Chapter 62 - Feeding Frenzy

But what if the vegetables were real? At such a low price, it would be too stupid to not buy it.

Under the pressure of the crowd, the buyer chewed the vegetable carefully and swallowed the leaf with a gulp.

He didn't say anything because he was too flustered to speak. He just squatted down, while pressing his hand firmly on a large cabbage leaf.

At the same time, he use the other hand to dig the crystal cores out of his pocket. It was a chaotic struggle as he tried to do everything at once.

Despite the rush, he didn't take his eyes off Kim Haru, he quickly said, "This one! I'll buy the whole cabbage! I have money, please sell it to me!"

Kim Haru picked up the cabbage and weighed it for him.

The onlookers stared at each other in confusion.

For a moment, no one quite understood what had just happened.

Then, someone reacted swiftly, lunging toward another cabbage on Kim Haru's stall, shouting as they dove, "This one is mine! I'm buying the whole thing!"

In an instant, the crowd caught on!

These vegetables must be the real deal, not some fake product!

What were they waiting for? They had to act fast!

"I want one! I want to buy a cabbage too! Boss, save one for me!"

"This potato is mine! No one better try to take it!"

"You b*stard, how many times have I helped you out as your neighbor? Can't you let me have this potato, just this once?"

"Who the hell pushed me out of the way?! I had my hands on that potato first!"

"Boss only accepts crystal cores! If you don't have any, stop shoving and wasting people's time!"

"Does anyone have extra crystal cores? I want to trade my points for crystal cores on the spot! Twenty points for one crystal core, any type of crystal core doesn't matter!"

"I'm offering twenty-one points per crystal core! Trade with me, please! I'm only short two crystal cores!"

"Stop pushing! You stepped on my foot!"

In no time, the stall turned into a scene of complete chaos.

Kim Haru's vegetables sold out rapidly. The four large cabbages and sixty pounds of potatoes were snatched up completely. Even the fallen cabbage roots were fought over until nothing remained.

Witnessing this, Kim Haru fully realized just how rare and coveted the food he thought was normal had become in this world.

After counting, he had collected a total of 1,200 crystal cores. He silently thanked the system backpack for this since it helped him store everything without a problem.

Other people who watched this scene began to notice this, and the words space-type ability users flashed in their minds.

"Boss, do you have more vegetables? If you do, bring them out and sell them already. There are still so many of us who haven't bought anything." They were speculating that if Kim Haru had space storage, it might mean there were more vegetables beyond what they could see.
