404. Selling dog meat on the head of a sheep
Thinking of this, the nervousness that I felt before because of Su Luo's extraordinarily serious instructions gradually disappeared, and was replaced by a full of anticipation and curiosity for the new partner.
'Master, is the new companion a spiritual plant just like us?' Fu Bao ran to Su Luo's hand, grabbed her cuffs with both hands, and looked at her expectantly.
Not only Fu Bao, but also the other elves have the same look, but Fu Bao reacts the fastest, so he has become everyone's mouth.
"Guess?" Although Su Luo didn't give an accurate answer, everyone could guess from her state that the new partner should be a spirit plant.
Of course, there is also a very small possibility that it is not a spirit plant......
Faced with the owner who is unwilling to say the answer, they can only resort to their own trick - coquettishness.
Except for Logge, who couldn't put down, and Qing Qi and Xiaoyi, who had already determined the answer in their hearts, the remaining eight elves gathered around Su Luo's hand, and they gently pulled Su Luo's sleeves in their hands, dangling around, and their tones began to gradually change.
Su Luo couldn't stand such sweet torture, and finally surrendered.
Although the elves are good-looking and have good voices, they can't help but make some strange noises as if they are deliberately funny, and Su Luo doesn't want to torture his ears anymore, so he still chooses to tell them the answer.
"Alright, alright...... I'll tell you that's it. Hearing this, these little guys cheered, and then looked at Su Luo expectantly.
"The new partner is indeed a spiritual plant." Su Luo said with a smile.
With the exact answer, everyone began to look forward to what the new spirit plant companion would look like...... Discussions range from the type of new partner (vegetables/fruits/grains/flowers, etc.), to personality, to color.
Just as they were discussing passionately, Kiyoku, who noticed that something was wrong, asked: 'A tree? ’
Su Luo glanced at Qing Qi, and then nodded slightly.
Because the other elves were in full swing of communication, they didn't notice the communication between Qing Qi and Su Luo.
This made their jaws drop when they saw their master return with a fruit tree tonight...... Of course, that's all for later.
When Qing Qi guessed that his new partner was a tree (but didn't know it was a fruit tree), Su Luo had already left with three robots and a hovercar.

Netizen 1: Have you noticed that there are more patrols around your home? Anyway, I've got more here, and it used to be three teams alternately, but now it's doubled, and there are six teams patrolling at the same time!
Netizen 2: That's right! I found out too! It's just that the people around me didn't take this to heart, so I asked them, and they all said they didn't find anything wrong.
Netizen 3: Normal, you always have to come back every few years, and the fuss can only mean that you are still young and have seen less...... It's good to get used to this kind of thing.
Netizen 4: Although I also understand that these things are cyclical, I still think that this time is different from the previous ones, anyway, I have never seen so many patrol guards before, and there were not so many patrol guards during the interstellar centennial celebration.
Netizen 5: Grapevine, fidelity! Everyone has been more leisurely recently, can go out without going out, try to stay at home, and prepare some 'self-defense' things when possible, this time it is much more serious than before...... That's all I know, everyone understands it, and I can't say more information.
……
This is already the Xingbo that Su Luo has seen who doesn't know how many thousand people incite people's emotions.
Unexpectedly, but the effort to refresh a page, this Xingbo has disappeared, if you search for the star coin ID of this 'netizen 5', then you can find that this account has been permanently banned and cancelled.
Now, anyone who knows 'riddle humanities' can get attention by saying something specious on the star network.
Even though the official has issued announcements again and again to calm everyone down, not to believe the rumors, and everything is subject to the official and military news, the panic is still spreading.
It's obviously a Zerg invasion, but it's said by everyone to be like the end of the world.
Obviously, the battle has not started yet, and even the Zerg have not taken the first step to leave their lair, but it seems that the Zerg has arrived at the door of the human race.
In such an extremely tense atmosphere, everyone began to hoard food, medicine, various daily necessities, etc., and even spent a lot of money to buy energy armor and energy weapons on the black market or various special channels.
In such a situation, logistics has become very tight, because of normal shopping and special situations of this kind of excessive consumption, and almost everyone is over-consuming, logistics must be too busy.
The Interstellar Express Center is full of orders, and there are mountains of couriers waiting to be delivered to various planets almost every day.
Many people seem to feel that they have found a 'business opportunity', and they start stockpiling goods that are in high demand, such as food, such as medicines, and then sell them at high prices......
I thought that the price of food and medicine had skyrocketed all the way through this operation.
Although the price bureau has taken action, it can only stop those transactions that appear to be on the surface.
Those who use special methods, such as to sell these in-demand items at a 'reasonable' price, some people think of the method of 'selling dog meat on the head of a sheep'.
This method is to sell a product that is already of high value, but when the buyer buys the order, the seller sends the "thing" that the buyer needs according to the buyer's "actual situation".
This is selling dog meat on the head of a sheep.
Unlike the traditional sense of 'selling dog meat on the head of a sheep', this is something that both parties know and are willing to.
There is no solution for this way of trading, after all, it is impossible for them to check whether each package is the same as the purchase shown on the purchase record.
But there is also a fatal drawback, and that is once the buyer is deceived...... For example, if the order is a piece of jewelry, but both parties agree that the buyer needs medicine, but the buyer finally receives the goods as a piece of jewelry, not the medicine that was originally negotiated - the things received are the same as the purchase record.
Although from the actual situation, the buyer was deceived into consumption, but because the transaction they made did did not comply with the regulations, the buyer has nowhere to redress the grievances.
Especially in this kind of transaction, buyers are often tricked by the seller into signing a 'no return or exchange' agreement.
Don't sign? OK!
If you don't sign it, I won't sell it!
In order to buy something, reluctance is also reluctant.
And because of this willingness, even if the things they bought are not what they want, they can't return or exchange them, and they can only suffer a loss.
