Chapter 57 New Advertisement

It was already late September, the summer heat gradually began to subside, and the breeze blowing in the air even began to be mixed with a hint of coolness.

On the trees beside the road, the original dark green leaves also began to hang with a hint of bright yellow, which was blown by the wind, and occasionally a piece or two fell down.

However, in such a cool autumn weather, Freeman was still sweating profusely, soaking all the shorts he was wearing, and it was very uncomfortable to lie on his body sticky.

This is also impossible. Anyone who drags more than 200 catties of wheat to Bunta City from Ireland and catches up with the road for nearly 30 kilometers in a row will sweat profusely.

In fact, he didn't need to make himself so hard, because from the day of the autumn harvest, the McGrady Chamber of Commerce in Bangta City, which specializes in grain business, has sent people to the village to buy it. The vast majority of farmers in the village harvest almost all the wheat. All sold to them.

In the past few years, Freeman did the same, but this year he chose to transport the harvested wheat to Bangta City to sell.

The reason is very simple. This year, he suddenly found out that if you sell directly to a buyer in Irish Village, the price per pound is 34 copper coins lower than that in Bangta City.

If the more than 200 catties of wheat were counted, it would be almost seven or eighty silver coins less.

Perhaps for the nobles in Bangta City, seven or eighty silver coins were simply dropped to the ground and they were too lazy to take a look. Even most of the villagers in the Irish Village would not care too much, so they almost They all chose to sell the wheat directly to the Tracy Chamber of Commerce in the village.

However, for a poor family like Fehrman, who has three children to feed, seventy or eighty silver coins are a sum of money that cannot be ignored.

The other villagers felt that it was too hard, but Fehrman insisted that he dragged the wheat to Bangta City, just to be able to sell seven or eighty more silver coins.

A cool wind suddenly blew, making Fehrman feel much cooler instantly.

He temporarily put the handlebars down, picked up a towel and wiped off his sweat, ready to rest.

Anyway, the city wall of Bangta City is already in sight, and there is still some time before noon at this time, but there is no need to worry too much.

After raising his head to wipe off the sweat on his face, Fehrman's eyes fell unconsciously to the distant Bangta City, but he suddenly let out a sigh.

Outside the four walls of Bangta City, there has always been a tall giant sign, which is not only familiar to the residents of Bangta City, but also to ordinary farmers in villages outside the city such as Fehrman. Chu, every time he came to Bangta City for something, Fehrman couldn't help but look at the sign more.

Not for anything else, but to see more of the beautiful and noble girl above.

But this time, when Fehrman habitually looked at the sign again, he found that the pattern on the sign had changed.

On the previous sign, in addition to the beautiful girl, there was also the pattern of the new fly brand magic fan.

When he first saw the picture on the sign, Fehrman was already fascinated.

In addition to remembering the beautiful girl, he also remembered this Xinfeipai magic fan, and secretly made up his mind that as long as the family is a little richer in the future, he must buy a Xinfeipai magic fan to bring back. Let the three children in the family enjoy this cool breeze on a hot summer day.

However, on the huge picture on the huge sign, the beautiful girl Fellman was familiar with was still there, but besides her, there were two other girls who were equally young.

Although these two girls are not as beautiful as that girl, they are equally beautiful, and one is lively and bright, the other is quiet and beautiful, and they give people different feelings.

In the picture, three girls are gathered around a table. Judging from the dishes on the table, they should be preparing to eat.

However, in the middle of the table, there was a strange cylindrical iron vessel. Among them, the girl with a lively expression and a round face was holding a spoon in one hand. She dug a spoon out of this strange iron vessel and was still smelling. of rice.

"What is this?" Freeman looked at the picture in confusion, thought about it, and guessed something. "The previous picture was an advertisement for Xinfei brand magic fans, so this picture should also be an advertisement? But what is this strange thing? Why is there still cooked rice in it?"

In addition to pictures, there were two lines of words on the sign, but unfortunately Freeman did not recognize the words. Finally, driven by curiosity, he pulled a middle-aged man who seemed to be passing by and asked.

"What's written on it?" The middle-aged man glanced in the direction Freeman pointed, and laughed. "Oh, that. Let me tell you, that's the new billboard that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce put on two days ago. It was made for their new product, the Magic Rice Cooker."

"Magic rice cooker? Is that the round thing on it? What is it for?" Freeman was even more curious.

"Can't you understand this? Look, isn't there rice in there? That's why this magic rice cooker can be used to cook rice." The middle-aged man pointed to the sign and read it word by word. up. "There are two rows of words above, the first row is 'Xinfei brand magic rice cooker, allowing you to enjoy the purest rice'. The row below is 'Healthy life, stay away from firewood'. Do you understand?"

Freeman shook his head honestly: "I don't understand."

The middle-aged man couldn't help rolling his eyes: "What's not clear about this? If you use this magic rice cooker, you don't need to use firewood to ignite the rice, you can cook the rice directly, which is not only faster than using firewood, but also faster. No cigarettes. How is it? Is it convenient?"

"No firewood? How can it be cooked?" Freeman said in surprise.

The middle-aged man laughed: "It looks like you still don't understand. But forget it, there's nothing to show you here, and you won't understand even if I say it. If you're really curious, go buy one and try it yourself. I know. Let me tell you, I bought one for the first time, and now my wife is much easier to cook every day."

Seeing the middle-aged man leave with a big smile, Freeman shook his head helplessly, thinking that although this magic rice cooker is a good thing, he can't afford it, and it's useless no matter how good it is.

After talking on the side of the road for a while, Freeman felt that he had regained some strength, so he flushed and pulled up the scooter, and continued to drag the full cart of wheat toward the city of Bonta.

Half an hour later, Freeman came to the McGrady Chamber of Commerce, easily followed the flow of people to find a place to buy wheat, and then sold it, and finally started with two gold coins, thirty-seven silver coins, and seventy-six copper coins.

With this hard-earned income, Freeman glanced at the restaurant next to the Tracy McGrady Chamber of Commerce, swallowed hard, took out the biscuits prepared by his wife in the morning from the cloth bag he had been carrying for a long time in his arms, and was ready to go. Solve your own lunch with the cold boiled water provided by the McGrady Chamber of Commerce for free.

Just after taking a sip of water, when I was about to take a bite of the sesame cake, I suddenly heard a conversation between two people hurriedly passing by the road.

"Hey, have you participated in the Big Eater Competition of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce?"

"I participated, but unfortunately I just ate three bowls and couldn't hold on anymore. Sigh—"

"Only three bowls? Are you too bad? I ate five bowls!"

"Che, what about five bowls, when I went, the guy who won the championship ate a full nine bowls! He ate all the rice in the three magic rice cookers by himself!"

"So powerful? Isn't this guy a pig?"

"Then how do I know..."

...

Freeman's ears moved, the big stomach king game? What is this?

The curious Freeman asked a guy in the Chamber of Commerce to inquire about it, and only then did he know what the Big Eater competition was, a competition that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce had been holding since this morning.

There are no restrictions on people to participate in this competition, no matter who they are, they can participate as long as they want.

In the competition, all participants can eat the rice provided by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce at will, and the one who eats the most will win.

The competition that lasts for a whole day will finally decide a winner. This winner will not only receive a magic rice cooker as a reward, but also receive a special membership card provided by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. Items will receive certain discounts.

Freeman didn't care much about the final reward, he cared about the fact that he could eat rice for free.

Looking down at the shriveled biscuits in his hand, Freeman thought for a while, then decisively repackaged the biscuits and stuffed them into his arms. Then, he inquired about the direction of the competition held by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce from his buddies, and strode away.
