Chapter 40: The Value of Herbs
"These dogs look down on people's things, sooner or later I have to let them know how good I am!" Fat Dudu scolded and walked to the bed, took out the bag containing herbs, he carefully took them out one by one with his fat fingers to check, Lin Yanxiao took the opportunity to check it with the identification panel.

[Hemostatic herb: basic herb, medium quality, accelerates wound healing, has a wide range of growth, and mostly grows in sunny places. 】
[Red tail grass: basic herb, medium quality, anti-inflammatory and blood nourishing, mostly grows in low-lying and humid places, and is associated with cage grass. 】
The text description above is a picture of the herb, the hemostatic grass has long leaves, a long stalk grows in the middle, and the head has small yellow flowers, and the red tail grass, as its name suggests, is only one-third the size of the hemostatic grass, most of the leaves are green, and only the place connected to the stem is beautiful red.
"What is the cage grass, is it the pile of weeds I pulled out at that time?" Lin Yanxiao curiously typed the word "cage grass" into the identification column, and the identification panel immediately popped up the picture and explanation of the cage grass. The cage is dwarf, green all over, with leaves half the size of a fingernail and small green sacs on top of the branches.
[Cage grass: non-basic herbs, mostly associated with redtail grass; the sac secretes an extractable liquid with a paralyzing effect, attracts insects, and falls into the soil to provide nutrients after paralysis to death; the leaves are highly poisonous, a leaf is enough to poison an adult, and the root lumpy part can be used to make an antidote. 】
Lin Yanxiao sighed that he really couldn't underestimate these plants, who would have thought that this inconspicuous weed would have such great lethality. He closed the appraisal bar, where Fat Dudu was getting dressed, and he muttered, "I'm going to sell these little treasures first, I know that the iron rooster in the pharmacy likes to keep prices down, but I won't be deceived by him!"
"As for you, my protector, you must follow me and rush out to protect me when I am in danger. Fat Dudu looked at Lin Yan with a trusting eye, he always felt that the mistress of the manor would kill him when everyone didn't care. Lin Yanxiao silently raised his hand and pressed down his bony arm that almost got goosebumps, and nodded silently.
There was no carriage, he twisted his big ass and walked to the back door of the manor, the servants who were working looked at him with sneer, Fat Dudu was used to laughing, he simply stopped the cart that was going to the city to procure, pouted his ass and sat on it.
"Go down, you lazy pig, I'm going to buy Madame her beloved silk, and I'll be out of stock when I'm late!" said the man who controlled the reins.
"Fart, you idiot, how can you afford a broken car like you, tell you, this boy has important things to do, and if you delay my business, you will wait to be whipped!" Fat Dudu raised his fist and threatened.
"Is there anything important about you?" said the coachman, smiling disdainfully, and someone next to him said, "you take him and see what he is going to do, and if he lies, you will make him pay you the fare." ”
"This is my car!I have the right to use it!" cried Fat Dudu.
"Hahahaha, you go and ask anyone who thinks you are the owner of the manor, if you don't agree to this condition, I won't take you to the city. The coachman looked him up and down, and said, "Bet on your clothes, and if you are not serious, take them off and give them to me, and you will shut them up yourself." ”
Fat Dudu blushed, he gritted his teeth and said, "That's it!"
The carts creak along the roads in the suburbs, which are rainy and muddy in the summer, and the estate usually does not hold parties at this time. Lin Yanxiao followed behind the carriage, burrowing into the dirt whenever someone passed by, until they reached the city gate, Lin Yanxiao made a mark with the dark element on Fat Dudu's body, and he could know his direction through the sensing element in the dirt.
The cart stopped at the gate of the city, and the driver gave the pass to the soldiers guarding the gate with his chin raised. "Baron's Palace. He shouted haughtily.
The soldiers guarding the gate glanced at each other and waved him in, "I don't charge you tolls, but if I find out that you are using the name of the Baron's Court to make it easier for you, you can wait." ”
"How can you see that the person sitting in my car is not the second son of the baron? He pointed to the person sitting in the car and said disdainfully.
"Oh, is that the fat pig young master?" the soldiers looked at Fat Dudu curiously, and the coachman slowed down the speed of the cart to make everyone notice him, and shouted at the same time, "Give way to the prince of Bale, who has important things to do." ”
Fat Dudu hurriedly covered his face, he jumped out of the car, and scolded: "You wait for me!"
A group of children gathered around, and they noisily circled around Fat Dudu, who squeezed out of the crowd and ran in the direction of the pharmacy. The coachman shouted from behind, "Don't worry, we still have a gambling contract!"
The coachman enjoyed being surrounded in the middle, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, no matter what time of day, everyone liked to watch the excitement, and they followed behind Fat Dudu to block the door of the pharmacy. Lin Yanxiao came out of an alley, he took out a white cloak from his backpack to cover his body, and followed the crowd into the pharmacy.
"Come and entertain Ben Gongzi, I want to see your shopkeeper!" shouted as he slapped the table as soon as he entered, and he swaggered down. The worker at the pharmacy looked at him suspiciously, wondering what he was here for.
Fat Dudu urged two or three times, and the shopkeeper was late. It was a white-bearded old man who frowned when he entered the door and shouted, "Damn, who has to see me? If there is nothing important, see that I don't peel your skin!"
"Don't get angry, old shopkeeper, and see what I've brought you. Fat Dudu took out the treasure from his bosom, and he took out a hemostatic grass and put it on the table. The bright green plants are placed on the crimson tabletop, especially the branches and leaves of the plants seem to have mist flowing, and it looks beautiful.
"Hahaha, it seems that this fat pig boy is really sick, and he even takes a piece of grass as a treasure, isn't this thing everywhere?" the coachman pointed to the fat man and covered his stomach and smiled, "It seems that I won this bet - it must be me who wins, take off your clothes and run back naked." ”
Lin Yanxiao occupied the front row with her thin and short figure, and watched the play with interest. As soon as the coachman's mocking words came out, Fat Dudu sneered and did not reply, and the shopkeeper, who had been staring at the plants on the table, slapped the table and shouted, "Shut up for me, there is no place for you to talk here!"
The coachman's body shook in fright, and he saw what kind of people were waiting in the shop, mages in robes, warriors with weapons, and even a young man with an alchemist's badge. I saw that his eyes lit up, and he walked forward quickly, and said: "This is a medium-grade hemostatic grass, low-quality herbs are everywhere these days, and medium-quality herbs can be collected in the wild except for cultivation, this gentleman, have you found a place where medium-quality herbs grow?"
He patted his stomach and said with a smile: "I found a special way to get this thing, everyone in Jungle City knows about my situation, I just want to make a little money." ”
Fat Dudu's words interrupted all the thoughts of the channel that wanted to inquire about him, if someone asked him how he got the herbs now, wouldn't it be cutting off his financial route. The young alchemist rolled his eyes and said, "How many more herbs do you have?" I can get it at twice the price of the market. ”
Hearing his words, Fat Dudu's eyes lit up and asked, "How much is that?"
The alchemist's heart was indeed an uninformed fellow, and he explained: "Low-grade herbs are almost sold by catties, and each catty is about a silver coin. And medium herbs can be sold for at least fifty copper coins a plant according to their efficacy, and hemostatic grass is the most basic herb, and I can collect it for a silver coin. ”
Hearing this price, everyone was shocked, especially the coachman, he worked in the Baron's Palace, and he only had a salary of one silver coin per month, but this inconspicuous grass was worth a month's labor?
Lin Yanxiao hid in the crowd, touched his chin and said, "This thing is really valuable, it's not in vain for me to waste my time picking up beautiful picks." As a skeleton, Lin Yanxiao is simply unimpeded in the forest, except for the animals that eat bones, other animals will not care about a skeleton, including the mercenaries on the mission. Big night, who cares about what a skeleton is doing.
Lin Yanxiao didn't just get those herbs all night, the two grids in his backpack were full of hemostatic grass and redtail grass, and the ones he picked for Fat Dudu were the ugliest ones he picked, and it seems that appearance is also common in the plant world.
"Wait Lowe, I think this gentleman is coming for me. The pharmacy owner hurriedly said. Their pharmacy collects medicinal materials, and also sells medicinal materials, but they can make a lot of difference in the middle of this collection and sale, and they can usually receive forty copper coins for this quality hemostatic grass, and sell eighty copper coins, and they can earn forty copper coins in the middle.
As an alchemist, Luo Wei had a lot of dealings with the people in the pharmacy, but he knew the Tao inside, and when he saw the shopkeeper stopping him, he sneered and said, "I don't think this gentleman will be stupid enough to sell herbs to you for less than a silver coin, right? ”
"It's hard to say Luo Wei, the people in your association are more intelligent than the other, if they all steal my business like you, how can I make money in the future!" said the shopkeeper with a dark face.
It was rare for Fat Dudu to see someone arguing for himself, so he enjoyed it for a while and said, "Two gentlemen, I only have such a little herb, you don't have to grab it." ”
He poured all the herbs in his pocket on the table, and the alchemist looked at them with some distress, and said, "How can you treat these herbs so rudely, and how can different herbs be mixed together, if there are side effects, all your herbs will be destroyed!"
Fat Tutu tugged at his clothes and said, "Then you can't blame me, I don't have the money to buy extra bags for things." ”
The alchemist glanced at him with disgust, he didn't know what kind of shit he got these herbs, you must know that it costs a lot of money to cultivate these high-quality herbs, unless the local association has sufficient funds, otherwise it is still charged to the outside world, and the internal division of the association has always been unfair, if you have more, he will have less, who doesn't want to have more resources for themselves.
"I'll give you the price of one silver coin and ten copper coins for this redtail grass, and if you have its companion herbs, I can take it for the price of two silver coins. Note that I want the whole of the accompanying herbs, including the roots. Lowe said.
Fat Dudu asked suspiciously, "Companion herbs, what is that?"
Seeing that his expression didn't seem to be fake, Luo Wei wondered in his heart: "Could it be that this person is only in charge of trading on the surface, but in fact, someone else provides him with medicinal materials?"
He asked tentatively, "It's very troublesome to collect redtail grass, because his companion grass is highly poisonous and can't be touched, you can ask the person who gave you these herbs, he will probably know." Fat Dudu didn't speak, pretending to be mysterious, these herbs were all picked by skeletons, and a skeleton was afraid of any poison. His performance made Lowe confirm his guess in his heart.
Lin Yanxiao heard the price of the cage grass, and thought of the cage grass that was pulled out like a weed by himself, and his heart ached. I feel like I've thrown away 100 million!
Fat Dudu quickly completed the deal with Luo Wei, and the pharmacy owner was unhappy and didn't say anything, who made it impossible for him to collect medicine at such a high price. Luo Wei looked at the fat dudu who was carefully counting the silver coins one by one, his eyes were a little distrustful, this picture has never seen the world, how did he get the medium-quality herbs, but there is nothing to lose if he tries it, anyway, the herbs are not fake.
"If you still have herbs, you can come directly to the Alchemist Guild to find me, this is my business card, give it to the people at the reception, and they will send someone to take you to see me. Luo Wei returned to that lofty tone, and the fat dudu didn't care much about stuffing the business card, and Luo Wei was depressed when he saw it. "Where the hell is this idiot!"
"Okay, the matter of herbs is settled, and the next step is to make a bet. Fat Dudu carefully picked up the silver coins, he had made a fortune this time, and he had made more than ten silver coins in total, and he walked out of the gate and grabbed the coachman who wanted to escape.
"Almost ruined my big thing, undress me!" Fat Dudu scolded by tugging at the driver's sleeve.
"You let me go, I just said that you lose and you take off your clothes, but I didn't say how I will do if I lose!" shouted the coachman triumphantly.
Fat Dudu's squinted eyes glared, he didn't expect him to have such a hand, he looked at this person aggrievedly, he was usually cowardly, and now he didn't even have the courage to slap him.
Lin Yanxiao looked at his depressed face, and smiled in his heart: "Since you treat me as a protector, I will help you." ”
"Fireball!"
Lin Yanxiao wanted to see what effect he had of using a low-grade fireball technique under his D-level spiritual power. The fingers of his right hand snapped lightly, and with a crisp "snap", he saw that a huge fireball more than two meters high quickly condensed above the coachman's head, which burned and burned and illuminated everyone's faces red.
"Huohuohuo-"
"Help!"
"No medium or higher spells are allowed in the city, who is it!"
The moment the fireball appeared, the crowd that had just finished watching the excitement and sighed that there was big news suddenly became lively, they scattered and fled in terror, and many mages shouted.
"What a medium mage, Lao Tzu used a basic fireball technique. Lin Yanxiao didn't expect this fireball technique to be so powerful, and at the same time, he thought of his "Phoenix Nirvana", who are also fire mages, how come the high-level ones are not as powerful as the low-level ones?
"But such a big fireball, can it be smashed or not?" Lin Yanxiao looked at the fireball hanging over the coachman's head with a tangled smile, the coachman was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground, his crotch was wet, and the fat man was so frightened that he ran to the side with his head in his hands.
"Alas, it's out, don't waste your mental energy. Lin Yan smiled evilly, he moved his fingers slightly, the fireball above the coachman's head fell rapidly, at the moment when the coachman shouted, a water balloon as big as the fireball appeared above his head at the same time, this time Lin Yanxiao did not hesitate, the water balloon fell, dousing the man who suddenly burned.
"Wow-"
The air was silent, and everyone was dumbfounded to look at the man whose clothes were burned black and wet all over his body, this man was not harmed, but his clothes had been swallowed up by the sudden fire, and even his hair was burned to several pieces.
"Hahahaha" There was a loud laugh from the crowd, and everyone felt that this was a joke, or a powerful mage. Luo Wei, the alchemist in the distance, noticed this, and he hurriedly looked at Fat Dudu.
Fat Dudu rarely has an IQ on the line, he suddenly stood up and shouted: "This is the end of offending me, I now have a great backer, whoever dares to bully me in the future, this is his end!"
Everyone looked at him in disbelief, and Fat Dudu led the horse pulling the cart away in a frightened gaze. The coachman angrily covered his important position, this usually inconspicuous thing really found a backer, no, this matter must be known to Mrs.
