  Chapter 69 68. Underground Trading

  Passing through the noisy market, He Boqiang and Suerdak followed Gabi to a large tent at the outermost edge of the hillside, which was a temporary camp for a large caravan.

This large round tent is surrounded by several small tents like stars holding the moon. Behind the round tent are more than a dozen piles of goods covered with thatch, and at the end is a stable surrounded by a wooden fence, in which Two dozen horses and a few mules.

  Several shop assistants are carrying a batch of goods from a pile of goods, piled on a cart, it should be some grain bags full of oats.

  The campsite is surrounded by green glass grass, and there are serious trample marks around it. Some horseshoe prints are filled with the rain that just fell yesterday.

  Two armored guards stood guard at the entrance of the tent. When they saw He Boqiang and the others walking in, they stopped the three of them with their halberds.

   Gabby said to the guard in a polite manner: "I am Mr. Larkin's shop assistant. Mr. Larkin asked me to come here."

  His voice spread into the tent, and before the guard could reply, a gentle voice sounded from the tent:

   "Ask them to come in..."

  The guard stood the halberd in his hand again, stretched out his hand and opened the curtain of the tent, and invited He Boqiang and Suldak inside.

The tent was covered with fluffy fur. A young noble knight was sitting on the main seat, and several businessmen were sitting on both sides. The businessman Larkin was sitting in it, and there was a small wooden table in front of him, on which was a fruit plate , filled with green grapes and purple plums.

  There is a piece of ice that is constantly emitting white steam standing upright in the corner of the tent, so that the inside of the tent and the outside world are completely at two temperatures, and the inside of the tent is much cooler than the outside. I thought: Maybe this is the noble life that Suldak said.

   Larkin saw that Gabi brought Suldak and He Boqiang in, and hurriedly called Suldak and He Boqiang to go over.

Then he got up and introduced to the young nobleman in the tent: "Baron Terry Carnegie, this is Suldak, who belongs to the 57th Regiment here, and this is his friend Little Duck, in my hand They are the owners of the heads of these evil spirits."

The young nobleman was wearing a black dress inlaid with gold lace, his face was extremely white, and he sat there casually, holding a silver wine glass in his hand. He shook the wine glass in his hand, and the ice cubes in it hit the glass The wall made a tinkling sound, which immediately made the tent quiet.

  The Baron Terry Carnegie asked Suldak: "I heard that you intend to transfer the heads of these four evil spirits?"

   "It is indeed so." Suldak replied.

Baron Terry Carnegie raised his thin eyebrows lightly, his face was a little too green, and he said in a unique hoarse voice in the period of voice change: "Can you explain to me again the four evil spirits?" Where did the head come from?"

Suldak hesitated for a moment, but still said: "I got it in the Gandar Er Mountain. It takes about two days to walk eastward along the river valley. I can guarantee that these four evil spirit heads belong to us completely. The 17th regiment has nothing to do with it, if necessary, I can take you to the scene to have a look, I believe there will be some skeletons of evil spirits left there."

   Baron Terry Carnegie didn't seem to want to go to the scene to take a look, he said casually:

   "Uh, I'm just asking casually. I'll just go to the scene and check it out. I just don't want to cause trouble."

   At this time, the old man sitting under Baron Terry Carnegie hurriedly smoothed things over. He said to Suldak in a gentle tone:

"Baron Terry Carnegie invited the two of you to come here not to delve into the origin of these trophies, but to hear from Larkin that you want to exchange these trophies for a set of armor. The more advanced the armor, the larger the size and model. The stricter the requirements, it also depends on which suit suits your body type."

  He Boqiang heard from the voice of the old man that he was the one who invited them in in the tent just now.

  The old man looked more like a businessman. He looked at Suldak and He Boqiang seriously, and asked, "So... which one of the two does the armor I got belong to?"

Sulda pulled He Boqiang, and the two sat down on the carpet beside Lakin, and then said casually: "For him, I have standard armor in the Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment, and there is no need to order additional personal armor. "

   "This..." The old man looked at He Boqiang.

   "He's a mute, we call him Little Duck." Larkin said hastily.

   Hearing what La Jin said, the old man smiled kindly at He Boqiang, and then told the waiter standing at the door:

   "Go and move the full body armor made of bronze cleats from the warehouse..."

  He paused for a moment, thought carefully, and then added:

   "Ah! Also bring that set of monster leather armor over here."

  The two waiters turned and walked out, and it didn't take long before they brought in two completely different sets of armor.

  The old man didn't look at the two sets of armor, but said in a calm voice: "These four heads are worth about four magic crystals at the current market price."

   Larkin secretly nodded to Suldak, indicating that the businessman was right.

  In fact, Suldak probably knew in his heart the approximate value of the heads of these evil spirits.

   Seeing that Suldak and He Boqiang had no objections, the old man stood up from his seat, walked to the front of the bronze armor, and began to introduce to everyone:

"This full body armor weighs thirty-five pounds and is made up of nearly a thousand pieces of bronze armor. If this is just a set of bronze armor, then even a brand new set of lock piece bronze armor is only worth about seventy-five pounds. Each piece of armor is plated with a layer of precious magic metal, so this armor has good anti-magic properties, so it is worth at least three magic crystals."

  'It's so expensive! '

  He Boqiang felt a little bit reluctant to spend almost all the proceeds from the sale of the evil ghost's head this time.

  He Boqiang's cognition of the world's currency, three magic crystals can be exchanged for thirty gold coins.

  An ordinary civilian can probably save dozens of gold coins in his lifetime.

  Suldak's eyes fell on the set of heavy armor, and his eyes showed great interest. The standard armor of the fifty-seventh heavy armored infantry regiment was not so sophisticated.

  The old man went to the front of another set of leather armor and introduced to everyone:

"This leather armor is sewn from the leather of a second-level magical beast. Most of the skin of the flame snake is used to make the leather jacket on the upper body, and the lower body armor and battle skirt are made from the thick leather on the back of the swamp giant crocodile. The upper half of this set of monster leather armor does not belong to the category of heavy armor, but the lower half belongs to heavy leather armor."

  Hearing what the old man said, Suldak was completely attracted by the suit of armor that didn't look too good. Even Lakin on the side opened his mouth wide, showing a very surprised expression.

  The old man continued to introduce:

"This set of monster leather armor is lighter than bronze armor, and its defense and magic resistance are also better. In addition, the greatest value of this set of monster leather armor is that it has good magic properties, that is to say This set of magic leather armor still has a lot of room for improvement in the future. If you have the ability to be promoted to rank one fighters in the future, you can also ask an inscription master to draw a whole set of magic patterns on this set of leather armor to make it a set. Precious magic pattern construction."

   "..."

   There were slight exclamations in the tent one after another...

   (Note: One gold coin can be exchanged for one hundred silver coins, one silver coin can be exchanged for one hundred copper plates, and the purchasing power of one gold coin is roughly equivalent to ten thousand soft sister coins)
