Chapter 461: Treasure Manor Treasure
When there was a small meeting in the county lord's mansion, Young Master Hua and Ding Qiqi had already walked several streets, completely changed their outfits from head to toe, and were thinking about whether to go back to eat at noon or find a random restaurant.
Ding Qiqi asked pitifully: "Xiaohua, let's eat casually at the stall, it's very cost-effective, how much will it cost?"
Hua Duxiu hesitated: "It doesn't cost much, does it?
Ding Qiqi said: "One tael of silver is equal to one thousand Wen?"
Hua Duxiu said, "Yes." ”
Ding Qiqi's expression jumped with excitement: "Then we are still quite rich, at least we don't have to worry about eating!"
Hua Duxiu smiled bitterly: "You haven't seen money, just a few taels of silver are still called rich?"
Ding Qiqi said: "Why do you want so much money, just enough to eat? I don't want to go back to the inn, Boss Cha bullies people, and he gives us leftovers when he has a newly cooked meal, I don't like him!"
Hua Duxiu said: "Okay, let's find a stall to eat casually, anyway, it's not bad for this money." ”
Noon is the warmest time of the day, when the streets are full of people and the whole street is thriving.
The two found a stall, and one of them came with a bowl of wild wonton stew.
Not to mention, Chaos is filled with fennel meat, sprinkled with shrimp skin, dripping with balsamic vinegar, and it tastes really good.
The two of them each ate two big bowls and were still unsatisfied, and when they settled the bill, they only spent 20 yuan.
Hua Duxiu gave one or two pieces of silver, and the boss carefully counted out a bunch of copper coins, and used a string of strings to find Master Hua.
Young Master Hua was full of emotion, it was the first time that he had spent so much money on a meal since he was a child.
Ding Qiqi patted his little belly with satisfaction and asked, "Is the wild wonton stew fragrant?"
Hua Duxiu said: "Fragrant." ”
Ding Qiqi said in an old-fashioned manner: "Xiaohua, this is called life, you can eat this kind of fun of following the local customs in restaurants and restaurants every day?"
Hua Duxiu scratched her head: "You're right. ”
Ding Qiqi got up and asked, "Why are you going in the afternoon?"
Hua Duxiu said: "I don't know, go back to the inn and take a nap?"
Ding Qiqi frowned: "I don't want to go back, when I go back and see the old face of the shopkeeper, I am upset." ”
Hua Duxiu said: "Maybe I have to fight tonight, if I don't make up for sleep, I don't have energy at night?"
Ding Qiqi said: "Go to bed early that night, now the street is full of people and noisy, can you sleep?"
Hua Duxiu said: "That's right. In this way, let's go to Baibao Manor to see if there is a way to make money. ”
Ding Qiqi's eyes lit up: "Baibao Manor? Okay, let's go!"
There are only two Hundred Treasure Manors in the entire Five Elements Heaven and Earth Realm, and one of them is in the White Dragon County City.
The name of Baibao Manor can be said to be like thunder, it is not only a part of the empire's ruling chain, issuing silver tickets on behalf of the empire, exchanging gold and silver, earning seigniorage, but also collecting exotic treasures and discovering information for the empire, and its status is so high that even the Governor's Mansion of a realm does not dare to despise it.
Master Hua's 1,000 taels of silver tickets were dismantled and exchanged for small denomination silver tickets and a pile of broken silver in Baibao Manor.
When it comes to making money, the actual young master doesn't have any ideas.
Don't look at the fact that he was born in a businessman's family, he has not actually participated much in business, at most he is a cameo as a senior dart master and a thug.
The Northern Plateau is thousands of miles away from the Trapped Demon Valley, and the family's business has developed extremely rapidly over the years, but here, Hua Duxiu can't borrow any strength.
If you want to make money, you can only rely on yourself, and you can only think of something else.
Hua Duxiu is sad in her heart, does she have to make a living by selling words and paintings?
The paintings I created are all works of art, and it's okay to give them to relatives and friends, but if you want to sell them?
Forget it.
Young Master Hua doesn't plan to sell his talent for the time being, and he doesn't want to make himself look like a down-and-out scholar.
Let's take a look first, what business opportunities are found in Baibao Manor?
The two were reluctant to take the carriage, so they wandered around like this, and arrived at the gate of Baibao Manor an hour later.
When I came last night, most of the gatehouse was closed, and now it was daytime, and Hua Duxiu felt the atmosphere of Baibao Manor again.
The estate is very large and has high walls, but there are no gates, so guests can come and go freely day and night.
The small square outside the door was full of all kinds of carriages, and some of the grooms were dozing off boredly, while others were gathering in twos and threes to chat.
And inside the manor, there were elite warriors in black clothes and black armor everywhere.
Their eyes looked at the people like eagles, and if anyone who didn't open their eyes dared to make trouble here, Hua Duxiu believed that they would be subdued immediately.
I heard that Baibao Manor has a private army, and their private army has no affiliation with the Governor's Mansion in the realm, once they make trouble here and are arrested by Baibao Manor, even if they intercede with the governor of one realm, it may not work.
Entering the gate, there is a lush green grass garden.
The garden is pruned with a unique flavor, with a variety of hardy plants spread out one after another, dotted with high-quality plums, and walking on the pebble paths, you can smell the refreshing fragrance in your nose.
Passing through the garden, you will arrive at the trading area of Baibao Manor.
Out of the garden, there is a circle of three-story buildings of various sizes.
These low buildings have different functions, belonging to the monopoly area of herbs, blades, armor, martial arts classics, pills, etc., seven or eight buildings of all sizes, and the door of each building is full of people, and obviously the business is very good.
According to Hua Duxiu's observations, there are three categories of people who come in and out of this place.
They may be hunters, medicine pickers, or seekers of some rare minerals, mainly to sell some precious materials that cannot be sold outside and cannot be sold at a high price.
Treasure Manor not only sells rare items, but also serves as a huge processing plant, which can make many special items that are difficult to see outside, and the raw materials used are also very rare.
It's like the essence that Young Master Hua saw in the Feather Cloak Gate before.
The second type of people, looking at their temperament, are obviously people in the rivers and lakes.
It includes both pure martial artists and Five Elements Magicians, and of course the vast majority of them are the latter.
These people are basically here to buy goods, and they are consumers.
There is a third type of people, this kind of people look very similar to Hua Duxiu, at first glance, they are rich people, rich people, come here to hunt for curiosity, to see if they can meet any new things, and the other is to pour goods to make a lot of money.
The so-called inverted master is also.
If you want to be a down-and-down master, capital and vision are indispensable, and you have to have a way to sell goods.
And in the middle of all the low buildings is a tall five-story stone building.
This stone building is unusually sturdy, made entirely of heavy stone bars, and even the windows are welded with heavy iron bars, giving people a sense of indestructibility.
This stone building is where the office, silver ticket exchange, and auction hall of Baibao Manor are located, and it is the top priority of the entire manor.
Hua Duxiu and the two browsed several small buildings in turn with the flow of people, and the more they looked, the more interested they became.
None of the products sold here are ordinary.
In other words, mortal products are not eligible to enter Baibao Manor.
In the same way, the prices of the goods here are also ridiculously expensive.
From the herbs to the elixir, from the armor to the blade, from the drawings to the classics, Hua Duxiu was dazzled and worried.
Even with his vision, he wanted to buy many things, which was really hard to find, and maybe there would be no more shops in this village.
It's a pity that Young Master Hua is poor and has no money.
Especially in the blade area, all kinds of strange blades are lined up on exquisite wooden frames, polished and shiny, and the cold air is pressing, each of which is an artifact that cuts gold and iron.
Young Master Hua looked at the end from the beginning, and when he went to the deepest part, he found a short snakeskin dagger in an inconspicuous corner.
The dagger was more than five inches long, the handle was like a withered old vine, and the wood was faintly petrified.
Its blade is hidden in a snakeskin scabbard, and it is impossible to see what the material is, but with its quaint handle and scabbard alone, this short dagger gives people a sense of the vicissitudes of time.
In the eyes of others, this is a dagger of a semi-antique nature, but in Hua Duxiu's eyes, it sees an unusual taste.
Because, his eyes were disturbed by a strange and familiar aura.
Even if this aura was very faint and almost unrecognizable, it couldn't escape Hua Duxiu's eyes.
That's the feeling that comes with the aura of the Spirit.
Before, Young Master Hua had no sensitivity to the "Clear Spirit Qi", but since he got the Dragon Scale Sword and tried to extract and refine the blade hundreds of times in the cave, his eyes gradually developed a special ability to identify the Clear Spirit Qi.
For example, his little red sword, as long as Hua Duxiu closes his eyes and feels carefully, he can naturally conjure up a white long object in his mind.
This long strip exudes a faint chill, sometimes crystalline, sometimes misty, but it is really present in the mind.
When I opened my eyes, I couldn't see anything, and the little red sword was just a wooden sword.
At this moment, Hua Duxiu stared at the short dagger for a while, slowly closed her eyes, and probed carefully.
Gradually, a chaotic image gradually appeared in my mind.
Does this thing really contain the aura of the soul?
Hua Duxiu wondered in her heart, and she couldn't make up her mind, and suddenly heard a deep voice beside her:
"Brother, do you have a crush on this dagger?"
