Chapter 660: Poseidon Festival
In the underwater city of Yamagatata, black coral trees divide the city into circles, and the various areas are scattered and gradually brightened from the bottom to the top near the sea.
The upper floors are the brightest below the surface of the sea, and are full of large buildings of all kinds.
For example, huge turtle shells, huge conch shells, giant shells, and a large number of fishbone houses.
The middle floor is the most lively, with a large number of fish people coming and going, and many shops and vendors.
What attracted Su Ye the most was the fish heads, slices of fish bodies, rows of fish bones, and colorful scales and fins in the underwater market.
Su Ye saw from a distance that a pair of fish-man mothers and daughters with colorful kelp tied around their waists were standing in front of a fish stall, and a one-meter-tall white fish-man girl pointed to a row of fat, red and white fish bellies.
The girl's mother looked down at her purse, and after a long while, she pointed to a blue fish head. She looked at her daughter again, and the blue fish head seemed to be half the size of her daughter, and immediately moved her finger to point at the smaller blue fish head.
The stall owner quickly took off the fish head, handed it to the little girl with one hand, and collected the shellfish with the other.
The little fish-man girl excitedly spit out a series of blisters, holding the head of the fish bigger than her own, opening her mouth, revealing two rows of sharp little teeth, humming and gnawing, broken scales flying around, and blood overflowing.
The other fish-man children not far away looked at the little girl, drooling and had to stuff their fins into their mouths to block them.
The lower ordinary settlements, which are further away from the sea and darker, are either very laid-back or very busy.
The junction between the island and the seabed is pitch black and deep, and a large number of fish or fish-people are buried in the sand, and garbage is constantly being dumped everywhere, and they open their mouths and devour it greedily.
"Is it a holiday today? You see, all the merfolk either have aquatic plants on their heads or kelp around their waists. Su Ye asked.
Red Scale immediately replied, "Your Excellency the Seagod Priestess, we are very lucky, in a few days it will be the Seagod Festival, and it is also the grandest festival in Black Coral City and even the nearby seas. ”
The rest of the Sanctuary fishmen glanced at the red scales with displeasure.
Just your mouth is fast!
"Oh, Poseidon's Day." Su Ye suddenly realized that this festival is very important, and he has heard it many times in the communication between the water element and the fish people, but he has not understood it in detail.
Looking at the vibrant Black Coral City and the peaceful and festive atmosphere, Su Ye was full of interest.
These days are either fighting, studying, or communicating, and almost forgetting to rest.
"Let's take a stroll around Black Coral." Su Ye Dao.
Black Fang immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Excellency, in Black Coral City, except for the fish-people who can enter at will, non-fish-people need to enter the lower area to pay 'treasure coins' and obtain residence qualifications before they can enter the city to live. ”
"Baby Coins...... There seem to be a lot of them in the space conch. Su Ye said, taking out a space conch half the size of a fist, and purple shell-like coins flew out of it.
"This is the purest Zibei coin, a treasure coin worth 10,000 yuan. Basically, your wealth is not inferior to those ordinary high-class fishmen. Blackfang's tone was a little helpless, and the expressions on the faces of the rest of the fishmen were a little strange.
All the wealth that fell was more than enough to be richer than that of an ordinary high-ranking fishman.
"Let's go, let's buy a residency permit, and besides, is there anything to be paid attention to in this black coral city, we have to follow the local customs. Can I wear colored aquatic plants or colored kelp? I found that there seemed to be very few people who could wear colored aquatic plants. ”
"Only the higher fishmen can wear seaweed headdresses, and the average fishmen can only wear kelp. However, we, the ordinary fishmen of the Sanctuary rank, are also eligible to wear seaweed headdresses. You are a Sanctuary, even if you are a foreigner, you are eligible to wear a seaweed headdress. In addition, you have the symbol of the god of the sea's blessing, although it may be considered an accident and not necessarily the actual blessing of the god of the sea, but the fish people will definitely look up to you. Of course, if you show off your noble bloodline a little, your status will be different and you will save a lot of trouble. Black Fang said.
"Then I'll show the power of the blood of the water elemental priest." Su Ye Dao.
Su Ye put away the water ship and the statue of the fish god, and led the seven Sanctuary fishmen and twelve golden fishmen to swim towards the city, while the rest of the fishmen were stationed in the town outside the city under the sea.
Showing the power of the water elemental priest, everything went very smoothly, and some old fishmen saw the colored light fins on Su Ye's shoulders, and even hurriedly saluted.
Most fishmen don't care.
After obtaining the residence qualification, Su Ye went to the business district and first bought a colorful aquatic plant headdress to wear, which was officially integrated into Black Coral City.
The commercial area of Black Coral City is full of fish and tourists, and the colors are gorgeous, just like a smart fish museum.
In addition to the Fishmen, there are many Water Elemental People, as well as a small number of Krakens, Sea Monsters, and Sea Elves.
The Krakens here all follow the Fishmen, either as retinues or as slaves, and are not eligible to wear the Aquatic Grass Headdress or the Kelp Belt.
"What's the difference between a high-level fishman and an ordinary fishman?" Su Ye asked while wandering around the bazaar.
"A fish-man who can feel the breath of the sea god is a high-class fish-man. They are able to absorb the residual power of the sea god in the whale country, so their strength is extraordinarily strong, and compared to us, they are simply not a race. ”
Su Ye nodded, this should be like a human demigod nobleman, able to grasp the power of Shenwei or other gods.
Su Ye followed the black tooth and other fish to continue to wander around the business district.
Try something special, even if it's a dark dish.
Occasionally, participate in the entertainment activities of the fish people, such as entering a hot spring, being massaged by various small fish and even gnawing dead skin, or riding a turtle cart, the most thrilling thing is entering the electric eel valley, and being electrocuted all over the body.
In addition to entertainment activities, there are also some interesting competitions that only exist during festivals, such as fish scale peeling competition, fish bone removal competition, fish eye competition, as for the weird various dance competitions, Su Ye can't participate, the dance of the fish man is too ecstatic, and it is simply a per capita belly dance master.
In the process of shopping, there are often enthusiastic water element people who take the initiative to approach Su Ye and invite Su Ye to accompany them, but Su Ye politely refuses.
The black tooth and other fish people were very surprised, they didn't expect Su Ye to be so popular with the water elemental people.
At the same time, there are also many sea tribes who look at Su Ye with various eyes, especially the colored light fins on Su Ye's shoulders.
Eating and drinking all the way, walking and playing, Su Ye spent half a day happily.
"Take me to the commercial area where valuables are sold." Having played enough, Su Ye said his true purpose.
"Please follow me." Black Fang and the others took Su Ye to the high-end magic item area.
Dense shops are lined up one after another, and there is a wide variety of treasures and magical items that are hard to find in Greece.
Looking at these shops, Su Ye nodded, after many people entered the Whale Country before, as long as they left alive, they would definitely return with a full load.
Fortunately, I was prepared.
There is no shortage of magic metals, magic water plants, all kinds of beast bones and blood, and no shortage of all kinds of jewelry, but the whale country lacks magical items rich in earth elements, fire elements, and light elements.
Su Ye found a shop that purchased magic items and found out that there had been several groups of outsiders in Black Coral City, and a large number of outside magic items had been sold, resulting in the current price being half of the normal purchase price.
Su Ye calculated carefully, even so, he could earn five times the profit.
Use this money to buy Whale Nation magic items and sell them in Greece, and the total profit can reach twenty times or more.
No wonder the plane marker of the whale country is so popular, even if you don't dare to take the risk, as long as you enter this kind of underwater city, sit back and wait for the plane of the whale country to close before leaving, it will be the income of millions of golden eagles casually.
Before coming, Su Ye had already prepared.
Prepared goods worth 10 million golden eagles, but unfortunately the time for the opening of the whale country is too close, if you wait, this number can be doubled.
Next, Su Ye led Heiya to sell to various shops, and he was very restrained, only half of which was sold.
Even so, it has single-handedly lowered the purchase price of All Black Coral City.
The purple shell coin in Su Ye's hand had reached a terrifying level, and even Red Scale, a loyal and dedicated fishman, was red-eyed.
In the Fishman Tribe, Su Ye got a total of one million Zibei coins, and after selling half of them, the total number of Zibei coins in Su Ye's hands reached six million.
Next, Suye began the first round of procurement.
The outsiders who came first had enough to buy a lot of things, and the market prices of many items were obviously high and normal, or even bought short.
Some of the potions and magic metals that Su Ye wanted to buy, which were particularly popular with magicians or warriors, turned out to be either very expensive or out of stock.
After walking for more than an hour, Su Ye only spent more than 100,000 purple shell coins.
"Blackfang, there should be other trading places in Black Coral City? I don't believe that such a big city would be bought out by so many people. Su Ye said.
Black Fang smiled, "Your Excellency's wisdom is the same as the sea, filling the entire whale country. In fact, in Black Coral City, there are many places that only high-level fishmen can go, and those outsiders can't enter at all, and no amount of Purple Shell Coins is useless. It's not about money, it's about spies who are worried about the Kraken. ”
Su Ye had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and said: "I suddenly remembered your profession, selling stolen goods is your housekeeping ability, and you must know top businessmen." ”
The fish-men laughed modestly.
"We don't have access to those places either, but you know, not all of the High Fishmen have a lot of wealth and great power, so they just use their privileges to run some gray businesses. So, we can go into those places as retinues. You are not a fish-man, and you can't even enter as an entourage, even if you have the blood of a water elemental priest. Unless...... You assumed the identity of the Poseidon Priesthood and gained their trust. Black Fang said.
Su Ye stared at the dark purple fish eyes with black teeth.
Blackfang smiled humbly.
The rest of the fishmen bowed their heads.
Only the red scales scratched with his fingers under the scales on his abdomen, and whispered, "It's originally a sea god priest, so I don't need to show it." ”
