My summons are weird

Lu Yu and Lulutis groped in the forest for two days.

During the two days, Lu Yu was lucky not to meet anyone.

He is very clear that some people can be honest and good people in a group, but in this deserted wilderness, whether they are human or ghost is only a matter of thought.

If they can't meet anyone, they naturally can't ask for directions. They can only go around in the cold spring mountains and forests, struggling to find places where there are people.

The moment they walked out of the woodland and saw the outline of the town in the distance, Lu Yu and Lulutis both heaved a sigh of relief.

The monsters and beasts in the early spring were particularly active, and they were restless after being suppressed all winter.

Walking in the woods, you can hear creepy beast roars and miserable screams from time to time.

Now, finally, I can relax a little bit.

Lu Yu, who was walking on the main road to the town, was very eye-catching.

Groups of adventurers nearby cast their gazes over. After all, Lu Yu's outfit matching and the fabric of the clothing are full of novelty.

They were looking at Lu Yu, and Lu Yu was also peeking at them from the corner of his eye.

It was similar to the costumes of knights and magicians that Lu Yu had seen before, with a strong medieval flavor.

Just from the clothes, Lu Yu can tell whether an adventurer team is strong or not.

At a glance, all you can see are adventurers carrying white wood identification plates.

As the lowest-level adventurers, the equipment they are equipped with is really shabby.

All in linen, the clothes were wrinkled, and even had some holes.

Although the weapons he carries are made of metal, they are basically rusty, and there is a high probability of a tetanus.

Either the weapon is full of battle scars, with a lot of gaps, and if you smash it in with a knife, you may not be able to pull it out and break the inside. It is a parting gift.

He couldn't see the adventurers of black iron and fine steel, and he didn't understand why so many white wood-level adventurers gathered around here.

Ignoring the group of people, Lu Yu entered the town despite the gazes of the surrounding pedestrians.

Lu Yu was surprised that this town near the wilderness had no city walls, and the patrolling guards didn't even check their identities, they just glanced at him and walked away.

so confident?

Lu Yu couldn't understand, and didn't bother to bother Lulutis.

"A new reward from the Adventurer's Guild is here~ Earl Nott is offering a reward for the whereabouts of the eldest son. Anyone who provides information will receive five silver coins, regardless of the level of the adventurer!"

"Weapons, practical weapons, how can you feel at ease without a sharp blade, from white wood to fine steel grade, there are all applicable weapons!"

"The armor that can withstand the full blow of the jungle slime, our store promises, if it can't stop it, you can return it!"

"The fresh venison I just hunted this morning has a large quantity and a good price. Buy it now and get a bowl of deer blood for free!"

"The mutton oil and black bread set only costs two copper coins a piece, which is big enough to fill you up! The spring fresh vegetable soup costs three copper coins a piece."

"Slime juice, who else wants to freshly squeeze slime juice?"

Lu Yu, who just learned the language of this world, stood there in a daze, listening to the words pouring into his mind from all directions, struggling to understand.

He wanted to complain to Lulutis about the freshly squeezed slime juice, but a pair of powerful hands grabbed Lu Yu's arm.

A burly and powerful man with a black face showed his yellow teeth to Lu Yu, and the stench that hit his face made him sick to his stomach.

The dazed Lu Yu didn't realize that he was standing in front of the venison stall just now, which directly led to a misunderstanding.

"Do you want venison? It's very fresh."

The big man selling venison was extremely enthusiastic, but Lu Yu just wanted to stay away from him.

"No, no." With that said, Lu Yu quickly broke free.

"How about this, originally deer blood is not only for sale, I see that you are so thin, I make an exception and only sell it to you, as long as..."

The venison boss thought for a while and said, "Twenty copper coins are enough."

Lu Yu, who still doesn't know the price and the conversion ratio of copper coins and silver coins, glanced at the smiling face of the venison boss, turned his head and left without thinking.

"Hey, don't go, eighteen copper coins are also fine."

"How about sixteen?"

"At least fifteen coins, I have nothing to earn!"

"You're so well dressed, why don't you even want to pay this copper coin?"

Lulutis, who had been observing the outside through the small hole in the backpack, asked curiously: "How do you know that twenty copper coins are not worth it?"

Lu Yu was a little helpless when he heard this question.

Lulutis is indeed the kind of person who will be super doubled when she goes out to buy groceries.

"I've never seen a businessman who says he's losing money actually loses money."

In view of the fact that he will temporarily settle in this place called the Kingdom of Yas for a period of time in the future, Lu Yu must have a certain understanding of prices.

Dealing with all kinds of people from all walks of life, if you can't handle the details of money, you will only suffer a lot of boring losses.

Lu Yu walked around the street and observed the stalls selling black bread with suet for a long time. He spent two copper coins to eat a black bread with suet set meal.

This set meal is actually four or five slices of black bread, coated with a large piece of suet, placed on the stove for a while, and served with half a slice of unknown fruit.

It is very throat-piercing, and there is an obvious grainy feeling when swallowing.

It seems that because it has not melted completely, the sheep oil tastes very fishy and greasy.

The people who bought suet black bread just now ate it with great relish... This made Lu Yu deeply worried about the future food.

After observing the transactions on the street for a while, Lu Yu went straight to the shops selling grain.

An adventurer wearing metal armor and a stainless steel identification tag happened to walk out the door with two small bags full of food.

Lu Yu glanced at it, and took out the mineral water bottle from his backpack. He vaguely remembered that the bottle was filled with water, with a net content of about 500 grams.

The owner of the grain store had sharp eyes, and he couldn't tell what Lu Yu's white shirt and light gray jeans were. He subconsciously thought that they were the novelty-seeking nobles in the capital, and hurried out from behind the cabinet.

However, when he stepped out and took a closer look, Lu Yu's figure was a bit thin, his whole body was dusty, and his clothes were covered with dust.

This embarrassment made him a little uncertain again.

Lu Yu naturally saw the change in the expression of the grain store owner in just a few seconds.

Looking at the dishes, he has seen a lot.

Lu Yu handed the mineral water bottle filled with water to the owner of the grain store: "I want white rice with the same weight as this bottle."

The owner of the grain store put on the monocle hanging around his neck, looked at the plastic bottle in his hand in confusion, and at the same time squeezed it vigorously without leaving a trace.

No material, neither glass nor gel...something in between.

What is this?

He had seen quite a few rough people who came to buy rations but didn't mention their work units. These people either carried a pot or an earthen jar, but this was the first time they had seen such a strange bottle.

Moreover, Lu Yu's accent was a bit blunt, mechanical, and very weird.

He didn't know how to ask, so he didn't ask any more questions, but subconsciously glanced at Lu Yu's shoes.

Because of the long journey, Lu Yu's sports shoes were covered with a thick layer of yellow mud, which was ugly.

Through the exposed part, the owner of the grain store has a judgment.

He led Lu Yu to the warehouse of the grain store, commanded a servant to fetch a bag of rice, and put it on a scale in front of Lu Yu to weigh it.

After confirmation by Lulutis, the unit displayed on the balance is different from what she knows.

Lu Yu's most troublesome thing still happened.

There is no unified unit of measurement in most parts of this vast world, and there is a high probability that there is a standard for each place.

The reason why he brought in the mineral water bottle to weigh it was not only to confirm the unit, so that he could convert it in the way he was used to, but also to confirm the price.

When the two sides of the scale were balanced, the owner of the grain shop stared at Ji Zhong in a daze for a while.

"It turns out that the customer wanted a 'food' amount."

Lulutis suddenly said: "I know about it, I will explain it to you later."

Lu Yu asked, "How much?"

"Five copper coins."

Lu Yu touched a handful of rice from the balance, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it.

No rice fragrance, even with a stale smell.

The rice grains are rough and not plump, with no luster.

Proper old rice, bad rice, is even worse than the rice that Lu Yu used to eat in the university cafeteria.

There is a basic price reference for this area.

Lu Yu took out the rice Liang seized from the dead eldest son of the earl and gave it to the owner of the grain store.

"I don't want this kind of old rice anymore. Tell me, what is the price of this quality in my hand."

The owner of the grain store looked at the rice in the rice bag in a daze for a while: "The quality of this kind of rice is considered to be above-average, about 20 copper coins. Generally, only nobles and wealthy businessmen can afford it."

Lu Yu didn't follow what he said, and continued to ask.

"Is there more expensive rice?"

"Of course there are, but small shops don't sell them. Excellent quality rice and flour can only be found near the capital."

"After all, people who can eat this kind of food are no longer rich or expensive. It's as simple as a rich family."

In this way, the rice grains that ordinary people can eat are slightly better, and the rice grains that are not old rice are about ten copper coins?

The owner of the grain store let go of his contempt for Lu Yu, and asked seriously: "The customers are not here to buy rice."

Lu Yu took ten copper coins out of his pocket.

"I also want to know something about the price from you, are you free?"

The owner of the grain store chuckled: "Travelers from afar who want to know about a region should go to the tavern. There are all kinds of people and a wealth of information channels. Why did you come to me?"

Lu Yu smiled without saying a word.

The boss did not refuse and accepted the copper coins.

Half an hour later, Lu Yu walked out of the grain store, and he had a basic understanding of the prices and base currency of the Kingdom of Yas in his mind.

But it's just cognition... He who is used to banknotes and electronic payments can't deal with such a messy exchange system all of a sudden.

Copper and silver coins are the most circulated currency on this continent, so everyone likes to use it as the base currency.

The transaction of metal currency is accompanied by consumption and wear, and there is still a problem of casting ratio at the beginning of casting.

Copper coins are not the smallest unit of currency. The reason why the consumption here is mixed is that the merchants see through that adventurers who come here will not carry a bunch of fragmented coins, so they round up.

It is close to the wilderness and woodland where monsters and beasts infested, and people after adventure will spend wildly in order to obtain short-term comfort.

A group of blood-licking people at this time mostly don't care about the odds and ends of coins, they only feel that life is short and they should enjoy themselves in time.

That is to say, after Lu Yu went to the bustling capital city, he would face constant conversion of currency units when purchasing small commodities.

And some unit conversions are very painful...not integers.

Lulutis asked, "Do you need me to explain the unit 'one food'?"

Lu Yu covered his forehead, drooped his face, and said weakly: "I don't need it for now, let me take care of it, I need to take care of it..."

No, this won't work.

In order not to be slaughtered as a pig, he must spend some time figuring out the basic currency system of a region, and he needs to constantly face the problem of changing one by one in his daily life.

There are too many things he needs to do now, awaken a magician, try to become a summoner, follow Lulutis to continue to learn some common sense of this world, and assist Lulutis in trying to lift part of the seal...

It is impossible for Lu Yu to spend his time on this aspect when he came up, because he couldn't figure out the order!

In Lu Yu's mind, a thought gradually appeared.

When you are not very professional and you may not be able to specialize in a certain thing for a short time...

"Lulutis, I'm going to find a servant."

"Lu Yu, you might as well contract a servant."

"Um?"

"Um?"
