Once inside, the people with him, including Shin Woncheon, had plenty of things to take care of. They needed to hurry up to gather enough crystal cores, fearing that if they were too late, the top-tier vegetables in Kim Haru's hands would be sold out! After pointing Kim Haru in the direction of the nearest vegetable market, they hurried off.
After they had gone some distance, Shin Woncheon slapped his forehead in frustration, realizing something. "Ah! We forgot to ask how much Mr. Kim plans to charge for his vegetables! How many crystal cores should we bring?"
"Do we even need to ask?" one of them replied. "You've tasted Mr. Kim's vegetables before, right? It was completely free from mutagenic virus content. No matter what price he sets, people will still scramble to buy them. The price will definitely be high. We might need all our crystal cores, and even then, it might not be enough!"
A few people thought about it and agreed.
Once they considered that Mr. Kim's stall might already be crowded with people, their footsteps quickened even more.
Following the directions, Kim Haru arrived at the Eastern District vegetable market. He looked at the tightly packed stalls lining both sides of the road, along with the throngs of people. The loud shouts and bargaining all drilled into his ears, causing him to feel a bit overwhelmed.
There are so many people! Is he really going to sell vegetables in such a crowded place? Does he have to learn how to shout too? And bargain with others?
Oh my! This is terrifying!
In the end, Kim Haru couldn't overcome his fear of crowds. The prime locations with heavy foot traffic had already been taken by early vendors. He decided to walk down a side street with fewer people and found a clean spot to set up. He took out the prepared cloth for his stall and laid it on the ground.
Just as he turned his back to the crowd and reached into his system backpack to pull out a large cabbage, he suddenly heard someone speaking to him from behind.
He was nearly startled!
Kim Haru didn't drop the cabbage; instead, he turned around to look.
It was a tall, thin young man, wearing clothes that had faded and pants that were slightly short, giving him a rather frail appearance.
The young man kindly reminded him, and Kim Haru nodded, indicating he had heard.
After that, he turned back around, still holding the cabbage, showing no signs of wanting to change locations.
Kim Haru thought the young man would leave soon since he was obviously being ignored. However, to his surprise, the young man didn't leave but instead asked him how much he was selling the cabbage for.
"How much… is this vegetable of yours?" Hwa Jian bit his lip, unable to resist asking.
This cabbage looked absolutely splendid and smelled incredibly enticing; it emitted a fresh fragrance, completely devoid of the sour, bitter, salty, or strange odors typical of mutated plants!
