Chapter 68: Scalpers
Fat Kerry has been squatting in front of the restaurant where Lu Ya and the others are staying since noon yesterday, and there are many people who are squatting like him, all of whom are afraid that they will not be able to grab this batch of goods, so they sleep on the streets en masse, and the benefits produced by these fine iron tools are worthy of them.

Just now, although he didn't know why, the cart that he wanted to push out was called back, but he felt that something might happen.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for House himself, the steward of the bazaar, to come to the restaurant, and in a short time he walked out with a smile on his face, which strengthened Fat Kerry's thoughts.
"It will take a lot of trouble to buy those iron tools this time."
Just when Fat Kerry was thinking nonsense, more than a dozen people walked out of the restaurant, and the first one was Xiong Er, who had been following Lu Ya's side, and the people behind were all slaves.
After the people left the restaurant, they dispersed, and after a while, the whole tribe heard a detailed description of tomorrow's auction.
"Blackstone, isn't it the old Henry's old little building?" Fat Kerry had a flash of inspiration when he heard Blackstone.
When he heard the introduction of the identity tag again, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he pushed away the crowd around him in two or three ways, and ran towards the small building where he remembered the old Henry, his fat body dodged the pedestrians around him left and right, and he was extremely flexible at this moment.
"Sure enough, hehe" Fat Kerry, who was panting all the way, looked up at the shop in front of him with his hands on his knees, and the sign with the words 'Black Rock Fang' hung in front of the door.
"Hehe, it seems that I was the first to find it, what a chance" Fat Kerry gasped twice, looked around and raised his leg and walked towards the door.
As soon as he walked into the store, Fat Kerry was stunned by the situation in the store, and he saw the young mixed-race man named Luya, standing behind the counter, and under the counter were kneeling two tall wrestlers, and they were still high-level wrestlers, but the most shocking thing was that the corners of the mouths of these two high-level wrestlers seemed to be covered with blood, and the half-breed hand was also reaching out to the two.
"Oh my God, did I find something, is this half-blood boy a descendant of a large clan, or a human nobleman" Fat Kerry stared blankly at the field with his mouth open, and his brain made up a lot for a moment.
"Okay, someone is coming, you guys hurry up and find some palm-sized planks as I said, let's go" Lu Ya saw someone enter the store, and quickly ordered Boone and Johnson, after these two people ate the ginkgo seeds, to Lu Ya's surprise, they were all promoted to the level of senior wrestlers, but the only fly in the ointment is that the pool of water has no effect two days after leaving the pool, and the two are actually a little injured now, but according to what they said, they can heal in a few days at most.
After eating the ginkgo seeds, the two of them already understood the preciousness of this inconspicuous fruit, and it can be said that it was not enough to sell the two of them dozens of times to exchange those fruits, and it was precisely because of this that there was the scene that Fat Kerry saw.
"Ahem~ Hello, may I ask you... Uh, it's you" After Lu Ya sent the two away, he put on a harmless smile and just wanted to ask about the visitor, but he found out that he still knew this person, and it was the fat man who was quite verbose yesterday.
"What's the matter" Lu Ya rolled his eyes angrily, he was really annoyed by this kind of person who had nothing to do.
"I... It's not... You... This..." Fat Kerry saw Lu Ya's face change, and thought that Lu Ya wanted to hit someone, and he was nervous and speechless.
"What kind of eyes are you, I won't eat you again, what are you here for, selling things or, buying things?" Lu Ya looked patiently at the fat man in front of him.
"Buy, buy, I'm here to buy something" Fat Kerry thought for a while, feeling that this was in the bazaar, and the other party couldn't control himself, so his courage gradually grew.
"Oh ~ what to buy" Lu Ya looked at him with interest, in fact, Lu Ya had a small dream when he was a child, that is, to open a small shop by himself, no matter what he sells, the main thing is that the feeling of being a boss makes him feel fun.
"The brand, that's the identity card of the auction," Fat Kerry finally began to speak, but it also changed his verbose problem.
"Hey~ Someone is here so soon, Xiong Er did a good job this time" Lu Ya secretly praised Xiong Er in his heart, and then said.
"Bring the money, 5 silver coins"
"Now, this is 1 gold coin, I'll buy 20" Fat Kerry carefully took out a polished gold coin from his arms and put it in front of the counter.
"Uh, twenty?" Luya was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled. "It seems that this fat man is still a scalper, hey~ Do business, do it on my head, okay, then play with you"
"Twenty, okay, no problem" Ruya picked up the gold coin without hesitation, and then put it in his arms.
At this time, Johnson and Boone had already put a small pile of slap boards on the counter, and Ruya took one casually, and then said without raising his head.
"Give the names of the tribes and the names of the individuals"
"What, what" Fat Kerry was stunned for a moment, and then he felt that things were going to be bad.
"What, ask the names of the people who will participate in tomorrow's auction and the tribe they belong to, there are twenty in total, hurry up" Lu Ya held the pen and lowered his head, with a triumphant smile on his face.
"This, I... Can you just give me the sign, I'll fill it in myself," Fat Kerry whispered.
"That's definitely not going to work, we have to ensure the personal safety of all the participants, we must register with their real names on the spot, you hurry up and call all your 20 friends, otherwise I won't be able to register you" Lu Ya raised his head and stared at Fat Kerry with a smile.
"Then, then I won't buy it, you give me the money" Fat Ke quickly stretched out his hand and said.
"Well, are you here to entertain me, look at how much we are bullied in Blackstone Workshop, and you will play with me when you get up in the morning" Lu Ya's eyes widened, and Boone and Johnson, who had just come back, also stepped forward, and the aura on their bodies emanated, which frightened Fat Kerry into sitting on the ground, and Fat Kerry, who was just about to retreat, suddenly felt that the light was dim, and when he looked back, he saw two members of the market guard wearing rattan armor standing behind him, and he listened to the two of them.
"Your Excellency, in the name of the captain, the two of us have come to assist your lord in maintaining peace and order, please command."
"Hehe, the two of you have worked hard, just bother the two of you to maintain order in front of the door, and stop them if you don't have any money or make trouble," Lu Ya finished speaking, and also glanced at the fat kerry on the ground out of the corner of his eye.
Fat Kerry watched the two guards lead the way in a daze, thinking that the half-race boy in front of him was a priest, and he actually wanted to take advantage of a priest just now. Suddenly, I felt that today was simply eight lifetimes of blood mold, and I wanted to make a small fortune with my cleverness, who would have thought that at this moment, not only would he not make money, but he might also lose the old capital that his family had worked hard to save for several years.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt remorseful, so I didn't care about my image anymore, got up and threw myself at Luya's feet, crying and begging for mercy.
"My lord, I'm blind and blinded, I want to take advantage of you, I really know it's wrong now, please let me go"
"Oh~" Lu Ya stopped talking after a sigh.
"No, my lord, please give me that gold coin, that's what I've been saving for years to find a good mother-in-law for my baby, if I go back like this, my mother-in-law can really tear me up raw" Fat Kerry's eyes were about to fall.
Seeing that such a big man was about to wipe his nose on his new clothes, Lu Ya quickly took a step back.
"Get up, the money can be given to you, but~"
As soon as Fat Kerry heard that there was a joke, he quickly climbed forward twice and asked.
"But what, if you have any use for me, you can speak"
"Hey~ You're quite interesting and can write?"
"Yes, yes"
"That's right, so be it, it seems that you also know how this brand is sold, and the task of selling this brand today will be handed over to you, do a good job, and let you enter for free tomorrow" Lu Ya took out the gold coin after speaking, and threw it to Fat Kerry with a flick of his finger.
"Thank you, thank you, Lord Priest" Fat Ke grabbed the gold coin in his hand and sent Ruya and Boone upstairs with a thousand thanks, while he was watched by Johnson, who was also sorting things on the first floor, waiting for the customer's door.
The second floor of this small building was used as a warehouse by old Henry, so there was no partition, Lu Ya came up and looked around, and found that in addition to a pile of goods for sale in the corner, there were only two wooden beds and a few load-bearing columns covered with only a layer of thin animal skin, and the entire second floor area was about 100 square meters.
"It's a little embarrassing for you, it's really a little aggrieved to put the two of you here, after a while, things are almost arranged, you all go back to the tribe" Lu Ya looked at the somewhat shabby living environment and sighed with some emotion.
Then, Lu Ya began to tell Boone to set up, pile the bed and sundries into the small warehouse on the first floor, and after cleaning it, Lu Ya wanted to tell Boone to buy dozens of stools, but then he thought that it was a waste, so he asked Boone to build a dozen large benches several meters long.
In the end, I found a wooden board and ordered a simple auction table, which was covered with a piece of linen cloth and could not be seen shabby, so I put it on the wall, standing in front of the auction table, Lu Ya held a small mallet in his hand, looked at the rows of large benches below, and then shouted with a face of 13.
"Deal"
