Chapter 984: Sundries Street
Anyone can be curious, but the difference is that some people are very curious and some people are not very curious. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In addition, the role of reason is quite great for curiosity, and it is not an exaggeration to call such a person a wise man who can control his curiosity and resist all kinds of temptations.
Zhang Yang is also curious, although his curiosity is not strong, but it is his wish to be able to walk around the Orlando continent to see, so walking in the Colossus City of Osaydi, he will inevitably look around curiously while hurrying.
Fortunately, Zhang Yang is now wearing a wide cloak on his body, which makes Zhang Yang's movements now look inconspicuous. And when Zhang Yang passed through an alley, a touch of extremely special and familiar feeling actually came from this alley!
(It feels...... )
If it was a normal situation, Zhang Yang would never change his plan halfway for his curiosity, after all, he was not familiar with the people here, and it would be really bad if he encountered any trouble.
However, the reason why Zhang Yang came to the Colossus City of Osaydi was to find a way to recover completely! As for the treatment of the wounds on the body, it is just a trivial matter.
Therefore, when Zhang Yang stood at the intersection and carefully discerned this feeling, and came to the conclusion that there might be something here that would allow him to achieve the purpose of his trip, Zhang Yang suddenly turned around and walked into this old alley, which was only a few meters wide......
(Is it a slum?) No, it looks like a flea market-like place, right? )
Standing at the intersection, he couldn't see anything in this alley, but when Zhang Yang walked a few dozen meters along the narrow stone road and turned a corner, everything here finally appeared in front of his eyes.
The Colossus of Osaydi is huge, so not all the orcs living in it are inhabitants of the city, just like the free mercenaries and adventurers who travel around in the human realm, and there are also a considerable number of people in the Colossus of Osaydi who are outsiders.
Most of them came here with dreams, but very few orcs were able to make a name for themselves.
As a result, many people with relatively meager incomes, weak strength, and injuries spontaneously gathered in the relatively remote streets and alleys of the Colossus of Osaydi.
There is no commission from the Bounty Hunters' Guild here, and if you want to sell something, you don't charge a consignment fee like the big shops, so since many years ago, this kind of spontaneous temporary market has quietly sprung up in the major cities of the Orc Kingdom of Campas.
The residents of the Colossus of Osaydi always refer to it as a 'miscellaneous street' with a smile, which may also mean that they look down on this place, but to a certain extent, it also sums up the characteristics of this place.
Almost everything can be sold in the sundry street, from all kinds of new and old weapons and armor, to furs, clothing, and food, not only that, but also high-value magic cores, materials, treasures, and even many miscellaneous unknown things found by adventurers can become goods here.
It's just that because the bazaar almost never pays taxes, the City Watch will not bother if there is a dispute in the process of retrading. To put it bluntly, this is a kind of place similar to the black market in the human kingdom, except that almost all the merchants in it are temporary cameos made by adventurers and freedom fighters.
However, the chaotic street has its own unspoken rules, the first of which is that no fighting is allowed here, even without the use of weapons. In addition, there is no slave trade in Sundries Street, after all, most of the orcs are the most ordinary civilians, and in their home villages, they are almost always mixed with strong and weak races.
Therefore, compared to the arrogant orc nobles, as well as orcs such as the permanent residents of the Colossus of Osaydi, the most ordinary orc commoners have an attitude against the existence of slaves. So even if these civilians can't change anything, at least in the street they are adamantly resistant to the slave trade.
(It feels a bit like the street stalls made by the mercenaries in Beidou City, but the proportion of old things here is really a bit too much...... )
Walking in the middle of the miscellaneous street, Zhang Yang, who was wearing a cloak, was surprised to find that he was not conspicuous at all. I don't know why, many of the orcs who sell things on this side of the sundries street are also wearing cloaks like Zhang Yang to hide their appearance completely.
It's just that I don't know if it's a little late at the moment, and the stalls selling things on the street are actually a little sparse. In contrast, there are not many people who buy things during the journey.
"How do you sell this short sword?"
Zhang Yang had already browsed more than a dozen stalls along the street at the moment, but there was nothing in these stalls that he could look at.
In fact, it takes luck to find the real goodies on this side of the Miscellaneous Street, after all, most of the goods here are hunting, so all the weapons and armor are somewhat damaged.
What's more, Zhang Yang's current body shape after transformation is too petite, so that the weapons used by most orc warriors are a little too huge for him at this moment.
As for the other jerky, dough cakes and the like, Zhang Yang already felt full just by looking at their stone-like luster, and besides, he could already use the space ring, and he was not short of food at all, so it wasn't until he saw this short sword nearly half a meter long with a leather sheath that Zhang Yang stopped and asked.
"Gladius? Hehe, it's obviously a long dagger, but for you, it can be used as a short sword. Ten silver coins, you can pay directly if you want, if you think it's expensive, the dagger sold by the guy opposite only costs five silver coins, you can buy him. ”
The orc who set up the stall in front of Zhang Yang was not wearing a cloak, so Zhang Yang could see the identity of his sheep orc at a glance, but this tall sheep orc warrior with at least three orders of strength was now wrapped in thick bandages on his chest and left arm.
Perhaps sensing that the thin guy in front of him was staring at the blood stains coming out of the bandages on his chest, the expression of the sheep warrior sitting crookedly on the ground suddenly eased a lot.
"It's just a little bit of an injury, it's not a big deal. Speaking of which, this dagger is very sharp, and although the material is not first-class, if you put it in the store and sell it, you can't buy it for less than thirty silver coins. So it can't be cheaper, but if you can pay right away, I've got a small belt that I can give to you. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Yang was really a little strange, he didn't expect that he didn't say a word, and took the initiative to give himself a belt for convenience, which seems to be no different from taking the initiative to reduce the price, right?
Moreover, this sheep orc warrior had persuaded himself to buy the cheap dagger on the other side before, this kind of businessman Zhang Yang had encountered for the first time in order to attract guests for other peers, instead of selling his own things.
Although he didn't understand why the other party's attitude changed suddenly, Zhang Yang, who had some understanding of the character of the orcs, understood that he had to make a statement whether he bought it or not. As soon as the power of his soul was released, the hand hidden under the cloak moved slightly, and twenty silver coins bearing the imprint of the Orc Kingdom of Campas and ten gold coins of the same style were already in the pocket of his coat under the cloak.
"Ah, ten silver coins."
Zhang Yang's payment so happily may be a bit unexpected by the other party, you must know that the Meng clan is difficult to make money because of its generally weak strength, and it is always a bit ink to bargain repeatedly when buying things. Moreover, this sheep warrior originally thought that the other party would choose the bargain on the other side, so until he subconsciously took the money, his slightly rough face was still a little incredulous.
"Ugh! That's right, it's ten silver coins, and the dagger and belt are yours. ”
Ignoring the sheep warriors who were a little stunned, Zhang Yang handed over the money and leaned over to put away the short sword. But no matter how you look at it, this is a short sword, at least Zhang Yang holds it in his hand, and it feels that except for the slightly thicker grip, everything else is good, so that if you use that straight knife to fight, your empty left hand will also have a weapon available.
"It's a dagger."
“…… Well, whatever you want to say, it's already your stuff after all. ”
After bidding farewell to this sheep warrior, Zhang Yang lost interest in continuing to wander, and at this moment he felt that a few dozen meters in front of him was the place where the thing that was exuding faint fluctuations and attracted him to it was.
……
(This is it, I didn't expect to see it in the Orc Kingdom of Campas...... )
At this time, Zhang Yang was standing in front of a stall set up by an elderly pig orc with a lame leg. In fact, Zhang Yang didn't think that he would be able to meet a fifth-order powerhouse with fifth-order strength in the Osaydi Colossus City casually, but judging from the gray hair, loose muscles, and disappeared left leg of this pig orc powerhouse, even if he still had a fifth-order level of blood qi energy in his body, his real combat power was only afraid that he had already fallen below the fifth order.
Speaking of which, there are only a few items on the stall, one of which has a handle of one meter and a thick-backed war knife with a blade almost the size of half a door panel; a huge carapace covered in slash marks; a jet-black sharp horn of unknown material; and a broken hilt decorated with many skeletons and a fist-sized dark red translucent crystal in the center of the stall.
And compared to the deserted state of other stalls, there were more than a dozen orcs of various races in front of this stall, but there were so many people watching, but there was no one who could really make the old pig clan powerhouse answer!
How strange is this situation, it wasn't until Zhang Yang finally squeezed through the cracks in the crowd that he found that there was a piece of animal skin with the price written on it underneath these items, and even Zhang Yang was shocked when he saw it!
