Wu Ling and the others watched the transaction between the shopkeeper and the guests.

The guest took a bottle of high-quality two-pot head, and the shopkeeper gave two gold coins, and the guest wanted to ask for a few more, but the shopkeeper was too annoyed to chase the customer.

The customer seemed to be a regular customer, and he spoke to the shopkeeper very well: "Hans, just give me one more gold coin, I'm really in big trouble, can you do me a favor?"

The old man's name was Hans, "This is already the highest price, and with your usual style, you will go to other houses before coming to me, and no one will give you more than two gold coins, right?"

Guest: "Please, Hans?"

Hans said impatiently, "Either leave the wine and leave with two gold coins, or take your wine and leave." ”

The guest touched the two gold coins on the table knowingly, and before leaving, he said to Wu Ling and the others: "Don't talk about business with this stingy old guy!"

After the guests left, Hans invited Wu Ling and them to sit at the table.

Hans: "Don't believe the gambler, his father left him a farm and he lost it all. I don't know who stole this bottle of two pots. ”

He looked at Wu Ling and asked, "Are you ...... Wu Ling?"

Wu Ling nodded, and he was not polite, "It's the old man." ”

Hans warmly shook hands with Wu Ling, "Hello, my name is Hans. ”

Wu Ling: "Did you know me before?"

Hans: "No one at my age who likes the Battle Servant Race, doesn't know you, the winner of the King's Cup. ”

Gasol, who was sitting on the side, said: "Since we are acquaintances, let's put a high price on our wine." ”

Hans: "It depends on what kind of wine it is." On Mars, low-alcohol wines are not welcome, and even the most expensive wines cannot be sold for a price. The minimum alcohol content cannot be lower than 50 degrees, which is the minimum standard for good wine. ”

"How's vodka?" Wu Ling took out the wine from his arms and put it on the table.

Hans picked up the wine and looked at it, "Uh-huh...... The top-of-the-line crown vodka is genuine. How did you get this bottle of wine?"

Wu Ling: "Why are you asking this, it's not stolen anyway." ”

Hans pretended to be mysterious: "Have you heard, last night, Master Wang Heng's earth cargo had an accident, and he lost a truckload of famous wine, and he is sending people to look for it everywhere."

Early this morning, he sent someone to say hello, and if there is a large deal, be sure to report it to him, and he will have a heavy reward. Master Wang also said that as long as the person who picks up the wine is handed in, not only will he not be held accountable, but he will also have a reward. ”

Wu Ling's face did not change, and said with a smile: "I really hope that the person who picked up the wine is me." ”

Hans: "Haha...... If the goods are in your hands, you must trade with me, and I will give you a high price. Recently, the coalition government has been very strict in its investigation of smuggling, so there is a shortage of goods in the market, especially for spirits like Crown Vodka.

Don't worry, I won't tell Wang Heng, that's a stingy guy, and the benefits he gives will definitely not exceed the profit of a bottle of wine. ”

Gasol was moved, "Actually, then ......" Wu Ling glared at him, and he swallowed back the truth that came to his lips.

Wu Ling said to Hans: "I really don't know which bastard has such good luck to pick up that batch of goods." Tell me, Hans, how much my bottle of wine will sell, neither I nor my servant have breakfast. ”

Hans had just noticed Gasol's reaction and asked him, "What did you want to say just now?"

Gasol understood that Wu Ling would not tell the truth, so he stroked his face and said: "Didn't you hear what my master said, we haven't had breakfast yet, you hurry up and give us the wine money, we are going to eat a whole filet mignun." ”

Wu Ling was serious: "Hans, you'd better listen to him, I'm a war servant, I'm very short-tempered, I can't restrain him." ”

Hans visibly shuddered, "Okay, okay, this bottle of Crown Vodka, for you...... Thirty gold coins. ”

"Thirty?" Wu Ling and the three of them all asked with their eyes glazed, they didn't expect a bottle of wine to be worth so much money.

Hans thought they were not satisfied, and said, "Wu Ling, because I used to be your fan of boxing, that's why I gave you this high price, and I won't give you an extra gold coin." You just demolished my shop, and it was the thirty gold coins. ”

"Ahh......h ”

Hans got up to get the gold coins, his cash box was at the back of the shelves, and he took out the key to unlock it.

Hua Zixuan came to his shelf and reached out to pick up a bottle of 'Chivas Regal Whisky', this bottle was the same as the one he had buried in the crater, it was a fine product, but it was an empty bottle.

"Empty?" Hua Zixuan said to himself as he held the bottle.

Hans at the back of the shelf said: "A bottle of such a top-notch Chivas Regal is purchased for 28 gold coins, and it is placed on the shelf, in case it falls." All samples here are empty. ”

28 gold coins, Hua Zixuan remembered.

He picked up an empty bottle of Bacardi rum, the same as his own, and asked, "Hans, what about this rum, how much do you pay for it?"

Hans was counting the gold coins and said casually, "Thirty-two." ”

Hans counted the gold coins, held them in his hand, and handed them to Wu Ling.

Hua Zixuan took an empty bottle of Rémy Martin brandy and asked Hans, "What about this wine, how much does it cost?"

Hans was a little impatient, "Why do you ask so much, can you have this top-notch wine?"

Wu Ling: "Hans, you'd better answer him quickly, his temper is very short-tempered, and he will throw the wine bottle on your head." ”

Hans took two steps back, "30 gold coins, if you sell them to me." ”

Wu Ling put the gold coins into the money bag, and the price of the wine was known, the task was completed, and he was in a good mood, and said to Hua Zixuan and Gasol: "Okay, children, let's go, I'll take you to eat fritters." The big fritters in Black Market Valley are authentic. ”

Hans stared at Wu Ling, "If I'm not mistaken, you still have a bottle of good wine in your arms?"

"No, no......," Wu Ling said, "it's an empty bottle, and I'm going to sell the vodka and get a cheap bottle of beaded fruit wine to drink." ”

Hans: "That's right, for us Martian civilians, it's not wine, it's gold, you can't drink it." ”

Wu Ling shook hands with Hans, "Happy cooperation, I will come to you again if I have good wine in the future!"

Wu Ling took Hua Zixuan and Gasol to a famous hotel, and the people on the street were bustling and lively.

Gasol asked Wu Ling, "Daddy, why don't you sell that bottle of rum too, so we have another 32 gold coins." ”

Wu Ling: "In this Black Market Valley, every merchant is cunning. In order to get his goods back, Wang Heng must have promised Hans a great benefit, and Hans was deliberately seducing us. ”

Gasol: "I almost got him out of the way." ”

Wu Ling: "Let's not rush to make a move on our wine, wait until the limelight passes." Even if the limelight passes, you can't make a move at once; ”

Hua Zixuan: "Dad, didn't you say you wanted to invite us to eat fritters?"

"That's right!" Wu Ling pointed ahead, "Look there, there's beef offal soup." ”

They came to a small stall, which was a husband and wife business. Deep-fried fritters, and beef offal soup.

Large fritters cost 20 silver coins a piece, and beef offal soup costs 30 silver coins a bowl.

Wu Ling shouted: "Boss, three bowls of offal soup, three roots, uh...... Five bars, five big fritters. ”

Hua Zixuan: "I feel that the prices here are higher than those in Hellas City." ”

"That's right," Wu Ling said, "because the merchants here have to pay a very high tax burden to the valley owners of the Black Market Valley. ”

"Oh?" Hua Zixuan asked, "Is there still a valley lord here?"

Wu Ling: "Of course there must be, otherwise, who will maintain the order here, and who will build the infrastructure." The most important thing is that the Black Market Valley is a thorn in the side of the Lord of Hellas City, and the Lord of Kato is eager to burn this place down with a fire.

If it weren't for the valley lord protecting here, the scale of the Black Market Valley would not have been so large, and those soldiers in the valley would have to be paid.

You see, here's a small city of Hellas. All kinds of buying and selling, you name it. There are inns and merchant houses. Further on, there is a large area of dwellings. ”

"Houses?"

"Yes," Wu Ling said, "some of the slaves who escaped from Hellas City have nowhere else to go, so they have come to the Black Market Valley." The lord of the valley will take them in. After all, in order to confront the city lord of Hellas City, the valley lord also needs to replenish his troops. ”

Hua Zixuan: "Then this is still a refuge for slaves?"

Wu Ling: "You can say that, but it's only for the strong, and they don't take in the weak."

The overall living environment here is still not as good as that of the city of Hellas. ”

Gasol: "In short, Black Market Valley is the opposite of Hellas City. ”

Wu Ling nodded.

At this time, the boss served three bowls of beef offal soup and five large fritters.

Each person has a bowl of beef offal soup, Hua Zixuan and Gasol each have two fritters, and Wu Ling has one.

Gasol picked a piece of tripe with a spoon and frowned, "This is a bowl of beef offal?"

Hua Zixuan: "Don't say its scientific name, it's a little disgusting." Call it offal, or offal, very nutritious. ”

"My hometown never eats this. Gasol picked up a spoonful of offal, put it in his mouth, and tasted it, "Uh-huh...... It's really not bad, it's much better than potato flour. ”

He took another bite of the fritters, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, "I've eaten this......! It's delicious! It's good to have money, and when we have a box office share, I'm going to eat this every day. ”

While eating, Wu Ling asked Hua Zixuan: "Have you calculated how much our wine is worth?"

"Hmm......" Hua Zixuan chewed on the fritters, "I can't do it." ”

Wu Ling: "Then you pick up a stone and draw an equation on the ground." ”

How much are these wines worth, Hua Zixuan also wants to know.

He held a fritter in one hand and a pebble in the other, and drew an equation on the ground.
