Chapter 36 Commodities at the Trading Post
After careful inspection and identification, the mushroom-eating lizard was sold for 600 crystal coins.
Excluding the 2000 he just used to acquire [Mushroom Poison Antibodies], Li Pu still has 1600 crystal coins left.
What surprised Li Pu was that such a big mushroom-eating lizard was not as valuable as those night spiders.
For this reason, Mr. Tu even answered his doubts specifically.
There are two main reasons why night spiders are more expensive than mushroom lizards.
The first point is that night spiders play a relatively important role in certain research projects because of their ability to emit light and their physique, which means that they are of great value in experimental research.
This is something that most F-level monsters don't have.
An ordinary living F-level monster can probably be sold for 2 to 30 crystal coins.
As for the second point, it is equally important.
That is these night spiders, they are alive.
This is also the biggest difference between night spiders and mushroom-eating lizards.
If it is a living and completely healthy mushroom-eating lizard, the school can give it a price of 5,000. After all, it is a D-class monster.
If you go one step further and eat baby mushroom lizards, they can be sold for starting at 30,000.
This is because the level growth of wild monsters is far inferior to that of summoned monsters. For example, monsters such as mushroom-eating lizards that can grow to level 4 have basically lived for 6 to 7 years and are about to enter the mature stage.
Why the price of cubs is so expensive is of course because it involves one of the ways to obtain summoned beasts, taming.
Taming refers to directly taming real-life monsters through non-summoning methods, and then transforming them into summoned monsters through contracting.
In this way, the cubs have a higher success rate in contracting and have greater potential.
In short, Li Pu's mushroom-eating lizard can be exchanged for 600 crystal coins, which is already very good.
Because the maximum price for a mushroom-eating lizard corpse of this level is only 800 crystal coins.
But tonight's experience gave Li Pu new ideas.
Selling Warcraft might be a very profitable thing.
Especially for monsters like the Night Spider, it is easy to buy in large quantities and the average price is attractive.
If he could catch a few dozen of them every night, he felt like he wouldn't have to worry about the crystal coins at all.
However, the truth is cruel. Mr. Tu may have noticed his thoughts and directly poured cold water on him.
The reason why Li Pu was able to catch so many night spiders tonight was just pure luck.
If it were replaced by an ordinary monster corpse, it wouldn't attract so many night spiders at all.
As a rare D-level monster in the southern forest, eating the meat of the mushroom lizard can of course absorb the night spider.
If you want to replicate the same scene again, you must prepare a large monster corpse that is at least E-level and not inferior in size to the mushroom-eating lizard.
This is undoubtedly a very difficult thing for Li Pu.
Thanks to the fact that the mushroom-eating lizard is a lone wolf monster and doesn't have any special methods.
Otherwise, regardless of whether he can encounter problems again, even if he encounters them, he may not be able to overcome them.
"Since you're here now, would you like to take a look at our products here?"
After explaining everything, Mr. Tu extended an invitation to Li Pu.
No matter how the other party sneaked out of the school or how he got rid of the mushroom-eating lizard.
From a purely consequential perspective, he still somewhat appreciates this new student.
He is obviously a cripple, but he can do things that normal freshmen cannot do.
Anyway, the merchandise area is supposed to open at the same time as the school starts, so it doesn't matter if we welcome customers earlier.
Trading Post Trading Post, in addition to buying things here, they also sell them.
"oh?"
Li Pu didn't expect this, and he immediately became interested.
"In that case, Xiao Liu, please take him to visit."
"If there's something you like, then there's no harm in selling it to him."
"And you can just put my name on it and get a 10% discount."
"As for me, I'd better go to bed."
"After all, time is not forgiving, you are old."
After giving instructions to the girl on duty, Mr. Tu slowly walked back to the inner room.
"Okay, Mr. Tu."
"Then this classmate, please come with me."
The girl known as Xiao Liu made a gesture of invitation to Li Pu, with a trace of envy on her face.
Admittedly, as a site employee, she can also enjoy the 10% discount on the purchase price.
But remembering Mr. Tu’s name when discounting shows that this classmate is favored by Mr. Tu.
She has been working at the trading station for four or five years, and this situation is still rare.
"In fact, most of the products we have here are products of the school's R&D department."
"You can think of them as specialties of our Western Capital University."
"The other small part is stuff that the school regularly purchases from outside."
"It can be regarded as Summoner's merchandise that is often circulated outside."
"Of course, the school does this just to make it easier for you not to have to travel far away from school."
"There is no profit difference in the middle."
While leading the way, Xiao Liu introduced Li Pu.
Due to the protection of special powers, Warcraft/summoned beasts are difficult to be affected by traditional technology.
Traditional technology refers to the technology before the world changed.
Only new technological products that incorporate theories related to Warcraft/Summoned Beasts can be effective in battles with them.
The more common products are things such as [Inscribed Weapons], Summoner Equipment, Summoned Beast Skills, Cultivation Materials, etc.
These introductions from Xiao Liu made Li Pu start to feel impatient.
The thing he cares about most is actually the skills of summoned beasts.
Of course, because he has the summoner talent [Friend of Warcraft], the straw man theoretically does not have to worry about not having good skills.
The real reason why Li Pu is interested in summoning beast skills is himself.
He really needs to strengthen his own abilities. This incident of eating a mushroom lizard proved that only by becoming stronger can he collect related objects more easily.
So under the leadership of Sister Liu, everyone followed through the hall to the elevator entrance, and then took the elevator there.
What surprised Li Pu was that the elevator did not go up, but down.
"Originally, our merchandise area was located upstairs."
Seeing Li Pu's little surprise, little Sister Liu smiled and explained.
"School hasn't started yet, so the merchandise area upstairs hasn't been cleaned yet."
"So the goods have not been moved up yet, so we can only go to the warehouse to take a look."
"But it's probably better this way because you'll see it more intuitively."
"Of course, Mr. Tu just said it is not limited to visits."
"Including the freshman greeting gift, you must have at least more than 3,000 crystal coins on you now."
"If you really like something, just buy it directly."
【jingle!】
As her words fell, the elevator reached the bottom floor.
The dazzling array of products made Li Pu's eyes light up.
