Chapter 258 Coke for Tickets (Daily Chapter)
After watching the bird house, everyone moved on to the next attraction: the soundproof room of the mandrake.
Many people have heard of the Mandrake. It has appeared in various fantasy works, and it is considered famous. At this time, when they heard someone calling the name of the mandrake, they all ran over curiously to watch.
The glass room Mu You prepared for the mandrake is a space with a length of four meters and a thickness of one meter.
Because the mandrake likes to dig holes, half of the glass house is covered with earth and stones, but the part below the soil layer is made of one-way glass, and the soundproof glass that can normally receive light is above the soil layer.
That is to say, after the Mandrake gets into the soil layer, it looks black when viewed from the outside, but from the outside, the scene in the soil layer can be seen at a glance.
Because the space is soundproof, the Mandrake doesn't know that a large number of people are approaching it.
At this time, it is busy building its own underground palace, dragging a mini **** in its hand, constantly digging out clods from the soil layer, and sending them outside. After working all day since yesterday, it has dug out a 'basement' with two rooms and one living room underground.
And in the open space outside its basement, it has opened up a one-acre mini field, in which several egg-shaped plants similar to watermelons are planted.
Those were the few succulent cucurbit seeds that Muyou gave it before, and they were treasured in the buds on the top of its head, and they were planted immediately after arriving at the new home.
After the mandrake was sweating underground for a while, he swaggered back to the ground with a small **** on his shoulders, walked to its field, picked up the mini water bottle set that Muyou had prepared for it, and began to feed the mandrake in front of him. Water the succulent seeds.
After pouring the water, it just sat down on the rock, picked up the water bottle and poured a few sips of water into its mouth, as if exhausted, it lay down on the rock with its eyes closed and basked in the sun, with a pretty expression. Cozy.
It wasn't until a while later that it noticed that the surrounding light seemed to be flickering, and opened its eyes suspiciously, and suddenly saw the densely packed human faces outside the glass room, all with a terrifying expression called "Aunt Laughing". Staring at it, they were still holding something like a brick in their hands and constantly sending out 'flash attacks' at it.
The mandrake was frightened to the point of death, screamed, and kicked sparks on the ground with all four limbs and short legs, and fled into its basement, shivering in the hole. , It was only after confirming that no one was chasing outside that he relaxed a little, sneaked to the entrance of the cave, and looked out vigilantly.
As everyone knows, its every move is surrounded by tourists, especially when it sneaks up and looks around, fighting wits and courage with the air, it arouses bursts of laughter among the outside crowd.
"This is too cute!"
All the tourists said that they were all attracted by the mandrake, especially the female tourists. Watching this scene, they couldn't stop their girlish hearts from flooding.
In the more famous world view of "Harry Potter", the mandrake is an ugly creature that can even bite people's fingers, which is a bit scary, but the real mandrake is not only cute and cute, but also Every move is full of joy.
Who would have thought before that it is a grass, but it is like a living villain, carrying a **** and living a rural life leisurely seeing Nanshan. This contrast is also one of the most interesting points for tourists.
"Huh? There are treants here too!"
At this time, the tourists on the edge seemed to find something, and they were surprised.
Next to the mandrake soundproof room, another vegetable garden was opened up, separated by a low fence, marked with 'no entry', and egg-shaped watermelons were planted in the garden. In addition, There are also many tree people like small saplings running back and forth in the garden, taking care of the growth of 'watermelon'.
"Is this also a Mandrake?"
"They don't look much alike...but they are all moving plants..."
…
Several people outside the fence whispered to each other.
"This is called Succulent Bud Grass." As Mu You said, he climbed over the fence and walked into the vegetable garden.
A group of little tree figures in the garden immediately surrounded him, making babbling sounds, like naughty children, constantly grabbing his trouser legs and trying to climb on him.
Few people have heard of the name Succulent Bud Grass, but the group of moving little tree figures in front of them are no less cute than the mandrakes next to them.
The most important thing is that the tree people here can be interacted with!
As Mu You led a group of saplings to the edge of the garden, picked up a sapling, and handed it to a tourist outside the fence, the tourists here suddenly boiled.
The several animals I saw along the way before were all locked in a glass room. They can only be seen but cannot be touched. Now it is finally a creature that can be directly interacted with.
The exclamation that erupted from this side also immediately attracted the attention of some tourists in the nearby Mandela thatched house and in the distance.
More and more people were attracted and made more exclamations, so the outside of the vegetable garden was soon crowded with people.
"Succulents are not dangerous and will not harm humans. Just be careful not to pull them. In addition, don't try to feed them with food and water. They only absorb nutrients from the soil and the sun, and they will not eat ordinary feed."
While talking, Mu You stretched out his hand towards the ground, and the saplings at his feet scrambled to climb up his palm along his fingers, and then he sent them to the waiting tourists outside.
Fortunately, the tourists at the scene were quite qualified, and the store manager Mu You watched in person. The order on the scene was well maintained. The people who received the succulent grasses carefully held the saplings in their palms, and then a few people Gathered together to watch, at most reached out to tease from time to time, and there was no snatching.
The succulent succulent in the shape of a tree figure is still very good in appearance. On the green body, there are a pair of small bean-like eyes and an inconspicuous snout. The body is covered with plump and juicy succulent leaves, especially the neck. The circle of fleshy leaves on the top protects the sapling's round head like an armor, which looks quite cute.
These succulents that hatch into treants have been sterilized. After sterilized, their size will stop growing, and then they will maintain a length of about one decimeter for a long time. They are perfect for pets.
The people who squeezed in the front row to watch the little tree people were basically women. In this case, the elders in the back row were embarrassed to come and squeeze, and could only stand on tiptoe enviously.
Lin Hai, on the other hand, had changed into a nun’s skin at some point, and took advantage of his gender to squeeze in front of the fence and take a close-up shot.
Looking at the more than 30 saplings held by the tourists, Lin Hai felt moved, and asked Mu You, "Master, there are so many of these little trees, are they going to be sold?"
"Yes." Mu You nodded.
Succulents are one of the easiest creatures for him to cultivate. Whether it is by borrowing the old grandma's harvest horn or his own "crazy growth", plants can be quickly cultivated.
Actually, these are the second batch of succulent succulents, and the first batch of treants sent back are all planted in the lock cylinder space, and a lot of seeds have been stored.
Of course, it is not advisable to sell too much at once, too much will easily cause the market to flood and depreciate, and the other may arouse suspicion from others, so Muyou only planned to sell in a limited manner from the beginning.
Tourists were even more pleasantly surprised when they heard that this item was still on sale, and asked about the price one after another.
And Mu You didn't whet his appetite, and directly announced the price that had already been set: 40,000 a plant!
40,000, converted into a lifespan of about five years, this price is undoubtedly extremely expensive, and spending 40,000 to buy a plant of grass is unimaginable to ordinary people.
However, even at this price, it was still looted at the scene.
"I'll buy one!"
"Boss, I want one too, no, two!"
"Leave me one too!"
…
After Muyou announced the price, many people rushed to raise their hands to express their desire to buy. Some even wanted to buy four or five of them without batting an eyelid. The gap between rich and poor was fully reflected at this moment.
"Don't worry, because the number of pets in this store is currently limited, and the demand is too high. Each creature is limited to one per person, and each exhibition will only sell a maximum of two of each creature for sale." Mu You announced a new the rule of.
The creatures that are officially sold in his store now are actually only succulents, frog seeds and several types of ornamental fish. They sell two per game and ten per day. This sales speed is almost exactly the same as their cultivation speed. At the same time, through this limited marketing method, the store can also continue to maintain its popularity.
"Huh? Why are there only two?"
Everyone immediately complained that there were at least 40 or 50 people who raised their hands to buy at the scene. If they only sell two, it means that they will have to compete with many other competitors, and they may not be able to buy them even if they have money.
"Boss, can I pay more for it?" Someone asked hurriedly.
Mu You shook his head resolutely: "The price is fixed. This store does not engage in auctions. Anyone who wants to buy can use the APP to scan the code here to make a reservation. Ten minutes before the end of each show, people will be randomly selected from the store. Purchase eligibility will be drawn from those who pre-ordered."
Everyone persuaded for a while, seeing that Mu You didn't plan to change his mind, they had to rush to scan the code to make a reservation.
Although some people are reluctant to use this kind of luck, they have to admit that this method is the fairest at present. At any rate, everyone has the opportunity to buy it, and it will not be monopolized by a few rich people.
And when everyone scanned the QR code to sign up, a relevant agreement called "Magical Creature Breeding Guarantee" popped up on the phone immediately, and they had to read and agree before they could sign up.
The content of the agreement is not much, the main point is: the buyer needs to guarantee not to abuse, resell, or discard the magical creature in hand!
In addition, there are some scattered small clauses, all in all, to ensure that the purchased pets cannot be used for purposes other than breeding.
Of course, if you encounter problems in breeding, such as you don’t want to keep it or you can’t keep it for various reasons, you can send it back to the pet shop at any time. The pet shop will take back the pet at a certain price according to the state of the pet.
This agreement is also one of the conditions for approval by the Academy of Sciences. In the future, all shops related to magic pets will have similar agreements.
A group of people swiped the QR code noisily, Mu You called Xiaoya to help watch, and he went to rest for a while.
Leaving the scene, Mu You quickly found Coke lying on a stone platform not far away.
Coke was pulled over by Muyou today to make up the numbers. After all, it was a magical animal. Muyou was going to pull it here to be a lucky cat or something, but it turned out that this guy was too lazy, so he found such a comfortable place when he entered the space. Lying on the rocks basking in the sun and sleeping.
Pedestrians would pass by it from time to time, but they didn't intend to stay. After all, Coke looks like an ordinary dog, nothing new.
"Look at that cat, it's so fat and short!"
…
Two little girls passed by the stone platform, giggling as they looked in the direction of Coke.
Coke was completely unmoved by this. Lazily lying on the warm stone, his eyes followed the direction in which the two girls left, and he sneered in his heart: Hmph, stupid mortals, I don’t care to please you guys. A woman screaming at a blade of grass!
Stretched his body and stretched his waist, Coke looked up and saw Mu You walking in the distance, jumped up and complained to him: "Mu You, why isn't it over yet? I'm going back to watch anime!"
"When can't you watch anime? Now that there are so many customers, you should also go and interact with people. If you behave well, others will feed you."
"I'm not interested, meow. And these fools are too ignorant, just now that woman actually disliked me for being fat? Am I fat?" Coke said angrily.
...
Mu You didn't attack it bluntly, but shook his head and said: "You should cherish the opportunity, this is your last day on earth, and you will go back to your master tomorrow, you don't plan to fight for a 'star animal' before you leave ' or something like that, can you bring it back and show it to your master?"
"Star animal? What is that?" Coke was taken aback.
"I opened a poll for 'Today's Cutest Animal' on the APP. Every visitor who enters the venue can cast three votes for the three animals he likes the most. The animals with the top three final votes will win the 'Today's Cutest Animals' poll. The label of Star Animal'." Mu You said.
"Oh? Then how many votes do I have?" Coke became a little interested. When it followed its master at the Academy of Magic, it participated in similar voting several times, and it was often the king of votes at that time.
"Well... three votes." Mu You glanced at the phone and said.
"Why only three votes?" Coke frowned, the number of votes was slightly different from what it imagined.
Mu You glanced at it speechlessly, and only these three votes were votes of friendship from him and Lin Xuexiaoya.
"Then where do I rank?" Coke asked persistently.
"Well... the last one." Mu You said.
"Countdown?" Coke looked at Mu You in disbelief, and it took him a while to realize: "Ben is the last one? Are you kidding me? I am the most expensive familiar in the audience, okay?"
"If you don't believe me, watch it for yourself." Mu You showed it the phone screen.
Cola hurriedly grabbed the phone to check, and saw a row of more than forty pet heads. Its cat head was indeed the last one, and apart from it, even if there were few other animals, it still had double-digit votes.
"how so…"
Coke was struck by lightning, looking at his white gloves and meat pads, the whole cat fell into a state of doubt about the cat's birth.
"Am I... not attractive anymore?"
"... Then after I go back, will the master not want me?"
Cola looked at the tourists coming and going around him distractedly, but no one looked at it, and suddenly became even more disappointed.
When Mu You was worried about whether the silly cat had been beaten too much, Coke suddenly cheered up and shouted: "No, I can't embarrass the master! I want to prove that I am the cutest familiar! I want to Be an animal star!"
While meowing, Coke jumped off the stone platform and rushed towards the two closest figures in the distance.
Coke ran towards the two girls who had laughed at him just now.
The two girls were discussing something excitedly, when they saw a spherical creature pig rushing towards them, they were startled, and then they realized that it was a cat.
Cola rushed directly to the short girl among them, rubbed against her legs and meowed, trying to show all the cute moves she knew.
The girl who was entangled was stunned: "Hey, why does this cat keep stalking me!"
The round-faced girl next to him stared at Coke for a few moments, then suddenly said, "Hey, this cat seems to be quite cute too!"
But the short girl next to her immediately shook her head in distaste: "Let's go, I feel that this cat is not mentally normal... and Meishort sheds too much, I am allergic to cat hair..."
Coke was once again hit by the disgusting eyes of the short girl. After a brief loss, he hurriedly changed his target, holding the ankle of the round-faced girl with his two front paws, and continued to meow non-stop, looking pitifully at she.
The round-faced girl felt a little soft-hearted now. Looking at the feed bucket in her hand, she hesitated and said, "But it looks so pitiful, has it been hungry for a long time, why don't you give it something to eat?"
"Ah? Are you sure you want to give it? But this feed bucket is for chocobos. The feed buckets here are too expensive, and I don't have the money to buy a second bucket." The short girl was a little reluctant.
At this time, Coke hastily waved its paws at the feed bucket, signaling that he would not eat, and then kept barking at the mobile phones in their hands.
"Huh? It doesn't seem to be eating... pointing at the phone... is it asking us to vote for it?" The round-faced girl came to her senses.
"Impossible? Cats have this IQ?" The short girl looked disbelieving.
As soon as the words fell, Coke began to nod non-stop, indicating that this was the case, and both of them looked stupid.
The two women looked at each other and realized something.
"Boss, is this cat also a magical animal?" The two hurriedly found Mu You who was not far away and asked.
Mu You took a look at Coke, nodded, and helped to promote it: "Yes, it is called Phantom Cat. Although it looks the same as Meishou in appearance, it is actually a very expensive civet. Its ability can be compared to others. Creates illusions in vision."
"Wow!"
Both of them looked at Coke in disbelief when they heard the words.
The short girl thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Then can you become a puppet cat?"
Coke frowned upon hearing this, and meowed in displeasure: Are you kidding me, these two stupid women want it to turn into another cat, doesn't that mean it's not attractive?
"If you can become a Ragdoll, I will vote for you!" the girl added.
Coke transformed on the spot without saying a word.
In the blink of an eye, it changed from a fat and short puppet to a fluffy fairy puppet.
"Wow, it really has changed!"
Both girls looked at the good-looking puppet in front of them in surprise.
After watching the two people vote with their own eyes, Coke finally found the trick, and hurriedly approached Muyou through sound transmission: "Muyou Muyou, please write me a sign asking for a vote, remember to write my ability, Said I could perform a transformation for them as long as they voted for me!"
A few minutes later, Coke got the brand it wanted from Muyou as it wished, held it in his mouth, and went straight to the next tourist.
Looking at Coke, who was looking for tourists to roll around in the distance, and begging for tickets, Mu You rolled his eyes and ignored it. He continued to inspect the situation in the park, and soon saw two familiar figures in another direction. Walked over with some surprise.
"The one with the glasses, don't feed it indiscriminately! It's called a salamander. It was born and grew up in flames. The only food it can eat is hot enough peppers and plant ashes. Eating ordinary feed will only make it diarrhea..."
"Nonsense! This is called Chakalong. Although it looks like a small velociraptor, it is actually a magic chicken. You can tell it from the comb on its head..."
…
Near the exhibition area of several animals brought back from the Academy of Sciences, an energetic old man was standing in front of the crowd, talking to the surrounding animals, pointing out the obvious mistakes of some tourists from time to time.
"Huh? Why are you all gone..."
The old man was talking in high spirits, but when he looked back, he found that the crowd around him had already moved away, and only he was still talking to himself.
"Dean, your aura is too strong!" A girl with a ponytail said in embarrassment at the back. She is obviously a normal science animal, but it gave her the feeling that she once took a big class in the academy, and she always felt that she would be called in the next moment. Get up and answer the question.
"Dean Chen? Why are you here?" At this moment, Mu You's voice came.
The old and the young, who were mingling with the tourists in front of them and pretending to be ordinary people, were Chen Yichuan and Song Wenjing whom they had met at the Academy of Sciences a few days ago. And behind the two, there are several young men and women who seem to be from the Academy of Sciences.
"Dean Chen...you really brought people here to buy the seeds of the frog, right?" Mu You walked up to the two of them with a strange expression on his face.
"Of course not." Chen Yichuan's eyelids twitched, and he said with a serious expression, "I'm here to check whether the animals you took away are well taken care of!"
"Oh... what do you think?" Mu You asked.
Chen Yichuan looked around the space and nodded: "Not bad..."
But after looking around, his eyes stayed on Coke who was looking for someone to touch porcelain.
"This phantom cat, you didn't seem to register that day?"
"That's right, because it's not a pet from a pet shop." Mu You said.
"Oh?" Chen Yichuan was a little surprised.
"Others who are fostered with me will return them in a few days." Mu You said.
