"Please come with me, this is the famous shopping street of our Fuji tribe. [ ] Here, as long as you can afford the money, you can enjoy and buy many things that the outside world cannot enjoy or buy.
"Suppressing the little thoughts in my heart for a moment, the black-faced man looked so respectful at the moment. Although his face was dark, the smile on his face made people feel that he was very trustworthy. I had to.
It is said that as a professional tour guide, the performance of a black-faced man can make people relax their vigilance against him.
"You can buy everything? Is it true?" As if he didn't believe what the black-faced man said, Li Yang suddenly asked with a half-smile while walking.
"Of course, as long as you have my introduction and guidance, you can enter the dark shops of all sizes on the Buying Street. And as long as you can enter these dark shops, you can buy anything." The black-faced man said with a proud look.
"Oh, then if we want to buy some fun and interesting news, I wonder if you can buy it on this shopping street?" Li Yang shrugged and said calmly: "We have tried everything on weekdays, but now we
I really want to go to some interesting places. I wonder if your tour guide has any recommendations?"
"Hey, the two young masters are quite knowledgeable about the business news." Hearing Li Yang's question, the dark-faced man's face immediately became excited. When he came here, these young men came here with nothing to do on weekdays.
The Natana Desert itself is a pain in the ass. Many young men will buy some local specialties after coming to the Natana Desert, but these are not big customers. The real big customers are those who inquire.
It is common for young men in interesting places to stay there for one or two years as long as they can attract them. After one or two years of lavish spending, it is obvious that the tour guides around them are definitely one of the most profitable people.
.
The black-faced man still remembered that a colleague of his had become one of the local millionaires within two years because of such an encounter.
"Feng shui is turning, this year my luck is coming to me." His eyes kept flickering, and the black-faced man now regarded Li Yang and the others as those legendary super rich men. Even the two of them were no longer human in his eyes.
, but a super money bag that moves and talks.
"Come with me, you two. I'll take you two to the shopping street." With a smile on his face, the dark-faced man bowed and made a gesture of invitation, signaling Li Yang and the two to follow him.
After some walking, the crowd around the three people seemed to become more and more numerous. Qi Liyang noticed that there seemed to be many carriages in the crowd heading in the same direction as him.
"What's going on with those carriages?" Li Yang glanced at a rather luxurious carriage beside him and asked casually to the black-faced man.
"Those are the noble gentlemen like you who come to visit the Natana Desert." The black-faced man looked at the faces that occasionally appeared in the carriage with an envious look on his face, and kept tutting: "As long as you have money,
, it doesn’t matter which tribe you want to go deep into in the Natana Desert, the difference is just a matter of money. Some tribes are not open to the public. If you want to get in, you need to open up a lot of joints, and the more money you need.
, our Fuji tribe itself is open to the public, and you only need a small tour guide fee to come."
"Sir, do you want to take one for fun? I'll help you organize your business as soon as you enter the Buying Street." Turning around, the black-faced man suddenly asked.
Looking at each other, Li Yang nodded: "Okay, then please help us get one."
After all, the identities of both of them are somewhat dangerous. Needless to say, Li Yang, with Ling Dong from the Ling family chasing him, even Lin Tong must have some enemies that make him wary. In addition, this trip was originally
It was a bit sneaky, and the two of them felt for a while that this seemed to be a safer way to have a reasonable goal and at the same time reduce the chance of showing up.
"Okay, I promise to help you get some young and strong coachmen and beautiful attendant girls." With a look of excitement on his face, the black-faced man felt more and more that these two employers were legendary financial backers.
"No wonder there are all those pampered aristocratic young men in this place, so that's how it is." Listening to the black-faced man's introduction, Li Yang couldn't help feeling sorry for himself that he had wasted so many days: "If we had found a tour guide from the beginning,
It should have arrived a long time ago."
Soon, the three of them arrived at this so-called buying and selling street.
The originally turbulent crowd here has turned into a swarm of people. Especially the large number of horse-drawn carriages on the street made the already congested traffic even more congested.
However, because there were so many carriages, Li Yang gained some insights again.
Among the many carriages, there are a few that are so special, because these carriages are not pulled by horses, but by people. Li Yang doesn’t know who came up with this idea of using people as horses to pull the carriages.
, but after Li Yang went to bed, he still couldn't help but feel uncomfortable all over.
"Those people, what's going on?" Li Yang pointed to the horse-drawn carriages with a cold face and asked.
"Those are the slaves bought in the Buying Street." The black-faced man smiled and said: "I said that you can buy anything in the Buying Street, and people are one of its commodities. As long as the young master can afford the money,
Men, women, children and old people, you can choose them all. Coachmen like this are the cheapest slaves, and I am planning to prepare a few for the two young masters."
"Then why did they become slaves?" Li Yang's tone was still cold.
"There are many reasons, wars between tribes, wars between the snake people and your empires and small kingdoms, and some travelers who have lost their way in the Natana Desert. Many, many reasons will make them slaves.
"The black-faced man said matter-of-factly.
"Then if I buy slaves and then let them go, will they survive?" Li Yang asked again.
"Impossible." The black-faced man pointed at the so-called 'coachmen' pulling the carriage: "Those like them are all good slaves. If they are released, they will die because they cannot adapt.
A large part, and then a small part were captured back to continue serving as slaves, and only a very small number were able to run back to their own place and survive safely.”
"And such people are definitely snake people from several nearby tribes." The black-faced man said: "Otherwise, just crossing the desert can kill those people. Not to mention some who don't know the direction.
Those snake people who ran to the wrong tribe cannot escape the fate of becoming slaves again."
"" After listening to the black-faced man's explanation, Li Yang suddenly found that he was a little speechless. It was not that he couldn't speak, but that he didn't want to speak.
"Forget it, I just want my own freedom. I can take care of things around me if I can, and I can do anything if I can't." Li Yang sighed secretly in his heart: "After all, I am not a savior."
During the conversation, there was finally some space in the crowd, and Li Yang and the others were able to pass through the gap and arrive at the intersection of Buying and Selling Street.
"Huh?" A strong man standing on the street corner pointed to a wooden box on his left hand side and glanced at the dark-faced man.
"They are charging an entrance fee. You can't enter without an entrance fee." The black-faced man hurriedly said to Li Yang. From just now to now, the black-faced man has also come out. It seems that this young man is the real owner, the one with the bamboo hat.
Mostly just a guard or something like that.
"Is one gold coin enough?" Li Yang asked as he took out a gold coin.
"That's enough, that's enough." He quickly took a gold coin, and when he turned around, the black-faced man put the gold coin into his arms and took out six silver coins. The whole process, the black-faced man did it very skillfully, except for the front
Other than that strong man, I'm afraid no one would be able to come out. Of course, it's just that ordinary people can't come out.
"Yes." He nodded slightly, and when the money fell into the wooden box, the strong man signaled to Li Yang and the others that they could enter the buying and selling street.
"Two gentlemen, let's go." Still with a silly smile on his face, the black-faced man turned around and said.
Nodding slightly, Li Yang and Li Yang looked like they didn't notice anything. They followed the black-faced man into the shopping street.
On the street, many richly dressed aristocratic young men who had just entered were wandering around, seeming to be hesitating where to go first. As for their carriages, due to regulations, they were not allowed to drive into the shopping street.
However, Li Yang's eyes did not notice these people at this moment, because Li Yang's eyes were fixed on the black-faced man. Hotels, restaurants, jewelry stores, clothing stores, this so-called business street, turned out to be just like any other street.
, is there any trace of what the black-faced man said?
As if he was a little uncomfortable being stared at by Li Yang, the dark-faced man laughed twice and explained: "I just said, this business can only be done in a dark shop. And the dark shop only entertains acquaintances. So.
What I just said is that hiring me is absolutely worth the money. If you didn’t have me, even if you walked into this shopping street, you wouldn’t be able to see what you want and truly belong to the buying and selling street.”
"Then please ask the tour guide to lead the way." Seeing that Li Yang didn't speak, Lin Tong immediately said on Li Yang's behalf.
"Okay." Without paying any attention to Li Yang's performance, the black-faced man led Li Yang and the others into a hotel-like shop.
"Stay or eat?" The owner of the hotel is a bald young man. When Li Yang and the others walked in, they immediately asked with stern eyes.
"I won't stay in the hotel, and I won't eat either." The black-faced man smiled slightly and replied.
"Then what are you doing here?" The bald head was faintly glowing. The young man's eyes swept over Li Yang and Lin Tong, and once again aimed at the black-faced man.
"This." The black-faced man smiled and took out a jade sign and said.
"Oh, well, come with me." When they arrived at the Jade Brand, a comfortable smile appeared on the bald young man's face, and he walked in front to lead the way.
Seeing such a scene, Li Yang couldn't help but glance at the jade plaque in the hand of the black-faced man. The production was not fine, it could even be said to be rough, but the jade plaque was engraved with a giant snake wrapped around a big tree.
He swallowed the snake's letter, and next to the big tree and the giant snake, the word "selling" was engraved squarely on it.
"Is this the so-called method of identifying one's identity? How childish." Li Zhan's contemptuous language rang in his mind. But then, Li Zhan seemed to remember something but smiled bitterly: "I forgot, there is no law in this kind of place.
, this is simply a way to deceive others, and this so-called identification is probably just set up by these people to make money."
"I think so." Li Yang responded in a low mood.
The deal was established, and the black-faced man didn't follow him. He sat alone in the hotel lobby, waiting for Li Yang and others to finish asking for the news they wanted to ask.
After taking Li Yang and the others to the door of a room, the hotel owner asked: "What do you want to know? I need to pay first, and then I will start to answer the questions."
"What news is the most valuable to you?" Lin Tong asked without answering the question first.
"Some more important news." The innkeeper raised his eyebrows and replied.
"Then let me ask you, if we want to know about the so-called Soaring Snake, how many gold coins will we need?" Li Yang casually glanced at the featureless room and asked.
"One thousand gold coins, no two prices." Sure enough, the hotel owner also knew that Teng She was about to wake up.
"Okay." Li Yang nodded readily.
"Then come in with me." The innkeeper then opened the door and walked inside.
Behind him, Lin Tong looked at Li Yang with a helpless look on his face: "This kid, doesn't he know the way of keeping wealth hidden, yet he is so direct? Let's not say whether what this guy from the Snake Tribe said is true, just based on
The gold coins we have on us will be very troublesome later."
Arriving at the room, Li Yang found that this seemingly small room was like a small library. There were so many bookshelves and stacked books that it almost filled the entire house.
All walls are covered with books.
"Here is the legend about the Soaring Snake God, as well as his power level, location, and specific awakening time." The innkeeper said after finding a notebook from the bookshelf and handing it to Li Yang.
"Aren't you afraid that we will be harmful to your Soaring Snake God?" Li Yang asked with some confusion while reading the careful records in the book.
"How can you mere mortals harm the great god? What's more, compared to the great god Soaring Snake, I still believe in myself more." His eyes revealed a greedy light, and the young man stroked his bald head and said.
"Even the Snake People are facing a lack of faith. It is estimated that in the entire El Continent, only the Holy Light Empire still has religious beliefs." In his mind, Li Zhan's sighing voice came out: "The Snake People hundreds of years ago
It's not like this at all. I remember that the unity of the snake people at that time really surprised me."
"The world has changed a few hundred years ago and a few hundred years later." Regarding Li Zhan's occasional nostalgia, Li Yang could only shake his head deeply.
"That's it. Here is a memory card with a thousand gold coins in it." He took out a memory card and handed it to the hotel owner. Li Yang left after getting his information.
"Sure enough, he is a rich benefactor." Li Yang casually handed over a thousand gold coins and gave it to him without even caring about the memory card. The hotel owner immediately confirmed that Li Yang and the others were rich benefactors with a large amount of gold coins.
Suppressing the greedy look in his eyes, the hotel owner made a greeting gesture with a smile on his face: "Then if you have any questions in the future, please come to me again. Happy cooperation."
"Let's go." Without any response, Li Yang turned around and left.
"It's really troublesome for this kid to be your bodyguard." After shaking his head, Lin Tong followed Li Yang and walked out.
"How's it going? Young masters, where are you going next?" When Li Yang and the others walked out of the room, the dark-faced man immediately came up to him with excitement on his face. He thought Li Yang and the others had already asked about some good places, and right now
Thinking about how to get them to spend more coins so that they can make a lot of money.
"Let's go back today." Li Yang glanced at the dark-faced man and said coldly.
"What about the groom?" The black-faced man was still thinking about how to let Li Yang continue shopping. Without the groom, he would make a lot less money.
"Okay, let's go to the groom you mentioned, and then we'll go back directly." Li Yang waved his hand and let the big man lead the way.
It wasn't until Li Yang and the others disappeared at the door of the hotel that the bald young man's face began to become ferocious, and his eyes shone with a light called greed.
"This is a place that specializes in slave trading." Pointing to the store in front of him with the sign "Pet Selling" written on it, the black-faced man said with a flattering look on his face.
"Let's go." This time Li Yang simply said two words without any further expression.
"Oh, it's you Hei Tan." In the pet shop, the young man who was calculating the accounts immediately ran up to the black-faced man happily and patted the black-faced man on the shoulder.
"Yeah, I'm here to bring you business again this time, brother." With his back to Li Yang and the others, the black-faced man winked at the boss and said.
"Okay, come and have a drink when you have time." The boss nodded understandingly.
"Okay, gentlemen, the pets that come to our pet store this time are all good ones." The boss said with a smile on his face: "I was lucky this time, I got several good products, and all of them are good ones."
It is untried and untried. If you fall in love with me, sir, it will be their blessing."
"Let's talk about it." He waved his hand, but Li Yang's face was still as paralyzed, showing no interest at all.
"Hehe" Li Yang's expression showed, but the boss was not worried at all. The boss had seen many of these usually sanctimonious young men. But every time when they saw his 'pets', they all had the same expression.
