Chapter 237: 236. Bazaar
Chapter 237 236. Bazaar
It is not difficult to find out the location of the market in Hailansa City, especially when the inquirer is a knight leading a horse, whether it is a commoner or a businessman, they will stop what they are doing and answer him patiently. Not too big, the market is in a small square, and there are some small shops on both sides of the noisy street.
Walking on the crowded street while leading the horse, Suerdak was worried that the horse would kick the pedestrians behind him, so he kept reassuring the horse all the way.
At the edge of the market, Suerdak found a food stall.
Soft and rotten mutton is boiled in the big pot, and baked wheat cakes are hung in the stove beside it. You only need fifteen copper coins to buy a bowl of sauce-colored and fragrant broth. The lamb is thrown into a soup bowl and sprinkled with a sprig of coriander.
If you need toasted oatmeal, you need to add two additional copper plates, and the boss will press a bowl-sized toasted oatmeal on top of the soup bowl.
The eating method of this kind of snack is a bit like mutton steamed buns. Break the cake into several pieces and dip it in the soup to eat.
Suldak brought two toasted wheat cakes himself, so he just asked for a bowl of mutton soup. The food stall owner asked him to tie the horse to the post next to him, so Suldak settled for a late breakfast.
Suldak originally wanted to sell the salamander meat in the market, but the market was very crowded. He led his horse around the market, but he couldn't find a place for him to set up a stall.
When he came to the area where fresh meat and fish were sold in the bazaar, Suerdak saw that besides the stalls of beef, mutton, pork and fresh river fish, the most popular one was actually the meat stall of gray rock iguana, a two-foot The ten-pound gray rock iguana actually sells for around 8 silver coins.
It seems that the price of limestone iguanas in Hailansa City is much higher than that in Dares City.
Calculated in this way, the total value of the thirty-seven gray rock iguanas captured by the Wall Village Lizard Hunting Group in the Pagros Mountains will probably not exceed 3 gold coins.
Stopping in front of the gray rock iguana stall, the butcher in the stall was beheading the gray rock iguana's head with a single knife, and using a sharp boning knife to cut a hole in the gray rock iguana's white abdomen, and pulled out all the internal organs. Pour it into the trash can, tear off the iguana skin on the neck with your hands, and pull it hard, the whole thin gray skin will be torn off, revealing the crystal clear lizard meat inside, the whole process will not take more than ten seconds.
The stall owner habitually landed on the badge on Suldak's chest at first. He was probably used to seeing nobles and knights. The stall owner asked calmly, "Master Knight, what do you need?"
"Does this have salamander meat?" Suldak asked calmly.
The stall owner's expression was slightly condensed, worried that Suldak was here to find fault, so he replied honestly: "Sorry, Sir Knight, I don't have that kind of high-end ingredients here."
"Then where can I buy it?" Suldak asked seriously.
Seeing Suldak's sincere expression, the stall owner made sure that he was not here to cause trouble, so he walked out of the stall, stood enthusiastically beside Suldak, pointed to the road ahead, and said to Suldak Ke said: "You can go to the Warcraft material store to try your luck. After leaving the market, go straight along this road. There are many magic shops near Hailansa Junior Magic Academy."
Gu Bo Laima was very disgusted with the **** smell on the stall owner. He kept shaking his head and backed away, snorting, and the crowd behind him backed up again and again.
Suldak quickly thanked the stall owner, and seeing that the market was congested because of himself, he prepared to take Gubo away.
A man in gorgeous clothes suddenly came up to him. Seeing that he didn't wear a noble badge on his chest, he shouldn't be a nobleman.
The body is not very strong, and it is probably not a knight.
The man said to Surdak kindly: "Do you want to buy salamander meat?"
Sulda clapped Gu Bolaima and nodded.
The man looked familiar, and said to Suldak: "That's a good thing. If you eat it regularly, it can increase the body's resistance to the fire element and increase your strength, but this thing is very difficult in Hailansa. If you buy it, it is estimated that the World of Warcraft store will not often have it, and even if it does, it will be sent to the homes of several Lord Earls in the city."
Seeing that he intended to have a conversation, Suldak tentatively asked, "Who are you?"
The man straightened the silk shirt on his body, with two small oily beards and shrewdness all over his body, he said proudly: "I am the buyer of the Earl Christie's house, and I usually buy all kinds of goods for the Earl's house. Living supplies."
Originally, after the man expected to say the name of Earl Christie, Suldak heard a few words of praise.
But Suldak is obviously not good at this kind of communication, and he didn't notice the keyword 'Earl Christie'. He only heard that he was a purchaser from a certain earl's mansion, and thought he probably knew about salamander meat. Information, eyes lit up, and asked casually: "Then do you know how much a pound of salamander meat is? Sorry, I don't know much about these..."
The expression on the man's face was a bit down. Surdak didn't expect that instead of complimenting, he asked a question instead.
However, he then answered Suldak's question: "If it is fresh salamander meat, the price is about 5 silver coins, and the tail may be more expensive, but it will not exceed 7 silver coins per pound. After all, there are only a few nobles in Lansa City who can afford salamander meat, and Earl Christie is one of them..."
The market road is a bit narrow, and Suerdak stopped here with his horse, which has already caused a traffic jam.
Seeing more and more people gathering behind, Suldak planned to leave quickly, so he said "thank you" to the man who purchased from the noble mansion, and then led the horse and left quickly.
After the road was cleared, a crowd of people rushed up all of a sudden, squeezing the purchaser until he kept shaking.
"Hey... Hey, I don't know which new knight under the earl's command, but he just left!" The man stood in the crowd, looked at Suldak and muttered helplessly, obviously saying to him Walk away expressing great dissatisfaction.
Watching Gu Bolaima's **** disappearing into the crowds of the market, he could only turn around resentfully.
Instead, the stall owner who sold gray rock iguanas came up to him with a charming smile on his face, and said flatteringly to the man: "Master Hasa, today's gray rock iguanas are very fat, do you want to buy two more..."
…
Not long after, Suldak walked out of a leather shop.
The owner of the leather shop personally sent Suerdak to the door. Seeing the back of Suerdak leading the horse away, he was still regretful: "This knight is not willing to sell such a good piece of salamander leather. It's just that Let the shop handle it on their behalf. It seems that they want to make a set of salamander leather armor. There is no way to get this order. There are too few knights in Hailansa City who can afford to make monster leather armor...'
…
The main reason why Suldak came to this leather shop was to separate the leather and fresh meat of the salamander tail. Originally, the tail was handed over to Wall Village, but the old village chief kicked the ball back In the end, Suldak still had to find a leather shop to peel off the piece of leather from the lizard's tail.
The owner of the leather shop wanted to buy Suldak's salamander skin, but he was very stingy and refused to give a price that satisfied Suldak. In the end, Suldak had to pay for the cooked leather , ask this shop to handle salamander leather on your behalf.
But he has no plans to make another set of salamander leather armor for the time being...
