Douluo ice demon Yuhao

At dusk, it is the time when miners in the mining area go home one after another after work.

There are almost no night shifts in the southeastern mining area. These mines are like the last bit of toothpaste left. They may be dug out in one day. The major mine owners are gradually no longer paying attention to the management of this place. If they can dig for one more day, that is

One more day's profit.

An adult miner worked hard for a day, dug out the ore and handed it over to the minions of the big mine owner. Although as immigrants, these miners sold their labor for a much lower price than the people of Mingdu. In addition, they had to pay a large sum of money.

commission, but it can still leave a considerable amount of income.

Soul guides are the foundation of the Sun and Moon Empire. As a link in the soul guide industry chain, the salary of miners is correspondingly higher than that of other civilian occupations, which is enough to attract immigrants from foreign countries.

Here it is.

This kind of income is not very attractive to the people of Mingdu. Most of them look down on this long-dilapidated mining area. The wages they can get for the same work in other large mining areas are higher than here. Over time, the main force of miners in the southeast mining area has become

immigrants from Xingluo and Tianhun.

Their relatives gathered around the mining areas, forming immigrant communities.

At this moment, at the intersection of one of the few wide streets and another small road in this residential area, a small barbecue stall was set up.

Huo Yuhao stood in front of a long grill, his hands on the grill slowly but rhythmically turning over the wooden skewers on the grill. On each wooden skewer was a processed, plump herring.

Each piece of herring is as big as a small arm, and the skin is covered with a layer of thick oily red sauce, giving it a dark brown color that is very appetizing.

The rich aroma is roasted by the charcoal fire and slowly drifts into the distance with the breeze.

Huo Yuhao was wearing sunglasses and grilling fish leisurely. Next to him was Tian Meng, who was staring at him with bright eyes. Huo Qiu'er and the Ice and Snow Emperor behaved very reservedly.

Huo Qiuer frowned and carefully observed his movements and techniques, with a puzzled look on his face.

Soon, the first batch of fish was grilled. Before Huo Yuhao opened his mouth, Tianmeng eagerly grabbed one and bit into it.

“Delicious! Today’s grilled fish has a different taste.”

The rich aroma burst out from the fish covered with thick sauce, and Tianmeng, a senior grilled fish critic, immediately noticed the difference.

"Today's grilled fish is obviously more fragrant than usual. Bingbing, Sister Xue'er, Xiaoba, you guys should try it too."

Bajiao was silent for a moment and declined: "I can't eat it."

After taking a bite, Ice Emperor nodded slightly: "It's really different. There are too many ingredients, so it's a bit salty, and the heat is stronger than usual."

Emperor Xue couldn't help but sigh: "Speaking of which, Yuhao hasn't baked anything himself for a long time."

This period of time seemed to be one thing after another. I don’t know when, but Huo Yuhao never had a peaceful time to barbecue in peace.

The rich fragrance also attracted Huo Qiu'er. She took one and took a bite, savoring it carefully, wanting to find out what secrets it contained.

Although she had accepted Huo Yuhao's memory and was no stranger to her craftsmanship, after spending so many days together, this seemed to be the first time she had tasted Huo Yuhao's freshly baked fish.

"What went wrong?" Huo Qiuer muttered to herself.

She has the same memory as the other party, but using the same steps, she cannot bake the same flavor as Huo Yuhao.

Ice Emperor elegantly held the grilled fish that he had just tasted, and asked: "Yuhao, has it been too long since you've grilled it, and the style has changed?"

"How is that possible? What do you think I am?"

Huo Yuhao didn't stop what he was doing and started the next round of grilled fish.

"Today's target customers are mainly middle-aged miners. After mining for a day, they will definitely want to eat something heavy with oil and salt. I am accurately targeting customers' pain points."

During the conversation, several figures walked towards Huo Yuhao's barbecue stall.

It was located at the intersection of the road, and with its attractive fragrance, it naturally attracted the attention of the residents.

However, these residents are not disgraced miners now, but women.

Huo Qiuer said leisurely: "Why do I think your target customers are all middle-aged and elderly women?"

A middle-aged woman holding a child came forward and asked in surprise: "Young man and little girl, you look very cool, where did you come from?"

She also has a very obvious Xingluo accent.

Huo Yuhao smiled and replied: "Mom, I heard that the income of the miners in the Sun and Moon Empire is good, so I came to the mining area to make a living."

He didn't have a very obvious accent originally, but now he has a hint of it deliberately.

"Are you from Xingluo too?" The women couldn't help but be happy when they heard this.

They couldn't see the fluctuations in Huo Yuhao's soul power, so they naturally regarded him as a member of the Star Luo immigrants.

A woman in her fifties was very enthusiastic and asked: "Young man, how did you come to the Sun and Moon Empire?"

Huo Yuhao answered naturally: "We were originally working in a small caravan. We felt that the treatment in Riyue was better than that in Xingluo, so we stayed in Mingdu. Madam, I think this place is full of Xingluo and Tianhun.

Man, how come there are so many Star Luo people?"

he asked curiously.

The arrival of strangers aroused the desire for communication among these middle-aged and elderly women. They didn't care about barbecue, so they started chatting away.

The woman in her fifties shook her head and sighed: "In recent years, most people like you have taken the initiative to make a living. Mining here in Mingdu, some hard-working men can dig up a gold mine in a day.

Soul Coin."

"But there are also many people like me who have to stay here because of the war between the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire."

This reason was somewhat beyond Huo Yuhao's expectations. He was stunned for a moment and quickly asked: "Mom, can you elaborate?"

The middle-aged woman smiled: "My family and I live on the border between the two countries. The Sun-Moon Empire and the Star-Luo Empire often fight on the border. I remember that one time the fighting was quite fierce, and it even reached near our village.

We had no choice but to flee into the Mingdou Mountains. After we finished fighting, we found out when we came out that we had entered the territory of the Sun and Moon Empire."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Huo Yuhao asked: "Auntie, how long have you lived in the Sun and Moon Empire? How did you come to Mingdu?"

"It's been so long that I've forgotten it, but it must have been at least thirty-four years." The middle-aged woman chuckled, "Young man, you don't know how repulsive the people of the Sun and Moon Empire are to us, and they will make things difficult for us at every turn. As soon as they hear that we

We have a Xingluo accent, and even the vegetable vendors charge us a lot more."

"For ordinary people like us, we can only live a somewhat decent life through strenuous work like mining. Fortunately, my family has a lot of strength and can mine several Gintama coins in a day."

"We go to mine owners everywhere to mine, but ordinary people like us can only dig some poor mines that the soul masters don't care about. About twenty years ago, after the last mine closed, we came here

This mining area in Mingdu.”

Facing a young man who had just arrived from her hometown, she showed a strong desire to talk.

Huo Yuhao listened carefully to the middle-aged woman's words and was filled with emotions.

Huo Qiuer asked: "You left your hometown and came here, have you ever thought about going home?"

The middle-aged woman did not feel the slightest sadness about this topic, but said very optimistically: "What are you missing? My hometown has been destroyed a long time ago."

"Besides, I have been in the Sun-Moon Empire for much longer than Xing Luo, and I live a good life here. There is no mining in the Star Luo Empire. How many copper soul coins can I earn when I go back?"

Huo Yuhao fell into silence after hearing this.

In fact, many common people like the middle-aged woman in front of them do not have a deep concept of family and country. They will naturally feel good wherever their life is good and they make more money.

But are they to be blamed for this? Who made them homeless?

The smile on the middle-aged woman's face was quite proud. In her eyes, she and her husband, who were born as commoners, had completed a trivial yet great class leap through mining, which was something worth boasting about.

However, while she was smiling proudly, another woman next to her poured cold water on her: "Oh, I don't know how long this mining area can be dug. I heard that the southeastern mining area won't be able to dig out rocks for a few years. By then,

It’s time to find the next mining area again.”

"You crow's mouth, can you say something nice?" Her lament immediately aroused complaints from other women.

The middle-aged woman looked at Huo Yuhao again and advised: "Young man, you should go to other mining areas when you are young."

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly: "Auntie, you misunderstood, I'm not here to mine, I'm here to provide supporting services."

"You think, after a day of mining, a miner like your lover must be starving and want to eat a delicious barbecue."

As he spoke, he turned over the grilled fish in his hand.

The middle-aged woman asked curiously: "Young man, how do you sell this grilled fish?"

Huo Yuhao smiled and replied: "Two copper soul coins each."

"so cheap?"

Not only the middle-aged women, but also Tianmeng and the others who were eating grilled fish next to them were shocked.

"Yuhao, you didn't set the wrong price..."

"What are you doing to yell at me?" Huo Qiuer looked at him with confusion.

She clearly remembered that Huo Yuhao sold five copper soul coins each in Shrek Academy.

Huo Yuhao said nonchalantly: "I'm not interested in making money from poor people."

The middle-aged woman said in disbelief: "Young... young man, buying such a large fish in our mining area requires at least five copper soul coins. You only sell two copper soul coins. This..."

Huo Yuhao interrupted her with a smile: "Madam, my fish are purchased in bulk from the market in Mingdu. Each fish only costs one copper soul coin, which is very cheap."

"Young man, how did you buy such cheap fish?"

The middle-aged woman looked surprised, but she knew that as soon as their Xingluo accent was spoken, the vendors in Mingdu would sneer and immediately sit down and raise their prices. There was no way they could buy such cheap fish.

At this moment, several rough voices floated from a distance.

"What smells so good? Damn it, I'm so greedy for it."

The few people who spoke had dirty faces and were obviously a group of miners.

Having just finished a day's hard work, several black-faced men were already hungry, and now they smelled such a strange fragrance, their stomachs were agitated and their appetites were greatly increased.

A slightly older miner dragged his tired body forward. He had no hair, only a messy beard that was dyed black and gray.

"Honey, why are you here?" He walked up to the middle-aged woman and handed over three silver soul coins. "I only dug three silver coins today."

This elderly miner is the husband of the middle-aged woman.

He beat his waist and said in a deep voice: "My old waist can still hold on, but I don't know how many more years this mine can be mined and how much money can be saved."

Huo Yuhao observed the miner carefully. He was shirtless, revealing bronze skin covered in dust and a lean and muscular physique. However, his belly was protruding, which made him look a bit uncoordinated.

He has several levels of soul power in him. Although he looks slovenly, it can be seen at a glance that he is a good hand at manual labor.

"Three pieces of silver are quite a lot." The middle-aged woman took the dusty silver soul coin with some distress and put it away carefully.

The elderly miner then turned his attention to Huo Yuhao, staring straight at the grilled fish in front of him, and swallowed: "Little brother, how do you sell this fish?"

"Two copper soul coins one piece."

The miners didn't believe it: "This..."

The middle-aged woman beside him quickly handed over a Gintama coin: "Young man, give us five."

"Thank you for your patronage." Huo Yuhao smiled slightly and said to the side, "Tianmeng, take the money."

Tian Meng blinked before reacting and happily took the slightly dirty Silver Soul Coin.

"Okay~"

Five pieces of fragrant grilled fish were handed to the miner and his co-workers. Naturally, he could not eat the five large grilled fish by himself.

Once the first person buys, others will follow.

"Give me two, too."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Give it to me too..."

"Haha, it's been a long time since I've eaten so well." A group of miners feasted on the food without caring about their appearance, to satisfy their hunger.

After eating two grilled fishes, the elderly miner seemed much more energetic and asked Huo Yuhao: "Little brother, are you new here?"

"Yes, what's wrong, uncle?" Huo Yuhao responded while grilling fish.

"You can't survive selling your stuff so cheaply."

Huo Yuhao smiled and said: "Uncle, don't worry. I have my own channels. Even if I sell two copper soul coins, I will still make a profit. At most, I will make small profits but quick turnover."

"Little brother, I'm doing this for your own good too." The older miner shook his head and said, "Not everyone can do business here. Haven't you noticed that there are not many traders here?"

Huo Yuhao frowned when he heard this. He opened his mental detection slightly, and sure enough he didn't find many small merchants and hawkers on the street.

"What's the point?" he asked.

At this moment, a loud scolding came from the other end of the street. When all the miners heard the words, they couldn't help but trembled and made way to the side in fear.

Oncoming was a tall, strong man with red hair, walking towards Huo Yuhao menacingly.

"Who gave you permission to set up a stall here?"

He asked Huo Yuhao arrogantly. When he spoke, his Xingluo accent was obvious.

Huo Yuhao asked calmly: "Is there any problem with setting up a stall here?"

"No problem, of course no problem."

The red-haired man sneered and glanced at the grilled fish in front of him: "But as long as you set up a stall here, you have to hand over half of the income to our Brother Nan as stall fees."

"And all the food and drink sold must be purchased in our wine shop, otherwise it will be banned."

Collecting protection money? Huo Yuhao frowned upon hearing this.

Ice Emperor raised her eyebrows and without even raising her hand, she could make the blind little bastard in front of her piss off. However, she was stopped by Huo Yuhao's voice.

Other miners and women did not dare to come forward and speak, simply because the red-haired strong man was a second-level soul master and was used to being domineering here.

Huo Yuhao said coldly: "Looking at your accent, you must be from Xingluo, right?"

The red-haired burly man sneered: "So what?"

"Since we are all from Xingluo, we should help each other even more in a foreign country."

"But if you keep talking, you will take half of your income, and you have to buy goods from your place. Isn't it a bit too overbearing?"

The red-haired brawny man laughed loudly: "Overbearing? So what if we are all from Xingluo? Don't try to make friends with me."

"We have no control over the people of the Sun and Moon. As long as the Xingluo people come to our mining area, they must abide by the rules of our mining area."

"Otherwise, I will smash your stall."

Facing the threat from the red-haired burly man, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but cover his face and laughed comically.

It is reasonable for the people of Sun and Moon to reject immigrants from Star Luo. However, the red-haired man in front of him, who is also from Star Luo, can bully his compatriots so naturally. Huo Yuhao feels it is particularly ridiculous, and he sincerely admires him in his heart.

.

Originally, he was curious about how the mine owners managed to employ so many immigrants, but now it suddenly dawned on him.

It turns out that those mine owners used to manage the Xingluo people were the Xingluo people. It must be said that they are really a group of geniuses who have a thorough understanding of human nature.

This is also the reason why Huo Yuhao wants to laugh.

"When a fellow countryman meets a fellow countryman, he shoots him in the back."
