American Manga Dimensional Trader

Back home, Josie looked at the time, looked at her watch, it was about seven o'clock in the evening.

After thinking about it, I still called out the trader.

But this time, Daenerys appeared a little slow.

Josie waited for a full fifteen minutes, and when she felt like she couldn't wait, Daenerys dressed in cool clothes appeared on the screen.

Ah, it looks like I disturbed your good business! Josie smiled narrowly, looking at Daenerys, who was full of lust and lust on the screen.

Obviously, this queen of another world has just experienced a fierce battle.

It seems that Daenerys has returned to Meereen, and the object of her battle, Josh guesses, should be the leader of the second son of the mercenary group, Daario.

Now that you know, pick a better time next time. Facing Josie's ridicule, Daenerys said without changing her face.

The atmosphere of Westeros is very open, and Daenerys has experienced even more embarrassing scenes, so Josie's teasing can't affect the waves in Daenerys' heart at all.

But this is indeed a problem. Although trading is very important, it is not very good if it interferes with our personal life. In this case, let's set a fixed time. If there is any accident that causes the time to be missed, then the trading Just postpone it to the next day, Josh said.

That's right, so tell me the time. Daenerys naturally didn't have much opinion on this.

Then according to 19:00 of the system time, how about, the waiting time for each time is 10 minutes, that is to say, if anyone of us has not appeared at 19:10 of the system time, it will be automatically postponed to the next day, so unless there is some emergency In this case, we don't have to worry about disturbing each other. Josh looked at the time on the system and said.

Although it is a different plane, according to the reminder of the trading system, the time flow rate of all trading planes will be automatically synchronized with the plane where Josie is located, and the time displayed by the system is also based on his current Chicago time.

Okay! Daenerys agreed after thinking about it. This time is basically her rest time. After all, the nightlife in Westeros is actually very monotonous. Leo's beast was holding back a little bit, and his fighting power was outstanding, so she was unable to stop before delaying.

The time is set, so do you have any surprises for me today? Daenerys asked after confirming the regular trading hours in the future.

Sorry, because of a little accident today, I wasn't able to stock up. In order to apologize, I prepared something else for you. Josh said, and placed two kraft paper bags on the system transaction column. Ordered the transaction directly, without asking for money.

What is it? Daenerys didn't complain about Josie.

Although she values ​​firearms very much, because she already has the most powerful military strength in Westeros at this time, the demand for firearms is not very urgent in the short term.

But she is still looking forward to what novelty things Josie will prepare for her in another world.

Some sugar and chocolate, Josh shrugged.

As he said, the contents of the two kraft paper bags were a pound of sugar and a pound of chocolate, which meant that each was less than a pound.

It was bought at a store he passed by before he went to see the house with Margot after lunch.

Although the amount may seem small, don't think Josie is stingy.

But sugar was the most strictly controlled category of civilian goods during the American war, even more than tires and gasoline, and the standard weekly ration of sugar (including chocolate) per person was only 0.25 pounds, or about two taels.

And this pound of white sugar and a pound of chocolate are already the stock of all the sugar coupons of the black car dealer Mike.

I know sugar, but what is chocolate? Daenerys didn't think too much about it when she heard it was sugar. After all, as Queen of Meereen, she couldn't even eat sugar. Interested in chocolate.

A candy made from the fruit unique to our world that has a mood-lifting effect, explains Josie.

Wait, is this sugar? Such pure sugar? Daenerys was obviously interested when she heard Josie's explanation, but she was stunned when she opened the bag of white sugar.

While Westeros has dragons, witchcraft, and possibly even gods.

But its productivity, to put it bluntly, may not be as good as that of medieval Europe.

So even if there is sugar, it is at most that kind of rough brown sugar lumps.

Fine white sugar, unheard of at all.

Yes, that's sugar. It's called white sugar because it's as small as white gravel. Josh nodded.

Oh, my God, this taste is so pure and sweet. After receiving Josie's confirmation, Daenerys carefully used her slender little fingernail to pick a pinch of white sugar, slowly Into the cherry lips.

Immediately, he closed his eyes and enjoyed it as if he had tasted some unparalleled delicacy.

Looking at Daenerys' careful tasting process and her intoxicated look, Josh could not help but twitch his lips, and for a while he even suspected that what he was giving was not sugar, but some indescribable source of evil.

Sorry, I'm a little out of my mind, but I've never really tasted such pure sweetness! Daenerys said to Josie after she was intoxicated for a while.

It's okay, but I think you'll like it better after you try chocolate. Josh shrugged.

Thank you, I will taste it carefully, but such pure sugar should be expensive, right? Daenerys couldn't help asking.

Well, it's really expensive, after all, strategic materials are strictly controlled. Josie nodded. The two pounds of sugar and chocolate cost him $4 in addition to the ration coupons.

And how much does ordinary beef cost? 40 cents a pound.

This is still the price with ration coupons.

If you go to the black market to buy it with money, the price may have to double several times.

There is no doubt that this price is sky-high compared to the price of cheap white sugar in later generations.

In fact, the price of sugar in the United States is still relatively cheap.

During World War II, the most exaggerated increase in sugar prices was actually the chicken with feet.

During the peak period of its sugar prices, it was 770 times higher than that before the war, while war supplies such as grain and gasoline had only risen 50 times.

By the end of World War II, American soldiers could buy a gentle and considerate Yamato Nadeko with a piece of chocolate.

It's just that Qiao Xi said it was quite expensive. In the end, it was actually a low price for later generations.

But Daenerys misunderstood, thinking that Josie spent a lot of gold before.

Anyone who has watched Game of Thrones knows that Daenerys, as the queen, can be said to be very generous to her subordinates.

Although Josie was not her subordinate, but she contributed such precious food, she felt that she could not let Josie suffer.

As a result, the small hand volleyed and pulled, and the system sounded a transaction prompt.

Then Josh was dumbfounded.

Because there is gold on the trading column, a thousand ounces.

Is this woman crazy?

Sugar was expensive in ancient times, Josie knew it, but basically according to the ancient sugar-deficient medieval Europe and the chickens of World War II, the price is at most the same as gold.

But two pounds of sugar for a thousand ounces is thirty times the price of gold.

It still sells hammer guns, isn't it sweet to sell candy?

Fortunately, Daenerys's next words made Josie understand that she was not dizzy.
