"The green caterpillars and I accidentally encountered a group of green caterpillars in the forest, and after some contact, these green caterpillars were willing to go to the green caterpillar breeding base in Qingxi Village, so I brought them back."
Mark replied.
This argument was something he had already thought of.
He neither wanted to deceive the third uncle who had always taken good care of him, nor did he want to expose the territory of the green caterpillar group for the time being, so while telling the truth, he hid some content.
Old Man Qian glanced at the hundreds of green caterpillars in the courtyard, and then at Mark's green caterpillars. He suddenly thought of something and showed a surprised expression.
Old Man Qian said thoughtfully: "Although the green caterpillars inhabit the forest in a scattered manner, sometimes some green caterpillars gather together.
Your green caterpillar is tall and strong. It should be recognized by these elves as the leader, so it voluntarily follows your green caterpillar to Qingxi Village. Even though the probability is not high, it is estimated that it may not succeed even once a hundred times. You are really good.
Luck..."
Mark nodded slightly.
In fact, Uncle Qian's guess was not too far off.
Uncle Qian just misjudged the number of green caterpillars in the group, thinking that there were only more than a hundred green caterpillars in the group. He also guessed the position of the green caterpillars wrongly. Other than that, there was basically no difference.
His green caterpillar was not recognized as the leader of the green caterpillars, but as the leader's guard.
As his green caterpillars continue to practice in the green caterpillar territory, due to changes in their aura, some green caterpillars mistakenly believe that his green caterpillars are the same kind and do not attack them. Moreover, because of their tall size, they will regard them as their leaders.
Guard.
The more than one hundred green caterpillars he brought this time are the diehards among them.
They also mistook the green caterpillars for the leader's guards. Some green caterpillars were able to repent under the instructions of the leader of the green caterpillars. However, there were hundreds of die-hard green caterpillars who, even if the leader of the green caterpillars explained, still couldn't tell the difference.
After understanding the situation, he always believed that his green caterpillar was the leader of the guards, and then paddled in the actual combat exercise.
This time Mark brought more than a hundred green caterpillars back to the village, which are the weaker ones among these die-hard elements, and he has obtained the consent of the green caterpillar leader.
The green caterpillars living in Qingxi Forest face various threats all the time. These weak green caterpillars are more easily targeted by bird predators.
Taking these green caterpillars to the green caterpillar breeding base in Qingxi Village, where they have no worries about food and drink, is a win-win situation in some respects.
He can earn a small sum of money, and these green caterpillars can also live a stable life.
In addition, it will also pave the way for his green caterpillar to become the leader of the breeding base in the future.
While Mark was still thinking, Old Man Qian had already walked towards the green caterpillar in the yard.
Compared to being 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 showed stress reactions, arching their bodies as if their hair had exploded.
If Mr. Qian continues to approach, these two green caterpillars will spray stinky liquid at Mr. Qian just like they do to natural predators of birds.
However, this is not the first time that Old Man Qian has faced this situation.
He first took out a handful of powder and sprinkled it around himself to remove his human smell, then took out a stick of feed that looked like black ham sausage and handed it to the nearby green caterpillar.
Most of the green caterpillars would refuse the food offered by strangers. However, as one of the bold green caterpillars approached and took a bite, the other green caterpillars quickly approached, and soon they were scrambling for the first place.
ate the food in Old Man Qian’s hand.
"The green caterpillar is a docile elf and has a strong tendency to follow the herd. If you just bring back a few green caterpillars, it will not be easy to deal with, but with so many green caterpillars, it will be much easier."
Old Man Qian explained with a smile while touching and pressing the green caterpillar that was near him with his palm.
"These green caterpillars you brought this time are pretty good. Each one can be sold for about 60 yuan. But after all, you brought so many at one time, I will give you one for 62 yuan. These green caterpillars can be sold for about 60 yuan."
Sold for less than 7,000 yuan."
Mark raised his eyebrows slightly, "Can it be sold for 62 yuan?"
Old Man Qian frowned slightly: "I have specially subsidized this price for you, you kid, don't know what is good and what is bad."
Mark quickly explained: "Uncle, you misunderstood. I just think the price is a bit high. Didn't you say that based on the quality of the green caterpillars, one green caterpillar can be exchanged for 35 to 100 yuan? These green caterpillars should be relatively small in size." Old Man Qian suddenly said: "This is because you don't know. Although the green caterpillars you brought are slightly smaller, the quality and quantity of the silk threads spun by the green caterpillars do not entirely depend on the size. The green caterpillars you brought
If the caterpillar eats enough food, the silk threads it spits out should be good."
Mark showed a stunned expression, and the green caterpillar on the side used [Spin Silk] directly on the ground near Old Man Qian.
After learning from the leader of the green caterpillar these days, the green caterpillar has made some progress in its silk spinning.
It is impossible to spit out the net directly like the leader of the green caterpillar, but it can already spit out two silk threads at one time.
Seeing the green caterpillar trying hard to show off, Old Man Qian smiled and said: "Not bad, not bad, the silk threads you spit out are better than them all. You can probably sell them for 200, no, 250 yuan. Then you can fight with these green caterpillars tomorrow."
Let's go to the green caterpillar breeding base to spin silk on time every day. I will give you good food and drink every day. You can live peacefully in the green caterpillar breeding base, and your master will save time in cultivating you..."
Following Old Man Qian's words, the green caterpillar looked excited at first, but soon realized something, his eyes showed some confusion, and he looked at Mark with a help-seeking look.
Mark shook his head helplessly, rubbed the green caterpillar's head and said, "Uncle San is teasing you. How could I 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 it was going to be separated from Mark.
Old Man Qian also touched the green caterpillar's head, then turned to look at Mark: "Speaking of which, is it because your green caterpillar has grown again in size because it ate those orange fruits?"
Mark didn't hide it completely. He took out two pomelo fruits from his pocket and said, "Actually, it's not just orange fruits. My green caterpillar also ate this kind of tree fruit."
Old Man Qian's face turned serious and he said: "Wenyouguo?"
Mark nodded and said: "Well, I saw its introduction in the "Elf Encyclopedia of the Kingdom of Shia (4)". It should be this kind of tree fruit. The pomelo fruit tree I found also has some fruits. These two are
This is for you. After all, you have been taking great care of me during this time."
Old Man Qian looked at Mark with a complex expression for a while, "Give it to me? Do you know the value of this kind of tree fruit?"
Mark shook his head.
"Ten thousand." Looking at Mark's unconcerned expression, Old Man Qian continued: "Ten thousand each, and they are priceless but not marketable. Unlike the orange fruit, artificial cultivation of pomelo fruit in the Kingdom of Shia has never been successful.
Success, in fact, ten thousand is just the official price. In some private transactions, the price of pomelo fruits is even higher. Are you sure you want to give me both fruits?"
"Yeah."
Seeing 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 are enlightened, you still lack some experience in some aspects. Remember, you must be on guard against others. If similar things happen in the future, don't tell anyone, not even me."
Don’t tell either, by the way, you didn’t tell anyone about Wenyouguo, right?”
"No."
Old Man Qian nodded and said: "That's good. Keep the matter of the pomelo tree in your stomach and don't tell anyone. The value of the pomelo tree is too great and cannot be tolerated by a brat like you.
The pomelo fruit must be disposed of immediately. If you see a stranger near the pomelo fruit tree, be sure to hide it and do not come forward.
As for these two pomelo fruits, leave them to me. It can almost replace your green caterpillar with a [Power Grid] move learner. Although the [Power Grid] move can also be learned after the green caterpillar evolves, it is still
It is easier to learn during the green caterpillar period and the results are better."
"Uncle Third, actually..."
Old Man Qian waved his hand to interrupt Mark who wanted to refuse, and then changed the subject: "It's not a big deal if these green caterpillars are left in the yard like this. The moon chrysanthemum seedlings I planted next to the wall will be eaten away by them.
, let’s transport these green caterpillars to the breeding base at night..."
