Lord Highlander

Chapter 239: 238. Trading

"Take you somewhere."

Hearing Suldak talk about his ups and downs in selling salamander meat, Karl could only hold back a smile and tell him.

Hailansa City is a rather three-dimensional city. Suldak led the horse and followed Karl up the street. The foundations of the houses on both sides of the street are inclined. In order to keep the building level, each building has an independent The foundation, so all the shops on this street have several steps at the entrance. The steps are not directly facing the door, but are built against the wall of the building. Some shops have some rain shelters built on the steps. The style is similar to that of Bena City. A big difference.

Hearing that Surdak followed the villagers into the Pagros Mountains to hunt gray rock iguanas, Karl said with great emotion: "Every year, I hear that some lizard hunting groups in the village disappear in the Pagros Mountains. Although this barren land is barren, monsters often appear in the mountains. The Knights of Hailansa City also organized demon hunters to hunt those sand wolves, poison-tailed sand scorpions, and carrion vultures. There was no gain, and when I wanted to organize such an action later, there were high voices, but no one wanted to go, and it always ended without a problem every time, and no one discussed this matter in the past two years."

The gutter on the side of the street in Hailansa City is covered with stone slabs. Several Hailansa women are squatting beside the ditch and washing vegetables. The copper basins are full of green leaves. They wear long gray and white striped skirts and gather around Chatting while washing vegetables together, it seems that life is also very simple.

Suldak thought that this hunting experience was actually quite smooth, so he said to Karl:

"We also saw a group of sand wolves this time, but those guys were very cunning. When they saw our lizard hunting group, they left without a sound."

Although Suldak didn't go into details, Karl felt that the process must be thrilling.

The sand wolves in the Pagros Mountains are notoriously difficult to deal with. Many lizard hunting groups will be stalked by the sand wolves whenever they encounter them. Karl really wants to know how Suldak got rid of the sand wolves. A pack of sand wolves.

But in fact, even Suldak himself didn't know, anyway, the group of sand wolves left inexplicably at that time.

Karl can only come to this conclusion: "Perhaps it is because the lizard hunting group in your village is large in number, and what we encountered happens to be a pack of small wolves."

"But having said that, haven't you entrusted the knights yet?" Karl asked Suldak.

Suldak coughed twice: "Ahem, I'm just a reserve knight, and I have to study at the Knight Academy for half a year before I can get a graduation certificate from the Knight Academy."

"But this time you can meet a salamander, your luck is really good!"

Just as he was talking, Karl led Suldak into a narrow alley.

Suerdak led the horse and walked into the alley, but the horse couldn't turn around and return. Suerdak turned his head to look at the stone houses on both sides, and he could only see a line of sky above his head.

"Where is this?" Suldak asked.

Karl smiled mysteriously, lowered his voice and said to Suldak: "The underground exchange of magic items, you can call it a black market."

...

A double arched stone door was in the door opening of the building on the left side of the alley. Karl stood outside the door and knocked three times before waiting patiently.

Not long after, the door was opened from the inside, and a big naked man over two meters tall stood inside the door, stared at Karl, and then his eyes fell on Suldak, blocking the door without saying a word .

Karl said to the big man, "His name is Suldak, and I am his recommender."

Hearing Karl's words, the muscular man turned sideways to get out of the way of the door, and said to Suldak: "Your horse cannot enter, you can tie it in the stable, and take it away when you come out... "

To enter the black market in Hailansa City, one actually needs a guarantor referrer.

Suldak tied the horse in the stable, then followed Karl into a building surrounded by high walls, and he couldn't see how big the complex was.

The light in this building is a bit dim, the ground paved with square stone slabs is very flat, and there are stone pillars all over the inside, and the top of the stone pillars is a vaulted dome. Dozens of stone pillars prop up the hall, and there are some colored skylights on the roof Glass, strolling through the stained glass, leaving clusters of light on the floor.

There are not many merchants setting up stalls in the building, and most of the products on display, Suldak has never seen before, but there are some magic swords and arcane recurve blades on a stall, and Suldak wants to join them Look, the stall owner in a magic robe didn't even lift his eyelids.

The magic scrolls of 'Water Gathering' and 'Fire Gathering' were bundled together, and there were so many scrolls on the booth that they were piled up like a pile of firewood.

There was even a shriveled and ugly head on one booth, which had been so decayed that it could not be seen what kind of monster it was, and the magic power contained in it had almost dissipated, making it more like an abstract work of art.

Suldak saw a stall owner selling magic antelope skins. The magic antelope skins on the stall were neatly arranged like floor mats stacked together.

Karl whispered to Suldak: "All the items sold here are magic materials. If you have no intention of buying them, it's best not to strike up a conversation casually. These magicians have a bad temper."

Suldak nodded, and took out a piece of hard cowhide from his magic pocket, but unfortunately it was not flat, took out some salamander meat and pressed it on it, and sat on the ground behind the booth. The salamander meat had been placed for almost a day Now, if Suldak hadn't stored them in his magic pouch, they would all be smelly by now.

Again, the appearance of the salamander meat displayed was not very good, and the skin was even a little dry.

But before Suldak could sit on his butt, he saw a somewhat unkempt magician in a magic robe squatting in front of the booth, holding a short silver dagger back and forth on the salamander meat After the salamander meat was cut open, the fresh meat inside appeared. The unkempt magician took a deep sniff, then raised his head and asked Suldak, "What kind of meat is this?"

"Salamander meat." Surdak answered honestly.

"No wonder there is such a strong smell of fire element." The magician said, then looked at the few pieces of meat on the stall, and asked Suldak: "There are only so many?"

Suldak directly took out all the salamander meat in his pocket, piled it together and said, "That's all, about 160 pounds."

The magician glanced at the lizard tail on the top, and asked calmly, "What do you want to exchange for, gold coins? Magic crystals?"

Hearing that the magic crystal has been depreciating recently, Suerdak replied: "Gold coins!"

The magician looked at the salamander meat on the stall and said directly, "Eight."

Eight gold coins, equivalent to 5 silver coins per pound of salamander meat, fully in line with Suldak's psychological expectations.

Suldak said without hesitation:

"make a deal."
