Chapter 217 Raising humans?
He took the opportunity to tell the mermaids about collecting the seabed minerals.
Now, Jiang Wanwan could finally do business with these mermaids with peace of mind.
The first one was naturally Ruoshui, who brought three pieces of shark silk.
Ruoshui was seen standing at the front, holding one of the mermaid silks high above the star coin exchanger.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the one-meter-wide shark silk shrank rapidly and eventually became the size of a palm and was placed into the grid of the star coin exchanger.
"Oh my god, what happened just now?"
"Is Ruoshui casting a spell? Why can't I do it?"
"You are stupid! This must be the clan leader's secret."
"I think you're the fools! What kind of magic is this? It's clearly this stage causing trouble."
"Yeah, look, that thing up there is still lit up."
"Look, there's writing on it!"
……
The mermaids around who witnessed this miraculous scene immediately started talking about it.
Ruoshui was very proud and looked up to introduce it to everyone excitedly.
"This thing is called a Star Coin Exchanger. It's used to exchange for star coins. No matter how big your object is, as long as you hold it above you, it can shrink it to the size of your palm. Amazing, isn't it?"
The mermaids nodded repeatedly and echoed the praise.
Jiang Wanwan didn't pay attention to these, but was looking at the information displayed on the star coin exchanger screen!
[One piece of Mermaid yarn (3 square meters) detected, redeemable for 100 Star Coins!]
Jiang Wanwan clearly remembered that she had calculated the value of the shark silk last time. One square meter of shark silk could be exchanged for 1 star coins.
Then shouldn't 3 square meters of mermaid silk be exchanged for 99 star coins?
Is it because it is a complete piece of mermaid silk, so the system also rounded it up to an integer?
At this time, the mermaids and Ruoshui finally finished admiring the magical scene and turned their attention back to the business.
Ruoshui spoke happily after seeing the value displayed above.
"Ah, a piece of shark silk can be exchanged for 100 star coins. Can't that buy 10 kinds of delicious food?"
As for the subtle difference in the exchange rates of the two mermaid silks, she did not notice it.
Afterwards, Ruoshui directly put the remaining two pieces of mermaid silk into the star coin exchanger.
So I got 300 star coins.
Holding a huge sum of money, Ruoshui began to worry again. What should she buy?
I want steamed buns, and these new snacks are all delicious. How can I buy more delicious ones?
With her head lowered, Ruoshui counted on her fingers, and the mermaids beside her also gave their opinions.
"Let's choose the spicy strips! They're so delicious."
"No, jelly is the best. Choose jelly!"
"Don't you think that candied haws are delicious too?"
"I think potato chips and melon seeds are the best choice. They are more cost-effective."
"Apples are delicious, right? But the price is a bit high."
Ruoshui was already a little hesitant, and with so many different opinions coming into her ears, it became even more difficult for her to make a decision.
As for Jiang Wanwan, she was not in a hurry and did not urge anyone. She just waited patiently!
Anyway, today is definitely a day full of harvest!
After waiting for several minutes, and the mermaids who gave suggestions also stopped for a long time, Ruoshui finally made a decision.
"Jiang Wanwan, I want 2 apples, 2 bags of melon seeds, 3 candied haws, 3 boxes of potato chips, 3 bags of spicy strips, 4 bags of jelly, and finally 3 buns!"
"Okay, that's exactly 300 star coins!" Jiang Wanwan nodded with a smile.
Then with a wave of his hand, all the goods Ruoshui wanted appeared on the cashier counter.
Ruoshui took out a piece of shark silk and began to put the goods into it skillfully.
As for the mermaids who were witnessing this scene for the first time, they paused for a second in shock before starting to discuss.
"What was that just now? Telekinesis?"
"Do humans on land already possess such miraculous means? Should we migrate to the deeper seabed?"
"But I heard from the clan leader that this Jiang Wanwan is not a human from land, but may be from another world."
"They're all human anyway, they just don't look like us."
"Don't say it, she's pretty after looking at her for a long time. I kind of want to touch her black hair."
"She's quite cute. If all humans were like her, I'd really like to have one."
"Why raise them? Ordinary humans can't survive in seawater."
……
Uh!
The discussions of these mermaids were quite normal at first, but became a little speechless later on.
Raising humans? What kind of a joke is that?
This reminded Jiang Wanwan of the killer whales, which also live in the ocean and are known as the ocean's gadgets.
Killer whales, which have extremely high IQs, are extremely friendly to humans. They want to play with humans just like humans want to play with cats and dogs.
It's quite cute to see this kind of thought appearing in animals.
But if it appeared on another humanoid species, it would be hard to accept.
At this time, Jiang Wanwan also remembered what Fu Yu said when he left yesterday.
The leader of the mermaid tribe probably knows what his own people will think, so he gave her a heads-up in advance, right?
This made it difficult for Jiang Wanwan to blame him.
Fortunately, they just said a few words and then nothing more happened.
Jiang Wanwan paid more attention to Ruoshui.
The mermaid silk that Ruoshui took out was a little small, but the things she bought were quite a lot.
She was trying hard to make sure that the silk wrapped around all the goods would not have any gaps!
"In fact, things like jelly, spicy strips, potato chips, and melon seeds all come in packaging bags. It's okay for them to come into contact with seawater for a short period of time, as long as they are not soaked in seawater all the time!" Jiang Wanwan reminded.
Ruoshui blinked before she understood what she meant.
I quickly took out the two bags of melon seeds that took up the most space, so that I could wrap the other things tightly.
Ruoshui, carrying a package and holding two bags of melon seeds, made way for her.
The second person standing in front of the star coin exchanger was Chi Hua, who had been silent all the time.
He took out a bag of mermaid pearls and poured them directly into the grid.
Ruoshui stood aside and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"These are Elder Shatang's mermaid pearls, right? They're about the same number as mine. He used to laugh at me along with Mother!"
Elder Shatang is the mermaid who came with Fu Yu yesterday, and is also Chihua's mother.
Facing Ruoshui's question, Chihua replied briefly: "Yes!"
There are 31 mermaid pearls in total, which can be exchanged for 310 star coins.
Afterwards, Chihua ordered a new batch of goods according to the list Ruoshui had mentioned before, without thinking.
Oh, he had 10 more star coins than Ruoshui, and he also asked for an extra string of candied haws.
With these two little mermaids leading the way, the other mermaids behind them also had a better understanding of the transaction process.
Afterwards, families lined up and started trading one by one.
