Chapter 518: Buy, Buy, Buy
Not long after, Ellie and his entourage, carrying large bags and small bags, appeared at the door of the market and came to Su Wen and Ruijiana.
Compared to the five paintings packed up next to Su Wen, the total volume of the things they were carrying looked even a little larger.
"What are you buying?......
It's understandable to buy things in the market, but buying so many things is something Su Wen didn't expect. As far as he knew, they shouldn't be short of anything, right?
What's more, what can there be in this market, which is mainly made up of adventurers?
"Hmm, I want to think about it......" Ellie was stunned for a moment when Su Wen asked this, and then opened the bag, counting the contents of the bag, and said to Su Wen: "A little bit of materials, potions, equipment, and telescopes and other things, in fact, I didn't buy much, mainly because these things are a bit large, and if Heidi hadn't been there to stop us, there could have been more......"
"I'm here to help you avoid you being fooled!!" Heidi looked helpless.
The experience of the adventure group has given Heidi a lot of experience in identifying such products in the market.
"And you don't want to buy what you see!"
"But I can use all of these things......" Ellie whispered.
Heidi's face instantly had a "What's the use of these things?" on her face, but after her mouth trembled, she couldn't help but say it, only a sigh.
I hope I can use it......
After all, a good concept of consumption can only be cultivated by making some mistakes or taking some detours. When Ellie regrets her impulsive spending one day and realizes the mistakes she made the next time she suspects her impulsive spending, she can remember the lesson of this day, and the money is not spent in vain.
And all this money is "earned" by Ellie herself, and how to spend it is also her freedom.
Su Wen could only give some suggestions.
But......
Not only Ellie, but even Barot and Marina, two people who Su Wen thinks that the consumption concept is very healthy, also carried two bags, which contained something, I don't know what they were......
"I bought a pair of hiking shoes, and the soles are embedded with metal sheets! The outer skin is also a good old leather, and it must be handsome to wear!" Barlott excitedly explained his harvest.
This one...... It is probably a bit similar to the "camouflage style" and "military style" in the Su Wen world, which is a rough style that imitates the clothes worn by adventurers in peaceful areas.
Unlike the fashion masterpieces that come from the hands of designers, the pair that Barlot bought was the work of a pure adventurer. The first is to satisfy its own practicality, and secondly, it is its appearance.
Su Wen is a little uninterested in the "fashion" of this world, but young people like Barot are very interested in this kind of thing.
It's a young woman, after all......
There is another bag in Marlena's hand, but the bag in Marlena's hand is obviously one size larger, and it looks like it should contain two pairs.
Buy two pairs of shoes of the same style......?
After thinking about it for a while, Su Wen also looked at the same joints, revealing a relieved expression.
Ma Lina noticed the relief on Su Wen's face, but suddenly became a little embarrassed.
Wear one pair by yourself, and the other pair is naturally given to someone, right?
Yumi bought a set of leather shoulder straps with knife holsters, which were supposed to be for the hilts of the two swords, and in addition to that, various equipment that could better meet her ideal image of a demon hunter were also bought separately.
The things bought from these adventurers are much more practical than those sold in Academy Town, and even their appearance is more mature.
It seems that Yumi is still thinking about her "part-time job" as the "guardian of the house".
Among the several people, except for Heidi, who didn't buy anything and just helped Ellie with her bag, only Mia was the one with the lowest consumption.
"Ah, I only bought one...... Hmm, it's a musical instrument, right?" Mia said as she shook the bag in her hand: "This is called a piece string, and it is a relatively rare musical instrument, mainly because the production method is too troublesome, and it is necessary to use a fresh monster tail...... What's that monster called? I want to think about it......"
Musical instruments......
"What are you holding in your hand?" Ellie's sense of smell detected something in Su Wen's hand, and there was actually a breath that made her a little inexplicably familiar.
Although Ellie couldn't remember exactly when she sniffed the breath, her instinctive feeling remembered that it had given her an uncomfortable feeling......
How to say it, it's like eating a slice of lemon raw, sour......
"The five paintings that Regina bought. ”
Su Wen told the truth.
Draw?
Ellie groaned, and began to wonder when and where she had seen something related to "painting".
But it seems that the portrait of Faye in the dormitory of Suwen Academy, Ellie can't remember it for a while.
After making sure that nothing was missing, the group began to rush back. Because the day after tomorrow is the day of the "arrival of monsters" predicted by the ladder to heaven.
Su Wen and Rui Jiana, in fact, were also busy and slipped out for a while.
Although it is more important to explore the atmosphere and environment in the city.
Regina needs to check and approve the arrangement and coordinate the entire plan with the Emperor. Although it was not Regina who came forward to command, most of the course of action arranged by Emperor Malenor was done according to Regiana's intentions.
As for Su Wen, all he had to do was sneak into the palace and confirm Fei's status.
However, since he promised Regina, he still needs to have a snack on the control of the whole situation. Therefore, Su Wen needs some time to rest, so that he can face this farce with 100% mental state on the day of the monster's arrival...... Or maybe it's a real disaster.
"I remember!!"
Halfway through, Ellie suddenly came to Su Wen's side and said awkwardly, "The smell on the painting is the smell of the blood proprietress - it's the same as the painting in your room!"
"Yes, it's the work of Josephine and two other children. ”
"They came to the royal city...... Sure enough, is that Fei going to wake up?"
"yes, I'm about to wake up. ”
Ellie puffed her cheeks, thought for a moment, and then didn't ask anything. It seems that Ellie has not yet connected the two things of "Faye's awakening" and "the arrival of monsters".
......
At this time, in Josephine's stall, there was another man who looked a little older in the painting stall that no one had stopped at since Su Wen and Regina left.
The man's attention was entirely focused on the paintings that were put on display.
And Josephine also noticed that this man who seemed to be alone was actually protected by at least two people around him, and the aura on these two people was not ordinary people!
Are the dignitaries and nobles who are aware of the people's feelings ......?
“...... Girl?"
The man's shout caused Josephine to retract her divergent thoughts. After taking a closer look, Josephine found that this man's age, among human beings, should belong to the classification of "old people".
It's just that the old man's spirit is full of energy, and there is no trace of old age at all.
"What's the matter with you, old sir?"
Although Josephine was old enough to be the great-grandmother of the human race, Josephine added an old word before the title.
"You painted all these paintings?"
"No, no, no, it's a lot of people's work, and I'm just in charge of selling ......"
"So......" The old man was silent for a moment, then looked into Josephine's eyes and said seriously, "...... the price of these paintings?"
"It's all written on the frame. ”
The old man took a look, most of them were more than a dozen silver and dozens of silver prices, this is a relatively immature style of painting, but among these paintings, there are also paintings with a price tag of more than four figures, or even no price tag, these paintings, in the old man's eyes, are rare to see in a hundred years!
“...... I'm going to want all of these paintings. ”
The old man smiled and threw out something that surprised Josephine slightly.
The two young bloods next to them stood up in surprise and looked at the big customer.
Josephine smiled and began to recall social etiquette, hoping to leave a good impression on this big customer.
This royal city...... Sure enough, it's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, people who know goods, isn't there only one of them?
