Chapter 200 Seaweed Seaweed 7
Go buy a fish tank, buy a glass fish tank!
Xining lay in the barrel filled with sea water, extremely happy.
Think about it, you can lie in a spacious transparent fish tank and see all the beautiful scenery around you, even though there is a cemetery outside John's house.
When we arrived at the glass workshop, it was so hot inside. The furnace was filled with red glass solution that became hot after heating.
The glass master inserts the hollow metal stick into the glass solution, turns up a ball of glass solution, and starts blowing. Air is poured into the middle of the glass solution and it begins to grow. Then the master uses various metal tools to knead and shape the glass into the desired shape. Finally, it cools and turns into exquisite and transparent glass vessels.
"How big a fish tank do you want?" asked the owner of the glass workshop.
Xining jumped out of the bucket, stretched out completely and lay on the table: "Just like this, half the height."
The boss looked at the long strip of green wet seaweed on the table, and couldn't help but laugh: "Such a wood elf can just be put into the space, why do you need to build a fish tank and keep it outside?"
Xining sat up suddenly, stared with dissatisfaction and asked: "Do you still want to do business?" Believe it or not, he will come over at night and smash your glass to pieces.
John explained helplessly: "If it gets more sun, it will grow faster. If it wants a glass one, just get it one."
Just put it in a wooden barrel, but it must be made of glass. Look, this kid doesn't have much money, and he doesn't pamper his summoned beast like this.
The boss glanced at the barrel: "Then it's 6 feet long, 3 feet wide, and 2 feet high."
Three feet is almost one meter, and six feet is approximately one meter nine. Does it have to be that big? Xining also found it strange that she was only half a meter tall and her roots were less than one meter spread out.
What the boss said was to the point: "Seaweed grows very fast. If you want to get a glass tank, buy a bigger one so that you don't have to replace it later. Otherwise, if you get such a big glass tank back, you will have to sell it to me at a low price." Not cost-effective.”
John asked: "Let's make it according to your size. How much does it cost?"
The boss stretched out a finger: "A gold coin."
John was shocked: "It's so expensive. Two silver coins are not enough."
"That's a 3-foot-long fish tank. The bigger the fish tank, the harder it is to work on. The double-layered glass is guaranteed to be water-proof and can last a lifetime. Even if it grows to five or ten meters, it can still fit in. I still pack it. I think the transportation cost is expensive. I’ll give you a 20% discount and you can transport it back yourself. I won’t care if it gets damaged on the way.”
"If you don't believe there are two glass shops here, go and ask about the price. I guarantee that the only one is expensive. Even if they are willing to accept it for a gold coin, I dare say the glass is thicker than what I use. As long as you don't knock it, even if it freezes in winter, it won't stop. If you put hot water in it, will it last a lifetime?”
The boss was very confident in what he said, and this store was indeed very fair. John had inquired about it all before.
Xining nodded immediately, OK, OK!
But John hesitated and bent down: "Why don't we book a smaller one? I won't have enough tuition for the next semester."
Xining pursed his lips: "Master, I want a big tank, a big one, a big one! Xining wants to accompany the master for a lifetime, and I want a big tank!!!"
Thinking that Xi Ning also earned this gold coin, although John felt distressed, he still took out the gold coin and handed it over.
But the gold coin was immediately snatched by Xining. Xining held the gold coin in his hands and said, "See, here is the money. The fish tank is made and sent to the Magic Academy. Cash on delivery. If it is smashed or touched along the way, you are responsible. ”
The boss smiled bitterly: "Are you a seaweed? Why are you so cunning? How do I know whether your gold coins are real or fake?"
Xining's roots were more flexible than human fingers. He flicked the gold coin upwards, and there was a clear and loud sound: "Did you hear it? Only gold can make such a sound. When will it be ready?"
The boss heard the sound of gold and thought for a moment: "We will do it today. I will push back all the orders and do this first. If you want, just wait for two hours, and then we will ship it to the place you mentioned. Place the goods at the designated location and pay.”
"We'll wait!" Xining jumped back into the barrel and waited happily.
The boss looked at the seaweed and then looked at John. It seems like this human being is the master, right?
John said helplessly: "We are waiting." The glass workshop suddenly became busy. The glass solution was poured on a metal table in a thick layer and evenly spread with a metal plate. After cooling, it is a transparent glass block.
The five pieces of glass are ready and the splicing begins. This is a technical job. The boss asked someone to bring in the glass and said it was a professional secret and would not be shared with outsiders.
After another half an hour, a huge fish tank was carried out by six masters.
Xining looked at the interface carefully. It was actually made of glass. It seemed to be natural. This craftsmanship was definitely worth a gold coin.
We loaded onto the oxcart. The wheels of the oxcart in the glass workshop were all tied with cloth strips to avoid vibration.
Everyone was sitting next to the fish tank and following the ox cart to the Magic Academy.
It caused a sensation along the way, and many people didn't know what it was for.
Some people say they raise swordfish, others say they raise sharks. The immediate rebuttal was that swordfish and sharks are bigger, and this kind of fish tank still cannot fit in it.
So some people said that they had caught a mermaid, and this fish tank was used to raise mermaids.
There were many people watching the excitement along the way, and John felt for the first time that so many people were paying attention to what he was doing.
In the past, when I decorated it at a party, no matter how many flowers there were, others would only take a glance at them.
When they arrived at the Magic Academy, the ox cart continued to drive, attracting students from the Magic Academy to watch.
"What is this for?" someone asked.
Watermed sneered: "Of course it's for summoned beasts."
"Why does a summoned beast need such a big fish tank...could it be a legendary sea beast?"
Watermed had a look of disdain on his face: "It's the seaweed in that straw bag and bucket."
"Seaweed?" The students suddenly laughed.
Hearing the jeers, John blushed and lowered his head. Seeing the seaweed in the bucket, she looked at him with wide eyes.
He stretched out his hand and touched Seaweed's head. This gold coin was brought from Seaweed, so what if it wants the fish tank? Live your own life and let others have their say.
The fish tank was brought inside the house, near the window. After putting down the fish tank, the boss who accompanied him asked for gold coins.
Xining rolled his eyes: "Why are you so anxious? Fill it with water and take a look. What if it leaks?"
It makes sense, and the boss can’t refute it!
John opened the door to the space, and Xining fetched buckets of seawater from the "sea" of space and handed it to John. John poured seawater into the extra-large fish tank.
How long would it take for these barrels to arrive, and John couldn't move them anymore, so the boss asked his assistants to help him, borrowed seven or eight barrels, and threw them into the space.
Xi Ning used her many roots to continuously fetch water and pass it out. After receiving it, people outside poured seawater into the glass tank, and then handed the empty wooden bucket to the roots that poked out of the space.
