Domesticate the hamster monsters of this forest?

This was a difficult decision for the goblins to understand.

In their opinion, the big hamsters could not be eaten, and they needed to feed them and consume almost half the food of the village, so it was better to release them back into the forest than to domesticate them.

"What did you use to trade with the human caravans?"

"The forests contain all kinds of herbs and materials for their magical powers, as well as loot from the Abyssal Caverns." The old goblin village chief replied with a wry smile, "But the products of magic in the forest are extremely difficult to find, and many times the people of the village have to risk a lot to go to the caves......"

For this small village of no more than three hundred goblins, many of the necessities of life that were not self-sufficient were replenished by the occasional caravan that came to trade in the forest.

Before Shi Junjun traveled through the other world, the entire village had not collected materials that could trade materials with human caravans for more than a year, and the old goblin village chief would not have let the better children of the younger generation try their luck in the abyss cave.

As the leader of this small, almost isolated village, the old goblin village chief had always been cautious about contact with strange humans, and Shi Junjun was the only exception, not only because she had saved her only child, but also because he felt a strange temperament from this young human girl who was very different from those treacherous human merchants.

"What if domesticating those hamster monsters can give you access to materials that will stabilize trade with human caravans?" Shi Junjun smiled and said.

As she spoke, she took out the clothes she had seized from the luggage of the nobleman from another world, it was a shirt with good texture and exquisite workmanship, and judging from the previous storage method, it seemed to be a very cherished clothing from the previous owner.

"The clothes are made of the same material as the hair on the big hamsters." The girl picked up the shirt in one hand and the fat hamster with the other, "And even for a nobleman like him, it is not an ordinary color, and there is only one piece of clothing of this material in the carry-on luggage of that color embryo." ”

"Domesticate these big hamsters, regularly trim and collect their hair, rough process them, or sell them directly as raw materials......"

"There isn't so much food in the village....... "Broccoli scratches her head and disagrees.

"I'll take care of the food during this time." Shi Junjun replied helplessly, "After a few months of harvest, you will almost have enough food to raise hamsters." ”

On the premise of not threatening the safety of the goblin village as much as possible, instead of letting these hamsters go back to the forest to eat buffet in the experimental field, it is better to keep them in captivity for the village to develop animal husbandry.

Broccoli raised her hands in favor of the pros and cons after she stated the pros and cons, the old goblin village chief nodded in approval of the project, and none of the rest of the greenskins objected.

These otherworldly hamsters grow their hair quickly, according to goblins, at a rate of about every two months in the wild, and regular pruning does not harm their health.

They do not show any discomfort or any attempt to escape after being kept in captivity, as long as they are fed enough food for these hamsters, they are good people who only know how to eat, sleep and sleep.

But enough food is needed......

"You can't always let your benefactor suffer like this." The old goblin village chief pondered for a moment and then took out a small cloth bag, "I think you humans will like this,......"

"So much?!" Shao Wei looked at the number sent by Shi Junjun on the screen and was dumbfounded, "Are you raising hamsters or pigs?" ”

Each of the 43 hamsters needs to consume at least one kilogram of food per day, and it is conservatively estimated that no less than 50 kilograms of grain must be prepared every day to feed these small golden balls of flesh, which are becoming more and more rounded.

"That pocket portal can hold a kilogram at most, which means that I have to transport at least dozens of times a day to you just for fodder?"

The corners of Shao Wei's mouth, who had calculated the approximate number after a short time, twitched slightly, "It's nothing to transport dozens of troubles, and the wholesale can be cheaper if the demand is large, it's just a matter ......of capital."

He is now just a college student with little source of income, and he has spent almost all the savings he had saved as a tutor during this time, and unless he is the most unwilling to reach out to the party, the remaining pitiful living expenses to eat instant noodles may not last until the end of the month.

"Look what's in your pocket." The girl sitting cross-legged on the hay mat blinked, revealing a fox-like sly look.

"Something from another world? I'm afraid I may not be able to recognize it here. Shao Wei said as he put his hand into his coat pocket, and when he saw the small piece of heavy gold in his palm, he instantly stammered:

"This, this, this—"

"Yes, you read that right, it's gold." Shi Junjun sighed, "There's no more, the whole village is just like this, originally they could only use it to exchange materials with the human caravan when they really had no choice, probably because we helped the village do a lot of things during this time, so we gave it to us." ”

Gold in the other world also exists as a general equivalent, and she was really excited for a while when she saw the goblin village chief touch the gold, after all, this isolated goblin village actually has such a large piece of natural gold, which may largely mean that there is more gold and even ore veins nearby......

But then the goblins' questioning poured cold water on her head, and the green-skinned dwarfs who usually went out to collect had never noticed anything that should be very conspicuous.

The undying Shi Junjun searched around the village for several hours, but when he was exhausted, he could not find a single grain of gold dust.

As it stands, the goblin's acquisition of the gold is a highly unlikely event, and she can only admit, with frustration, that there are two possibilities:

Either there was no gold in the forest, or there was no deposit of mine that she and the village could not mine with their current level of technology.

"It weighs about a pound." Shao Wei checked the weight in his hand, "According to the current gold price, even if there is one-fifth of the impurities in this piece, it can be worth about ......."

"Two hundred thousand."

Two hundred thousand.

Two hundred thousand.

Two hundred thousand.

This number, which seems to have some kind of magical power, made the two people in different worlds lose their minds for a while, or Shi Junjun came back to his senses first and pouted:

"It won't be long before we graduate and work, and after we sell the gold, you can only take what you spent before, and the rest will still have to be used in which village—"

"Uh-huh." After hesitating for a moment, Shao Wei still said what was in his heart, "So since you already know that this otherworldly village can't find a way to come back, how long do you plan to stay?" ”

Shi Junjun pursed her lips and replied: "The village chief said that a large area north of the forest is the fief of the nobles of the color embryo in the other world, and it is not rational to ask for help from strange humans, and it will take at least three months before there will be a human caravan that has been here before passing by." ”

"Are those people reliable?" Hearing these words, Shao Wei frowned.

"According to the village chief, most of them are insatiable guys." The girl shrugged, "I remember how much the glass you bought last time, seven or eight?" Just prepare a glass. ”

"Uh...... Good. ”

"So now you hurry up and buy some hamster food in the neighborhood first." Hearing a noise not far away, Shi Junjun stood up from the straw mat in a hurry, "Trouble hurry up, those hamsters are going to rebel—"

It was indeed a rebellion, and the hamster masters, who had eaten and drunk enough to have everything to worry about, finally couldn't bear it anymore after being suddenly cut off for a long time, and after screaming loudly and protesting to no avail, they began to try to bite open the simple cages made of hardwood by the goblins with their teeth.

Fortunately, the green-skinned dwarfs who stayed nearby reacted quickly, and when the hamsters were about to bite off a railing, they chased them away and reinforced the broken area with wooden nails, vines, and branches.

However, this is only a palliative treatment, and the rattan hamsters soon realize that the goblins don't dare to really be cruel to them, so after a short retreat, they re-squeeze to the railing to continue their escape.

One is demolished, the other is repaired, and no matter how fast it is repaired, it will not be long before these big hamsters can successfully escape from prison en masse, and according to their recent memories, they will rush back to Shi Junjun's otherworldly experimental field to continue eating buffet.

Seeing that there was already a hamster squeezing out half of its body, the broccoli who was next to it hurriedly reached out and pressed its head and pushed it back.

Rise up, push back, head up again, push back again.

I don't know how many times the cycle goes on and on, and when the broccoli arm was almost out of force and was about to grit her teeth and press the hamster's head back, Shi Junjun finally came with a wooden barrel with rough workmanship that had not even been peeled off the bark, and poured all the contents into the giant hamster cage.

Faced with the huge amount of food falling from the sky, the hamsters, who had little interest in gnawing on the hardwood railing, gave up the action and scrambled to bury their heads in the pile of food that the girl poured into and munch.

The surrounding green-skinned dwarfs quickly repaired the improvised cage that had leaked on all sides, and it was much less sturdy than the original but harmless, as long as the hamster cage was full of food and drink, there would never be any yearning for the superfluous attribute of freedom.

Broccoli sat on the ground panting heavily, and Junjun was no better when she came in a hurry.

Goblins who don't know how to weave baskets use whole logs to make barrels, and they only emptied half of the volume, so you can imagine how heavy it would be to hold food with this thing.

Fortunately, it came in time, otherwise it would have taken a lot of time to catch these daring escapees one by one.

The green-skinned dwarfs in the forest continue to be busy.
