My farm does not raise idle dragons

Chapter 72 Timber Merchant

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of breaking through the sky, and a black shadow was seen flying above the sky in the distance.

Before Cross could leave, the moment he looked at the black shadow, his footsteps stopped involuntarily, his mind started spinning rapidly, and his expression hesitated.

I don’t know whether I should run away first to avoid being a stumbling block for this noble lady, or I should rush in front of the noble lady at this moment and put on a look of "risking my life to protect" and protect my village. Those who strive for a good impression.

But he didn't hesitate for long. The black shadow approached much faster than he could judge, and it flew close within a few seconds.

Cross didn't know what kind of monster it was, but with a good eye he saw the two pendants hanging on the monster's chest, as well as the stone sheep prey caught under the monster's feet.

Just as he thought, the monster was the noble lady's magic pet, and it was just released for hunting.

Maybe this noble lady is really having a picnic?
Cross couldn't understand the meaning of dining outdoors, but he couldn't understand the behavior of the nobles, so he just bowed his head respectfully.

Asking Zhuo Zuo to put down the prey, Lu Xi couldn't wait to pull Zhuo Zuo, "Quick, Zhuo Zuo, set fire to burn this whole piece. Only then did I know that dandelions can actually suck blood!"

Zhuo Zhuo is also one of those who appreciates red dandelions, but he likes them because they are the same "red" color as himself.

After hearing Lu Xi explain what just happened, he immediately raised his head high and started spitting fire around.

Under the urging of the fire element, an extremely clean open space was quickly burned out.

Lu Xi looked at the steel-like scales on Zuo Zuo's body and couldn't help but sigh. Even if the red dandelion seeds were stained on Zuo Zuo's body, they would have no effect at all.

Laughing to death, not breaking the defense at all.

Xiao Yuan did not just watch from the sidelines. Under Lu Xi's command, he controlled the wind element and blew through all the places where red dandelion seeds might be hidden, trying not to leave any danger.

Only then did Lu Xi realize that Cross had not moved where he was, and was confused, "Why haven't you gone back yet?"

Cross froze for a moment. He could say that it was because when he was about to leave, he noticed an unknown monster approaching, so he stopped and prepared to show off.

It turned out that the monster was simply a raised demon pet. It couldn't do anything it wanted to do, and it couldn't move forward or retreat for a while.

Lu Xi also asked casually, and before Cross could answer, he waved his hand, "Forget it, go back quickly."

Cross looked at the two familiars and understood the aristocratic lady's confidence in traveling alone. A familiar with elemental magic like this could destroy a village like theirs with just a raise of a hand.

As for this noble lady, she brought two magic pets. Although one of them was still a cub, who said that monster cubs couldn't beat them.

With the protection of this kind of force value, and within the scope of her own territory, it is no wonder that this noble lady is confident.

Of course, even if you meet a noble without any magic pet, don't have any bad thoughts.

Elemental magic weapons are expensive items that are difficult for ordinary people to access, but for nobles, even the ruined nobles will have at least a few inherited elemental magic weapons to protect themselves.

If they are not black mercenaries with strong combat capabilities, or some bandits with the ability of elemental warriors, ordinary people should not think about how to harm the nobles, it is impossible.

For example, the elemental robe on Lu Xi's body, let's put it this way, if she stood there and let these ordinary people punch and kick her all day long, the defensive ability of the elemental robe would not weaken at all.

Only attacks with elemental power can break through the elemental robe's defense, or powerful forces beyond the limit, such as a tail that Zhuo Zhuo gave Lu Xi with all his strength. Although it won't break the defense in one go, with a few more tail swings, the elemental robe will definitely be able to break through. It's useless.

In addition, nobles basically have "bloodline elemental spells" to mark family members of the same bloodline. Once a family member dies, they will be affected. You can even follow the traces of elemental spells to find the place of death. , and through some retroactive elemental spells, you can clearly know what happened.

For example, Chief Luli of Kuwa Village, because he once served as a trainee knight for a nobleman, knew these things, so his attitude towards Lu Xi was so friendly, and he did not even dare to let Lu Xi get into trouble within the confines of his village.

Ordinary civilians wouldn't know so much, but as long as they remembered not to "provoke" the nobles, they would basically be fine.

Cross didn't dare to say anything, lowered his head, wrapped himself in a loose bathrobe, and trotted away.

It wasn't until the surrounding area was burned into a large open space that Lu Xi breathed a sigh of relief. It felt like red dandelion seeds had fallen somewhere. It was like he was getting ready to sleep and found a needle dropped from the bed. After searching for a long time, he still couldn't find it. , I don’t know when I will prick myself.

After destroying all the dandelions that could be seen around, regardless of the mature ones, Lu Xi looked at the unharvested dandelions on the three disposable farmlands, hesitated, and finally harvested them in advance and put them into the system backpack.

She could continue to waste time without harvesting, delaying the completion of the task, but those people obviously knew the red dandelion seedlings, and they would definitely be scared when they saw these saplings, so it was better to put them away to avoid any accidents.

After everything was put away, the system notification also popped up.

[System notification: Congratulations to the player for completing "Challenge Mission ⑧·Planting and Harvesting" and receiving the mission reward "80 challenge gold coins, 800 experience points". 】

[System prompt: Dangerous plants will also have their own unique uses. Players have a keen eye and can discover the advantages of dangerous plants, but sometimes the "danger" itself requires players to pay more attention. 】

Stop mocking, I got it. Lu Xi pursed her lips and looked at the system prompts. It seemed like there was nothing wrong with the wording, but she always felt that she was being ridiculed by the system.

[Challenge Mission [-]·Timber Merchant: The player has stored a large amount of timber in the system warehouse. After hearing the news, an unknown merchant decided to come and purchase the excess timber from the player. The player can decide the quantity to sell. 】

[Task reward: 90 challenge gold coins, 900 experience points, unknown. 】

Lu Xi thought she was going to go on an extreme journey - spending more than ten minutes to let Zhuo Zuo take her back to the farm to complete the task, and then rushing back after completing the task, it shouldn't affect her ability to do side tasks.

But I didn't expect that next to the mission introduction of challenge mission ⑨, there was an icon of a small round button with the two characters "summon" written on it.

Lu Xi looked around. It would take at least half an hour for Cross to go back and bring his companions over. There would be no outsiders to disturb him, so he directly pressed the summon button.

Lu Xi blinked her eyes and didn't see any unnecessary movement. Just when she was about to take another look at the details of the mission, a strong gust of wind suddenly blew.

Lu Xi closed his eyes to avoid the strong wind that hit his face. When he opened his eyes, an unknown person wearing a gray cloak, whose whole body was wrapped in a cloak, and whose gender could not be distinguished, appeared in front of him.

【Timber Merchant】

Lu Xi looked at the font above the big brother's head and couldn't help but want to ask about this game system. Aren't you a "leisure farm"?Why are you mixing and matching so many other games?
How can there be any "timber merchants" in the leisure farm?Doesn't that duplicate the function of the "teleport box"? !
"Hello?" Lu Xi greeted.

The wood merchant himself stood there without any reaction, but a system panel suddenly popped out.

[Timber merchant: Hello (ω)]

Ah... it's a dialog box, Lu Xi thought indifferently and speechlessly. The dialog box has been refreshed with new text.

[Timber Merchant: Do you want to sell timber? [_?]]

"Uh, it's me." Lu Xi looked at the motionless timber merchant himself, and then at the chat dialog box with cute emojis.

[Timber merchant: (.ω.)ノ How much wood do you want to sell? 】

Before Lu Xi could answer, another system panel suddenly opened and unfolded in front of Lu Xi's eyes. It was a price list.

Lu Xi glanced at it casually, then suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked back several times.

"...This price is really fake."

It's not that Lu Xi doesn't want to believe it, it's mainly because the price gap is too big. The system purchases sandstone wood that costs 15 copper coins a piece, but it gives a price of 1500 copper coins a piece.The difference is hundreds of times! ! !
[Timber merchant: Of course it is a real duck, we will not deceive customers (●''●)]

Lu Xi doubted it again and again, but the advantage was right in front of him. If he didn't take advantage of it, he would be at a big loss.

It happened that the wood in her system warehouse was full, so it was the right opportunity to clean it up.

She did sell a lot of wood in the last lottery to clear space...but she also won a lot of wood. After going back and forth, the quantity was still the same.

Lu Xi first chose 1 yuan of gravel tree wood to sell, which was not much, and it occupied ten of her system warehouse grids.

Fortunately, the cool thing about the game system is that Lu Xi's system backpack is connected to various warehouses and can be taken out and put in directly. Otherwise, she would have to go back to the warehouse at home to get wood, which would be a hassle.

[System notification: Congratulations to the player for winning 150 gold coins. 】

Lu Xi felt that she was a little lost. She had sold more than 1 pieces of wood and received 150 gold coins, but she actually felt...a little little?

Of course they were resold. A total of 3 pieces of frost and dew tree wood and 4 pieces of sand and gravel tree wood were sold. Lu Xi earned a total of 900 gold coins.

Lu Xi was shocked by the speed of making money. Of course, she still had some wood in her backpack, but Lu Xi was the kind of person who habitually kept some of it just in case, and didn't like one-time studs.

So the remaining wood was not used.

[Timber merchant: Does the customer not plan to continue selling? |ω`)】

Lu Xi hesitated for a moment, looked at the only wood left in the system warehouse, and nodded hesitantly, "I'm sold out."

[Timber merchant: Do you want to see our sales store? ()っ/凵】

Another game board pops up.

It was full of items for sale, but what surprised Lu Xi was that the items on it didn't look like they were produced by the game system, but rather like items she bought in a human town.

Speaking of which, this lumber merchant doesn't look like someone from the game system at all.

Lu Xi was thinking while looking through the list of goods for sale.

There are two main categories of goods for sale. One is ordinary items, with prices ranging between copper coins and silver coins. The other is elemental artifacts, with prices mostly starting with gold coins.

It is also because of this that Lu Xi feels that it is not produced by the system. After all, the game system does not specifically separate out any "elemental weapons", at most it only has "special effects".

Lu Xi was not stupid, so he could naturally see that the effects of many system props were no different from elemental magic weapons.

The list of common items includes "a gray velvet quilt", "a gold and jade tea set", "a box of white alfalfa pills", "a barrel of craft golden ale", "a ground stone sheep wool coat", etc. Eat Everything is available for clothing, accommodation and transportation.

The price is not too high, at least it is nearly half cheaper than when Lu Xi bought it in the human town.

In the elemental magic weapon column, the price is even lower. For example, an elemental robe with similar functions to Lu Xi's only costs 30 gold coins.

When Lu Xi bought it at the auction house, he spent a full 100 gold coins!
After experiencing the red dandelion incident, Lu Xi deeply realized the dangers of the other world, but after all, the elemental robe was not worn often and was inconvenient.

Looking at the various cheap elemental magic weapons on the system panel, Lu Xi started the "buy, buy, buy" state.

Bought a defensive bracelet for 61 gold coins.

I bought a defensive necklace for 83 gold coins.

A ring with defensive function, bought for 115 gold coins.

……

[System prompt: The player has insufficient purchase quota and cannot purchase this item. 】

The system prompt that suddenly popped up stopped Lu Xi from continuing to chop his hands.

Lu Xi was unhappy. She was doing the math. She had only spent a few hundred gold coins. In addition to the gold coins she had just sold, she still had a deposit of more than 1000 gold coins. Why was the balance insufficient?

But taking a closer look, Lu Xi found that it said "purchase amount."

Only then did she realize that there was a number in the lower right corner of the game panel.

[Purchase amount: (867/900)]

Therefore, the purchase amount is actually the value of the goods she sold to the timber merchant. How much she sells to the timber merchant is how much "discounted items" she can buy from the timber merchant.

No wonder the prices here are so cheap.

Lu Xi was stunned. He looked at the item that he was about to buy but failed due to insufficient purchase limit. Lu Xi had no intention of buying it.

Although he could increase his purchase limit by collecting some wood and selling it to a timber merchant, Lu Xi bought a lot of things, and this was not the least of them. It was good if he could buy it, and it would be a loss if he couldn't.

Compared with this, Lu Xi was more curious about another thing.

"After completing this transaction, will you show up next time?"

[Lumber Merchant: *(ˊˋ*)*I will appear at any time whenever the customer needs me~】

[Timber Merchant: However, please prepare goods worth more than 500 gold coins in advance. If the value of the goods is too low, the summoning may fail ()]

There are always people worried about Lu Xi's safety.

But actually, you don’t have to worry about this at all…

Not counting Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo, the only people who can pose a threat to Lu Xi are the village chief Luli and the Dragon Hunting Mercenary Group.

But the village chief of Luli has to worry about his family in Kuva Village and will not do anything to Lu Xi.

Although the Dragon Hunting Mercenary Group are not absolutely good people, they will not do anything to attack innocent people.

If you want to ask why.

Of course it's because they won't do it, so I wrote about their appearance (shock sound)

With Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zuo, Lu Xi can walk sideways in most situations.

In addition, Lu Xi himself is not without power.

Don’t ignore the props given by the game system!They all have other uses!
