Reckless Through The New World

Chapter 629: Noon in Tarakhan City

The sun is gradually in the middle of the sky, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Tara Khan at the beginning of May, at this noon, can already clearly feel the breath of "summer".

Axi, who set up a stall near the city gate, looked at the sky and shook his head. He went back to the house and took out a few large bamboos and a bundle of thick cloth. He inserted the bamboo poles into the pits that had been prepared earlier on the ground, and then put them up. The four corners of the thick cloth were tied to bamboo poles to make a simple awning.

"The weather is really hot this year!" said Ren, who was selling pancakes across the street. "In May last year, it didn't seem like it was so hot."

"After eating well in the past two years, the stomach has accumulated oil and water, so it is easy to get hot." A young man in a white coat passing by said with a smile, "In a few days, you will be even hotter. This summer, It's tough!"

Axi was stunned for a moment and asked suspiciously, "Doctor Jeanne, how can you tell that I have eaten well in the past two years?"

He has indeed eaten well in recent years. Since the new earl took over, he has reduced taxes on the one hand, and promoted production on the other, and the entire Tara Khan Territory has prospered a lot. Although the number of adventurers has been greatly reduced due to the Demon King in the North, the weapon shop is very complaining, but the commoners have money in their pockets. Small fruit stalls like him, and small restaurants like Ren, will naturally have great business. Increase.

If you have money, of course you can eat well. For example, fruit, although he used to sell fruit, but he was really reluctant to eat it - all he ate was money! Only those fruits that have been around for a long time and are about to spoil will he slowly enjoy them with his family with regret.

But now the situation is different, fruit has become a normal part of their family's diet. Especially when his wife listened to Master Anka Star's health care lecture, she often said "balanced nutrition", "balanced diet" and so on. This woman ordered everyone in the family to eat at least one fruit every day, saying that this would help you live longer.

well! Isn't that a waste of money! Longevity... We little people, what is the benefit of living a few more years?

Although he often complains like this, Ashe did not object to his wife's practice. He has suffered for most of his life, and he has only lived a good life in the past two years. Seeing that he is nearly fifty years old, this life is coming to an end, and he really wants to live a few more days like this.

According to the bard, prosperity is a day-by-day process, and the city of Tarakhan will be better next year than this year, and the year after will be better than the next year... Such days will not be more than a few years, and even if you die, you have to laugh at yourself No luck.

So he actually cares a lot about "health care".

Hearing Axi's question, the young man in the white coat made Nai smile: "You can tell by the look on your face, your face is oily, on the one hand, you are sweating in the sun, on the other hand, it also shows that you are You eat well, your body is full of oil and water. And your chin is almost two layers, obviously you are eating well... A fat man will not fall from the sky, can't eat enough to eat enough, why is he fat? "

Axi touched his chin subconsciously, and could indeed feel the soft fat, and couldn't help smacking his lips.

During this period of time, he seems to have eaten a little bit more... His wife also persuaded him that eating too much is not good...

"What about me?" Ren asked, "I'm not fat."

"But your eyes are very spirited." Jeanne said, "I am sure you are not the kind of powerful retired adventurer. Ordinary people should not have such bright eyes and so much spirit. According to the great doctor , this is called 'spirited and full of energy' - for ordinary people to be in such a state, they must have a good diet and daily routine, so that the body can continuously accumulate nutrients and strength, and accumulate to a certain extent, this will happen."

Ren smiled: "So, I'm much healthier than this guy Axi?"

"Yeah, Boss Axi really needs to pay attention. If you eat like this, it's not good for your health." Jeanne also smiled.

Axi blushed when they talked, touched the short hair on the top of his head, and laughed.

At this moment, Axi's youngest son, Blake, who became a policeman not long ago, came over with a small box and shouted from a distance, "Dad, I got paid and bought a juicer!"

"Juicer? What is that?" Ash asked in confusion.

Blake proudly opened the box, and the thin wooden board was obviously washed and sun-dried straw, and there was no dust. In the middle of the straw, pieces of metal were oddly shaped, and only one of them could be seen that looked like a funnel.

Blake obviously knew what to do, and assembled the parts into a strange thing. It has a funnel with an upward opening at one end, a flat duckbill at the other, and a small drawer at the other. Blake picked up a cup and placed it under the duck's beak, cut another piece of fruit, stuffed it through the funnel above, and turned a handle, only to hear a creaking sound, and the fruit soon disappeared completely. In the funnel, after a while, orange-yellow juice flowed out of the duck's beak, which was clearly juice.

"Ah?!" Ren didn't know when he had come over and asked curiously, "This thing can squeeze the fruit into juice? What about the fruit? It's all turned into juice?"

Blake smiled and opened the small drawer, which was full of dried and broken pulp.

Axi took a closer look at this thing and shook his head: "It's a bit of a waste to squeeze half a cup of juice from one fruit."

"How can you call it a waste? Dad, do you know how much this glass of juice costs in the tavern? A silver coin!" Blake exclaimed, "How much for two fruits!"

Axi was stunned for a moment, thinking that it seemed to be the case.

He usually sells fruits, and he always needs a dozen fruits to get a silver coin. Now two fruits can squeeze out a cup of juice, which is obviously a big profit.

And with this thing, he can also do the juice business by the way. Even if it is cheaper, two glasses of juice and one silver coin, it is still very profitable.

Thinking of this, he was about to praise his son for his vision, but he heard Ren smile and asked, "Little Blake, how much did you buy this thing?"

Blake's expression froze immediately, looking left and right, hesitating.

Ash frowned and asked, "How much?"

"No... not much."

"How much!"

"Three gold coins..."

Axi was so angry that she even choked on her breath and almost didn't jump up.

Three gold coins? ! One gold coin is ten silver coins!

"Prodigal son! Waste of money! See if I don't kill you!"

He was furious, he swung the fruit-cutting knife, and hit Blake with the back of the knife, causing Blake to run away in fright, shouting as he ran, "Get your breath away! Get your gas off! Isn't this a good thing? You sold it. For so many years, I have never drank fruit juice a few times..."

Because of his police training, Blake ran so fast that no matter how angry Ashe was, he couldn't catch up. When he returned to the stall unhappy, he saw that Jeanne had left, and only Ren looked at him enviously.

"Ahi, you bastard, little Blake has just received his salary, so he is in a hurry to buy something to squeeze juice for you... You old bald man, you are so lucky!"

Touching the top of his head with few hairs, Axi couldn't help but smile.
