I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property

Chapter 1899 - 1892: This Is the Legendary Meat!

The sales point for Soul Shard Suppressors is nearly the iconic building of the entire economic system of Fortress City Rose, even banks are far inferior to it. Therefore, the areas around those sales points are also the most bustling trading zones.

This free market is specially opened to residents; as long as you pay a certain fee, you can freely trade any non-prohibited items without any tax. In this place, you can find nearly everything outside of Soul Shard Suppressors and its related items.

Elixirs, weapons, martial arts techniques, technological products, etc., as long as your eyesight is good enough, you can buy whatever you need at a relatively affordable price.

"Selling a batch of Saint Grade Elixir, starting from 1 level nine Crystal Core!"

"Selling a Top-level martial arts technique, 10 Level Eight Crystal Cores!"

"Wholesale of materials of various grades, price negotiable, the more you buy, the cheaper, definitely cheaper than official outlets!"

...

As soon as he stepped into the trading market, Zhang Menglong’s eardrums were hit by all kinds of haggling sounds. Any of those stall owners might be strong individuals at the Peak of Divine Cultivator or even Dao Realm! However, under the management of this Fortress City, everyone is just at the same level, a small stall vendor; no one can use their strength to engage in forced buying or selling or malicious competition.

"Wow, it’s really lively!" Zhang Menglong actually liked this atmosphere a lot; those neatly aligned storefronts may look upscale and high-class, but they lack the lively feeling of these stalls.

"Brother Gu Xiao, I’ll first buy the supplies I need. That’s the management office; you can first rent a stall, and I’ll come to find you in at most an hour." Donak handed Zhang Menglong ten Level Seven Crystal Cores.

"These should be enough for you to set up a stall in a relatively good position for three hours."

"Not necessarily the best," Zhang Menglong smiled, "As long as there’s a spot, even if it’s in the corner, people will still come in droves!"

Following the direction pointed out by Donak, Zhang Menglong found the management office.

He paid 5 Level Seven Crystal Cores and obtained the right to use a stall with an area of three or four square meters.

Of course, good spots are reserved long-term, and it’s not something ordinary people can secure just because they have money; you need to have some special relationships.

Zhang Menglong’s stall was almost at the deepest part of the trading market; from the entrance to the trading market, you’d have to walk a long time to get there, and many people would have already bought what they wanted without even reaching it.

And a Level Seven Crystal Core, if alone, only a relatively powerful Martial Artist at the level Eight or Divine Cultivator level Nine can hunt, and such a price only gets you such a stall; it shows how tough life is for ordinary people in this Endless Land.

But Zhang Menglong’s goods don’t need eyes to be found!

He walked up to the stall; the owners of the adjacent stalls all looked sickly. Their stalls clearly lacked business, and Zhang Menglong noticed that these people were only at the Divine Breath level; most likely, they were hired by the stall owners.

One stall was selling weapons, while another was selling Crystal Core production materials.

With a new stall owner arriving, those people curiously eyed Zhang Menglong, wondering what he intended to sell here. There was already no business around here, just hoping not to have further competition.

Only to see Zhang Menglong calmly pull out a small table and chair, a small gas stove, and a metal grill plate with more than a dozen slots—these were all his tools.

Then, he took out a box—it contained what he had prepared yesterday; chilled overnight, they were still emitting biting cold air.

He spread a layer of oil over the grill plate and took ten hard items from the box, placing them on the grill.

A few seconds later, the fragrance began to spread everywhere.

"Smells so good!" The nearby stall owners were frantically inhaling through their noses, "What is this stuff, is it a new type of food!"

"This smell...could it be the legendary meat!"

"Meat! This is meat!"

"Little brother, what are you selling?" They couldn’t resist their curiosity any longer, asking even while their mouths began drooling heavily. They were born in this Endless Land and had never seen meat in their lifetimes. It was something legendary!

Zhang Menglong did not answer them. Instead, he set up a large LED screen at the side of the stall, with only a few words on it.

Blackrock Pure Meat Sausage

Price: 1 Ninth Grade Crystal Core

Discounted Price: 10 sausages at 10% off, 100 sausages at 20% off

"Grilled sausage? It’s really meat!"

"My God! There’s grilled sausage appearing in the Endless Land! What is this person’s background? Even the master of Fortress City wouldn’t have the chance to eat meat, right?"

"I heard from the Martial Artists coming from outside that meat is a wonderful thing, outside it’s trivially cheap! But once you enter the Endless Land, the space storage devices get filtered by spatial power, unable to bring anything along—this is a land without meat!"

"How did this person manage to get meat? Is it real or fake? And a grilled sausage costs one Ninth Grade Crystal Core; that’s too expensive! Who can afford it?"

"We can’t afford it, but naturally, there will be people who can. Yet, I’m still not sure if this really is meat; no one has seen it before!"

As the sausage gradually cooked thoroughly, the aroma spread further, reaching even distant stalls. They instinctively turned their heads to see where the smell came from, losing the mood for trading.

"This... this is definitely the smell of meat! No doubt!"

At the market’s entrance, on the most conspicuous stall, the hunched old man seated behind the salesperson he had hired suddenly stood up, with a look of nostalgia and yearning in his eyes. He sprinted towards Zhang Menglong’s stall as fast as he could.

Upon seeing the sausages, he nearly couldn’t resist snatching them right away, but remembering the Fortress City’s rules, he held back his greed.

"One Level Nine Crystal Core per sausage..." Others might be unaware of the true price of these sausages, but he wasn’t; outside, you could casually find Warcraft corpses, the cost of making these sausages could practically be ignored, yet he dared to sell them for one Level Nine Crystal Core!

"Little brother, aren’t you selling these way too expensive?" The old man couldn’t help but say.

"If you think it’s too expensive, you can choose not to buy," Zhang Menglong didn’t even raise his head to look at him; if he can find a second stall selling grilled sausages in this world, Zhang Menglong will have nothing to say.

Of course, the old man knew; once these sausages missed too, there’s no other shop for it. He hadn’t eaten meat for too long, seeing it is one thing, having it this close, he wished he could purchase the whole stall!

"Give me one!" The old man directly handed a Level Nine Crystal Core to Zhang Menglong.

"Alright!" Zhang Menglong sprinkled pre-prepared cumin and pepper on the sausage, "Want it spicy?"

"Mild spicy, mild spicy!"

"Alright!"

The old man hurriedly picked up the sausage, biting into it, and in an instant, he seemed to see his great-grandmother.

"This taste, it’s so nostalgic..."

The old man finished the sausage in a few bites but was clearly left craving more.

He gritted his teeth and took out nine Crystal Cores, "Give me ten more!"

"Thank you, sir!" Zhang Menglong happily took the payment and continued to flip the sausages on the grill...
