Kim Haru nodded in agreement.
Just as he was preparing to weigh the cabbage for the customer, he suddenly realized he hadn't prepared any weighing tools.
What to do now?
As Kim Haru wrestled with whether to sell an entire cabbage at once, Hwa Jian noticed his hesitation and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
Kim Haru pointed at the cabbage, saying, "No scale."
"Just a moment! I'll go find one for you!" Before he finished speaking, Hwa Jian was already running off.
He didn't even collect the pile of crystal cores on the ground.
Kim Haru: "…"
Is this what people are like in the apocalypse?
Kim Haru took advantage of this moment to take out more items from his backpack to sell.
The cabbages were all large, and just taking out four of them already occupied most of the space on the stand. Kim Haru decided to only display four, leaving the rest in his backpack.
The soybeans, being small and loose, posed a different problem. Without a bag or container, Kim Haru was reluctant to take them out, worried that they'd roll all over the place on his stand. For someone with a mild case of OCD, the sight of scattered soybeans would have been too much to bear.
After thinking for a moment, Kim Haru decided to take out just a handful and stuff them into his pocket. That way, if someone asked about them, he could take them out to show, without worrying about them rolling around everywhere.
The potatoes, however, were much easier to handle.
Kim Haru placed a neat pile of potatoes on one side of the stand, opposite the cabbages. He even took the time to arrange the potatoes in order, from largest to smallest.
Looking at the stand now, he felt much more at ease.
With his goods displayed, Kim Haru's attention shifted to the pile of crystal cores beside him.
He let out a sigh, eventually deciding to help gather them up.
At this point, there were no strangers around, so without the discomfort of social interaction weighing on him, Kim Haru quickly noticed that something felt off.
Perhaps in this apocalypse, the items Kim Haru was selling weren't as ordinary as he had initially thought.
Reflecting on the behavior of Shin Woncheon and his group over the past few days, and now this latest customer's reaction, one thing became crystal clear!
Before Kim Haru could decide whether to continue selling his goods at the system's set prices or raise them a bit, Hwa Jian returned, carrying a scale.
As he approached Kim Haru, Hwa Jian's steps faltered.
He was shocked by the sudden abundance of vegetables that had appeared!
It wasn't just the quantity that had increased dramatically! Every cabbage and potato was of the same high quality as the ones he had just seen! The entire pile consisted of Class B, if not Class A, ingredients! My god, who exactly was this person selling vegetables?!
Hwa Jian handed the scale to Kim Haru, saying, "...Here's the scale you asked for."
