The twenty-seventh sister kiln
The mansion of the owner of the village is not much better, it is full of wolves, but the slaves and guards have begun to clean up.
The place where the pig is strong and meets guests is on the third floor of the main mansion of the village, which is also the commanding height of the entire Moon Cliff Village, and through the window on the stone wall, you can overlook the entire cottage.
As soon as Lin Xiao and Leopard Li entered the door, Pig Jianqiang greeted them with a smile, dressed in a silk brocade robe for investigation, with a novel style, and at a glance they knew that they were from the human world.
"I wanted to find two chatters a few days ago, but I didn't expect the sky to be beautiful, and in such weather, alas. The pig sighed with a smile while holding Lin Xiao's hand.
"I heard that this is also a once-in-a-century stormy day, I didn't expect to be caught up by us, we are okay, those who came from afar to catch up with the ruins are really anxious these days, and they don't have a chance to trade goods anymore. Lin Xiao shook his head helplessly.
"It doesn't matter. The pig waved his hand strongly, "The rules are dead, people are alive, I have already passed down the order, and this year's Moon Cliff Ruins will continue to open for three more days from today." ”
"That's great, so that everyone didn't come in vain. Lin Xiaoxi said.
At this time, there were faint cheers from the village.
"It seems that my order has been delivered. Pig Tough smiled and shrugged.
"The master of Dazhai is really a very thoughtful person, and his reputation is well deserved!" Lin Xiao praised.
"Where, it's just that I pig someone to do things, and I always want everyone to be satisfied, so I was also given a nickname 'eight-sided circle' by everyone, one is to describe me as fat, and the other is to describe me as thoughtful, hahaha. Pig Strong, laughing a little smugly.
"Hun name?" Lin Xiao blinked.
"Let's look at some famous heroes at the northern foot of the mountain, most of them are famous, some are self-proclaimed, and some are given by others. Some people are even more famous than their real names. Leopard Li introduced.
"Then does your father have a good name?" Lin Xiao asked curiously.
"My father wears Yang in a hundred steps, and his name is the Arrow, the name of the Bear Cave Lord you have newly met is the Thunder Palm, and the name of the Niu Valley Lord is the Crash Mountain. Leopard Li continued.
"Sounds so good!" Lin Xiao sighed again and again, and then asked curiously, "What about your name?"
"I'm an unknown junior, how can I have any fame, this name has to be broken out by myself. Leopard Li glared at Lin Xiao fiercely.
"Among the two people, the dragon and the phoenix, I believe that it will soon be the thunderous figure at the northern foot of our Wangduan Mountain, and at that time, why worry will not have a loud name. Pig Jianqiang snorted, and then said: "Speaking of which, giving people nicknames is also influenced by human beings. ”
"Influenced by humans?" Lin Xiao and Leopard Li were both interested.
"Yes, most of the human cities have built gladiatorial arenas, which are played with bloody gladiatorial killings, and there are many orc gladiators in them, and in order to strengthen the gimmick, humans will give these orc gladiators some scary names. A very small number of these orc gladiators escaped back to the orc world due to various opportunities, and they also brought this culture back, and slowly it actually became an orc custom. "The pig is strong and eloquent.
"The lord of the village has a lot of research on the relationship between humans and orcs!" Lin Xiao sighed.
"Hehe, there's no research. I was trapped in the human world for several years 20 years ago, although the process is unbearable, but the experience of these years has made me see the prosperity of civilization in the human world, and now although I am back, I always feel that orcs should not blindly suppress human civilization, and should study vigorously. When Pig Jianqiang said this, the expression on his face that had been smiling became a little serious.
"This can be seen completely. Lin Xiao raised his hand and gestured around.
The living room is richly decorated, very inspected, and full of human things.
Seeing Lin Xiao and Leopard Li looking around, Zhu Jianqiang became interested again, leading the two of them to look around, while detailing: "This is the silk wallpaper made by Ji'anguo, this is the lamb carpet produced in Rongdi, these two are red coral from overseas, and this is the ink treasure of Master Shangguan Haogu in the Snow Siege City......"
"It seems that the influence of human beings is indeed not small!" Lin Xiao sighed.
Zhu Jianqiang smiled and said, "The influence of human beings is not only in my small living room, in fact, the entire northern foot of Wangduan Mountain has been firmly grasped by human beings. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Lin Xiao asked.
"Don't look at the fact that human beings rarely set foot on Wangduan Mountain, but in fact, behind all the big forces in our northern foothills, there are human shadows. Just like our small Moon Cliff Village, it is also under the protection of Lord Zuo Cheng of the Principality of Tuanyue that it can be independent, otherwise, it would have been broken by the surrounding strong clans and robbed. Pig said strongly.
"I'm afraid this kind of shelter isn't free, right?" Lin Xiao asked.
"Of course, every year, I don't know how many goods, how many beautiful women, how many slaves, and how many rare treasures are constantly being exported to the human world. Human, on the other hand, constantly provokes the strife between the orc races, neither letting the strong nor the weak perish, so that he can always ride on us and suck blood. Wangduan Mountain is high and densely forested, which is not suitable for the human world based on agriculture, so this control method is optimal. Pig Jianqiang put away his smile and said with some sadness.
"The analysis of the owner of the village is very profound. Lin Xiao nodded silently.
This is actually to raze and raze, in Lin Xiao's original world, this kind of trick is by no means uncommon in history.
"What's the use of being profound, I still can't break free, and I have to pay tribute every year, so I will specially find Brother Leopard Xiao to talk about it. "Pig is strong and down to business.
"What does it have to do with me?" Lin Xiao was puzzled.
Pig Jianqiang smiled, motioned for everyone to sit down, and then pointed five fingers to one, only to hear a "Ding Dong", two golden gold coins fell from his palm on the mahogany table.
"This ...... Is this the entrance fee I paid?" Lin Xiao remembered, this was the entrance fee for one gold coin per person when he entered the Moon Cliff Village.
"That's right. This is an extremely old gold coin, and it is extremely precious. Brother Leopard Xiao, you actually used such a gold coin as an entry fee, it is conceivable that the treasure in your hand must have gone to the sea. I won't hide it from you, Lord Zuo Cheng is so ancient, if you give him some rare antiques, it is often twice the result with half the effort, and it can reduce a lot of burden. So today, I specially invited Brother Leopard Xiao to ask if there is anything good that can be cut. One thing you can believe is that you won't be at a loss. "Pigs are strong and very earnest.
Lin Xiao sighed secretly in his heart, this wealth really can't be exposed, so he sold a few gold coins, which attracted the attention of Ugin and Pig.
But this is not a bad thing, things don't have to go out but die, if you can sell something you don't need, on the one hand, you can buy what you really need, on the other hand, you can make some friends, why not?
Lin Xiao looked around for a moment, then suddenly stood up, walked to an eight-treasure shelf, pointed to a small pot-shaped vessel in the middle and asked, "Lord Dazhai, what is this?"
The pig didn't know what Lin Xiao meant, so he stepped forward to take this thing, and carefully handed it to him and introduced: "This is a piece of porcelain, don't look at it small, but it is extremely precious, with fine cracks all over the body, this kind of texture can only be fired by the legendary ancient kiln - sister kiln, and it has long been lost." ”
This small porcelain bowl is verdant all over the body, with a warm luster, and dense spider web-like cracks throughout, which is very chic.
After a pause, Pig Jianqiang said again: "This piece is actually an imitation of five hundred years ago, it feels slightly cracked to the touch, and it is said that the porcelain fired by the real sister kiln looks cracked all over the body, but it is smooth and moist like jade to the touch." Even so, this porcelain bowl is worth a hundred gold coins, because even the imitation technique of 500 years ago has now been lost. I'm going to give it to Lord Zuo Cheng, and it is estimated that it can be worth two hundred gold coins for ordinary goods. ”
"Then the master of the village, take a look, how much is this piece worth?" The space ring on Lin Xiao's finger shimmered for a moment, and a half-foot-high net bottle had already appeared in his hand, with a thin neck and a round belly, with a stretched shape, elegant green and a soft shimmer.
Pig Jianqiang took a closer look, and his eyes were round with astonishment, and the net bottle was densely covered with cracks, and it was denser and more uniform than that on the pot-shaped vessel.
The pig held his breath strongly, stepped forward to take the net bottle like a baby, touched it with his fingers on the inside of the bottle and the bottle mouth, his face suddenly turned red, and he couldn't speak for a long time with his mouth open.
"This ...... Is this the real sister kiln?" Pig Jianqiang muttered, as if asking Lin Xiao, and as if he was talking to himself.
"Yes. Lin Xiao nodded categorically.
In fact, Lin Xiao didn't know if this was a piece of the elder kiln, but when he saw that the pig was strong and reacted like this, he knew in his heart that it must be the thing of the elder kiln that couldn't escape.
"This bottle is priceless!" the pig exhaled.
"What if you have to give it an estimate?" Lin Xiao asked.
After being silent for a while, Pig Jianqiang said slowly: "It's worth 10,000 gold coins." ”
Hearing this offer, Lin Xiao couldn't help but skip a beat of his heart, he didn't expect this small net bottle to be priceless, the key is that in his space ring, there are still a lot of such things.
"If the master of the village is interested, I can give you this net bottle. Lin Xiao looked at the pig and said strongly.
A scorching light burst out in the pig's strong eyes, but it was fleeting, and he reluctantly handed the net bottle to Lin Xiao and said, "It's a pity, I can't afford this price at all, and I can't afford this treasure." ”
"It doesn't matter, you can pay in installments. Lin Xiao smiled slightly.
"Points...... What do you mean?" asked Pig Strong, blinking in bewilderment.
"It's how much you give me first, and give the rest to me as many times as you want at your convenience. Lin Xiao explained.
"Is that okay?" Hope rekindled in the pig's strong eyes.
"If other people can't do it, you can do it, because I can trust you. Lin Xiao looked directly into the pig's strong eyes and said affirmatively.
"Good, good, good, I must be worthy of your trust. The pig pursed his lips and nodded again and again, and his emotion was beyond words.
"The year before last, the hippopotamus people of Shating City obtained an ancient lacquer bowl from a ruin under the water, and after paying tribute to Lord Zuo Cheng, Lord Zuo Cheng was happy and actually exempted Shating City from paying tribute for three years. The value of the porcelain vase in this sister kiln is much more than that lacquer bowl, and if this thing is given away, my Moon Cliff City will definitely get a few years of respite. The pig's strong heart thought to himself.
