CHAPTER 200 SUPER BIG STAG BEETLE
Hearing the sound, Su Jing, Zhu Jianhua, and Shen Jiayao turn their heads and look . It was a thin old man with a hunchback, his face was wrinkled and freckled, but his eyes were bright .
Meanwhile, several middle-aged men and a beautiful woman with a fat cat surrounded him . Su Jing was surprised to see this as he had learned that staghorn beetle belongs to the category of pets because of their unique and exquisite appearance and unusual length in beetles, so they are regarded as exquisite collections by collectors . However, collectors are a minority, most people only regard staghorn beetle as common insects . When they were shown on the stage, the audience reacted coldly as a whole, which also proves this point . Nevertheless, he didn’t expect that so many people were attracted to it . It seems that the charm of the staghorn beetle is still quite great .
” If Old Mister wants to see, then, of course, you can see . ” Su Jing took out a small glass jar from the cage, which contained the stag beetle . Looking at this stag beetle, the thin elderly man, the middle-aged women, the other middle-aged men, and others collectively breathe in the cool air, their eyes were bright and they were filled with excitement .
This stag beetle, with its brown body and a shiny outer shell, looks very beautiful . A pair of horns, like two stag horns, looks majestic and mighty, like a general on the battlefield . More importantly, it is super-large in size, the average stag beetle is 34-79 mm and this staghorn beetle is easily more than 100 mm in size . This appearance, this body length, it is definitely the king of the staghorn beetle . If any other stag beetle is placed next to it, I am afraid it will look like a small soldier .
“This staghorn beetle, did you inject artificial hormones, how is it so big?” The thin old man asked .
“Absolutely not, it is completely natural . ” Su Jing said, he couldn’t say that the pile of stag beetles from A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality were all super huge . They are big because they need to survive in a tough world and to make it more acceptable he had deliberately picked a smaller one . If he picked one of the larger ones whose size exceeded more than 200 mm long, wouldn’t it scare people?

“Young man, how about selling me this staghorn beetle for ten thousand yuan?” “Said a middle-aged man .
“I’ll give you fifteen . ” Another middle-aged man raised the price .
“I’ll give you twenty thousand . ” The middle-aged women also opened her mouth .
“Aunt, isn’t it just a bug? Isn’t it too wasteful to buy it for 20,000 yuan?” The girl with long hair whispered .
“What do you know, such a large staghorn beetle, if it can be brought for 20,000 and turned around, you can make a big profit out of it . If it is taken back to your uncle, he will be very happy to see it . ” The middle-aged woman smiled and laughed . As a rare large pet, the price of staghorn beetle is more unstable than ordinary pets . They are casually caught in an ordinary rural area and they are not rare . Many people don’t want to spend a lot of money on them but for something rare, tens of thousands are normal .
It is said that a Japanese breeder once sold a stag beetle to an insect shop in Japan, priced at 89,000 USD, which is the most expensive beetle in the world . Although, that may be a special case . That price is hard to come again, but it is not uncommon for the deer beetle to sell tens of thousands of high prices .
“I’ll pay fifty thousand . ” The thin old man spoke at last . It never rains but it pours . This lets the few middle-aged men and middle-aged beautiful woman all frowned, the girl with waist-long hair is also flabbergasted, 50 thousand to buy an insect, is this old man gone mad? Is he just throwing money?
But what the girl did not expect was what Su Jing said: “I am sorry, I have no plans to sell it for the time being . ”
The thin old man and the other people’s eyes flashed with a trace of loss as they reluctantly looked at the staghorn beetle, such a rare large staghorn beetle, they may not be able to see it again, this is a great regret in life .
“But, please leave your call information, if I want to sell it later, I will look for you again,” Su Jing said .

“Good . ” The thin old man and other people heard him and their eyes brightened and they immediately gave Su Jing their business card .
Actually, Su Jing certainly doesn’t really want to sell . Not to mention so many staghorn beetles, even if there was only one, as long as someone is willing to pay a high price, he would have sold it . However, the so-called object is rare, this level of staghorn beetle, the first can only sell high prices, and if another appears again, the price will be very obvious, so Su Jing does not want to sell casually before the speculation .
To sell, you must first publicize, let the time ferment to attract more wealthy collectors and then sell the first one for the highest price and it is also best to choose a good time to sell them . When selling, it is not only selling one, but at the same time he must contact different buyers, and sell them in a large batch through auction method at the same time to different buyers, by the time the buyer reacts, it would be too late . After all, no one can think that Su Jing has a large number of staghorn beetles at this level .
Saying goodbye to the thin old man and middle-aged woman and so on . Su Jing, Zhu Jianhua, and Shen Jiayao went to the backstage . Shen Jiayao asked the secretary to simply draft a contract about the flying squirrel . After Su Jing saw it, he felt no problem with it .
After a while, the conference ended and Guo Biting, Jin Shijia and others entered the backstage, and then some of them were attracted by the flying squirrels and staghorn beetles . Girls especially liked the flying squirrel and they wanted to hold them in their hands . Boys are comparatively more Interested in the stag beetles .
“A’Jing, how many pets did you raise?” Guo Biting hugged a flying squirrel and kissed him on the cheek and asked with a smile . A closer look reveals that there is basically no cosmetic on her face . Since the use of Youthful Medicine, her skin is becoming better and better every day, and now her skin is as pink as a baby, so she is grateful to Su Jing, and she is naturally friendly towards him .
“There should be less than one hundred . I’m afraid there aren’t as many as yours . ” Su Jing said .
“There aren’t as many as a hundred pets in my family now . It should be only you . And why are all your pets so cute? You taught me how to tame animals but it seems that it doesn’t work very well . Are you hiding your skills? Did you tell me all the key points?” Guo Biting said in a charming voice .
“How would I dare to hide things from the goddess, you have not learned the essence of your own . ” Su Jing smiled and provoked Guo Biting a wink .
“Brother Jing, this staghorn beetle looks very attractive, sells it to me, I’ll pay you 10,000 yuan,” Qin Xulan said that it made many people think that Qin Xulan was going to lose again as this beetle is worth a lot more than 10,000 yuan .
“Ha-ha, someone just offered 50,000 yuan, A’Jing didn’t sell it . ” Zhu Jianhua laughed .
“What . ” Qin Xulan and the rest of the crew stared . Several of them gave Su Jing an unbalanced glance in their hearts . This guy’s money-making skills are good that it is making them question their carrier choices of being an actor . They could have also sell pets instead .
Only Zhu Jianhua and Shen Jiayao knew that it was not so easy, the pet industry was not so mixed . They had a wide range of Pet Paradise channels, but they could not get such a level of pets . Su Jing was the only one who could make such a fortune . They don’t know where this guy got so many excellent pets from . (to be continued ^)

The year is 1969. Yancy Lazarus—bluesman, gambler, future world-class mage and fix-it man—is just a dumb, unlucky kid serving with the 3rd Battalion 3rd Marines in Vietnam.With just a few weeks left to go until Yancy gets shipped back to the States, he’s just trying to keep his head down and avoid a body bag—no mean feat in Nam. But when his squad is tasked with conducting a routine patrol deep in enemy territory, everything goes to nine kinds of hell, and he quickly sees his chances at survival slipping away.When the radio operators start to pick up some funky, dirty ol’ blues all the way out in the backcountry, it’s a nice change of pace. At least until the men in Yancy’s squad start losing their minds, turning on each other with murderous intent as the music works its deadly power within them. Convinced it’s some kind of new psychological warfare initiative, the squad leader forces the men to push deeper and deeper into the Vietnamese jungle, obsessed with locating the music’s source. What they find, however, isn’t some new technology, but an ancient spirit awoken by the terrible war. Even worse, the music is changing Yancy too, awakening something buried inside of him. Only one thing is certain, nothing is ever going to be the same.See how it all began … *** PRAISE FOR SIREN SONG:Hunter's writing is as low-down, gritty, and insidious as the blues Yancy Lazarus loves. Just like the mysterious music drifting through the jungle toward Yancy's squad, Siren Song will get under your skin and sink its hooks into your mind. —eden Hudson, Author of Halo Bound (the Redneck Apocalypse series) *** Hey everyone, this is James Hunter. This story isn't a full length novel--its a novella length work (25K words), and is part of my Yancy Lazarus series.

Though don't worry this doesn't mean you can't enjoy this one before I write the first. This is the first story I've actually published so I appreciate any feedback, be it good or bad just let me know what you think.
