coin from his backpack and tossed it in the air.

The young man named Danny seemed to understand something and walked over nervously.

"Sir... May I help you?"

Cao Xing asked: "I want to buy some food, and I need you to lead the way for us."

After hearing this, villager Danny's young face flashed with a hint of adult shrewdness.

These days, only rich people can afford to buy food.

Villager Danny said hurriedly: "Sir, you can go to the grain store to buy food. I know the owner of the grain store. If the transaction quantity is large, I can try to get a discount..."

Cao Xing was delighted. This young man was quite capable. He could even hook up with the proprietress of a grain store.

He was so happy that he threw ten crowns directly over.

Villager Danny took it with joy and kept thanking him.

Cao Xing asked again at this time: "How long can you use a crown like this?"

Because he was not clear about the prices in this world, Cao Xing wanted to ask in advance to avoid being ripped off when buying food.

After Danny, a villager, received the money, he replied happily: "Sir, one crown can buy a piece of black bread in our village, and white bread costs three crowns."

As if knowing what Cao Xing meant, Danny continued, "Sir, according to the grain price in our village."

"For example, unhulled wheat costs 1 kilograms, hulled wheat costs 10 kilograms, and flour costs 15 kilograms..."

Danny finished speaking and Cao Xing nodded.

From this point of view, the purchasing power of currency in this world is still quite high.

Before Cao Xing went out, he had 35000 kronor in his hand. On the way, he met an unlucky chamber of commerce and picked up more than kronor.

All together, it’s more than 80000 kronor.

This is a huge sum of money, which should be enough to buy a lot of food.

Thinking of this, Cao Xing felt more confident.

At this time, villager Danny added: "Sir, the price of these grains is quite affordable, but if you want to enjoy yourself, the cost may be a bit high."

"Any drink at the Zhuolan Tavern starts at 30 kronor. The prettiest and coziest woman there even costs 400 kronor a night!"

Hearing the last sentence, Cao Xing's mouth twitched.

Damn, this little guy is young, but he knows a lot.

Juliette and Liu Muxue beside them blushed and turned their heads away, too embarrassed to listen any further.

"Stop talking nonsense and take us to the grain store." Cao Xing said speechlessly.

"Yes, sir."

Villager Danny led Cao Xing and three others forward.

As we walked along, we also saw various vendors shouting.

"This is a small exploration robot from the Frost Iron Kingdom. It can lead you to find various precious metals. It is a must-have for gold diggers. It only costs 1800 crowns."

"The Frost Heart Lotus produced in the Borelis Mountains has the effect of improving eyesight and calming the mind. The price is 3000 crowns."

"A group of snow wolves appeared near the Falling Snow Lake. We are now recruiting five strong men above level one to drive away the snow wolves. Each person will be rewarded 5 crowns."

"Baron Seldan will soon start the Knight Trial. Warriors with strength above level one can sign up and participate in the trial."

"Hogger's Hunting Lodge is purchasing a large amount of magical creature furs and other materials at favorable prices."

"Ruth's Tavern needs a batch of materials..."

Amidst the shouting along the way, Cao Xing and the others arrived at the grain store in Hoge Village.

As I opened the door, I suddenly felt a warm sensation from inside.

There were stoves on both sides of the hut, the fire was burning brightly and making crackling sounds.

I checked the temperature. [Current temperature: 7℃]

It’s actually not a negative number anymore. It’s really warm inside the grain store.

At this moment, a woman who looked to be around 40 years old, with a curvy figure and exuding a mature charm, was lazily lying in front of the counter.

When this mature woman saw Cao Xing and others coming in, her eyes suddenly lit up.

As a businessman with many years of experience, she knew this was a big business as soon as she saw the attire and outstanding temperament of Cao Xing and others.

"Hey, gentlemen, are you here to buy food?"

"Yes." Cao Xing said directly.

The grain store owner noticed Danny standing next to her and knew that they already knew the price, so she asked, "Gentlemen, how many pounds of grain do you want to buy? Do you want it peeled or not?"

"Little Danny should have told you that if you buy more than 300 kilograms of food, our grain store can give you a 10% discount~"

Cao Xing thought to himself, a 10% discount is pretty good.

If he buys in large quantities, he can save a lot of money.

So Cao Xing asked, "Besides wheat, do you have other food here, such as rice?"

As an Oriental, Cao Xing is more accustomed to eating rice.

After hearing this, the grain store owner looked at Cao Xing with her narrow and long almond-shaped eyes and chuckled, "Of course we have rice, but we don't have much in stock. I can give it to you at 10 crowns per pound."

Cao Xing nodded, having already made up his mind. He said directly: "I want 1000 kilograms of peeled wheat, 500 kilograms of rice, and 300 kilograms of flour."

As Cao Xing read out the numbers one by one, the joy in the eyes of the grain store owner became even stronger, and even her breathing became a little rapid.

She almost forgot how long it had been since she had done such a big business!
The proprietress asked tentatively, "Sir, are you sure you really want so much food?"

"Yes."

After getting Cao Xing's personal confirmation, the proprietress's breathing suddenly stopped.

When she looked at Cao Xing, a strong sense of liking for him arose in her eyes.

Then, the proprietress chuckled and said, "Dear guests, let me introduce myself again. My name is Elena Green. Thank you very much for taking care of my business."

After Elena Green finished speaking, she bent down slightly and bowed to Cao Xing, revealing the white area on her chest and a very full gully.

Cao Xing didn't have any ideas, he just nodded lightly.

Danny, a villager standing nearby, swallowed his saliva as he watched.

Elena straightened up again and said seriously, "According to the food that Your Excellency needs, the total cost is 35000 crowns."

"I'll give you a discount of 8.5%, and then round off the decimals, it will be 29000 kronor."

After saying this, she looked at Cao Xing with a gentle gaze, "Sir, are you satisfied?"

Cao Xing nodded and said, "Okay, but I don't have a carriage or a horse to pull the goods. Can you sell me one?"

Hearing this, Elena chuckled and said, "No problem, then I'll charge you 30000 crowns, how about that?"

"make a deal."

Cao Xing readily agreed, then took out a large pile of coins, a total of 30000 crowns, and handed them to Elena.

When Elena saw so many crowns, the charm in her eyes became even stronger.

Danny, the villager next to him, almost popped his eyes out!

This was the first time in his life that he had seen so much money.

Elena chuckled again and said, “Well, please wait a moment, my guests. I will arrange for someone to load the car for you.”

Cao Xing nodded and said, "Okay, let's go around the village and come back to get the food later."

"Okay, sir, please rest assured. I will never give you less weight. I promise you..."

Elena patted her full chest.

Cao Xing nodded.

Then he took the villagers Danny, Assam and others out of the grain store.

He wasn't worried that Elena would steal his money.

He already had a rough idea of ​​the defense capabilities of [Hog Village].

With the power he now possesses, it is enough to flatten this village.

In this world, force is everything.

"Axing, are we going to buy a cow now?" Liu Muxue asked softly.

Cao Xing nodded, "Yes."

Having just spent 30,000 kronor on food, Cao Xing still has about 50,000 kronor in his hand, which should be enough to buy a lot of yaks and sheep.

So, Cao Xing asked, "Danny, if I want to buy cattle and sheep in your Hog Village, what procedures do I need to follow or what procedures are required?"

Cattle and sheep like these are assets of a village. If outsiders like them want to buy them, they may need to go through some troublesome procedures.

After Cao Xing finished speaking, he took out another ten crowns from his backpack and handed them to Danny.

When Danny saw that it was another 10 crowns, he immediately took it with a smile on his face.

"Sir, there are no formalities required to purchase cattle and sheep. You just need to find the farmers, negotiate the price with them, and then get the approval of the village chief."

"I know several farmers, Jeffrey, Mel, and Harden. They all raise a large number of yaks, alpine sheep, and big-horned dairy cows..."

"If you need it, my lord, I can take you there."

Cao Xing nodded and said, "Take us over there to have a look."

"okay!"

This Danny seemed more enthusiastic.

Since he came into contact with Cao Xing, he has earned 20 kronor, which is almost a week's income for these ordinary villagers!
Led by villager Danny, Cao Xing and his party soon arrived at a three-story building that was more spacious than other houses.

Boom boom boom!
Danny knocks on the door.

After a moment, a voice came from inside, "Who is it?"

"Mr. Jeffrey, I'm Danny. There are a few adults from outside who want to buy a batch of yaks and sheep from you."

There was silence for a moment.

Then the door opened and a middle-aged man with a big beard, wearing loose clothes and without a belt, walked out.

Looking behind him, he saw a woman in her early thirties with a high nose, hiding behind the door of the room, sticking her head out and looking at Cao Xing and others curiously.

The bearded middle-aged man's eyes were also full of impatience.

The corners of Cao Xing's mouth twitched. It seemed like they came at the wrong time?
"Are you guys the ones who want to buy cattle and sheep?" the bearded middle-aged man said impatiently.

Cao Xing nodded, "Yes."

However, the bearded middle-aged man simply waved his hand and said, "Sorry, we are not doing business today."

This guy just waved his hand to drive them away, as if he was in a hurry to go back and continue fighting.

At this moment, his eyes noticed Liu Muxue and Juliet beside her.

Their stunning looks and tall stature immediately attracted the attention of the bearded middle-aged man.

He looked at Liu Muxue and Juliet with an aggressive gaze.

The two girls felt obviously uncomfortable being looked at by him.

At this time, Cao Xing took Liu Muxue and Juliette's hands and pulled them behind him.

Liu Muxue was fine, but Juliet seemed to be holding hands with a strange man for the first time, and she lowered her head shyly.

Cao Xing smiled and said, "I advise you not to look around, or you might suffer a lot."

There was a hint of threat in his tone.

The bearded man was instantly furious, "What did you say?"
