Shut up! I'm not a destroyer!

But in fact, you can also know the purchasing power of money by going out for a meal.

Just check the menu to find out.

The problem is that she wants to read the newspaper, she wants to get information.

Although he still looked confused, Fukakai Yamato walked towards the newsstand.

"Two beautiful shipgirls, how can I help you?"

Seeing the two ship girls approaching the newsstand with a clear purpose, the owner sitting in the newsstand immediately put on a smile.

NO.341 Purple side bangs

It seems that the vendors in this city are either very mercenary or very smooth-talking.

Of course, Veneto doesn't care much about this. For people who can struggle to survive in such an environment, commercialism is a survival instinct.

Straightforward and simple people are not suitable for survival in troubled times, unless they are those with particularly strong fighting power, such as the ship girls.

"Bring me a newspaper."

Veneto pointed to the newspapers on the outermost shelf of the newsstand.

The largest content on the front is a scene of a coastal city being attacked by the deep sea.

The smoking steel wall above is different from the steel wall in Nagasaki. It is obviously another city.

"Two coppers, Miss Kanmusu."

The newsstand owner had a broad smile on his face.

Ship girls usually have their own channels for obtaining information. For example, free newspapers are placed in the lobby of the city's garrison.

Many ship girls would go there to read newspapers, unless they were new to the city and had not yet reported to the garrison here.

Then it shouldn't be a big problem if he adds one more copper coin.

"Give."

Veneto frowned. The smile of the newsstand owner was similar to that of the resource vendor before.

There must be something fishy going on. They probably raised the price again.

However, Veneto decided to wait until the other party found the money before deciding whether to take action.

"Hiss, such a large amount. Please wait a moment."

Although the amount is large, the newsstand owner is still reluctant to give up the money he should earn.

The main reason is that he doesn't make much money a day, and he really can't afford to give it away for free.

However, seeing that the ship girl was paying with gold coins, the boss also used respectful terms in his words.

"One gold coin with a face value of 50 yuan, nine silver coins with a face value of 1 yuan, and eight copper coins with a face value of 1 cents."

Veneto played with the coins in his hand, muttering quietly.

She interpreted the money she received according to her own understanding of the monetary system.

In fact, the system has always been similar, using different materials to distinguish currencies of equal value. Humans have been using this rule since the moment they invented currency.

"Let's go, we should still be able to afford food, as long as we don't order anything too expensive."

Veneto looked at the broken 100-yuan coin in his hand with heartache, not knowing if it could still be used.

In fact, the purchasing power of currency is converted through newspapers because newspapers are the cheapest.

Basic foods, such as some grains, should come second.

Because staple food is a basic need, if the price is too high, society would have been in turmoil long ago.

Although the city of Nagasaki was smashed into pieces by the war, the people in Nagasaki were like walking corpses.

However, the social structure remains.

The best reflection of this is that the city still persists in this place not far from the sea.

As long as this city exists, the price of food cannot be very high.

If a newspaper only costs one or two copper coins, then staple food shouldn't cost too many copper coins either.

In contrast, I have no idea what the prices of vegetables and meat are.

Judging from where the vegetables are grown, the yield is not expected to be very high, so the price will not be very low...

Veneto even felt that those vegetable farmers might be taking advantage of the location of their fields to drive up vegetable prices.

"You two, would you like to eat? Please come in."

When the restaurant waiter saw Fukamiya holding Veneto, his eyes lit up.

It’s not that KanColle are rich, but that they eat a lot.

Well, for restaurants, eating more means having more money.

"Come, sit here."

The waiter led the two directly to a table along the street on the first floor.

There is a road outside, so passers-by can see the two eating.

Veneto glanced at the sign that the waiter put away very naturally, which read "Reserved for KanColle".

It seems that the owner of this restaurant is very good at doing business. He placed the ship girls who came in to eat at the window seat and directly borrowed the ship girls' faces.

Is this considered a part-time job as a poster girl?

Veneto felt a little uncomfortable. She and Fukukai Yamato were sneaking in and were being put under the spotlight. She didn't know if this was a good thing.

The principle of keeping the dark under the lamp is for those who are prepared, the kind who can produce strong proof of identity, even if it is fake, few people will bother to verify it.

She is not like Deep Sea Yamato. If she really releases her ship equipment, Deep Sea Yamato will definitely be exposed.

Veneto could at least cover it up.

But ever since she sat down, she always felt something was wrong.

"Guest, would you like to order?"

The waiter was a little confused. The destroyer girl had been looking down since she sat down, and no one knew what she was thinking.

"Oh, let me see."

Veneto picked up the menu handed to him by the waiter, and after seeing the prices clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The few gold coins she has should be able to fill Deep Sea Yamato's belly.

It can be seen that military resources are very valuable no matter what era.

The most expensive item on the menu is deep-sea fish, but you can buy a plate of it for just one silver coin.

"How big is this portion?"

Veneto points to the steamed cod on the menu.

“It’s about this big.”

The waiter gestured with a large basin that was as big as two people's faces.

He also noticed that it was the first time for the two 'Kanmusume' to come.

But it’s different from resource vendors.

After the resource vendors know about the ship girl, they will go to the naval base to buy resources, so it is a one-time transaction with him, so it is normal to be a little cheated.

Hotels are completely different. When they see a new ship girl, not only will they not raise the price, they will even give you a discount.

Because food is a long-term need, although the local garrison also provides a canteen, it mainly supplies its own ship girls.

It is embarrassing for foreign ship girls to go out to eat, so restaurants become a must.

Unless the ship girls have settled down here, they may buy their own groceries and cook their own meals.

Restaurants value repeat customers.

The waiter, knowing what was going on, became even more enthusiastic.

"Since this is your first time in our store, I'll give you the buy one get one free."

At first glance, this big sister ship girl is either a battleship or an aircraft carrier, and they are both very greedy.

He just thought of it as making small profits but quick turnover today, earning some money from personal favors. It wasn't really a loss, and he could also gain the friendship of the ship girl.

If this repeat customer becomes familiar, you will be able to make money in the future.

"How about this, I'll give you these first, and you can order the basic dishes with large quantities to make up the price... Don't order the expensive dishes with small quantities for now, because we're afraid we don't have enough money."

Veneto counted out five gold coins, equivalent to five hundred dollars, and placed them in the waiter's hand.

"Okay, please go ahead."

The waiter took the gold coins, served boiled water to Veneto and Fukayama, picked up the menu, and ran to the kitchen.

"Can we order food like this?"

Deep Sea Yamato's piercing eyes stared straight at Veneto.

This is her learning style.

"Otherwise, do you know what you want to eat? Do you know what this restaurant's specialty is?"

Veneto picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, then asked Fukukai Yamato.

"What if that thing orders something we don't like?"

Fukamiya was silent for a while and asked.

"You? Then do you know what you don't like to eat?"

Veneto raised his eyes and looked towards Deep Sea Yamato.

"do not know."

Fukayama was silent for a while before answering.

"Isn't it? You haven't discovered what food you hate yet, which means you have eaten too few dishes. I can only do this to broaden your horizons and help you identify your preferences."

In fact, Veneto just wanted to save trouble, so he let the waiter do the task of selecting dishes.

But now, she only needs to talk a few words of truth to deal with Deep Sea Yamato. She doesn't have to rack her brains to choose, or ask Yamato what he wants to eat, because she knows that Yamato definitely wants to eat everything.

"But may I ask, colleague, why are you staring at us?"

Veneto turned around and looked at an older sister who was sitting at a table behind him, also by the window.

Obviously this person is also a ship girl.

The ship girl had short purple hair, and her side bangs directly covered her right eye.

The whole ship girl looks very heroic.

NO.342 You are more suitable to play Belfast, the armor is as thick

Not knowing why this ship girl was looking at his table, Veneto felt a little guilty.

But she couldn't show her timidity at this time. The more timid she was, the easier it would be for the other party to see through her, she thought.

So she plucked up her courage and asked, "Why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?"

However, Veneto's question received no response, the one-eyed ship girl just stared at her.

"Hey, you're blushing like a bubble teapot!"

Although we know that we should keep a low profile at this time, not everyone can remain calm when facing a stranger who is staring at you.

Especially since this person's cheeks had a suspicious blush.

"Woo!"

Suddenly, Deep Sea Yamato made a strange sound.

"What are you doing?"

Veneto rubbed his brows and turned around.
