Nono from another world

Chapter 203 The Second Way of Making Money

Old man Huo frowned, his face obviously a little unhappy.It seems that this old man should be used to others always following him, this is the first time he has met someone who would doubt himself.

A second later, old man Huo sighed a long time, dragged a stool and sat down, took out half a piece of dry cigarette from his pocket and lit it, then he started to meditate as if he didn't see Nuonuo, and sighed from time to time .

Seeing this, Nuonuo wondered what was wrong with the old man. Was it because she refused to drink this weird cup of tea that the old man's heart was hurt by her?

But Nuonuo felt that old man Huo shouldn't be such a fragile person, and he must have other reasons for doing so.Thinking of this, she dragged a stool and sat down, staring at old man Huo motionlessly.

The two faced each other like this for more than ten minutes. Old man Huo finally felt a little uncomfortable being watched. He turned his head and said angrily: "Little girl, watch the film again!"

Not to mention, it is indeed a bit scary for old man Huo to be powerful, but Nuonuo has lived for two lives anyway, knowing that old man Huo's fierceness is actually just a superficial project, so instead of showing any expression of fear, she Hehe smiled and said, "You are finally willing to talk. Actually, I don't want to stare at you like this, but I can't help it. You won't answer my question."

Old man Huo glanced at Nuonuo and said, "I know what you want to ask. You just want to know what this tea is and why I called you over. Okay, let me tell you."

Nuonuo didn't expect old man Huo to disarm and surrender so easily. He didn't recover for a while, but he continued to say: "This thing is actually not tea, but a kind of medicine powder blended. I heard that You once went to the bottom of that mine and encountered many black worms, and this medicinal powder is made from the corpses of those black worms."

"What?!" Nuonuo's heart suddenly churned, thinking that it's a good thing he didn't drink, otherwise he would be disgusted to death.But why did the old man drink this stuff for her? Did he think it was fun? !

"Don't get excited, don't look at the black worm that looks disgusting, but it is a rare medicinal material, but because it is very rare in the empire, and most people dare not enter the black forest to hunt, so the price is very expensive, just now I gave You exchanged such a small amount, it is worth at least 100 yuan gold coins!" Speaking of this, old man Huo showed a trace of heartache on his face.

Nuonuo was also a little surprised. She really didn't expect that Chasing Insects would have such value. Why didn't Nim mention it before?Moreover, how could this old man be willing to give her such an expensive drink?It doesn't make sense.

Old man Huo seemed to see Nuonuo's doubts, so he explained: "It's normal that you haven't heard of this, because this thing is very rare in the first place, and only some royal relatives have the opportunity to use it. Me too Because I stayed in the west, I had the opportunity to come into contact with this black bug, so I only have a little stock. The medicinal value of this thing is actually not strong, but after taking it, people's skin will become very delicate and smooth. After injury, as long as Sprinkle a little powder on the wound, and the wound will heal quickly. Although the scar will not disappear completely, it will basically disappear after a little treatment. Therefore, this thing is very popular among noble ladies and wives. I just said Seeing that all the wounds on your body have healed, I wondered if it was because you ate the black worm. So I thought, is there such a big difference between fresh corpses and powders ground from mummy?"

"That's why I wanted to ask you to come over and ask, but I saw that you didn't seem to have any impression or reaction to 'tea', so I knew I made a mistake." Speaking of this, old man Huo stood up suddenly, suddenly Leaning in front of Nuonuo, he asked, "If that's the case, how is the wound on your body healed?"

Nuonuoxin said that this is not 'tea', it is clearly just a cup of unknown liquid.But thinking about it, Nuonuo didn't want to talk nonsense with the old man, so he could only say, "That's all you want to know?"

Old man Huo didn't expect that Nuonuo would try to trick him, his whole face turned green with anger, but he still tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and nodded.

Nuonuo thought that old man Huo was a little funny, but he didn't show it, and said, "It's actually very simple. Think about the difference between a fresh one and a dead one?"

"The difference? Where do I know! I've never seen what the worm looks like when it's fresh! After the worms die, they will be completely dehydrated and dry within an hour." Old man Huo Speechless, "Besides, before I came here, I heard that there were a lot of dead insects here, and I was thinking about making a lot of money, but after I came, I found out that all the insects dug out from the ground were all dead. It’s rotten. Not to mention it’s ground into powder, it’s a bit difficult to bring it out.”

"Is there such a thing?" Now it was Nuonuo's turn to be surprised. She remembered that before she left, those ground bugs were clearly turned into mummies. Could it be... because the stone was destroyed?
"Otherwise, why do you think I came to you?" Old man Huo said angrily, "It's really bad luck, such a good opportunity to make a fortune, I just missed it like this! Hey! I thought I could dig something out of your mouth, but you You don’t know anything, and you’ve wasted so much of my medicine powder!”

Get rich?

Hearing old man Huo's complaint, Nuonuo's head suddenly flashed, isn't this a good opportunity to make a fortune? !Listen, a little bit of powder costs 100 gold coins. If it's a catty, wouldn't she be developed!This is much more profitable than being a tailor!If this continues, within a few years, she will be able to buy a spaceship!
Thinking of this, Nuonuo was immediately excited, but within a few seconds of being excited, she died completely.There is no other reason. Although this thing makes money, the materials are hard to find!If you can't find the material, everything is useless!
The two were silent for a few seconds, and finally Nuonuo spoke first: "Actually, things are much simpler than you imagined."

"Oh?" Old man Huo suddenly became interested, and instantly sat up straight, sweeping away his previous frustration.

"There is only one difference between the fresh ones and the dead ones," Nuonuo paused, "That is whether they have mucus on them."

"Slime?!"

"Yes, to tell you the truth, when I was underground, I accidentally fell into a black pool, which was full of corpses of ground bugs, all of which were fresh. Ever since I fell in and out, I always felt My skin was very itchy, and I didn't take it seriously at the time, and now it seems that the wound on my body may have healed at that time." Nuonuo said very sincerely, and in fact she did not tell lies, but Part of it is properly concealed.

Moreover, the reason why she wanted to tell old man Huo about this matter also had a purpose in it.This old man Huo obviously has a lot of status in the western department. If he has doubts about the fact that the wound on his body healed without treatment, then James will definitely come to him, and things will be troublesome when the time comes.So she could only tell the old man half-truth and half-truth to make him believe that it was all true. Anyway, the old man cared about the powder very much, so he shouldn't be too suspicious.

"Skin trauma is easy to understand, but what about the broken bones on your body?" Old man Huo narrowed his eyes, apparently not believing Nuonuo's statement.

"I really don't know. It might be because I accidentally drank a few mouthfuls of the mucus when I fell in." Nuonuo said without changing his face, suppressing the nausea in his heart.In fact, she really didn't remember whether she drank the sticky thing. After all, the situation was so urgent at that time, she didn't have the heart to pay attention to it.

Hearing this, old man Huo showed a trace of hesitation on his face, obviously shaken.After a while, he said: "So, if you don't go to the Black Forest, you will never know if the mucus on the black bug has this effect?"

Nuonuo nodded in disbelief, but she didn't care about it in her heart, thinking that the black forest is so dangerous, if it's not possible, you can go in specially, just to verify whether what I said is a lie?
