Just after seeing off her sister and w.a.n.g Xiao, Su Jing received a call from Peng Ming.
Peng Ming"s excited voice rang from the phone: "A"Jing, your cricket is absolutely amazing. It"s a monster in the fighting."
Su Jing smiled, although he had never seen the fight but that cricket had eaten so many Immortal World leaves, so he was not surprised by the fight result. He said: "I haven"t seen it fight. How fierce is it?"
Peng Ming spoke very quickly: "In the first three games, there was no trick at all. The barking scared the opponent away. In the next few games, almost all of them were killed in seconds, either by pressing the opponent down directly or by biting the whiskers or thighs of the opponent. It was fast, accurate and ruthless. A famous black general was defeated by it. Everyone at the cricket compet.i.tion was crazy about it. Many people wanted to buy it. The price was higher than one. Finally, the owner I accompanied made the highest bid - 50,000, do you wanna sell or not?
Su Jing couldn"t help but be amazed. Although many people loved seeing cricket fight and some people even gamble privately, the general bet is not as big as a bulldog fighting, so the price will not be so outrageous. Generally, 20,000 can be regarded as the sky-high price, So the high price of 50,000 can be imagined.
But Su Jing said: "Do not sell it."
Peng Ming was surprised: "You are not selling it at Fifty thousand? Didn"t you say it"s just a bug?"
Su Jing smiled and said, "I can still produce a lot of crickets that are slightly worse than it, but much stronger than the average cricket, What do you think?"
Peng Ming immediately understood Su Jing"s intentions and was excited: "Really?"
Su Jing said: "What would I gain from lying to you? Keep the crickets and take them to fight when you have time to increase your and crickets reputation, and keep in contact with those who scramble for crickets. Then we will sell slightly worse crickets for about 5000-10000, we can earn a lot.
Su Jing didn"t sell that cricket mainly because it ate too much of the fallen leaves of Immortal World and grew well. If that cricket was sold, it would raise the level of market crickets too much at once. It would cost too much to raise another cricket at the same level as that one. So, it"s better to keep the cricket, control the market level by himself, and then choose some other good varieties to cultivate and feed them with less deciduous leaves, Even after eating the deciduous leaves, the crickets will be top cla.s.s commodities in the market.
Su Jing discussed with Peng Ming, Su Jing will train the crickets and then he will give them to Peng Ming to sell. Su Jing apparently gave the benefit to Peng Ming, even if it was 30% of the total, which was estimated to be higher than Peng Ming"s salary.
Su Jing went to the flower and bird market and picked up one hundred of them at a time, an average of thirty yuan. These crickets are actually better than those that Su Jing had cultivated before. Originally it was just a very common cricket. He estimated that he can only sell for five yuan. Therefore, these crickets should be better cultivated and they can earn him more money.
Su Jing divides a large box into more than one hundred pieces with plaid plastic panels. A Plaid holds a cricket. Crickets can"t be kept together. Otherwise, they will fight on their own. When they fight, they will lose arms or legs and his effort will become meaningless.
Su Jing didn"t understand this when he was a child. One day, he had good luck. He caught dozens of crickets in the field one morning and was very happy. But because of the limited tools, he put them all in a single jar. Who knows when he brought them back, he found that almost no cricket was intact and the worst one had only two legs left. Su Jing was depressed for many days.
After settling in the crickets, Su Jing picked out some "Morpho Helena" larvae and cultured them with Immortal World deciduous leaves. Those raised with ordinary leaves still grew very slowly, which is convenient for Su Jing to manage and how much to cultivate. In addition, several b.u.t.terflies have laid eggs, and it is estimated that they can hatch at least several thousand b.u.t.terflies. Morpho Helena on earth is very weak in reproductive capacity, so it is endangered in the wild. However, Morpho Helena of Immortal World is not only more beautiful but also more powerful in reproductive capacity.
Su Jing fed some fish to Dog and the other cats before he finished. To be honest, so many dogs, even eating ordinary fish every day, is also a big expense, ordinary people really can not afford to raise them.
"Wu." The Battle Wolf runs to Su Jing"s feet and screams pitifully next to Su Jing"s feet.
"What"s wrong?" Su Jing squatted and touched its head.
"Wu Wu." The Battle Wolf called twice, bit Su Jing"s trousers feet and walked aside. Su Jing had to follow him until he came to the fridge and stopped. The Battle Wolf jumped onto the fridge, clawed the lid of the fridge, and tried to open it.
"Uhh… Does this guy know that the Magical Beast is inside?" Su Jing"s eyes widened. Just in case, every time Su Jing took Magical Beast meat, he won"t let Cats and Dogs see it. After the refrigerator is closed, The smell is basically isolated, and Cats and Dogs can"t smell it. However, it seems that Battle Wolf seems to smell it, it is the cub of the horde leader level monster, his sense of smell is too good.
"Come down, don"t make any noise." Su Jing said sternly.
"Wu Wu." The Battle Wolf cried wrongly twice, but he had been domesticated by Su Jing and dared not disobey him, It jumped down to act like a pet next to Su Jing"s feet. It was not like a horde leader level monster puppy but like an actual puppy.
"Wait in the yard." Su Jing said that and the Battle Wolf ran to the yard. Su Jing took a small piece of Magical Beast meat and went to the yard to feed the Battle Wolf as a reward for obedience.
Su Jing approached the man-eating vine and found that it had more buds on it, counting dozens or so, but it had not yet opened. Look at its feet, three of the thirteen willow branches boars green buds.
"Tengteng, keep taking care of these thirteen willows and let them all germinate, Okay?" Su Jing said.
"Ayaya." Man-eating vine answered very cleverly, and reached out the cane and touched three sprouting willows in an invitation to receive merits.
"Well, I will reward you with a piece of Magical Beast meat." Su Jing got a small piece of Magical Beast meat for the man-eating vine that made it very happy. The Man-eating vine is still very naive and deceptive after all.
After finishing these things, Su Jing began to do his own thing, exercising, practicing his spiritual force, the body is the capital of the revolution, His own strength will be the greatest guarantee of his safety, the last time the old man was dying and he still had enough to kill him with the spirit force, if an unhurt master or a powerful monster came next, What would he do then?
Therefore, in Su Jing"s view, in addition to making money to build a building and keeping the secret of Garbage Station, there is another important thing that is to improve his strength to defend himself from future troubles.
Taking care of the pets and practicing his physical body and spiritual forces, Su Jing"s life is relaxed and fulfilling.
The only thing that made him a little depressed was that the 300 flower horns grew bigger and bigger. At first, they were difficult to keep. The aquarium was not big enough, they ate too much and the living environment was demanding. It was troublesome to take care of. So Su Jing decided to sell some of the inferior ones after consideration. Su Jing picked out fifty exceptional ones, changed them to another tank, and then called Xue Zhonghong.
"A"Jing, how"s your flower horn? Have they started to show yet? Five or six of mine have started, and a few of them have the potential to become kamfa flowerhorn." Xue Zhonghong opened his mouth and asked.
"I am looking for you for the flower horns." Su Jing smiled when he heard that Xue Zhonghong"s thousands of flower horns are just starting to show and some of them haven"t even started.
"What?" Xue Zhonghong asked.
"I want to ask you if you know some fishermen who like flower horn. Please contact me. I want to sell some flower horn." Su Jing said, in fact, he can sell them at the flowers and birds market, but he was worried that ordinary people would not know the goods and he would not be able to sell them at a high price.
"Coincidentally, I"m having a party with a group of friends who like to keep flower horn, but are you sure you want to sell them?" Xue Zhonghong has some doubts. Nowadays, newly hatched fish would seldom start to show their protruding forehead. Even their color and shape are not good enough. He shouldn"t even sell sub-finished products. Is Su Jing is still short of money?
"Yes, you can pick some by the way," Su Jing said.
"I don"t need to. I"ve raised so much myself. Let me have a look at the video and see what they look like." Xue Zhonghong said.
"All right." Su Jing opened the video and looked at about two hundred and fifty flower horn in the tank.
"This… How could this be possible?" Xue Zhonghong"s exclamation was immediately heard.
"What happened to Old Xue?"
"What"s the fuss about."
Several people approached Xue Zhonghong and were surprised when they saw the pictures in the video.
"I"m not mistaken, so many kamfa flowerhorns, and so good-looking."
"It"s only about eight or nine centimeters long. The head has already risen so high, and there is a potential for a big head."
Although Su Jing picked out the best 50 flower horn, the rest were not bad, except for a few dozen or twenty, all of them started to show and nearly half of them were red in the front half, white in the back half, with little or no pearls on their bodies, that is, the legendary kamfa flowerhorn. As senior fishermen, They have seen kamfa Flowerhorn with good taste, or even the best products worth more than 100,000 yuan. However, it"s the first time they had seen hundreds of them gathered together.
"Old Xue, who"s your friend? He"s is good."
"It"s a senior aquarist. Can you introduce us?"
Xue Zhonghong, however, watched the flower horn in the video as if he had been petrified. His mind could not be restored for a long time. He gave Su Jing only 300 flower horns. He cultivated more than 200 flower horns. Among them, more than 100 were kamfa flowerhorns. Isn"t that against the rules?
"No, maybe it wasn"t just me. Maybe he raised a lot before and finally got that many." The more Xue Zhonghong thinks about it, the more he feels like this should be the case, but there are other people around him, so it"s hard to ask Su Jing.
"Everyone, this friend of mine wants to sell flower horn. Are you interested in them?" Xue Zhonghong asked.
"Of course I am interested."
"What are we waiting for, Let"s go."
This group of people saw so many sub-finished products of kamfa Flowerhorn that they wanted to fly to the scene immediately.
So, six or seven people drove the car and came to Su Jing"s house. Su Jing took them into the hall. Before they could introduce them, several people had seen the fish tank. Then like a swarm of bees, they rushed up and marveled around the fish tank.
"A"Jing, you also got a lot of flower horns from other places to raise, and ultimately to cultivate these?" Xue Zhonghong asked.
"Oh, yeah." Su Jing smiled and simply followed Xue Zhonghong"s meaning, otherwise, it would be difficult to explain.
"I thought so." Xue Zhonghong breathed a sigh of relief and walked over to look at the flower horn, but the more he saw, the more shocked he was. The fishes were so good, Even the fish merchants could hardly get so many kamfa Flowerhorn sub-products of this level. How did Su Jing get them?
"Young man, do you really want to sell them?" An old man suddenly asked and other people were watching Su Jing. Generally speaking, unless they were too short of money, fishermen would not sell their own fish, so they were afraid that Su Jing would not sell.
"Of course, as long as the price you offer is satisfactory to me." Su Jing laughed.
"I want this one, this one, and this one, one for five hundred yuan. How about that?" The old man offered a price, Even the general fortune flower horn sub-finished products sells between 150 and 300 yuan, The price may rise for good quality, but after all, sub-finished products are not finished products, how will they grow up is still not a fixed number, so generally they are not too expensive, 500 yuan is a very high price. Of course, Flower Horn prices tend to fluctuate according to the quality, which is very unstable. Some people like the possibility of high prices, so sometimes it can not be measured by price.
"I want to buy them all. Seven hundred per fish." A bald middle-aged man said in a bold and straightforward way.
"It"s not very kind of you to buy them all. Don"t be too greedy. I"ll give you eight hundred yuan per fish." Others were reluctant and offered a price.
"Let"s do it like this, let Old Xue choose some of the ones he likes first, and then I will auction the remaining ones." Su Jing laughed harmlessly, and in his heart, he was already happy. Sure enough, experts are experts. Not only can they see the potential of these flower horns, but they are also generous.
"Let me choose first? That"s not very good." Xue Zhonghong listened to Su Jing before and said that he didn"t care about letting him choose some. After all, he is already raising so many new hatched fish, but he couldn"t help wanting to buy some after seeing so many good-looking kamfa flowerhorns. It"s just a little embarra.s.sing. Although he sent Su Jing 300 Flower Horn newly hatched fish before, the value of those 300 pieces is not as good as that of one in here.
"Old Xue, don"t worry about it, you have sent me three hundred newly hatched fish before, and now you can choose some. If you don"t pick, Don"t regret it later if all the good ones are picked." Su Jing laughs.
"Then I will be shameless and choose some." Xue Zhonghong knew that if he delayed any further then all the good ones will be gone so he chose three of his favorites. Although other aquarists seem to have some phantom pain in their heart over this, they didn"t raise any objection, after all, Xue Zhonghong is a friend of Su Jing, and he should pick first.
For the rest, the auction began, At first, some of the best-looking ones were sold at a high price of 1000 yuan, which greatly exceeded the market value. Some of the worse ones were also sold for hundreds. Those dozens and twenty that did not start were given to them as gifts. Among them, the middle-aged bald men bought the most, Xue Zhonghong said his backyard is a Water Hall pavilion.
Ultimately, more than 200 flower horns were sold, and Su Jing suddenly made 250,000 yuan, averaging about 1,000 yuan each. But Su Jing knew that if the other fifty flower horns were cultivated, the 250,000 would be nothing, and the fifty would be sold at an unimaginable price.
"Well, young man, you have so many crickets." When the fishermen finished buying flower horn and were ready to leave, the old man suddenly noticed the cricket in the corner. Crickets are not invisible things and they are on the table in the corner. It"s not difficult to spot them.
"Old Mister, are you interested in buying one or two?" Su Jing asked.
"How much is one?" The old man was obviously very interested, and his eyes were shining slightly. Other fishermen were also interested, but not as much as they were as excited as watching flower horn. They saw the flower horn as an expert player and cricket as an amateur.
"10,000," Su Jing said.
"You are too unfair." The old man was speechless for a while. Did the young man think that just because he bought the flower horns generously, he will just waste money?
"Old Mister, you can"t say that. Every penny is worth every penny." Su Jing laughed.
"Then you mean that they are worth it? Are they very powerful? Should we take a look at them now?" The old man"s eyebrows flicked.
"Did you ring your crickets with you?" Su Jing was stunned.
"Hey hey, I did bring it." The old man thought Su Jing was afraid and laughed playfully.
"That"s fine, but what if you lose?" Su Jing said quietly.
"If I lose, I will buy one for ten thousand yuan." The old man said.
"That"s not necessary. How can I buy and sell by force? If you lose, just introduce some buyers to me. You should know a lot of people who like cricket fighting?" Su Jing laughed and said that although sales were handed over to Peng Ming, it was not a bad thing to help pull some strings.
"Yes, but what if you lost?" asked the old man.
"If I lose, You can take any ten crickets here with you," Su Jing said.
"Good." The old man"s eyes are bright, although he does not think that these crickets are worth 10,000 yuan but looking at them, Their appearance is really good and they are worth about thousands of Yuan, If he can take 10, he will absolutely make a lot of money. The old man then went out to a bridge car in the yard to fetch crickets.
"A"Jing, don"t blame me for not reminding you, Old Liu is a veteran at Cricket fighting," Xue Zhonghong reminded.
"That"s alright. Otherwise, I can"t show the strength of these crickets." Su Jing smiled, not caring about the authenticity. These crickets have been feeding on the fallen leaves of Immortal World for a few days. Although they have not been fed much, they have been reborn, and they are better than ordinary crickets.
"Shall we set up a gambling game?" The bald middle-aged man said.
"Well, I"ll bet Old Liu wins."
"I also bet Old Liu wins."
"I also bet Old Liu wins."
"All bet Old Liu and a fart."
The bald middle-aged man wondered that although gambling was not possible, they were still interested and waiting for the good play. They don"t think Old Liu has any chance of losing. They think Su Jing doesn"t know the world because they all know that Old Liu is very famous in the field of cricket fighting. His crickets often win in cricket fighting compet.i.tions. And Su Jing is only a young man in his early twenties. He probably has little experience. His crickets are also free-range. Can he raise more than one hundred at a time? Cricket fighting is not expensive.
Later, Old Liu came back with a mahogany grille and three earthen jars, and crickets and grilles in the car. This is definitely a cricket lover. Playing with fish and crickets, he estimated that only the elderly can be so leisurely.
"Young man, let"s get started." Old Liu said putting the mahogany bucket on the table.
If it is a very regular game, cricket farmers would send their crickets to selected shantytowns before gambling. Crickets must first bathe in water boiled by radishes, and then raise them in shantytowns for five days (some crickets take stimulants, which can be effectively prevented). The casino staff work on their behalf and the households must not operate (cheating prevention). Five days later, they can partic.i.p.ate in the fight.
Nevertheless, it is impossible to pay so much attention to it just for two people to discuss it. Moreover, this is a sudden decision to play and it is unlikely that the stimulants will be taken in advance.
"How do you start?" Su Jing asked as he didn"t understand.
"You kid teases me. You don"t even know how crickets fight started. You dare say your crickets are very good." Old Liu has a sense of being played.
"I don"t know the proper cricket fighting rules, but my crickets are really good." Su Jing swears in an authentic tone.
"I have three crickets, 36, 38 and 42. You can choose one of them." Old Liu said.
"Er… I don"t have such a precise electronic scale. You can choose anyone." Su Jing said that and although he didn"t understand it, he probably understood Old Liu"s words. Like a boxer, crickets are weighted.
"Any one? You"re crazy enough, but I don"t want to bully you. You can choose one for yourself." Old Liu said.
"Then I will choose." Su Jing walks to the box and reaches for a lattice. The cricket jumps into Su Jing"s palm. Su Jing holds the cricket and goes back to the fence. The cricket stands in Su Jing"s palm and does not run around.
"Hey!" Old Liu and others showed surprise at this. They didn"t know that crickets could play like this. Generally, who didn"t pretend to be good enough to be afraid that crickets would run away, but looking at the crickets"smart appearance, they didn"t seem to be the kind of crickets that didn"t want to move because of their faults. Xue Zhonghong, the only one who has seen Su Jing"s abilities in this respect has a familiar look.
Old Liu looked at the cricket on Su Jing"s hand carefully again, and there was a feeling of being looked down upon, because this cricket, among the dozens of hundreds of crickets in the box, was relatively small, and its size was estimated to be less than 38.
"Little Xue, you can be the referee." Old Liu told Xue Zhonghong.
"All right." Xue Zhonghong nodded, straightened the grille, stood next to it, and then said, "Both sides put crickets in the grille."
Su Jing put crickets on one side of the fence. Old Liu didn"t want to win unfairly. He didn"t use 42 cricket. He used 38 cricket and put it on the other side of the fence. There was a gate in the middle. So for the time being, the two crickets couldn"t touch each other.
"Now you have a minute." Xue Zhonghong handed Old Liu and Su Jing a piece of gra.s.s and started the stopwatch on his mobile phone as he spoke.
Old Liu immediately plunged the gra.s.s into the fence and pulled his cricket. Su Jing did not fight crickets, but it"s not hard to guess that the purpose of doing so was to arouse the fighting nature of crickets and excite them. Su Jing also draws gourds and uses gra.s.s to pull crickets.
After a while, Old Liu"s cricket suddenly raised its wings and Su Jing"s cricket suddenly turned around and cried at Old Liu.
"The game begins." Xue Zhonghong pulled up the gate from the middle and two crickets rushed together and began to fight.
