Chapter 480 The Correct Use of Money
Chapter 480 The Correct Use of Money
It turns out that the younger sister's development of the Imperial Capital planet is to some extent better than that of her brothers Ryan.
The car followed Xu Weiwei for nearly half an hour and arrived at an even more unfamiliar place.
"Master, the car can only go so far. If you go any further, you will need to get off and walk."
The two could tell without the driver telling them that they seemed to have arrived at a market. Almost no one was empty-handed, and they were all followed by cargo robots. Some of the cargo was already piled higher than a person.
The festive atmosphere here is even stronger than just now.
However, seeing this lively and peaceful scene, the two brothers not only did not feel the slightest bit, but frowned, and their faces instantly turned ugly. Especially Kane.
Such a place almost immediately reminded him of that profound lesson.
Without even thinking about whether he would be recognized, Kane couldn't wait even a second and decisively opened the car door and got out.
"Young Master!"
"Brother! Wait a minute!"
The driver and Ryan also hurriedly chased after him.
Kane walked past a stall selling hats without stopping, picked up a black wide-brimmed hat and put it on his head.
The boss was anxious and was about to chase him out, but the driver immediately stretched out his hand and asked, "How much?"
The boss was about to say forty, but the next second another person took one and left without even turning back. The driver looked at him calmly. The boss paused and said, "Eighty."
In addition to the masks in the car, Kane also bought a hat, scarf, and gloves along the way. Ryan looked at what his brother took and bought the same one for himself. The driver was responsible for the aftermath and followed them to pay.
This place has reached the border of the sixth ring road. It should be a large-scale market with a relatively complete range of products, resulting in an extremely large flow of people. People from the fifth to the eighth ring roads come here to purchase.
While Kane was watching his sister's movements, he took the time to search the Internet. As expected, this market covers an area of 40 square kilometers, spanning two zones, and is the largest shopping area on the Imperial Planet.
The customers are not only humans, but also many aliens who live and work in the Imperial Star. The local residents have long been accustomed to it and can ignore the strange appearances such as eight hands, cement color, and cauliflower head.
After all, no matter how novel it is, you can’t resist watching it every day.
People like Kane and Ryan were submerged in it and became less conspicuous. Only by occasionally peeking from under the brim of the hat can one catch a glimpse of their casual and heart-stirring handsomeness.
Xu Weiwei chose this place because of the rich "species diversity" here. Xu Weiwei thinks that it is good for Gantz to meet more people and meet different people.
It was already past one o'clock, and the two were already starving. There were no decent restaurants in the market, only small fly restaurants and food stalls. Although the conditions looked simple, they were affordable and delicious, and they were all serving familiar business, so there was no need to worry about being ripped off.
It’s not even past dinner time yet, and every store we pass by is packed with people.
Xu Weiwei asked Ganz what he wanted to eat.
Ganz twitched his nose twice, sniffing the aroma of mutton in the air, and pointed to a shop in front of him and said shyly, "This one smells so good."
Xu Weiwei glanced at the signboard - "Laoma Mutton Soup Noodles", smiled and said, "Okay, let's eat here. Go and report what you want to eat and tell the boss, I want a signature mutton soup noodle, no green onions."
Ganz went and came back with two lists a short while later. "The boss said there are too many people here at the moment, so we should wait for our number to be called."
"Have you paid?" Xu Weiwei asked.
"paid."
"Then did you ask the boss how many numbers are ahead?"
"No."
Xu Weiwei had expected this, so she calmly said, "Even though our number is '3', it doesn't mean there are only two people in line ahead of us. People on the scene can't judge. Some people will go somewhere else after getting their number and see that there is still a long time to go."
"So, the correct order should be to ask the boss whether we need to wait for a table, how many tables are waiting in front of us, and how long it will take for us to get a table. In this way, we can decide whether to wait here or change to another restaurant."
Ganz suddenly realized. "I'll go ask!"
This time, Ganz came back with a frown on his face. "The boss said there are more than a dozen tables ahead. We may have to wait for an hour. Do you want to wait?"
"It's up to you." Xu Weiwei said simply. "Do you really want to eat at this restaurant? If you do, we can follow the example of the people in front of us and go somewhere else first and buy some food to fill our stomachs. But remember to come back quickly, because if you miss your number, it will usually be invalid and you have to queue up again."
Gantz listened carefully and nodded continuously.
"Or, there is another simpler way." Xu Wei said with a smile.
"What?" Ganz's eyes sparkled with curiosity.
Xu Weiwei stood up, cleared her throat, and said in a loud voice: "Who in the front line wants to change numbers? It's paid! Two hundred!"
As soon as he finished speaking, people gathered around him.
"Is my number okay? 95, there are eight tables ahead."
"Tsk! You stay away! I'm 90! There are only three tables in front!"
Xu Weiwei looked around, raised his head and asked again: "Is there anyone closer? I can add a hundred."
This time someone stood up again, "I'm 87, I'm next, do you want me?"
"Yes!" Xu Weiwei readily took the number plate with 87 printed on it and transferred the money to him in person. The others returned to their seats in disappointment.
Xu Weiwei led the confused Gantz into the store where there were empty tables.
"That's okay..."
"Of course. Money can buy things, it can buy time, even life has a price. If it can't buy anything, it means you don't have enough money."
Gantz showed a look of disapproval. This was the first time he had a different idea from Xu Weiwei.
Xu smiled faintly. Outside, it was not appropriate to discuss such topics too deeply, and Gantz's personality made him unable to listen for a while.
"Let's order."
"It's already past the order." Ganz thought she had forgotten and reminded her.
"The dish we just ordered is number 3. It will take ages for it to be served. Let's order again."
Xu Weiwei taught Ganz to touch the optical brain to the sensing area on the dining table and complete the order by himself on the page that popped up. Before placing the order, Ganz glanced at Xu Weiwei.
"Even if you eat three bowls, you still won't be full. Noodles are easy to digest and won't fill you up. Look for the side dish area next to you and order meat and other food."
"okay."
Just after they placed the order, a woman who was either a waitress or the boss came over and said to them with an apologetic smile, "Handsome boy and pretty girl, I see there are only two of you. Can you share a table with other customers?"
Gantz, who was kind-hearted, subconsciously agreed.
Xu Weiwei got ahead of him and refused directly: "No. We don't accept shared tables. There is not enough space."
