After a few minutes, after confirming that no one will join in a short time, as the host of the party "Master breeder" opened the mouth and said:
"There should be no one left, let's start."
As his voice fell, after a brief silence, one of them was a little bit nervous. Can't wait to open the mouth and said:
"Is the person who can find the dragon fire fruit come? Today is the last time of a week."
Since everyone at the party was wearing a mask and wearing a black robe, he also didn't know if Natsu was there.
"Huh—Dragon Fire Fruit? Do you know how scarce Dragon Fire Fruit is in Saffron City during this time?"
Someone couldn't help but sneered.
"Indeed, and because the Wild Pokémon around Saffron City has become too restless, it's not easy to go out to play the autumn wind now." Another person echoed.
The recent changes in Saffron City have led to many ordinary Trainers who rely on wild exploration to find valuable items, or go out to capture Pokémon to sell for money, and their income sources are greatly reduced.
And while the price of Pokémon on the black market continues to rise, all prices are rising uncontrollably.
Hearing their words, the thin man who needed dragon fire fruit, the face hidden under the mask became ugly.
I don't care about the deposit of 30,000 Alliance coins advanced to Natsu in advance, but the dragon fire fruit is indeed a material he needs very much now.
At this time.
Natsu, who was leaning against the wall, said, "I brought the dragon fire fruit. The quality definitely reaches Top Rank."
As soon as his words came out, everyone in the room was shocked. All eyes fell on him.
Anyone really got Dragon Fire Fruit?
hearing this, the thin man suddenly stood up.
But before I could speak, I heard Natsu say again: "But now you know the situation of Dragon Fire Fruit and Saffron City, in order to get these Dragon Fire Fruit, I almost can't come back, So."
"You have to pay more."
This is the starting price for him.
But he doesn't care, he has a general understanding of the Saffron City dragon fire fruit market, that is, it will be robbed as soon as it appears.
He's not worried about not being able to sell.
"You." The thin man stared.
It's just that Natsu has a calm look in his arms, which makes him unable to raise his temper.
Temporary markups are all too common at such gatherings.
I don't know each other, and there is no friendly relationship. The price will fluctuate, and the price is what it is.
Natsu, who is short of money, is not a loser.
"Hey, brother, if he doesn't want it, you can sell me the dragon fire fruit at a price you set."
"I want it too!"
The assists of the other people explain what is really valuable and no market.
The thin man clenched the teeth and said quickly: "Okay! How much?"
"Fifty thousand." Natsu said slowly.
"Yes, trade now!" The thin man relaxed secretly.
Fortunately, it's only 50,000. He is really afraid of Natsu lion's big mouth, so he really needs to think about it. 50,000 is just within his acceptable range.
Natsu shrugged, took out two Dragon Fire Fruits and sent them to the "breed master". At the same time, he got the Suzuki Master's code, plus 70,000 Alliance coins.
He still knows the scale, and this price is almost the psychological price he calculated for a thin man.
After all, money is very important, but the most important thing is the breed code of Suzuki Master.
After I got the code, I turned a few pages.
"There is no need to check, the 'breed master' has identified it, and this is Master Suzuki's code." The skinny man who got the two dragon fire fruits felt much less resentment in his heart and couldn't help but say .
"It's true."
"breed teacher" nominate answered.
Natsu didn't say anything, but flipped through the pages anyway.
After all, what others say is what others say, and if you are sure that it is true, that is the truth.
After confirming, Natsu silently put it away.
He systematically learned the knowledge of Breeder, among which Master Suzuki is one of the people he has been paying attention to. He also has a certain ability to distinguish whether it is from Master Suzuki.
His behavior did not arouse "Breeder"'s disgust, but instead slightly appreciatively nods.
This is almost an insecure meeting, and caution is required.
Natsu's behavior shows that he has a high level of vigilance, which is a must for an outstanding Trainer.
A commission completed.
Some people who didn't get the Dragon Fire Fruit felt a little pity.
Saffron City can make a lot of money in a single sale of this kind of thing now. If it is in urgent need, it is not a dream to sit on the ground and raise a high price.
Dragon Fire Fruit, Natsu still has it, but after learning about the overall market of Saffron City Dragon Fire Fruit, he is a little reluctant to sell it blatantly, and he doesn't want others to know that he still has stock.
Although such gatherings are relatively secretive, after all, someone knows his identity, which is too dangerous and unreliable.
He chose to keep the water flowing.
The party continues.
On and off, some people completed several transactions, under the witness of "breed masters".
At this time, a man wearing a clown mask stood up.
"I have one thing here. I am not quite clear about what it is, but it is definitely not Normal. Anyone who directly touches it or Pokémon will be poisoned."
Said, The person wearing rubber gloves, clutching a ball of palm-size, dark and swarthy like ooze, glittering little crystal items, presented to everyone's sight.
Natsu narrowed his eyes when he saw this.
The "breed teacher" sitting on the single sofa also sat up straight.
As things appeared, a strong stench slowly filled the room.
"What is this? It smells so bad," someone complained.
"Poisoning? Could this be Black Sludge?" Of course, there were also speculations.
Unconsciously, everyone's eyes fell on the "breed teacher".
"Master Breed" smiled faintly, "Appraisal fee, five thousand, do you need it?"
Five thousand? Identification fee?
Is this what the "breed division" is making?
The money is so good. Natsu murmured in his heart.
However, identifying this thing is really not something that can be done with a single sentence, and requires a lot of knowledge reserves.
Since this "breed teacher" can hold such gatherings for a long time, it undoubtedly shows that his knowledge is rich and the identification results are reliable.
The clown man hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay."
If it's really Black Sludge, the five thousand appraisal fee is worth it.
After accepting the cash of 5,000 Alliance coins, the "breed master" chuckled and said, "This is not Black Sludge."
As soon as these words came out, most of the room People immediately lost interest.
"But." After comforting the clown man, he continued: "But it is necessary to extract the Black Sludge, if I guess correctly, it should be something left after the death of the senior Muk, with A certain degree of toxicity, a little purification, and a few more copies may be able to condense Black Sludge.
Of course, it is not pure, it seems to be mixed with some other things, which is Need to dig deeper."
A product of Muk's death?
That would be good for Poison Type Pokémon, right?
A lot of people in the room got interested again.
"I will pay fifty thousand!"
"I will pay fifty five, I will take it."
"Sixty thousand!"
"."
Standing by the wall, Natsu, who was hidden under the hood, silently and slowly shook the head.
The appraisal result of "breed division" was the same as he expected, but the final emphasis was different.
This is indeed the product of Muk's death, and it is true that Black Sludge can be extracted, but its value is not entirely on the surface, and the things mixed in it also have a certain value.
For Natsu at least, what's in it might be more important.
He didn't know why "breed division" wasn't listed. Maybe it was because he didn't find it, but Natsu guessed that it was more likely because it was very difficult to extract what was doped in it. Not to mention .
It can't be extracted, it's just a product of Muk.
And for most people, it's the product of Muk.
So strictly speaking, the "breed division" appraisal result is correct.
It just so happens that Natsu has a way, a not too uncommon but straightforward way.
So, after the bidding price gradually stabilized, he also called out his own price.
"One hundred thousand."
Hearing his quotation, "breed teacher" smiled knowingly.
He also didn't cheat on the clown man, because that thing is really difficult to extract, and even if it is said, it will not change the price much.
