Chapter 106 Is it okay to be self-sufficient?

For Ellis and others, the overall environment of Hope Village is definitely not worth mentioning compared to the town of Soller where they are located. After all, the town of Soller where they are located is a territory with tens of thousands of residents and a population of

The economy is very prosperous.

When compared with the small town of Soller, Hope Village pales in comparison.

When they first entered, although they heard the residents of Yuxi Village mention the delicious food here, they didn't pay much attention to it.

How can a village's food compare to their small town?

The so-called commercial street is pitifully crude compared to their small town.

But after they followed Bayer and Zhou Bai around the commercial street and ate a food called hamburger, there was only one feeling left in their minds.

Everything I have eaten in the past twenty years has really been in vain.

So, after burgers opened the door to a new world, Ellis and others couldn't hold it anymore, so they started eating all the way from the burger restaurant.

"Tofu brain? It's so smooth and tender. I've never tasted it before. Both sweet and salty ones are delicious."

"This is the first time I have eaten such delicious jerky. The honey flavor is really good."

“This meatloaf is also delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.”

"Potato cakes are also good, you should try them quickly."

"Ciba? It's a little sticky, but... it's delicious."

"This pan-fried bun is also very good, I like it so much."

"

"..."

"God, my stomach can't hold it anymore."

"Me too."

"..."

As time went by, the mercenaries who were originally holding them completely let themselves go, addicted to the ocean of food and unable to extricate themselves.

After a while, everyone unconsciously filled their stomachs with food.

"Hiccup!" Ellis couldn't help but let out a long burp.

"How's it going? Didn't I disappoint you?" Bayer looked at Ellis's appearance and couldn't help but ask with a smile.

No one can escape the temptation of delicious food in Hope Village.

Those who don't eat can't help but spend money on these foods, which is enough to prove the charm of these foods.

"If you take any of these foods back home, they will sell like crazy in Soller Town! There are so many kinds here!!!" Ellis couldn't help but exclaimed!

The other mercenaries on the side nodded fiercely in approval.

You don’t need all of them, you only need one of the delicacies. Once you learn how to do it, you can make a lot of money in any territory.

Zhou Bai heard their admiration for the food in Hope Village and said directly, "Speaking of which, I have plans to move things to other territories."

She originally wanted to form a team to go to the town of Benguela and the surrounding native territories! This team of mercenaries is a ready candidate.

The most important thing is that this group of mercenaries are still local residents. They definitely have enough understanding of the business transactions between the local territories, which can save them from making many detours.

It's better to come early than to arrive late.

Zhou Bai's words instantly attracted the attention of Ellis and others.

"Where are you going?" Ellis asked subconsciously.

Obviously, he really thinks this business can be done.

It's just that he knows better that behind these foods, there may be his own gourmet recipes. Even if he knows how to make them, without a recipe, he may not be able to reproduce such a perfect taste.

If you really want to do business, you can only move things, and they must be moved over short distances.

I glanced at the map and instantly located it on several nearby displayed maps, including the small town of Benguela.

Small towns will have a population of tens of thousands, and the market is definitely big enough.

This business can be done!

"The most important thing is the small town of Benguela." Zhou Bai said, and the location he mentioned suited Ellis's mind.

Ellis listened and said quickly: "Then I propose to focus on portable food. The food in the convenience store is good. It will definitely be very popular among professionals in the small town of Benguela."

As a mercenary, Ellis really likes convenience store food, which is definitely the best for survival in the wild.

Of course, if you enjoy it, other foods are better.

But who told them to do business now?

"In addition to delicious food, we hope that the village has other good products." Zhou Bai said, leading the group of mercenaries directly to the carpentry workshop nearby.

Did she know that Meng Chengzhou has been hoarding a lot of wooden products recently?

Meng Chengzhou is forward-looking when it comes to doing business.

Ellis also doesn't care about wood workshops. In many territories, wood workshops are obsolete buildings. Most of the people who go into the wood workshops to consume are ordinary residents of the territory. There are even many territorial wood workshops.

It has already disappeared into the territory.

So when they saw that there was a carpentry workshop here, even though they had the best location, they didn't even think about going in and taking a look.

But after entering here, I found that many things here are quite interesting.

"This carpentry workshop is not a territorial building, it was opened by a craftsman from our territory." Zhou Bai said directly.

Ellis listened and was a little surprised that it was still private?

Afterwards, Ellis stood in front of the display cabinet and looked at these wooden products.

After looking at it this way, I realized that the other party had quite a few varieties.

Kitchen supplies: chopsticks, forks, spoons, bowls, plates, wooden buckets, colanders, dinner plates...

Daily necessities: wooden basin, wash stand, sofa, bed, bunk bed, wardrobe, bedside table, dining table, desk, chair, bookshelf...

Weapons: Spear handle, wooden bow, whale tooth sword, bayonet...

Paper supplies: under development

Weapons are okay, no matter how special the wooden ones are, they are nothing compared to weapons made from other ores. No one will chase wooden weapons. They are suitable for ordinary people below level 10.

But other lifestyle products are different, as long as they can be used daily.

The tools used by the lower-class residents in other territories are mainly made of wood, but the tools in other territories are definitely not as refined and comfortable as here.

What surprised him even more was that the prices of these products were really low.

"These products should be easy to sell among ordinary residents in other territories, right?" Zhou Bai looked at their expressions and said directly.

Bunk beds, in particular, are definitely a highlight among ordinary residents and can save them a lot of space!

"Yes, but it can be easily copied." Ellis said bluntly after coming back to his senses.

Some of the things here are indeed very creative, but the technical content is also very low. For example, you can buy a bunk bed and learn it easily.

As soon as their front legs were selling well, products similar to the back legs were already flying all over the place.

It's really incomparable to gourmet recipes.

"Even if it's a copy, compared to this market, it's still a big deal, because they don't have that many craftsmen, so they won't have such favorable prices. Most of the wood workshops in other territories have been eliminated, haven't they?" Zhou Bai said bluntly.

It goes without saying that the world looks down upon those who work in daily life. In addition, their survival pressure is too high and they need to spend a lot of time and energy to collect materials. Not everyone can earn this money.

And when no one is willing, they hope the village will be willing.

Of course, if they are really willing to earn this hard-earned money, I can only say that they should earn it.

"Moreover, these are only the most basic patterns. We can also engrave and even color some of the products. They are as exquisite as iron products, but feel better." Zhou Bai said directly.

Blue Star people lack everything, but they will never lack creativity in this world.

She asked Bayer and the others and learned that the most popular items in other territories were iron and leather furniture, which were expensive and popular among nobles. They also pursued bright colors.

Under the same conditions, if wooden furniture can be made equally exquisite and the price is only half or even less, it will definitely become a new choice for many people.

Listening to Zhou Bai's words, Ellis's eyes lit up.

If the following points mentioned by Zhou Bai can be achieved, then this will indeed be a good business with small profits but quick turnover.

"If this is the case, the main focus is high quality and low price." Ellis said, his heart couldn't help but get hot, and then he sighed, "It would be better if the territory could have a regular and mobile merchant to cooperate with, the people of the elves

I’m afraid they may like this kind of furniture, and if the price is higher, they may be willing to do it.”

Elves advocate nature and primitiveness, and these utensils are really primitive.

"Itinerant businessman? There seems to be such a profession?" Zhou Bai remembered that one of the professions had the development direction of businessman.

Even her grocery store currently sells goods automatically because there are no professionals in this profession.

"Yes, there are very few people who start this profession. It can be said that they are only one in a million. But if you can start this profession, you will definitely become a guest in all territories, not just human territories, but also the territories of other races."
