Zhao Liang and the others took the electric eel into the mermaid country, only to see that the city was very prosperous and lively, and there were many buildings scattered in the canyon, including bamboo shoots, columns, corals, and many strange shapes.
These buildings are all extremely tall, the shortest ones are thirty or forty zhang, and the tallest is probably more than a hundred zhang high, after all, there is a huge buoyancy support on the bottom of the sea, and these residents can also go up and down freely.
Zhao Liang looked at it and said in amazement, "This place is really different from the buildings of our Qi Kingdom, how can the house be like this?"
"Of course, this is the bottom of the sea, and if it had been built like this on six grounds, the house would have collapsed a long time ago. Zhao Qian was unimpressed by Zhao Liang's fuss.
Zhao Liang nodded yes, "Well, what Senior Sister said is also true, if you build such a high house on the ground, you won't have to be tired to death when you go to the top." ”
The two of them asked a dolphin next to them where the inn was, and the dolphin pointed to the largest hexagonal building and said, "It's there, it's the Six Star Pavilion, and there are all kinds of inns." ”
After the two thanked them, they asked the electric eel spirit to come over, and the two of them rode on the electric eel spirit and walked out to the Six Star Pavilion.
When they arrived at the door of the Six Star Pavilion, an old turtle came over and said with a blowing face, "How many guests, what kind of guest rooms do you want to stay in?"
"There are two of us, one more, one mount. What kind of guest rooms are here?" asked Zhao Liang.
The old turtle fluently quoted, "One coral coin a day for a regular room, five coral coins a day for a medium room, ten coral coins a day for a superior room, twenty coral coins a day for a deluxe room, and a hundred coral coins a day for a top room, and reservations are also required." ”
"Coral coins?" Zhao Liang showed a puzzled expression, he turned around and asked Zhao Qian, "Senior sister, do you have coral coins?"
"I'll have Coral! I've got some silver taels. Zhao Qian spread her hands and said with a wry smile.
Zhao Liang turned back to the old turtle and said, "We don't have coral coins, do you collect money here?"
When the old turtle saw that the two of them did not have coral coins, his face immediately became frosty, and he said with a straight face, "Don't accept the silver! ”
"Where are you going to exchange the silver?" Zhao Liang asked.
The old turtle replied ignorantly, "Won't you find someone to ask?"
Zhao Qian was on the side, seeing that the dead turtle was so snobbish, she said angrily, "Aren't you human?"
"I'm not human, I'm a turtle!" said the turtle with a glare.
Zhao Qian was angry, "You?!"
Zhao Liang pulled Zhao Qian and said, "Senior sister, don't pay attention to him, let's go!"
When Zhao Qian left, she also sprayed the old turtle, "Snobbish, I'm phew!"
"I'm flashing, two poor ghosts!" the old turtle was as light as a swallow, and his movements were quick, and he dodged it at once.
The two of them went to the street to find a few Sea Clan residents, and only then did they inquire clearly, the place where they could exchange huàn silver and trade items was called Wanfang Pavilion.
The two of them followed the instructions of others and came to a tree-like building, which was like a huge coral tree, and the gate was more than ten zhang high.
The plaque at the entrance of the gate is carved with three big characters of flowing jade "Wanfang Pavilion".
When the two of them arrived inside, they came to a shop on the 27th floor, which had a very small face.
The two walked in, the boss was a grouper, and when he saw the business, he hurriedly came over and asked, "Two guest officers, but do you want to exchange huàn silver taels?"
Zhao Liang said, "Yes, we have some silver here, and we want to exchange it for coral coins, but I don't know how to exchange it." ”
"Ten taels of silver for a coral coin. The boss said politely.
Hearing this ratio, Zhao Liang and Zhao Qian were both taken aback.
"Ah, how can silver be so cheap? ”
The boss patiently explained to the two, "Exaggerated, guest officer, we don't have any mines under the sea, for you humans, silver is very scarce, for us sea tribes, silver mines can be dug everywhere, and silver is not worth anything at all." ”
"Isn't there coral everywhere on the bottom of your sea, and aren't coral coins worthless?" Zhao Qian asked rhetorically.
The boss continued, "That's because you don't know, Coral Coins can only be used by the Four Great Dragon Palaces, do you think that Coral Coins can be made by digging a random coral? No one dares to mint coins privately, not even the royal families in the Sea Clan, unless they want to be exterminated." ”
Zhao Liangcai suddenly realized, "I see." Senior sister, how much silver do you have?"
"I'm only more than thirty taels here, right, what about you?"
Zhao Qian took out the storage bag and turned it upside down.
Zhao Liang scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I'm afraid I only have a dozen taels here." ”
"Ah, so little, you don't want to take it out, do you? Zhao Qian said with some suspicion.
Zhao Liang shouted wronged, "Senior sister, I was wronged, I really only have so much." ”
"Okay, let's take it all out. Zhao Qian said helplessly.
The two of them took out all the silver and counted it, and there were only forty-eight taels and seven coins.
The boss took the money and said, "Okay, it's the first time I've opened today, so I'll give you five Coin for the first time." ”
The two of them reluctantly took the five coral coins and smiled wryly.
Five coral coins, not even a medium-sized room, the two of them suddenly felt that they were really poor.
