Chapter 613 Scissor Difference

"The two Supremes of the Rainbow Transformation fought to the end of the universe. The galaxy collapsed, the Great Dao was lost, and the universe was in a state of confusion..."

"Mr. Ji, I can understand the collapse of the galaxy, but what do you mean by the loss of the great way?"

A mermaid raised his hand.

The old giant clam was stunned.

It was just said casually, why would anyone take it seriously?
To prevaricate.

"What is there to ask? The Great Dao is lost, and the Great Dao is lost. Chickens become dogs, dogs become chickens, men become women, and women become men. You always like to interrupt. Can you please listen? Mr. Giant Clam, continue. Ignore him!"

"That's right, Mr. Koi, please continue. What's next? What's next?"

"Well, uh, the universe begins..."

Follow the king's way and be loyal to the king.

The old giant clam came to the mermaid tribe the day before yesterday and kept Liang Qu's request in mind.

Don't do anything else but tell stories.

Hundreds of years of experience have been compiled and sorted out to be told to young people.

It is half vernacular and half classical, with a unique flavor. The mermaid listens to it with great interest. She can be said to read the book at night and listen to the book during the day, without stopping for twelve hours, and is bombarded with information from Dashun in all directions and at all times.

There are still doubts about what the book says.

Speaking from the old giant clam himself, the young mermaids are even more eager for life on land.

The battle between the two Supreme Huahongs to the edge of the universe was fake, but listening to music in the brothel and reading in the teahouse must be real, right?

The old ideas and the new ideas were in conflict, and the relocation plan was completely scrapped.

The patriarch couldn't be tough.

You can control it for a while, but you can’t control it for a lifetime.

Don’t say anything else.

If a split occurs within the tribe and the young mermaids sneak onto the mainland without the protection of their elders and encounter bad people, the consequences will be disastrous and the tribe will also be seriously damaged.

Without young people, the tribe will perish sooner or later.

A critical moment of survival.

Quan Guangqin and Quan Yuxuan took advantage of the water and mud to persuade the clan leader three times.

That’s why Quan Linghan went to Jianghuai today, and Liang Qu and the Quan clan leader had their first meeting.

[Water Travel] Cuts through the sky and scare away schools of fish.

Previously, Liang Qu was worried that his arrival would cause a violent reaction from the mermaids, so he never showed up and let the dragon people negotiate on his behalf.

Now that Quan Linghan went to meet the officials of the Hebo Office himself, he naturally had no worries anymore.

Standing on the hillside, Long Binglin saw the "meteor" falling and asked the patrolling mermaids to stay calm.

boom.

The group scattered in all directions.

The four of them landed lightly on the ground.

Long Yao and Long Li were extremely curious and held Long Eying's hand and looked around.

Long Binglin was surprised: "You are here too?"

Long Yao and Long Li smiled and said, "The elder is kind-hearted and brought us out to see the world."

Long Binglin laughed.

"The elders leave it to you."

"Let's go." Liang Qu waved his hand, "It's not good to keep the Quan Clan waiting for too long."

"Please take this path, sir."

The patrolling mermaids held long forks in their hands, stood in four directions, and bowed to lead the way.

Such an array is quite eye-catching.

Many mermaids who were gathered around the old giant clam to listen to the story looked up, but when they saw that Long Binglin had empty hands and no gifts, they lowered their heads again.

The big tent has a pointed roof and a gentle slope, covering a large area, and the brown tent surface blends in with the mountain stream.

The mermaid swam to both sides and lifted the curtain.

Liang Qu stepped in.

Just entered the account.

Sprawling vines form benches, and fluorescent jellyfish dot the roof.

The five tiger-hunting mermaids turned their heads at the same time.

Quan Linghan was in the middle, and the remaining four sat opposite each other. In addition, there were a number of wolf smoke masters, including Quan Guangqin and Quan Yuxuan, who only had the strength of a galloping horse.

It’s quite a big deal.

But let alone [Transformation of Spirit], with Long Binglin and Long Eying accompanying him, Liang Qu did not stop.

So young!

Quan Linghan was surprised at the age of the visitor and his eyes dropped.

"Master Liang has... Long Lingxiao?"

Liang Qu sat down, bowed, and told the story frankly: "This summer, I subdued a snake demon that was causing trouble. I happened to find the remains of a mermaid nearby. I got a lot of mermaid silk and dragon silk, among which there was a dragon spirit silk. I just don't know where the original tribe went, whether they fled or moved away."

The mermaids in the field did not respond.

Mermaid silk and dragon silk are worn by mermaids themselves, and they were also sold in the past. Quan Linghan thought: "Maybe they escaped with a plan?"

Liang Qu raised his eyebrows.

"Why?"

"Occasionally, fish in Pengzeli will abandon their young when encountering predators, in exchange for a chance to escape. Or, when a tribe encounters trouble and faces being hunted, they will deliberately leave a large amount of property in the settlement to slow down the 'predators'.

After that, for some unknown reason, the 'predator' never visited the ruins again, and it took several dozen or even hundreds of years for Sir Liang to capture them."

"Slowing down the progress..."

Liang Qu took note of it secretly and didn't worry too much about it.

One is far away in the horizon, the other is right in front of you. It goes without saying which one is more important.

Let’s get straight to the point.

"Chief Quan went to the Jianghuai Lake today and met with Xu Tiling of the Hebo Office. I wonder what he thought of it?"

The mermaids looked at each other.

A bit helpless, a bit relieved.

The situation is better than people.

Today's meeting took place, and Quan Linghan went to the Jianghuai Lake again. In fact, everyone had made the decision early on, it was just a matter of how to say it out loud.

As for the conditions.

I don’t need mermaid silk or mermaid tears, I just want to “preserve” some mermaid tears.

Liang Qu returned the nine mermaid tears that Quan Guangqin had secretly given him last time the next day, and Quan Linghan had seen them afterwards.

no problem.

Since you are not asking for much, it would be impolite to talk about it.

Quan Linghan bowed.

"The Jianghuai Lake is the best lake in the world, with abundant opportunities and treasures. If I have the chance, I would definitely go there."

"Good, great ambitions lead to great talents and great undertakings. Chief Quan has great courage! He will not regret today's decision in the future!" Liang Qu was overjoyed as he leaned on his chair. "However, I heard that the tribe wants to trade with the human race. Since you want to protect the mermaids, I have something to tell you."

"Sir, please speak."

"Are there any old people here who lived during the time when the Dragon Lord was still alive?"

Eyes move.

Among the five tiger hunters, an old mermaid with an aged complexion and fins hanging down on the sides of his face bowed.

"It's me, Sir Liang, what can I do for you?"

"Let's not talk about asking for advice. I would like to ask you, old man, a hundred years ago, when the mermaids were trading with humans, how was their life? How much profit did they make? How does it compare to today?"

The old mermaid pondered, "In trade, everyone took what they needed, but now we have to produce and use for ourselves. Many things that are unique to humans are not available to our race. Life back then was definitely better than it is now."

"So the old man thinks that the mermaids benefit from the human-mermaid trade?"

The mermaids understood the hidden meaning.

"Is not it?"

"No." Liang Qu shook his head. "The mermaids' trade with humans seems to be very profitable, but in fact, they suffer heavy losses."

"Loss?"

After these words were spoken, not only the mermaids, but also the dragon people felt confused.

Mermaids sell things, buy things, improve their lives, and exchange for resources, so how can they talk about losses?

If you don’t sell, you won’t get the above benefits.

"What did the human race sell you?"

"Medicine, weapons, armor, porcelain, books, and all kinds of useful small items."

"Where's the shark?"

"Precious fish, precious plants, minerals, spices, mermaid silk, mermaid tears..."

"Compared to precious fish, precious plants and minerals, the sales of mermaid silk and mermaid tears are actually not that high, right?"

"good."

The old mermaid nodded.

Mermaid silk requires mermaid scales, and mermaid tears require life.

A mermaid can shed only a limited number of scales in a year, and can only produce one or two mermaid tears in her lifetime. The production is scarce and constitutes only a small part of the long-term trade.

The bulk of the money actually comes from other resources in the water.

"So that's it. What humans sell are all processed products, while what the mermaids sell are all raw materials." Liang Qu tried his best to speak in a way that the mermaids could understand. "The mermaids are at the upstream of the entire trade cycle."

"Upstream?"

“The upper reaches are fast and narrow, while the lower reaches are wide and muddy; the upper reaches are a drop of water from the glacier, while the lower reaches flow into the sea in a vast river.

A warrior's training has four levels and seven paths. To break through the blood level, two kinds of elixirs are needed, called blood exchange elixirs and blood coagulation elixirs. Both require the horns of the ox-horned pomfret as medicine. However, for every three cents increase in the price of the horns of the ox-horned pomfret, the corresponding blood exchange elixirs and blood coagulation elixirs will increase by three cents. "

Three cents...three cents?
Quan Linghan felt like he had grasped something, but at the same time, he had grasped nothing.

Quan Guangqin, who was standing and listening, scratched his head.

My brain feels so itchy.
