Lord of Plenty
Chapter 101: Water Toad
"Is that so? Actually, before I came here, when I was in the capital, I also saw many nobles who loved to gamble on eggs. They gambled gold coins like copper coins, but I didn't see anyone really betting on a few high-level monsters. However, the young master once said that some monster eggs, which look small, are very likely to be the offspring of high-level monsters."
"Before, I was in the castle and saw Miss Betty holding such a big egg with green patterns in her hand. I don't know if it is the offspring of the legendary high-level monster. Tsk tsk, anyway, old Tate doesn't expect to raise any high-level monsters in this life, it's good enough to feast my eyes."
After saying that, he winked at [Jiang Xiaobai], almost making it clear.
"Thank you, butler, for your advice."
[Jiang Xiaobai] was overjoyed and bowed to old Tate with gratitude.
Could this be the hidden task in the castle that Boss Xu mentioned before?
I didn't expect the reward to be the clue to the high-level monster eggs!
She didn't believe it before. The boss is really the boss. His game experience is really better than that of a game novice like her.
Looking at the elf girl who ran away, Old Tate smiled and shook his head. In this way, the task entrusted by Miss Betty to him was completed.
The Egg Lotto Shop on the main street of the Jade Heart Farm was different from the bustling business when it just opened. In just one month, it has become deserted. There was not even a single sucker willing to come to the door all day.
Betty was worried because there was no business coming to the door. She looked a little listless lying on the counter. She even ate less cake at dinner time because of worry.
The business was so bad because everyone had already made it very clear that this was a black shop.
Although she thought so.
But you actually thought so, she was sad.
The most annoying thing was that the shits of the Ice Fang Mercenary Trade Group knew that she was selling Warcraft eggs in the Plenty Territory. In order to make things difficult for her, they deliberately added many Warcraft eggs that were not on the cargo list to the goods she brought.
She sold them at a very low price, one silver coin per egg, and she was trying to make a profit by selling them at a loss.
Those spineless customers naturally all ran away.
After all, who would buy a gold egg that costs one gold coin when there is a monster egg that costs one silver coin? The probability of getting a monster cub is almost the same.
If this continues, her store, the daughter of the Golden Family, will go bankrupt.
How can this be tolerated?
If the news spreads, how can she return to the Smith Family and take over the family in the future?
It is impossible to reduce the price, as it concerns the dignity of the merchants, but she has other ways to save the business.
But old Kili, I will remember you!
Don't think that I dare not touch you because that bastard is backing you up.
If I can't deal with you, can I deal with the other people in your Ice Fang Mercenary Group? Humph.
"Dingling~"
The opening of the wooden door activated the colorful eggshell wind chimes hanging on the door, and the wind chimes made a pleasant sound like agate colliding with each other.
"Welcome, is there anything this guest needs?"
Betty, who was originally listless, immediately became energetic and put on a bright smile on her face.
The daughter of the Smith family is flexible!
"Our store mainly deals in gambling eggs and its subsequent services. Please rest assured that the quality of the monster eggs sold in our store is guaranteed. They are definitely not comparable to those street stalls that sell for one silver coin each. What do you want to choose? I will help you get it."
"Let me take a look first."
Seeing that the elf girl, who was a head taller than her, took a look at the monster eggs placed on the counter and landed on the high-level dragon egg of the wood system, Betty couldn't help but secretly said, here it comes.
In doing business, what is more important than a "trustee"?
It must be more "trustees"!
However, if it was just a simple negotiation and then cheating, that method was too low and it would be easy for people to find out and ask for the money later, so she would not bother to do it.
A truly qualified "shill" should not even know that she is a "shill".
She did all the work of the "shill" without hesitation, and she had to be extremely confident that she was definitely not a "shill".
Only in this way can people be convinced, the business of the store can be better, and there will be no subsequent troubles.
"You like this monster egg, right? Customers have good taste. I will take it out for you right away."
After hesitating for a while, [Jiang Xiaobai] pointed to a monster egg that was casually placed on a mat in the corner. It was a sky-blue color and the size of a human head.
"Please take this one out for me to see."
Betty raised her eyebrows. The sky-blue egg was also a monster egg. It was not of a high rank. It was just a primary monster egg, but it was the only two monster eggs she had placed outside.
This was not in the script she wrote.
Coincidence?
Or...
Looking at the two monster eggs, one large and one small, in front of her, [Jiang Xiaobai] couldn't help but hesitate. Some strange intuition told her that these two gambling eggs seemed to be quite good. After thinking about it, [Jiang Xiaobai] gritted her teeth and simply bought both gambling eggs.
The money she earned these days was just enough to buy one gambling egg, and the gambling egg shop also had a rule that each player could buy an egg on credit first, which was just enough to put both gambling eggs in her pocket.
"Help me hatch this big gambling egg first, and I'll take the small one back and hatch it slowly."
After carefully observing the other party's subtle expression and confirming that the other party really had no money, and was not a scheming person, Betty smiled and said:
"You are the first customer of our store today. The hatching liquid of another gambling egg is just a friend. If you can bet on good goods, please help promote our store outside."
What are you waiting for? Still hatching slowly?
This lady will attract all customers back now, and it would be best if all the gambling eggs of the Bingya Merchant Group can be smashed in my hands.
Aren't you losing money to gain publicity and deliberately disgusting me? I will make you run in vain and see how long you can last.
The real business war is very cruel.
With the crisp sound of the two monster cubs breaking their shells, Betty shouted at the top of her voice, wishing that the whole Fengrao Territory would know about the happy event happening in the store.
"Congratulations, customer. You have a great eye. A high-level wood dragon, the Flower-faced Scythe Dragon, and a low-level water monster, the Washing Water Toad."
"The Flower-faced Scythe Dragon is a descendant of the green dragon. It looks like a blooming flower. Its adult size is not very large, but it is a jungle death god as famous as the Skeleton Demon Spider. It is an extremely powerful dragon beast. Our store is willing to pay 200 gold coins for the recycling of this monster cub."
Two hundred gold coins!
[Jiang Xiaobai] took a breath of cold air when he heard this.
Isn't this equivalent to the reward for a hidden achievement?
"The Washing Water Toad, this kind of magic beast is also very famous in the kingdom. The biggest reason is that the eggs of this magic beast are very similar to the eggs of the Frost Wing Dragon, and it has also caused a lot of jokes. Ahem, I'm a bit off topic. As for its strength, it is only ordinary among low-level magic beasts, but this magic beast has the characteristic of "washing water", which can purify water sources and is very popular in some places where water resources are scarce. This magic beast cub is willing to pay six gold coins for recycling."
"Here I suggest that you keep the high-level dragon beast and sell the low-level magic beast to our store. In this way, you can not only pay off all your debts at one time, but also have surplus money to buy some magic beast supplies such as feed. Have you decided what to do?"
Jiang Xiaobai, who became rich overnight and felt like he was injected with chicken blood, felt that his thoughts were very clear now, and he had never been so clear before.
"No, I won't sell either of these two magic beasts."
The Flower-faced Scythe Dragon is a high-level magic beast, and there is only one in the whole server. Whoever sells it is a fool.
You should know that all the items sold by players to the system store are only half of the original value of the item, which means that this dragon beast is worth at least 400 gold coins.
With the average price of three yuan for a copper coin in the pioneer group, how much does this dragon beast cost at once?
More than 1,200W!!!
The poor people in the group can't afford it together!
Of course, this price is definitely very high, it's all bubble, but [Jiang Xiaobai] estimates that even if the game is officially launched in the future, a high-level monster will cost at least hundreds of thousands of red notes to buy.
After all, a gambling egg costs 10,000, and the probability of gambling a monster is only one in 20, which is very black.
As for the other low-level monster she gambled, the water-washing toad, it can indeed be sold to the gambling egg store to get some money back, but her daily tasks now are related to water and catching aquatic products.
How much help can a water-based monster provide?
More importantly, she had received a piece of gossip from the Lord of God that no one knew about, that is, the Lord was studying the improvement of aquatic product quality, and it seemed that he would promote aquaculture in the territory.
In this way, there will be no shortage of tasks related to "water" in the future.
The Washing Water Toad with the "washing water" characteristic may help her more than the high-level Dragonborn in the coming days.
After all, the higher the level of the magic beast, the longer the breeding cycle will be.
In the early stage, the Washing Water Toad helped her work and earn money, and earned feed money for the high-level Dragonborn. When the Dragonborn grew up, she and the Washing Water Toad could retire gloriously and enjoy their lives.
Seeing this, Betty did not persuade her anymore. She didn't really think much of a low-level magic beast.
Anyway, the matter had been roughly played out according to her script, and the purpose had been achieved. The rest were just trivial matters.
When [Jiang Xiaobai] was about to leave the gambling egg shop, Betty suddenly took out two gambling eggs from the box and called her.
"Which of these two gambling eggs do you think is better?"
"This one." [Jiang Xiaobai] pointed to the gambling egg on the right and said uncertainly.
Betty blinked and smiled:
"It's okay, you can go."
She really has some talent as a tamer.
Although that bastard said that if he saw someone with talent and liked them, he could teach them a few tricks to prevent the inheritance of tamers from being completely cut off in the Dansu Kingdom.
But why should I listen to him?
I won't teach!
