Yu Lei said with a smile: "This game is still very popular in the third prince's house. Basically, this program is held every year and festival. As long as you can guess a question correctly, you can get a reward. But just like what you said, A Peng
In that way, even some very simple questions, after using body and gesture gestures, will make people confused and give some completely different answers."
"I still remember that during the Chinese New Year this year, I drew a dragon for you, but you guessed a worm, which prevented us from winning the final prize."
Xia Fei rolled his eyes at Yu Lei and continued: "So although this woman still remembers the dream, what was written in the book in the dream is actually her personal understanding, so there may be big differences in the content.
Discrepancy? But people are still coming to her about this matter, which means the content of this book is very important! I remember that some foreigners use spells similar to talismans. They seem to call them magic, so is this a book?
Magic book?"
pretty close.
If that Gentile is an Easter egg about the "Necronomicon", then the book he wrote should be a low-profile magic book.
"I remember that among the original dream interpreters, some people seemed to have studied these so-called magics, because these magics are more convenient than talismans and can be used directly in emergencies without the need to prepare in advance like talismans;
However, the amount of magic a person can use is quite limited, and it is easy to have side effects such as dizziness and dizziness, so there are pros and cons between the two, just like a bow with a quiver and a bow with a quiver.
Stringed crossbow.”
Xia Fei continued: "In short, I will investigate these things after I return to Liangcheng. If there are results, I will come back and inform you as soon as possible. As for the son-in-law who comes to Yangjia Village, you, Lao Yu, will be in charge. Look at this man
Which martial arts routine does this come from? If you can be sure, please let me know by flying pigeon."
"No problem, then let's go. This incident has indeed given us a wake-up call. It's a bit unpopular but we have almost forgotten its existence. At this time, it may give us a fatal blow! So you have to let
The third prince should find someone to make a list of people who are similar to dream interpreters, and then he must find a way to target these people." Yu Lei instructed.
After Xia Fei left, Liu Xing and Yu Lei met for a while, and when they saw nothing happened, they went back to the room to rest.
I slept until dawn.
Because there is no air conditioning in the inns in Philadelphia, the temperature rises sharply after dawn, and Liu Xing wakes up directly from the heat.
"It's so hot that I can't survive these days."
Liu Xing washed his face and said helplessly: "I don't know how I got here when I was a kid and there was no air conditioning, but the weather back then wasn't as hot as it is now, right?"
As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, he heard a cry of hawking coming from outside the inn.
Liu Xing, who had nothing to do, opened the window to watch the excitement, and found several people downstairs carrying a box of goods, arranging to sell something.
But what concerned Liu Xing was that all of these people had a tattoo that was not clearly visible on their arms, and only one of them had a tattoo on his left hand.
You must know that in the Xinlong Empire, the left is respected, so this person should be the leader of this group of salesmen?
"What are you looking at?"
Yu Lei opened the door and said: "Apeng, if you have nothing to do in the morning, go to Yangjiacun. Because I am quite famous in Liangcheng, so if that person is really a disciple of a certain sect in Liangcheng,
, then he has more or less met me once, so it’s hard for me to go directly to Yangjiacun to see that person now; and Apeng, you know friends in Yangjiacun, so it is reasonable to go to Yangjiacun now. Of course, in the end
The important thing is that you don’t have much fame, so that person won’t recognize you as the Third Prince’s person.”
"No problem, I'll go to Yangjiacun after breakfast later, but brother, come over and take a look. Why do these people selling things have tattoos on their hands?" Liu Xing said.
As we all know, tattoos in ancient times were basically associated with the word "taipei", so serious people did not have tattoos, whether on the face or arms.
So Liu Xing feels that these salesmen should all have something to say.
"Oh, that should be someone from Xueshan Trading Company."
Yu Lei didn't even look at it and said directly: "Xueshan Trading Company is a very famous trading company in the north, because the boss of this trading company is the city lord of the cities in Xueshan. It's normal that you don't know about it, Apeng. After all, this trading company rarely comes to us.
We come here to do business. Of course, this is not because they have not opened up sales lines, but because their products are so popular that they are sold out before they can reach us, so their salesmen will go back directly.
"
"oh?"
Looking at Liu Xing who seemed to understand, Yu Lei continued: "The so-called Snow Mountain Cities are those cities located in the north. They got such a name because they are all located near the Snow Mountains, but there is another reason.
All the cities in the Snow Mountain are the same as Boyang City, they only have city lords but no governors, and there are no outsiders even in the city, so these cities only surrender to us in name, and usually pay us some taxes."
Hearing Yu Lei's words, Liu Xing remembered that before entering the martial arts module, he seemed to have found a chess piece related to the cities in the Snow Mountains, and the identity of this chess piece was a city lord?
"Strictly speaking, the Snow Mountain Cities are traitors to the Ice and Snow Kingdom in the north. However, in fact, the last king of the Ice and Snow Kingdom died suddenly, so several people stood up to compete for the throne. As a result, the person supported by the Snow Mountain Cities failed.
; So the city lords of these cities had to choose to take refuge with us, because if they don't look for us as a backer, then they will definitely not be able to escape death."
Yu Lei said with a smile: "So the Snow Mountain cities have cut off contact with the Ice and Snow Kingdom. Therefore, in order to obtain stable food and various daily necessities, they formed the Snow Mountain Trading Company to do business with us. However, the goods of the Snow Mountain Trading Company are indeed
It's pretty good, and it's something we don't have here, so these goods can be sold out quickly; as for these salesmen with tattoos on their arms, they are similar to the people here who have been tattooed in a certain place, and they also belong to that type.
Sinners who need to make up for their mistakes, you should understand what I mean, right?"
"Understood, these tattoos are to distinguish them from ordinary people like us, so the cities in the Snow Mountains dare to let them come to our place to sell goods. But if this tattoo is placed on the arm, wouldn't it be easy to hide?"
Liu Xing frowned and said.
"That's why the cities in the snow-capped mountains let them sell goods in the summer, because these sellers have become a little afraid of the heat after living under the snow-capped mountains for a long time. What's more, they have to wrap themselves up tightly in this summer. So what do you think?
You’ll all find it suspicious, right?”
Yu Lei walked to the window as he spoke, "Sure enough, these people have octagonal snowflakes tattooed on their arms. However, because their tattooing skills are a bit poor, the octagonal snowflakes look a bit mushy.
It's even harder to tell when you're far away; but this is a bit interesting. Normally, it's almost impossible for the Xueshan Trading Company to come to Feicheng, because they should have sold out their goods when they were in Liangcheng. After all, Liangcheng has the ability to sell Xueshan.
Buy all the goods from the merchant house, of course I mean under normal circumstances."
"Obviously, the current situation is a little abnormal! If these people are really from the cities in the Snow Mountains, it means that the situation in the cities in the Snow Mountains is not very good this year, so they took out all the goods at the bottom of the box.
That's why the salesmen came to Philadelphia to sell things; however, this kind of thing has happened several times. One time was because the Ice and Snow Kingdom wanted to cause trouble for them, and other times it was due to avalanches in the snow-capped mountains, causing the snow-capped mountains to collapse.
Zhucheng suffered huge losses, so I guess it’s the latter.”
Just when Liu Xing was about to speak, Yu Lei continued: "By the way, A Peng, your family runs a medical clinic, so you must be in great need of snow lotus and other medicinal materials that are only found in cities in the snow mountains, right? So, right?
I’m going to buy you some now!”
In the martial arts world, the gold content of snow lotus is not low. After all, it is a high-grade medicinal material. If you add a prefix such as "Tianshan", this snow lotus will become the top medicinal material in the martial arts world, and can even
It is called a treasure of heaven and earth!
Therefore, Liu Xing was overjoyed and said, "Well, isn't this going to cost Brother Yu a lot of money? But I have admired Snow Lotus for a long time, because it is mentioned in many medical books that Snow Lotus has great effects, and even
I have the ability to save someone’s life, so..."
Looking at Liu Xing who was hesitant to speak, Yu Lei said with a smile: "Apeng, if nothing else happens, I will stay in Tianshui Town during this period, so if this snow lotus is to be used, it may also be used for me.
So I can take precautions in the bud, right? If you can’t use it, then consider it as the rent I gave you. Anyway, I have saved a lot of money over the years, but I have no place to spend it. After all, I
I usually live in the third prince’s house, and I have a place to eat and live when I go out.”
After saying this, Yu Lei went downstairs to buy something without waiting for Liu Xing's answer.
Liu Xing reciprocated the favor and went directly to the innkeeper to order a table of dishes, even if it was for breakfast.
After ordering the food, Liu Xing also went out to look at the super high-end street stall of Xueshan Trading Company, because the things sold at this stall were not cheap, but they were all good things that could be seen with the naked eye.
But for Liu Xing, the biggest function of this street stall is to keep himself cool, because the big box they just brought contains a large ice cube, which can even pop out under the sun and make people look cool.
Air conditioning.
This is not simple.
It was not an easy task to use ice cubes in the summer in ancient times, especially such a large ice cube. Just putting it here would make people envious.
Therefore, passers-by who come to join in the fun at this time are not only watching the strange things, they are also "blowing the air conditioner", because this kind of experience is rare.
As for the goods on the street stalls, as Yu Lei said, they are mainly based on various medicinal materials, and there are also some specialties from the snowy mountains, such as the furs of some unknown animals, pretty-looking gems, and many more
A large opaque bottle, which seemed to be filled with medicinal wine.
But what worries Liu Xing the most is that there is a piece of cloth hanging on the top of the box, with the price of each item written on it, and an obvious note at the back - bartering is supported, and food is the best!
It seems that Yu Lei's guess is correct. The cities in the snow-capped mountains may have encountered avalanches, causing their food to become scarce, so they support bartering at this time, and they can also use the most common foods.
Exchange these rare goodies.
No wonder they came to Feicheng specifically to do business. It turned out that they had heard that Feicheng had a large amount of grain stored in it.
Therefore, at this time, Liu Xing had a very bold idea, which was to exchange the various foods stored in Tianshui Town for the goods of Xueshan Trading Company! Because in the previous series of operations, Tianshui Town had stored a lot of food.
Food can definitely sustain players until the end of the module.
Therefore, the original idea of Liu Xing and others with these extra food was to prepare for emergencies, or to use it to recruit nearby NPCs. If there was a chance, they would use it to exchange for favors from the third prince. No matter how bad it was, they could improve their quality of life.
But at this time, maybe we can directly exchange things for things and get some things that are very good for Tianshui Town.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing walked up to Yu Lei, who was buying snow lotus, and expressed his intention to exchange things for things.
After Yu Lei thought for a moment, he paid directly to buy the snow lotus in his hand, and then squeezed out of the crowd with Liu Xing.
"Apeng, are you sure you want to do this?"
Yu Lei asked seriously: "I don't know how much food you have prepared in Tianshui Town, so you have to ensure that the food is enough to cope with the current difficulties! Although the food from this Xueshan Trading Company is quite good, and it can also be purchased here
It’s a big advantage sometimes, but let’s not stop eating because of choking, after all, you are no longer alone, so all your decisions should take everyone in Sweetwater Town into consideration!”
Liu Xing smiled, nodded and said: "No problem, I have already read the account book before going out, so I know that Tianshui Town has enough food stored now, and there is even a little too much. It just so happens that at this time I can
Convert it into something more useful! Besides, the Bai family ranch is in pretty good condition and can continuously provide us with fresh meat, so brother Yu, don’t worry."
Since Liu Xing said so, Yu Lei could only support Liu Xing's idea, and began to bargain with Xueshan Trading Company on Liu Xing's behalf.
