Chapter 296: Weights and Measures

The Fire Demon King is gone, and the portal that appeared out of thin air disappears completely.

Zhang Jichuan had a premonition in his heart, he should not come back, and in the glimpse just now, he saw the place called 'Boundary', which was a place filled with gunsmoke and war, and the stars and broken corpses covered the sky......

On the Bloody Plateau, the blood waves that covered the sky and the sun regained calm, and the blood-sucking emperor who had not yet awakened did not know where he went, and the peace between heaven and earth was restored, only the trembling rock demons in the criss-crossed magma proved that everything just now was not an illusion......

Zhang Jichuan was about to fly back to Yujing University, but at this moment, a cascading call sounded in his ears, "Mr. Siliang, Mr. Siliang, Mr. Siliang......

……

A dimly lit space in the same boat.

As soon as Zhang Jichuanfu came in, he heard Ashina's relieved voice, "Great, my friend, you are still alive, but you are worried about Ashina's death......"

"Thank you, Ashina." Zhang Jichuan turned his head and thanked sincerely, "I'm sorry for you this time." ”

"No trouble, no trouble...... Ashina waved his hand, and said in an excited tone, "Ashina has long wanted to fight with him again, but I'm afraid that only Ashina can't beat him......

"Also, the wine in your Guyue Kingdom Palace is too good, isn't it......?"

Zhang Jichuan smiled, Ashina likes to drink, he knew after the first battle with the King of Fire Demons, when he was taken to a camp by Teacher Rogini, Ashina ordered a large vat of wine and cow drinks without saying a word......

He nodded and said, "If you like it, I'll find a way to get some for you in the future." ”

"Really?" Ashina's eyes lit up, and he nodded frantically like a chicken pecking rice (a big chicken pecking rice), "I like it, I like it, Ashina likes it."

"My friend, don't you know, your human wine is really too expensive, and Ashina has to spend 'one bone' of goods to change a vat."

Zhang Jichuan blinked, "A bone? ”

Ashina: "That's right, a bone! ”

Zhang Jichuan was stunned: "What is a bone?" ”

Ashina: "Isn't a bone a bone?" ”

Zhang Jichuan "......"

The two stared at each other with big eyes, and Zhang Jichuan was quickly defeated.

I'm also crazy, and I actually expect Ashina to explain it clearly...... He sighed and looked at Lady Noris on the throne with a full sigh.

Noris smiled happily and explained, "Mr. Four Taels, 'bone' is the unique unit of measurement of the giants, the same as the 'shell' of the Sea Clan, oh yes, and the 'leaf' of the goblins, but now the goblins have given up the unit of measurement of 'leaf'. ”

Unit of Measure...... Zhang Jichuan was surprised, "I thought that weights and measures had been unified a long time ago, isn't this all the Internet era?" How inconvenient it is to use each other! ”

"This ......" Ms. Nonris's tone was suddenly a little embarrassed, and she glanced at Ashina with some humility.

Ashina didn't know ......

Zhang Jichuan knew that there was something going on here, and his mentality of not thinking it was a big deal when he saw the excitement was exposed, and he encouraged, "Ms. Nonris, talk about it carefully." ”

Mr. Siliang still has this kind of bad taste...... Noris complained secretly and began to explain, "It's all about profit......

"In the early days, more than a thousand years ago, when human merchants traded with foreign races, they found that their units of measurement were unique, but also very ...... Rough.

"For example, the bone of the giant clan refers to the amount of cargo that can be bound on a huge beast bone......"

Zhang Jichuan looked at Ashina, who nodded again and again, "That's the ......"

This is also too imprecise...... Zhang Jichuan suddenly realized.

Noris confirmed his suspicions, continuing, "However, there is no strict rule for the giants, such as how big a beast bone is? For example, what should be the price of animal skins and animal teeth? How should rare medicinal herbs be priced? And so on and so forth......

"The giants don't care about this, they just tie the collected goods to the bones, and then they carry the bones to trade with the human merchants......"

The rest of the matter, Noris can guess without saying that Zhang Jichuan can guess it......

With the profit-seeking characteristics of merchants, when they find out that the giants lack this tendon, they will definitely try their best to fool them, whether the animal bones are tied to animal skins, animal teeth or medicinal materials, all according to the animal skin, whether it is a large bone or a small bone, all according to the smallest animal bone......

Noris confirmed this, and continued, "Later, around the nine hundred years of the transcendental calendar, many technological transcendent items were unearthed, and human beings were connected through the Internet, and the weights and measures between countries were unified at that time, but in order to maintain profits, no one reminded the giants and the sea tribe......

"The Giants, the Sea Clan, and the humans are not very close, so they have been kept in the dark......

"On the contrary, the elves, as they gradually moved from the mountains to the human city, understood how much the previous trade had suffered, so they gave up the unit of measurement 'leaf'......"

Lay down in a big groove...... After listening to this, Zhang Jichuan's heart was full of slots, who would have thought that this kind of thing could happen in the Internet era......

He looked at Ashina with some sympathy.

Noris also looked at Ashina with some weakness.

The latter looked dazed: "What do you think I'm doing?" ”

The corners of Zhang Jichuan's mouth twitched, "It's okay, it's good if you're happy." ”

"As long as there is good wine, Ashi will be happy." Ashina said with a smile.

It's not for nothing that giants can be deceived for so long...... Noris holds her forehead.

"By the way, Ashina, you're still in Yujing, right?" Zhang Jichuan suddenly said, "Please tell Director Darcy that I will go back to school in a while." ”

"Oops." Ashina listened and slapped his head, "Ashina almost forgot that Darcy was looking for you everywhere." That's why Ashina asked Lady Noris to call you......"

"That's ......" Zhang Jichuan nodded, when he went out of the city to fight the King of Fire Demons, he mentioned to Director Darcy that Ashi would be there in a while, so that Director Darcy could see Ashina preparing to leave the city.

With Director Darcy's wisdom, he must have thought that there was a special connection between him and Ashina......

He said again, "Then you tell the director, so that he doesn't have to worry, I had an accident here, but it's fine." ”

Ashina: "Oh oh ......"

……

"Mr. Siliang, Mr. Giant Wang......" After Zhang Jichuan finished speaking, Noris spoke, "Just now, a new Upper Third Grade Transcendent Creature was born, you all sensed it, right?" ”

"Uh-huh." Ashina nodded and said indignantly, "Isn't it just a top three grade, Ashina will break through sooner or later, as for those guys, they won't drink with me all of a sudden." ”

As for it, very much...... Zhang Jichuan complained in his heart.

"Do you have any clues, do you know who this newly born Upper Grade Transcendent creature is?" Noris asked curiously.

Ashina shook his head like a rattle and said, "I don't know." ”

"I know." Zhang Jichuan opened his mouth and immediately attracted the eyes of Nonis and Ashina.

"Mr. Four-tael?" Noris was pleasantly surprised, she was just asking casually, but she didn't expect that there would really be a clue.

"It's quite mysterious." Zhang Jichuan nodded affirmatively, thought for a while, and said, "That's it, Ms. Nonris, you might as well call Ms. White Night, Mr. Black Crow, and Mr. Qingtian together, there are some details that I need everyone to staff together."

"By the way, I also want to know if Mr. Qingtian is safe."

Nonris's eyes lit up, she nodded, and began to call out to the other three members of the boat.

Ashina took the opportunity to leave the same boat space to help Zhang Jichuan report safety......

……

Soon after, as Yuan Xiao was the last to come to the same boat space, the members of the same boat club gathered again.

"A new top-grade creature has been born, do you know?" Without saying hello, Lady White Night couldn't wait to say yes.

"Got it." The black crow nodded, with three points of doubt, "I don't know who filled the gap of three hundred years without a third-grade transcendent creature." ”

"It's the Fire Demon King!" Zhang Jichuan opened his mouth and directly threw out a bombshell.

"What?"

"What?"

Two shocked voices sounded at the same time, one was Yuan Xiao and the other was Ashina.

Yuan Xiao, who was a little sluggish, raised his voice, "Teacher Zhang Jichuan, don't be joking, okay, the King of the Flame Demon has been killed outside Yujing City." ”

"yes." Ashina said angrily, "Ashina personally confirmed." ”

"Mr. Siliang, you're not joking, are you?" Lady White Night said incredulously, "I've seen the announcement issued by the Ancient Moon Kingdom, the Fire Demon King has fallen!" ”

"yes, I saw that too." Nonis said.

"It seems that Mr. Siliang knows some secrets?" Mr. Crow raised an eyebrow.

"There is indeed a fire demon king who died outside the city of Yujing, this is true, but ......" Facing the doubts of the members, Zhang Jichuan did not sell it, and said directly, "It should just be a clone of him, his body, has absorbed the power of the harvested soul and has been promoted to a third-grade transcendent creature." ”

Clones ...... Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, all of them are shocked.

"Mommy." Ashina couldn't help but get goosebumps, "There are two Fire Demon Kings? Is that so hard? ”

"It's hard." Zhang Jichuan looked at him and asked, "Ashina, after you activated the 'Flame Demon Sword of Surtr' to become the Flame Master, did you have an extraordinary ability that could control the fire of emotions?" ”

"Well, I didn't pay attention to it." Ashina was stunned for a moment and recalled, "It seems to be there." ”

"Can the Flame Juggernaut control the Flame of Emotions?" The other four were horrified.

"That's it......" Zhang Jichuan nodded, "He has already shown mercy to his subordinates, otherwise Ashina will only be afraid that Yujing will become a dead city before you come......"

Hiss......

Everyone was chilled by what Zhang Jichuan said.

"Wait!" Yuan Xiao suddenly asked, "Teacher Zhang Jichuan, how do you know about this?" ”
