Chapter 33 Mutual Market

When the day's competition was over, when Bai Nanxiang returned to the courtyard, Cun Derong also returned.

He is well-versed in his ears and eyes, and when he came back, he also brought a piece of news.

A student from Tianxi Academy had a conflict with General Wuwei's grandson when he visited the Qinglou last night, and he was killed by mistake.

Early this morning, General Wuwei made trouble in front of the Son of Heaven to avenge his grandson.

His Majesty sent a lot of fire, recruited the student of Tianxi Academy and the consul of the academy, reprimanded him severely, and finally canceled the student's qualification for the competition, and punished him to go to the camp in Northern Xinjiang, and he was never allowed to return to the Central Plains for the rest of his life.

The northern frontier of Xia Huaguo borders the Frost Moon Continent, which is a land of bitter cold.

Because the Frost Moon Gate dominates the northern frontier, a small half of the soldiers guarding the northern frontier are aliens.

The student of Tianxi Academy was the second son of Cao Taishou of Yanzhou, who dared to commit murder at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and would have been beheaded if he were an ordinary person.

But not only was this man not beheaded, but he got a petty official who did not enter the stream and went to serve on the frontier.

The reason why the Son of Heaven judged like this was not because this person had any terrible background that made the Son of Heaven jealous, but simply because this person was a student of Tianxi Academy.

Although the aliens are held hostage by the imperial court, they have more rights than ordinary people, and even the Son of Heaven is unwilling to offend them too much.

Although such a verdict is unfair, it follows Xia Huaguo's consistent rules.

It has been two hundred and thirty-two years since the founding of Xia Huaguo, and there were strangers to help each other when the country was founded.

Therefore, the emperors of Xia Huaguo have treated strangers well, even if they are from humble backgrounds, as long as he is willing to obey the dispatch of the imperial court, he can get preferential treatment.

It is precisely because of this that the dignitaries and dignitaries of Xia Huaguo are willing to send their children and grandchildren to study in the Yiren Sect.

This soon spread in the Inhuman circle, and while the Inhumans lamented the boldness of the man, they were not surprised by the court's punishment.

It was the first time Bai Nanxiang had encountered a stranger, and she secretly felt that such an unfair treatment seemed inappropriate, but this matter was too far away from her, so she didn't take it to heart, and just listened to it as a vernacular.

On this evening, the mutual market of the college officially began.

Bai Nanxiang and the others followed Lin Sheng and Lin Jin through the portal of the academy and entered the square of the mutual market.

There are two ways to interact with each other.

One is to register the name of the sect and pay a certain fee to sell the goods you want to sell in the stalls designated by the square.

One is to enter the auction hall and charge a certain percentage of the handling fee after the bidding purchase is completed.

Such government-run trading venues are all transactions with clear directions, and the prices are more expensive than those on the black market, but the quality is guaranteed and there is no need to worry about being robbed after buying something.

The value of the goods in the auction hall is much more expensive than the goods sold in the stalls.

As soon as the mutual market began, Lin Sheng entered the auction hall.

Bai Nanxiang and the others didn't need any precious materials soon after they started, and secondly, they didn't have much money on their bodies, so they didn't follow Lin Sheng in.

Lin Jin took them to walk slowly around the square, and when they came across something they liked, they helped them take a look at it, and then weigh whether the price was appropriate.

After looking at a few stalls and asking the price a few times, Bai Nanxiang had an illusion.

It seems that the silver and silver tickets have turned into stone and paper in the mouth of the stranger, and the silver money has suddenly become worthless.

Anything inconspicuous is priced at two, and it can cost hundreds of thousands of taels at every turn.

Listening to these prices, Bai Nanxiang had the illusion that the two hundred silver taels that she had collected in her arms like a treasure were really not worth the matter.

There are all kinds of things sold in the square.

From weapons, ritual weapons, prayer beads, wooden fish, to spiritual grass, elixir, and even jewelry and jade, rouge gouache, clothes and skirts, everything is available.

Cun Derong seemed to like jade very much, and he lingered for a long time at a stall that sold a lot of jade, and finally fell in love with a small snail.

The small snail is said to be carved from spiritual jade, the shell of the snail is blue-gray, but the body of the snail is orange-yellow, and the two colors actually appear on a piece of spiritual jade at the same time, and the boundary is clear, as if two different pieces of jade are spliced together.

The most rare thing is that by touching this piece of spiritual jade with spiritual power, the little snail can swim flexibly as if it was alive.

Being able to move is the only spirituality of this piece of spiritual jade, and compared to other spiritual objects, this little snail is a plaything.

However, such a plaything was still sold at a high price of three hundred taels of silver.

provoked Bai Nanxiang on the side to smack her tongue secretly, she secretly glanced sideways at Lin Jin on the side, as if she wanted Lin Jin to stop Cun Derong.

Unexpectedly, Lin Jin watched unmoved, and only before the final transaction, he returned a price that he thought was suitable for Bai Nanxiang and was slaughtered by the wronged boss, two hundred taels.

In Bai Nanxiang's opinion, this price can be cut down by at least fifty taels.

After the transaction, Cun Derong paid without frowning, and happily tied the little snail to his waist and became a small ornament for him.

Only then did Bai Nanxiang realize that although Lin Jin followed them with the reputation of taking care of them, he couldn't count on him in the matter of buying and selling things.

After that, several other people made another move, and Bai Nanxiang couldn't bear to see her classmates become wronged, so she took it upon herself to bargain for them.

So, Chen Peng bought a knife that looked domineering at an opening price of 1,000 taels, and the final transaction price was 482 taels.

Wang Nianlu took a fancy to a small sword, and the price was nine hundred taels, and the final transaction price was three hundred and ninety-seven taels.

and Zhao Bo's brush made of demon wolf hair, which was sold for one hundred and twenty-one taels.

These odds are all made by her after consciously understanding the other party's floor price.

Her fluctuating bargaining operation provoked the classmates behind him, and they were amazed, and later, if any of them wanted to buy something, they had to pull Bai Nanxiang first and let her go out to talk.

A few people walked and bought like this, and when the mutual market was almost over, they had finished half of the stalls.

Seeing that it was not early, some stalls had already begun to close, and Bai Nanxiang was still ready to go back.

Halfway through, Bai Nanxiang only felt that something seemed to pass by in the afterglow, she turned her head curiously and found that there was a stall selling spirit beasts in one corner.

There were a lot of strange animals in the stall.

There were fiery red rabbits, three-legged toads, horses that could speak human language, and an eagle that was a whole adult height.

What attracted Bai Nanxiang was a five-colored bird that was tilting its head to look at her.

The bird was only the size of a palm, fat and mellow like a colorful braised egg, and a pair of black eyes that were not slippery and round looked dull and unexpectedly cute.

At a glance, Bai Nanxiang was attracted by this little bird that looked a little silly.
