Chapter 211: Live Prey Is More Valuable
After coming out of Zhoujia Village, the first time I was a hunter, this 'job' was surprisingly smooth, and I returned with a full load in just a few hours, although the harvest may be slightly insufficient compared to other hunter teams, but fortunately, there were no casualties, no waste of bullets, which is commendable, Ling Tao didn't know how other hunter teams hunted, but for himself and others, it was quite satisfied.
The way back was also very smooth, and they were not attacked by mutant beasts, even if they dragged two carts full of bloody mutant beast corpses, they were not attacked by mutant beasts.
Ling Tao guessed that this was not because there were no mutant beasts, but that the hunter team that came out in the morning cleaned up the mutant beasts along the way again, which could be seen from the traces of battle and blood on every hundreds of meters and thousands of meters along the way.
When he returned to the gate of Xihe City, he met the person in charge of collecting the hunters' prey yesterday, and he was also stunned for a moment when he saw Ling Tao and the others returning so quickly.
"Little brother, I can't see it, it's not long since everyone else has been out, and you have already harvested it back, I don't have to say a word, cow, I have to admire", the other party looked at Ling Tao and exclaimed.
"Hehe, we're just lucky, when we went out, we met a group of mutant beasts fighting and picked up the cheap, isn't this coming back, but big brother, you are very hard, such a big sun is still here", Ling Tao said with a smile, the so-called seeing people and talking about people and talking nonsense, seven points true and three points false, he will not explain his old bottom, by the way, he complimented the other party, so that the other party's face showed a smile.
"Hehe, where the duty is, it's not as easy and free as you hunters, and then, little brother, don't be presumptuous, many times luck is also part of strength, and even more important than strength, I've seen a lot of hunter teams with strong firepower go out and never return, hey......", the other party shook his head and sighed.
When he finished, he said, "Forget it." Don't say that, and don't delay your time, whatever, because it's not your first time here. It's not the first time I've come back with prey, and this time I can't let you go in like this, you have to move the rules, and we still have to collect one-third of the prey."
"Understand, big brother, you look at it." Ling Tao said with a smile, everyone is such a rule, it is impossible for him to break it, this kind of thing that breaks the rules is only done by a fool, of course, before there is no means against the sky, those who break the rules will not end well.
Watching a third of the prey that I had worked so hard to hunt was taken away, it was false to say that I didn't feel sorry, but there was no way to do it, the golden pheasant and the mutant bird and a toad leg in the prey were taken away. Then the other party waved his hand and let go!
When he entered the city wall, Ling Tao sighed in his heart, he didn't know who was in charge of this Xihe City, not to mention anything else, just collecting the hunters' prey every day was enough to make ordinary people dare not imagine a fortune.
Passing by the potholed street, Ling Tao stopped again, and there was a longing in his heart to see the red-clothed figure who didn't even know his name again. It's a pity that he was disappointed again.
When I came to the trading area, there were few people in the desert at this time, of course. Referring to the hunters, there is no shortage of armed men to guard them.
Ling Tao and Zhou Dazhu took their prey directly to find Bao Tu, after all, they had a transaction, and they were all familiar with it.
It's almost noon, and it's time to see Bao Tu again. This guy obviously just woke up, and when the other party saw Ling Tao and they came back with their prey so soon, they were also stunned for a moment.
"Brother Ling Tao, you are capable, when everyone else is still working hard, you have already returned from the harvest, so I have to admire Lao Bao", staring at the bare head, Bao Tu gave Ling Tao a thumbs up.
At the same time, Bao Tu was also sighing in his heart, worthy of being a character who can hunt mutant beasts with a knife, it is a bull fork, look at it, how long has it been since he came back, and the prey, there is no trace of gunfire at all, all of them are traces of knife and arrow wounds, what does this prove? It proves that the other party did not use a gun at all, and directly used a cold weapon to hunt prey.
"Hehe, it's just luck......", Ling Tao said with a smile, repeating the set he had told the person in charge of the door before.
Bao Tu doesn't believe in this, luck? Fart's luck, why don't others have such good luck? That's the strength! However, Bao Tu did not break it, but added three points to his enthusiasm, and Yu Lingtao traded them.
However, this transaction is not as cheap as yesterday for Ling Tao and them to take advantage of, according to the normal process, although Ling Tao's prey is only an incomplete mutant toad, but it is better because it is a large size, and the other party does not want it because it is just a toad.
Since one-third of the prey was handed over to the official, after Ling Tao weighed the rest of the prey, there were still 1,980 catties left, rounded up, and Bao Tu counted 2,000 catties, that is to say, the mutant toad that Ling Tao hunted alone had more than 2,000 catties, which was worthy of the name.
Since he had to go out later, Ling Tao didn't exchange these things for any items, but directly asked for twenty bullets, this kind of thing is useful at any time, even if it is depreciated, it can be used in battle, a veritable hard currency.
"Okay, Brother Bao, I'll trouble you, I see that it's still early, go out again, and try to get more prey back, don't you know, we just came here, and we need money everywhere", when the transaction was completed, Ling Tao smiled.
"That's okay, I won't bother and delay you, go early and return early, pay attention to safety, I'll wait for your triumphant return", Bao Tu said with a smile.
Saying these words, he has two meanings in his heart, first, he can shorten the distance between the two sides and befriend Ling Tao, and second, Ling Tao They can return from hunting and sell their prey to him, this is the performance, just two sentences, and it doesn't waste money, why not?
Just as he was about to leave to hunt again, Ling Tao patted his head and turned to look at Bao Tu and said, "By the way, Brother Bao, I forgot to tell you something."
Bao Tu smiled: "What is it?" I'm still bothering you to sue me specifically"?
"Hey, it's not a big deal, it's just to sue you, there is a mutant spider in the toad's stomach, which was swallowed whole by it, and it didn't take long for the toad to die, and I don't know if the spider in its stomach is alive, I will sue you, lest you accidentally be injured by the spider in its stomach when dealing with the toad, that thing is poisonous, of course, the chance of the spider surviving is quite small", Ling Tao smiled.
When Bao Tu heard Ling Tao's words, a trace of unparalleled surprise flashed in his eyes, and he subconsciously asked, "What you said is true?" Is it possible that there is a living mutated poisonous spider in the stomach of the toad? Big or not"?
Although he didn't understand why Bao Tu was so surprised, Ling Tao still said: "It's quite big, several legs are more than one meter wide and nearly two meters wide, which is beyond the scope of mutant insects, and can be regarded as a mutant beast."
"Haha, Brother Ling Tao, you wait, I'll let people deal with this toad now, if you really find a living mutant spider, wait for me to give you a big gift", Bao Tu dropped such a sentence and ran away in a hurry, and he could hear his loud shouting while running, as if he was asking people to quickly dispose of the toad corpse.
What's going on? Ling Tao's head was full of questions, but the other party asked him to wait, so wait.
The group found a shade to take a dip in the shade, and waited to see what kind of plane Bao Tu was going to build, the waiting time was not long, it was only less than ten minutes, only to see Bao Tu walk out with a look of winning the jackpot, looking at Ling Tao up and down.
"Brother Bao, what kind of eyes are you? I can see that I am hairy", Ling Tao looked at Bao Tu and joked.
"Tut, Brother Ling Tao, you have done me a great favor," Bao Tu said with a smile on his face.
"How to say"? Ling Tao wondered.
"Haha, that's right, do you see every acquisition point here? The prey they collect is basically dead, in fact, it is not of much value, the really valuable prey, in fact, is alive, only the live prey, the value is the greatest, just now when I asked people to dispose of the toad's corpse, sure enough, a living spider was found in its stomach, do you know how much this living spider is worth"? Bao Tu said with some excitement.
Seeing that Ling Tao was dazed, he stretched out a finger and said: "A thousand bullets, at least worth a thousand bullets, this is still the purchase price, I can't guess the real value, although the spider is almost dying just now, but it is alive, this is the only living thing that has been collected so far, I have asked people to speed up the delivery to the boss, it is foreseeable that when the boss receives this spider, my old bag is going to be promoted and make a fortune, I don't have to say, a thousand bullets to buy that spider, I'll give you another gift"!
"No, wait, Brother Bao, you made it clear, why didn't I understand"? Ling Tao asked.
"Hey, to put it simply, living mutant beasts are not easy to get, until now no hunter can get live prey, all live prey is precious, and the bosses behind these acquisition stations want live prey, whether it is in research or other aspects, in short, the value is very high, do you understand"? Bao Tu explained.
Well, I understand, although I don't know which people want to do what the live prey does, but Ling Tao understands a truth, the value of living prey is very high, and the value cannot be judged by catties and two!
What Ling Tao didn't expect was that a spider that he had almost ignored was actually comparable to the harvest of an ordinary hunter team in a few days, was this a windfall?
What Ling Tao didn't know was that when they were dealing with the corpse of the mutant toad before, the poisonous spider ran out, although it was dying, but it was not small, and in order to catch it, it almost killed a few people!
