Chapter 27: The Night Market

Furyk reached out and wiped the fine sweat from his head, and stood in front of the stage with an embarrassed expression.

This pair of twin swords had been backlogged in the warehouse for a long time, and I thought that at this auction, someone would want to buy it at a low price of 30 gold coins, but the reaction from the audience was so cold.

What he didn't know was that the previous few highly competitive auction items had almost consumed all the apprentice-level mages in the field, and the apprentice-level mages were unwilling to spend money on such useless decorations.

Therefore, even if there are apprentice-level mages who are interested in buying, most of their pockets are already empty.

Coupled with the fact that these two swords were in good shape, they were not luxurious, and the nobles were not interested in buying them as decorations, which led to them falling into a situation where they were about to be sold off.

Thirty gold coins.

Sean sat in his chair, his heart gradually tangled.

If this pair of twin swords didn't have that shortcoming, they would be worth at least more than two hundred gold coins, and now he can buy them for 30 gold coins, which has to be said to be quite cost-effective.

Not to mention that he happened to get a ring with a rune enchanted with "Apprentice-level Spell - Potential Stimulation", if it was paired with this pair of dual swords, it would not be completely useless.

"Thirty gold coins!"

If someone competes, just give up.

Thinking so, Sean gritted his teeth and directly raised the sign and shouted the reserve price.

The people around him collectively looked at him.

Dressed in a mage robe, with a thin body, and undisguised mana fluctuations, it is obvious that this is a pure apprentice-level mage, but he doesn't know what crazy his brain is pumping, and he actually spent the unjust money of 30 gold coins.

Fryk was instantly pleasantly surprised when he saw someone bidding, as if he was afraid that Sean would regret it, and quickly struck the auction hammer three times to complete the deal.

In fact, Sean could have waited until after the auction to ask Frick for the price, maybe it could be cheaper.

But in order to avoid long nights and dreams, he still planned to buy it on the spot.

These swords are not useless, each weapon will have its own use, the price of thirty gold coins is almost extremely low, and it may not be long before someone is willing to pay gold coins to get it.

For Sean, it was only a little more than a week to earn back thirty gold coins, and it would not be a loss to pay this price to obtain this pair of long swords, even if it was used to study the alchemy skills above!

The auction continued, but Sean, who did not have a few gold coins in his pocket, already had the idea of leaving, and after getting the ring and the black and white sword, Sean walked out of the gate without a hitch.

It was completely dark outside, but the ground was still bright under the lights.

The auction has been going on for more than two hours, and now it's past nine o'clock in the evening, and Sean plans to take a good look at the night market and feel the lively atmosphere.

With the ring on and the black and white swords hanging behind his back, Sean walked briskly through the stalls.

The flow of people has decreased a lot, but there are still all kinds of people shuttling through the night market.

The liveliest part of the area is the food stalls, most of which sell snacks and late-night snacks, and the aroma of various foods is mixed together, so that Sean can't help but arouse the desire to enjoy the food.

Apprentice and apprentice occupations still need to eat, and only after reaching the formal level can they completely get rid of the restrictions of food and be truly extraordinary.

But in fact, most professionals above the formal level will not completely give up their appetites, but not to survive, but to see it completely as a kind of entertainment.

In addition to food stalls, there are also stalls that sell groceries, such as various handicrafts, clothing and decorations, etc., which are never lacking in the city of Faerun.

In a sense, magical plants such as rye provided the prerequisites for the birth of large cities, and a large number of people were liberated from agricultural labor and actively engaged in commerce, service and other industries, which promoted economic prosperity.

Because the degree of scientific and technological development is very low, there are no large-scale factories in the Faren Continent, and there are still many small workshops in the city, but the population with labor force is too much, and the market demand has not expanded, which has led to serious involution in all walks of life, and those who can survive are the elites of the elite.

Sean walked around the stalls and wasn't very interested in these things.

Many crafts are aimed at civilians and don't appeal much to a profession like Sean.

For example, a wood carving stall that Sean passed by before was full of wood carvings of various races, including but not limited to females or males of elves, orcs and other races......

While these wood-carved figures look beautiful, for most people like Sean, it's better to buy a real elf or orc slave. Although the price is a little more expensive, it is much better than wood carving, which can only be used for viewing.

Dressed in black mage robes, Sean continued to move forward, observing the food stalls along the way.

Pedestrians nearby dodged and avoided each other, for fear of accidentally colliding with the professional and causing trouble for themselves.

In Sean's view, the purpose of being a professional is to live a human life, to do what you want to do, to live the life you want, and not to live like a slave in this world.

Eat as much as you want, play as much as you want, as long as it doesn't affect the big goal, there's nothing wrong with spending some time to make yourself happy, and he doesn't want to live the life of an ascetic.

In front of a burrito stand, Sean stopped.

It's been a month since she arrived in Ryan City, and Sean hasn't tasted this food yet, so it's time to try it today.

Thinking so, he casually threw a silver coin on the stall.

"Serve all kinds of burritos...... Forget about the cheap ones, is one silver coin enough? ”

"Many! And much more! There are 80 copper coins in total, please wait a minute, I will find you the money right away. ”

The stall owner was an old man who looked quite old, his face was wrinkled, and his clothes looked shabby and shabby because he didn't know how many times they had been sewn up.

Beside him stood a little girl, also dressed plainly, glancing at Sean with timid eyes, her face white and pure, looking very cute.

When the old man heard Sean's words, he looked down and rummaged through the boxes under the stall for silver-plated and copper coins, and like other ordinary people, he was very respectful to Sean.

"It's too much trouble to need."

Sean frowned and spoke to stop the old man's movements.
