221. Ginseng Stone Hunter
In Hanhai Park, there is a special kind of salamander - ginseng stone salamander, although it is called a fish, it is actually an amphibian, and it can leave the water source for a short distance. Of course, there is nothing special about this, the most special thing is that this salamander has a special ability, which is to transform a tuber spirit plant called ground ginseng into a beautiful gem.
This gemstone is very beautiful and expensive, it is a very fine gemstone, and it is rare in quantity.
Therefore, Hanhai Park came into being as the times when a profession was born to obtain the treasure ginseng stone, which is called the ginseng stone hunter.
The number of salamanders is small, and the number of delicacies is even rarer. In order to prevent ecological damage caused by large-scale mining, Hanhai City has restricted this behavior from the beginning. No visitor is allowed to bring any detection equipment into the park, and at most one ginseng stone is allowed to leave, and 30% of the benefits must be paid. Therefore, you have to check when you enter and exit the park.
At the same time as the students were doing a quick check, a group of people wearing rubber shoes and raincoats and carrying shovel flashlights also came to the park gate, thinking about walking towards another side gate.
"Those are the Ginseng Hunters. After paying a fee, they can take out no limit on the number of Ginseng Stones. However, in the process of obtaining the Ginseng Stone, it is not allowed to borrow external forces, it must be completed by manpower, and it must not harm the ginseng salamander, and the search for the ginseng cannot destroy other plants, and the excavated soil pit must also be buried. "Ruan Tang is a native of Hanhai City, and he knows this very well.
There are a lot of various restrictions, Jiutian looked at the other party and a group of four or five people curiously, feeling very novel, and if he didn't go out, he would never know that there were so many things in this world that he didn't know.
It's just that the other party is obviously not very happy, a young ginseng stone hunter saw Jiutian's searching gaze, and immediately waved his fist threateningly: "What do you see, the eyeballs are pulled out for you Believe it or not?" Several others also raised their middle fingers at Jiutian, no matter where they were, the meaning of the middle finger is passed down from generation to generation.
"......" Jiutian was speechless, the hostility of these people was simply inexplicable, he just looked at the other party a few times without hostility, and there was not even an expression on his face.
He was a little annoyed and wanted to talk to these people.
Ruan Tang hurriedly pulled him and whispered, "Many ginseng hunters are gangsters who haven't gone to school much, and they have a very bad temper. And they know that entering the park with a large group of us will definitely affect their search for ground ginseng and ginseng salamanders, so they have a very bad attitude, so don't worry about them. ”
Nine days only then did it become clear that although the Ginseng Stone is a very expensive gemstone, whether it is looking for the Ginseng Stone Salamander or the Ginseng is hard labor, digging the soil and digging the ground, and flowing into the river, so many hunters are people at the bottom of the society who cannot find other better jobs, and the level of education is not high. It's not that all of them are gangsters, but at least a large part of the character is actually not very good.
There is nothing to theorize with this kind of person, Ruan Tang also said that the relationship between the ginseng hunters is not friendly, because the situation of a big fight occurs from time to time, the park covers a very wide area, and it is directly in contact with the edge of the protective cover, and the monitoring facilities are impossible to have no dead ends, as long as there is no major brawl such as human life and disability, it is generally not very managed.
Of course, this is only limited to stone hunters. They generally don't have any aggressive behavior towards tourists, otherwise they will be blacklisted by Hanhai Park and will never be able to enter.
Hearing these words, Jiutian no longer cared about this group of ginseng hunters. His ignorance seemed to have aroused the other party's arrogance even more, and there was another shout. All the ginseng hunters who came afterwards watched the excitement from the side, and also smiled and pointed, and said some unpleasant things to the students.
There was some commotion in the student group, and some of them were hot-tempered and scolded the stone hunters, and the atmosphere became more and more irritable, and there was a tendency to escalate.
A large number of security guards came to the park and reprimanded the stone hunters. Here, Guan Chengxuan and the leading teachers also hurriedly calmed the students' emotions, which barely allowed the situation to escalate.
But Jiutian stood on the far side of the team and saw it most clearly, in fact, the park party didn't say anything cruel to the stone hunter at all, and he even saw a security guard handing out cigarettes, but it was very hidden.
"I knew that we locals had known for a long time that the Ginseng Hunters had the best relationship with the park staff. A stone hunter has to pay a fee of 4,000 per person at a time to enter the park. You can only stay for a maximum of 48 hours. Every year, the ginseng hunters generate a lot of revenue for Hanhai Park. Ruan Tang also saw it, and couldn't help pouting angrily.
Nine days suddenly became clear, and the ticket for a tourist to visit the park was only five yuan. This money is not even enough for the cost. It also brings a lot of garbage and trouble.
He suddenly asked Ruan Tang: "How do you become a stone hunter?"
Ruan Tang was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Jiutian was suddenly interested in becoming a ginseng stone hunter, but she didn't know, and she could only shake her head helplessly. But fortunately, not far in front of me is the staff of Hanhai Park.
Jiutian walked over and asked, "I want to register as a ginseng stone hunter, where can I go to handle it?"
The staff was stunned, but quickly said, "Come with me." ”
Asking Ruan Tang to help with the students first, he followed the staff into the park through the side gate and arrived at an office not far from the gate.
"Register first, then pay a management fee of 4,000 yuan, and buy a pheromone bracelet, 1,200. ”
The registration information is very strict, and there are a lot of things that need to be filled in densely. This is to protect the park from deforestation. The role of the pheromone bracelet is to supervise, and once you stay in a location for more than five minutes, you will leave a message. In the event of a breach somewhere in the park, the park can quickly determine who has stayed here based on pheromones.
The pheromone bracelet only needs to be purchased once and can be used for up to a year, which is a must-buy for novice hunters.
In the office, there is also an introduction to ginseng salamander and treasure ginseng stone, and ground ginseng. This kind of thing existed when Hanhai City was built, and it also underwent major development, but later for some reason, it was protected here, and it was only allowed to be obtained manually, and no machines were allowed to be used. Hanhai Park was actually established later, with a history of only about 50 years.
Here, after nine days of registration, I returned to the entrance of the park and happened to see the tail of the student line. He immediately followed Groot with him, turning on the system as he went.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the quest [Brilliant Ginseng Stone]. ”
"Requirements: The host receives 5 or more Ginseng Stones, and the weight of a single stone shall not be less than 2 grams. ”
