blue whales under the stars

Chapter 13

Linda's movements were neat, and the bound lobster lost most of its threat—although its appearance still looked a little scary, the fierce prototype just now left a deep impression on people.With the hard-headed assistance of the big guys, the boss quickly tested the crayfish in the entire back basket, and calculated their animal grade and price.

There are twenty crayfish in total, among which six are first-grade, thirteen are second-grade, and one crayfish that has obviously changed color is even more unexpected, it has already reached third-grade.When the crayfish was tested, Linda could feel the heat of Yuanshi through a thick layer of soil material.

The upper limit of the element detector in Taylor's store is exactly the third order.If it is one level higher, not to mention that the detector cannot detect it, Linda does not intend to really accept it-every third level of the primordial beast is a hurdle, and the ability of the fourth-level primal beast can already be hindered by an intermediate magician, but The power of intermediate magic is enough to destroy the city, even with Bai Cang's restriction, they would not want to take such a big risk.

Sent the big guys to get the forbidden box at the bottom of the store's press box, Linda carefully put the third-grade crayfish and the rope that was cut and tied twice into the box and sealed it, and it was counted as twenty. Crawfish are arranged properly.

After counting the crayfish, she continued to count another basket of sea fish.The store needs to detect all the element levels of the two baskets of Yuan beasts before they can make a final price based on the level.The price of Yuan beasts is not the same as that of ordinary sea beasts. The two baskets of Yuan beasts brought by Bai Cang this time can definitely be regarded as the biggest deal since the store opened.

While the boss and his staff were busy, Bai Cang also took out the oysters that were originally packed in the lobster basket.The guy who ran to the woodware shop next door has returned, and dozens of oysters have been neatly screwed to the bottom of the new bamboo basket in the same way.Mu Ye, who was standing at the side, wanted to come over to help, but Bai Cang didn't let him do it because he was concerned about the corrosive liquid spit out by the sea oyster.

While counting the lobsters just now, the boss has already seen the sea oysters at the bottom of the basket.This kind of creature has always been easy to sell, and has always been popular with seafood shops.It's just that she had asked Bai Cang just now, and the other party had no intention of making a deal, so she gave up the idea.

Mu Ye, who obediently stood aside and waited for them to finish their work, couldn't help feeling a little strange.He came all the way to the seaside before, and used the healing technique he knew in exchange for silver coins.There has been no war in the mainland for the past ten years, so the worst situation Mu Ye encountered was just some injuries that did not hurt the bones.

The clansmen have always tamed beasts as companions, and there are various indicators to judge the intelligence and combat power of wild beasts.It's just that most of these judgments are based on experience, and this is the first time Mu Ye has seen such accurate results that can be measured with sophisticated instruments.Those fierce lobsters were dragged by him on the gravel beach before. He always thought that what Mr. Blue Whale caught was just some bigger shrimps, but he didn't expect that the matter had gone beyond his understanding.

After finding their own companion beasts, daily hunting, communication with other clans, and resisting beast tides, from these ordinary or difficult matters, the clansmen can also naturally distinguish the level of each other's abilities.It's just that among the clansmen living in groups in the mountains and forests, Mu Ye is the only exception.He is the only one in the clan who can heal, so no one can compare with him, and naturally, no one can teach him.

In the bookcase of the patriarch's house, there are animal taming books, plant illustrated books, regional planning and esoteric spell books, but there are very few books about healing.Without accurate criteria for judging, and without a comparison object for growing together, Mu Ye actually doesn't know how many things he knows.

He has been being led forward by Mr. Blue Whale, and he thought he could become powerful enough to make his companion beast the happiest one.The young man vowed to make a promise, but before the road started, he was taught to recognize his childishness and ignorance by the strangeness and danger that only showed a corner of his clothes.

The tip of the boy's nose was a little itchy. He blinked vigorously, but he couldn't get rid of the soreness in his eye sockets.

He looked up at the silent and handsome profile of Mr. Lanjing, and a little panic suddenly sprouted deep in his heart.

Bai Cang, who was squatting halfway between two bamboo baskets, transferred the oysters out one by one, but he hadn't noticed the boy's thoughts at the side. The palm-sized rough hard shell was covered with soft and white soft meat, and the bottom of the basket was covered with neat oysters. two floors.On the other side, the boss has also tested the grade of sea fish.She took a small calculator and checked the elemental levels of the sea beasts with Bai Cang one by one.

After confirming that it was correct, Linda quickly calculated a price, and then ordered the big guys to fetch the cash box.

The main currencies in the mainland are copper coins, silver coins and gold coins, and the exchange ratio between the three is [-].Because the two baskets of sea things are Yuan beasts, the amount of the transaction can no longer be settled with silver coins, so Linda asked Bai Cang for his opinion: "Mr. Mage, do you want to trade with gold coins, or should you exchange them with Yuan Jing?" ?”

Bai Cang didn't hesitate, he said, "Gold coins."

Mu Ye had never heard of the concept of Yuanjing before.He left too many things behind. It was just a short transaction, and a colorless, thin but impenetrable film seemed to have formed between him and Mr. Blue Whale.

Linda quickly put the counted gold coins into a strong three-layer leather bag, and handed the heavy bag of gold coins to Bai Cang.The third-level Yuan beast alone is worth nearly 340 gold coins, plus other sea beasts, a total of [-] gold coins. Light can't go anywhere.

One gold coin is enough for a family of four to live for a month, and the amount of these gold coins can already be considered a huge sum of money.If Bai Cang did not come to this shop under the Taylor Chamber of Commerce, he would not be able to get the payment in full once he went to any other shop in the town.Even in this one, the store used the gold coins in reserve to make up enough money for this transaction.

Handing the gold coin to Bai Cang, Linda said, "I don't know how much more Mr. Yuan Beast wants to exchange? Our chamber of commerce is willing to buy it from you at the fairest price."

She actually wanted to ask Bai Cang to leave a contact time, so that the shop could replenish the payment and at the same time get more supplies that the chamber of commerce wanted.But Bai Cang shook his head and said, "We are leaving."

The boss was slightly taken aback, but he didn't ask any more questions.She had a vague premonition that Bai Cang had traded sea beasts many times before, but each time they were just ordinary sea creatures, and the price was not very expensive.If he didn't want to travel far, there was no need for him to come and exchange such a large amount of money at once.

But thinking about it, when it was actually confirmed, the boss still felt a little regretful.She shrugged her shoulders and smiled lightly, her long brown-red hair curved a little brightly: "Then, I wish you both a good journey."

When leaving, Bai Cang put the cloth bag full of gold coins into the basket, then carried the heavy bamboo basket on his back, and helped Mu Ye carry the bamboo basket containing the oysters.The two left the shop together, and as soon as they went out, Bai Cang put his hand on Mu Ye's back basket. Mu Ye felt a lightness on his shoulders, and the bamboo basket on his back seemed to be empty and lost weight.

He looked over in surprise, Mr. Blue Whale's eyes were as gentle and gentle as usual.Mu Ye tilted his head and said, "Have you put away those sea oysters?"

Bai Cang shook his head, and motioned to his back: "The gold coins are put away, and the oyster is on my back."

As they talked, they came to a secluded path. Mu Ye belatedly noticed that Mr. Blue Whale had slowed down. When he was wondering, the other party stopped in an inconspicuous place.

"what……?"

Bai Cang stretched out his right hand, and took the doubtful boy into his arms.He gently pressed Mu Ye's face against his chest, blocking the sight of others who might be around, and giving the person in his arms a short, dark but safe sheltered space.

With his left hand, he gently squeezed Mu Ye's slightly chilled back neck, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Ye, what's wrong with you?"

Mu Ye was stunned for a moment: "I...?

The deep and gentle voice was accompanied by today's warm sunshine. Even though he had left the coast, Mu Ye could still smell the salty sea waves in Mr. Blue Whale's arms.

The vast sea can erase people's trivial emotions. For Mu Ye, his Mr. Blue Whale is like the sea, omnipotent, mysterious and beautiful.

"Just now in the store, you pinched the tip of your nose twice and rubbed your eyes once." Bai Cang's voice slipped from the tip of his hair to the tips of his ears, like a sea breeze gently blowing past.

"Are you not happy?"
