Chapter 117: Construction
North, the capital of the desert, the city of Mingguang.
Thanks to the stationing of Nandifu, a large number of evil spirits near Mingguang City have been eliminated, and there are also special reincarnation envoys patrolling the route from the north to Mingguang City, so during this time, the development of Mingguang City can be said to have changed day by day.
The dirt roads that used to be on the streets have disappeared and have been replaced by some more beautiful stone pavements, which greatly enhances the ornamental experience, and also attracts countless tourists to Mingguang City to take pictures.
Every day, there are several vendors selling desert clothes at the entrance gate of Mingguang City, who have been looking for a place since dawn, and then set up their goods, waiting for those curious tourists to come in, and then sell them a more "suitable" price.
However, most tourists will still choose to buy after entering the city, and there are still relatively few people who want to buy clothes when they first enter the city.
However, they still waited for the first guests of the day, it was a sightseeing group, and they knew that the other party was very rich just by seeing it once, and the reason was that they did not go through the gate, but came out of the portal set up in the city center of Mingguang City not far from the gate.
The vendors operating here have long figured out the difference in identity of coming here for sightseeing, ordinary people take a train or sightseeing car to enter through the gate, and some people with status and money will choose to pay or walk through the portal set up by Nandi Mansion to reach here directly.
This time, there were eight people who came out of the portal, and except for the guide who walked in the front and wore the uniform of the red Xianglin tour group, everyone behind them was a fat sheep in the eyes of these vendors.
As long as you can sell two or three pieces, no, one, one is enough.
The hawkers had already begun to rub their hearts together, and even worse, they moved their stalls in the direction of the portal, and then prepared to step forward and shout twice.
Just as they were expecting these people to go this way, this group of people suddenly turned away and went in the opposite direction to them.
The peddlers sighed and sat back down, and the people who were about to shout sat back down.
However, the two people who walked out from behind those sightseeing groups walked straight here.
These two people, one in his forties, had a mustache, short hair, a thin face, and the whole person was about 1.7 meters tall, and they wore clothes made of good materials unique to southern cities.
The other person looked relatively young, in his early twenties, the eyebrows on his eyes were almost connected into a line, short black hair, and a height of more than 1.6 meters.
But what caught the hawker's eye the most was the clothes the young man was wearing.
He was wearing a long black sleeve with a big hole in his chest, and he was holding a tattered black robe in his hand, and he looked like he was coming to buy clothes.
A large number of vendors swarmed up and surrounded the two, introducing each other to the local clothes, and constantly spitting out golden words to them, telling them how popular the local clothes were in the desert.
Seeing this, the young man just smiled slightly, took a few steps back, smiled and said to the older man next to him:
"Uncle Qiang, come on, I'm not very good at this."
The man known as Uncle Qiang looked at him, smiled in return, and then stepped forward alone, stretched out his hand, took all the peddlers together, and spoke with his head touching his head:
"I need more than 200 pieces of our local clothes, if the texture is not bad, and the material is okay, I can consider getting more."
As soon as they heard more than two hundred pieces, the eyes of these vendors were about to glow, and they hurriedly took out a few particularly representative desert clothes from their stalls, or pulled them out, or compared them on themselves, Uncle Qiang looked at them and chose a few more suitable types.
Compared with his body, it was still good, so Uncle Qiang stretched out his hand and shouted loudly:
"Xiaoyu, how about you try these pieces and see how about it?"
After Wang Yu heard it, he immediately stepped forward, and in Uncle Qiang's selection, Wang Yu put on a dress that looked good, the whole dress was dark blue, and Wang Yu did not shirk it, and wore it directly on his body.
"Give him another hat."
At Uncle Qiang's request, one of the vendors chose a hat for Wang Yu.
Wang Yu looked at himself in front of the mirror next to the vendor, and after putting on his hat, he seemed to blend in with the local area, and couldn't help but smile.
Uncle Qiang looked at Wang Yu's appearance on the side, nodded, and then gathered the vendors together and discussed the price.
Ten minutes passed, Wang Yu and Uncle Qiang carried a bag of things to each other and left the door.
Only the satisfied hawkers remained.
The two turned into a sparsely populated alley, and Wang Yu packed all his clothes into the ring space without anyone noticing.
"Uncle Qiang, we don't need to buy so much, besides, your bargaining price is so low, why did you raise it a little in the end."
Wang Yu kept fiddling with his clothes and asked his own questions.
Looking at it from the side just now, Uncle Qiang pushed the price to a very low price, but raised it again.
Uncle Qiang just smiled faintly, put on a set of clothes for himself, and explained while adapting to the clothes:
"Xiaoyu, these hawkers, if they can't make money, they have some small-minded people, they will use some bad eyes on their clothes, for example, a hole or something."
"More than two hundred pieces are not much, just buy them back and give everyone a sample, and then we will change it according to this mold ourselves, or make our own clothes, the main thing is to buy a new gadget for those young people, besides, although I didn't save much money in the underground heaven a few years ago, I can still afford to buy some of these cheap clothes."
After Wang Yu heard it, he didn't say anything, just nodded and said, in fact, he was going to pay just now, because the total added up was only more than a hundred gold coins, but Uncle Qiang still insisted on paying by himself, so he didn't stop him.
"Hmm...... Uncle Qiang, shall we go and see the stone and wood now? Or do you want to go around here again? ”
Wang Yu was afraid that Uncle Qiang came here for the first time, and deliberately said that he could go around here more.
Uncle Qiang looked up at the sky, touched his beard with his hand, calculated in his heart, and said slowly:
"Xiaoyu, I won't turn around today, after we determine the materials, we will go back today to build some major buildings, this thing can't be delayed, there is another end to set up the portal, it will also take a lot of time, and in the future, when we have time, it is not too late for us to turn around slowly, besides, the day after tomorrow, you will not end the holiday, during this time, you can use your ability more, otherwise it will be too late when you leave."
Wang Yu just smiled after hearing this, his impression of these people in the underground heaven is getting better and better, they do things when they should do things, and play when they should play, this aspect is very clear, so there is no need to let him arrange it again.
These should be Chen Chao's ideas......
"Let's go, Uncle Qiang, let's inquire where the nearby material market is."
"Let's go."
After the two finished discussing, they immediately turned out of the alley.
In Mingguang Castle, as soon as the two inquired, they came to a two-story building on the east side of the city, which was composed of light white as a whole, and a unique spire was installed on the top roof.
This is the largest material supplier in this area, Wang Yu looked at the signboard, which said Mingguang Building Materials.
Just as the two of them were about to walk in, a person who looked like a waiter came out of it, and then two well-dressed men walked out behind them.
After the two men shook hands, one of them left with a smile.
Then another man saw the two men standing in the doorway, and said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, two guests, I'm the boss here, I have some materials inside, let's take a look inside, we're going to change a signboard now, don't stand outside for the time being."
Wang Yu nodded to Uncle Qiang, and then walked in.
After some time, the two came out of the store and followed the owner to the backyard, picking out the right materials.
Uncle Qiang has a lot of experience in this area, and Wang Yu is watching and listening from the sidelines.
When they went back, Wang Yu found that the original signboard had been replaced with "Xianglin Material Line".
When I saw these words, I couldn't help but have a question in my heart.
When did Xianglin's business become so big?
Although I thought about it in my heart, I haven't asked yet, now it's important to get down to business, and I'll slowly see how far Xianglin has developed when it's another day.
After confirming the materials, Uncle Qiang returned to Beidi Mansion with Wang Yu.
……
Inside the Northland Prefecture, there is smoke and noise everywhere.
The continuous clanging sound and the sound of various tools moving stones, one by one, the dilapidated buildings are gradually becoming beautiful under the labor of this group of people.
Wang Yu and Uncle Qiang walked through the corridor, came to the central platform, took out all the materials through the ring space, and then came to the craftsman non-stop, there was a group of people here who were knocking on the stones in their hands, those were selected from the ruins, the materials were relatively good, and they decided to polish these materials again.
Uncle Qiang asked the shirtless craftsman at the front, "What's the matter, Lao Tian, the matter of the portal." ”
Lao Tian wiped his sweat with the towel around his neck, then stopped what he was doing, raised his thumb, and replied happily:
"Then don't you need to say, of course it's built, it's almost time to adjust the position, this is the repairer, it will run automatically after you release a little spiritual power, you know the rest of the operation, I don't need to say more, I'll leave it to you."
After hearing the answer, Uncle Qiang nodded with satisfaction, and then took a boxy device that looked a little cracked from Lao Tian's hand, and led Wang Yu through the blue bridge, walked over the River Styx, and came to the portals that had failed.
"The trip I went to just now, I have memorized the location of Mingguang City, and the next repair will be left to me, Xiaoyu, can you go to Mingguang City first and wait for me to see if the location I chose is right."
Wang Yu immediately agreed, he immediately took out a temporary teleportation device, and came directly to Mingguang City.
When Wang Yu, who was wearing local clothes, first came out, he attracted the attention of some people, but soon Wang Yu left the place, found a decent place, sat down, and took out the watch from the ring space.
It was ten o'clock in the morning, and looking at the people who kept coming out of the portal, Wang Yu waited patiently.
Finally, when it was close to half past eleven, Wang Yu saw a familiar figure, and Uncle Qiang successfully came out of the portal.
This means that the passage between Northland and the outside world has been opened.
