Chapter 126
Continue on the journey, the air becomes much cooler in the early morning, which is very suitable for traveling.
Finally, when passing a small field, I saw traces of houses.
Qiuye Town is a village with a small field.
Because it is close to Chimney Mountain, volcanic ash often floats here, so the vegetation grows particularly lush.
However, although it is a village, its prosperity is no less than some relatively backward cities.
The reason is that there are a large number of scientific researchers here, including several Pokémon doctors. These scholars generally conduct research on ancient Pokémon, meteorites, and fossils.
And the reason why Hei Yu came here is that Qiuye Town is the only transportation hub in the inland, with both ports and bus stations.
The economic focus of the Hoenn region is on the coastal areas and the sea, and it is still poor in the inland.
As soon as he entered the town, Hei Yu found something different. Compared with other towns, the relaxed atmosphere, the people here are generally anxious and taciturn.
Hei Yu guessed that it might be the influence of the group of researchers. These nerds really have no emotional intelligence.
Their reputation on the Internet has never been very good.
After entering the Elf Center in Qiuye Town, Hei Yu immediately booked a room and took a comfortable shower in the bathroom.
When he came out of the bathroom again, he felt refreshed and called the restaurant to send a lot of food, including some specially processed meat.
Of course, Hei Yu couldn't eat so much. Most of it was food for the black-eyed crocodile.
As time went by, the black-eyed crocodile not only did not give up its dependence on meat food, but also enjoyed the pleasure of biting meat with big mouthfuls.
Hei Yu could only try to let him eat less of those low-energy minced meat. These processed elf meats could barely be used as staple food.
However, after this period of training, the size of the black-eyed crocodile has obviously increased, and even the scales on its body have changed from the original black to earthy yellow.
Although it still feels very rough, Hei Yu is trying his best to take care of it. After all, the scales on its back are its main means of defense, and it is very difficult to keep it smooth at all times.
Seeing the black-eyed crocodile feasting on a huge piece of beef in the corner, even Hei Yu's appetite can't help but open up.
After gulping down a bottle of milk from a large milk can, Hei Yu wiped the milk stains from the corners of his mouth. Since he drank it from the hot spring in Fuyan Town, he liked the taste of this milk.
It is said that some calcium powder is added to it, which is also very helpful for human bones.
After Hei Yu happily finished his lunch, he walked out of the Pokémon Center and found an empty corner to put on a black robe and mask.
There were almost no people on the roads in the town, and they were sparsely scattered. It seemed that because there was a traditional habit of taking a nap here, almost no one would go out at noon.
But this was just convenient for Hei Yu.
After shuttling through several dim alleys, he found a shop that no one cared about. This was the only entrance to the black market in the whole town. Hei Yu took some effort to find out.
After entering the store, Hei Yu walked around and found that it had been abandoned for a long time, and there was no one even at the counter.
Hei Yu found a secret compartment in the corner. After pressing it, a secret door suddenly appeared on the wall beside him. Inside was a narrow passage with dim light.
Hei Yu walked for a long time, and when he temporarily regained his sight, he was already in a complicated market.
The black market in Qiuye Town.
As the only transportation hub city close to the mainland and inland, this is also one of the footholds for most people walking in the gray area.
However, compared with the black market in Kanaz City, which is completely built underground, this seems to be much bolder, and the entire black market is actually in the open air.
I don’t know if it’s because the alliance has weak control over this place.
Therefore, the scale of the black market here is much smaller than those in prosperous cities, and even the number of people is relatively small.
However, their dress is almost the same as Hei Yu, wearing loose black robes and various masks on their faces, and few of them show their faces openly.
Because there are not only members of the Black Organization, but also many trainers of the Alliance, or people from some big and small families.
The Alliance turned a blind eye to this.
After all, all the people living in Qiuye Town are famous researchers, and there are even many scientific research doctors, most of whom have ancient families behind them.
In order to get their support, the Hoenn Alliance will also choose to make concessions to a certain extent, after all, this is the only way to control the inland where the control is not high.
And this black market, which is suspected to be opened by the major alliance families, is one of the conditions for concessions.
Many shops in the black market have signs at the door, which are the family emblems of the major families.
The core of the entire Qiuye Town is a circle of interests composed of scientific research families.
However, this is not Hei Yu's business, and he just treats it as a fun thing, and will not deal with these big families.
Although the black market is small, it has everything.
Hei Yu found the sales area for the stalls, spent a little money to rent a stall, and began to put all kinds of Pokémon caught in the wild on it.
A wooden sign on the side showed the selling price and specific information.
After doing all this, Hei Yu took out some unused items from his backpack, such as some rare body parts of elves, and some relatively rare useless materials.
Other stalls around saw that Hei Yu was selling a level 30 Pokémon, and looked at Hei Yu with a little more fear.
Not long after, someone came forward to ask the price.
After all, this level 30 Braveheart has good qualifications and a high level. After a little taming, it can be used as a strong temporary Pokémon.
The difficulty and strength of the Psychic System are well known in the trainer circle.
"30w Alliance Coins, this is my bottom line!"
Hei Yu was a little speechless after driving away another person who was ready to pick up the bargain.
It is indeed difficult to sell a Pokémon like this that is obviously someone else's. If it cannot be tamed successfully, it will almost be a waste of money.
Hei Yu also lowered the price appropriately, but unfortunately no one was interested. Instead, several low-level Pokémon caught in the wild were sold.
Among them was the Lippo, which was sold at a price higher than that marked by Braveheart.
Just when Hei Yu was disappointed and was about to pack up the stall and leave, suddenly another person in a black robe came forward to ask Braveheart.
"Excuse me, stall owner, where did you catch this Yongjila?" A crisp female voice came from under the wide black robe.
It turned out to be a woman?
Hei Yu was slightly surprised, but still said indifferently: "I found it by chance in the wild. Don't ask if you don't want to buy it!"
Hei Yu was vague. Could he say that this was a Pokémon from Team Rocket?
"Well, okay, just 300,000 Alliance Coins."
The woman stretched out a slender hand from her wide robe. Hei Yu took a sharp glance and took the savings card.
"It seems that this customer is not very old, or a girl?" From the white skin just now, Hei Yu could judge that the specific age should not be more than 20 years old.
