15. Chapter 15 Eat Overlord Meal

Chapter 15 Eat the Overlord’s Meal

Xia Ningmeng looked depressed. At the age of fourteen, she came to such a strange place inexplicably. Wherever she went, she was disliked, ridiculed, and even bullied. Her parents who had cared for her since childhood were nowhere to be found.

She also has fear, uneasiness, hesitation and helplessness. How can a defenseless and weak woman gain a foothold in this world?

Xia Ningmeng didn't know, she only knew that the only one she could rely on now was herself.

Xia Ningmeng doesn't know where to spend the night tonight, she doesn't know if she can find her way home tomorrow, and she doesn't know if another bad guy will show up in the next second and look down on her. The future is so confusing...

Xia Ningmeng held back the tears that were filling her eyes and said very apologetically: "Master Jian, thank you very much for helping me when I was at my lowest. I will definitely repay you if I have the chance. Guanyin Bodhisattva will bless you."

."

Xia Ningmeng took a step back and said, "Master Jian, just say goodbye!

Xia Ningmeng turned around and walked away holding the 200 yuan that she thought was enough for her to eat today and find a hotel to stay in. She had never seen Arabic numerals in the Qin Dynasty. The chips marking the numbers were different and she didn't know it.

The two circles are numbers. I'm just guessing that one card is probably one hundred taels of silver, right?

There were cars speeding by on the road. Xia Ningmeng did not dare to cross the road, so she walked along the street of Jinmao Building. After walking only fifty meters, Xia Ningmeng saw a restaurant with many people inside.

Eat. The fragrant smell of cooking makes your stomach growl.

Xia Ningmeng glanced at the sign in front of the store. She didn't recognize any of the four words "Dynasty Seafood". There was also a sign at the door that said seafood buffet, 1980 yuan per person, but she couldn't understand it either.

With 200 taels of silver, you can buy 400 shi of grain in Daqin, which is enough to feed 20,000 officers and soldiers, so Xia Ningmeng does not think that holding 200 yuan is not enough to feed herself.

Before entering, Xia Ningmeng took a deep breath. With so many customers, it must not be a shady store.

Then after walking in, the clerk asked her out very politely, saying that she didn't have enough money. How could a fourteen-year-old girl afford a seafood buffet in 1980 without an adult?

Xia Ningmeng angrily held the two hundred yuan in her hand and threw out two words: "A black shop!" and left angrily. (Girl, you are eating next to the Jinmao, can you not be a black shop?)

Xia Ningmeng held the 200 yuan that she thought was 200 taels. She couldn't believe that Jian Jichen would trick her. Did she only give her 2 yuan for the exquisite hairpin that was obviously worth 200 taels?

Once again, Xia Ningmeng was on the verge of tears and could only look for pancakes or steamed buns, hoping that she could buy one with the money in her hand.

This time Xia Ningmeng walked a long way and detoured into an alley. Although it was dark, there were people coming and going. There were steamed buns on the steamer. There were many other foods, and the street was filled with the aroma of food.

Xia Ningmeng swallowed her saliva and asked, "Boss, how much does this cost?"

There is a signboard next to the stall, Chongqing Xiao Long Bao is 5 yuan, Wonton is 3 yuan...

The boss spoke in Sichuan dialect: "Bao buns cost 5 yuan a basket, what are you eating? Come in and sit down!"

5 yuan? Xia Ningmeng was confused. Want 5 yuan? Then she only had 2 yuan? Xia Ningmeng didn't have the courage to eat the Overlord meal. How can a famous lady have such a thick face?

Xia Ningmeng had no choice but to continue walking deeper. Along the way, she asked the boss how much the stalls cost. Finally, she found something she could afford, meat skewers for 2 yuan a skewer.
