We haven't even seen the outline of Yanyuanji yet, but as soon as we got within thirty miles, the surrounding people became denser.
Although it is also relative, compared to the Central Plains, the land is still sparse, vast and sparsely populated, but at least it is not a stand-alone game.
Huang Shang deliberately slowed down and observed each group of people.
He was not afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, because this time Tianyi's true energy was released, even the horse was enveloped.
Of course, no matter how magical the true energy is, it cannot block the sight of the human eye. However, those who observe with their eyes have been detected by Huang Shangxin's induction in the lake early and bypassed in advance. The caravan that also has experts stationed in it has been detected by the magic body.
Deceiving, this seems flattering.
Under his observation, the Turks are undoubtedly the most powerful people at present. Even the establishment of this market was promoted by the Khitan Chamber of Commerce. Later, the Khitan, Shiwei, Tiele, Mo, and Hui tribes were also promoted.
Very few, even Goguryeo sticks appear.
This is because Pei Ju's accumulation of knowledge is not trivial. He also grew up in Northern Qi Dynasty, so he can make judgments based on the dress of each race.
If anyone else were to look at them, they would all be the burly Xionggui and the even burlier Biluo. How could there be much of a difference?
Huang Shang knew that he had to make a certain disguise.
Otherwise, with his handsome Han appearance, wouldn't he be there to assassinate him perfectly after entering?
Fortunately, for the convenience of wearing a vest in the future, he learned the art of disguise from an old woman while teaching in Jinyang.
No matter how useful the housekeeper is, it is not portable. After all, when a person takes action, disguise is a skill that must be mastered.
After making up his mind, he no longer avoided certain people.
After friendly negotiations between the two parties, a new "prairie man" appeared one day later.
He tied his hair into a bun, tied it with a red scarf, and put it on his left shoulder. He wore a warrior's attire, with rolled sleeves and exposed arms, an armor belt around his waist, and a sheathed thunder knife. His lines were graceful, powerful and elegant.
When Huang Shang stepped into Yanyuanji with this appearance, he still received sideways glances, but the eyes of the prairie people who looked at him were filled with vigilance and awe.
Because of his strong body and the majesty shining in his eyes, he showed his unabashed power. In addition, he was alone and had no cargo. Such a target has always been a difficult nut to crack. There is little oil and water, and it is rare.
He will provoke others, but on the contrary, beware of his evil intentions.
Huang Shang sneaked into Yanyuanji openly and openly.
Since it is a collection, it is not the scale of a city, county or village. It is centered on a vast open space and surrounded by hundreds of irregularly distributed camps, each with its own characteristics and a spectacle.
When Huang Shang arrived, the open space in the center was full of people, with all kinds of goods laid out and making a lot of noise.
It's time to catch up.
Just like the Wan surname trade at Daxiangguo Temple in Kaifeng, Tianlong World, Yanyuanji also has a few busiest days every month. Of course it is not bad on weekdays, but in comparison, it is much deserted.
Huang Shang watched all the way. If the stall owner asked if he wanted to buy it, he would definitely answer next time in standard Turkic language.
In fact, there is no next time. It's just a free prostitution and then comparing it with Jinyang's goods.
He soon discovered that the best-selling items on the grassland were still pearls and silk. A small box of the former could even be exchanged for a hundred good horses, while the latter was the largest hard currency and was obviously in great demand.
Different from the stable market prices in Jinyang, when negotiating prices here, there are often people with knives next to them. They look like they are convincing people with virtue. Whichever company is more powerful can buy low and sell high.
Of course, those who can appear here have some connections, but they still have to abide by the law of natural selection. Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimps.
No matter how strong the other forces are, when they encounter the Turkic Chamber of Commerce, they have to stand still and pretend to enjoy themselves.
Balmengan is the head of the Turkic Chamber of Commerce here.
"He Zhe is quite politically savvy!"
From the fact that Yili helped the Jinyang Chamber of Commerce in the past, we can see that the big boss behind the Turkic Chamber of Commerce is probably "Crazy Thunder" Hezhe.
This Turkic State Master is not just a decoration. He is somewhat similar to Huang Shang's control of the tea and horse trade. They both know that they control the economic lifeline.
Huang Shang was not in a hurry to find Balemengan, and asked the three brothers to wander around the market in order, targeting the craftsmen.
What these craftsmen do is not a good business. Most of them process the stolen goods snatched from the customs and sell them back to the customs. There are also those who fight among the various tribes in the grassland. They use all possible means to sell the stolen goods.
The status of the craftsmen is not low, they have guards and independent tents, the goods are various, and the price depends on the person.
Huang Shang initially planned to buy a good bow.
When he actually came to Beyond the Great Wall, he remembered a character who didn't play much in the original plot, Master Arrow.
The main role of this person is to provide Shuanglong with two powerful 200-stone divine bows, Stab the Sun and Shoot the Moon.
What is the concept of two hundred stones?
Well, let's put it this way, the method for calculating the bow power of a bow is as follows. Fix a bow on the wall and hang a heavy object on the bow string. When the bow is completely drawn, the weight of the heavy object hanging on the bow string will be
That's the power of this bow.
In ancient times, the weight of a stone (dàn) varied in each dynasty, with the lowest being thirty kilograms and the highest being sixty kilograms, but they were basically regarded as fifty kilograms.
Therefore, a stone bow can hold a weight of fifty kilograms, which is already a strong bow. During the martial arts competitions in the Tang Dynasty, the martial arts people used a stone bow to shoot long stacks. For horseback shooting, they usually used a seven-bow bow, otherwise they would not be able to pull it open, and the consequences would be reversed.
become a drag.
It is a relatively reliable record that Huang Zhong was able to shoot a bow with the power of two stones, hit hundreds of shots, and became stronger with time.
Now the bow drawn by Shuanglong is a hundred Huang Zhong.
Huang Zhong:???
Qu Ao:(＾＾)
Huang Shang sympathized with this member of the family, and then regarded him as the measurement unit of Qiang Gong.
Now that he is here, he naturally wants to meet the strong man who can make a hundred Huang Zhongs, and buy a good bow that is more powerful than a rocket launcher.
But it is a pity that after many inquiries, there is no such person or similar inheritance at present. The strongest bow on the grassland currently only costs fifty stones, which is equivalent to twenty-five Huang Zhong. It is said that it is collected by the Turkic Khan.
Since he couldn't buy a good bow, he thought about making a weapon suitable for himself.
Of the two previous swords, the short sword was sacrificed to the body hair of the Pao King. The long sword collided with the thunder knife and shattered into slag. Although the power of Jingzhe was intensified, that move could also be performed with sword energy, and it was not
No sacrificial weapon required.
And from the collision with the thunder knife, it can also be seen that before there is no invincibility, a weapon that can withstand the confrontation with the strong is still very critical. After all, Huang Shang's biggest shortcoming at present is his skill, which is not up to par.
It reaches the level where Shi Zhixuan faced the enemy empty-handed in the original plot.
Anyway, the Grand Master is willful, so those under the Grand Master should not waste their time.
I happened to have a thunder knife in my hand. How could such a good material be wasted?
The thunder knife is not suitable for him. At this stage, there are still differences between swords. The sword is heavy and fierce, and the sword is agile. There is no doubt that Huang Shang's current learning is still biased towards dexterity, and it is impossible to change for a weapon.
Therefore, he hoped to take out the part of the blade that was full of superpowers, forge a new sword, and embed it in the center of the sword body so that it could be blessed by the power of thunder.
Um……
With such a description, why does it feel like seeing the Fire Lin Sword?
Regardless of whether he thought about it or not, Huang Shang started looking for craftsmen based on this small goal.
The power is huge, and it is obvious at a glance that it is not appropriate to take advantage of others. After all, even if you can convince people with your virtue and forge it for a long time, it will easily be wasted.
Then he discovered that there was no suitable candidate.
They all know how to take advantage of others.
"It's inconvenient without a housekeeper and a reincarnation person around!"
Huang Shang lamented that the people outside the Great Wall were simple and simple, so he found a tent to live in and waited for the trading boom in the market to pass.
A few days later, many caravans left, and more tents were vacated, making it much deserted.
Huang Shang rejected many sellers of Bao Jian Bao and started a new round of investigation.
Most of the craftsmen from the big forces left with the team, leaving only some small forces.
Let him ravage these things... let him have friendly exchanges. However, everything has advantages and disadvantages. Ambition is often accompanied by strength. Lack of ambition does not mean that you are indifferent to fame and fortune. It often means that your craftsmanship is not good and you are just trying to make a fool of yourself.
Huang Shang walked around and found that except for the Turkic Chamber of Commerce, which was almost the organizer, the other craftsmen from small and medium-sized forces did not have the skills to forge a magic weapon for him.
Can we only go back to Jinyang?
With regretful thoughts, Huang Shang came to a tent on the edge, listened to the sound of blacksmithing inside, and walked in.
There are simple anvils and stoves in the tent. A young man with his right arm is standing in front of him. From the side, he is extremely tall and has a thick frame. He can be called a giant, but in addition to his burly body and strong
Apart from the muscles, the rest is nothing special, and the breath is not strong.
Bang! Bang!
At this time, as the big hammer hit the anvil, sparks flew out, and a large knife gradually took shape.
Everything is unremarkable.
Huang Shang glanced at it, but his eyes suddenly fell on a big bow hanging on the wall.
The big bow attracted his attention.
After choosing it for such a long time, he already had a keen eye, and he could see that the body of this bow was made of twisted and woven special steel wires, which was both elastic and extremely strong, and the strings were made of thinner steel wires.
The best part is that although the whole bow is very large, it can be divided into several sections and folded up. The mechanical design is simply ingenious.
Huang Shang asked: "How can I sell this bow?"
The young man didn't even raise his head: "This bow is not for sale."
Huang Shang was surprised: "Why?"
The young man shrugged: "If you don't sell it, you won't sell it."
Huang Shang turned his head and looked at him: "Then what is the name of this bow?"
The young man was noncommittal: "It's called [Yan Fei]."
"This name is quite unique!"
Huang Shang raised his eyebrows slightly and decided to visit again in the evening.
This bow is destined to him.
But if this bow was really made by the person in front of him, then he might be a skilled craftsman. He thought for a while and took out the thunder knife: "Look at this weapon, can you re-make it?"
He wasn't worried about Thunder Knife being recognized.
Because no one would associate the thunder knife that shook the prairie with the dull, slender knife in front of them.
The divine weapon is dim and dull, either because it is obscured by dust, or because it can be sent and received freely.
Now it's clearly the latter.
After this period of speculation and understanding, he was able to briefly absorb the magical power into his body, and his outward appearance was naturally unremarkable.
However, a truly skilled craftsman can still see how extraordinary this long knife is. If he insists that there is no problem, he is basically out of the game.
When the thunder knife was unsheathed, the movement in the young man's hand suddenly stopped, his eyes turned around, and his eyes shone on the knife: "Where did you get this knife?"
Huang Shang said sincerely: "You get it by killing people."
The young man thought for a while, and a smile appeared on his face: "I'm very interested, how do you want to go back and recreate it?"
Huang Shang explained his thoughts, and the young man nodded: "No problem, you can pick it up in three days."
Huang Shang shook his head: "I'll wait here."
The young man said: "This is not a wise decision."
Huang Shang's eyes flickered without wavering: "How much gold?"
The young man said nonchalantly: "When I finish making the sword, you can pay for it!"
Huang Shang nodded, stood to one side of the tent, and watched the young man holding the handle of the knife with his left hand, stroking the blade of the thunder knife with his right hand, and suddenly pinched it gently.
Click!
An incredible scene happened. With just a slight squeeze, the blade of the thunder knife, which could crush hundreds of alchemical steel, shattered inch by inch, exposing the center section.
It was a stone that looked like jade but not jade, with purple and white traces all over it. It felt like a divine object born from thunder and lightning.
The young man stretched out two fingers to twist it, and a bright light suddenly bloomed, illuminating the entire tent.
"The luck of the grassland is gone!"
The young man muttered something in a low voice and threw it into the furnace.
…
…
When the tinkling sound of iron was heard in the tent, two nights later, a black shadow suddenly crossed the starry sky.
A man and a woman stood on the back of the Tyrannosaurus, overlooking the area.
Not long after, Vice Captain Leng Ying made a judgment:
