Chapter 81, Treasure

The upstairs seems to be the activity area of ​​the owner of this villa.

In the four corners of the second floor, there are four luxurious and spacious bedrooms. Each bedroom has two entire walls made of glass. Standing in the bedroom, you have an open-air feeling.

In addition to the four bedrooms, there is a living room, gym, yoga room and office on the second floor.

Egger and Joanna checked these places one by one and confirmed that they were safe.

When the two of them went down to the first floor, Andy smiled at Egg and said, "Man, we hit the jackpot. This house also has a basement, and there are treasures in it."

When Joanna heard that there was a treasure, she ran over quickly with stars in her eyes. Egger smiled indifferently, since the treasure was unlikely to be money or jewelry anyway.

Well, could it be a cellar of red wine?

That's not bad either.

The four of them stood at the dark entrance of the basement, all turning on their flashlights.

Going down the ladder in the basement, the basement is a whole space. It turns out that it is a large garage.

There is a row of very nice supercars parked in the garage.

"Wow! There really is a treasure!" Joanna ran over excitedly, and Andy shrugged.

Iger knew that the treasures Andy was talking about were definitely not these luxury cars.

In today's road conditions, driving such a delicate and fragile luxury car is really not as practical as a pickup truck.

Speaking of cars. Recently, the gospel team has been running out of fuel, and the Vance family’s inventory has finally been exhausted bit by bit.

Today, Vance and Clyde are studying the oil pumps and circuits at a small gas station in the community, preparing to use a small generator to make the gas station work. If the fuel in the gas station can be pumped out, it will be enough for the gospel team to use for a long time.

Egger followed Andy and Erica, and they walked to a door next to the garage. The door was open. Andy smiled at Egger and said, "Come and take a look, the treasure is in here."

At this time, a strong light came out, illuminating the entire underground garage. Egger turned his head and saw that it was Joanna who had started a sports car, and the lights automatically turned on.

Taking advantage of this light, Iger walked into the door. For a moment, Iger was stunned. It was indeed a treasure!

Egger looked at the thing in front of him greedily. Before he could see enough, his eyes suddenly went dark and the light disappeared.

After a few seconds, Iger got used to the weak light of the flashlight again. Outside the door, Joanna ran over excitedly. She said to Iger: "Eger, can I drive out? I promise not to drive it out."

Crash it, please~"

Egger had no time to pay attention to Joanna, he was observing these shiny things in front of him.

Seeing that Egger ignored her, Joanna turned her head angrily. She wanted to see what could attract the attention of young boys than the beautiful young girl in front of her.

Joanna turned around and saw that she was also shocked.

This, this is a treasure.

What appeared in front of the four people were cans piled from the floor to the ceiling, with no gaps left and right. These cans were neatly arranged according to different varieties, and Egger was studying how many varieties there were in the cans in front of him.

"Oh my god, there are so many, how much this family loves canned food." Iger gave up on distinguishing the various signs in front of him and said with a sigh in surprise.

Andy next to him smiled and said: "This is not for the master. These are the standing foods prepared by the stingy master for the servants."

Egg!

After listening to Andy's words, Iger couldn't help but cursed a word. If there is another word before this word, it must be a verb.

Judging from the size of this villa, there should be no less than 2 servants who look after the house on a daily basis. But it is really bad character to feed the servants this stuff all year round.

But another question arises, is it really cheaper to eat canned food than to buy it daily?

Egg raised this question to Andy.

Andy is very familiar with canned food. After all, it has not been easy to attract sponsorships in the past two years. In order to save money, he did not let the crew eat less of this stuff.

After Andy randomly picked up a few cans from the ground, he motioned for everyone to go out before talking, so as not to waste the power in the flashlight.

After returning to the first floor, everyone sat on the sofa in the lounge area next to the owner. Andy put a few cans in his hand on the table. He smiled at Egg and said, "Did you know that sometimes you eat cans?"

It’s definitely cheaper than if you eat fresh food.”

There are many reasons here, such as the storage and transportation costs of fresh food, market price fluctuations, etc. Andy is not going to go into detail, he will just give a very simple example.

Andy said: "A few years ago, Costco (America's largest membership-based warehouse chain store) launched a set called 'Doomsday Canned Food', which cost 8,500 dollars a set. It was robbed on the first day of sale.

Empty."

After hearing Andy's words, Egger's knowledge was refreshed again.

Crazy, this is.

When Erica heard about this thing, she was familiar with it, so she borrowed Andy's words and said, "I was going to buy it that year, but I didn't get it during the company training."

"Is this thing really that good?" After hearing what the two said, Egg suddenly lost confidence.

Seeing Egger's blank expression, Andy felt satisfied. It turned out that this talented young man also didn't understand something.

Andy said to Iger: "8,500 dollars a set, this is the retail price. If we negotiate with the merchant, I can get 8,000 dollars a set.

This set of cans is enough to feed a family of four for a year. If it is eaten by one person, it can theoretically last for four years.

Converting it, we only need 2,000 knives in food expenses per year. If converted into monthly expenses, it is..."

Andy got stuck at this point.

"$166.67." Iger casually reported the exact number.

Wow, it’s really very cheap.

I don't know if the price level is the same in the world. Before I came here, I often chatted with my classmates and friends in America. The topic of "low prices in America" ​​would easily come up when I had something to do.

My classmates and friends there generally reported that prices in America (after excluding labor costs) are indeed not expensive, but when you cook at home, your monthly food expenses are around $300, even if you have learned to adapt to the American diet.

(Simple and crude, not paying attention to taste), the monthly food expenses are also 200 dollars.

At that time, Iger joked that America had fried chicken. You could buy a fried chicken drumstick every day, cut it up, add a few slices of bread and a few lettuce leaves, and you would have everything.

At that time, the classmate got angry and cursed, saying: "A $1 fried chicken leg, do you know how that chicken grew? It was all stimulated by feeding hormones and various drugs.

Do you know about Lean Meat Gold? This thing is still blatantly added to pig feed. I have seen those second senior brothers, they are so strong that even I feel scared when I see them.

These junk foods are thrown to dogs in the Central Plains and they won't eat them. In America, only the poor and hungry guys don't care about this.

So do you know why the poorer Americans are, the more obese they are? This is because of residual hormones that cause obesity.

If you dare to eat like this for a year, you won't be able to stop weighing 200 pounds."

"Okay, okay, brother, what you taught me is that I was wrong."

After a conversation, Iger carefully admitted his mistake. He would never dare to make such a joke again. After all, he usually only eats farm chicken. Regardless of whether it was true or not, at least it felt like that.

Egg pondered for a moment and then asked Andy: "Does the more cans you buy, the greater the discount?"

"Yes." Andy didn't know why Egg asked such an obvious question.

Iger tried not to get too excited. He said, "Guys, I think there may be more than one set of cans in that storage room."

After Egger and Vance miscalculated the bakery's food inventory last time, he now remained cautiously optimistic about this unexpected surprise.

Andy smiled and said the same thing to Erica.

"Yeah, no matter what, let's try the taste of these cans first." After Joanna selected on the table, she decisively chose a can with a meat icon on it.

Seeing Joanna's happy look, Iger became malicious and said fiercely to Joanna: "I'm on duty tonight, Joanna is on duty for the second round."

"Okay." Joanna readily agreed, but she quickly said: "But I'll choose the room upstairs first."

After saying that, she took the can and ran happily towards the second floor while there was still some afterglow of the sunset.
