Chapter 42 Let you catch green caterpillars to make money, you catch more than a hundred at a time? (below)
"I accidentally encountered a colony of green caterpillars in the forest with the green caterpillars, and then after some contact, the green caterpillars were willing to go to the green caterpillar breeding base in Qingxi Village, so they brought them back."
Mark replied.
He had already figured out the phrase.
He didn't want to deceive Third Uncle Qian, who had always taken good care of him, and he didn't want to expose the territory of the green caterpillar swarm for the time being, so while telling the truth, he hid some content.
Old man Qian glanced at the more than 100 green caterpillars in the courtyard, and then at Mark's green caterpillars, and suddenly thought of something, revealing a sudden look.
Old man Qian said thoughtfully: "Although the way green caterpillars inhabit the forest is scattered, sometimes some green caterpillars gather together.
Your green caterpillar is tall and strong, and it should be recognized by these elves as the leader, so voluntarily follow your green caterpillar to Qingxi Village, but this probability is not high, and it is estimated that it may not succeed once in a hundred times, you are really lucky......"
Mark nodded slightly.
In fact, Uncle Qian's guess was not too bad.
Third Uncle Qian just misestimated the number of green caterpillar swarms, thinking that there were only more than a hundred green caterpillar swarms, and guessed the position of green caterpillars wrongly, but there was basically no difference other than that.
His green caterpillar is not recognized as the leader of the green caterpillars, but as the leader of the guard.
As his green caterpillars continue to practice in the green caterpillar territory, because of the change in breath, some green caterpillars mistakenly think that his green caterpillars are of the same kind and do not attack, and because of the tall size of the green caterpillars, they will also regard them as the leader guards.
The more than 100 green caterpillars he brought this time are among the diehards.
It is also mistaken for the green caterpillar as the leader of the guard, some of the green caterpillars can repent under the instructions of the leader of the green caterpillars, and there are hundreds of green caterpillars, even if the leader of the green caterpillars explains, they are still stupid and can't tell the situation, always thinking that his green caterpillars are the leader guards, and then paddling in the actual combat exercise.
This time, Mark brought back the more than 100 green caterpillars in the village, which were a slightly weaker part of these diehards, and had already obtained the consent of the leader of the green caterpillars.
The green caterpillars that live in the Cheongggye Forest face a variety of threats at all times, and these weak green caterpillars are more likely to be targeted by bird predators.
Bringing these green caterpillars to the green caterpillar breeding base in Qingxi Village, where they don't have to worry about eating and drinking, is a win-win situation in some ways.
He can earn a small amount of money, and these green caterpillars can also live a stable life.
In addition, it will also play a role in paving the way for his green caterpillar to become the leader of the breeding base in the future.
Mark was still thinking about it, and Old Man Qian had already walked over to the green caterpillar in the yard.
Compared to the fact that they were already familiar with Mark, the green caterpillars in the yard were obviously wary of Old Man Qian.
Seeing Old Man Qian approaching, most of the green caterpillars kept retreating, and two of them even had a stress reaction, arching their bodies as if they had blown up their hair.
If Old Man Qian continues to get closer, the two green caterpillars will spray stinky liquid at Old Man Qian as if they were dealing with natural predators of birds.
However, it is not the first time that Old Man Qian has faced this situation.
I saw that he first took out a handful of powder and sprinkled it around his body to remove his human smell, and then took out a piece of feed that looked like a black ham sausage and handed it to the green caterpillar nearby.
Most of the green caterpillars refused the food handed by strangers, but as one of the bold green caterpillars approached to take a bite, the other green caterpillars quickly came over, and it didn't take long for them to rush to eat the food in the old man's hand.
"The green caterpillar is a docile elf, and has a strong herd nature, if you just bring back a few green caterpillars, it is not very easy to deal with, but so many green caterpillars, it is much easier."
Old man Qian explained with a smile as he touched and pressed the green caterpillar that came to his neighborhood with his palm.
"It's not bad that you brought these green caterpillars this time, one can be sold for about 60 yuan, but after all, you brought so much at one time, so I will call the shots and give you 62 yuan, and these green caterpillars can be sold for about 7,000 yuan."
Mark raised his eyebrows slightly, "Can it be sold for 62 yuan?" ”
Old man Qian frowned slightly: "I have specially subsidized you for this price, you kid don't know what to do." ”
Mark hurriedly explained: "Third uncle, you misunderstood, I just think the price is a bit high, didn't you say that according to the quality of green caterpillars, a green caterpillar can be exchanged for 35 to 100 yuan, these green caterpillars should be relatively small." ”
Old man Qian suddenly said: "This is what you don't know, although the size of these green caterpillars you brought is a little smaller, but the quality and quantity of the silk threads spit out by the green caterpillars does not depend entirely on the body type, if the feed you bring these green caterpillars is enough, the silk threads spit out should not be bad." ”
Mark showed a sudden expression, and the green caterpillar on the side directly used [Silk] on the ground near Old Man Qian.
After learning from the leader of the green caterpillar in the past few days, the green caterpillar's [silk] has made some progress.
It is not possible to spit out the net directly like the leader of the green caterpillar, but it is already possible to spit out two silk threads at once.
Looking at the appearance of the green caterpillar trying to show himself, the old man Qian smiled: "Not bad, the silk thread you spit out is better than all of them, it is estimated that it can be sold for 200, no, 250 yuan is fine, then you will go to the green caterpillar breeding base with these green caterpillars tomorrow to spit silk on time every day, I will give you good food and drink every day, you will live at ease in the green caterpillar breeding base, and your master will save time to train you......"
With Old Man Qian's words, the green caterpillar was excited at first, but soon realized something, his eyes showed some confusion, and he looked at Mark with a pleading gaze.
Mark shook his head helplessly, rubbed the head of the green caterpillar and said, "The third uncle teased you, how could you let you stay alone in the green caterpillar breeding base." ”
Hearing Mark's words, the green caterpillar breathed a sigh of relief, just now it almost thought that it was going to part with Mark.
Old man Qian also touched the head of the green caterpillar, and then turned his head to look at Mark: "Speaking of which, your green caterpillar has grown again, is it because you ate those orange fruits?" ”
Mark didn't completely hide it, took out two grapefruit fruits from his pocket and said, "Actually, it's not just orange orange fruit, my green caterpillar also eats this tree fruit." ”
Old man Qian said with a pale face: "Wen Yuguo? ”
Mark bowed his head and said: "Well, I saw its introduction in the "Encyclopedia of Elves of the Kingdom of Xia (IV)", it should be this kind of tree fruit, the Wenyu fruit tree I found still has some fruits, these two are for you, after all, you have been taking great care of me during this time." ”
Old man Qian looked at Mark for a while with a complicated expression, "Give it to me?" Do you know the value of this tree fruit? ”
Mark shook his head.
"Ten thousand." Looking at Mark's expression that didn't care very much, Old Man Qian continued: "10,000 pieces, and there is no market, unlike orange orange fruits, the artificial cultivation of Wen Pomelo Fruit in the Xia Kingdom has never been successful, in fact, 10,000 is just the official price, some private transactions, the price of Wen Pomelo Fruit is even higher, are you sure you want to give me both tree fruits?" ”
"Hmm."
Looking at Mark's unhesitating expression, Old Man Qian's expression showed a hint of relief and a hint of helplessness.
Old man Qian finally shook his head and sighed: "You kid, although you have opened your mind, but you still lack some experience in some aspects, remember, the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, and if something like that happens in the future, no one should tell you, not even me, by the way, you didn't tell anyone about Wen Yuguo, right?" ”
"Nope."
Old man Qian bowed his head and said: "That's good, rot the matter of the pomelo fruit tree in your stomach, don't tell anyone, the value of the pomelo fruit tree is too great, it is definitely not something that a little ghost like you can bear, the pomelo fruit you usually pick should be disposed of immediately, if you see a stranger near the pomelo fruit tree, you must pay attention to hide it, don't come forward."
As for these two grapefruit fruits, leave it to me to deal with, you can almost replace your green caterpillar with a [Power Grid] move learner, although the [Power Grid] move can also be learned after the evolution of the green caterpillar, but it is still easier to learn during the green caterpillar period, and the effect is better. ”
"Third uncle, in fact, ......"
Old man Qian waved his hand to interrupt Mark, who wanted to refuse, and then changed his words and said: "It's not a matter for these green caterpillars to be placed in the yard like this, the moon chrysanthemum seedlings I planted by the wall are about to be gnawed bald by them, let's transport these green caterpillars to the breeding base at night......"
