Chapter 314 - Beishang Township Agricultural Exchange Meeting (4000)

This antique shop Naoki has never seen it before, and it must have just opened a few days ago.

The door is a very heavy carved wooden door, and when you open the door, you will be greeted by an ancient rustic atmosphere.

At first glance, the store is very empty, with the bar facing the door, and rows of shelves against the wall, displaying all kinds of old antiques.

A well-dressed uncle with round-rimmed glasses and shiny hair was standing behind the bar and sweeping the dust from the side with a feather duster.

At the bar, a lion cub was lazily lying there snoring.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the uncle immediately put down the feather duster in his hand, and a beam of light shot out of his eyes: "There is a guest coming?" ”

The little lion also looked up.

"Hello, boss!" Naoki greeted them with a smile.

"What do you want to buy?" The uncle put down the feather duster, stepped forward, and asked, "Do you want to buy antique paintings for collection, or do you want to buy antique tea sets that make Si Mo Tea and Laibei Tea evolve?" I've got it all here! ”

Hearing this, Naoki was stunned, he knew that this magic tea was a Pokémon?

"Smocha?" Naoki couldn't help but ask.

The boss looked surprised: "You haven't heard of this kind of Pokémon?" ”

Naoki nodded truthfully: "I only know to come to sad tea." ”

"That's it!" The boss didn't care, and introduced with a smile: "Simo Tea, like Laibei Tea, are both Pokémon that live in tea sets, and they also need specific tea sets to evolve." ”

"However, come to think of it, there is no magic tea inhabiting the Padia region, that kind of Pokémon, but they all live in the distant Beishang Township!"

Beishang Township...... Naoki instantly understood, although he had never heard of the name of Si Mo Tea, but based on the three characters of Kitakamigo, it could be surmised that it was also a newly added Pokémon in the Vermilion DLC.

When it comes to Si Mo Tea, the boss seems to have a lot to say.

He let out a sigh, walked up to a shelf, pointed to the tea bowl that looked a little old, and said:

"Oh, this is the tea set that Si Mo Tea needs to use when it evolves!"

"It is said that they are Pokémon that were turned into Pokémon by the resentment of a tea ceremony artist who failed to reach the pinnacle of the tea ceremony before his death."

"There is a terrifying rumor of Si Mo Tea in Beishang Township [If you waste food, you will be sprinkled with matcha by Si Mo Tea, and then the essence in your body will be drained and turned into a shriveled corpse]!"

"How's that, it's scary, isn't it?" The boss asked.

Naoki: "......"

Saying this, he became more and more curious about Beishang Township.

In Naoki's mind, it is an idyllic town with developed agriculture and tourism, and is rich in red apples and rice.

What a place for a man to be a great man! How could there be something so horrible?

"It feels like it should be as rumored to be deliberately exaggerated like Laibei Tea and Horror Pot." Naoki thought to himself.

However, he didn't come here today for this purpose.

Although this antique shop has just opened, the variety of antiques on display here is very diverse.

Knights' armor full of medieval colors, ancient books full of ancient characters, and ancient clay pots used in the past......

When Naoki's gaze rests on it, the boss on the side will take the initiative to introduce:

"It was the armor worn by the knights of the kingdom during the time of the Kingdom of Pardea, and it was very well preserved, and it has been five hundred years so far, and it is still not rusty."

"These are Pokémon observation notes left by some ancient scholars during the Padian Kingdom, although the content on them is common sense to modern people, but for that ancient era, these notes are very rare and important."

"Huh? This is also a product of the time of the Padian kingdom, and it is said that the king used it to drink water. ”

“……”

Naoki stared at the clay pot like a urine jar and was silent.

At this moment, he suddenly saw an ancient treasure chest about thirty centimeters tall at the other end of the shelf, which looked to be some years old.

Naoki was immediately attracted to attention.

The boss followed him to the treasure chest: "This treasure chest, like the clay pot just now, also comes from the time of the Pardian Kingdom. ”

"More than 2,000 years ago, when the Kingdom of Pardea ruled, explorers at that time organized a huge treasure hunt, this treasure chest, which is what some explorers obtained in the expedition, the treasure inside has been taken away, and now only an empty shell remains."

"What about the price?" Naoki asked with interest.

If the treasure chest is given to the Treasure Spirit, it will be able to change the Treasure Chest form from the Walking Form to the Treasure Chest Form, and all the gold coins collected in the future can be stored in it.

Boss: "I won't hide it from you, all the treasures in this treasure chest have been taken, and now there is only an empty shell left, if you want it, take 20,000 alliance coins!" ”

20,000 Union Coins...... It's not too expensive for him, and a bottle of goat's milk earns it back.

But there is no official price of this kind of thing, it is all the preference of the person who sells it.

Naoki didn't know if he had lost or earned, so he was ready to try to cut the price.

So, Naoki began to use his few bargaining experience: "Ten thousand! ”

Boss: "......"

"You're exaggerating, even the decorations sold in the store aren't so cheap!" The boss glanced at the corner of his mouth: "What's more, this thing has existed for two thousand years, and it is still an antique worth collecting." ”

Naoki: "What fifteen? In addition to this, I can also have a long-term cooperation with you. ”

"Oh?" The boss suddenly became interested: "What long-term cooperation?" ”

Naoki had already caught a glimpse of the two ancient gold Pardeas on the shelves, and he pointed to them and said, "I want as many of these ancient coins as I have." ”

Hearing this, the boss turned his head and saw the two ancient coins he had placed on the shelf.

Those ancient coins also came from the time of the Pardian kingdom, minted by the kingdom and circulated in the market.

Some collectors in modern times will collect these ancient coins of historical significance specifically for collection.

But because most of these ancient coins are scattered, they are not very expensive on the market, and the price generally fluctuates around 50,000 alliance coins.

Compared with other antique tea sets that cost 200,000 yuan, it is far behind.

"You want that?" The boss asked.

"To tell you the truth, I met a Fortune Spirit at home not long ago, and seeing that he likes this kind of coin very much, I thought to see if I could have a good relationship with it by giving it coins." Naoki said truthfully.

"Suo Cailing?" The boss was full of surprise.

The boss was puzzled that the young man didn't look like a man who liked antiques, because he could tell from the look in his eyes.

The antiques worth a thousand dollars just now were like cabbages on the side of the road in his eyes, and he looked away after just one glance.

Hearing this, he finally understood the reason!

"Do you want to help Suo Cailing collect coins and help it evolve into a Saifu Tycoon?" The owner was shocked.

"Huh?" Naoki was also a little surprised: "Do you know this kind of Pokémon like Saifuga? ”

"Who doesn't know about Saifu in our business?" The boss explained, "Because the Fortune Spirit was born during the Kingdom two thousand years ago, their existence is inextricably linked to these antique treasures. ”

"Because the soul of wealth was born from the explorer's greed for treasure!"

"That's right......" Naoki muttered.

The boss continued, "Originally, no one knew that the Moneyling could evolve, until two hundred years ago, a collector was said to have befriended a money-seeking who was collecting coins everywhere. ”

"In order to make his beloved Fortune Hunter happy, the antique collector spent a lot of money to collect a large number of ancient gold coins for him from all over the world."

"Then, that Fortune Seeker fused with these gold coins and evolved into a Pokémon called Saifuhao!"

"Since then, some people who like Saifu have also started to learn to collect coins, but the Pokémon of Suo Cailing are so timid that they will run away when they see humans, and it is difficult for ordinary people to subdue them."

"Coupled with the fact that those coins are difficult to collect, to this day, the Padia region has not been able to produce a second Saifuman."

"Is that an exaggeration?" Hearing this, Naoki was also shocked.

He only knew that Saifu was rare, but he didn't know that Saifu was so rare.

There has only been one in 200 years......

"Of course!" The boss nodded: "I won't hide it from you, some antique shops will also sell ancient gold coins, and the price mostly fluctuates around 50,000 alliance coins." ”

"One fifty thousand, one thousand will cost fifty million alliance coins! At this price, the average person simply can't afford it! ”

"Moreover, most of the ancient gold coins that appear on the market today are from ancient ruins and tombs that some trainers have found."

"Those ancient ruins are very dangerous, although they are full of gold and silver treasures, but in order to prevent others from robbing the tombs, the owners of the tombs and ancient ruins will arrange very dangerous mechanisms and powerful Pokémon guards in the ruins after death."

"Once an intruder is sensed, those Pokémon will chase after the person with bad intentions in order to protect the tomb of their former owner.

Naoki, who just had the idea of robbing the tomb in his heart: "......"

Forget it, it's a different way, it's too unfriendly to fight and kill.

"I want these two ancient gold coins and this treasure chest." Naoki said, "If you have collected ancient gold coins in the future, you can contact me directly, and I can pay you an additional fee." ”

"Of course no problem!" The boss agreed: "But I also have one condition." ”

Naoki thought calmly, then nodded, "You say." ”

The boss looked longing: "If one day you really breed a Saifu man, you must bring it over and let me see it with my own eyes!" ”

Naoki: "Okay. ”

He left the ranch's phone number for the boss, paid for it, and returned to the ranch with the treasure chest and two coins.

As soon as Naoki got off the motorcycle lizard with the seafood he had bought in town, the few fast dragons and hackdragons from Kualong Island surrounded him, looking at the bag containing the seafood with a curious expression.

"Huh?"

Naoki opened the bag and gave them a look: "I bought the ...... from the town"

He wanted to say that he would let the dragons taste it at noon, but looking at the eyes of these guys, it was clear that it was not the first time he had seen these things.

For fast dragons living on the sea, these small fish, shrimp, small shells and so on should also be on their recipes.

The fast dragon in the distance also ran over and surrounded the bag of seafood with the part-time fast dragons.

The eyes of the hackdragons lit up, they looked at the seafood, then at Naoki, and then at Naoki, and then a look appeared on their faces.

"Whew!" Does Naoki like to eat these things too?

That way, they'll be able to catch more on their way back to Kuailong Island at night, and bring them back tomorrow morning to give them to Naoki!

Naoki didn't know what a few hackdragons and fast dragons were thinking, so he handed the bag of seafood to his sister to take care of, and prepared to keep it for steaming at noon.

And he himself went to the tavern with the treasure chest and two coins.

During the day, the tavern was empty, and a beam of sunlight shone in through the window, and the dust drifting through the air could be clearly seen in the light.

It seems that my brother's steward has just finished sweeping the floor.

Naoki looked left and right, and found no trace of Suo Cailing, but he was sure that Suo Cailing was still here, just hiding.

He didn't do anything out of his way, just put the treasure chest and two ancient gold coins in the shadow under the bar, and then said around:

"Suo Cailing, I saw a treasure chest and two coins outside today, so I brought them back and gave them to you, you will remember to come over later to see if you like it or not."

After saying that, there was silence in the air, and there was no reaction.

Naoki didn't care, and as soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left the place.

As the minutes passed, the footsteps became farther and farther away, and it was not until they could no longer be heard that Suo Cailing quietly poked his head out of the darkness.

It cautiously looked around, then turned its gaze to the large treasure chest and the two coins placed next to it.

Suo Cailing didn't run over immediately, it stared blankly at the things, and then jumped onto the bar, looking in the direction of the entrance.

Suo Cailing was very confused.

That human, why should you be so nice to it? And give it such a precious gift?

It obviously didn't do anything......

*

After leaving the tavern, Naoki went home and took care of the seafood.

After he had cleaned all the shells and conchs, it was noon.

Naoki was about to put them in the pot and steam, when he suddenly heard Mayor Thomas's voice outside.

"Is Naoki at home? Good afternoon, motoriss! Ah, so Leton? Hello to you! ”

Hearing this voice, Naoki was a little puzzled.

Hey? How did Mayor Thomas come to the ranch at this time?

He put down his work and turned to the outside: "Mayor Thomas, is there something wrong?" ”

Mayor Thomas smiled and nodded, "The town recently received an invitation. ”

"Invite?" Naoki was even more confused, and he hurriedly beckoned Mayor Thomas to come in and sit down.

The two sat down on the couch, and Mayor Thomas explained the purpose of the trip.

"That's right, last year's harvest was very good, providing a lot of fresh vegetables and crops to the rest of the Padia region, and for this reason, the town is becoming more and more famous for agricultural cultivation."

"Not long ago, the town received an invitation from Beishang Township, who wanted to have an agricultural exchange meeting with us, and specially invited an experienced farmer from the town to Beishang Township to exchange planting experience with the farmers there."

"After the unified consultation of everyone in the town, we are going to send you over to participate in the exchange meeting, so I came here today to ask if you have time."

Naoki understood, he had just heard about the horror rumors in Kitakamito from the owner of the antique shop today, and was thinking about waiting for time to go there and take a look.

Didn't expect the opportunity to come now?

Although he is not very experienced in farming, he relies on gophers to cultivate the land, mount goats to grow crops, and fast dragons to water......

But it doesn't matter, he can go over there and preach to the Thunder Crown!

Thinking of this, he straightened the horse and asked, "When?" ”

Mayor Thomas replied with a smile: "In three days, but Beishang Township is some distance from us, and we will have to take a plane to get there." ”
