The high price of vegetables in Night City is not just due to the shortage of water; in fact, there is also the issue of biotechnological manipulation of yields to raise prices for profit.
In this regard, they have learned the essence from the Neon People.
In the agricultural building of Night City, the wealthy designate a favored agricultural guardian to personally tend to the growth of their produce and take daily photos to post on social media for when they feel like glancing at them.
The degree of exaggeration is such that for every single grape on a bunch, these guardians need to wipe them individually with a wet wipe and photograph them.
Otherwise, how else can I sell a single grape for 100 Orokin?
Using absurd planting methods to seize pricing power has been a masterful game by the Neon since the last century.
What the rich leave uneaten flows into the low-end market of Night City.
At the bar, canned oranges are sold by the segment.
