Pi Xi volunteered to go ahead and lead everyone to the market.
But as he walked, Angel felt something was wrong.
When he came here before, he took a special look and saw that the direction of the market was on the right side of the display stand. Why did Pixi lead them to the middle of the square now?
With doubts, Angel and others followed Pixi to the square.
As soon as they arrived at the square, they saw a long queue in the center of the square. People lined up from the square to outside the station.
In this team were people from all races in the Mirror Realm who came to add pages to the display album.
Normally, there are rarely so many people at Piluxiu station, and they come from all major races. No one expected that this time the unexpected arrival of the singer and the Yusen clan would bring such a big impact to Piluxiu station.
Large flow of people.
Pixi, who was in charge of market management, had an idea after seeing this. He called out the vendors in the original market area and set up a long stall area on both sides of the queue.
In Pixi's own words: "In order to alleviate the boredom of waiting in line for all races, I have added some small services so that people in line will not be too trapped."
This is why Pixi did not take them to the market, but went directly to the square, because the vendors were all here.
Angor did not comment on Pixi's words, but Luigi rolled his eyes at Pixi and retorted: "Obviously he is seizing the opportunity to forcefully market. You said it was for the benefit of the people in line, but it is still Pilusi."
That set of things is hypocritical.”
Pixi explained, "There is no forced buying or selling. We just want to let all races see Pilusiu's special products."
Luigi sneered: "Stained teeth, for example?"
Pixi smiled awkwardly. In fact, he really wanted to say that the teeth dyeing shops were outside and there were no teeth dyeing services in the stall area, but he did not dare to answer the question.
No way, who made Luigi his creditor now?
Following Pixi, everyone arrived at the newly added stall area.
After arriving here, Angel discovered that Pixi was actually quite capable.
The stall area is very lively.
This is foreseeable. Pixi said that "relieving the difficulties of people queuing" is correct. Compared with dry queuing, it is indeed a good thing for people queuing to take a look at special products.
Good thing.
Therefore, the excitement is as it should be.
The reason why Angel felt that Pixi was very clever was because it was lively but not noisy.
Pilu Xiu, who set up the stall, was obviously trained by Pi Xi. Although they were on both sides of the queue, they did not actively attract customers. They would only take the initiative to explain when customers asked about the things on the stall.
Setting up the stall in such a regular manner is undoubtedly a plus point, at least the people waiting in line will not feel offended.
In addition, there is another point that is also a plus.
The whole area is very orderly.
The source of order comes from the number plates in the hands of people queuing up.
These number plates were distributed by the guards of the Jingmu clan. They were in the order of first come, first served, and the numbers on the number plates were also from small to large.
The guards of the Jingmu Clan will call numbers in order of priority, and the number called can directly enter the Crystal Palace in the center of the square.
This crystal palace is a temporary work area for displaying additional pages of the album.
This means that even if people in the queue temporarily leave the queue and go to the stall area to check out the products, they will not be troubled by the queue.
With order, it will naturally increase impression points for those waiting in line.
As for why it was the guards of the Jingmu clan who came to sign and call the number? It is actually not difficult to understand. The Pilu Xiu guards were not strong enough to convince the public in terms of strength and power. But the guards of the Jingmu clan were different. After all,
This is Crystal City, the headquarters of the Crystal Eyes Clan. The guards of the Crystal Eyes Clan naturally have a geographical advantage. Even if there are those who find fault with it, they rarely dare to go to other people's territory.
There is another reason. The crystal palace in the center of the square was actually temporarily borrowed by Piluxiu from the Jingmu tribe. It was made of crystal shells.
crystal
The Eye clan guards stay here to protect the crystal shell.
It has to be said that this temporary stall set up by Pixi did not damage Piluxiu's face, but became a plus point.
This is also a point that Angel feels very emotional about.
Faced with Angel's compliments, Pixi smiled all over his face and looked more and more pleased with Angel. However, Luigi coldly dismissed the situation at this moment, saying, "It's just superficial. Real Pilu Xiu merchants don't have such rules."
What Luigi said was actually correct, but Angel felt that Pilu's repairs were too low, and doing some superficial work would at least be considered an improvement.
While they were making jokes like this, they began to wander around the stall area.
…
Ten minutes later, Angel already had a golden bag and a small box with a unique shape in his hand.
These are what Angel gained from this visit to the stall area.
The shape of the golden bag is somewhat similar to the pitcher of a pitcher plant, but the color is golden. This is the famous golden stomach bag. It is a special transplant organ that creates a space in the body that can accommodate objects.
To put it bluntly, they are space props.
Angel didn't pay much attention to the effect of the golden stomach bag. What he cared about was the material of the golden stomach bag and its operating principle.
You must know that in the wizarding world, stable space props are still a rare thing.
There are two major difficulties in refining space props. First, materials are scarce. The space props used by wizards require a very rare main material - crystal wall microorganisms.
The production rate of crystal wall microorganisms is extremely rare. Currently, they can only be dropped stably when merging planes and making witchcraft gardens.
Other times, you can only try your luck in the void.
The fusion of planes and the birth of the Witch Garden are not common occurrences, which has led to the price of crystal wall microorganisms remaining high in the auction houses all year round.
One unit of crystal wall microorganisms probably costs between 500 and 600 magic crystals.
Generally, it takes more than ten units of crystal wall microorganisms to refine a small constant space prop. - Angel's bracelet used ten units of crystal wall microorganisms.
In other words, a small space prop requires crystal wall microorganisms close to six thousand magic crystals. And this is only the main material. The auxiliary materials may be easy to obtain, but the price will not be low.
For example, plane erosion fragments and plane growth fragments are necessary auxiliary materials, and their prices range from a few hundred magic crystals to thousands of magic crystals.
The second difficulty is that refining is very difficult. Refining space props will test the skills of the alchemist.
At least you must have the formal title of "Alchemist".
Alchemists themselves are rare talents in the Southern Territory. If you want to find alchemists who can refine space props, there are even fewer.
Two major difficulties make it difficult for space props to be popularized in the wizarding world of the Southern Region.
Many official wizards are still using disposable space soft capsules and do not have stable and continuous space props.
But now, almost 80% of the people in the inner city of Pippi Castle have a golden stomach bag, which has become a common situation, which means... the materials of the golden stomach bag are not expensive, and the refining method is not too difficult.
Otherwise, there is no way to popularize it.
Angel bought the gold stomach bag just to study the materials and refining methods of the gold stomach bag.
If it can be successfully transformed and reproduced, the value created will be immeasurable. After all, the demand for space props in the wizarding world of the Southern Region has always been considerable.
As for why we don’t resell the gold wire stomach bags? This doesn’t work.
Because the golden silk stomach bag requires polymerization energy to be used, and wizards do not have polymerization energy, so they must be modified before they can be used.
The gold wire stomach bag that Angel has now obtained is the smallest size, and its internal space capacity is about the same as a three-part room.
According to the regular price, this smallest gold wire stomach bag requires about 30,000 crystals.
Angel naturally does not have 30,000 magic crystals on his body, but perhaps it is because he gained a lot of impression points with Pixi before.
In addition, Pixi wanted to please Luigi and Laplace, so Pixi gave the gold stomach bag to Angel on credit.
Yes, it's just on credit and not as a gift.
Angel will still have to repay the debt after that.
Angel was very satisfied with the result. Anyway, after the login device was sold, he would not be short of the crystal, so he considered it as an early consumption.
No matter what happens, even if the login device is not promoted, he can still collect money to pay off the debt by reselling real items.
For example, the dandelions loved by the Telu people are just weeds in reality. If they are resold, they will be worthless. Even if the Telu people cannot buy too many dandelions, at least the 30,000 crystals needed to pay off the debt should be able to be sold.
.
After receiving the gold-wired stomach bag, Angel immediately conducted a basic examination.
It is still unclear what the material is, but the operation method is probably already understood. It requires continuous accumulation of polymer energy to maintain the activity of the golden stomach bag.
This is also why the golden stomach bag is implanted in the body, because it allows the polymer to nourish the golden stomach bag all the time.
If there is no polymerization energy, you can also choose to feed condensed crystals every once in a while, but chasing it will consume a lot of money.
Once the golden wire stomach bag is not cared for for a long time, the golden wire stomach bag loses its activity and will completely "dry up and die".
This limitation is greater than Angel imagined.
The space props used by wizards are all constant spaces and do not require any energy nourishment at all. As long as they are not deliberately destroyed, the service life of the space props is almost eternal.
However, the golden stomach bag not only needs to be fed energy regularly, but also needs to be connected to the body circulation, otherwise it will "dry up and die", which is far inferior to the space props used by wizards.
From Angel's understanding, the wizard uses real constant space props.
The golden stomach bag is a stable space prop.
Constancy and stability are literally the same, but the effects are worlds apart.
However, even if the golden stomach bag is only a stable space prop, if it can really be modified and reproduced, it can be kept stable for a long time through magic power or magic crystal.
Its sales volume will definitely not be low.
But the price is definitely much cheaper than real constant space props.
Due to time constraints and the fact that Pixi was nearby, Angel couldn't dissect and study the gold-wired stomach pouch, so he just made a cursory inspection and put it away.
In addition to the gold wire stomach bag, Angel also bought a special button.
That's what's in that delicate little box.
Inside is an ordinary button.
As long as this button absorbs the body fluids of a creature, you can quickly contact the corresponding creature within about a hundred kilometers by pressing this button.
The red button, green button and white button set up in Pippi Castle are actually this kind of button.
The effect of this thing is probably similar to the communicator of the wizard organization.
Angel also has a mushroom called the "Sound Transmission Mushroom" in his hand, which can communicate with the mother body at a long distance. The general effect is similar to that of a button.
However, the operation method and operation logic of this button are still different from those of the communicator and the Sound Mushroom.
Angel bought it back and used it for research.
As for the price of the button, it was fifty crystals. Because it was not expensive, Angel paid for it on the spot.
In addition to this button, Angel actually saw a lot of interesting things, many of which were of research value, but they were all more expensive than buttons, so Angel gave up for the time being.
After buying the gold stomach bag and buttons, our tour of Angel’s stall area was almost over.
It's quite rewarding.
However, there was one thing that puzzled Angel. Didn't the Pilusi vendor bring a lot of invention rats? Why didn't he see any invention rats here?
Angel's interest in inventing rats is actually only average. Mainly because he was the Riddler in front of Luigi before. If he showed indifference again, he would be exposed.
so
Only then will he actively ask about the situation of the found rat.
"Inventing the rat?" Pixi heard Angel's question and was stunned for a while before realizing what it was: "Sir, you mean Pi Feifei?"
"Pifeifei" Angel and Luigi were stunned for a moment when they heard the name.
Starting with "Pi", isn't this the name favored by Piluxiu's rich businessmen and powerful people?
With doubts, Angel carefully inquired about the information about Pifeifei. After Pixi's explanation, Angel realized that Pifeifei had indeed invented the mouse.
However, Pi Feifei was the first invented rat.
That is, the most intelligent inventive rat who can even write his own paper.
As for why she was called Pi Feifei, it was because Pi Feifei was very popular with a powerful man, who personally named her.
"Pifeifei didn't come to the party. If sir, you are interested in Pifeifei, you can go to Pippi Castle..." Pixi paused and said in a solemn tone, "However, Pifeifei is not for sale."
Luigi: "We're not talking about Pi Feifei, we're talking about her descendants."
When Pixi heard this, she wanted offspring, and her expression became relaxed again: "If they are the descendants of Pifeifei, there are quite a lot of them. However, although there are some smart descendants of Pifeifei, there is currently no one who can surpass Pifeifei.
And there are a lot of very stupid people out there.”
Angel: They haven’t seen the smart one yet, but they have seen the stupid invention rat before.
Pixi: "I heard that some traders brought Pifeifei's descendants this time, including the Peel family. Pifeifei is staying at the Peel family now... How about I help you find someone from the Peel family to ask?"
Pixi first looked at Angel, and when he saw that Angel didn't speak, he looked at Luigi.
Luigi still remembered the riddle that Angel had played for him before. The little hamster in the cage seemed to have some secret... He turned to Angel and said, "Do you want to see these invented rats? Or should you go to the parrot?"
Where did you buy that invention mouse?"
Angel: "..." The invented mouse over at the parrot is a real stupid mouse. Why buy it?
Although he was complaining in his heart, in order to save face, Angel remained calm on his face: "Don't worry about the parrot for now. Let's take a look at the invented mouse here first."
Luigi naturally followed Angel's opinion, nodded, and said to Pixi, "Did you hear that?"
Pixi didn't know what "over the parrot" meant, but he still understood what Angel meant: "Okay, I'll go over and ask."
After Pixi finished speaking, he walked towards the depths of the crowd.
