American Comics Plane Trader

Back home, Josie looked at the time and his watch, it was around seven o'clock in the evening.

After thinking about it, he still called out the trader.

This time, though, Daenerys was a little slow to emerge.

Josie waited for a full fifteen minutes, and when she felt like she couldn't wait any longer, Daenerys in cool clothes appeared on the screen.

"Oh, it seems that I interrupted your good business!" Looking at Daenerys with the tide on the screen and full of love in her eyes, Josie smiled narrowly.

Obviously, the queen of this different world has just experienced a fierce battle.

It seems that Daenerys has returned to Meereen, and Josie reckons that the person she is fighting with should be the leader of the second son of the mercenary group, Dario.

"Now that you know, pick a better time next time." Faced with Josie's ridicule, Daenerys said without changing her expression.

The atmosphere in Westeros is very open, and Daenerys has experienced even more embarrassing scenes, so Josie's teasing can't affect Daenerys' heart at all.

"But this is indeed a problem. Although the transaction is very important, it is not good if it interferes with our personal life. In this case, let's set a fixed time. If there is indeed any accident that causes the missed time, then the transaction It will be postponed to the next day." Josie said.

"That's right, let's talk about the time." Daenerys naturally didn't have much opinion on this.

"Then according to 19:00 system time, how about it, the waiting time is 10 minutes each time, that is to say, if any of us does not show up at 19:10 system time, it will be automatically postponed to the next day, so that unless there is some emergency situation, we don’t have to worry about disturbing each other.” Josie looked at the time on the system and said.

Although they are different planes, according to the reminder of the trading system, the time flow rate of all trading planes will be automatically synchronized with the plane where Josie is located, and the time displayed by the system is also based on the Chicago time where he is currently located.

"Yes!" Daenerys agreed after thinking about it. This time is basically her rest time. After all, the nightlife in Westeros is actually very monotonous, and it is easy to find time. I haven't seen you for some time today. Leo's animal was a little suffocated, and its fighting power was outstanding, which made her unable to stop before delaying it.

"That's the matter of the time, so do you have any surprises for me today?" After confirming the regular trading time in the future, Daenerys asked.

"Sorry, because of a little accident today, I was not able to stock up. To express my apologies, I have prepared some other things for you." Josie said, and put two kraft paper bags on the system trading column, Just ordered the transaction without asking for money.

"What is it?" Daenerys didn't complain to Josie.

Although she attaches great importance to firearms, at this time she has already used almost the most powerful military strength on the continent of Westeros, so the demand for firearms in the short term is not very urgent.

However, she is still looking forward to what novelty Josie will prepare for her in another world.

"Some sugar and chocolate." Josie shrugged.

Just as he said, the contents of the two brown paper bags are one pound of sugar and one pound of chocolate, which means that each is less than a catty.

He bought it at a store he passed by after lunch before going to see the house with Margot.

Although the amount does not seem to be much, don't think Josie is stingy.

But sugar was the most strictly regulated type of civilian supplies during the American war, even surpassing tires and gasoline. The standard ration of sugar (including chocolate) per person per week was only 0.25 pounds, which was about two taels.

And this one pound of sugar and one pound of chocolate is already the stock of all the sugar coupons of Mike, a black car dealer.

"I know sugar, but what is chocolate?" Daenerys didn't think too much when she heard it was sugar. Chocolate is very interesting.

"A candy made from a fruit unique to our world, which has the effect of pleasing the mood." Josie explained.

"Wait, this is sugar? Such pure sugar?" Hearing Josie's explanation, Daenerys was obviously very interested, but when she opened the bag containing white sugar, she was stunned.

While Westeros has dragons, it has witchcraft, and maybe even gods.

But to put it bluntly, its productivity may not even be as good as that of medieval Europe.

So even if there is sugar, it's at most that rough brown sugar lump.

Fine white granulated sugar is unheard of at all.

"That's right, that's sugar. It's called white sugar because it's as fine as white gravel." Josie nodded.

"Oh, my God, this taste is so pure and sweet." After receiving Josie's confirmation, Daenerys carefully picked out a pinch of white sugar with her slender little fingernail, and slowly Send to cherry lips.

Immediately, as if tasting some peerless delicacy, he closed his eyes and enjoyed it.

Seeing Daenerys' careful tasting process and intoxicated look, Josie couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth. For a moment, he even suspected that what he was sending was not sugar, but some kind of indescribable source of evil.

"Sorry, I lost my composure, but I have never tasted such a pure and sweet taste!" After being intoxicated for a while, Daenerys came back to her senses and said to Josie.

"It's okay, but I think you'll like chocolate better after you try it." Josie shrugged.

"Thank you, I will taste it carefully, but such pure sugar should be expensive?" Daenerys couldn't help asking.

"Well, it's really expensive. After all, strategic materials are strictly controlled." Josie nodded. The two pounds of sugar and chocolate cost him 4 dollars in addition to the ration coupons.

And how much is the price of Common beef? 40 cents a pound.

This is still the price with ration coupons.

If you go to the black market to buy it with money, the price may have to be doubled several times.

There is no doubt that this price is sky-high compared to the cheap sugar price in later generations.

In fact, the price of sugar in the United States is still relatively cheap.

During World War II, the most exaggerated increase in sugar prices was actually foot-pot chicken.

During the period when the price of sugar was at its peak, it was a full 770 times higher than before the war, while grain, gasoline and other war supplies only increased by 50 times.

After World War II, American soldiers could buy a gentle and considerate Yamato Nadeko with a piece of chocolate.

It's just that what Josie said was quite expensive, but in the end, it's actually a relatively cheap price compared to later generations.

But Daenerys misunderstood, thinking that Josie spent a lot of gold before.

Anyone who has watched Game of Thrones knows that Daenerys, as the queen, is very generous to her opponents.

Although Josie was not her subordinate, she felt that she could not let Josie suffer for the tribute of such precious food.

So with a swipe of the little hand in the air, the system sounded a transaction reminder.

Then Josie was dumbfounded.

Because there is gold on the transaction column, a thousand ounces.

Is this woman crazy?

Josie knew that sugar was expensive in ancient times, but basically according to the ancient sugar-deficient medieval Europe and the home-cooked chickens of World War II, the price was at most the same as gold.

But two pounds of sugar for a thousand ounces is already thirty times the price of gold.

This is still selling hammer guns, isn't it good to sell candy?

Fortunately, what Daenerys said next made Josie understand that she was not in a daze.
