I became an internet celebrity by running a grocery store

Wang He looked at his treasure ship moored on the shore, already covered in filth.The majestic sails that should have been raised high had already fallen to the ground with the broken masts, stained with filth.

He stepped forward and stroked the rough side of the ship.The small gravel on it rubbed against his skin, and he didn't seem to feel any pain. He only felt that the treasure ships were becoming more and more blurred, overlapping in front of his eyes.

A month ago, he was ordered by His Majesty to take a boat with porcelain and silk to neighboring countries in exchange for food.

The Xia Kingdom is located in a wild place, with strong wind and sand, and little food output, which has been obtained by exchanging porcelain and silk.All along, it has been exchanged with the two neighboring kingdoms - Yue and Meng.

Unexpectedly, the locusts crossed the border this year, and the price of food went up, which was far beyond Xia Guo's ability to bear.In desperation, His Majesty sent him to another country by boat.Unexpectedly, there was a sudden gust of wind, and the storm rolled up the sea waves to line up with the sky.He opened his big dark mouth to swallow them all.

The rest of Wang He didn't know. When he woke up again, he was on the isolated island.Drenched people lay here and there on the shore, and he was the first to wake up.

He woke everyone up one by one, and together they carried off the silk, porcelain and gold and silver treasures from the ship.

Fortunately, sufficient preparations were made when we set off. Most of the porcelain is still intact, but the silk is all wet.He found a hemp rope and tied it to a tree, and hung the silk on it.

Now it's broken, and the silk stained with dirty water has been discounted both in color and texture, so it probably won't fetch a good price.

But the most frightening thing at present is not this, but the ship can no longer sail.In addition, the place where they are located is a deserted and isolated island, with nothing but coconut trees towering into the sky.

The food on the boat was about to run out. Wang He led a group of people to eat as little as possible every day, and survived on sour coconuts.But it is limited in the end, and there will always be a day when it is used up.Wang He looked up at the sky, full of melancholy, and didn't know what to do next.

"My lord, you can go."

Wang He nodded, turned around and followed his subordinates forward.What they are going to explore today is the forest to the west, and they don't know what they will encounter.Not enough. So far, I haven't encountered any beasts, just some giant snakes, which are not poisonous, and they have been caught and eaten by them.

After crossing the swamp, Wang He was a little out of breath.He hadn't had a serious meal for three days in a row, and his physical strength inevitably couldn't keep up.

"My lord, why don't we rest."

The subordinates carefully noticed his abnormality and ordered everyone to stop. Seeing everyone's tired faces and tough eyes, Wang He gritted his teeth and stood up after sitting for a long time, "Let's go."

The group of people walked forward for about two hours, but he couldn't remember it anymore.All he knew was that when he set off, the east side had just turned white, and a small corner of the sun had leaked delicately, and now it was hanging high above his head, wishing to drain the moisture from his body.

They rested for a while and then set off. They didn't turn back until the sun gradually shifted to the west. Today was another day without any gains.Wang He didn't know how to express his feelings, but he felt like a big iron pot was covering his head, making the eyes darker and darker, the air more and more stuffy, and he couldn't see a ray of light.

Returning to the treasure ship, Wang He ate two more coconuts and lay down beside the fire.The fire is burning fiercely every day, day and night.Its white smoke floating in the wind is a distress signal for dozens of them wailing, carrying their hope, expecting to be seen, and leading them to escape from this dead man's island.

Wang He put his hands under his head and counted the Big Dipper in the sky.His father had told him before that he could find a home just by looking at him.But now, he felt that he could not go back.

It doesn't matter if he died, what about the tens of thousands of people in the kingdom, they are still waiting for him to come back with food to celebrate.

A burst of mourning came to his heart, he slowly closed his eyes, and let the hot tears run across his face.

The next day they set off as usual. This time everyone's expectations had been half shattered, but under Wang He's order, they continued to move forward heavily.

There was another swamp ahead, Wang He skillfully took off his shoes, rolled up his trousers and walked forward.Just as he was passing by, he suddenly stepped on a soft object under his feet, which startled him, tilted his body, and fell to one side.The subordinate hurriedly grabbed him, but Wang He's body became as heavy as a thousand catties at this moment, and there seemed to be some kind of suction hidden under the swamp, which could not be stopped by human power at all.

There were only a few muffled bangs, and when Wang He opened his eyes again, he changed places.He was lying in a black hole, which was dark and narrow, with only a small beam of light faintly shining in front of him.

As soon as he sat up, his subordinates called out, "My lord, my lord."

"I'm here, don't worry."

The subordinate let out a sigh of relief, and then the five or six people who also fell also began to wake up one after another.Everyone found that they were not dead, and they were very pleasantly surprised, and then turned into fear and confusion.

"My lord, where is this?"

Wang He shook his head, how could he know.He walked forward looking for the light, and found a small hole the thickness of a finger on the stone wall, and the light came out from here.

He squinted one eye and looked closer, suddenly holding his breath.

He saw bags of strange things hanging from trees, colorful.It doesn't look like fruit, it looks like a glass jar from the West. It is crystal clear and contains pieces of brightly colored fruit.

Wang He instinctively moved forward to get a better view, but was blocked by a stone wall.

"My lord, what's going on outside?"

Wang He shook his head blankly, still immersed in the shock of the outside scenery.

The subordinate was a little anxious, so he lay down in the small hole and inspected the outside.Suddenly, a big bird flew over and rushed towards him with a sharp cry, as if it wanted to peck his eyes with its long beak.He was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, his face pale.

"Outside...outside, there's a bird."

"There's nothing scary about having birds." Someone chuckled.

"Not the same, bird, not the same."

Wang He looked at him, "What's different."

The subordinate swallowed his saliva, "Like...an eagle, with a long...beak, like a gnat. On the tail, there are peacock's feathers. It's a monster!"

Wang He opened his eyes wide and was very stunned. He hurriedly lay down on the small hole to look outside, but there was nothing.

The few people who fell also moved over one after another, but they still didn't see anything.

"You must have read it wrong." Someone said, "What should we do now? Why don't we smash this out, and we are waiting to die in here."

After hearing what he said, everyone agreed in their hearts, and turned to Wang He inquiringly.

Wang He was a little undecided at this time. He looked at his subordinates who were still in shock, and then at the cave, deliberating for a while.

"Break it open, let's get out."

"My lord!" shouted the subordinate, who stood up and stood in front of the stone wall.

Wang He looked at him and sighed, "This is waiting to die, why not go out and give it a try."

The subordinate looked at him seriously, as if feeling that he would not change his mind.Decadently lowering his arms, his eyes gradually dimmed.Then he pulled out the big knife at his waist, turned his hand, and started hitting the stone wall with the tough handle.

With the efforts of several people, several cracks soon appeared on the stone wall, and quickly spread to the surroundings like spider webs.The subordinate raised his foot and kicked hard, only to hear a 'dong' sound, and the dust flew up, everyone hurriedly turned around and covered their mouths and noses.When the smoke cleared, Wang He stepped forward and was about to step over the gravel in front of him to have a look, but his subordinates grabbed his sleeves.

"My lord, be careful of the danger, I will go first."

Wang He looked at him and nodded, then walked out after him.

There is a forest outside the cave, the grass grows and the warblers fly, and the spring is sultry, like a fairyland on earth.Wang He stepped forward and saw that the tree was indeed the same as he had just seen, with glass jars hanging on it.The colorful things inside are nothing but fruits.

"This tree is so strange, why does it have a pot." The pot is naturally connected to the branches of the tree, not tied to it by manpower.

"Yeah, the fruit is still in the jar. Where the hell is this?" The man stretched out his hand to touch it. At this moment, a scream came from the sky, piercing the sky in an instant, and piercing the eardrums.Everyone covered their ears, looked up, and saw a strange big bird hovering in the air.The body is like an eagle, the beak is like a gnat, the tail is that of a sparrow, and there is a cockscomb on its head.

Everyone hurriedly surrounded Wang He, and raised their sharp knives alertly and fearfully.But this strange bird didn't intend to attack at all. Seeing them leaving the big tree, they stopped making unpleasant calls and just hovered in the sky, everyone gradually let go of their vigilance.

"This bird may be guarding the forest." Wang He guessed.

"Where the hell is this?"

This strange bird, and this strange tree, don't seem like a place for people to stay at all.Whether they are still alive, is this hell or the world.

No one answered him, and everyone was as puzzled as he was.

Looking at the anxious crowd, Wang He said in a timely manner: "Don't worry, everyone, let's take a look around and see if we can find any traces of people around here."

This forest is not big, there is nothing but trees.Moreover, the fruits on each tree are different. Near the entrance of the hole is a glass jar containing the fruit, with a long handkerchief behind it, as well as food and water, all of which are placed in the container and hung on the tree.

Wang He found that as long as they didn't touch something in the tree, the bird would not make warning calls.

Returning to the original point again, Wang He felt very tired and his hunger was getting bigger and bigger.He looked at the things on the tree, they were all edible, but he couldn't get them because of the bird.

He was really hungry, so with a thought, he took a jade pendant from his body and shook it at Big Bird twice.The bird sang and flew straight towards him, scaring Wang He to run away with his head in his arms.But the strange bird didn't hurt him, it just took away the jade pendant that fell on the ground, and then flew south and gradually disappeared.

Wang He was overjoyed, and hurriedly stood up and began to pick food from the trees.When everyone saw his actions, they followed suit.After a while, the big bird flew back, and everyone stopped.

During the period when the strange bird left, they really picked a lot.From canned fruit to snacks, bread and drinks, and then found a hidden corner, a group of people gathered together and started gobbling.

Although Wang He was equally hungry, the habit he had developed all along allowed him to eat very slowly, allowing him to savor the delicacy.

What he held in his hand was a box of dim sum called Egg Yolk Crisp, which was golden in appearance and sprinkled with a little black sesame.The crust is layered, crispy and delicious.The filling inside is very soft, wrapped with a piece of salted egg yolk.Take a bite, the salty aroma of the egg yolk and the sweet and greasy milk aroma come from nowhere, the two very different flavors are well combined in this snack.

The salted egg yolk relieves the intoxicating softness of the milk flavor, and the milk flavor adds a different kind of mellowness to the salted egg yolk.

Good tea is naturally indispensable for eating cakes, and a sip of tea is the perfect match.Wang He happened to have a pot with iced black tea written on it.He had drank black tea before, but the ones he drank were freshly brewed by the servants, and this kind of iced tea was unheard of.Out of curiosity, he unscrewed the bottle cap, and saw that the color was dark and the fragrance was quiet.

Taking a sip, he immediately frowned.

Compared with the good tea leaves in his mansion, it is still a bit inferior. The tea fragrance is not mellow enough, but it is more sweet, as if honey has been added.There is also a very strange taste, which he cannot describe, because he has never tasted such a taste, it is very new.

It felt weird when it first entered the mouth, and it was a bit hard to swallow.After drinking a few more sips, I got used to it and felt very refreshing, a little sour, which neutralized the sweetness of honey very well, and it was even more icing on the cake when paired with desserts.

The other people ate with mouthfuls of flavor, and they didn't even bother to talk.During this period of time, the stomach filled with raw coconut finally ushered in the long-lost feeling of fullness.

"Bah, bah, what is this, why is it born?"

"What's going on?" Wang Hefa asked.

The man raised the bag of food in his hand, "This food is not delicious."

Wang He reached out and took it, and saw buckwheat noodles written on it. "This is noodles."

"Noodles?" Everyone said in unison, very surprised.

"Won't the noodles go bad in it? And why is it hard?"

Wang He shook his head and said he didn't know, so he turned the bag over and saw the instructions on the back.It turns out that you only need to boil it in water for a while to eat, and there are even detailed introductions to the production methods of several noodles.There are miscellaneous sauces, tomatoes and eggs, and they are very friendly with pictures. Wang He's stomach started to growl again.

"Let's try cooking a packet."

After speaking, let the subordinates take out the kettle they carry with them, light a fire and put it on the shelf.The mouth of the kettle is very narrow, and the noodles are stuffed in small handfuls.After cooking, he used the snack box as a bowl, folded two twigs as chopsticks, and tasted it.

Compared with Xia Guo's noodles, this taste is more delicate and chewy.

"My lord, I have this bibimbap sauce here." The subordinate held up a glass jar and read it word by word. He only knew half of the words on the bottle, and he read it ignorantly and guessing.

Wang He poured a little on the noodles, stirred them evenly, and his eyes brightened immediately after he took a bite.

There seems to be meat in the bibimbap sauce, as well as very finely chopped shiitake mushrooms, which makes people's teeth and cheeks fragrant.You can also taste the taste of soy beans and chili peppers. The combination of several flavors is better than any delicacy he has ever tasted.

The speed of his hands increased, and he began to disregard his image.Seeing that he ate deliciously, everyone unpacked the remaining few packets and poured them into the kettle, and ate them with bibimbap sauce just like him.
