Chapter 989 The Vegetable Market in Honglian Town
Heath has been to many vegetable markets, such as the largest and most luxurious Jinhuang City vegetable market, the smallest Zhenxin Town vegetable market, and the vegetable market in Hualan City. Heath has seen all those vegetable markets, but he has to Said that the vegetable market in Honglian Town is more interesting, Heath admitted that he had never seen such a unique vegetable market.
As soon as you walk into the vegetable market in Honglian Town, you will be greeted by a unique smell of seafood. I have to say that this smell makes people uncomfortable, unless you often smell this smell, then naturally you will not I think there is something wrong, after all, it is the reason to live in the abalone place for a long time without smelling its stink, but apart from these unpleasant smells, I have to say that the vegetable market in Honglian Town has a vibrant aesthetic.
The reason is because you can see seafood that is still struggling to survive everywhere here. You can’t see so much seafood in other vegetable markets. Those men and women came over with net bags and threw the seafood into a special pool. Heath even saw something similar to a crayfish, and he didn't know if it was the kind of crayfish he ate in his previous life, and Heath also discovered another problem.
"Master, are the pumpkins we eat so expensive?" Xiaoyao also noticed this problem. She pointed to the vendor selling vegetables on the side. There were pumpkins and some other vegetables on it, but the price of pumpkins here was as high as 28 a kilogram. , This is more expensive than some meat and seafood, and all other vegetables are all higher than the average price, which makes people a little dumbfounded.
"Maybe it's the geographical location here." Heath guessed some possibilities. After all, Honglian Town is surrounded by sea, and there is no environment for growing vegetables on the island, so people in this place probably have to come from Zhenxin Town. Vegetables and fruits are imported there. Originally, the price of vegetables may not be very expensive, but if the shipping fee is added, the price will naturally increase a little. Of course, this is just Heath's guess. The understanding is not that deep, so naturally I don't know whether my guess is accurate or not.
"Boss, why is your little cabbage so expensive?" Heath leaned over and asked, asking if he didn't understand. I am also very curious, after all, even the Pokémon chef who is already familiar with cooking has never seen such an expensive vegetable.
"Brother, are you a foreigner? You can't grow vegetables here in Honglian Town. These vegetables are shipped here, so the price is naturally a bit more expensive." It’s because they spend a lot of time in the sun, and Heath hurriedly thanked the other party after hearing this. It’s similar to what he thought. The reason for the high price of vegetables here is because of the shipping fee.
The technology tree of the Pokémon world has always been very interesting. There are some black technologies and some backward technologies. Among them, freighters are relatively backward, and the price of sailing ships in this world is not very cheap, because you need to pay a sum of money. Environmental maintenance fee, so if it is shipped by ship, the price will naturally be much higher than that of the previous life, and the environmental maintenance fee collected by the alliance is also specially used to maintain the marine environment, and it has to be said that it has done some practical things.
But also because of these high shipping costs, the ingredients delivered by the ship naturally increased. Heath suddenly felt that even if the future Red Lotus Town was not destroyed under the volcano, it would probably not last long. After all, people who eat food Price is too high.
"...You are definitely not a local. We locals are subsidized by the alliance when we buy vegetables, and the subsidized prices are similar to those in other local vegetable markets." The uncle was still talking, and Heath was a little bit dumbfounded. This uncle is really an overly enthusiastic person, but Heath won't hate this kind of enthusiasm. After all, this can be regarded as solving some of the confusion in Heath's heart.
Heath didn't buy vegetables. He turned around and went to the seafood area to buy a lot of fresh seafood. The seafood here is very cheap, so Heath naturally needs to buy more. As for vegetables, Heath still has some reserves in his storage room. , enough to be used in Honglian Town, so Heath did not purchase those expensive vegetables. For vegetables, Heath planned to wait until other cities to buy them.
"Hey, master, there are lobster minions here." Xiaoyao pointed to a vegetable vendor's booth, Heath took a look, there were many lobster minions in a small pool, and there was a price tag hanging on it, A lobster minion costs 180 alliance coins, which is not very expensive. After all, the lobster minion is quite heavy, but looking at those water-type Pokémon, Heath couldn't help scratching his head.
"Do you want to eat it?" Heath had a strange expression on his face. Lobster minions in this world are naturally edible. They taste similar to ordinary lobsters, but the meat is said to be firmer, probably because they are often active. The reason, and the alliance also encourages the consumption of lobster minions, because the breeding ability of these lobster minions is too terrifying. If they are not restricted, they will quickly become super numerous, which will affect other Pokémon and creatures, and even Even the Ironclaw lobster is on the list of edible Pokémon.
"Yeah! My dad once made lemon lobster for me, it was super delicious!" Xiaoyao nodded, and Heath simply bought a lobster soldier when he saw the change, and he was also mentally building himself along the way. After all, this time I really ate a Pokémon. The childhood filter was torn to pieces, but Heath quickly adjusted his state. After all, he has been in this world for so long. For these Heath himself was somewhat psychologically prepared.
The Scallion Duck is also very calm. Heath pays more attention to the Scallion Duck's opinion. After seeing that the Scallion Duck has no opinion, Heath is relieved. He brings the lobster soldier to the dining car, and then plans to make a meal. A unique breakfast, he plans to use lobster meat to make breakfast this time, part of it is used to eat lemon lobster meat for Xiaoyao, and the other part is made into lobster noodles for other Pokémon.
"Huh" Heath took a deep breath, then licked his lips, then silently picked up the kitchen knife, looked at the lobster soldier in front of him, adjusted his state, and now he can start cooking lemon lobster meat.
