Cole frowned slightly as he traded the 50 Energy Fruits. He didn’t have many Energy Fruits left.
Looking at the newly obtained fruit, Cole bounced up and down. It was a little heavy, and the outer layer of the fruit was like a tough shell.
“Hopefully, this fruit will allow me to get more resources. My fruit types are a little too simple.”
Cole buried the fruit in the pit. Not long after, another huge tree appeared in front of him.
[Food Fruit Tree]
[Type: Secondary Divine Tree]
[Product: Food Fruit]
[Cycle: 0.8 days (180/365)]
[Number of Productions: 3]
[Quantity of Productions: 1,000]
“It can ripen once every 0.8 days. Won’t it ripen faster if I use fertilizer?”
Cole suddenly thought of the fertilizer he exchanged from [Xuebang Xiaowei]. Although it was from the graveyard, it should not have much effect on the taste of the food fruit.
After taking the fertilizer out of the warehouse, Cole continued to sprinkle the fertilizer around the Food Fruit Tree.

After using one-third of the fertilizer, the Food Fruit had matured.
[Ding, Food Fruit has matured. Food Fruit x1000]
“Very good, now there’s food!”
Cole activated his energy and pulled out the five B1 Battle Droids that were patrolling at the same time. He asked them to bring the food and another doppelganger to the Watchtower.
Taking advantage of the night, Cole brought the five B1 Battle Droids into the city.
“This food should be able to be sold temporarily for a period of time.”
When he arrived at the store, the second doppelganger saw that the store was already filled with wooden shelves. The second doppelganger waved at the fifteen B1 Battle Droids and asked them to find a few wooden display plates and put the food into them.
When a new day arrived, the store was almost done. After the second doppelganger wrote the last word on the sign, he let out a long sigh, clapped his hands, and disappeared.
The doppelganger lying on the wooden bed on the second floor suddenly opened his eyes.
He stretched out his leg and kicked Ceci, who was resting on the ground.
“Ceci, get up. It’s time to start selling food.”
“Huh… Huh? Huh?”
Ceci was woken up by the kick. He looked around in confusion and slowly sat up. Cole’s doppelganger stretched out his hand to tidy up his hair, tidied up his clothes, and quickly went downstairs.
Looking at the neatly placed food on the shelf, the doppelganger nodded seriously.
“The preparations for selling the things are almost done.”
“Boss, this food… how did they get here?”
Ceci looked at the food on the shelf in surprise. He walked in front of a loaf of bread and took a deep breath. The fragrance of the bread entered his nose.
“It smells so good, like it just came out of the oven. Boss, how did you do it?”
“The ability of the Doppelganger Fruit can create more than one doppelganger. All the food here is bought from the Trading Mall. Sell it here and exchange it for some resources.”
“I will assign five B1 Battle Droids to sell, patrol, and replenish the supply. The rest of the B1 Battle Droids will have to follow us to other places. However, it’s the first day of business today, so we have to be there in person.”
When the doppelganger walked out of the store, several gazes came from all over the street. The doppelganger clapped his hands and shouted at the pedestrians on the street.
“Everyone! Constantine’s Store is officially open for business today! Welcome, everyone! Today, all the bread will be sold for one copper coin! I can guarantee that the price of the bread today will not exceed ten copper coins! Welcome to the store!”
For a moment, a large crowd of people poured into the store. Fourteen B1 Battle Droids quickly maintained order, allowing every customer to have a piece of bread. At the same time, they also made sure that the customers did not cheat while waiting in line to pay the bill.
The remaining B1 Battle Droid collected money from every customer who bought bread at the entrance of the shop. In a short while, a hill of copper coins was piled up.
“I like to count money. It’s fifteen copper coins in total.”
“Sometimes, robots are more useful than people. Let’s go, let’s go to the city.”
“Okay, Boss!”
Ceci followed Cole’s doppelganger and started to walk around the city.
Gold Coast City was divided into four parts: East, west, south, and north. The north side was where the City Lord’s mansion and a group of nobles lived. The west side was the territory of adventurers and some itinerant merchants. The south side was where the ordinary residents and churches were located, and the east side was a normal commercial street. The doppelganger’s store was also on the east side.
“I asked you to buy a cabinet yesterday. Where did you buy it?”
“I bought two silver ones from the traveling merchants on the west side. It feels good. Why don’t you buy two as well, Big Brother?”
“It doesn’t matter. I mainly want to get something useful for the Divine Tree from those traveling merchants.”
The doppelganger took out ten gold coins from his pocket and handed them to Ceci. They were obtained from the sale of Earth Crystals to Priest Hill.
“Twenty gold coins. I’ll give you half. Go buy something useful for the Divine Tree and bring it back. Don’t bring a whole body of gold and silver when you go back. It’s useless for the growth of the Divine Tree.”
“I got it.”
Ceci, who was lectured by the doppelganger, took ten gold coins to the mobile merchants to find treasures that could be useful for the Divine Tree. Meanwhile, the doppelganger was also strolling around.
“Water Crystals! One of them only costs ten silver coins!”
“Healing potions! They can heal wounds! It’s a must-have when traveling!”
“Come and have a look, come and have a look! There are many good things here! Weapons, medicine! Everything!”
As the plague subsided, the number of adventurers on the streets began to increase. The doppelganger also saw a few merchants selling goblin slaves.
He suddenly thought of the Brave Heart anime that he used to watch in anger. In the anime, the Brave Heart had a bird that could transform into a human, and it was hatched from a bird egg. He wondered if there was one here.
‘Am I too greedy? After all, that Divine Tree of mine can bear any fruit. If it can bear another Life Fruit, I won’t have to be so greedy for the main character’s mount.’
While thinking, the doppelganger went to a shop and picked up a water-type crystal that was placed on the surface for sale.
[Water Crystal]
[Effect: Can open up a stream in the manor. The function of the stream is no different from rainwater.]
‘D*mn! This thing is also awesome. If I buy a bunch of it and lay it on the place where I planted the tree, won’t I be able to lie down and let the Divine Fruit Tree ripen? I don’t even need to add any fertilizer!’
The doppelganger immediately took the crystal and looked at the boss.
“Boss, how much is this crystal? I want to buy it in large quantities!”
