Chapter 861: Procurement
Wang Yong and his party came to the island, borrowed a few horses from the wolf cavalry barracks, and then galloped to the market where the residents outside the blue crystal city were temporarily stationed.
When they came to the temporary residence of the islanders, they saw a large number of thatched huts and tents neatly arranged in a vacant lot outside Haijing City, and the residents were not depressed and complained about the poor living conditions, because they knew that the beautiful city not far away would soon become their home.
The appearance of Wang Yong and others was warmly welcomed and warmly invited by these residents, Wang Yong and others got off the horse, nodded all the way and returned the salute with the residents who came to greet them, and walked straight in the direction of Haijing City.
Along the way, Wang Yong's neck was about to break because of the return gift, but the group was about to walk out of this temporary station, but they didn't see any market at all.
Coming to the edge of the temporary station, Wang Yong craned his neck to look left and right, and then scratched his head and muttered to himself, "Where is the market?"
At this time, Kevin and Reagan walked over, looking at the beautiful Sea Crystal City in front of them, Kevin asked with little stars in his eyes, "Ivan, what are you bringing us here for?
Wang Yong rolled his eyes and said, "I want to buy it with my own money." ”
Reagan frowned, secretly counted the gold coins in his money bag, and said with a worried face: "Aren't you going to eat?
Wang Yong shook his head and said, "No, but there will be in the future." ”
Regan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said secretly: "It's okay that it's not, otherwise I would have to go bankrupt today." ”
Seeing Wang Yong's appearance, he lightly pulled Wang Yong's sleeve and asked, "Boss, what are you looking for?"
Wang Yong whispered: "Didn't Noah say that there is a market here, there are a lot of seafood sellers, why didn't I see it? Could it be that it has moved?"
Qingling has never been here, and he is not familiar with this place. He shook his head and said, "I don't know, why don't I go and inquire?"
Wang Yong nodded, but he didn't let Qingling run errands, but turned around and asked the residents who came to him with some embarrassment: "Uh, I heard that there is a market here, and there are a lot of seafood sellers, I don't know if it's true?"
After the chaos, an old man stepped out of the crowd. waved his hand to everyone, and then came to Wang Yong and the others, and saluted very respectfully and said, "My lord, the market you are looking for is not here, but in the direction you came, if you don't mind, I am willing to show you the way." ”
Wang Yong was stunned when he heard this, and wondered: "Where are we coming? Why didn't I see it just now?"
The old man replied, "Oh, that's right. The market was too noisy, and the smell of the seafood was not very good, so Lord Rowan moved the market to the outskirts of this residential area in order not to disturb our lives. And my lord, the direction you came from is still some distance from the seat of the market, so you don't notice that it's normal. ”
Wang Yong suddenly realized, and then said to the old man: "Then you will help lead the way." The old man didn't even dare to say yes, and then raised his head to the other residents with some pride. Only then did he stride in front and take Wang Yong and his party to the market.
Kevin and Reagan also understood at this time, and Kevin said with a look of disdain: "Ivan." If you don't know, don't lead the way, isn't it a waste of time?"
Regan nodded and agreed, "That's it, I don't know what kind of big-tailed wolf you are pretending to be." ”
Wang Yong's face was red and white for a while by what Kevin and Reagan said, but there was no reason to refute it, so he decided in his heart that he must let these two guys who dare to despise him be ruthless for a while.
Without saying anything all the way, the old man took Wang Yong and his party to the market, as the old man said before, when there was still some distance from the market, Wang Yong heard the lively cries and the unique salty smell of seafood.
Thanks to the old man who led the way, Wang Yong and his party walked into the market with their noses covered, casually looking at the goods placed in the stalls on the ground on both sides of the road.
The market doesn't seem to be too big, but it sells everything from consumables, cloth, clothing, trinkets, homemade pickles and food.
A group of people walked for a while, found that there are a few wooden houses in the center of the market, there are many people in and out of a particularly good business, Wang Yong curiously led everyone to the wooden house, saw the signboard on it to know that it turned out that this is the coastal province in order to facilitate the island residents and set up a cheap daily necessities shop.
In order to avoid being watched by the same as just now, Wang Yong and others put on hats, and the brim of the hat was very low, which did not attract too much attention from others. Wang Yong and others took a turn in this cheap store and found that the prices of the goods sold in it were indeed cheaper than ordinary places, and the service attitude of the guys was also very good.
After Wang Yong and his party went around, they sold a total of two bags of fine noodles, a bag of beans, two whole sheep that had been slaughtered, and a large number of various vegetables, and spent a total of eleven gold coins, of course, Kevin and Regan paid the bill.
Kevin muttered in some pain, "Damn, what are you buying so many noodles and beans for? Can you finish eating?" Wang Yong pouted and didn't speak, but after asking the guy, he went directly to the place where the seafood was sold.
When they came to the stall specializing in selling seafood, Wang Yong and the others covered their noses and turned around, then found a place with relatively good air to catch their breath, and turned around and killed again.
For Wang Yong's approach, Kevin, a guy who has been frugal since he was a child, didn't feel anything, and it was a matter of course to choose the best and cheapest after shopping around, but Regan, a nobleman who rarely went to the street to buy things, was different, he felt that Wang Yong was too picky, and even a few copper coins were tied to those fishermen who looked weathered.
Wang Yong and Kevin came to a stall specializing in conch, scallops and other seafood, squatted on the ground, ignoring the muddy water on the seafood, and bargained with the merchants who seemed to be honest and loyal.
Wang Yong picked up a hi one, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, and said, "Boss, why do these conches smell a little bad?
The boss who was full of wind and frost and looked like a loyal working man weighed some scallops for other guests and said to Wang Yong: "The things I have here are all salvaged at noon, and they are absolutely fresh." With that, he went to greet another guest.
Wang Yong and Kevin planned to use various excuses to lower the price, but seeing that there were many people who came to buy things, the boss was almost too busy, and this boss didn't look like a businessman, and often gave an extra half a catty and a few taels, so Wang Yong and Kevin gave up their plans to bargain.
Taking advantage of the boss's free hand, Wang Yong hurriedly pulled the boss and pointed to all kinds of seafood on the stall, and finally Wang Yong simply patted his thigh and said: "Boss, you give a sincere price, if it is suitable, I will cover all your goods." (To be continued......)
