Chapter 13
In the antique flower and bird market of Shangjing City, Yang Yu walks freely. The street is very narrow, and there are shops next to each other on both sides of the street, and most of the shops are quite messy.
Not too many guests come here, but not too many.
At least this small street is thousands of meters away, and there is no space for pedestrians at the end of the street. Although it is not crowded, it is not short of people.
This is the pet area.
With the development of modernization and the gradual improvement of material conditions, many citizens will keep pets such as cats, dogs, birds and fish. If there are pets and there is a market, there will naturally be consumption.
Those who come to the pet area are less likely to buy pets. Most of them come to buy pet rations.
Of course, although it is a pet area, there are no less than hundreds of storefronts in the whole street, and there are always some strange things in it… And at this moment, Yang Yu walked into a shop called ‘ Five Poisons Every Kind ‘, I went to a shop with a very strange exterior decoration!
The door of this shop has been renovated into a huge skull shape that seems to be devoured by people, and the outer wall has also been painted in blood.
Such a strange terrifying facade, except for Yang Yu, passersby avoid this shop far away.
Crackling – Yang Yu pushed open the dilapidated wooden door and walked into the shop.
As soon as he entered the store, Yang Yu smelled a strange and incomparable smell in his nose. The smell was mixed with rancidity, and it seemed to be mixed with the feces of countless poison insects.
At this moment, there are many iron shelves on both sides of the store. Those iron shelves are also used to isolate and detain densely packed people with high-strength barbed wire, so that ordinary citizens can see terrifying poison insects that will explode on their scalps!
This is a shop specializing in poison insects and all kinds of alien Insects!
In the center of the rows of tall iron frames, there is an aisle leading from the door to the end of the house. At the end of the aisle, a man dressed in a dirty retro trench coat with a small white goatee beard. old man sitting behind a shabby desk.
Although his face is old, he is almost seventy or eighty years old, but the spirit of the old man is surprisingly good!
Even in Yang Yu’s induction, the blood energy in his body is stronger than the average ordinary person!
Obviously, this old man is not someone who is easy to deal with!
However, in Yang Yu’s opinion, this old man is better than the ordinary person. It should belong to the Lianjiazi… It’s okay to easily deal with three or four brawny men, but no matter how many people there are, there is no problem. In the face of modern weapons, it is even more powerless to resist.
He heard the movement of the shop door, the old man also looked up from behind the dilapidated desk, and he saw Yang Yu at a glance.
“Huh? It’s you again?” The old man was surprised. There were very few customers in his shop. It was very rare for the same customer to come in twice in just over half a month.
The old man was also surprised when Yang Yu came over to buy a batch of poison insects last time.
It’s not uncommon for people to buy a lot of poison insect poison at once.
As a result, the old man was so impressed with Yang Yu that he recognized him even after half a month!
Yang Yu said yes: “The store owner, Old Master, has good eyesight. Since you still remember me, let’s make a long story short about buying the black-striped mantis from you last time. I’m very satisfied. I need some more if I have it in stock.”
Yang Yu’s Great Mantis Beast was prepared using the mantis purchased at this store, and now that the power has broken through, he wants to form a Great Mantis Beast into a team Squad, of course, I have to come over to replenish some inventory.
This is also the reason why Yang Yu immediately walked into this strange shop instead of looking at the antique area after he came to the flower and bird antique market in Shangjing City!
“Black-spotted tiger mantis?” old man frowned: “This is a rare thing, and it is extremely wild, fierce, and highly poisonous! Youngster, you want so many black-spotted tigers What are you doing?”
“That’s not what you should ask, I naturally have my use.” Yang Yu said blankly: “Let’s make a price.”
“This…” The old man hesitated for a moment: “Since this is the case, I have no reason to drive customers out when I open the door to do business. I do have a black-spotted tiger mantis here, but this mantis is very rare, mainly from The number is not much, I still have ten left here. If you want, you can trade it now.”
“Ten?” Yang Yu frowned.
“The number is less.”
“Less?” The look of surprise in the old man’s eyes flickered.
“How much do you need?”
Yang Yu said: “At least seventeen or eight.”
The old man shook his head and said, “It won’t be in a short time. The next batch of goods has not been shipped back. Originally, this kind of thing is not very easy to sell. If you still want it, you can come over next month, when the time comes, there should be new goods.”
“A month’s delay is too long.” Yang Yu vetoed, asking, “Apart from your store, is there any other store nearby that sells this black-spotted tiger mantis?”
“No more.” The old man looked proud.
“Don’t say it’s nearby, I’m afraid you won’t be able to find a second one in the whole Shangjing City… I did this business for special reasons. Also, many of these poison insects sold are rare. An incomparable species, even a mutant species unique to the world. If you want to buy somewhere else, it’s almost the same when you go out of Shangjing City and try one’s luck.”
Look at the eloquent words of old man , and the fluctuation of the other party’s breath in Life Soul’s induction has been stable, it doesn’t look like bluffing, and Yang Yu doesn’t say more.
He was just nodded and said, “Ten for ten, let’s make an offer.”
old man raised his brows, stretched out one hand, and gestured repeatedly after spreading his five fingers. three times.
“One thousand five hundred.”
“Five thousand yuan for ten pieces, this time is a small discount for you, we are a small business, There are no big discounts.”
Yang Yu last came to buy a black-spotted tiger mantis for one thousand sixteen, and this time it was indeed a little cheaper, and Yang Yu didn’t have much for that. say what. He is running out of money now, he can save a little bit better.
Each one saves 100 yuan, and 10,000 yuan is also saved.
The money is not good enough for him to eat a meal.
Negotiate a good price, and then there will be no more twists and turns. The old man also led Yang Yu to the innermost area of the third row of shelves… There is a special box, which is separated into ten parts. A black-spotted tiger mantis!
The black-spotted tiger mantis is extremely ferocious, even if they live together, they will kill each other until one of them swallows the other, so they need to be kept in complete isolation.
“Everything is in here. As a one-time discount for buying all of it, I will also give you this feeding box.” The old man extended the hand with a smile and took it from Yang Yu. A stack of red-colored bills, while taking it over his mouth, did not stop, and the old face even bloomed with a smile.
His store business is not very good, and it is rare to have a big business, so he is naturally very happy.
Soon, the money will be counted.
Yang Yu also opened the breeding box holding the ten black-spotted tiger mantis and carried it in his hands.
This breeding box is not small, at least it weighs hundreds of pounds. At this moment, Yang Yu is lifting the heavy as if it were light in his hand, as if he was just carrying a feather in his hand. , This strange picture made the old man’s pupils shrink!
“Do you need to call a car to send you back?” The old man took two steps back calmly, his eyes fixed on the breeding box in Yang Yu’s hands.
“No need.”
Yang Yu saw the old man’s vigilance, he turned around and left with the box.
Yang Yu stopped when he reached the door.
“That’s right.”
“Are there any females among the black-spotted tiger mantis you sold me?” Yang Yu asked.
“…”
old man was silent, before replying after a while: “Of course, but youngster, why are you asking this? If you want to artificially breed and breed black If you are a tabby mantis, I advise you to give up. I have already tried this kind of thing, and it is impossible to succeed!”
“These little bastards are too cruel.”
“In the captive-rearing environment, even if the female mantis is lucky enough to reproduce offspring, she will directly eat the larvae.”
“Really?” Yang Yu smiled mysteriously.
“Then many thanks, you reminded me.” After saying that, Yang Yu walked out of the door and disappeared into the crowd of people outside.
