Section 63

Slave traders and their caravans were rare, but the inhabitants of Mondstadt were not as heat-tolerant as the Natarians or desert dwellers, and the crowds gathered around the unloading caravans for a few moments before they could not stand the scorching heat of the sun and dispersed.

Seeing that some people were leaving, and new people were attracted to the front, the crowd of onlookers could not disperse for a while.

Xu Yun found an air raid to drill into the crowd, it was really not a good choice to drill into the crowd in this hot summer, and before he could get into the center of the crowd, he was already sweating all over the heat, and the clothes he had just changed were also soaked with sweat, which was considered to be changed in vain.

The Natarians generally have the impression of being aggressive, advocating military conquest and flaunting their strength, with brutality and violence almost being the labels on their heads. Therefore, the Natan people are also frequent visitors to the gladiatorial arena, and the best gladiators are often born in the Nata field.

Of course, in the eyes of people in several other civilized countries, the people of Mondstadt are actually similar.

In particular, the self-proclaimed civilized, noble, and elegant people of Fontaine, in addition to having some good impressions of Liyue, have a sense of superiority over the city's people to the countryside.

Xu Yun finally squeezed to the front row against the heat emitted by the people around him and the smell of sweat rushing into his nose, and saw the 'goods' queuing down from the truck.

These inhabitants from the southern part of the continent all have their signature red hair, but the color of their hair varies slightly, some are fiery, some are bright, some are heavy, some are dark, and the skin is either light or light. What didn't change was the pair of red pupils.

Most of them are older women, young girls and children, but there are also some elderly people. At this time, the real young man was probably already shunted halfway and sent to the fighting arena on the side of Wind Dragon City, acting as fresh blood in future gladiatorial competitions.

I don't know why these slave traders would sell old people to a far northern land like Mondstadt.

Xu Yun is not interested in these slaves, he does have modern thinking and moral standards, but he can't save everyone he sees here, at most he spends money to buy one or a few slaves.

After all, even if he is now, he is rootless duckweed. Although he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing for the time being, but after all, he, the aristocratic young master in the eyes of others, is just an illusion that he hasn't pierced, and others can think whatever they like, he doesn't admit or deny it, after all, it will be much more convenient to have this layer of fake identity on his body.

The slave caravan crowded the road, which naturally caused the dissatisfaction of the stall merchants, but the desert mercenaries who escorted the caravan looked powerful, not only tall and large, but also covered with scars, serious and vicious expressions, even if they were dissatisfied in their hearts, they did not dare to argue with them.

Some people are afraid of being trampled on by the cargo team and pedestrians, so they rush to pack up the goods and make room for walking.

Xu Yun silently came behind a stall owner who was muttering his own dialect, watched him put away the cloth bag containing the goods, used a small broom to sweep the spilled beans from the stall into the dustpan, and poured the ashes into the cloth bag containing the beans.

'Whoever buys your beans will take home a handful of ashes with them.' Xu Yun thought to himself.

This kind of beans and grains sold in the open air are not a hygiene problem, and the residents of Mondstadt have long been accustomed to this kind of behavior.

Xu Yun pretended to be enthusiastic to help pack up his things, stepped forward, and moved the heaviest bag to the outside of the road for the stall owner.

"Young man, are you here to buy beans? My pili beans are all good things that Inazuma shipped. A new arrival this year. The stall owner enthusiastically introduced his products to Xu Yun, who helped move things.

The thin stall owner was slightly hunchbacked, and his already not tall figure made him even shorter, looking only half a head taller than Xu Yun.

"Bilible Bean?" Xu Yun asked curiously. He had been in Mondstadt for so long, but visiting the market was a recent pastime, and he was basically immersed in training classes, and his exposure to things was limited.

For Teyvat, most of it is still stuck in the memories of the game. Many details that are not in the game are slowly enriched with this time when I take on tasks with my companions and come into contact with various people and things.

This is the first time I have seen this bean.

"It's a thunderbolt bean, not a beep bean, don't make mistake about it. There is also a kind of curry bean over there in Sumeru, but it is not easy to store, so it was not shipped. Peanuts, peas, sand seeds, pine nuts. I still have dried melon, dried peach, dried mango, dried kiwi ...

While carrying the goods, the boss introduced the goods inside one by one. Some of the goods Xu Yun knows, and some are the first time they have seen them.

The thunderbolt beans were purple in color, looking a little like broad beans, and had lilac lines on the beans that resembled thunder and lightning. Generally, it is ground into powder and flushed, with some sugar, and then with ice cubes, when it is hot, a big sip will have the texture of thunder and lightning exploding in the mouth.

Xu Yun asked for one and put it in his mouth to try to chew, and he could feel some slight thunder elements jumping in his mouth, really like the boss said, there may indeed be a taste of thunder and lightning exploding in his mouth.

But it's hard to say whether it's comfortable or not. With the curiosity of the people of Mondstadt, this thing should have been sold out a long time ago, and it could not have been like this, with a large bag of pili beans barely sold.

Of course, it may also be related to the price.

"How about it, it's very exciting, young man, depending on your affection for helping me move things, I'll give you a nine-percent discount, thirty as long as you have five gold moralas."

Thirty beans can be sold for five gold morals, so you might as well sell them as potion materials.

But looking at the big bag of thunderbolt beans in the boss's hand, this thing doesn't look like something that can be associated with rare herbs.

It's okay to buy a few to try out, but if you really want to do something with it, forget it.

Xu Yun decided to go straight to the point and not go around in circles with this old man selling beans here.

"Boss, I remember that there was a merchant from Sumeru in the stall next to you? Why don't you see him today? ”

The boss moved his stall and began to rearrange the goods, and when he saw that the young man was not buying, his enthusiasm quickly cooled.

"You said that fat man with a strange smell, a few days ago a nobleman took a fancy to his goods and bought a lot of them in one go, which made that guy make a lot of money. That night, he went to the tavern to brag about how good his things were, and there were always nobles with discerning eyes who could see it, and invited each person to drink that night. ”

"But after drinking too much, the guy told a few truths, and this batch of goods was only one-tenth of the selling price when it was purchased. Coming and going, he worked hard, but he earned ten times the income. ”

The so-called master craftsmen he called were all students from the Akademiya who bought their works for the graduation exams that year. Anyway, after the exam, these works are useless, some people pay for them, and the students lack money, so they are naturally willing to sell them. ”

"If you tell me that he got rich overnight like this, and he is so swaggering, he will not end well. Doing business is still a long stream, and careful management is the right way. ”

"Is he sold out of all the goods?" Xu Yun was worried in his heart, Landis bought so many goods in one go, if the Sumeru merchant ran out of things and left for home, his clue would be broken.

"No, there are so many students in the Sumeru Akademiya, how can the goods he brought be sold out at once, I heard that there are still a small number of goods that have not been sold. No, I saw him come out to set up a stall yesterday. ”

"Heh~ People are stupid and have a lot of money, but not every day can bump into it, these days he hasn't even sold a single item, although the goods sold before are enough to return to the capital and make a small profit, but people's hearts are always greedy and insufficient. He also had the luxury of selling the rest at a high price. ”

I privately persuaded him to reduce the price, but he disagreed, and said what to maintain value, what not to seek the best but the most expensive, the price and the quality of the goods to match, inertial thinking and other incomprehensible nonsense. Probably used to dealing with the Akademiya, and he speaks strangely. ”

The black line on Xu Yun's forehead when he heard it was thanks to Landis that he didn't bump into you and said this, otherwise that expression would have been very exciting.

Anyway, there is no business to come to the door, the boss is happy to talk a few more words, and it seems that there is someone in front of the stall, and this opening is headless, and he keeps crackling and talking about all kinds of gossip.

"Then he should come to set up a stall today, right, why didn't you see him?" Xu Yun hurriedly interrupted the stall owner's talk.

"Hmmm... You kid is so interested in that fat man? Did you take a fancy to the goods in his hand? I'm telling you he's black-hearted..." The stall owner took a lot of Xu Yun up and down, only to see that this young man is not tall, his skin color is close to bronze, he obviously often basks in the sun, his palms and thumbs are not calloused, and he can't see how expensive a dress is, but it is not something that ordinary children can afford to wear.

I couldn't see the reason for it for a while.

Xu Yun was speechless, and directly reached into his arms, took out five golden morals and threw them on the stall.

"This generation of Dundun dried peaches, is five golden moralas enough?"

"Enough is enough, I'll weigh you a good pound and two, maybe there is still something to find." As soon as the boss saw the golden light, his whole thin cheeks were instantly full of wrinkles with a smile, he quickly picked up the golden mora, wiped it and bit it, and then carefully put it into the money bag on his chest like a thief, and dragged out a scale from the back of the stall to prepare to weigh the dried peach fruit sold by Xu Yun.

"No need to weigh it, you answered my question, and I bought your message before I did." Xu Yun regretted a little, he knew that money opened the way, how good it would be to throw him a golden mora directly at the beginning, and he could spend four less golden morals.

"Hey, hey~ I can't imagine that our old Sam will one day be able to make money by selling news." The boss nodded again and again, and grinned and tied the bag of dried peach fruits with a string to tie the mouth of the bag tightly.

Gotcha, another Sam. However, Xu Yun doesn't look like a Mondstadt man no matter how he looks at this boss, but judging from his gray black hair and some details on his clothes and accessories, he looks more like an Inazuma person.

"The guest gives money happily, and I can't hide it, that guy is said to have recently been obsessed with a dancer in the night, and he may have tossed too late last night, and he can't get out of bed today." As he spoke, this guy showed a slightly obscene smile, but when he saw the expression on the face of the young man in front of him, he decisively put away that smile again.

"The dancing girl of the night? Any idea what it's called? ”

"You have to check this yourself, the dancers in the tavern and dance hall, the maintenance people change back and forth, maybe sleep with this person today, and change it tomorrow, no one can say."

Xu Yun nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the bag of dried peach fruits had been put into the space backpack by him.

Seeing the big bag full of dozens of pounds of dried fruits disappear in an instant, the boss who called Sam was stunned in place, in Mondstadt, people with space equipment are big people, that kind of treasure is not something that can be owned by the rich and powerful. Only the true nobles and the higher rank knights of the Order have it.

A teenager with space equipment. It doesn't take too much thinking to know the identity of this teenager, which must be unspeakably expensive!

How could Old Sam ever come into contact with such a distinguished guest? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if you can get in a relationship...

When I wanted to say a few words to the distinguished guest, the young man's figure had already squeezed into the crowd and was out of sight.

"Ambro Tammy Carlo (please wait. ）”

Xu Yun was about to leave, but when he was walking through the crowd, he was grabbed by a pair of small hands on his left hand.

He looked back at the hands that had been holding him, and he was sure he didn't understand what the man was saying, but he was sure he understood what it meant. The voice spoke not the lingua franca of the continent or the Monde, but a language that was close to the gods.

Language that can be used to project meaning directly in your mind.

The hands are delicate and delicate, and the skin is as moist and delicate as honey, with an amber yellow tinge. At the wrists of these small hands, wooden shackles are worn, and chains as thick as the index finger are strung together.

There was a noise in the crowd, and Xu Yun clearly felt that the crowd was surging towards him, and there were a few shouts from time to time.

After a while, the owner of the little hand finally broke free from the restraints, squeezed through the crowd, and was revealed in front of Xu Yun.

This is a slave girl from Nata, who has come from afar.
