Although Howard can attract some customers by lowering prices, it will never have any impact on Chris's ice cream business.
After all, the needs of both parties are different. The ice cream cakes cost two silver coins each, and they are in the high-end market.
Chris looked through his memory and found that his predecessor had eaten Howard's red date cake several times. It was nothing more than smashing the red dates and stuffing them into bread, adding a little sugar, and then selling it for three times the price of ordinary bread.
.
Snowflake cake, however, is something completely different. It is not an ordinary pastry, but the cream of the 21st century. Both adults and children love to eat it.
In less than an hour, Chris sold 80 copies, earning 160 silver coins and 80 reputation points.
Seeing that Howard couldn't afford any extravagance, Chris felt relieved and turned to Jonathan: "You guys check out the shops here, I'll take Linda to buy some fruit saplings."
"Yes, sir!"
Chris waved to Linda, and the little magician followed him.
The two of them walked outside side by side.
Chris remembered that there was a plant market in the east area of Mott City, where many free people were selling good varieties they had cultivated.
Some nobles would send their servants to select saplings and then transplant them into their own territories. After a few years, they would have a fruit forest.
"Chris, what saplings are you going to buy?" Linda was curious about everything in the city, looking around with her big eyes.
Chris said: "Apples, pears, grapes, oranges, etc."
These were very common fruits in previous lives, and they were also very easy to process.
Chris is going to teach the people in the territory to make some fruit wine, juice, and jam to enrich the industry in the territory.
When passing by the bank, Chris exchanged five silver coins for five hundred copper plates, ensuring that there would be a place where he would need change.
After a while, the two came to the plant market.
From a distance, they saw many people setting up stalls selling flowers, plants, and saplings in the market.
"Tuberose can repel mosquitoes and help you sleep all night."
"A fiery red rose can be given to a wife, a young lady, or a lover."
All kinds of hawking sounds can be heard all the time.
Chris pinched his eyebrows and said, "Let's go in and take a look."
"Yeah!" Linda was shocked. As a magician who specializes in plant magic, she likes this kind of environment the most.
The two of them walked towards the market.
"Master, the newly picked roses will look great if they are given to the lady next to you."
"Mint, refreshing and refreshing."
Chris simply ignored them and went to find his own goal.
"There are some apple saplings there." Linda pointed to a stall not far away with her slender finger.
"Let's go over and have a look!"
The two came to the stall. The stall owner was a middle-aged man in his forties.
"Boy, do you want to see the fruit saplings? The apples produced by the best varieties are big and sweet." The middle-aged man pointed at the saplings in front of him and said.
The green saplings are about fifty centimeters high, with fist-sized fistfuls of sand underneath. They are neatly placed on the table. There are more than twenty of them.
Chris asked: "How much does one cost?"
The middle-aged man opened his mouth, stretched out two fingers, and said: "It's not expensive, it only costs twenty copper coins."
Chris looked at Linda next to him.
"If you don't want this tree, this tree, and that one, we'll take care of the rest." Linda said confidently.
The middle-aged man opened his mouth in surprise. Although the apple seedlings in front of him were indeed carefully cultivated varieties, he actually put in the three defective apple seedlings that had failed before. Even he, a fruit farmer for more than ten years, was surprised.
It is difficult to find those defective products.
But the little girl in front of her who was only fifteen or sixteen years old was singled out like this?
"Okay, after excluding these three, there are still twenty fruit seedlings left. Here are four silver coins." Chris placed four shining silver coins on the table.
After buying so much in one go, he could actually negotiate the price.
But now that Chris is not short of money, there is no need to waste money on such a small amount of money.
"Thank you, Master." The middle-aged man smiled happily. Although he did not sell the three defective plants as good ones, he was still very happy to sell so many fruit seedlings in one go.
Chris touched his palm on the table, and twenty apple seedlings were collected into the space ring.
"Let's go to the next stall."
"good!"
With Linda's help, Chris avoided many defective varieties.
He gained a lot from this business and bought a total of 20 apple seedlings, 30 grape vines, 50 pear trees, and 50 orange trees.
The two were preparing to leave.
At this moment, Linda suddenly looked shocked, pointed in the distance and wanted to shout.
With quick eyesight and quick hands, Chris quickly stepped forward and covered her mouth, then followed Linda's gaze.
I saw a black seed placed on a stall more than ten meters away, about the size of a walnut, oval in shape, with a round and shiny surface.
Chris tightly covered Linda's cherry mouth, pulled her to the stall, and asked: "Boss, what is this black seed, and how do you sell it?"
The stall owner was a skinny man. He smiled and said: "Master, you are really discerning. This is our ancestral black pearl flower. The fruit it produces is like black pearls, which is very beautiful. Now we only need twenty copper coins."
, you can take it home.”
"Forget it, it looks so ugly, I won't buy it." Chris pulled Linda and started to leave.
"Hey, hey, don't go, just ten coppers will do, five coppers! Five coppers!" The thin man became anxious and shouted loudly.
He picked up this seed from the wild. He actually didn't know what it was. Based on the principle of making a little bit, he didn't want five copper coins too little.
Chris then turned back, threw down five coins, picked up the seeds and left without any hesitation.
After they were far away, Chris put down his hand covering Linda.
"You, why are you covering my mouth?"
Chris asked: "Let me ask you, what is this seed?"
Linda took a deep breath and said with piercing eyes: "This is the seed of a magic plant. I felt strong magic fluctuations from it. I didn't expect that you bought it for five coppers. This time we made a lot of money!"
"
Chris rolled his eyes and said: "If I hadn't covered your mouth just in time and asked you to shout out the name of the magic plant, I'm afraid the stall owner would have just sat down and raised the price ten thousand times to five gold coins.
.”
Linda stuck out her pink tongue playfully.
Chris is right, magic plants are sold for gold coins.
