Pavilion No. 13.
The Young City Lord stood quietly at the entrance of the shop.
Beside him, there was no sign of last night's courtesan, but unexpectedly, Huang Yuan accompanied him. Behind them was still the tall, dark-faced, and robust General Zhang, over two meters tall.
After leaving the brothel, General Zhang also returned to his loyal and responsible demeanor, following the Young City Lord without a word.
"Mr. Qian, good evening."
The Young City Lord smiled at Su Huai.
They had dinner together yesterday and visited the brothel together. For the Young City Lord, Su Huai accepted his kindness, and the two could be considered friends.
Huang Yuan looked up at Su Huai and then quickly lowered her head again.
"Sorry, something delayed, and I kept the Young City Lord waiting for a long time."
"Ah~ It's okay! We just arrived."
"Since everyone is here, let's not stand outside. Shall we go in together?"
"That's a good idea."
"Please!"
"The Young City Lord goes first."
Today's Pavilion No. 13 is indeed different from last night.
All the counters in the hall have disappeared, and the back door that was closed yesterday has been opened, revealing a broad corridor hundreds of meters long.
A pure white, flawless fluorite chandelier hangs above the corridor, and on both sides are various glass display stands.
Every five meters, there is a waiter responsible for reception.
At this time, the sky is getting darker, and many of the city's dignitaries are wandering in the corridor.
Rich young ladies are in groups of three or five, and the young masters are mostly like the Young City Lord, with a female companion of decent appearance.
Linjiang City has stood for thousands of years, and the families and dignitaries within the city have long been set. Among the children of those big families, there are no shortage of smart people, but there will never be a lack of common sons who wait to die.
For Linjiang City, the monthly merchant fair at Pavilion No. 13 is a rare event in the city where you can see foreign items.
Therefore, the items sold at the fair are also very diverse.
From the three or four-grade spiritual materials and pills, to the slightly spiritual "divine weapons and sharp blades," to pure accessories, gems, calligraphy, and paintings, etc...
Everything is available.
There are many things, but Su Huai hasn't seen anything that catches his eye along the way.
On the contrary, the Young City Lord bought a slender and soft sword of the ninth grade at a high price, and General Zhang also bought a hairpin with the effect of nourishing the body.
It seems to be a gift specially prepared for his wife at home to prevent the matter of visiting the brothel yesterday from being exposed.
Not long after.
Su Huai also stopped in front of a display stand.
The display stand has a pair of silver-white hollow-out bracelets, made of Xian Jin, with a semi-transparent white space crystal inlaid in the middle, and the rest is decorated with sky-blue water crystal, which also has the effect of nourishing the body.
The display stand is engraved with product introduction.
'Frosty Autumn Xuan Water Bracelet': Storage Magic Tool
'Grade': Imperial Artifact
'Price': 3999 Imperial Coins
'Single Bracelet Storage Space': One Li in Length, Width, and Height
'Special Effect': Nourishing the body, subtly improving the quality, and enhancing the perception of the soul
'Additional Magical Array Effect': Protection: When the wearer is subjected to a strong attack, an Imperial-level shield with a duration of half an hour can be generated, and the magical array's cooldown time is one day.
'Introduction': Made of silver wave Xian Jin gold wire as the main body, inlaid with two top-grade Imperial-grade space crystals, supplemented by Frosty Autumn stones, made by Tao-grade (corresponding to the national boundary) blacksmith, the old man of Youlan.
Su Huai's evaluation is... top-level!
At least in this grade of Imperial Artifacts, the additional effects of this pair of bracelets are already very good.
It's just a bit of a merchant's suspicion, the price is too high.
When the Young City Lord saw Su Huai stop, he also came forward to take a look at the pair of bracelets and said:
"Frosty Autumn Xuan Water Bracelet?"
"Mr. Qian, this thing... because it comes from the hands of the old man of Youlan, the price is a bit high."
"Plus, the style of this pair of bracelets is obviously made for female monks, but there are not many female monks around who can easily take out so many Imperial Coins... So it has been accumulating in their chamber of commerce for a long time."
The closest female waiter to the display stand saw Su Huai stop, and with a smile, she came forward to explain.
"This gentleman is right."
"The Frosty Autumn Xuan Water Bracelet does have some flaws. First, the nourishing effect it adds is only effective for monks below the Imperial Realm."
"Secondly, because it is an early work of Master Youlan, its magical array strength is not very high, and it can only withstand an attack of the middle level of the Imperial Realm."
"For ordinary Imperial Realm strong people, it is just a storage tool with a bit of difference."
Su Huai looked up at the waiter, but he didn't expect that this waiter would be so honest and expose the flaws of his own products as soon as he came.
He blinked and asked:
"Since this thing has so many flaws, why do you still sell it so expensively?"
The waiter replied softly: "This price is set by Master Youlan himself..."
"The guest does not know"
"Master Youlan was born ordinary, just a young man from a blacksmith's family in a small town. When he was young, he had a green plum, and the two had a very good relationship and agreed to spend their lives together."
"But when Master Youlan was fourteen years old, he was spotted by a traveling blacksmith for his outstanding talent and was accepted as a disciple and taken away from his hometown."
"Master Youlan and the woman agreed that he would return after six years, that is, at the age of twenty, and marry that woman as his wife..."
"But for some unavoidable reasons, Master Youlan broke his promise and didn't return to his hometown until ten years after leaving."
"At that time, the girl couldn't wait for Master Youlan to return, day after day, year after year, and finally married a rich merchant in the small town under the persuasion of her family.
When the two met again, the woman was already pregnant.
After a brief meeting with the woman, Master Youlan sat in the heart of Xuan Shui Lake for three days and finally sighed and left in sorrow.
Decades later, the woman had become a skeleton, but Master Youlan had become a famous ninth-grade blacksmith.
Later, he made the Frosty Autumn Xuan Water Bracelet by the Xuan Shui Lake with all his strength."
"This is the first Imperial Artifact made by Master Youlan."
"It is also the only Imperial Artifact made for female monks, so even though there are some flaws, it is worth this price, what do you think, sir?"
Huang Yuan was sad on one side, as if moved by the regrettable love story of Master Youlan.
Su Huai's mouth twitched.
"The story is good, but the price is still too high."
The Young City Lord also curled his mouth.
"If I didn't know that Master Youlan had eighteen wives, I would have been almost moved by you."
The waiter seemed a bit embarrassed when she heard what the Young City Lord said.
But she still said softly:
"The positioning of this product... is very suitable as a gift for Taoist partners."
Huang Yuan blinked, subconsciously turned her head to look at the Young City Lord, and the Young City Lord smiled but did not speak.
Spend four thousand Imperial Coins to buy a gift for a brothel woman, his father is not so generous, if he is really so brain-dead, he might be hanged at the city gate tomorrow.
We all come out to play, how can you make me go bankrupt in one night?
Is it studded with diamonds, can you have some sense!
Huang Yuan came to her senses and immediately lowered her head.
But Su Huai reached out and tapped on the glass display stand a few times.
"I'll take it, wrap it up."
A boundary coin flew out from his fingers and was pressed on the stand.
The people who followed immediately widened their eyes.
The Young City Lord now sees Su Huai, and clearly sees three big characters on his face—
Suckers!
"Mr. Qian... this... is not worth it."
"As long as the person who receives it is happy, it's worth it."
"Mr. Qian is really... rich and generous. May I ask... who is the lucky person to receive this gift..."
"My wife at home."
The Young City Lord subconsciously turned his head to look at Captain Zhang.
General Zhang knew that the Young City Lord was comparing Mr. Qian with him, and his old face turned red, and he turned his head away from the Young City Lord.
After all, they are both in the Imperial Realm, they both secretly visited the brothel last night,
and they both bought gifts for their wives. The gift in front of him is a world apart from what he bought.
General Zhang's gaze wandered for a moment, as if he had figured something out, and he immediately glared back at the Young City Lord.
Look, what are you looking at!
I'm just working for your father, how much salary your father gives me, you as a son should have some sense, right?
