Chapter 212: Faraway Cruise (27)
Qiu Shui, a straight man, had no idea why the young couple would disappear for so long and didn't think about it in any other way.
When I saw Shi Yunan being carried out, my first thought was that he was injured.
"Is it serious? I have medicine here."
After saying that, Qiu Shui prepared to take it out of his backpack.
"Ahem, nothing happened, the control room is not inside"
Shi Yunan's face turned slightly red. He raised his hand, clenched it into a fist, placed it to his lips and coughed lightly.
He was just drugged, not a drug that would cause amnesia. He remembered what happened inside better than anyone else.
Add to that his swollen lips, isn't it obvious what happened?
But Qiu Shui really seemed to have noticed nothing and sent him a letter of the most sincere concern.
This made Shi Yunan feel more and more embarrassed. He quietly touched Xi Jingzhi's waist with his fingers and then pinched his waist through his clothes.
Xi Jingzhi chuckled and let Shi Yunan vent his anger on him.
"I also looked in the clothing store next door. There was a secret door inside, but it wasn't a control room either."
Qiu Shui raised his hand and touched his nose, with a bad expression on his face.
Shi Yunan discovered that Qiu Shui really hated this kind of thing.
"Go look somewhere else, let me go first"
After Shi Yunan finished speaking to Qiu Shui, he reached out and patted Xi Jingzhi's chest, signaling him to put him down.
Xi Jingzhi bent down, put Shi Yunan down, and then held his hand.
"Divide the troops into two groups? Then if something happens, just shout."
Qiu Shui hesitated for a while before saying that the troops should be divided into two groups.
He really can't eat dog food.
Although I'm a little hungry now.
Shi Yunan nodded in agreement and soon went off to look for it separately.
Qiu Shui went to the kitchen, and the shop outside was left to Shi Yunan and Xi Jingzhi.
The clothing stores are all opened in a row. After checking several clothing stores that also offer special services, Shi Yunan doesn't plan to go in here again.
“Try another store”
After saying that, he raised his foot and walked in another direction.
Daily necessities are sold there, and many things used by men, women and children are all concentrated here.
Shi Yunan pushed open the door and immediately saw what was on the first shelf: women's products.
These things were neatly placed on the cabinet. It was very full and there were a lot of them, but the outside of the packaging was already a little dusty.
The prices above are marked with single digits, most of which are 456. If you look further up, you will finally see multiple digits.
It is women's underwear, and the price above is 19.9 per piece.
“From this perspective, the ship is quite humane.”
After all, things here are sold cheaply, so more women will be able to afford these necessities.
"Wait, this symbol is not right..."
As soon as Shi Yunan finished speaking, he saw a small symbol behind the price.
19.9 $
Damn, this is US dollars.
Shi Yunan rolled his eyes.
No wonder everything here is covered in dust. If converted into US dollars, the price would more than double.
Shi Yunan walked to the back and saw the second row of baby products, including a lot of small clothes, toys, diapers, milk powder and so on.
Judging from the quantity, not much has been sold.
Look at the price, a can of milk powder is US$168.
A pack of diapers costs $78.
A small dress costs $56.
"..."
According to the current exchange rate, it would cost around 1,000 yuan to buy a can of baby formula.
A pack of diapers costs five or six hundred yuan.
So heartless. So heartless.
So do they pay salaries in US dollars or RMB?
When Shi Yunan thought of this, he suddenly remembered that when he and Qiu Shui exchanged identities together, they gave RMB.
No wonder it costs 300,000 to get a room...
He thought that changing identities was the most outrageous thing, but he didn't expect that the things sold here were equally outrageous.
Further in is the men's products area, which is different from the crowded shelves in front.
Everything here is almost sold out, it's very empty.
There were several boxes scattered on the ground, and it seemed that they had not been restocked yet.
The prices marked above are all one US dollar.
Looking at the sharp contrast between the two, Shi Yunan smiled inexplicably.
As we all know, people will laugh for no reason when they are extremely speechless.
Shi Yunan is in this state now.
Unfair, so unfair.
Women’s living space is being exploited everywhere here, and many people may not be able to afford to buy expensive necessities even once.
What is a necessity? It literally means something that is definitely needed.
Where there is demand, there will be production.
But the thing is, the greater your demand, the more expensive it will be, so you can only look at it but not use it.
Moreover, most of the staff here are men, and the only women you can see are salespeople in clothing stores.
And he was just a clothing store salesperson on the surface.
Shi Yunan sighed. Even though this was just a dungeon, all of them were monsters and NPCs.
He also couldn't really ignore these existences.
Humans have an innate gift, which is empathy.
People have seven emotions and six desires, it is impossible to really be free of desires.
What's more, among those who are currently practicing the Way of Ruthlessness, none of them has been able to graduate so far.
Realizing that his wife was in a bad mood, Xi Jingzhi raised his hand and scratched the palm of his hand.
"There is no secret door here, go out and look somewhere else."
After Xi Jingzhi finished speaking, he took him out.
At this moment, there was a sound of fighting suddenly coming from the kitchen, along with the roar of a group of people cursing and scolding.
This is the direction Qiu Shui is going!
Hearing the noise, the two of them looked at each other quickly and then ran towards the kitchen.
When I reached the door and hadn't seen the layout clearly yet, I saw Qiu Shui holding up a sword and directly chopping off the head of the person in front of me.
Then I heard his angry and trembling voice again, "How can you eat people!"
"If you don't eat humans, will you give us food? Do you know how hungry we are?!"
"That's right! If we don't eat, will you give us food? We are almost starving to death. We have nothing to eat or drink up there every day!"
"I'm so hungry. Do you know how it feels to be extremely hungry? Look at me. Is there any meat on me? It's all bones!"
"He wasted food, wasted food! He spilled our bone broth!"
Several men roared in anger, especially when they saw their accomplices being killed by the other side without even blinking an eye.
They looked at Qiu Shui holding the weapon and felt no fear, only anger and greed.
Another one died, and there is more food!
"I see that your badge is that of a minor noble. I don't need to look at it to know that you are the kind of high-ranking person who has food and water to drink every day. So why do you care about us lowly slaves?"
"We have a hard time even staying alive, and now we have no choice but to eat these. Why do you come to disturb us?"
A skinny woman looked at Qiu Shui sadly with tears in her eyes.
