Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

"Go upstairs later, you can take it away after you find Ellie to register. Now let's take a look at the good things you brought this time!" Dortmund couldn't wait.

Lin Xia also readily took out the containers containing various poisonous insects and poisonous plants in the space, but did not take the unknown butterflies and flowers for the time being. She felt that the lethality of those things was a bit too strong, so she would leave it for later!

Otherwise, what if Dot suddenly becomes obsessed with research? Wouldn’t that delay her from making money?

Looking at the various colorful poisonous snakes and insects that Lin Xia took out, Dot's eyes widened and his face lit up, as if he had seen some rare treasure. He was so excited that his body trembled slightly and he involuntarily took a step forward.

These poisonous snakes and insects are colorful. Some are covered with bright patterns, while others shine with strange light. Their different shapes make people marvel at them.

"These poisonous creatures look very powerful, but it's a pity that they are all dead. It would be better if they could be brought back alive." Dortmund sighed as he leaned forward to take a look.

That’s right, Lin Xia put all these poisonous insects directly into a sealed container, sucked out the air and killed them. If they weren’t killed, they couldn’t be put into the space!

"Dotte, I picked a lot of poisonous mushrooms this time. Some of them I have picked before, and some I have never seen before. I brought them all back. Let me give them to you!" Lin Xia took out a storage bag containing 63 poisonous mushrooms of different sizes and colors and handed it to Dotte.

Dot smiled happily and said, "No, I can't accept so many gifts. I'll just pay you the market price!"

"By the way, I also hunted a giant python, but it's not poisonous. I wanted to ask if you would accept its gallbladder?"

"Of course I will!" After Dot put the mushrooms away, he immediately walked over and said, "Snake gallbladders are very effective in detoxification. I'll take as many as you can."

"Okay, then you can find a bigger container. I'll let the python out and you can take out the gallbladder yourself. I'm not good at it and I'm worried that I might damage it."

"No problem, follow me." Dot took Lin Xia through a long corridor and came to a room that looked like a dissection room. The room was filled with the smell of disinfectant, and the walls and floor were made of silver-white high-tech materials. The whole room looked bright and clean.

In the center of the room stood a huge metal operating table, with all kinds of strange medical instruments and tools placed beside it. Dozens of shadowless lamps were installed on the ceiling above the operating table, illuminating the entire room.

Dot pointed at the operating table and asked Lin Xia to put the python on it. Lin Xia followed his instructions and walked forward to release the giant python.

"This snake is really big!" Dot wore special surgical gloves and observed the python from all angles as usual. "It's a common flower python, and it's really rare and big. Although it's not poisonous, it has a high medicinal value. Lin Xia, how about selling the whole snake to me?"

"No, I can only sell you the snake gall." Looking at Dot's regretful expression, Lin Xia thought for a moment and added, "If you don't mind, I can chop off the snake's head for you. Well, after I finish eating it, I can also collect the snake bones for you."

Dot: "...You want to eat it yourself?"

"Hehe, yes, snake meat is delicious. I want to make snake soup!"

Unlike Huo An, Duote was not a stubborn person. He gave up after hearing this. "Okay, I'll return the snake to you after I take out the gallbladder. Do you want me to peel the snake skin for you? Snake skin can also be used as food, although it's a bit of a pity."

"I promised to sell the snake skin to Huo An. If it's convenient for you, please peel it off for me. Try to peel it as complete as possible!"

"No problem." As he said that, he began to manipulate the sharp tool and began to skillfully deal with the snake.

Lin Xia stared at Dortmund's neat and agile movements. Every tiny movement of his seemed to be precisely calculated, without any sense of delay. Dortmund's body was like a nimble dancer, gracefully moving through the space, and every move had a unique rhythm and sense of rhythm. His technique was skillful and exquisite, as if he had already integrated this skill into his blood.

Soon, Dot's operation was almost finished. The snake skin had been completely peeled off, and it was carefully rinsed with clean water and put into a vacuum storage bag. When he handed it to Lin Xia, Dot reminded her: "I know you have a livestock processing machine at home. You can use the machine to tan it directly when you go back."

"Okay." Lin Xia took the snake skin and asked, "By the way, Dot, if you take the snake skin, what's the approximate price?"

"Actually, we usually don't collect fresh snake skins. What we collect the most are snake sheds." While speaking, Dot did not delay his hands. He changed to a small and sharp scalpel, took out the snake gall from the snake's body neatly, and stored it in a special container.

"I'll remove the snake's internal organs for you as well! The snake's head and tail have little edible value, so I'll remove them for you as well!"

"Thank you~ Isn't snake shed just snake skin? Why don't you accept it?" Lin Xia was curious.

"Snake skin is the skin that snakes shed naturally during their growth process and can be used in traditional Chinese medicine; while snake skin is the skin and flesh that are peeled off together and is usually not used in traditional Chinese medicine.

Snake skin is thin and transparent, and has the effects of dispelling wind and cataracts, improving eyesight, detoxifying, and killing insects. It is mainly used to treat various stubborn skin diseases, infantile convulsions, throat paralysis, eye cataracts and other diseases.

However, snake skin is more often used for other non-medicinal purposes, such as eating or making leather goods, due to its fleshy texture and thickness. "

"Oh~" It seems that snake skin alone cannot be sold for money in Dortmund, so it is not a loss to sell it to Huo An.

Dot quickly processed the snake, packed the meat and handed it to Lin Xia, and began to calculate the price with Lin Xia: "One python gallbladder, 1; 4 small poisonous snakes, 5 each; 6 centipedes, one large one 6, 2 medium-sized ones, 4 each, 3 medium ones, 3 each; 2 large spiders, 6 each; 3 poisonous insects, 3 each; 63 poisonous mushrooms, 51 of which are common varieties, still 100,12 each, and 500 are special varieties, 66 each. So the total is 1G, is that okay?"

"These are all fine!" Seeing Dortmund's expression that said, "It's all right, let's pay the bill, you leave quickly, I'm going to start researching," Lin Xia immediately said, "I still have something to take out. Are you sure you don't want to take a look?"

"Ah? Anything else?" Dot was surprised. He knew that Lin Xia must have made some new discoveries when she came to him. However, in his opinion, the things in front of him were already a lot. You know, the most things the hospital received before were the seven-color herbs that could be found everywhere in the mountains and the poisonous mushrooms that appeared in autumn. If they saw a poisonous insect, it would have to be a villager who was accidentally bitten in the mountains and brought it down.

"Well, let's go to another place first. Although this place has been cleaned, there is still a smell of blood!" Lin Xia wrinkled her nose. After all, it was a basement and the ventilation was not very good.

"That's just your psychological effect!" Dot said as he led Lin Xia out of the dissection room. "Although our laboratory is underground, it is equipped with the most advanced ventilation and sterilization systems. There is absolutely no way there will be any residual odor."

"Oh, okay!" Whatever, just leave.

"Are there any special medicinal herbs?" Dot became excited again. Lin Xia was really a blessing in his medical studies and research!

"I shot several deer this time, including a male deer. The medicinal value of deer should be very high. Do you want them?" Lin Xia scratched the space and decided to deal with the deer first!

"Yes~" Dortmund said excitedly, "Deer are full of treasures~ Especially male deer, with their antlers~"

"There is no velvet antler. The antlers have become skeletonized."

"Uh~ It's okay. The deer penis, blood, and tail of a male deer are all good things for nourishing the kidneys, strengthening yang, and promoting blood circulation~" Seeing Lin Xia's calm expression, he asked nervously, "Is the deer penis still there?"

Lin Xiahan~Are you polite? Who do you think you are? Would you put that thing down alone?

"Of course it is. It has everything a male deer should have except the antlers. Don't worry!"
