Chapter 4 Water and Zhuzhihua
"Dawn is like blue silk and twilight turns into snow... Years of lovesickness have finally turned into a dream..."
The actors on the stage sang softly, and the makeup on the face seemed to have weeping tears, which made people feel sad. With the final bell tolling, the play ended here.
People lamented the tragedy of the characters in the play, and then they were awakened by the lighted up lights. When they woke up from the immersion of the play, they felt like a dream.
After leaving the theater, it was already very late. There were fewer pedestrians on the street, but only a little less. There were still many shops open. The roar of fireworks in the world is coming.
"I still fell asleep in the second half." Ye Ling rubbed his eyes and walked behind with Loren Hill's sleeve.
In the theater, she started out in good spirits, but then she began to feel sleepy, and then fell asleep on Loren Hill's lap, and was not called by the girl until the end.
"Are those two people together at the end?" Eidolon asked Roland Hill.
"No, it's a tragedy."
"Well, I didn't watch it anyway, hehe." Ye Ling smiled smugly.
"I spend money and read heart-wrenching stories and become a fool."
"I feel like you've scolded a lot of people for what you said." Roland Hill touched the little guy's head, and the hair on it was very soft.
"Haha~ I'm very smart."
The two returned to the hotel, ate something, and then fell asleep.
A quiet night passed.
The next day, the Harbour Fair.
"Come, come, the finest black pearls from the West Sea, Chen Yuexiang from the country of red berries, and snow cliff wines from the extreme west, you can find everything~"
"The nourishing potion that Emenas's students are using, it will let you practice seven steps faster."
"The dyed red spinning of the Canghong Empire is limited, and each person is limited to one piece."
"Ben Leiguo of Nagarjuna's Blood Exhaustion Sect, come here who knows how to do it."
As soon as Roland Hill walked into the harbour's market, his ears were drowned out by the various shouts, and mixed smells came from the tip of his nose, some of which were spices, some of the medicinal incense in the goods for repelling insects, and some of The smell of sweat on pedestrians, and the fishy smell unique to the seaside.
She lightly covered her cheeks with her hands, glanced at the market, and walked inside step by step. Behind the girl, there were two other sergeants carrying boxes, which contained tightly arranged potions.
"Just put it here, thank you for your hard work." After coming to an open space, Roland Hill asked the two to put it down.
"It's okay, I'm willing to serve you." The two clasped their fists and saluted, then left.
Before he came, Roland Hill paid the two of them a potion as a reward. This statement came from the bottom of his heart. In the fleet, Roland Hill had a very good reputation. After all, such an approachable big man, But it is very rare. Occasionally, when someone asks a question about practice, Roland Hill will answer patiently.
After scanning the market with her senses, Roland Hill found that the person she was waiting for hadn't come yet, so she was not in a hurry. She stood here and waited, just in time to see the colorful products in the market.
Although she is also a big figure in the Western Continent, some gadgets in the market are still fresh to her, and she has never seen them before.
Although some things were made in the Western Continent, they were not very popular in the Empire and Crancia. Instead, they came to the East and were very popular, such as some special spices, bright and colorful bird feathers, etc.
Of course, there are also some things that are popular in the East and the West, but on the other hand, because of the inconvenience of transportation, they are very lacking, such as the popular phonograph boxes in the Western Continent, the bright red fabrics of the Empire, the special fruits of the Eastern Dynasty, and porcelain. tea set etc.
After standing for a while, Roland Hill saw that the other party hadn't come yet, so he simply sat on the box with his feet hanging in the air, swaying gently with his skirt.
...
Just when Roland Hill thought that those people were not coming, he finally heard the sound of approaching footsteps.
The leader of the team I saw yesterday turned his eyes and searched everywhere, and his companions behind him were also helping to find it.
"I'm sorry, Brother Xuemo, because I've been delayed for so long." The woman I saw yesterday apologized in a low voice.
"Don't talk about it, hurry up and have a look, I hope that eldest lady is still waiting for us."
It was noon at this time, and many people in the market began to rest and prepare for a meal, and the voices of selling were also reduced.
"Have you found it? Let me tell you in advance. We will start counting the time when we come out of this line. Even if you don't reach a deal, we will not refund the money." remind.
"Yes, we know." After speaking, the people separated again, ready to search.
Fortunately, Roland Hill saw a few people wave their hands in advance, which made them relieved.
"I'm sorry, Miss, I've troubled you for waiting so long." The team leader apologized.
"Actually, we also want to come earlier, and we don't want to delay something that happened in the middle." The woman in the back stepped forward and added.
"It's okay, just come." Roland Hill easily jumped off the big box and came to several people.
"Do you want to inspect the goods?"
"Yes, please open the box too."
"Here's the key, here it is."
Although the girl could push the heavy box lid off herself, she always felt that it would not give people too much visual impact, so she didn't do it herself.
"Thank you." After that, the team leader took the key, opened the small lock on the box, and then pulled it open.
The thick wooden box revealed the emerald-colored potions neatly arranged inside.
There are 10 of these medicines in a row, 10 rows of a large grid, two large grids on one layer, that is, 200, a total of six layers, or 1,200, and there are soft cloths between the layers to prevent collisions.
Looking at these potions each placed in the round-hole wooden frame, several people's eyes lit up. Although they have not been checked, the neat arrangement and the consistent and profound color give people a professional feeling. visual impact.
"Please also ask the master to help with the inspection." His fingers stroked the corks tightly packed on the potions, and the team leader gave up his position and let the appraiser behind him step forward.
"Let the old man take a look."
The old man took out a magnifying glass from his pocket, then took out a potion, carefully observed it, shook it, then opened the cork again and took a sniff.
"The color is pure, the magic is full, and the vitality is full of vitality..." He said one word, to evaluate, and then poured out a little bit, wiped it on his arm, and closed his eyes to experience it carefully.
"How is it, Master." A few people on the side asked curiously.
"Very good, very good, very good." He said several good words in a row.
"For such a high-quality potion, almost this tube should be of the highest quality at the golden level, and if this box is all at this level, it will be invaluable."
Even the well-informed appraiser sighed with emotion, looking at the girl standing aside with a scrutiny, guessing who the other party was, and being able to come up with so many high-level potions.
Even Wanziqianhonggu, which is famous for alchemy and medicine, suddenly took out such a batch of goods.
"Ah, is it that high?" Upon hearing such an evaluation, several people took a deep breath, their mouths widened, and they were speechless.
The price of an ordinary gold-level potion is between dozens of gold dishes. Although the healing potion is relatively common and the price is slightly lower, even the most common gold-rank potion costs 20 gold dishes. , The quality of these medicines is excellent, and I am afraid that a minimum of 20,000-30,000 gold dishes can be won. This amount, they estimated that it would take several years for them to not eat or drink before they could earn this amount. Now they have only a thousand gold dishes together, which is not even one-tenth.
"Make sure that the quality of each one is the same, shouldn't the one you take out is better." The grumpy burly man before said gruffly.
"Ao Niu!" The leader of the team interrupted him sharply. Then turn around.
"Miss, you said before that as long as we take you on the same road and return to Nanfengzhou, you can send this batch of goods to us, right?"
"That's it." Loren Hill nodded.
"Although I am overjoyed for such a great gift, but the situation in the faction is critical now, I am afraid it will be difficult to pay you enough gold in return. I am afraid that it will take many years before I can thank you for your kindness, Miss."
"It's okay." Roland Hill shook her head, she was not short of money.
Afterwards, several people closed the box, and then talked to Roland Hill about the future plan.
"Otherwise, I'll invite the eldest miss to go to the restaurant for lunch. We will discuss it in detail at that time. It will not be too early." At this time, several people also reacted, looked at the scorching sun at noon, and agreed.
"OK."
Afterwards, several people carefully lifted the box and walked out of the market together with Loren Hill.
Came to a famous restaurant in the harbor, a few people went straight up to the third floor and opened two tables, the leader of the team, the woman with deep red bangs, and Roland Hill had a table for three, as for the others, it was another one. table.
After all, if they were all sitting together, Roland Hill would feel a bit oppressed by only one person, and the team leader still understood this.
"Let's introduce myself first. My name is Yang Xuemo. I'm from Zheluozhou. This is Wei Lengyan, and my family is from Shuizhuzhou. I'm also a member of the same branch." He introduced himself, and then said about his side. This woman with dark red bangs.
"Hello, Miss." Since she didn't know Lorraine Hill's name, she could only call her that.
"My name is... Jialan, from Min Zezhou." Roland Hill thought for a while and still answered like this. Luo is one of the royal surnames, so it is not suitable to say it.
"Hello, Miss Jialan." The two of them were not too surprised that Roland Hill didn't say their surname. It was normal to be a little cautious when going out.
After introducing each other, Lorraine Hill asked curiously, "Is Leng Yan from Shui Zhuzhou?"
"Yes." The woman seemed to be used to being asked so curiously, and then explained.
"Shuizhuzhou is indeed far from the southern continents. I ran away from home because of some special circumstances."
"I see." Roland Hill nodded slightly, and then looked at the strand of dark red hair in front of the forehead again.
Such a color is incompatible with the black hair at the back, and it has a prominent and eye-catching feeling, but the girl feels that this is not ordinary dyeing, but the consequence of some kind of secret method.
'The vermilion of water, the color of dan mercury' Shuizhuzhou is rich in cinnabar, and the local red dyeing skills are also famous all over the world. Many high-quality red sand and lip gloss in the dynasty are all from this continent. At the time of the party, many seniors and sisters bought cosmetics from Shuizhuzhou, and the location of Shuizhuzhou was just south of Huiluzhou, east of Huaxuzhou, not too far.
When the three of them were talking, the clerk of the hotel also brought the prepared delicacies to the table, including light and delicious fish soup, spicy and tempting stir-fried vegetables, steamed soft and glutinous pastries, etc., which were very complete.
During the conversation, Lorraine Hill also slowly learned
The structure of Tuo Shi Tang.
In addition to the main hall in Nanfengzhou, each continent has a branch hall, and then each county has a branch rudder. During inland water transportation, the helm is generally the leader or team leader, so later, the rudder master was also called the branch rudder. 's leader.
"We are members of the Qingyu branch of Qingxiaozhou. Qingxiaozhou is north of Nanfengzhou and south of Fuyun Lake. It is one of the twenty-two southern continents."
"This time, the branch sent an order to let us organize people to go overseas to purchase medicines. That's why we moved here."
"I see." Roland Hill took a small mouthful of food and nodded to show that he knew.
Is it just a branch helm? No wonder they say it will be difficult to find Uncle Yu, and they don't know if their main hall has a roster for each branch.
"Then when are you going to leave?"
"I will set off in about two days. I don't know what arrangements for Miss Jialan?"
"I can do it anytime."
"That's the best way, um... Well, let's let Leng Yan follow you, so that I can contact you at any time, and I can help you with some small things, what do you think?"
"Also, I haven't returned to the dynasty for a long time, and there are many things I want to know."
After the three of them finished their meal, they said goodbye temporarily, and Roland Hill also returned to his residence with Leng Yan.
Walking into the hotel and seeing the sergeants in battle armor sitting in the hall, the members of the Tuo Shi Tang realized that the eldest lady's identity may be very unusual.
"Help me to arrange a room for this Miss Leng Yan. It would be better if it was closer to mine." Roland Hill came to the counter.
"This, I am afraid it is more difficult, because the room you live in is our best room, and now the surrounding area is full." The clerk looked embarrassed, and now the hotel has already been reserved by the fleet where Roland Hill is located. Naturally, there is no need to reserve rooms for other guests, and there will be no good rooms left empty.
"Like This……"
"It's fine, I'll just live in an ordinary room." Wei Lengyan, who had long been shocked by these sergeants in the hotel, couldn't be pickier. She even felt that if she didn't lead the way, she would be taken down as soon as she entered the hotel.
Don't look at these people in front of this Miss Jialan, but she can see that these sergeants are old hands who have seen blood. The calluses in their palms, the cold eyes, and the breath they exude are not ordinary. Soldiers can compare.
These people may be from the elites of the army. Maybe this team is the imperial envoys directly under the dynasty.
After arranging for Wei Lengyan to stay, Roland Hill returned to the room, rested for a while, reviewed what he had learned before, and then concentrated on the magic of Mana for three hours before reopening his eyes.
The faint golden brilliance dissipated from the pupils, and the golden red scales on Roland Hill's forehead also dissipated and disappeared, and then the magic was restrained, and it became soft and breathless.
What she is currently practicing is not the natural sequence, but the "Flame Ray Dragon Transformation" of the dragon sequence, because it is convenient to search for the dragon veins and explore the secret realm in the Eastern Continent, and the dragon sequence is convenient. Change back to the natural Sequence 8 at any time. Swinging Blue Bird, with the blessing of the crown and power, even if she faces the witch of Sequence 9, she will not be at a disadvantage.
"It's time to wake Ye Ling to eat. This little guy has been sleeping for a day, so he must be hungry too."
Getting out of bed, Roland Hill knocked on the door of Eidolon beside him.
