Chapter 1307: Just as I wanted
This makes Lin Li a little strange, you must know that there is no high seas here, the entire sea area belongs to the Jindu Kingdom, does the Mermaid have to drive all the way to the outside of the Jindu Kingdom's sea area? However, he soon understood that the Mermaid was not afraid of the inspection of the Jindu Kingdom, but some secret merchants did not have the face of the Mermaid. When the Mermaid was far away from Helena Harbor, ships of all sizes also emerged from the night and approached the Mermaid.
"Master Ferry, the Secret Merchant Market is about to open, let's go over together." Donald was also a regular visitor here, and as soon as he saw the ships coming, he immediately walked up to the front of the forest and reminded him.
Lin Li nodded, took Conneris and Angelano, followed Donald and Prince Tory to the cabin, and asked as he went, "Master Donald, those ships should be the cargo ships of some secret merchants, right?" ”
"Yes, these secret merchants dare to sell anything, and sometimes they directly drag the sea monsters over. However, most of these ships are filled with slaves for sale, or precious sea creatures. Donald explained to Lin Li as he led the way.
Although the Mermaid is large enough, it only provides a place for trading, and it is impossible to load everything directly on this ship. In particular, as Donald said, there are few things that the secret merchants dare not sell, slaves, sea creatures, or anything that can easily cause trouble, cannot be brought on the ship. If you want to buy those things, after the deal is concluded, the Secret Merchants Alliance will send someone to supervise the handover of the goods to ensure the interests of the guests.
Under Donald's guidance, Lin Li and the others soon came to the Mermaid's cabin, which was a very open space, like a huge square. And at this time, here, those secret merchants have already placed their goods in their respective positions.
Putting aside all other factors, this is simply the scene. It reminded Lin Li of the farmer's market before the crossing. Of course, compared to the messy farmer's market, it's much more neat and orderly. Here, whether it is a guest or a secret merchant, it seems very quiet, quietly touring all kinds of goods, quietly waiting for customers to come to the door.
In the entire cabin, there are about 100 stalls. Each stall is about two meters wide. According to Donald's introduction, these secret merchants are the lowest grade, and through the door at the end of the cabin, you can also reach the last time in the cabin, where the things are truly boutique.
However, for Lin Li, it doesn't matter if the quality is not high-quality, the key is to be useful to himself. What is useful to oneself is the most valuable, and what is useless is the only one in the world. That's useless either. What's more, the secret merchants who can come here, even if they are of low grade, how low can they go.
Thereupon. When Donald was about to take Lin Li and them directly to the upper floor, Lin Li declined Donald's kindness and said, "Master Donald, Prince Tory, you go first, I'll take them around." ”
Donald also knows that everyone has their own secrets, and if he can bring Lin Li here, this is already a favor. If you really follow every step of the way, it will be disgusting. I came to this kind of place for Taobao, and no one wanted to find anything by myself, and it would be known to others immediately.
Therefore, after being rejected by Lin Li. Donald didn't show any disappointment, but said politely: "Okay, then Master Ferrey take your time, Tolly and I won't bother, I hope you can find something you like here." ”
Donald and Tory soon left. Lin Li took Conneris and Angelano and began to slowly browse the stalls of the secret merchants from the beginning. This secret merchant market is very different from the gift of the sea, the gift of the sea is basically based on various resources, while the secret merchant market is rare and rare.
However, there is one point, this secret merchant market does not care whether the goods are real or fake, and if you want to buy the real thing, you have to rely on your own eyesight. If you buy a fake thing, you can only consider yourself unlucky, not only will the secret merchant who sells it not be returned, but the secret merchant alliance will not do anything about this kind of thing.
For example, in front of a secret merchant stall, Lin Li saw an imitation of the Titan Dragon Gun, the appearance of which was completely copied from the epic mythology, and it only contained some thunder and lightning power. And the most fake thing is that the size of this Titan Dragon Gun is only two or three times larger than the war spear used by normal humans, and the Titan Giant may only be able to use this as a toothpick.
There are also those who sell treasure maps, saying what is the mausoleum of the Great Monarch of the Sea Clan, although Lin Li is not sure that the picture is fake, but think about the fact that the Sea Clan has not perished, even if the picture is true, who dares to dig the tomb of the Great Monarch of the Sea Clan! Or on the other hand, if the treasure map is real, then why didn't the secret merchant dig it himself, isn't the treasure in the mausoleum as good as the money from the sale of the map?
To put it simply, it's like an antique market, with fakes and genuine goods, and you can only blame yourself for buying fakes. But on the other hand, there are times when secret merchants are distracted, and it is not uncommon to sell genuine products as fakes. Therefore, it can also be said that this is a battle between buying and selling, and whoever loses should not be wronged.
Of course, there are only a few fakes, even if those secret merchants wear masks and are not afraid of reputation, but the secret merchant alliance will not want their signboards to be smashed by fakes. Although the Secret Merchants Alliance does not require all the secret merchants to be genuine, it has its own set of evaluation standards, and if the secret merchants do too much and give shame to them, it will be light to be kicked out of the alliance.
For example, the second cabin where Donald and Prince Tory went, it can be said that there will be absolutely no fakes, and the grade is obviously one level higher than these secret merchants outside. And those secret merchants can enter, in addition to strength, the more important thing is that the credit has reached a certain level.
This time, there were quite a few guests invited to the secret merchant market, and there were thousands of people. Some people, like Donald and the others, made a beeline for the second-floor cabin as soon as they entered, but many more were like Lin Li, slowly browsing the hall. Fortunately, this hall is extremely spacious, although there are many people, it does not seem crowded, especially people with status, and they will not run around without grace.
Among these guests who came, there were naturally many acquaintances, such as Prince Jonathan of the Kingdom of France, Prince Jereme of the Kingdom of Ryding, Archbishop Enros of the Temple of Light, High Priest of the Temple of Darkness Sendros and so on. These people are not like Lin Li, who has not been in the Anriel world for a few years, with their status. It is not surprising that anyone who has not participated in the Sea Market a few times has become a regular customer of the Secret Merchant Alliance.
Not to mention those giants, even the representatives of those forces in the Light Wind Plains, such as Joseph and Klaus, are no strangers to this secret merchant market. After all, this secret merchant market is not only in the Jindu Kingdom, but there are also regular activities on the mainland, but the grade is definitely not as good as this time.
Although Lin Li saw some acquaintances, he didn't go over to say hello. And those people didn't come to him, they just nodded to each other. Everyone knows that this secret market is open for six or seven hours at most, and if you really want to browse everything here, this time is not enough. Greetings can be made at other times, so no one wants to waste time in the Secret Merchant Market, and they won't waste anyone else's time.
"Hey, President Ferry, you're here too!" Not all of us are so self-conscious. How could this kind of scene be without the famous Cantoli of the Jindu Kingdom. And by Contoli's side, there was another acquaintance who was also Lin Li, who was the eight-clawed Hyquis, who had to compete with Lin Li for the inscription level before.
The last time Cantoli encountered Lin Li in the market. said that it was a coincidence, but it was actually designed, otherwise such a big market, so many shops, how could it be so coincidental to take Haiquis to meet Lin Li. It's a pity that in the last design, Cantoli didn't get his wish in the end, and he didn't expect that Hequis didn't explode when his work was polluted.
And this time, it was a real coincidence. Cantoli really didn't expect to meet Lin Li again in this secret merchant market. Although he wanted to use the power of the Octopus Clan to deal with Lin Li, it was not easy to make things too obvious, and he was worried about how to find Lin Li again, and this coincidence really made him overjoyed.
So after seeing the forest. Contoli immediately pulled Hyquis to find him. In his mind, the last time Haquis didn't settle accounts with Lin Li, it could only be said that Lin Li ran too fast, and this time Haquith's anger should have a chance to explode.
However, Cantoli was only concerned with making trouble for Lin Li. But he didn't notice that Hequin's face was green behind him.
What Hequis is most afraid of now is meeting Lin Li, and the advice of his father and elders seems to be still in his ears. However, he couldn't pull his face, so he really tried to curry favor with Lin Li, so he could only hold the idea that he could drag on for a day, and avoid encountering Lin Li as much as possible. However, with the relationship between the two of them, Cantoli wanted to pass, and Hequis was too embarrassed to say no, so he could only follow behind with a bitter face.
"Oh, I heard there's a secret merchant market here, so come and have a look." Lin Li just glanced at Cantoli, then turned his head and looked at the things on the stall next to him, and said lightly.
In Cantoli's opinion, he is smart and smart, and he has never really torn his face with Lin Li. Although the relationship between them has long been well known, as long as they don't really tear their faces, they won't be like life and death enemies when they meet. And in this way, he can continue to get close to Lin Li, and then look for an opportunity to set up a trap for Lin Li. Unlike Nadrano, he came up and was at odds with Lin Li, but now he didn't dare to appear in front of Lin Li.
Although, for Lin Li, he didn't clean up Cantoli, and he just didn't take this person to heart. But this also shows on the other hand that Cantoli's strategy is still somewhat useful, if it is replaced by Draenor to talk to Lin Li, I am afraid that he will be thrown as far as he wants.
Seeing that Lin Li didn't care about his intentions, Cantoli suddenly hated in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface, and said with a little regret in his tone: "President Ferry, you probably don't know that the ink you splashed casually last time destroyed a master-level magic pattern. It's a pity, if you just admit defeat at that time, maybe you can still make friends with Big Brother Hyquis, and it doesn't matter if that master-level magic pattern is given to you. ”
On the one hand, Cantori blames Lin Li for not being able to afford to lose, and on the other hand, he tells Lin Li that he has missed an opportunity to get the friendship of Hequis. Of course, when he said this, he didn't feel sorry for Lin Li, but wanted to see Lin Li's expression of remorse. Although he had no way to let the Jindu Kingdom and the Tower of Dusk go to war, and there was no way to really trample Lin Li under his feet, he was able to strike his enemies in this way, at least he could get a considerable degree of pleasure.
You must know that in the Anriel world, if you exclude the Octopus clan, the number of inscription masters is very small, and the number of inscription masters is even rarer. Therefore, whether it is for an individual or a force, it is a very rare opportunity to meet a real inscription master.
Contoli had been an envoy to the Plains of the Breeze, and knew that it had only been a few years since the Tower of Dusk was built. And such a newly established force, if it can have the help of an inscription master, it is simply equivalent to less than ten years of struggle. If you let the other party know that you missed the opportunity to get acquainted with an inscription master, then you don't know what remorse will look like.
However, after Cantoli said this, Lin Li's side had not reacted, but Hequis was blushing with shame next to him. Yes, even the Octopus knows shame. Hequis knew very well in his heart that the level of the inscription of President Ferrey was difficult for even the Great Elder Hexis to match, and his own level was even more unworthy of carrying shoes.
Saying that the other party missed the opportunity to get his friendship, but Haquis still remembered the words of his father and the elders, how much he hoped that his octopus clan could get the friendship of this Ferrey president!
However, on the one hand, Hequis didn't want to embarrass his friend Contoli, and on the other hand, he really couldn't pull his face to say anything to Lin Li. Echo Cantoli? Hequis doesn't have such a thick skin, but if he really lowers his posture to stammer, he can't do it either.
Therefore, when Cantori was about to say something more, Hequis secretly pulled his good brother for a moment, hoping that he would not say anything that would make him blush.
It's a pity that Cantoli didn't know that the ink, which seemed meaningless to him, actually shocked the Octopus, one of the seven overlords. Sensing that he was being pulled, he thought that Hequis wanted to teach Nafere a lesson himself, and this was exactly what he wanted. (To be continued.)
