The so-called Salvin Square, located in the center of the foggy capital, is named after its former "owner", the Count of Salvin of the empire, who was very fond of the island.

In terms of class attributes, Count Darvin was indeed an evil colonial ruler, but from a purely humanist point of view, this young nobleman was quite enlightened and benevolent leader. On the other side of a river, he built a large garden-shaped plaza in his city, allowing all citizens, including people from Earth, to enter and play. After thinking about it for a while, I built three basement floors under the garden, designing it in the form of an underground shopping mall and a complex.

It soon became the largest shopping mall on the three islands, with a daily flow of people and merchants.

It is said that when the community and the earth gained independence, it was proposed to rename this square, which was a symbol of colonial remnants, to be called Independence Square, or Freedom Square. However, after the empire has ruled for so many years, there are still a lot of old and young people left, and these people have changed into new ** and continue to be their powerful countrymen.

They began to move up and down, and the reasons they put forward were also high-sounding: "Changing the name to avoid the traces of the previous generation is a betrayal of history, and it also shows a lack of confidence in the future." ”

Anyway, after such a period of operation, the name has never been changed, and with the death of Marshal Li, the government and the opposition have had a period of chaos, and this name, which is full of flavor from the previous dynasty, has been retained.

"Salvin Square, I'm familiar! Until I was twelve, I had to play here almost every day. I've been to almost every store. Gongsun Qing introduced Yu Lian like this.

Yu Lian was skeptical. You know, this Salvin Square has three floors, large and small shops are probably tens of thousands, and the daily flow of people is also above one million people, the security is not good, and there are many corners that cannot be photographed by various surveillance. If a little girl with a pink carving does not have an adult to play here, she will disappear today, and tomorrow she will probably be in some slave market hundreds of light-years away.

However, if you think about it carefully, with Gongsun Qing's level of genius, it is not the kind of goods that can awaken the three-year-old spirit and evolve the five-year-old star ring, and ordinary human traffickers are simply here to deliver food.

"I know the antique shop you mentioned! It used to be called the House of Trend, but then the old man took over his granddaughter and changed the name to the House of Trende and Nair. Why don't I take you with me? ”

When the other party said this, he still showed great enthusiasm. Probably to thank Yu Lian for finally bringing himself to normal.

Yu Lian was very moved, but still refused the other party without hesitation.

Gongsun Qing once again showed a considerable degree of admiration for someone's straight man, made the promise of "see you on the moon", and said goodbye.

Yu Lian went directly down to the lowest floor of the square, which was also the smallest floor.

Walking here, the lights are a little dimmed, and the flow of people is much less. It's also understandable, though. Under the dim lighting, the signboards of the shops on both sides of the promenade seem to flicker in the shadows, gorgeous, brilliant, but always a little weird.

The shops are far from being as popular as the first and second floors of the upper floors, full of antique objects, calligraphy and paintings, handicrafts and decorations. The shopkeepers here are far less enthusiastic than you above, and they hardly come out to greet customers, but are all in their own shops, either painting and carving, or cleaning things, at most occasionally looking up, and giving a smiling face or two to the passing customers.

For a while, Yu Lian even had a feeling of visiting a ghost market at night.

Of course, if there are not always one or two taverns with ambiguous lights hidden in the cracks of these antique shops, and there are always some big sisters sitting at the door who can play very well at a glance, it will be more like.

Walking in the passage of this shopping mall below, Yu Lian could even hear the sound of the urban express rail rumbling next to him, which immediately added a few fireworks to this self-contained underground commercial street.

These networks, built before the development of light rail technology, provide almost seamless connectivity between the city and the outside of the city, and can be reached anywhere in the British Isles at any stop. Today, these trains have been in operation for almost 200 years and are still in good working order. It has to be said that the facilities repaired by the empire are at least true and sincere in terms of durability.

The citizens of Mishima and Wudu are already very accustomed to this kind of "rumbling" track and train friction sound, and the city will naturally not cancel it in order to save money.

"Don't buy anything here, even if you see something you like, don't show a look of likeness. In addition, there are no credit cards and no electronic payments, only cash. Precious metal currencies are the most popular and can be discounted. This is Gongsun Qing's reminder to himself before parting.

Yu Lian was very grateful to the girl for the reminder, but this feeling of once again treating herself as a rookie who has not been beaten by society is still not very pleasant!

Of course, there will be no good people who open a store in such a place, but it is certainly impossible to commit great evil. Otherwise, he would have gone straight to digging graves, so why do you need to do a fake antique business in this place?

Yu Lian walked for a few more minutes, turning around the zigzag route between the shops, deliberately avoiding the sight of the two who seemed to be looking at his wallet. Then, as he passed by an express car, he habitually swept over the food truck, and the words "Nair and Trende Fast Food" came into view.

Yu Lian stopped and gently tapped on the table of the food truck.

A figure bent down slightly, emerging from behind the steaming heat of the food truck. It was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, petite and delicate, with a ruddy face and a trace of water on her forehead. She is also a very beautiful little girl, not a stunning and shocking beauty, but she looks very comfortable, energetic and has a sweet smile, full of life.

"Well, may I ask ......" The little girl looked at Yu Lian suspiciously and shook her head.

"Excuse me, are you Miss Nair? Mr. Trende's granddaughter? ”

The girl was slightly stunned, and then showed a vigilant application: "Sorry, we don't buy insurance, and we don't need financing." ”

Do I look like a financial mixer? Is there anyone as handsome as me in the financial mix? I really want you to apologize!

"In addition, we don't speculate in stocks, we don't buy futures, and we don't sign any VAM agreements."

Although Yu Lian was a little angry, he still squeezed out a little smile.

"If you want to eat, please sit down, we have three ABC set menus today. Of course, there are also takeaway fried chicken and hot dogs. A box of fried chicken, a hot dog, and double the iced drink cost only 15 yuan. ”

“…… You fried chicken and grilled hot dogs on the third basement floor, don't you worry about oil smoke? Yu Lianqi said.

"Don't worry, don't worry, you have to believe in the architectural discipline of the Empire! The ventilation equipment is well done, and the top garden is the rainbow banyan tree cultivated by the first Earl of Salvin, which is the best super tree in the universe at regulating the climate. Even acid mist and flowing atmosphere can be purified, not to mention my little fume. Even if we eat hot pot here, it's no problem. You haven't been down for so long, haven't you felt like you're out of breath? ”

Is there a rainbow banyan tree planted in the park on the first floor? Yu Lian was a little surprised. In his memory, the kind of super giant tree cultivated by the Imperial Academy of Sciences can grow hundreds of meters tall if you are not careful, and the crown of a single tree can form a vast forest, like the elven main city of a fantasy strategy game in a previous life.

However, he had just entered the underground shopping street from the edge of the garden, and he had never seen such a towering giant tree with such a sense of existence!

"The Earl of Salvin is very tasteful...... He may even be a very paranoid person. He felt that the presence of huge towering trees in the interior of the city would affect the beauty of the city. You know, the whole fog is actually his work, and there is no room for imperfection. However, in order for the city's climate to adjust to the extent he wants, the rainbow banyan tree is also necessary. So, he simply started with tree cultivation, and he really let him succeed. The new urban banyan tree doesn't grow too tall, but the effect is not affected at all. ”

So, is it really worthy of Wenqing's obsession? Yu Lian sighed. But a young man has the action and technical power to realize his whimsy, which is a bit terrifying.

"This guest, see that you are so interested in Count Sarwin! Then it shouldn't be in the financial world. After all, most of the best people in the financial circle have no historical aesthetics. ”

Yu Lian felt that this little girl's prejudice against the financial circle was still too great, but he was not ready to correct it, and the people in that circle deserved to carry any blame.

"Then you must be a customer to our antique shop! The lord of our family was a retainer of Count Salvin, hehe, so, you know! Hehehe~~~"

Facing the little girl's big shining eyes, Yu Lian shrugged emotionally: "After listening to your introduction, I wouldn't be embarrassed if I didn't buy something from you...... Unfortunately, though, I'm here to find someone. ”

Nair's smiling face began to collapse, but it collapsed half and then condensed back again, because Yu Lian bent his arm slightly, and there was a golden imperial golden dragon between his fingers.

"Just ask." She smiled, but after thinking about it, she added, "But I can't remember those many people." If I didn't know each other, I wouldn't be able to. ”

"Do you remember this man?" Yu Lian called up the portrait of "Xia Li" drawn by himself from his personal terminal.

Of course, Yu Lian could also take out the photos obtained by the Sharing Foundation, but this would be too eye-catching. Anyway, he is quite confident in his painting skills.

Sure enough, the little girl just glanced at it, and her eyes shrank slightly. She raised her face again and looked Yu Lian up and down, very polite.

Yu Lian simply raised his face and let the other party see it clearly. Anyway, if you're handsome, you're not afraid of being seen.
