In the crowd, a middle-aged man patted the tree next to him and shouted loudly.
The tree next to him was as thick as an average person's thigh and 2.56 meters tall. Instead of leaves and branches, there were bunches of rice on the top of the tree, and heavy bunches of rice ears hung on the top of the stalks.
Ange glanced at it and said immediately: "Fake."
"Fake?" Nigris shouted in surprise. Dare you fake it in such a conference?
"What's fake? Are you saying that my tree rice is fake? Do you have eyes? Are you doing it on purpose? Come on, come over and take a closer look. If you can find any evidence of fakeness, I will cultivate the whole rice tree for you.
You." The middle-aged man shouted angrily.
Seeing that he was angry, the people around him tried to persuade him: "Master Maka, don't be angry, don't be like these... uh, a pet dragon, what does it know about tree rice? Don't be like it."
"No!" Master Maka said angrily: "This involves my credibility. If I can't get evidence, it will slander me and I must compensate for the loss of my reputation."
Nigris took a closer look and saw straws growing out of the buds at the top of the tree, as if they were really growing out of the tree. His consciousness swept over and discovered that the rice stalks were also alive.
.
Nigris flew back in confusion and asked in a low voice: "How can you fake it?"
Of course it would not suspect that Ange was wrong. How could the God of Planting be wrong? Are you kidding me? Even if this is a living rice tree, as long as the God of Planting says it is fake, it will not survive.
"You mean, he grafted rice and trees together to create this thing? What he grew was still rice, not 'tree' rice?" asked Negris.
Ange nodded.
"How is it possible that woody plants and herbaceous plants can be grafted together?" Nigris was shocked.
After staying with Ange for a long time, Nigris had a wealth of planting knowledge, and he could immediately tell that something was wrong.
Ange nodded and simply walked up and asked, "How was it done?"
Maka was stunned: "What and how?"
"Grafting, living, how to do it." Ange repeated patiently.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. What's grafting? Tree rice, tree rice. This is tree rice. Do you know what tree rice is? Rice that grows from trees..."
Before Maka could finish speaking, she saw Ange pull out a bag of magic crystals and asked again: "How?"
Maka's eyes lit up. This was a bag full of magic crystals, with hundreds of them. Not only him, there was a sound of inhaling from all around.
"What do you mean? Do you want to buy tree rice?" A trace of greed flashed in Maka's eyes, and she asked pretending not to understand.
Ange retracted his hand and stretched it out again. There was a bag of magic crystals in his hand: "How to do it."
"You want to ask, how to make the rice grow? This magic crystal is not enough." Maka's heart skipped a beat, and he realized that the opportunity to make a fortune seemed to be coming.
Ange tilted his head and realized something. He took back the hand holding the magic crystal and looked at the silver coins.
He is not a fool. Who wants to trick him? Wouldn't he be able to tell? Originally, I wanted to exchange for equal value, but how can I wait for this 'price'? Substitute! Ange looked at the silver coins.
Yin Coin was already angry, and he could see what Maka was thinking with the soles of his feet, but Ange had Ange's fun, and Yin Coin was not easy to interrupt unless it was too excessive.
Good guy, now even Ange can see that he wants to deceive others and leave things of 'equivalent value' to himself. If he doesn't deceive him now, he won't be called a 'profiteer'.
Yin Coin quickly put on a smile on his face and said in surprise: "Oh oh oh, the unprecedented precious rice tree appears in our trade fair? This is a huge happy event, we must protect it well, I am
Yin Coin, Vice President of the Silver Chamber of Commerce, hello everyone, the trade fair is hosted by our Silver Chamber of Commerce, and everyone is welcome to visit."
A businessman in the crowd responded loudly: "I know you, President Silver Coin, you are the one who hosted our caravan. You are considerate and kind, and you are an honest businessman. You are welcome."
Nigris and others looked at each other, and they recognized the businessman. Didn't he run around with the silver coins before? When did he blend into the crowd and act as a supporter?
Just be a supporter, won't you blush if you flatter me like this?
Yin Coin said with a smile: "I'm being negligent. Don't take offense. Please don't move around yet. There are precious rice trees here. I'll arrange security first. Someone is here."
"Come on, come on." Aishani, who had just run out and said she was going to resign, suddenly flew over, her robe hovering in the air, and asked loudly: "Boss, what are your orders?"
Luther also joined in the fun and floated with fighting spirit: "Boss, what are your orders?"
"Seal the venue first, don't move around, it will be over soon." Yin Coin said loudly.
Everyone was very cooperative, but they were already whispering below: "The Sword Master, the Sword Master, releases his fighting spirit, but the strength of his aura, I feel, is on the level of a high-level Sword Master. This Silver Chamber of Commerce has something special."
"The other one is more terrifying, the Mysterious Mage. What size of chamber of commerce can afford to support a Mysterious Mage?"
I saw Esani reciting a spell, and the staff shot out flame elves one after another, floating to various places in the venue like fireballs. Their function was similar to that of the wizard's eyes.
As the flames swayed, some stealthy thieves were shaken out one after another.
"Oh, thief, my wallet!"
"Oh, oh, damn thief, where is my underwear?"
"Ouch! Damn thief, where is my little lover?"
Seeing the thief, people nearby touched their bodies one after another and immediately found that a lot of things were missing from their bodies. How could a large chamber of commerce be missing a thief?
Using the excuse of security, the area was quickly surrounded. Except for Ange and the others, all the rest of the people rushed to other places.
At first, Maka thought that the silver coin was to build momentum for him, so that his 'Tree Rice' could be sold at a higher price. However, after all the idle people drove away, he slowly realized that something was wrong. How could this silver coin compare to the other side?
Are the people in the same group?
Just when Yin Coin was preparing to trick someone, a member of the Chamber of Commerce walked up to Yin Coin and whispered for a while, Yin Coin was slightly startled.
"What's wrong?" Nigris asked doubtfully.
"I was still thinking about how to trick him. Unexpectedly, we seemed to have found the wrong person. He did not make this tree rice. We found an owl in his carriage parked outside." Yin Coin said.
"Owl? Druid?" Nigris asked.
Nowadays, owls are almost always associated with druids. If they are associated with grafting and planting new crops, it is more likely to be druids.
Yin Coin shook his head: "I don't know, the situation is a bit strange, let's go take a look."
Hu Lala, all the people ran away, leaving Maka alone in the same place, no one cared about him. But when he wanted to leave, two swordsmen blocked the way with a smile.
The group of people came to the parking lot outside. There were a large number of carriages parked here. Some of the participants brought their families with them. In order to save some money, they slept directly on the carriages and cooked and washed themselves.
I found Maka's carriage, opened the door and saw an owl lying on a pile of straw, with its head buried in the straw, only its white and furry butt exposed.
Ange tilted his head and saw that there was a very powerful consciousness on the owl.
Maybe he heard the door open, and the owl said angrily:
"You'd better bring the little sheep back, or I'll pluck all your hair and use it to make the bed."
PS: I feel a little uncomfortable, I can’t sit still, as if my aunt is coming, I have to go for a check-up. The check-up has to be scheduled, and it will probably not be completed until the day after tomorrow. I will update it randomly in the past few days, so everyone can stock up.
