Chapter 245: Exchanging Fruit for Interstellar Products
But... Nan Qiao shook her head helplessly. She had just arrived and didn't have any interstellar coins.
Nan Qiao thought about it, reached into his backpack and felt a round object, which was a brightly colored apple.
Nan Qiao held up the apple and asked, "Can I exchange this for something?"
This apple is a very common fruit on Blue Star, but on this food-scarce planet of the Groot clan, it is a rare and precious thing.
The moment the Groot alien saw the apple, his eyes suddenly widened, filled with surprise and greed: "What kind of fruit is this? It's so huge and so fresh, I'm afraid even the nobles can't eat it!"
"This is an apple. It's very sweet, crisp and delicious. I still have some, but not many. Can I exchange them?"
The shop owner nodded immediately and said, "Of course we can exchange. One pound of this fruit can be exchanged for a flying machine."
Nan Qiao was overjoyed. She filled her backpack with the fruits from the space jade pendant, and then poured out all the fruits in the backpack.
There were all kinds of fruits such as apples, pears, bananas, and oranges. After a careful count, I found that there were a full ten kilograms.
"I want ten single-person anti-gravity aircraft." Nan Qiao said.
The Groot alien was stunned at first, then nodded quickly with a smile on his face: "Okay, this is really a big deal."
He deftly took out the five single-person anti-gravity aircraft from the stall and put them into the space capsule toy. In an instant, the huge aircraft became the size of a capsule toy.
He handed all the capsule toys to Nan Qiao.
Nan Qiao opened her backpack and put all the capsule toys into it, feeling so excited that she couldn't suppress it.
Even if I only bring back these aircraft this time, the trip will be worthwhile.
Just then, a tall figure walked into the store. It was a Titan alien.
He looked at the apple in the boss's hand, then looked at Nan Qiao, and asked in surprise, "What is this fruit? Why have I never seen it before?"
The shop owner smiled proudly and said, "You don't know this, but this is an apple. It's delicious and nutritious. It's a rare treasure here. I had a hard time buying it from this lady."
The Titan nodded thoughtfully, then looked at Nan Qiao: "Do you have more fruits like this? I can exchange them with better ones."
Nan Qiao shook his head: "No more, this is all my stock."
She knew that it was a crime to possess a treasure. Rare items could not be exchanged for anything here, so there was no need to rush.
The Titan sighed in disappointment and turned away.
Nan Qiao put on his backpack and calmly put the aircraft into the space jade pendant.
"If you have this kind of fruit again in the future, you can bring it over to exchange."
Before leaving, the shop owner gave her some special instructions, with hope for further cooperation in his eyes.
Nan Qiao nodded and left the store. Just as she returned to the path to the market, she suddenly heard melodious music.
She walked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of aliens gathered in front of a circular stage. On the stage, several graceful aliens were dancing.
These aliens have long hair with colorful lights shining on it. Their dancing is light and graceful, as if they are floating in the air.
Nan Qiao was attracted by the beautiful dance and stopped.
An Elf nearby saw Nan Qiao's reaction and explained with a smile, "This is the dance of the Star Spirits. They use dance to express their awe and gratitude to the universe."
Nan Qiao nodded. She had seen many dances on Blue Star, but this was the first time she had seen a dance as fantastic as this one.
After enjoying the dance, Nan Qiao continued to stroll in the market.
She saw some beads emitting soft light on a stall and walked over to inquire.
The stall owner was a Naga alien. He told Nan Qiao that these beads were collected from deep-sea planets and could regulate the mental power of living things.
Nan Qiao's heart moved. She remembered that when she was cultivating her spiritual consciousness, her control of mental power was not precise enough. If these beads really had such an effect, it would undoubtedly be of great benefit to her.
She asked, "How much are these beads?" The Naga looked at her and said, "One hundred interstellar coins each."
Nan Qiao exchanged a bunch of grapes for a few beads.
I went to a stall selling energy guns and exchanged an apple for a few guns.
After browsing for a while and finding nothing of interest, Nan Qiao was about to go to the market to trade when he keenly noticed the vague prying eyes behind him.
She seemed to be strolling casually among the stalls, but in fact her eyes were sharp as she skillfully maneuvered among the crowd and goods.
Sometimes he pretended to be interested in the rare treasures on the stalls, stopping to stare at them, and sometimes he quickened his pace to blend into the bustling crowd.
She nimbly moved among the tall and burly alien creatures, whose mountain-like bodies served as excellent cover for her.
Then Nan Qiao suddenly turned around and entered a narrow and crowded alley. His figure flashed quickly, passing by the stalls like a ghost.
The footsteps following behind him were a little flustered, and a few curses and exclamations collided between the vendors.
Nan Qiao's lips curled up slightly, and then she displayed a unique body movement. She seemed to blend into the surrounding light and shadow, and her footsteps were so light that it seemed like she was gliding on the water.
She took advantage of the brief confusion caused by the relocation of a group of huge creatures, passed through the gap like a gust of wind, and instantly disappeared from the sight of her pursuers.
After making sure she had shaken off the stalker, she calmly walked towards the exit of the trading market.
After leaving the market, Nan Qiao flew towards the sandy land that he had just crossed.
That barren sandy land and the rolling sand dunes illuminated by the cold light reveal endless desolation and loneliness. There is no sign of life, only the wind and sand are humming a desolate song.
Nan Qiao looked around cautiously, and after confirming that there was no one around, he took out a jade slip emitting a warm light from his sleeve.
She raised her jade hand lightly, muttered something, and injected spiritual spells into the jade slip. The jade slip instantly shone brightly, and then turned into a transparent light curtain that spread out in all directions, forming a hidden restricted space in a moment.
Under the cover of this ban, all detection and prying from the outside world will be blocked.
Then, Nan Qiao took out a capsule toy from the space jade pendant.
She twisted it gently, and with a slight mechanical sound, the capsule toy slowly opened, and a silver light lit up, gradually condensing into a single-person anti-gravity aircraft in front of her.
The overall shape of the aircraft is streamlined, like a silver eagle spreading its wings ready to fly. The fuselage shines with the unique cold luster of metal, and the lines are simple and smooth, full of a sense of technology and the future.
Nan Qiao stepped lightly onto the aircraft. As soon as her feet touched the surface, a soft blue light appeared on the surface of the aircraft, as if responding to her arrival.
After Nan Qiao stood still, she tried to lift her toes slightly. The aircraft immediately sensed her intention and slowly rose several inches.
