i have absolutely no good will for these people anymore, they are so god damn stupid and easily manipulated into ruining their own lives that they really deserve to live beggars in the street.
MC should just take anything worthwhile and then sell the town, there's no point in sticking around this dump with these defective morons.

So there has been a lot of discussion about why the MC doesn't use his power to get the food and I looked at the novel for a while and found a few details that don't appear on the manhua. From that I did a few not so bullshit calculations to find if it was feasible for him to do such a thing.

1 person needs to eat an average of 2.500 calories per day.

From the novel we find that his inner storage has a volume of 2m3.

On average 1 kg of grain has 3.500 calories.

The density of grain is more less 750 kg per m3.

So the storage can hold more or less 1.500kg of grain.

1.500 * 3.500 = 4.5 million calories.

4.500.000 / 2.500 = 1.800 persons.

From the novel we find that the MC mentions that the city even though it is called a city would be more of a town in his original world.

The population of a town is between 1.000-10.000 people.

Thus it is feasible for the MC to go to the Earth to buy 1.5 tons of grain everyday and feed the population provided they have other sources of food available.

But in the novel when the MC goes to earth he explains that he is very careful when using the storage (doing so out of sight) for fear of someone finding out that he has that power.

So it would probably be a bit weird for someone to go somewhere to buy 1.5 tons of grain everyday. With the added benefit that he would need to carry all that weight into the storage every single day, it's just not practical.

It's also stated that he uses the storage to buy things (small trinkets and everyday items) which he can make a profit out of but wouldn't be too out of place in a medieval type world.

I'm confused.... wasn't MC has the ability to teleport between worlds? It said in chapter 1 that MC has travel between worlds. I'm sure there's a solution somewhere MC can take advantage of from Earth.

If it wasn't for future problems he should just have taken up the merchant on his public offer. When he called out "Just send someone directly to our warehouse to pick it up", he should have sent everyone to take everything and share with their neighbors. Then just not pay more than somewhere around "normal cost" since "it wasn't weighed at delivery, I can't let myself be scammed"

it seems like after this problem is over, the MC must "reeducation" the people including the merchant with an iron fist 🤔😅

The pacing is weird. It seems to skip over so much, then it spends so much time on one annoying confrontation. Plus, the story didn't explain why mc is even sticking around. What is his motivation for having to deal with a worthless peasant mob that he has no attachment to? Why not just leave and continue earning gold as a merchant, selling dollar store goods from earth.

jesus, this is just dumb. just how can anyone be so bad at writing. the TL team would be doing us a mercy by changing the dialog so the story isnt garbage like this, its so far below what is even considered average that its almost not even worth reading to see if it will get better.
