Chapter 16: Canyon Fishman Village
"There is still a construction toolbox missing, and there is still a construction toolbox ......" Yang Yi muttered, this is the fault of lack of knowledge, why don't you know that construction workers need construction toolboxes to use construction skills.
"Village Chief, this was originally the Goblin Ratchet City?" The fishman laborer suddenly asked after seeing Yang Yi's reaction.
"Yes, so what?" Yang Yi was puzzled.
"A day's walk south of Ratchet City, on the Caravan Coast, there's a fish-man village called 'Canyon Village', which is well-developed and occasionally trades with foreigners, and there may be a construction toolbox there." Fishman Laborer said.
"Really? The master of the power will go and see it right away. ”
Yang Yi rekindled his enthusiasm, he looked at this junior construction worker's fish-man hard labor, this is a fish-man with a flexible brain, and he speaks the aquarium language much more clearly and fluently than other fish-people, and more importantly, he is much more sensible than most of the fish-people in the village.
Yang Yi's character is to do what he says, and he immediately began to prepare.
First of all, take the remaining 21 silver and 62 copper after the last transaction with the goblin wanderer, the transaction between the fish-people is mainly barter, and for a long time, shells were the main currency of the fish-people, but now the fish-man villages that have contact with the outside world will accept coins to a certain extent. The shrimp shells of the level 2 slippery shell lobster people are lost in the village and cannot be used for the time being, so they also bring them by the way. In the past few days, fishing has caught a total of three blackmouth fish, and now they are kept in a puddle in the village, so it is better to bring them with them.
Ratchet Village is still very poor so far, Yang Yi thought for a long time, only the shrimp shell of the slippery lobster man he just got yesterday and the blackmouth fish he caught by fishing are still worth a little money, but fortunately, after Yang Yi learned the fishing skills, the probability of catching the blackmouth fish has obviously increased a lot. There are a lot of fishmen in the fish-man village, and if you want, you can catch a lot of black-mouthed fish, but unfortunately, the main value of black-mouthed fish is to use alchemy to refine black-mouthed fish oil, which is an intermediate material for alchemy, so unless there is an alchemist in the village to refine it immediately, the black-mouthed fish that is killed by harpooning ** or air-dried will lose its value.
Because he heard that it was a day's journey from here, Yang Yi decided to ride a turtle mount to go, so it is estimated that a trip back and forth plus the delay time in the canyon fish-man village will only be half a day, after all, the distance of the day's journey mentioned by the fish-man laborer refers to walking with feet.
In addition to the turtle mount, Yang Yi also brought the fish-man merchant and the fish-man beach walker Brak as a bodyguard, and the three fishmen rode the big turtle in the sea, and soon arrived at the canyon village. It's a large fish-man village far from the sea, and the whole village is embedded in a cliff canyon away from the shoreline, so that the fish-people only need to concentrate on guarding the exit of the canyon.
Yang Yi had also seen a fish-man village when he rode through this place on a turtle mount before, but he didn't pay much attention to it at that time.
Yang Yi left the big turtle in the sea, and the three fishmen walked to the canyon village together.
The Fish-People are usually extremely reluctant to land races, but the relationship between the various Fish-Man villages is relatively relaxed, and large-scale wars between the Fish-People are rare if there is no direct struggle for survival. At certain times of the year, the Fish-Man Prophet would organize several similar tribes to come together to exchange experiences and goods, but the village was too weak to qualify for such gatherings.
Yang Yi and the two fishmen were brought into the canyon village together after showing their intentions, and after entering the fishman village, Yang Yi has been paying close attention to the situation in the village. Like most Fish-Man Villages, this canyon Fish-Man Village can only be described as a clutter of mishap, with failed planning or unplanned building layouts, Fishman houses made of logs, leaves, and mud, and crooked passages in the middle of the village that are blocked by houses.
In general, except for the large area, dense buildings, and many fishmen, this canyon fish-man village is no different from other small fish-man villages on the merchant coast.
Yang Yi and the others were soon brought to a fish-man merchant, who was a fish-man merchant in the Canyon Fish-Man Village who specialized in foreign trade. Yang Yi inquired about the things he wanted to buy, but fortunately, the things Yang Yi wanted to buy were all commonly used utensils, so there was no shortage of fish-man villages of this size, in addition to this, Canyon Village also sold all kinds of rough quality level 1 and 2 weapons and tools, and even copper ore for sale.
This time, Yang Yi learned to be obedient, and he couldn't be in a hurry when things were about to happen, he had to take precautions and make some preparations. In Ratchet Village, there are now four talents who do not have corresponding tools: junior construction workers, junior weavers, junior herbalists and junior peelers, so they bought two of the four tools of the construction toolbox, the weaver's knitting gloves, the medicine picking shovel and the peeling knife, and only one of the three tools of the miner's hoe, the quarryman's pickaxe and the lumberjack's felling axe. These tools are only meaningful if they are in the hands of people with corresponding skills, for example, cutting down trees with a logging axe in the hands of a fishman without logging skills is not as good as using a higher-level, more powerful large plate axe, so it is a waste to buy too much to prepare before discovering the corresponding talent.
These 11 tools were traded for a whole pair of shrimp shells of a level 2 lobster man and 3 blackmouth fish, and then Yang Yi spent another 10 silver coins to buy 2 bottles of primary healing potions and 2 rolls of flax bandages
A fishman merchant with valuation expertise reminded him that Yang Yi made the transaction with peace of mind.
After the trade ended, the fishmen in the Canyon Fishman Village obviously didn't want the foreign fishmen to stay longer, so Yang Yi and the others left quickly. During this trading trip, Yang Yi had a general understanding of the situation in this canyon fish-man village, but it was obvious that this fish-man village still had the strength that Yang Yi did not see, for example, this fish-man village was willing to buy alchemy materials blackmouth fish and also sold alchemy products such as primary healing potions, which shows that there are likely to be alchemists in this fish-man village, you must know that the threshold for professions such as alchemists, inscriptions, and enchanters is very high, and it is possible to get started with legal professionals who know magic first.
After leaving the Canyon Fishman Village, Yang Yi hurried back, and soon they hurried all the way back to Ratchet Village, when the time was just noon, Yang Yi and they really only took half a day to complete the transaction and walked back and forth.
Yang Yi handed over the things except the construction toolbox to the old blind eye, and explained that he gave priority to the treatment of the fishman hunter who was injured by the lobster man's attack, believing that with the help of healing potions, he would be able to heal soon.
After explaining, Yang Yi personally selected 5 strong fishmen, and brought the fishmen with construction skills to the ruins of the dock again.
