499 Been a Long Time Since They Had White Rice

Qian Jiyun removed the water pouch from his waist and handed it to An Jiuyue.

An Jiuyue nearly vomited from the bitter liquid. When she saw the water pouch, she quickly took it and rinsed her mouth a few times before returning it to Qian Jiyun.

“Rinse your mouth too.”

“Mhm,” Qian Jiyun replied and took the water pouch.

“I finally know why someone built such a huge straw shed outside the Wood Domain to do business,” An Jiuyue said.

She had wondered why such a huge straw shed was built there. Moreover, it had no food. What was it for?

She realized it was for people to shower after passing through the Wood Domain.

People would feel uncomfortable if they did not wash off the dark green liquid. If she was not mistaken, this dark green liquid was a type of fuel that burned when set on fire.

Entering Huayan Peak was simple—as long as one was a powerful Original Soul cultivator, one could do it.

However, people would be unable to leave without the straw shed outside.

Unless they were like her, who had a microcosmic space she could enter at any time.

Qian Jiyun stayed silent with a mouthful of water. However, Yan Jin’s eyes lit up. Many people were envious, jealous, and hateful of the straw shed outside the Wood Domain.

“Master, although it’s only a straw hut, business is booming!”

“Do people leave Huayan Peak every day?” An Jiuyue asked.

It had been a few days since they came in, but they had not met anyone.

“They don’t need to have customers every day. One customer per month is enough to sustain those few people in that straw shed for an entire year on Huayan Peak. Bathing there costs more than using gold,” Yan Jin replied.

Most importantly, they had to wash up. Otherwise, they would not be able to leave. What else could they do? They had to spend this money.

“In short, everything in Huayan Peak is so expensive it’s… It can’t even be described as ridiculous. For example, five kilograms of white rice cost 1,000 gold coins.”

“That expensive?” An Jiuyue’s beautiful eyes widened.

Five kilograms of white rice cost 1,000 gold coins? Is gold at Huayan Peak so worthless?

“Wouldn’t it be very profitable to open a shop selling food at Huayan Peak?” she asked.

“Of course.” Yan Jin did not deny it.

However, could shops be opened on Huayan Peak so easily? The land was special. Besides some plants unique to Huayan Peak, other crops could not grow here.

The five kilograms of white rice he mentioned earlier could only be obtained from outside sources after much effort.

“You’ll know in the future, Master. It’s… difficult to have a good meal at Huayan Peak. It’s been a long time since our brothers here had white rice,” he explained, sighing at the end.

Surviving on Huayan Peak was a challenge.

“Is that why you brought this food?” An Jiuyue asked Yan Nuo and Yan Jin.

She knew that while Qian Jiyun was busy taking care of her, Yan Nuo and Yan Jin had brought a lot of food. There was white rice and wheat, which weighed at least a few hundred kilograms.

They carried everything on their backs and did not even put them down while digging for snowfish.
