A few days later, Fang Zhen and Ace were shopping at the Taowu stall, and when they were bored, a stranger came over. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Mr. Solomon, it's great to see you. Lord Durroux is looking for you, Exchange Restaurant, etc. After saying that, the stranger left, and Fang Zhen didn't even remember what this stranger looked like.

I guess this stranger is the subordinate of the cultivator.

"Hey, hey, Duru, this guy is finally looking for me, let's go, Ace, let's go knock something more. Fang Zhen touched his chin and said with a smile.

Ace seemed to be accustomed to Fang Zhen's humanized demeanor, but when he heard the three words, he still became excited for no reason. After all, I have deeply understood the meaning of these three words.

The exchange restaurant seems to be more crowded today, Fang Zhen was dressed in an intermediate magician robe, and walked into a box with Ace, who looked like a little speeder party costume, a box with very good sound insulation.

"Yo, I don't need to cast a soundproof barrier now, it's for my sake, Duru. ”

Fang Zhen saw Du Lu again, but found that this guy was dressed in aristocratic clothes, luxurious robes, sparkling rings and earrings. It's not at all like the down-and-out hunter outfit he had when he first returned to Thundergrass City.

"Get used to it, this is also forced by Leke. Du Lu didn't get up to greet him, and after seeing Fang Zhen coming, he just took a sip of the wine in the glass. He didn't even smile, and he looked very cold.

Frowning slightly, Fang Zhen sat down slightly puzzled. At the same time, he motioned for Ace to sit down as well.

Ace also wondered that Du Lu had reversed the flattering attitude when they had met, and sat in the closest place to the door under Fang Zhen's eyes.

This is also the common sense taught by Fang Zhen, once something happens, you can first close the door and beat the dog, or run away.

As for Fang Zhen, he specially sat opposite Dulu. After all, it's a big round table that can hold twenty people. The box is large and luxuriously decorated.

"What, Du Lu, you just ate, your face is so stinky?" Fang Zhen couldn't help but sneer when he saw that there were no dishes on the table, just a few bottles of table wine.

Ace on the side wanted to laugh when he heard this, but he still managed to maintain a calm expression.

But Durrous frowned, and said, "What do you say, Mr. Solomon, don't always say things that I don't understand." ”

After saying that, Durou's face stinked even more.

"Okay, no more nonsense. What did you ask me to do, I don't believe you wanted to invite me to dinner or something. Fang Zhen took out a bottle of Hagenti wine and a cup from the magic light belt, and drank it to himself.

Duru took a breath, then leaned forward with his arms on the table, looking like a cuckolded turtle.

"Mr. Solomon, although you are still a teenager, I know deep down that you are more like an adult than we adults. Durrous groaned for a moment, then continued, "Did you go to see Lek?"

"See, that guy is quite arrogant, I don't look very good. Then he took a small sip of Hagenti wine, chewed it a few times, and couldn't help but close his eyes and savor it.

(High-grade Hagenti with a small amount of crimson fruit.) The crimson fruit is a fruit that contains a small amount of fire element, and the flesh is finely chopped, and it is often used as an alchemical herb to make it with Hagenti to make it taste better. ）

"Did Leke try to buy you and give you the same deal I mentioned?" Durroux narrowed his eyes.

"That's right, his conditions are quite tempting. One hundred purple gold coins and five thousand magic crystals, five thousand! But only three thousand green pine crystals and two thousand orange citrine. I guess if it's all orange and citrine, maybe your father has a little heartache, haha!" Fang Zhen suddenly finished pouring the Hagen wine in the cup and exhaled heavily.

"Five thousand magic crystals, what a big deal! Mr. Solomon must not be able to resist the temptation, right?" Duru's face was a little gloomy.

"What? Resist? I didn't resist at all. With so many magic crystals, I don't have to worry about cultivation. Fang Zhen put the wine bottle and glass into the magic light belt and stood up suddenly. Keeping an eye on Durou, he said, "If I hadn't seen Leke, how would I have attached the tracking mark to him." Duru, you better prepare your Thundering Grass King, I won't confiscate any deposit!

After speaking, Fang Zhen bypassed the large round table, opened the door and left. Ace followed.

And Duru did not speak until the end, and was silent as if he was struggling with difficulty.

"Mentor, why is this Duru suddenly like this?" After leaving the Exchange Cafeteria, on the way back, Ace raised doubts in his heart behind Fang Zhen.

"He's starting to distrust us. After all, we took Leke's deposit, and he just gave a blank check. Fang Zhen thought in his heart. "But it's understandable, after all, he is the son of a nobleman in Thundering Grass City, and he must have been very cautious in employing people. ”

"Oh! I see. By the way, tutor, what is a blank check? Is it a Chinese word?" Ace is very enthusiastic about learning Chinese.

"The empty check itself is a harbinger of a lie, so I'll explain it to you in the future, we don't seem to have eaten yet, right? Let's go, buy some food and go back, this time I won't pack it." The kitchen at Di Ruo's house is also quite large, but the ventilation is not so good. Fang Zhen touched his stomach and said comfortably.

"So what are we going to do?" Ace asked.

"It depends on Durrou's attitude after that. However, the source of thunder and lightning of the Thundering Grass King, I am determined to get it!" Fang Zhen hooked the corners of his mouth, revealing a confident smile. And behind the smile, I don't know what the idea is.

When Fang Zhen and Ace came to the nearest vegetable market, they learned that this was a market in a high-level civilian area. Not only are the people who come and go well-dressed, but even the vegetable sellers are very snobbish.

"Hey, boy, be careful with your hands, don't steal vegetables!" A vegetable stall owner with a thief's eyebrows saw Fang Zhen, who was dressed in a leisurely cloth coat, rummaging through his vegetable pile, raising his nostrils, and said dissatisfied.

Fang Zhen, who didn't want to dress formally and deliberately wore civilian clothes, actually had a day when he was looked down upon.

"No, no, no. I haven't been stealing vegetables for years. Let's go over there. There's a lot of seafood over there. Fang Zhen laughed, and then greeted Ace.

Ace was surprised once again that the mentor was not angry at all.

"Wow! That black-spotted double-headed fish looks delicious, I don't know if Di Ruo will make it, no matter what, buy it back and talk about it." Fang Zhen saw a large fish tank swimming in a black spotted fish half a human length with two heads.

The Black Spotted Two-Headed Fish is a second-order water-based magical beast, but it has low attack power, and is huge, likes to eat plants in water, and was once hunted by other magical beasts. However, it has a strong adaptability to the environment and a strong reproductive ability, so it is domesticated by the human race as food, and the price is expensive.

"Mentor, this fish looks like it's been growing for at least twenty years, and it should taste good, so it's still a big supplement!" Ace has spent five years in the Razor Forest, and is familiar with the aquatic products of rivers.

"Boss, how do you sell this fish?"

The owner of the fish stall is a neatly dressed aunt, but the foundation is too thick and the makeup is too poor. I saw the long slaughtering knife in her hand and said, "This child, this fish is precious, have you brought enough money?"

"Are you afraid that we don't have any money? Really!" Ace was upset at this moment, he didn't expect that even the vegetable sellers in the high-level civilian area looked down on people so much.

"Of course I'm afraid!" the aunt of the fish stall walked over, propped up the fish tank and crossed her waist, and said with a contemptuous face: "The black spotted two-headed fish is an expensive aquatic product, and I have raised this fish for twenty years! ”

"Oh! It turned out to be the treasure of the town store, so may I ask the beautiful eldest sister, how much does this expensive black-spotted two-headed fish sell? We are really curious!" Fang Zhen, who had been holding the fish tank and staring at the two-headed fish inside, complimented with a smile.

As soon as she heard someone call her beautiful, Aunt Yu's stall immediately smiled like a "chrysanthemum" flower, and the orchid finger gently brushed her chin, making a cool breath rise in Ace's back and goosebumps on both extremely hard arms. Subconsciously hid behind Fang Zhen.

"Little boy, you really have vision, eldest sister, I'm still very young. Don't think about this fish, it's been bought by Viscount Morik for 10,000 gold coins. I'm raising this fish, but that's what I'm waiting for. Oh, hehehe! When you sell this fish, how about you come to my house as a guest?" After speaking, he also threw an eyebrow at Ace, a teenager who was dressed in a fashion comparable to that of a "speeder".

At this time, Ace finally discovered the "terrible allure" of this fish stall aunt, and only felt his stomach start to roll. Holding back the nausea, Ace hurriedly used Fang Zhen as a shield to avoid all temptations.

"10,000 gold coins bought, Viscount Molik likes to eat fish so much?" Fang Zhen rolled his eyes and asked.

"That's not it, it's said that he doesn't like to eat fish very much, otherwise my fish stall wouldn't have a bad business. Aunt Yu's tone turned out to be grumbling. Ace thought about it and covered his ears.

I saw that the aunt of the fish stall continued: "It's not that Viscount Molick announced that he was going to hold a drinking party, so he came to the vegetable market here to buy food. Like the old guy next door, who had been selling purple star vegetables for more than ten years, was actually bought by the viscount all at once. Now I'm sure I'm going to find a happy little girl in an alley. ”

Purple star dish is a purple dish in the shape of a pentagram, which has a fishy taste and is not liked by ordinary people. However, some nobles like to use the juice of purple star vegetables to make wine, and the wine is particularly fragrant.

"Why did Viscount Morik hold a drinking party?" Fang Zhen was puzzled, he guessed at first that it was used to hype and promote his Thundering Grass, but when he thought about it, he felt that something was wrong.

"Hey, that's the big deal. Aunt Yu lowered her voice excitedly and said, "I heard from the chef who came to buy vegetables that the viscount is about to be promoted to earl! In addition, some time ago, from the direction of the Razor Forest, a very rare thundercloud floated in, which is even stronger than the thundercloud of Razor, so the thundering grass must be harvested." If there are a few more thunderclouds like this, and a few more drinking parties, I'll make a lot of money, haha!"

When Aunt Yu Shi smirked to herself, Fang Zhen quietly left the market with Ace after listening to it.

Along the way, Fang Zhen raised his head and was thinking.

The first time Ace saw his mentor looking up and thinking as he walked, he didn't bother. So the two remained silent and returned home.

"You're back!" Hey, you didn't buy vegetables, do you want to nibble on bread at noon?" Di Ruo grabbed the spatula and kitchen knife, and said with a dissatisfied face: "Anyway, I don't care, but don't starve your students, my brother, are you starving to death with such a talented student......?"

"Shh......h

"Hanston, come out. Fang Zhen didn't take Di Ruo, he walked to the bench and sat down, and raised Erlang's legs.

Hanston walked out of the room, still holding a book.

"Master, what's wrong?"

"Tell me about the aristocracy of the Aslan Empire. ”
