Chapter 018: I'm a millionaire?
As a shop owner in the commercial district, I actually enjoy welcoming the pups right out of the nursery.
Because the items they exchanged could only be seen once every ten years.
The Nursery is a holy garden created by the ancient gods. A batch of fairy cubs are born every ten years. The creatures growing in it are all favored by the God of Light and are extremely precious.
Due to the special nature of the gestation room, the babies inside can only be taken away when the cubs leave.
This is a gift bestowed by the God of Light to the cubs. Adult fairies can only take care of the cubs and cannot take anything away. Otherwise, they will be punished by the God of Light.
The cubs collected whatever they liked from the nursery, mostly shiny seeds, beautiful leaves, and cute little stones. The blonde cubs even picked up insect shells and tree bark, which was rare.
The bark of the Kabal tree is an important material for making certain medicines. Grinding it into powder and adding a little bit can change the quality of the medicine.
If a pharmacist on the mainland obtains a small piece of Kabale tree bark, he can upgrade from a great magic pharmacist to a divine pharmacist.
Unfortunately, the Kabale tree only grows in the nursery of the Fairy Forest.
Even the fairies themselves may not be able to get it, let alone other races outside the forest.
Because there are very few cubs who like to pick up tree bark as collections.
Although the boss runs a protective gear store, he is also knowledgeable. Looking at the treasures in Shu Li's bag, he licked his lips enviously and wished he could take them all.
Unfortunately, his little shoes are worthless.
Fairies are curious but not greedy creatures. After seeing so many treasures, the boss was surprised and chose the Moonstone, which had the lowest value.
Even so, a pair of small shoes is not worth the same as moonstone.
Adult goblins don't take advantage of young ones.
"Besides shoes, do you have any other needs?" The boss took out a bunch of protective gear suitable for cubs under three years old, such as enchanted clothes, wrist guards, knee pads, forehead ornaments, necklaces, belts, etc.
Shu Li is very interested in clothes.
The clothes he was wearing were the "starter clothes" that Elsa gave to the cub. Although they were not afraid of getting wet or dirty, you would get tired of wearing the same clothes for a long time.
The clothes in the protective gear store are of various styles, made of high-quality materials, fine workmanship, and comfortable to the touch. He picked out four pieces in a row.
In addition, he also took a fancy to a cross-body bag of moderate size, which was more than enough to fit five notebooks. There were also two small compartments on the side of the bag for some small items.
The boss happily helped him pack it up. "You can also pick out some other things."
"Ah?" Shu Li was surprised.
A small stone could actually be exchanged for so many things? He felt embarrassed and felt that he was taking advantage of his boss.
However, the boss insisted that he pick some more items. He thought about it and made a small request.
"Um...do you have...panties?"
I was so busy choosing clothes that I forgot I needed a change of underwear.
This was the first time in his life that he had worn the same pair of underwear for three months. Although he washed them every two days, it was still a bit awkward. Every time he waited for his underwear to dry, he couldn't move too much, for fear of taking too big a step and exposing himself.
"What?" The boss was confused. The cub's last three words were so vague that they were completely inaudible.
Shu Li blushed slightly, scratched the back of her head in embarrassment, and stammered, "It's just... the small one I wear inside..."
"It's underwear!" Angel thought he didn't know how to express it, so he helped him finish it enthusiastically, and lifted up his robe to reveal the boxer briefs underneath.
Shu Li was stunned for a moment, and the next second, he rushed over like lightning and pulled down his robe.
"Don't show your panties so casually!" He was so anxious that he could hardly say a complete sentence.
"Oh——" Angel responded stupidly.
Shu Li had such a severe headache that he wanted to hold his forehead.
The young goblin was simple-minded, had not yet formed a gender consciousness, and had no sense of shame. Occasionally, he would do something unintentional, which would always make him sweat.
The boss was amused by the cub's innocence and laughed: "Just like shoes, they can be made to order."
He turned around and got the best snow silk cloth to ensure it was comfortable and breathable and would not make the cub's butt red and cause prickly heat.
Kumandi glanced at the blond cub who was sitting obediently in the chair waiting, and seemed to be thinking about something.
He really knows how to be shy.
When I was the same age as him, did I also have such a strong sense of shame?
It seems not.
For a long time, he and the other cubs flew around naked, never thinking about wearing underwear.
The cubs have delicate skin and don't like to be restrained. If possible, they don't even want to wear clothes.
The boss cut the cloth with a few "clicks", then took out the needle and thread and sewed carefully, and the exquisite and cute little panties were made.
Whatever Shu Li wants, the other three cubs also want.
The boss made twelve pairs of underwear at once, three pairs for each cub.
Shu Li took the underwear and quickly stuffed it into the luggage bag.
Dissio and Angel treated Shu Li like their boss; whatever he bought, they wanted too. Budno, a newcomer, valued Shu Li as a friend who shared food with him and followed suit without hesitation.
After buying what they wanted, the four cubs happily left the armor shop with Kumandi.
The boss stood at the door, watching them leave with a smile on his face.
Disio wanted a silver bow, so Kumandi took them to a weapons shop.
The owner of the weapons shop, like the owner of the armor shop, warmly welcomed these cute little cubs.
With the help of Kumandi, Desio and Budno bought suitable bows and arrows, and Angel bought a dagger.
Shu Li originally had no plans to buy weapons, but since his friends had all bought some, he also asked for a dagger.
The sheath of this dagger is golden and inlaid with tiny gems. Hanging on the waist, it looks more like a beautiful ornament.
He liked it very much and exchanged a sungold grass with the boss for the dagger.
The boss felt that a dagger was not enough to fight against a sunflower, so he gave him a pair of gloves and wrist guards to prevent him from cutting himself while playing with the dagger.
After leaving the weapon shop, the group went straight to the grocery store.
The grocery store has a wide variety of items, from daily necessities to baby toys, just like a large supermarket.
The four cubs rushed in happily and bought things with great enthusiasm. The luggage bags were stuffed to the brim and they could hardly lift them.
Kumandi was a good man and contributed his storage bag to escort them home.
Shu Li stood at the door of her house, with a bulging luggage bag at her feet. She tilted her fair little face upwards and looked at Jingjing, the top student, with her bright green eyes.
"Thank you... This is a thank you gift, please accept it." He spread out his hand, and in his palm was a red crystal flower seed.
"No need," Kumandi shook his head. To him, taking the cub to the business district was just a piece of cake, not worth mentioning.
"I'll give it to you!" Shu Li insisted, extending her hand to him. If it weren't for Jingjing, the academic master, they would probably still be lost now!
Seeing the cub's insistence, Kumandi frowned and asked, "One red crystal flower seed can be exchanged for three space storage devices. Are you sure you want to give it to me?"
"Yeah." Shu Li nodded heavily. He still had a lot of red crystal flower seeds at home! One more wouldn't make much, and one less wouldn't make much either.
Kumandi stared at the cub for a while, then took the red crystal flower seeds.
When Shu Li saw that he accepted it, she smiled happily with her eyes curved.
After Kumandi put the seeds into the storage bag, he said, "I will take time every day to help you learn the Elvish language."
"Yeah?" Shu Li was stunned. What did Xueba mean by that?
"I'll come visit again after dinner."
Without waiting for Shu Li to react, Kumandi lightly flapped its dark purple butterfly wings and flew away like the wind.
Shu Li stretched out Erkang's hand, opened his mouth silently, and watched Kumandi's back disappear into the sunset.
Is that what he meant?
Jingjing is a top student...do you want to be his tutor?
Shu Li was stunned.
It’s unbelievable that such a good thing exists!
Wow~~
Jingjing Xueba is such a great person!!
Shu Li was in high spirits. After dragging her luggage bag into the house, she invited her friends to go to the school cafeteria for dinner.
Cubs of this age love to show off, and they go to the cafeteria to eat and bring their own spoils bought from the commercial district.
"Wow, Dixie, your silver bow is so beautiful!"
"Budno's golden bow is pretty good too!"
"Angel, Angel, is the sword heavy hanging on your belt?"
"I think Sperian's dagger is the best for us to use."
"Your shoes are great, I want them too~~"
"Is this a storage ring? Great—I can buy it and wear it first!
"Do you have storage bracelets, storage necklaces, or storage earrings?
"Angel, is this a doll? Wow! It opens its mouth automatically, so funny!"
"So the commercial district is so fun? I'm going shopping tomorrow!"
"Wow, wow, wow~ I only brought a few seeds from the gestation room. What should I do if they're not enough?"
"Don't cry, I have a lot, I'll give you half."
"Thank you, a little is enough, no more."
The goblin cubs' dining table was bustling with activity. The four little guys who had been to the commercial district had their vanity greatly satisfied.
Shu Li actually didn't want to show off, after all, he was already eighteen years old, but he was infected by the friends around him and joined them unconsciously, showing off the shoes on his feet and the dagger hanging on his waist. He was surrounded by a group of cubs and asked questions.
After dinner, he made a promise to take the other cubs shopping in the commercial district after school tomorrow.
The armor shop owner will definitely be very happy.
Because the other pups all wanted a pair of shoes and new underwear.
After returning to the dormitory area, Shu Li waved goodbye to his friends, went home contentedly, and sorted out today's spoils.
He took out one thing after another from the duffel bag.
Clothes, underwear, teapots, teacups, water bottles, plates, mirrors, combs, straw paper, small stoves, tea leaves, carpets, murals...
There were too many of them, and he spent most of the day sorting them out, sweating profusely.
He really loves buying things and collecting them.
During the three months in the gestation room, I took Red Hair and White Hair on adventures every day, picking up some random things and putting them in the flower bed as collections.
He never expected that his collection would be so valuable when taken outside.
A small stone, a blade of grass, a seed, was exchanged for so many things.
Suddenly, Shu Li felt like a billionaire.
There were still many things in his cabinet, including one or two hundred red crystal flower seeds.
Shu Li went into the bathroom, took a shower to calm herself down, then changed into new clothes and underwear, feeling refreshed.
Coming out of the bathroom, he sat down at the desk and opened the new notebook he had bought today.
This is a magic notebook.
Don't be fooled by its thin appearance. When you open it, you will find countless papers inside, each one is equivalent to a hundred books, enough for Shu Li to write many, many words.
After listening to the grocery store owner's introduction, Shu Li ordered it without saying a word.
Such a magical notebook is a treasure tailor-made for him.
Made a profit!
Touching the magic circle diagram on the cover of the notebook, Shu Li felt excited.
The smooth lines, the intricate patterns, the superior quality, and the smooth paper all made it clear that they were made by a great alchemist.
He took out five ordinary notebooks, placed them in a row on the table, twisted his fingers, picked up the quill, and decided to copy all the previous notes into the magic notebook.
The project is a bit large, but reviewing the past can help us learn new things!
Just treat it as a review~
Just as he started working, there was a polite knock on the door.
Huh?
It’s almost dark at this time. Who would visit me?
“Knock, knock, knock—”
The rhythmic knocking on the door sounded again.
Shu Li slapped his forehead suddenly and remembered.
It’s Jingjing!
His private tutor!
Shu Li spread his wings, flew over and quickly opened the door.
Outside the door, a young elf with black hair and purple eyes greeted him politely: "Good evening, sorry to bother you."
