Elf Dark Insect Master

That night, Wutong left Ibrahimovic in another room of the hotel that had been opened by Zhixiu and asked her to take care of him, while he went to discuss hiring a private boat.

In the end, the deal was negotiated, with room and board included for two weeks and a one-time payment of 8000 alliance coins.

As far as this price is concerned, it is not only not excessive, but also very cheap. I guess there is a lot of kindness from the ship boss in it.

After returning to the hotel, Wutong had just taken a shower and was about to go to the next room to pick her up, but unexpectedly, the other party knocked on the door first.

"Stop standing there stupidly, come in first."

Wutong opened his hand, and Ibrahimovic immediately jumped into his arms happily.

"No, no need for me, I just have a few words to say."

"Relax, there is no Eighth Boss here, and there is no need to take care of your father. Just treat this as a rare trip."

I don't know why, even though the other party was talking in a very calm tone, Zhixiu's eyes felt a little sore after listening to it. It seemed that no one had talked to her like this for a long time.

"Would you like something to drink? How about coffee?"

"Ah, the coffee is good, thank you."

Wutong has always liked coffee, so he also has a set of special hand brewing equipment in his travel backpack.

"Well actually I know what you want to say"

Wutong was grinding coffee beans with his back to her. There was a similar refreshing drink in this world. He still called coffee out of habit, but it was actually just a similar kind of legume.

Zhixiu opened his mouth but said nothing, not quite understanding what the other party meant.

"You're talking about being a tour guide, especially when you challenged the Southern Cross. You might say that you didn't succeed in defeating Yongji in the end, or you might say that you haven't had an elf battle for more than two years and your strength has deteriorated. But these It doesn’t matter.”

Wutong spoke unhurriedly, which made Zhixiu feel depressed. Why did the other party seem to be able to read her mind? He was obviously a boy a few years younger than himself, but he could see through her thoughts.

"That's it. Apart from taking care of the elves, I may not be able to help much in challenging the gym."

"Looked up."

Wutong handed her a cup of coffee.

"what"

"I said, raise your head."

Wutong's calm hoarse voice had an unmistakable commanding tone. Zhixiu had to raise his head to look at this good-looking young man. When he met his eyes, he felt panicked and quickly looked away, but something emerged in his heart. His good-looking face.

Compared with the man at the beach, Wutong's face has fairer complexion and delicate skin. His facial features are soft but his face has sharp contours. Especially when he purses his lips, he does not give off a feminine temperament at all.

Just thinking about her own situation made her feel even more sad.

"That's right. You are actually quite good-looking. Please raise your head and be more confident about the gym challenge. I hired you to take care of my elf, so you don't need to worry about me asking you to help me challenge the gym. "But" Wutong changed the topic again and again, and then said: "I really need a guide who is familiar with the process. You are the niece of the ship boss, so I will hire you from your boss. In two weeks, about this part For help, I will pay you an additional consulting fee of three thousand alliance coins."

Zhixiu didn't know what to say for a while. After sorting out his thoughts, he remembered the original intention and said quickly: "Is this because you only have one elf?"

She originally wanted to say that three thousand alliance coins was too much, because it was almost equivalent to two months' salary, but she swallowed her words. She was indeed short of money, and she had a disabled person at home to take care of.

"When you need to take care of them, I will tell you. At other times, you don't need to do extra things." Wutong raised his wrist and looked at the electronic watch worth only a hundred alliance coins and the four-digit clothes on his body. It is much cheaper in comparison, but he is a realist. The quality and comfort of clothes can be felt when he wears them, but the watch is different.

"Okay, it's quite late. Let's go to bed early. The schedule will be quite busy in the next two weeks."

Zhixiu originally wanted to chat for a while, but the real life in the past two years had made her smaller. At this time, she just said nothing more, forced a smile, and left lightly.

Wutong had some thoughts about her, but it was not that kind of thought, but another kind.

But Zhixiu is just an episode. He is a very busy person. In other words, he is super busy and has a very fulfilling life. However, what fulfills his life is not entertainment, but mostly business and work.

For example, now that Zhixiu has been sent away, Wutong released his elf from the elf ball to breathe, and he connected to Eva. He chatted with her for a while, mainly to understand the company's operation.

Yunsen has started to make a profit, which is a good thing.

Because he is really spending less and less money now, this company is on the right track, which shows that as long as the overall situation is not bad, at least he will still have a living income to buy "milk powder energy cubes" for the elves.

The jewelry and rare items obtained from thousands of years ago have been sold for 77%, and the remaining ones are sold by the auction house. However, the profit margin is very serious, and he will not get too much in the end.

There is no way around this, each circle has its own way of playing.

Especially for things like jewelry, most of the value is "blown" out. If an ordinary person picks up a kilogram large blood diamond on the road, it is absolutely impossible to sell it for half of the market price.

Because diamonds have no practical value other than being used as industrial raw materials. They are not edible like food.

Its high value is an additional symbolic meaning created by capitalists' stories and propaganda, but diamonds are not the first example.

What is more ancient and has always existed is the art of art.

A painting, no matter what master it was painted by, would never sell for less than a thousand alliance coins. However, various stories were added to it, including the author's tragic past, as well as various "appraisals" and "appraisals" from various masters. With additional appraisal value such as "appreciation", even a graffiti drawn by a primary school student, as long as no one knows the source, and masters and experts randomly boast about the appraisal results of peerless abstract paintings, it can still be sold for a relatively high price for ordinary people. It's a sky-high price.

Therefore, except for jewelry, which has real practical value, such as energy gems, the pricing power of other items is only in the hands of people in that circle.

Wutong didn't belong to that circle, but he knew that when something was sold to them, it must only be sold at a low price, and then they would resell it at a high price, including hiring a shill to have a "treasure" transferred to several auction houses in a row. To raise the value and other operations.

And he holds some beautiful jewelry and runs his own auction house. There is no way he can sell these beautiful things at sky-high prices. All his peers can do is let the masters and experts in the circle step on them and they can put a newcomer in the exhibition. The auctions and auctions were all made pornographic, and no one cared about them.

why

Because the eyes, ears and channels for acquiring buyer resources are controlled by businessmen in these circles.

Those who can afford jewelry are rich people, and those who can’t afford it but like it can only get all kinds of drooling fantasy attention, but without exception, human nature will make them take the initiative to contact the circle, and then the circle is equal to the profession, and the masters and The opinions of experts will form the basis of their values ​​for these works of art.

Wutong sees it very clearly, especially in circles such as the jewelry circle and the art circle. For those big guys who have some control behind the scenes, the real money-making machines are the mouthpieces under their control, not the physical jewelry.

Now he is steadily promoting this matter in Wenxi City. Through that gathering at a wealthy merchant, he successfully let several prominent figures in the Mora family buy a batch of black gold fruits, and then for more benefits , these people may know how to operate under some "marketing information suggestions" he provides, but in any case, Wutong is just to ensure that what he wants will happen more definitely.

Those "big guys" in small towns will spare no effort to hype up the value of black gold fruit. The source of black gold fruit is indeed very mysterious and cannot be found in the wild. The rare label itself has a certain collection value and can be fully hyped. Not surprisingly, since the elf can change color after being eaten, it not only has practical value as a collection, but can easily fetch high prices.

But time is still short now. Before winter, just like those who have promised to the Revenge Association, the value of the black gold fruit will usher in a small surge. Many people who stock up will make a huge profit as a result, which is completely stimulating. Their greed.

The murderous knife buried in the sycamore tree will eventually have to wait until tomorrow's autumn, when the black gold fruit trees all over the mountains and plains will mature.

At that time, it was time to completely settle the past grudges for Unicorn and him.

But now there is no longer a need for him to come forward. Those who have tasted the hype and sold at a premium will spontaneously drive up the price, just like pushing a big stone from the top of the mountain. He only needs to be the initial pusher.

At that time, it was time to completely settle the past grudges for Unicorn and him.

But now there is no longer a need for him to come forward. Those who have tasted the hype and sold at a premium will spontaneously drive up the price, just like pushing a big stone from the top of the mountain. He only needs to be the initial pusher.

The next day, Wutong set off.

Liugan Island is usually two or three days away from Ping An Island.

And when Wutong did not calculate the fuel cost, relying on the industrial-grade acceleration of ship fuel oil instead of the ancient manpower and wind power, he finally arrived at Liugan Island after dark that day.

On the next day, October 10th this year, Wutong took the elves directly to the local Liuli Gym in the morning.

Along the way, you can see various high-rise buildings. Although it is half shorter than the Hezhong area, compared with the clusters of earth-tile houses that can be seen everywhere on Ping An Island, the city on Liugan Island is completely worthy of the title. A modern city.

Finally, he came to a luxurious hotel, which was also the Liuli Gym. The trainers who come to challenge usually stay in the hotel run by the gym owner to rest before the battle.

The Liugan Gym used to be the largest gym on the Orange Islands, close in size to the gym on the Orange Island. However, due to the renovation of another gym on the Orange Island and the renovation of another rising star, it can now only be reduced to third place.

The starting point is to follow the procedure and challenge a gym disciple. If he wins, he will notify the gym leader. Otherwise, if a trainer comes to challenge him randomly, the gym leader will come forward. Unless it is a small gym, it will be too shameless.

As the Liuli Gym is one of the Southern Cross Stars of the Orange Islands, it naturally cannot be so shameless.

Wutong did not come alone. He also brought two followers, namely the hired speedboat owner and Zhixiu. Neither of them were outsiders, and they would not be too excited to go shopping when they visited Liugan Island, so The two of them thought it would be more interesting to see how this young man from a wealthy family challenged the gym.

"Our gym has doubles rules, so there's no problem, right?"

"can."

"Then let's begin."

Wutong's opponent was a young female trainer. She had a passable appearance but a good figure, especially the mermaid muscle line on her abdomen. Looking at her legs, arms and shoulders, she could also see tight muscles. She obviously got exercise by swimming in the water regularly. Trained body shape.

"Mr. Mosquito Repellent, King Chuanshan, let's go."

The two elf balls thrown by the female trainer released typical elves.

Wutong glanced at their status and could tell that they were well bred, but not excellent.

Mosquito Repellent King has a pure water attribute, and it needs to evolve into a Mosquito Repellent Swimmer before it can have fighting attributes, while Chuanshan King is a single ground attribute elf, and neither has composite attributes, which will be easier to deal with.

Wutong came up with countermeasures almost without thinking, because with his rich combat experience, it really didn't take him a few seconds to figure out how to deal with an opponent of this level.

"Eevee, Porygon 2, let's go"

The Eevee released by Wutong was okay, but the Porygon 2 that appeared later really made everyone here look at it. This is a very rare type of spirit, and ordinary trainers can't get it because they don't exist at all. Wild artificial elves, and expensive.

"A very rare elf, but my elf has been working hard to train."

The young girl trainer had a cute wrinkled nose, and it was obvious that she didn't mean what she said, but she continued quickly: "Mr. Mosquito Repellent uses hypnosis, and King Chuanshan uses digging."

Zhixiu on one side looked at the agility of girls of the same age in the battle. She didn't realize how sad and sad the expression on her face was. After noticing it, the owner of the speedboat on the other side suppressed a sigh in his throat without saying anything. Come out, he is a friend of the boss of the ship, and he knows the story of this family to some extent. After all, Ping An Island is not big.

"Porygon 2, use Magic Reflection to block it, Eevee uses Celebration."

Wutong felt that Porygon 2 should be able to handle it, so he gave a strange order. Eevee couldn't figure it out, but it was still very obedient and started to dance casually on the spot. Anyway, it just twisted its body and jumped a few times. , quite happy.

"You, stop looking down on others"

The female trainer was angry. The other party actually asked Ibrahimovic to use the skill of celebration. This was pure contempt for others, because celebration is a useless skill, and the effect of the skill is the same as the name.

If you know King Magikarp's water splash, then you know what the skill Celebration is. It seems to have no power or damage, but in fact it is a skill with no damage or power, except for the carp that can be splashed by water. Wang Yi tail slapped the little kid with red cheeks.
