Chapter 143: Deep Dive

The Gu family is also a big family on Yingke Island, and everyone who lives on the island has heard of the Gu family. Xi Yan and Huzi landed on the island for the first time, and it is unknown why.

When the onlookers saw that this girl was speaking to the Gu family's son in such a tone, they all gasped. That's Gu Xun, who doesn't want to make friends. People took the initiative to send it to the door, and this girl actually pushed it out.

After all, Gu Xun was from everyone's background, so he was just stunned, and said elegantly: "The girl first arrived here, and she hasn't been out of the island for a long time, and she wants to ask the girl what happened outside." ”

This guy is obviously lying, and even Huzi can see it. Because, when the onlookers heard this, they all looked at Gu Xun with wide eyes and disbelief.

However, the liar is indifferent and has no embarrassment of lying.

From the whispers of onlookers, Xi Yan guessed that the identity of the person in front of her was extraordinary, and she didn't want to be contaminated with such a person, so it was easy to cause trouble. But now that he took the initiative to send it to the door, he had the intention of pestering endlessly.

Seeing that Xi Yan was moved, Gu Xun stepped forward and bowed slightly and said, "Girl, please come down with me, let's talk about it in detail." ”

Such a posture cannot tolerate Xi Yan's refusal.

Huzi nervously pulled Xi Yan's sleeve. This person is too strong, and he doesn't leave any room for his sister to retreat.

Knowing Huzi's worries, he stroked his hand, and Xi Yan followed Gu Xun.

The figures of the three quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

A claustrophobic tea room with the fragrance of tea.

Xi Yan and Gu Xun sat opposite each other, while Huzi stood on one side.

"Say, Gu Gongzi took a lot of trouble to come over to me, what's the matter?" Xi Yan got straight to the point.

Gu Xun also said briskly: "Dare to ask, what is the thing that the girl just handed over to the guard?" Today, on a whim, he went to the beach for a walk, and as a result, he saw a scene of Xi Yan and Mengjin trading.

Although Mengjin quickly put away the object, with his eyesight, he could still distinguish one or two, but it was not sure. That's what happened to Duobao Pavilion.

It turned out to be this. Xi Yan said secretly in her heart. The fire crystal was taken out in order to land on the island, but he didn't expect it to fall into his eyes.

Thinking about it, she didn't understand Gu Xun's intentions, and Xi Yan really didn't know how to answer.

See her hesitation. Gu Xun said again: "Girl, please rest assured, I just want to make sure if the girl still has this thing in her hand, and I want to buy it, and there is no malice." "He said it sincerely. Good attitude.

For a while, it was difficult for Xi Yan to distinguish the authenticity. After all, she has very little contact with people, and she has reached a dilemma.

Gu Xun no longer urged, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and he waited calmly.

After thinking for a long time, Xi Yan nodded and asked, "Gu Gongzi wants to buy it, but I don't know what the price is?" ”

"What does the girl want?" Gu Xun thought that Xi Yan was just going out and encountered an emergency, and there were no coins on her body for emergencies, so the fire crystal was handed over. It can be used to offset the cost of going to the island. However, her next sentence surprised him.

Gritting her teeth, Xi Yan chose to believe Gu Xun, this person didn't look like a profiteer and a thief. "I don't know what the market price of fire crystal is?"

Gu Xun was secretly shocked in his heart, this person was really ignorant, and he didn't show it on his face: "The market price of fire crystal should be determined by its size and fineness, and the small piece that the girl took out today is not true when you look at it from a distance, and it is inferred that the lowest estimate is fifteen gold coins." ”

Ten gold coins are required to go to the island. The guard treated them so well, apparently knowing the value of the fire crystal, and benefiting from it. After thinking about the reason, Xi Yan understood. The mortals of the island are so shrewd. However, if you think about it, people's hearts tend to be profitable, and it makes sense to do so.

However, Huzi wanted to understand the matter before and after, and his two dark eyes were suddenly filled with anger, which was too annoying. He and his sister were already poor. Penniless, he was even cheated out of five gold coins by his life, and it was hard to bear this breath when he thought about it.

Xi Yan glanced at Huzi and asked him to calm down for a while.

Reaching out and taking out two pieces of fire crystal, Xi Yan said, "Childe, how much are these two crystals worth?" ”

According to the information Gu Xun just gave, she speculated that two pieces of fire crystals were enough to exchange for a few hundred gold coins, which was enough for the expenses of their sister and brother on the island.

She has a lot of fire crystals, but her wealth is not exposed, and she still understands this truth. Besides, Gu Xun stared at the fire crystal in her hand, if she had bad intentions, how could it be good. Take out two pieces just right, if the number is too large, it will inevitably cause coveting.

As soon as he saw the two fire crystals, Gu Xun's eyes suddenly lit up. Sure enough, he didn't mislook. The woman turned her hand and took out two high-quality, fist-sized fire crystals.

"Girl, do you still have this?" Gu Xun pressed the excitement in his heart and asked. According to his speculation, it should be gone, because they can dress and act like this.

Sure enough, Xi Yan shook her head to indicate no.

Not too disappointed, Gu Xun offered: "I will give three hundred gold coins, can the girl cut her love?" ”

Xi Yan didn't nod immediately, Huzi's body shook like a huge shock, just these two spars, it was too unbelievable that they could be exchanged for so many gold coins.

Since he was a child, Huzi has been in distress since he was a child, and he is much more sensitive to money than Xi Yan. When I first heard about such a large sum of money, my heart was inevitably shaken.

"This price is the listing price, Tong Su is not deceitful, if he is not in urgent need of this thing, he will never embarrass the girl like this, and I hope the girl will be fulfilled." Gu Xun said sincerely.

The Gu family has a big business, and a few hundred gold coins are naturally not taken into account. If it was in the past, with his identity as the son of the Gu family, how could he stoop for the fire crystal. It's just that recently, the fire spar on the island has been exhausted, and when you want to use it, it is difficult to find one.

Located on the sea, Yingke Island is inhabited by many mortals, and although the island is rich in resources, it does not produce minerals. As a result, ore is in dire need on the island.

Xi Yan never thought that the fire crystal she took out casually was in short supply on this island, so she could naturally exchange it quickly and get a good price.

Without bargaining, Xi Yan collected three hundred gold coins and sold two pieces of fire crystals to Gu Xun.

Although this deal was not what Xi Yan wanted, it was sent to the door, and the form forced her, she had to compromise.

Walking out of the teahouse, Xi Yan and Huzi no longer wandered around. This island, with a population of more than half a million, is so bustling and lively that you can't see much for a while. They decided to find a place to settle down first.

I found an ordinary inn and asked for a room. Originally, Xi Yan wanted two rooms, but Huzi didn't want to live or die and didn't want to waste money. Because an ordinary room costs one gold coin a day, the price level here is far beyond Huzi's cognition.

happened to be the first time to arrive, and the two followed each other all the way, commensurate with each other as sisters and brothers. I've long been acquainted with it, and there's nothing about being in the same room.

As soon as he returned to the house, Huzi immediately closed the doors and windows to ensure safety. Only then did he say eagerly: "Sister, that Gu Gongzi, at first glance, has an extraordinary background, how could he target us, just for a few spars." ”

Xi Yan also had doubts in her heart. At that time, in Guoduobao Pavilion, I learned from the mouths of onlookers that Gu Xun had a good status, and he would definitely not lower his posture so much for the sake of a few spars. But he did so, which is even more puzzling.

"Huzi, could it be that the spar is very valuable, so it attracted his attention?" Xi Yan asked uncertainly. sighed in his heart, the two of them really didn't know anything, otherwise they wouldn't have been entangled for so long.

Without waiting for Huzi to answer, Xi Yan continued: "Huzi." After a short rest, we will go out to inquire about the prices here, and we can feel at ease by feeling the bottom first. ”

After a series of events, Xi Yan realized how important information is.

"Okay." Hu Zi responded very simply, and he thought so too. You have to know the market price, otherwise you won't be able to move forward.

In the middle of the city, Xi Yan experienced first-hand that the place where hundreds of thousands of people live together is really extraordinary.

Wherever you go, it's a crowd of people. All kinds of sounds are mixed, so it's not lively.

Huzi's eyes widened, looking left and right. I have never seen such a bustling city, and I just feel that a pair of eyes is not enough. Everything is fresh. I can't help but look twice.

Although it was the first time for Xi Yan to see this grand occasion, she was only shocked in her heart, and there was no obvious expression on her face. With her temperament, even if she is overjoyed, she will never be like a tiger.

"Sister, look. That's the Sugar Man, I've heard it before, but today I've seen it with my own eyes. Huzi's voice was full of excitement and could not be suppressed.

Xi Yan just listened to the sound, and without looking at Huzi, she knew how excited he was. dragged him to the candy man's stall, asked the price, and bought one.

Huzi took the candy man and smiled even brighter.

Xi Yan looked at it and pursed her lips and smiled slightly. She was also happy to see him happy.

When her eyes swept to the acquisition shop, Xi Yan stopped. The prices of the things sold outside are different, but the overall price difference is not much, and after walking for an hour, I have a general understanding.

But if she wants to exchange it for money, she has to exchange it for the materials in her hand. You have to know the price of the material, this shop is the place to go.

Although she had three hundred gold in her hand, she felt that the money would not last long. If it is used by two people to live, it is enough. But yesterday she was in the Duobao Pavilion, and after a cursory look, she saw a lot of new things. Wandering at sea, his own cultivation is not high, and he must buy something to defend himself.

If you have this plan, then money is very tight.

This shop is called Yongxing Commercial Bank, with a wide range of business scope, all kinds of material acquisition, wholesale sales, and repairer material sales and acquisition. It contains all the things that mortals and cultivators need.

When she saw that there were cultivators' materials, Xi Yan was tempted.

Pull the tiger into Yongxing Commercial Bank. As soon as I entered, I was greeted by a waiter. Smiled: "Welcome two, see what you need, and let the small one serve the two." ”

Receiving such a warm reception was obviously different from Duobao Pavilion, and this treatment made Xi Yan and Huzi stunned, but they quickly came back to their senses.

Bowing her head slightly, Xi Yan said she understood. After scanning around, I found that the inside of this shop was surprisingly large. No wonder the scope of business is so wide, just from this local demand can be seen a thing or two.

"What kind of information do guests need, they can ask directly, and they must know everything." The waiter was smiling and warmly recommended.

The waiter here is also dressed in brocade clothes, seeing this, Xi Yan thought, this business house should be strong. But the style is very different from Duobao Pavilion.

As soon as you enter the door, you will be greeted by a waiter, with a sincere face, not at all as perfunctory as Duobao Pavilion.

With a good impression in her heart, Xi Yan smiled and said, "I don't know where I can see the price of the various materials needed to purchase cultivators?" ”

Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in the waiter's eyes, and he quickly calmed down. He bowed and said, "Guests, please come with me." ”

In the huge shop, I went around a few times before I came to the place where the materials were purchased.

The waiter stood in front of a counter and said, "This is the Wu steward who is in charge of the acquisition, and the guests can just ask if they need anything." With that, he took a few steps back and waited by the side.

Steward Wu, who was about thirty years old, dressed in a dark brocade robe, looked up at Xi Yan and said with a smile: "Welcome to Yongxing Commercial Bank." ”

Xi Yan said bluntly, "I want to know the purchase price of various materials, as well as the materials used by the cultivators sold in the store. ”

"This is the purchase price of our firm, which is divided into different parts, indicating the price of various materials, please take a look." Steward Wu immediately pulled out a booklet from the shelf behind him.

As soon as she saw the booklet, Xi's eyes lit up. That's exactly what she needs right now.

After a cursory sweep and a look at the classification, Xi Yan first set her eyes on the ore.

Soon found the purchase price of the fire crystal, which was the same as Gu Xun said, so it can be seen that the guy did not deceive her. The ore is evenly divided into colors at the time of acquisition, and the price varies.

was not deceived, and after making sure that it was correct, Xi Yan felt relieved. Then, start poring over the prices of other minerals. The wasteland line, although the journey is difficult and dangerous, but the harvest is very fruitful.

A lot of beast bone and blood materials have been collected, and there are also a lot of various ores.

Suddenly, Xi Yan's gaze was fixed. Spirit coins appeared on this booklet, and several materials were exchanged for spirit coins. The rest are commonly used coins.

Seeing the spirit coin for the first time, Xi Yan immediately asked: "Steward Wu, what is this spirit coin, and why are these materials exchanged for spirit coins?" ”

Steward Wu didn't need to read the booklet, and he already knew what Xi Yan was talking about. And then determined one thing, even if this girl has cultivation, she is not from a big faction, otherwise it is impossible not to know the spirit coin.

With a hundred turns in his heart, and his face was not visible at all, Steward Wu explained: "The spirit coin is a kind of currency, which is equivalent to gold and silver coins. It's just that the value of the spirit coin is higher, and it is generally used as a currency among cultivators. Spirit coins are extremely rare and cannot be used by mortals. The materials that are priced with spirit coins are extremely valuable. ”

It is also currency, and it is the currency used by cultivators, and she is also considered a cultivator, so do you still have to prepare spirit coins. Xi Yan secretly thought in her heart, "Steward Wu, can the gold coins and spirit coins be exchanged for huàn?" It's all currency, she thought, so it's always interchangeable.

"You can redeem huàn, but few people redeem huàn. One spirit coin can be exchanged for huàn 100,000 gold coins. ”

Hearing the ratio of 1:100,000, Xi Yan was shocked. This ratio is too big, who has nothing to do to exchange 100,000 gold coins for a spirit coin. Presumably, merchants use spirit coins to mark their prices, just because these materials are indeed precious and rare, and a large number of gold coins are not easy to exchange.

I have to say that at this time, Xi Yan became smart and guessed the truth. (To be continued.) )
