Chapter 28 Rich People



After sending the lackeys away with the sunflower oil, Alex entered the interdimensional farm.

Seeing the ripe and ready-to-harvest spices, he let out a laugh.

\'This is great! I now have 1000 pieces of all the spices I need. Now I can make some room for random vegetables to be grown. Cucumber and cabbage would be great for salad. Eating spicy fried chicken will leave behind a greasy feeling. Having some green vegetables along with it would wash away that feeling effortlessly.\' Alex decided to farm vegetables.

The interdimensional farm was a big help for Alex. Due to how it worked, it promoted speed of growth over how large the farmable land was. So, instead of a long wait and a lot of quantity. He could quickly harvest the required vegetables although in less quantity. For Alex, this was the ideal case. He didn\'t need a large farm that could support a country. He just needs a farm that could support him.

A day on the farm was 24 mins. A meagre amount of time considering how many vegetables it can produce in that time.

The only reason he had to sell some vegetables to the farm shop was to get enough FP to buy new seeds. That was a worthwhile investment for Alex.

After harvesting and planting a new batch of crops, Alex emptied his inventory.

All the tools and random items he had were moved into the warehouse. And he quickly filled it with 100 pieces of ginger, lime, red chillies, black pepper, cardamom, cumin, turmeric, sweet potato, potato and cabbage.

The crops in his inventory were going to be used to get the initial investment for his fried chicken business.

But before he sold them, he had to find their market price and availability. Only with that can he make the most profit.

After exiting the farm, Alex walked through the streets before he reached a large three-story building. This building was comparatively different from the small stalls given to the stone head tribe and woodland tribe.

And only a few buildings like these existed in the whole open market area.

They were buildings owned by large merchant unions of the Blue Gem city. They procure products from all around the world to sell there. And they mostly dealt with luxury items.

And spices were luxury items.

These large merchant union shops were his competition.

Even though there are small stalls selling spices, their quality and quantity were low. So, the truly rich preferred buying spices from large businesses. And they bought it for a tremendous amount of money.

And for that exact reason, Alex wanted to tap into the pockets of the rich and make a lot of money.

Walking into the large shop, Alex looked around.

Most of the people on the ground floor were wearing proper clothes. Alex stood out among the crowd that entered the shop.

He was wearing relatively old clothes made out of fur and animal skin. It was a peculiar sight for those rich people to see an odd kid like Alex entering the shop.

At a glance, they could see that the kids had no money.

Why was he here? They thought.

Seeing the curious glances directed at him, Alex ignored them and went into the shop. The guards wanted to prevent the boy from entering. But when they were about to stop him, they suddenly stopped as if they heard something.

Alex, who didn\'t know it walked around curiously and reached the area where they were selling spices. There they had aisles of wooden containers storing spices of all kinds. Alex was relieved to know that all the spices he was carrying were being sold in the market.

Alex was afraid that the spices he was carrying might not be available in this world. If that were the case, it would have taken him a long time to popularise and sell the spices.

\'Thank god that was not the case.\'

Even though the kids from the woodland tribe were stupid enough to not differentiate a red chilly from a cherry tomato. That was not the case for large merchant unions.

Walking towards an aisle that sold garlic, Alex asked the shopkeeper nearby.

"How much does it cost?"

But the shopkeeper kept quiet. All his attention was directed somewhere else. He didn\'t even bother looking at Alex who was nearby.

"Hmm… Hello? Is anyone there?" Alex asked once again.

The shopkeeper kept quiet even then. Abruptly as if he realised something, he looked towards Alex and said.

"Kid, go away from here. Shoo… Shoo… Go away before…" Before he could complete his words a group of people entered the area where the spices were being sold.

The shopkeeper was a little agitated by the presence of the newcomers. Although Alex was treated like a piece of dirt on the road. The newcomers were quickly invited to ask what they needed.

\'Judging by their clothes and poise, they seem like important people. Most of them are wearing sky blue and white clothes. Too thin to be worn in winter. Are they not cold?\'

Besides their flimsy clothes, the other noticeable feature was their servile attitude towards the kids in the centre.

There was a kid, not older than thirteen walking around rapidly while the servants wearing sky-blue clothes followed.

\'My target! The rich human wallet that will buy my products in the future.\'

"Sister, let\'s buy the spices later. Before that, we should go to the Ice Pavilion. I heard that the chef there invented a new form of cuisine. It was said to be sweet and delicious. Can we go there first?" The kid chirped in a high-pitched voice. She was urging her older sister to go somewhere.

\'Ice Pavilion. Is that some kind of ice cream shop?\' Alex thought after hearing its name. He had not seen any ice cream shops in this world before. But it wouldn\'t be shocking to see one.

"No, We have to buy the spices on the list today. Or the grand elder will get angry. You know how she is when she is angry. She gave us this mission because she trusted us to complete it. We can\'t break her trust. Tomorrow, we can come again to visit the city." The older sister said.

Through the crowd of servants near them, Alex saw the older sister. She was elegant and beautiful like a water lily. She was wearing pristine white clothes and blue crystal earrings, all of which enhanced her beauty even more.

She was at most eighteen years old. But how she acted and talked showed her bearing as a person. She was humble and kind to the shopkeeper and servants around her, exuding a charm that quickly bound the people around her.

But Alex didn\'t care about any of that, he quickly resumed looking at the clove of garlic.

The clove of garlic was small, with a thickness of an inch and a half. Compared to garlic produced on Alex\'s farm, it was really small.

He crouched down to look even more closely, not realising that a group of people were looking at him weirdly.

The shopkeeper who noticed Alex crouching down quickly apologised to the other people before coming near him.

"Hey! Kid. Don\'t touch it. You would dirty it." He said in a hushed and harsh tone.

"Quickly go away before the guards throw you out. Can\'t you see that this place is not for people like you? Can you even afford it?" The shopkeeper said quietly after coming near Alex.

He was trying to kick out Alex and favour the rich people behind him. He talked in a hushed tone to not let the customers behind him hear their conversation.

Alex could easily see through the shallow shopkeeper. He decided that it would be better to avoid them. So, he slowly began to move away.

Conflict was not necessarily a good solution to the problem. There were better ways to tackle this dilemma than by arguing with the shopkeeper.

"Kukuku…Hey! What are you doing? I am an expert who can do full body enhancement. Even if you talk quietly, I can hear it."

"Are you sending that customer away just to please us? He may look like an eyesore. But how can you know for sure, if he is a hidden expert acting as a bum or a real bum? Don\'t send him away. We are okay with shopping with that guy." The thirteen-year-old brat among the group suddenly said with a twinkle in her eyes.

\'An eyesore? A bum?\' Two arrows pierced deep into Alex\'s heart.

\'I may look like this now. But I am pretty handsome just after a bath.\'

Alex who wanted to leave peacefully was stopped by the little brat.

\'Did I ask for help, brat? You read too many novels. How can you expect me to be a hidden expert.\' After screaming that in his mind. Alex looked at the brat. She raised her head while nodding.

She looked more like a chick pecking some peas than an honourable warrior who could do full body enhancement.

\'Does she want a pat for her good work? At first, I thought she was fooling around. But now that I look more closely, she really thinks that I am an expert. Sigh!\'
