I opened a mall in ancient times

Luo Chaochao opened his eyes, and what he saw was a dilapidated house interior.

[You are now in Sheng Kingdom and Qing Kingdom, as well as the fortress city of Beidi: Kangzhou City.

Now that the war has just ended, a lot of waste is waiting to be done, and the business of Kangzhou City is prosperous, and many merchants are trading again.

Your parents died in the war, leaving you only a house and a shop with a half-month lease, but you don't have the talent for business, and within three months of running the business, you lost all your savings and paid off your debts. Neighbor Uncle Chen's rent for two months, and in half a month, you will be living on the street. 】

A slightly stiff AI anthropomorphic voice rang in Luo Chaochao's ear, explaining the current situation to Luo Chaochao, which was also the background of this world.

The system had already told him when he bound the system before, but Luo Chaochao was very moved when he really came to a strange world.

He died suddenly at home because of too much work intensity. When he was about to reincarnate, the system came to him and gave him a chance to let Luo Chaochao start again.

In order to facilitate Luo Chaochao's understanding, the system directly changed its operating mode to a game Luo Chaochao is most familiar with.

——"Ancient Grocery Store"

The game "Ancient Grocery Store" is an infrastructure management game that has received rave reviews in the past two years. As a fan of infrastructure management games, Luo Chaochao naturally started playing this game on the first day of the server opening.

The background of this game is grand, and there are many settings and systems, but it will not make people dizzy. Luo Chaochao likes this game very much.

Not only the full level, but he also achieved the achievements of all missions, all achievements, and all collections, successfully triggering the hidden system of the game.

Of course, there is another important trigger condition, that is, the death of Luo Chaochao.

The system said so, but Luo Chaochao actually didn't care much about the details. For him, this was equivalent to another life, and he was not at a loss.

What's more, the money you earn can be spent by yourself, and you can also experience the style that other people can't understand, isn't it great?

The only thing that gave Luo Chaoxi a headache was the background of his current identity.

The current store he owns does not belong to him, but he rents it. Now he owes half a year's rent, and in half a month, he will be kicked out.

This is not the same as the setting in the game.

But it's normal, after all, this is not a game world, so it's a novice task.

Luo Chaochao habitually looked at the round button floating on the left side of his sight from just now, with the words [Main Menu] on it.

Click on Luo Chao, the upper left corner is the character information.

【Name: Luo Chao

Race: human

Bloodline:? ? ?

Age: 16

Level: 0 [Normal]

Experience Points: 0/10

Coins: 0

Product: none

Store: None]

start from scratch?Not surprisingly.

But this race... what's the situation?

"Ancient Grocery Store" does not seem to have this setting.

[The system knowledge is based on the settings of this game, but it does not mean that all settings are based on the game. 】The system explained,【Everything in your backpack is there, but for balance, the things in your backpack will be frozen, and will be unblocked as the system upgrades. 】

Luo Chaochao opened his backpack and saw that it was indeed the case.

All the things I have struggled for so many years are in it, but most of them are locked gray and usable, most of them are clothes pendants and other things that can only be used for decoration and have no specific function.

And these things cannot be put on the shelves, they can only be given away.

In the bottom row, there are several modules such as [Store], [Achievements], and [Warehouse]. On the upper right of the screen is a [Daily Sign-in] that is shining with golden light.

There will be experience rewards and copper coin rewards for daily sign-in, Luo Chaochao clicked sign-in smoothly.

[System: Congratulations on your successful first sign-in, you have obtained 10 experience points, [copper coins] × 100]

[System: Congratulations to the player for successfully upgrading, you have reached lv.1 [hawker]. 】

[System: Congratulations on unlocking the mall, the second level item has been unlocked. 】

[System: Congratulations on getting the [Newbie Gift Pack]×1, please click to use it! 】

Luo Chaochao opened the backpack, and as expected, in the dusty backpack, only the upper left corner was colored.

It is the novice gift package sent by the system.

[System: Congratulations to the player for obtaining [Instant Noodles x 10], [Sit Alone Lanzhou Novice Set x 1], [Famous Dishes x 1]]

Instant noodles?

"Why instant noodles?" Luo Chaochao was a little dumbfounded when he saw what was in the novice gift bag.

Instant noodles obviously shouldn't exist in this dynasty.

[You have traveled through time, why do you still care about instant noodles? 】The systematic explanation is impeccable.

Also, I have traveled through time and space, so what happened to selling instant noodles in ancient times?

Moreover, instant noodles are pasta, and it is not a bad thing to appear in ancient times in advance.

The way to upgrade the system is very rough.

Just spend money.

And the system can do many things, as long as you give enough money, the system is equivalent to an all-round housekeeper.

Of course, money is required.

Luo Chaochao took out the instant noodles provided by the system from his backpack.

This is a set of five packs of instant noodles in plastic packaging. There are a total of ten packs, which are fifty packs. One pack is 150 grams. The taste is the most delicious braised beef. Luo Chaochao actually likes this taste. When I stay up late and work overtime, I will eat a portion to refresh myself, but I will not eat it when I am in the company, because the smell will waft everywhere, and my colleagues will have opinions.

"System, can the packaging of this instant noodle be changed?"

[It can be purchased in the mall. 】

Luo Chaochao opened the mall and saw that there was indeed an option to change the packaging.

[Package replacement, 10 texts * 100 times [the number of times that can be stored]]

Luo Chaoxi only had one hundred cash all over his body, and it would cost one-tenth of the money to repackage the instant noodles.

There are a lot of gold and silver in the game in his backpack, but they are locked and cannot be used at all.

[When can I use my money? 】

[Unlocked as the level increases. 】

And the upgrade of the level... also requires money.

Luo Chaochao gritted his teeth and changed it. After all, he couldn't explain what plastic was, and he couldn't explain the strange words on the packaging and the printed promotional pictures. Taking it out rashly would easily attract the attention of others.

In the system mall, besides this kind of black technology, there are also many goods that can be purchased.

Buying goods in the system requires capital, the goods are very complete, and food is cheaper than the market, but some items that require certain skills and exceed the current technological level of the plane are sky-high prices.

In addition to buying from the mall, Luo Chaochao also saw another option.

[What does this purchase from other branches mean? 】

[The host can open branches in other planes and purchase from another plane. 】

Luo Chaochao's heart skipped a beat.

【Can I go back to my world? 】

[It will be opened after the third level, but it will cost a certain amount of points for each teleportation. 】

[Points? 】

[1 point = 1 tael of silver = 1000 Huaguo coins, and the conversion ratio of the rest of the planes needs to be calculated after opening. 】

It doesn't matter if you die, no one cares about yourself, but if there is a chance to go back, Luo Chaochao will not let it go.

Who would make it difficult for themselves after getting used to the convenience of modern life?

Luo Chaochao glanced at his experience bar.

In addition to the ten points of experience given when I signed in, I was promoted to a level, and the experience bar from the first level to the second level has a total of 10000. If converted into copper coins, it is 1 Wen, which is converted into ten taels of silver, which is [-] yuan. Chinese currency.

Ten taels of silver was like a huge sum of money to Luo Chaochao who only had a hundred copper plates all over his body.

After clicking to buy, the package of instant noodles in Luo Chaoxi’s hand turned into a stack of palm-wide bamboo tubes, with a plug made of the same bamboo on it, covering them very close, but there is a bulge on the side, which can be removed with a little force. Open the lid, and on the lid of the bamboo tube, there are a few words engraved in cursive script.

【Nine o'clock water】

Jiudianshui is the name Luo Chaochao gave his store in the game, which originated from his own name.

I heard from my parents that he was short of water in the five elements, so he took the name Chao Chao. When he was in school, he was often joked that he lacked water in his life. Later, Luo Chao Chao himself liked to play tricks, and he used the name Jiudianshui when he opened his store.

Luo Chaochao opened the lid and saw that inside was a piece of bread and a seasoning packet wrapped in oil paper, while the sauce was stuffed in a watertight bag like a corn leaf to ensure that it would not melt and seep into the oil paper due to the heat , The dried vegetable package is the same as the sauce package, and they all use the same packaging.

Isn't this just instant noodles in buckets?

A total of fifty boxes of instant noodles were neatly placed on the table in front of him, and it looked a bit like a work of art. He just glanced at it, and the price of this kind of package of instant noodles in the system was ten yuan, that is to say, one The price of a package of instant noodles in bulk is two liters.

Originally, the unit price was based on point points, but Luo Chaochao felt a headache seeing the decimals starting with 0 in front, so he simply asked the system to replace it with the current copper coins, which will be automatically converted when the deduction is made.

And Luo Chaochao needs to count the money and profit for changing the packaging, probably a piece of bread is less than three pennies.

Luo Chaoxi glanced at the dilapidated door that he had closed, and then touched the little copper coins left in his pocket, feeling a little pained.

Forget it, let's have a meal first.

Luo Chaoxi came back from the dead, went to ponder the system, and finally worried about the packaging, his stomach was already empty, and the only thing he can eat now is instant noodles.

Difficult.

Luo Chaochao opened the door to let in the sunlight from outside, only then did Luo Chaochao see the complete layout of the store.

What you see in the game is what you see in the game. Personal experience is different after all.

The storefront is about [-] square meters in size. On the right side of the door is a place similar to the cashier counter. On the left side of the wall and next to the cashier counter are shelves. At this time, the shelves are empty, and there is an open space and a few tables and chairs in the middle. But all the tables, chairs and furniture are very old. It looks like it has been used for many years. The windows and doors are not closed tightly, and there are big seams. In early autumn, it was not too cold, and it was barely bearable.

Luo Chaochao searched in the store, but failed to find hot water, but he found a daily item called [Zhuoshuiquan] in his backpack.

The hot water used to make tea is just right for making noodles at this time.

Luo Chaochao just opened the door, sat on the table closest to the door with the instant noodles he opened at the beginning, poured hot water, and waited for 5 minutes.

He lifted the lid of the stewed instant noodles, and suddenly, a smell of braised beef wafted out of the store, and quickly wafted into the noses of customers in several nearby stores.

"It's naan bread with barbecue again." In the shop next door, a group of people couldn't help complaining when they saw the food being served, "Every time I go to Beidi, I eat meat every day. Every day I eat meat. Every time I go to the hut, I eat meat." uncomfortable."

"Isn't there only a few kinds of dry food that have been released?" Someone comforted him, "It's really impossible, let's bring more vegetables when we leave this time."

"But don't you still have to eat meat when you arrive in Beidi?"

In a shop next door, a caravan is making preparations for departure.

Now that the war has just ended, their caravans will take advantage of these opportunities to do business in two other places.

The danger is dangerous, but the benefits are huge, and a trip back and forth can last for three years.

But there are also problems.

It’s better to go to the Western Regions, and you can eat more, but it’s different to go to Beidi, where birds don’t shit, and they have to go through the Gobi Desert, and they can’t bring too many things that are inconvenient to store for a long time, and they go back and forth every time. I can only eat that little thing, I have eaten enough for a long time, but I can't help it.

Kangzhou City was the last city they could supply, but there were actually only a few supplies they could supply.

dry biscuits and water.

At this time, a refreshing smell sneaked into the noses of several people.

This lifted the spirits of the caravan people who had been driving for several days.

This smell is very strange, they have never smelled it before, but it is inexplicably stimulating and appetizing. Several people even swallowed their saliva. Following the smell, he walked to the door of the inconspicuous small shop next to him.

But at the door of the store, the smell is even stronger.

right here!
