Chapter 158

It is said that the price of a top-level large earth dragon is one hundred gold coins.

Of course, Lu Lin couldn't afford such a good one. With the help of Yanfeng Gang, he finally bought a large earth dragon for thirty-five gold coins.

Afterwards, Lu Lin spent nearly ten gold coins to thoroughly reinforce and renovate the building on the back of the earth dragon.

He tried his best to arrange a series of protective measures such as temperature control, sound insulation, magic supply, defense, magic blocking, earthquake resistance, fire resistance, etc.

After all, in the future, a room full of precious equipment worth three hundred yuan will be installed here, and the protective measures must be well taken.

As for the internal planning.

Lu Lin made a lot of room divisions on the first floor, and planned to use most of them as classified storage for various materials, leaving some empty rooms for future needs.

Lu Lin also left the second floor as a whole. In the future, the entire second floor will be used as his alchemy laboratory.

As for the third floor, he planned to make it a rest and activity room for other people to gather and rest. They can go up directly from the external stairs without passing through his alchemy laboratory.

Of course, he also made a comprehensive soundproofing for going up and down the stairs to ensure that the movement above would not disturb him.

After arranging all this, Lu Lin suddenly found a problem.

Before, their team was composed of two ordinary house-carrying earth dragons and a house-carrying snail.

The earth dragon where Lu Lin lived was the residence of him, Li Mi and Lan Jie. Lan Jie was responsible for guiding the earth dragon forward, doing chores in the house and taking care of the earth dragon.

The earth dragon where Jack Zhengyi lived was the residence of him, the two girls, and Tie Zhu. Jack Zhengyi was responsible for chores.

The snail where Si Li lived was her wizard tower. The affairs in the house and the feeding of snails were all taken care of by her familiar.

Up to here, the arrangement was very reasonable, there were enough people, and the number of earth dragons was appropriate.

But now with the addition of a large earth dragon, a new problem has arisen.

Who will be responsible for taking care of this large earth dragon as a driver and breeder?

Let the ferret go?

Forget it, it would be a ghost to command.

Let Si Li's familiar help?

According to Lu Lin's understanding, Si Li, as a night elf star wizard who majored in martial arts, her familiars are often functional and small in size.

The only familiar who can take care of Zaiwu's mount is a stewed marmot, and other familiars are hard to distinguish.

Moreover, the breeding and training of large earth dragons are technical jobs, and not something that ordinary people can do.

The reason why Lu Lin was able to get this large earth dragon so cheaply, in addition to the goodwill of the Yanfeng Gang, was because the Yanfeng Gang did not have two breeders who could tame high-level earth dragons before, and the relevant manpower was insufficient. Raising too many large earth dragons is not only difficult to use, but also easy to waste feed. In this case, it is better to sell it.

Looking at the big guy in front of him that he spent a lot of money to get back, Lu Lin was a little troubled.

Although it is not a big problem when staying in the city, they will always encounter situations where they need to go out of the city in the future.

And it takes time to train earth dragons. If possible, he'd better find a breeder for this earth dragon as soon as possible.

But, where can I find the right person...

Lu Lin asked around in various places in the city where he could recruit people, but he returned empty-handed.

Come to think of it, the local snakehead Yanfeng Gang is short of relevant talents. It is not easy for Lu Lin to find people with corresponding skills through normal channels.

After thinking about it, Lu Lin really had no choice but to try his luck in the underground market to see if there are any suitable candidates among these unlucky slaves who were captured.

But most of these captured slaves are just the common ruffians in the gangs outside. It is really difficult for them to expect to find high-level intellectuals who can tame large earth dragons.

After a day of wandering around and finding nothing, Lu Lin could only go back to sleep first, thinking that he would make plans after the snow ferret came back.

But who knew that the snow ferret had not come back until the next day. Lu Lin was worried, so he found Si Li and wanted her to help him ask Dun Rou to go to the school headquarters to check on the situation of the snow ferret.

Si Li naturally did not refuse, and waved her hand to send the stew away.

It was so smooth that Lu Lin was envious.

Look at how obedient other people's servants are, and then look at his own...

Forget it.

Who made his servant awesome?

It may even be more awesome than his master.

A powerful servant will have some awesome troubles. There are gains and losses, and there is nothing to complain about.

While the stew was running errands, Lu Lin and Si Li talked about the problem of large earth dragons.

The two discussed for a while, and finally felt that they might have to ask Mo Amber for help again.

She is a druid herself, so it is likely that she knows relevant talents.

In addition, as a photographer who travels around the world, although it is troublesome for others to find her, she can theoretically use her business card to contact any past client.

If she agrees to help, it should not be difficult to find a suitable talent.

While chatting, the stew came back.

It only took a few minutes to go back and forth, which was quite fast.

This made Lu Lin's heart flutter.

He got the information so quickly, either he was lucky enough to come across it, or a certain ferret might have made a big noise known to everyone.

However, when Stewed Meat told him the results of his investigation, not only Lu Lin, but also Si Li was stunned.

Dunrou said that there was a rumor over there that there was indeed a white little familiar that had never been seen before and was now negotiating business there. At first, a receptionist was talking to it. Later, for some reason, the reception manager came, and then the management of the school came, and then the school's senior management came. In the end, even the school's president came. No one knew what was going on, but they could often hear the conspiracy-like sly laughter coming from the window of the conference room.

Moreover, these sly laughters did not seem to come from the mysterious white little familiar.

It sounded like this sly laughter seemed to come more from the mouths of the school's senior management in the conference room.

Chapter 259 Is it unbelievable? Or dare not believe it?

For the whole day that followed, Lu Lin felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

The information that Dunrou brought back from the scene was always unclear, and he could not find out what happened in the conference room at all. This strange situation was even more difficult to understand.

Although it seems that at least there was no conflict between the snow ferret and the school's senior management, even the president was alarmed. Isn't this a bit too much?

Seeing Lu Lin so anxious, Si Li wanted to say something to comfort him, but she had never seen such a situation before, and she didn't know what to say.

The anxious waiting lasted until the evening. Just when Lu Lin wanted to ask Stewed Meat to check the situation for the 36th time, suddenly, a white light lit up in front of his eyes, and then the figure of the little snow ferret appeared out of thin air, and landed on the table in front of Lu Lin with a smug look.

Then it was caught by Lu Lin.

"What, what happened? Did you do anything?" Lu Lin asked anxiously.

Suddenly caught in Lu Lin's hand, the snow ferret was stunned for a moment, and then sneered in dissatisfaction, hugged his chest with two small paws, looked up and down at Lu Lin, and said: "I found that you, little guy, really don't trust me?"

"This..." Lu Lin paused.

How to respond to this.

Don't you look at your breed, can you trust it?

After thinking for a while, Lu Lin asked directly: "So what did you talk about with them? How come even the chief was alarmed?"

"Chief? Oh, that old guy," the little snow ferret was still calm, "I was called here halfway because the people below felt that they couldn't make the decision, so they could only call up layer by layer, and finally called the biggest boss."

"Can't make the decision?" Lu Lin was stunned.

Although this formula is very useful, it shouldn't be able to alarm the chief, right?

Seeing Lu Lin's stunned face, the little snow ferret sighed, twisted his body, and got out of Lu Lin's hand.

"Let's talk about it later, let me put the things down first," it said with its hands on its waist, "It's tiring to keep 'holding'."

Although the little snow ferret said it very abstractly, Lu Lin quickly understood what it meant.

It just appeared by itself now, but the things it brought were still placed between the magic world and the material world.

Lu Lin also wanted to know how much it bought, so he took it directly to the back of the large earth dragon.

Arriving at the large space on the second floor reserved by Lu Lin for the alchemy laboratory, the little snow ferret waved his hand, and the next moment, an alchemy laboratory filled with top-notch equipment instantly appeared in front of Lu Lin.

Lu Lin's pupils shrank immediately, and he subconsciously looked at the task panel.

The statistics line read: [Current alchemy room equipment value: 613 gold, 8 silver, 17 bronze]

I don't know if there is a problem with the value statistics method or what, a terrifying number that is far more than twice the task requirement appeared in the statistics line.

Lu Lin's eyes suddenly widened, and he exclaimed: "This... How can this..."

"Hey, kid is quite knowledgeable," the little snow ferret put his hands on his hips, obviously misunderstood the reason for Lu Lin's surprise, "In addition to the things you asked for, I helped you upgrade the alchemy cauldron slightly. I heard that this is a good thing they plan to keep for auction later, don't thank me too much."

Hearing this, Lu Lin hurriedly looked at the alchemy cauldron in the middle of the room.

Sure enough, this cauldron was not the one he had chosen in the product brochure, but a dark cauldron that exuded an ancient atmosphere and whose material could not be seen.

He quickly put on the crow mask and looked through the omniscient lens.

Mountain copper, shadow steel, nightmare alloy, evil star iron...

The names of dozens of precious materials flashed through his mind, most of which were top-grade materials that were in short supply. This alchemical cauldron, just looking at the market price of the materials, would cost at least two or three hundred gold coins, and it was unknown how much it would fetch at the auction.

After all, alchemists are all wealthy people. Once the auction price of this cauldron is right, it may even be sold at a sky-high price. No wonder the task statistics exceeded his budget by twice, and I'm afraid the excess was all in this cauldron.

At this time, the little snow ferret was still constantly taking out materials. He did not miss anything that Lu Lin had asked him to do, and even prepared twice as much as Lu Lin required for each item.

After all the materials were taken out, the little snow ferret looked at Lu Lin again and grinned.

"By the way, you've used this in your weapons, right? I got you some, too. No need to thank me."

As he said that, he snapped his fingers with his claws, and the next moment, a metal ball as big as a grapefruit suddenly appeared in front of Lu Lin.

Lu Lin subconsciously tried to catch it, but then suddenly realized something was wrong.

How could his little arms catch such a big metal ball...

Hey.

Don't say it.

He actually caught it.

The metal ball was ridiculously light, as if it was hollow.

But it's not really hollow.

"Is this mithril?!" Si Li looked at the metal ball in Lu Lin's hand in shock, "Such a big lump?!"

Lu Lin was also dumbfounded.

Mithril...

He remembered that one gram seemed to be worth a hundred gold, right?

Although this thing itself is very light, but such a big ball...

Lu Lin felt that his brain was a little out of order.

Did he suddenly become rich overnight?

Lu Lin turned his head and looked at the snow ferret in front of him blankly.

The latter looked even more proud when he saw Lu Lin's expression.

"You..." Lu Lin swallowed his saliva, "You robbed the school warehouse?"

The little snow ferret's face suddenly darkened.

"Alas, I have said it so many times, I never break the rules," it sighed, "Why don't you believe me? Do you think I am stupid? You have said it to me like that, do I not understand you? Do I have to make trouble until you lock me up in the magic world before I am happy?"

The little snow ferret's tone was calm at first, but the resentment became heavier as he spoke.

Looking at its appearance, it seemed that it was really heartbroken and extremely disappointed with Lu Lin.

After a short daze, Lu Lin suddenly realized something.

Yes, he is not the only one who has been looking for the right way to get along with each other.

He is trying to figure out how to get along with the little snow ferret, and the little snow ferret is also thinking about how to adapt to his current identity.

Sneered at Gu Ling as a high-IQ spirit without empathy.

For him, it is almost impossible to understand Lu Lin's emotions emotionally.

So, it chose another way of judgment very early.
