Chapter Twenty-Seven: Shopping and the Tooth Mouse

Yi Mu packed it for a while, and hid the shriveled money bag as a layer of protection, which was the first lesson Zhang Shi taught him - protect his money bag. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

In fact, Yi Mu has little chance of encountering pickpockets, as long as he looks at the clothes he is wearing, most thieves must not be interested in him. On the other hand, of course, it should be attributed to the security of the town, and under the management of Mayor Dino, the whole town of Blackstone was in a period of prosperity and stability.

But no matter how prosperous the place is, there are always some people who live a poor life, such as the beggar in front of Yi Mu.

"Didn't such a powerful organization as the Sun Holy Sect help you?" Yi Mu sat on the edge of the street and said to an old beggar with a gray beard. In my heart, I still have feelings of indignation and dissatisfaction with this disciple of the Sun Holy Sect who has just taken away a large amount of crystal coins.

The old beggar said as he bit on the wheat roll, "It is a group of hypocritical blood-sucking rotten worms, who are not concerned with us poor people, but with the golden olives of the rich merchant aristocrats." The Sun Cult has decayed, but the Sun God is eternal, and his brilliance no longer warms the world all the time. ”

Yi Mu was a little stunned, he didn't expect that the beggar he casually met was a member of the Sun Holy Sect, and this disciple seemed to be extremely dissatisfied with the existing Holy See organization.

"How much do you know about the Sun Cult?" Yi Mu asked curiously.

"A lot."

"Can you tell me?"

"You doll have to know so much to do, if it weren't for the ・・・・・・," Yi Mu took out a handful of white crystal coins from his arms and directly interrupted the old beggar's words.

The old beggar swallowed his saliva, showed a slightly sad expression, and then pretended to be flattering and said, "Little rich man, what do you want to know? ”

"It depends on what you know." Yi Mu touched his chin and said.

After about half a day, the old beggar swallowed his saliva to relieve his dry tongue. After that, he quietly watched Yi Mu get a handful of crystal coins in his hand, as if waiting for the thing to change hands. Yi Mu touched his temples and digested a lot of information, and said to the beggar: "I'll ask you about it again, do you remember the group of scarlet warriors who came to our town about half a month ago?" ”

"Remember, remember, such a big show, who wouldn't remember." The old beggar nodded hurriedly.

"Do you know where they came from?" Yi Mu then asked.

The old beggar shook his head directly and said, "I don't know, they haven't revealed any information about their origins, but the mayor may know something." But it is also difficult to determine, after all, the identity of the person from whom he came from is certainly not ordinary. ”

"Check it out for me." Yi Mu said.

"This is for you, I'm giving you more good news." Yi Mu picked out two white crystal coins from the crystal coins in his hand and handed them to the old beggar.

"You, this, you, what about a handful of crystal coins, you!" The old beggar was stunned, with a sad expression of being deceived.

Yi Mu bared his front teeth and smiled evilly, "Did I say I was going to give you everything?" ”

"The way of the world has changed, the way of the world has changed, and even the little dolls have begun to deceive people." The old beggar wept and mourned, took the two crystal coins with one hand and said, "Anyway, I have told you a few days." ”

Pedestrians passing by didn't know what was happening, and couldn't help but glance sideways a few times. Yi Mu's face was slightly hot, and he put a crystal coin on the old beggar's hand, and said, "What you said before is not important, if you find the news of that group of people, I will give you a lot of crystal coins." ”

After taking the three crystal coins handed by Yi Mu, the old beggar quieted down with some satisfaction, and said to Yi Mu: "Tell the price first, otherwise you will be deceived again." ”

Yi Mu shook his head and said, "It depends on the quality of the message, this is not a good price, if you get what I want, I can pay you Amethystum coins." ”

When the old beggar heard Yi Mu's words, he said: "I didn't expect that you are not very old, and your courage and financial resources are not small. But," he deliberately paused, glancing at Yi Mu and continuing, "However, when the time comes, you continue this deceptive trick, hum. ”

"Do you know what a buyer's market is?" Yi Mu asked.

The old beggar was slightly stunned, obviously not knowing what the word meant.

"You know, I'm the buyer who paid for your news, and I can also choose other people to get the news, so you don't have the hole cards to negotiate with me. Whether your message is worth anything or not, it's up to me to decide. This is the buyer's market, the employer's market. Yi Mu raised his head and looked proud, as if to say, "Praise me." ”

"I don't understand." The old beggar said decisively.

Yimu "・・・・・・"

"Anyway, I didn't lie to you, I promised, I will pay you, if you don't agree, I will find someone else." Yi Mu said.

Seeing that the old beggar was still a little hesitant, Yi Mu said directly: "That's it, I'll come back to you in a few days, by the way, I don't know your name yet, so I'll call you Baibeard." ”

After speaking, Yi Mutou left without looking back. And the old beggar who stayed where he was didn't seem to understand when he had agreed. But soon he also realized that this was a business that could be done, and looking at Yi Mu's figure, the old beggar muttered, "Buyer's market? Maybe this kid has a talent for business, business? Haha" He looked up at the sky, squinting his eyes at the golden sun on the horizon, as if mocking something.

As Yi Mu said, he could find other people to inquire about the news. However, there are many reasons for choosing Baisu, on the one hand, as a member of the beggars, his information ability is much stronger than ordinary people. On the other hand, Baibeard's insight is different from that of ordinary people, and he must have had an unusual experience. Getting to know such a person is very beneficial to Yi Mu, who is young and closed.

Leaving the place where he had met the beggars, Yi Mu wandered to a lively trading area, where the streets were lined with all sorts of objects, some of which contained two square wooden basins filled with a variety of fish.

Among them, there is a small golden-red fish that is extremely eye-catching, which has attracted many sellers to negotiate prices on the spot, and has aroused a lot of onlookers.

"I heard it's a rare red fish!"

"Tut-tut, the fish seller is going to make a fortune."

"I heard that each of these fish that appeared last year bought nearly fifty amethyst coins at a high price!"

"Hiss" Many people who heard it for the first time couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, a fish can be sold for such a high price. Of course, the element of boasting is not excluded.

A group of onlookers gathered together and talked about it, envious of the lucky guy who caught the red shark fish.

Yi Mu also stayed and watched for a while, and then came to a vegetable vendor, thinking that before coming to this world, Yi Mu was still a small chef with some research, and his daily compulsory work was to follow a group of aunts to travel in the busy and crowded vegetable field. Under the guidance of habit, Yi Mu evaluated the familiar or unfamiliar vegetarian vegetables and fruits in front of him.

Seeing something very similar to ginger in appearance, Yi Mu subconsciously picked it up and broke it and smelled it carefully, but unfortunately the taste was not what he expected.

"White taro, two pieces of one crystal coin." Again, the boss's offer was not what he was expecting.

After spending three crystal coins and picking out six pieces of white taro, the seller wrapped them in special leaves and strings, and Yi Mu looked at them curiously. After that, Yi Mu came to a stall selling fruits.

Most of the fruits sold at the fruit stall were unknown to Yi Mu, and under the entanglement of the stall owner, Yi Mu had no choice but to choose a fruit called Zhanguo, which is similar to grapes. It's not that he chose it because it looks like a grape, but Yi Mu vaguely felt something different when he approached the small cluster of Zhan fruits, but the specific Yi Mu couldn't say, as if in that pile of fruits, it was fresher and more outstanding.

Yi Mu refused to pack it in leaf packets, and bought a fruit basket made of vines from the fruit stall.

"This is going to be a thunderous gift, at least not too shabby." Yi Mu thought in his heart.

Soon Yi Mu came to a place where the meat of wild beasts was sold, on the edge of the town, and the smell of blood was in the air.

Most of the meat sold here is the skin of slaughtered beasts, but the most common is a creature called a toothed rat. Most of them are fat like penguins, with short limbs and tails as short as a button, and they don't seem to be anything special except for a somewhat menacing complexion and slightly exposed teeth and teeth.

The appearance of this kind of toothed rat is probably due to the fact that their meat is relatively tasty, and at the same time, it is easy to raise, so there is more such meat in the market. In the eyes of the people of this world, the toothed mouse is a chicken, a fish, and a kind of meat. Of course, it is also a relatively expensive meat.

Yi Mu was a little dazed, because at this time he saw another strange toothed mouse in the wooden cage looking at him, different from other toothed mice, in contrast, he was relatively 'thin', with a pair of purple-black pupils. The strange thing was that it kept staring at Yi Mu's eyes, as if it had found something strange to it.

One man and one beast stared at each other curiously for a long time, Yi Mu had an urge in his heart to take this toothed mouse home, but soon, I don't know what the reason was that the toothed mouse seemed to lose interest in Yi Mu, and lay at the bottom of the cage, humanely lowering his eyelids, looking a little sad.

Yi Mu touched his shriveled money bag, sighed, and prepared to leave, turning his head to look at the toothed mouse again, and at the same moment, the strange toothed mouse climbed up and stood upright and funny like a human, staring at Yi Mu with a pair of purple-black eyes.
