“……”Lee Hyun was selecting the meat from then on.‘Since were on a budget, I’ll start with the most expensive.’He chose 2 kilograms of each of the pork belly, neck, and ribs.The meat bought in corresponding to the 8 people eating for three days and two nights, so it seemed right. Since he didn’t know whether it was lacking or not, so he got pork chops just in case.“It’s not much but here are some ham hocks on the house.”“Thank you.”The next place Lee Hyun went to was the grocer!By the way, when cooking, if you don’t have fresh vegetables to accompany the meat, you won’t be able to wake up your taste buds.At this place here, Choi Sang-jung and Park Sunjo were disheveled.Poram Vegetable 21.Dapeojwo Vegetable 19.From there, the grocers’ name didn’t change their pattern.There was almost no vegetable on display; while the ones that were, were still inside the box with the box top cut off, boxes stacked on each other.Lee Hyun picked the lettuce, onion, and cabbage boxes.“How much are they?”“3,000 Won for a box of lettuce, onion 3,000 Won, cabbage is 5,000 Won.”“Please give me parsleys, leeks, garlic, peppers, and potatoes too.”“How much do you need?”“A lot. Enough for 8 people for 3 days and 2 nights worth.”“For you students 90,000. I’ll give you a lot!”The grocers pulled out boxes one after another to give him. There were eight extra sweet potatoes lying on top of them.“These are only 7,000 Won for all.”Lee Hyun hesitated for a moment before receiving.“If you sell it at that, doesn’t it mean it’ll go south pretty soon…”“It’s because nowadays we’ve got too much sweet potatoes so they’re cheap. Just take them.”Once all the boxes were placed, Lee Hyun turned and asked.“Do you also want to eat fruits?”“Huh? Yes. I can eat then if we have them to eat.”Lee Yuu-Chong in embarrassment replied with a slur.In the tight budget of 50,000 Won per person; even when they had came up with a guideline, they never expected to be able to buy everything they could.Of course, they never planned to have fruits. But as it happened, they went along with Lee Hyun to the store.“Auntie.”“You’re back, bachelor.”“Yes. How much for the strawberries?”“2 boxes for 4,000 Won. I’ll round the items in the front to 3,000.”“Please give me two of the good ones. Cheap please.”“Cha! Here’s just for healthy guys like you. Just 3,000 Won.”Choi Sang-jung and Park Sunjo loudly exclaimed.“Keek!”“What kind of prices is this low?”It seemed as if they came to a strange country. While they were pushing carts in the market to purchase items, they had no clue about the existence of this place.Anyway, to the disarray of the other party members, with everything up to the strawberries, they were far from reaching the budget limit.Lee Yuu-Chong asked excitedly.“Aren’t just the tent, cookwares, and oven left and we’re going to make it!”Lee Hyun shook his head just once.“The MT preparation was to be entrusted to me. So I will take care of getting ready.”“We’re ordered to not borrow any tools.”“I’ll take care of everything. On a side note, who here can’t eat pork chops so I’ll buy some other food?”“If that’s all we have then it’s fine, but…”Lee Hyun took them on a trip around the marketplace, and bought a bit of shrimps, tofu, and shell fish.Also, he did not forget to buy red pepper, bean paste, salt, and seasonings.“You eat chicken, right?”When Lee Hyun asked, the now tired Lee Yuu-Chong simply nodded. Park Sunjo and Choi Sang-jung had long since turned into quiet porters.“I’ll bring a chicken from home and treat it as a wholesale price.”“From home?”“Because we raise them in the yard.”“Ah. You’re raising them as pets.”“Nah. As for human consumption.”“……”“I raised them since they were chicks and when they bear eggs I raised those too.”“But it must have been hard to raise the chickens so we can’t just eat them.”“It’s ok, we have 7 chickens at home. First is Boiled Egg. Second is Sunny Side Up.”“No way, those are their names?”“Correct. The third one is called Mother Hen. Because she raises the chicks. Or I should call her the Protagonist since she’s also one that bears new arrivals. From the forth one upward are classified as food. Soup, Fried, and Sauce. The seventh one is the youngest, Half Sauce Half Fried. The naming process is altered by family branches, but the full name doesn’t get pass on from generation to generation.” (that is, 2nd gen - ‘half fried’, 3rd gen - ‘fourth fried,’ never just fried.)“……”
Do not expect warmth from Lee Hyun. Even chickens he raised are just food!
