At dawn on the 20th day, the sun had just emerged from the horizon. The first ray of morning light crossed the city wall and shone on the thousands of households in the City of Agriculture. The moment the sun shone on the window, Luana woke up from her deep sleep. She released her hands that were hugging his back and carefully moved to the bed. Then she turned around and looked at him who was still sleeping soundly before leaving the bedroom with a smile.
More than an hour later, when the sun had risen high and shone through the window onto Gongyou, he was woken up by the bright light that pierced his eyelids. He turned around and looked at his side. Only the brown hair on the pillow proved that Luana had rested here. He covered his eyes with his arms and lay down for a while before getting up reluctantly to change under the hot sun outside the window.
Dressed in loose short-sleeved casual wear, Hilo noticed that the two girls had finished their breakfast as soon as he walked down the stairs. They were lying on the sofa in the living room and whispering. When Hilo saw him coming down the stairs, he sat up and said politely," Good morning, Mr. Gongyou. I made breakfast with the leftovers from last night. Please wait a moment. I'll take it out and heat it up for you."”
"Sit down, I'll heat it up." Luana pulled Hilo and slowly stood up." By the way, didn't you say that you would accompany us to shop today?"”
"Well, yes, but is Hilo all right?”Gong You didn't even stop walking. He answered as he walked to the bathroom. He had indeed promised the two girls before the battle against the Bloody Scarlet Bees the day before yesterday. Therefore, although he really wanted to stay at home and read quietly today, he still patiently agreed.
"I-I'm fine. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Gongyou. The healing potion last night was very effective.”Shiloh said shyly. Although she was still feeling a little uncomfortable, she didn't want to interrupt the fun of the three of them. She was actually very interested in shopping.
"I'll be watching over you. It'll be fine." Luana had already walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge. Of course, in this world, it was called the Magic Low Tempering Box. It was a magic tool that relied on magic stones to operate.
After washing up and eating breakfast, he saw that Hilo's face was rosy and there was nothing unusual. He went upstairs and changed into casual clothes that were convenient for traveling. This custom-made suit cost him thousands of RMB silver coins. He usually left it in the hotel or at home when he was adventuring. Moreover, he didn't have many opportunities to wear it after the completion of the work, so it was no different from a brand new one. Each 1.2 million RMB enchanted ring was worn on his left and right index fingers. Other enchanted equipment or items were not convenient to carry, so he did not wear them. Even so, his net worth was more than two million RMB, enough to scare those who knew what was good.
When he went downstairs again, he found Luana muttering things like " not as good looking as wearing dragon scales " and " just so-so " after seeing him. He was so angry that he walked over and gently knocked on her head. Then, she pestered him like an angry female cat. It was not until Hilo couldn't stand it anymore and stood up to stop them that the three of them could go out smoothly.
It was rare for Hilo to not wear a holy robe today. Instead, he changed into casual clothes like Gongyou and Luanna. Under her elegant and virtuous temperament, she looked like a rich family's daughter... No, she was now a rich family's daughter, because he had tens of millions of RMB in his pocket. This huge sum of money would belong to them today.
As they were shopping, the three of them did not ride horses. As soon as they locked the door, Luana leaned over and took his hand. On the other side, Shiloh looked envious but did not say anything. When he realized it, he gently broke away from Luana's hand. Luana suddenly became a little disappointed, so he only held one hand as if he was holding a child's hand on the street. Only then did the two women smile.
.
The First Commercial Avenue of East Street was the most luxuriously decorated open area in the City of Agriculture. It was bustling and noisy every day, attracting visitors from the surrounding villages and towns to visit. All kinds of shops with the same width and width were neatly arranged on both sides of the stone street. The most eye-catching thing was the civilian magical equipment displayed behind the transparent window. Just like the high-end household appliances on Earth's commercial street, the price was enough to make ordinary people stop. It was only because the nobles in the city loved these goods that they were placed in the most conspicuous places.
It was not Gong You's first time on East Street, but he had always been in a carriage from the Chamber of Commerce. If he rode a horse, he would have to go around this street, so this was his first time walking on the street. Compared to him, who had seen the world before he transmigrated, the village girl, Luana, and the orphan girl, Shiloh, both showed a strong interest in this street.
The three of them walked into the most luxuriously decorated magic tool shop. When they saw the magic tools up close, Hilo and Luana shouted. At this moment, a beautiful shop assistant walked over to remind the two women not to make a scene in the shop. They took the opportunity to ask about the functions of the magic tools around them, but the shop assistant only replied casually and did not pay much attention to the two women. When the shop assistant saw it, he immediately raised his hand and played with the ring. His obvious actions attracted the attention of the shop assistant. When the shop assistant saw the ring on his finger, her expression changed, and she became enthusiastic towards the two women who were looking around.
" Ladies, this is the newest model of our store's Water Purification Laundering Magic Device…Three levels can be used to clean all materials from silk to linen without any damage…" The shop assistant explained to Shiloh and Luana enthusiastically, not forgetting to wink at Gongyou. Although the beautiful shop assistant did not recognize that the ring was a high-end magic item, she recognized that the ring was made of a super precious magic material, so she could tell that Gongyou must be rich. Naturally, they would become passionate and unrestrained.
"Oh, what about that? What's that?" Although Luana didn't know why the shop assistant's attitude suddenly changed, it didn't affect her curiosity. She immediately pointed at the metal box beside her and asked.
" That's an air temperature control magic device. It can control the temperature in the room, making it cool in summer and warm in winter. It's an indispensable magic device for the nobles living in the castle.”Seeing that the two women did not recognize the air conditioner, the shop assistant could only explain its function in a simple and easy to understand way. As for the detailed parameters and maintenance costs, he did not mention a word.
By the time Luana was done sniffing and playing around with a hollow tube, half an hour had passed since they entered the shop. Shiloh was already leaning against Gongyou, exhausted. Gongyou held Shiloh's waist with one hand and held Luana's hand with the other. They walked around the shop and finally sat down on the sofa in the reception area to rest. The shop assistant stood to the side with a dry mouth.
"Bring me your catalog. I want to take a look.”Gong You comforted Luana, who still wanted to walk, and said to the beautiful shop assistant. Then he turned to check on Hilo's physical condition. He pressed his hand on her forehead and asked softly," How is it? Do you want to drink some water and close your eyes?"”
When the shop assistant left to get the catalog, Luana was still excitedly whispering into Gongyou's ear," What should I do, Gongyou? Those magic tools are so powerful. I want them all."”
"If you want it, then buy it. When you see the one on the catalog later, if you want it, just ask them to pack it up.”Common-use magic tools weren't worth much, and the ones that Luana was interested in were not even worth a fraction of the ring on his finger.
"Really, really?" Luana shook her arm happily. She had only said that she wanted both of them casually. She didn't expect him to agree.
"Really, really, stop shaking." Gong You said helplessly. At this time, he saw a water dispenser next to the reception area. He was about to get up and pour a glass of water for Hilo, but he didn't have time to deal with Luana.
"Gongyou, you're so good." Luana hugged Gongyou's neck and kissed him on the cheek. After kissing him, she realized that she had been too impulsive. She immediately puckered her lips and glared at him with shyness and anger." Bastard Gongyou, you're annoying."”
After that, the three of them continued to fight until the beautiful shop assistant returned with the catalog. Hilo persuaded them to stop and lay on the sofa, rubbing the painful waist. She stared at the culprit, Luana, angrily. At this time, she was completely different from before. She was focused on flipping through the shopping list.
In the end, Luana bought several large household magic devices from the shop, including massage chairs, washing machines, hot and cold air conditioning, vacuum cleaners, hot water stoves, cupboards, and more than ten magic devices of various sizes. However, the total price of these things was only four to five gold coins (more than 10,000 RMB). After paying, the shop owner asked her to deliver them to the address of the new house in the evening and paid an additional delivery fee.
After leaving the magic tool shop, the two girls were attracted by the magic toy shop next door. Then, the three of them went in to look at the products with wonderful designs. They wouldn't know if they didn't look at them, but they were shocked when they saw them. Even the knowledgeable Gong You was shocked by the high-end toys in this world.
At first, they saw very ordinary music boxes, colorful wind chimes, and other common things. They were nothing special except for the ingenious machine structure that made them emit sound and light. However, there were also extraordinary magic toys in the shop, such as spinning tops, self-propelled dolls, self-propelled toy cars, and so on. After seeing them, everyone exclaimed.
The first was the spinning top. Upon closer inspection, one would find that it had two layers of structure. The inner layer was circular and rotated clockwise, while the outer layer was circular and rotated counterclockwise. It was like a special magical power motor. This was comparable to the electric motor of the second industrial revolution. If the power was powerful enough, it could be used as an industrial machine tool.
Next was the self-propelled doll. It was only 20 centimeters tall and dressed like a doll, but it could stand and walk like a small sci-fi robot. Its existence proved that the high-end alchemy technology in this world was very advanced, at least comparable to the level of the 3rd industrial revolution. The intelligence of the balance of two feet was so high that it made the blacksmith workshop in Border Town despair.
Then there was the self-propelled toy car. Although it was only a palm-sized model toy car, its structural complexity and craftsmanship were so high that those who knew about it were afraid.
"Why don't we scale it up and create a large vehicle?”The male shop assistant who had just entered the shop explained the situation of the toys in the shop to the three of them.
"This toy car only has a few milligrams of magic crystals. If you want to drive a large vehicle that carries people, you need at least 20 grams of magic crystals. According to the average value of magic crystals per gram of 3 gold coins (9,000 rmb), the cost of making the magic core alone requires 2 magic crystal coins (180,000 rmb), not to mention the labor cost and maintenance cost. Even the nobles would not waste money like this.”The shop assistant smiled and reminded him kindly,"Also, because the core made of magic crystals can be used in the military, the king once banned the private manufacture or possession of large-scale magic furnaces.”
The reason why Magic Crystal Coins became a hard currency like metal currency was because Magic Crystal Coins were forged from magic crystals. Later, he asked Omniscient if there was a way to synthesize magic crystals. The answer he got was that only Epic experts could synthesize a small amount of them. In short, he decided to secretly record the synthesis process when he returned. As for now, he naturally ordered them to be delivered to his door.”
Luana silently glanced at the toy car and looked away in disgust. She didn't understand the romance of men at all, but she and Hilo liked the doll-like doll doll.
.
On the Second Commercial Avenue, there were signs with novel designs and different colors in front of the shops. There was no lack of food, clothing, accommodation, marriage, and burial. However, what attracted the two women's attention the most was the jewelry shop in the middle of the street. So, they walked slowly together. The first thing that came into view was gold and silver metal jewelry. Then, there were jewelry made of various colors of gemstones on the inside of the booth. He let the two women choose what they liked to try on, Then, he asked the shop assistant to pack one for each item they picked. By the time the two girls realized that something was wrong, there were already dozens of gift boxes in front of them. Finally, when the two girls were so afraid that they wanted to pull him away, he slowly paid for the bill and asked the shop assistant to send all the gift boxes to the new house in the evening. When they thought that this was the biggest expense of the day, they did not know that there was a large sum of money waiting for the three of them in the afternoon.
After leaving the jewelry store, the two women were still blaming him for spending money. However, shortly after he took their hands and continued shopping along the commercial avenue, they were attracted by something new. It was three gorgeous gowns that were displayed through the glass window facing the street. They were worn on three wooden mannequins, but they did not lose their beauty.
After finding that the two girls were interested, he led them into this high-end fashion design store. At first, the two girls were excited to buy a dress each, but now they could accept his gift with peace of mind. After the adventure, the relationship between the three of them had long been extremely close. However, after the shop assistant introduced the basic situation of the dress, Although Luana was still envious of the dress that was "obviously not a magic item but sold for tens of gold coins (about 100,000 RMB)", she was able to suppress Gu Qianwang and clearly express that she did not want to buy such a luxury item. The rational Hilo shook her head repeatedly. From the moment she entered the shop, she was scared by the expensive price.
However, after understanding the production process of the gowns, he still asked the shop assistant to find a designer. He wanted to order a dress for each of the two women. The resident designer happened to be a very famous artist in the kingdom's fashion industry. Moreover, he happened to be free today, so the fashion designer did not make him wait too long before coming out of the workshop. He was a middle-aged man in his fifties but was full of energy.
"Master, I want to customize a dress for my two partners.”He pressed the two women who wanted to leave into the chair with both hands and then said seriously to the fashion designer in front of him.
"Sir, what is your budget?" After the fashion designer carefully observed the reason, he realized that this customer should not be short of money, but his excellent professionalism still made the master prioritize the most easily debated matters.
"Hmm…3 mana crystal coins (270,000 RMB), everyone's budget is 3 mana crystal coins.”Gong You thought for a moment and said a number that shocked everyone. Even the master who often designed clothes for nobles was shocked.
"Do you want to be embellished with diamonds?”The fashion designer commented. He had been in this line of work for a long time, and it was rare to see such a rich young man. Basically, those who could take out so much money were very old. Even if they were the first heir of the nobility, they still had elders to restrain them, so they could not use too much money to please women.
"I definitely need to decorate it, but diamonds are only worth 2 silver coins (100 RMB) per gram, this thing is too cheap.”He was not interested in the cheap synthetic diamonds that alchemists often mass-produced. This hard stone had no practical use other than drilling holes in iron.
"Diamonds have a very good luster and are most suitable for embellishment. The second is pearls, but these two have become cheap because of artificial synthesis. Since the customer doesn't like them, then change them to gold-rimmed jade.”The fashion designer gave his suggestion after careful consideration. If he did not add some expensive accessories, he would not be able to use up the budget of the dress that was equivalent to 900 grams of gold.
After agreeing to the preliminary design plan, the fashion design master called a female apprentice and asked her to take the two unwilling girls to the inner room to measure their body figures. The master stayed behind to discuss the details of the design with him. For example, they had to use pure gold to embroider the identity logo of the Golden Boots Adventurer Group. The shape of the jade had to match the meaning of the Golden Boots. Finally, it took more than ten minutes to finish. Because of the huge amount of materials, the deposit for the custom-made dress was 70%. They also agreed to deliver the goods to their doorstep in about ten days before settling the balance.
After leaving the fashion design store, the two girls were still in a daze. To them, 500,000 RMB was already the price of a small house in Border Town, but it didn't matter. They just wanted to have fun. They obviously wanted it but were too embarrassed to say it out loud, so he would buy it for the two girls. When the dress was completed, they would be overjoyed.
.
For the past few days, Luana had been using the excuse that her clothes had been damaged by gray wolves as an excuse to wear casual clothes, so he decided to take her to buy new clothes. Of course, Shiloh also had a share. The three of them walked into the largest ready-to-wear clothing store on the street at the intersection of Commercial Avenue. The two women tried on more than ten different styles of clothes under the recommendation of the waitresses. Every time they changed into a new dress, they would excitedly ask him for his opinion in the changing room. He was tired of being asked, so he bought them all. Then, the waitress stuffed clothes into the changing room even more diligently.
"Gongyou, what do you think of this dress?”Luana asked happily. She had been smiling when she left the fashion design store, and now she couldn't stop smiling.
"It's alright." Gong You looked up and said seriously. Luanna often exercised, so her waist was thin and her legs were straight. Her figure was very curvy. No matter what she wore, she would look good.
"Be serious." Luana pouted and pretended to be angry. In order to let Gongyou see it more clearly, she deliberately turned around a few times.
"As expected of a popular shop on the business street. The quality of the clothes is very good.”Gong You said helplessly. Even if the clothes were ordinary, he still had to rack his brains to praise them. It was really tiring.
"Is it because the clothes are nice? Or am I better looking?" Luana asked him happily and even took two steps closer to look at him.
"They all look good." Gong You said perfunctorily. Could he say that it was not good-looking? Luana would be angry.
"Hmm?" Luana was indeed a little angry this time. After making a sound with her nose, she stared at Gongyou with her big eyes.
"I think Miss Luana looks better than her clothes.”Hilo walked out of the changing room and shot Gongyou.
"Hilo's right," Gong You quickly nodded in agreement, but although Luana's mood improved, she was still a little unhappy.
"Mr. Gongyou, what about the one I'm wearing?”said Hilo, who had just pulled Gongyou along with her new subject.
"Yi Mei, you are even more beautiful." Gong You indicated that he already knew the correct answer and quickly answered.
"Humph." Luana was angry again. She snorted at Gong You, making him feel that these two girls were really difficult to please.
"Sigh." In the end, Gong You could only sigh helplessly. These two girls could do whatever they wanted. He would not serve them anymore.
"Haha." Hilo looked at Gongyou's embarrassed face and suddenly laughed, and the atmosphere warmed up in an instant.
"Hehe." Luana also laughed. Sometimes, a girl's mood reversal came so casually.
As it was summer, the two girls bought six short-sleeved shirts each. They also helped Gong You pick a pure-colored top, and the two girls only bought two long-sleeved shirts each. Later, the two girls were not satisfied with the short skirts, but in the end, he bought one for each of them. The two girls could accept the one-piece dress and bought three pieces each. The fabric was very soft and convenient, and there was a low-cut style that especially complemented the two lumps of meat. Luanna liked the middle pants very much, so she bought four of them often. Hilo bought only two spare pieces, and then the trousers were reversed. Luana bought only two, but Hilo bought four. She could actually wear the trousers under the holy robe. They also helped him pick out a pair of tight trousers, thin enough to wear under the armor.
"I've been eating too well recently. I feel like I've grown a little bigger.”Louanna was talking to Hilo in the dressing room, but the sound reached Common's ears through the door. He didn't mean to eavesdrop.
"I think I need to change into new underwear too.”At this time, Hilo was helping Luana tie her belt behind her. The two women talked about secret topics as if no one was around, but they did not realize that they had heard the common reason outside the door.
"My old clothes are a little too small. They're a little tight and very uncomfortable.”Luana said worriedly. For someone from the Combat Department, the flesh on her chest was an important factor that would affect her movements.
"Do you want to buy two more?" Shiloh said, a little embarrassed. All the expenses today were paid by the common source. In other words, she had been eating and using his food since she met him. If it wasn't for the recent improvement in their relationship, she would have paid for it herself.
"It's okay. We're partners. We'll just buy two more.”Luana found a good excuse and persuaded Hilo to spend the money.
Gong You listened to the whispers of the two girls and analyzed. He realized that since the two girls had teamed up with him, they had been eating magical beast meat for every meal because of their good nutrition. Therefore, their bodies seemed to have started to develop again. However, this should be a good thing, right? However, when it came to buying underwear, the two girls did not let him continue to look. They hid in the changing room and tried on each other before sneakily stuffing them into the pile of pre-ordered clothes. Luana also helped him choose a few men's underwear, and Hilo also helped him choose a swimsuit and pajamas. When he paid, he found out that each of them bought seven sets of underwear and a swimsuit, and there were all kinds of colors and styles. They were really bold girls. Or perhaps it was because the adventurer team had more yin than yang.
They also agreed with the shop owner to pack them up and deliver them to their door. Only then did the three of them leave the clothing store empty-handed in satisfaction. After shopping for a while, they found a large shoe store. Although the three of them did not need new shoes for the time being, they still walked in along the way. In the end, they really found some goods that they might need. They bought some casual shoes, socks, riding boots, and so on. Then, they paid the shop owner to hire someone to deliver them to their door. The time of delivery was also in the evening.
After leaving the shopping area, the three of them walked to the next street on their way back. They accidentally found a very clean beauty shop, so the three of them walked in. After arranging for the two women to have their hair treated, he also cut the slightly longer hair a little shorter. Although it was the first time the two women came to this kind of shop for treatment, they immediately became familiar with the owner. However, he knew that the owner was friendly to them because of the money. The cost of beauty treatment was not low.
.
The morning passed happily. When it was close to noon, the three of them did not plan to go home and make lunch themselves, so they went to the central square of the agricultural city recommended by the owner of the beauty shop. The square was located in the middle of the intersection of the four major Urban area. The commoners of the east, the citizens of the south, the poor of the west, and the nobles of the north. Around the square were areas related to food and daily necessities such as daily necessities.
The mobile vendors in the square attracted passersby with their delicious food that made people drool. Hilo and Luana were so attracted by the fragrance that they walked together. There was a cart for making fried food. There were wheels on the bottom, a stove burning firewood in the middle, and a big iron pot on top. At this time, the big pot was boiling in vegetable oil. There were fried meat skewers covered with flour. Each wooden stick was skewered with a few pieces of fat and lean meat. It was wrapped in a layer of starch, neither too much nor too little. Each skewer was about the size of a bite.
Although it was unhealthy fried food, the two women were attracted by the fragrance and loved it crazily. Unable to persuade them, Gongyu could only listen to their advice and buy ten skewers wrapped in oil paper. The three of them walked to the proper food shop beside the square and tasted five copper coins.(2rmb) A serving of fried meat skewers. The spices and fat in the dough blended perfectly with each other. While reducing the greasy degree, it also greatly increased the taste. Moreover, a little onion and garlic fragrance brought the taste to a deeper level. No wonder it was so popular.
After sitting down on the chairs at the open-air dining table, the three of them called the waiter to order. The two women ordered two vegetable salads, but they still preferred hot food, so they ordered a vegetable stew. They chose a fresh fruit juice that was a specialty of the City of Agriculture as their drink. The main course was six barbecue pancakes and three pieces of bread. As for the dessert, they chose a fruit platter and a special fruit crisp.
The three of them gathered around the table and chatted happily about their favorite and hated food, as well as their thoughts on the food they had eaten recently. They didn't stop talking until the food was served. However, they realized that although there were a lot of food on the menu, the amount was actually very small. Even Hilo, who had a small appetite, might not be full. Moreover, the drink was a kind of cold water mixed with fruit juice. It was not iced fruit juice mixed with water, but fresh water mixed with fruit juice. Although he was very angry, he could only obediently call the waiter to order more, ruining his originally good mood.
From time to time, some plainly dressed foreigners could be seen passing by in the square. They were country bumpkins who came to the city for sightseeing. Some of their clothes were even full of patches, and they were basically restrained. Their eyes were filled with envy and gloominess. Shiloh and Luana seemed to be used to these things, but it was very dazzling for the common people who had lived in the country since childhood. Poor and rich coexisted, light and darkness coexisted. Under the bright and beautiful surface of the agricultural city was a darkness that went deep into the bone marrow. This was the normal state of this world, an unbalanced and distorted world.
There was a saying that went,"Where there is light, there is darkness. The brighter the light, the deeper the darkness."
But the true meaning of this sentence was: Only the exploitation of labor could create prosperity that exceeded the average level in ordinary places, and there must be exploited people behind the corresponding prosperity. The essence of prosperity was a false phenomenon caused by the unbalanced distribution of resources.
From the perspective of the common cause, developed regions relied on industrial scissors to exploit developing regions, using cheap external resources to maintain internal prosperity, causing external farmers to be unable to eat.
For example, there was a farmer in the mountains. There was a river in front of his house, and there was a fruit tree by the river. After the farmer got up one morning, he wanted to drink water from the river and eat fruit by the tree. However, at this time, a noble passed by and the noble said, The peasants were required to work for the nobles in order to enjoy the water and fruits of nature. Because everyone agreed with the saying,'those who don't work don't get to eat,' the peasants worked for the nobles obediently. They first carried the river water into the pool of the nobles 'houses, then picked the fruits on the trees and sent them to the nobles' storeroom. After that, they happily went home to drink water and eat fruits. In the end, the farmer felt very happy that he had exchanged his labor for food…This was the epitome of labor alienation in this world.
" Gongyu, Gongyu, let's go over there and have some meat skewers..." Luana's words interrupted Gongyu's thoughts, which made him smile in relief. He was so small that he could not change anything. It was meaningless to continue thinking about it. Now, he only needed to care about the people around him.
"You can't eat too much of that fried food.”Gong You tried to persuade him with a smile, but only Luana pouted and glared at him unhappily.
In the end, aside from Hilo, who was not feeling well and did not continue to eat the fried kebabs, Gong You and Luana continued to buy all kinds of delicacies and ate to their heart's content. Fortunately, there were candy vendors around the square that did not let Hilo's mouth go empty. In short, after eating and drinking unlimited food and drinks, the three of them were in a good mood again. Only when they could no longer eat did they slowly leave the central square.
.
After lunch, Luana suddenly remembered the martial arts club she visited the last time she went out, so she led the two of them to the South District for a stroll and digestion. During the trip, they passed by the Adventurers Guild's staff residential area in the middle of the South District. The entire community was managed and surrounded by brick walls to prevent outsiders from entering, so the three of them only took a look through the door and left.
There were more than ten martial arts clubs in the back streets and alleys of the residential area. Each of them specialized in at least one weapon, from swords, spears, knives to fists, feet, and other strange weapons. Some instructors even held the position of teacher in the lord's family and often taught the daily training of the knights. These senior instructors were also the retainers of the high-level nobles. Sometimes, they would also serve as the family teachers of their heirs. Only such instructors with local backgrounds could safely manage the martial arts club and become the owner. Many times, strength alone might not be enough to solve all the problems. A certain level of peer communication and network operation were necessary means.
Strolling in the alley, he looked at the martial arts centers that were bustling with noise at the most sleepy time of the afternoon. He asked curiously," Why are there so many people learning martial arts?”
"Most of them are new adventurers. In addition to recruiting regular students, there are also advanced training courses for adventurers.”Luana glanced at them and explained. She even said in a proud tone," I went in to spar with them last time.”
"Did we win?" Although Luana came from the countryside, she had a retired adventurer father who taught her since she was young. She was very outstanding in martial arts.
"Of course, no one my age can beat me.”Luana said proudly, even raising her head a little.
However, Gongyou understood. Luanna was very strong among her peers, but there were a lot of people of different ages who could defeat her bare-handed. However, he did not say these disappointing words. Instead, he looked at the martial arts center and thought, should he go in and learn martial arts? After a while, he shook his head and denied it. He had thought it through. Instead of wasting time practicing martial arts, it would be better to focus on reading a few more magic-related books.'
After that, Luana took the two of them by the hand and walked into a martial arts dojo that was famous for its martial arts. Her father had visited this place when he was young, but it just so happened that the senior instructors had gone to guide the knights in the past few days. He heard that it was a high-intensity emergency training that was added at the last minute, so most of the adventurers and students did not come. Only the young ordinary instructors stayed to watch the dojo. In the end, the three of them left after a quick tour of the venue.
After walking out of the alley, Gong You thought that they had already walked around the East District in the morning, so he held the two women's hands and walked west. At the junction of the South District and the Xicheng District was an old neighborhood. From passers-by, he heard that there seemed to be a local specialty shop specially opened for tourists. Although the style of the local products was very strange and did not meet the aesthetic standards of foreigners, it was also a pleasure to watch the local products.
There were three major markets in the old street: the second-hand market, the flower and bird market, and the jade market.
The second-hand market was just as its name suggested. It was a large market for buying and selling second-hand goods. The three of them walked around and found some old books and old props that were worth looking at. The rest were really old goods. Some of the old books were collected by poor nobles or bankrupt merchants and sold at a low price. Some were handwritten manuscripts sewn with thin threads. In this world where the art of typography already existed, handwritten books were rare. At first, they picked them up and flipped through them excitedly. In the end, he found that they were all random poems of the author, or some unknown riddles, legends, and speculations of the ancient civilization. They had no practical value, but because they were the only copies, he decided to buy them as decorations for his new home. After agreeing with the seller on the delivery time, he continued to stroll around.
Although there were a few damaged magic tools in the market, after Omniscient evaluated them as worthless, he turned around and left. After learning from Omniscient that there were no particularly valuable old goods in the market, he held the two girls 'hands and left.
After entering the flower and bird market, Hilo was very happy to see the beautiful flowers everywhere. Like a normal girl, she stopped in front of every flower shop for a moment until she had a full bouquet of flowers in her hand. However, Luana was bored. She was also a girl, but she was not interested in flowers. Perhaps it was because she was tired of looking at flowers in the wild every day since she was young. Flowers were not as attractive as pastries to her. When she passed by the tea shop, He bought a few sets of each of the more than ten kinds of tea leaves in the shop. There was no need to choose anything. When the time came, he would just choose the ones that tasted good.
Although there were also some small animals sold in the market as pets, the two women were only happy to see them but were unwilling to raise them. They also understood that it was not convenient to raise pets in the current lifestyle of no fixed residence. Adventurers had always been at home everywhere. In the end, when the two women had played with the pets in their hands, he took them away with a disappointed look on their faces.
The jade market was the most interesting market in the old neighborhood. The streets were full of rough jade, jade embryos, all kinds of gemstones, and odd-shaped stones. He asked Omniscient to tell him that he could pick up those jade stones and experience the treatment of the main characters in novels. Although he was not short of money, it would be very pleasant to make a big deal out of small ones. In the end, he found that the valuable jade stones had already been picked up by people with appraisal magic. It was not his turn to come and pick up the missing stones. So, he left angrily with the two girls. It made them feel strange.
" Where are the unowned gems nearby?』
[Omniscient: The distribution map of nearby mineral resources has been listed. Please check it yourself.]
'You want me to mine? Gong You was so angry that he was no longer interested in finding jewelry and jade. However, he still silently recorded the distribution map of natural resources. Perhaps it would be useful at some point.
.
Not far after leaving the old street, they entered the main street of the Xicheng District. There were all kinds of open-air beach vendors on both sides of the road. Among them, birds and other birds were locked in cages and sold together with animals tied to the railings. Although the agricultural capital was mainly agricultural, animal husbandry was also very developed. Because it was located in the largest southeastern plain of the kingdom, the climate was peaceful and the rainfall was moderate.
People from the surrounding villages and towns often hunted the furs of rabbits, ferret, badger, mink, wolves, bears, and other wild animals that were later sold in the city, or simply raised livestock and fish to be sold. They even saw that the furs sold at one of the stalls should have come from the village that the three of them had been to a few days ago when they had received the commission. After an omniscient inquiry, they confirmed this matter. After all, the village chief would also sell the furs to make a small profit after buying the beast carcasses.
Compared to the streets of the East District, which were mostly filled with humans, the streets of the West District were filled with people, including many Forest people. Other than the Celestials (Aliens) and Giants (Descendants of Gods), the other races such as the Forest Elves, Miners (Mining Dwarves), Garden People (Halflings), Barbarians (Half-Giants), Orcs (Beast-headed Human Body), Half-Orcs (Human-faced Beast-ears), and other races that rarely appeared, everyone could be seen here. Moreover, everyone seemed to be living in harmony. Was it because there had never been a war between them?
Moreover, they found that there were no classic Orc slaves in this world. After asking Hilo, they found out that there was no slavery in this world, because once a slave believed in a certain god, the relevant church would send someone to inform the slave owner to immediately release the believers of the god and set them free. Those disobedient noble slave owners had long forgotten their family coat of arms in history. There was even an emperor of a certain empire who wanted to enact laws to support slavery. It claimed that even believers of God could be slaves of the Emperor, and the Emperor was labeled as a blasphemer by the Church. On the same day, an angel descended and burned the entire royal family to death. This matter was clearly recorded in the Church's records.
In short, the merchants had bought a slave with great difficulty, but the slave had gone to believe in the Order Gods. Then, the merchant was informed by the church of the God that the slave believed in. Because the slave was already a believer of the God, the merchant was asked to release the slave immediately. So, should he release the slave or not? It would be a waste of money if they were released, but if they were not released, they would be burned at the stake. It was better not to buy and sell slaves from the beginning. This was a matter that had no benefits and was definitely a loss.
This world clearly looked more like the feudal civilization of the Middle Ages in the Dark Age, but the world where gods really existed was so special. Slavery had long been swept away, and even clergymen usually did not dare to do evil at will, because once they did evil, they would definitely produce evil light. If other clergymen came to identify evil, oh, this was a 'living achievement.' In the end, the evil clergyman would be sent to the Inquisition by his colleagues to receive the reward...
After passing through the main street that sold livestock and other additional products, it was the exclusive street for agricultural products and agricultural products. Although this was not the only farmer's market, it was the largest and most complete one in the City of Agriculture. Although the two women wanted to buy some ingredients on the spot, they only gave up their thoughts and continued to follow him after he expressed that it was inconvenient to take things shopping.
At the junction of the northern and Xicheng District was the red-light district. At first, the three of them did not recognize this place because it was not open for business in broad daylight. Therefore, the three of them walked straight in without knowing anything. However, they were surprised to see a large number of female shops with obvious signs in the middle of the street. Then, the two women who reacted covered their eyes and pushed him across the street.
"Mr. Gongyou, please close your eyes.”Hilo was pressed against Gongyou, her hands covering his eyes and pushing his back.
"Don't open your eyes and follow us.”Luana locked one of her hands in his chest and pulled him. She even covered his eyes with her other hand.
After hurriedly entering the northern city area, they realized that there were very few pedestrians on the streets here. Moreover, most of them were surrounded by wealthy and wealthy families. When they passed by a courtyard that was obviously owned by a noble, they happened to meet a young man in luxurious clothes riding a white horse. When the white horse passed by them, the three of them were stunned.
The white horse had a pair of white wings folded between its back and abdomen, just like a bird folding its wings when it walked. It carried the young man in luxurious clothes and ran at a fast pace. The young man on its back ignored the three people standing by the roadside, but the three people still leaned against the roadside and watched it pass cautiously.
"What…what is that? A horse with wings?" Luana muttered to herself, but Common Reason, who was also shocked, had no time to pay attention to her.
"I seem to have heard the Divine Chief mention that horses are divided into four categories: inferior horses, warhorses, pegasi, and unicorns. That horse should be the pegasi.”Although this was the first time Hilo had seen a Pegasus, he had heard of them.
'What's that?』
" Omniscient: Pegasus. Maximum load is 400kg. When the load is less than 200kg, it can glide at a low altitude. When there is no load, it can fly to a high altitude."
How do I get it?』
" Omniscient: Only the royal family's pastures can raise flying horses, and they need the royal family's permission to purchase them. Under normal circumstances, they are used for military purposes. In private, unless the higher-ups and their heirs are forbidden to ride them."
" Ranches…It's possible to get pegasi with Omniscience, but there's a limit to the number of mounts.'Gong You was depressed to find that even if he got it, he wouldn't be able to ride a Pegasus openly. This was too disappointing. However, he immediately cheered himself up,'Even if I can't ride it now, I will definitely be able to ride it in the future.'
.
After the Pegasus incident, the three of them were not in the mood to continue shopping, so they jointly proposed to go to the ranch outside the city. The two girls agreed very much. The three of them returned home and rode on the inferior horse. Then, they immediately left the City of Agriculture under the omniscient navigation. The ranch in the suburbs was not far from the City of Agriculture. It only took them 20 minutes to run at full speed from the city.
On the vast plains, there was a fence with a diameter of several kilometers surrounding the pasture. The rancher lived in a few single-story houses built with bricks around the fence. The main area was also very large. There were dozens of horses scattered in the pasture. This was a small pasture. After comparing the information of several ranches in the suburbs, they finally chose this one because it was the easiest to buy horses.
Horses in this world were generally tall. Inferior horses were more than 160cm tall and weighed at least 400kg. Warhorses were close to 200cm tall and weighed 750kg. Ordinary warhorses could easily make their riders fall off after training. The huge height difference would make the injured lie down for several days before they could stand up. However, as long as there was enough healing potion, they were not afraid of falling. Therefore, the three of them practiced horsemanship very efficiently. They could fall down and fall down.
After entering the ranch, the owner of the ranch, who had noticed the three of them from a distance, took the initiative to welcome them. He let the two women look after the horses outside, and he entered the house alone to talk to the ranch owner. At the beginning, he directly proposed to buy war horses. This made the ranch owner, who had originally guessed that the three of them might be here to buy inferior horses, feel embarrassed. Under normal circumstances, the ranch owner could not casually sell war horses, because most of these horses were reserved by the knights. However, he dared to come because he had thought of a countermeasure.
"Someone saw a sneaky figure walking into the 31st gate of the 4th street in the Xicheng District three days ago.”Gong You looked at the Rancher and smiled. He wasn't worried that the Rancher wouldn't sell the warhorse because he had a very important bargaining chip.
"You…What do you know?" The rancher stood up and asked in a panic. Why didn't they follow the rules when they were talking about business? How could they break the negotiation table right away?
"Maybe you know everything, maybe you don't. It depends on whether you want to sell the warhorse or not.”Gong You continued to smile. He did not force others to hand over their belongings. Instead, he was conducting an ordinary business transaction. This was a reasonable and legal method.
In the end, the Rancher paid 5 magic crystal coins for each horse They bought three warhorses at the price of 450,000 RMB. The price of each warhorse was comparable to ordinary enchanted equipment, which made the two girls very happy. After the three of them put on the saddles given by the rancher for the warhorses that had only undergone basic training, they rode them for a while before bidding farewell to the rancher and riding back slowly. They enjoyed the scenery while familiarizing themselves with the stronger warhorses. The inferior horses that they rode here were tied up and followed behind the warhorses obediently, not daring to run around.
On the way, they met cows grazing in the fallow fields. The areas outside the city with abundant rain and good terrain were either pastures or farms, which were full of vitality. The three of them stopped and looked around for a while before continuing their journey back. On the way, they saw a workshop and a winery by the river. They wanted to go up and take a look, but they were rejected by the staff, which made the three of them feel a little regretful. When they were about to reach the city gate, they found a large caravan occupying the passage. After asking, they found out that it was a salt merchant. If they continued to drive the truck east from the City of Agriculture, they would reach the seaside after seven or eight days. There was the largest salt factory in the kingdom, so the closer the kingdom was to the seaside, the cheaper the price of sea salt.
When they returned home, they found several delivery clerks in front of the yard. They had timed it just right. After giving the delivery man a tip, it was already dusk. The three of them remembered that they had heard about a high-rated fish restaurant around the square at noon, so they packed up and walked out to continue their day's tour. Along the way, Luana happily hummed a song that they could not hear clearly, and Hilo shook her hand. The two women were in high spirits after visiting the natural scenery and going for a ride.
.
In the evening, there were more people in the central square than during the day. There were many children playing in the crowd, and there was a circus performance that didn't exist at noon next to the fountain. Therefore, the three of them decided to go over and watch after dinner. When they entered the fish restaurant, they felt that the environment here was really good, so after shopping for a day, the three of them happily found an empty seat in the corner to rest and eat.
Under the deep red dusk outside the window, the three of them happily ate the delicious All-Fish Banquet and quietly watched the night sky gradually dye the entire city. The light of the magic stone lamp opened up the nightlife of the citizens. After a day of work, the citizens either returned home to accompany their loved ones or gathered in the tavern to drink. The three of them who accompanied each other revealed a warm smile after drinking the fruit wine.
When they left the restaurant, the circus was preparing for the second round of performance tonight. The three of them who arrived at the right time immediately bought tickets and sat down. The atmosphere of watching the performance in the front row was indeed different. Even Gong You, who had been bombarded by a large amount of Internet information, cheered with everyone when he saw it, not to mention the two women who were watching the circus for the first time. Although Luana could kill a tiger with one punch after wearing the enchanted equipment, However, when she saw the animal trainer put his hand into the tiger's mouth, she was still frightened and screamed loudly. Hilo also held his arm from the beginning to the end, and his eyes were fixed on the animals playing acrobatics in the field.
It was already past nine o'clock when the second round of performances ended. The three of them strolled home along the street. On the way, the two women were still discussing the circus performance. They each held a common arm and talked to each other through him. The two women were so excited that their faces turned red when they argued loudly, especially when they were discussing who was stronger, the lion or the tiger.
"The book says that lions are more powerful than tigers.”Hilo said with a clear mind. She had not only read the classics of the church, but also the miscellaneous books in the library of the temple.
"That lion is so skinny that it can't beat the tiger at all.”Luana said disdainfully. She looked down on the lion that was so thin that her bones could be seen. On the contrary, she liked the tiger that had maintained a certain amount of muscle.
"Mr. Gongyou, who do you think is more powerful?”Shiloh was disappointed with the pestering Luana, and she was eager to ask for help from the audience.
"Gongyou, are you supporting me? Or support Hilo?" Luana had strayed from the main topic of the discussion. She made a strong demand for common cause.
"Stop arguing. Even lions and tigers combined can't beat me, so I'm the strongest.”Gong You said helplessly. Instead of letting the two women continue arguing, it was better to let him end this topic directly.
When he got home, the two women did not immediately occupy the bathroom to take a shower as usual. Instead, they urged him to change into the swimsuits they had chosen. He did not know why, but after he changed into the swimsuit, he realized that something was wrong. The two women were a little dizzy from the alcohol. Then, he was pulled into the bathroom by the two women who had also changed into swimsuits. They played with the water until the well water in the water tank was used up.
At night, Hilo and Luana played with the music box on the bed. They also took out the toy car to dismantle it. When the magic stone in the music box was exhausted, they reluctantly put down the toy and prepared to sleep. They urged him to turn off the magic stone wall lamp quickly. In the middle of the night, the two women unknowingly hugged his arm, causing him to have a nightmare of being surrounded by a group of monsters and being unable to move.
