Chapter 93 Silvestre City, Treasure Pavilion, Potential Conflict
After all, Silves City is the capital and is much more prosperous than Soto City.
After Xiao Xian followed the crowd into the city, he found a teahouse on the side of the road, ordered a cup of cheap tea, and gave a tip of two Silver Soul coins.
"Boss, are there places like auction houses and treasure houses in the city? Which places do more nobles go to?" Xiao Xian asked while holding up a cup of tea.
Only the nobility could afford whale glue, and it was very effective.
Wherever there are nobility, there is whale glue.
In the capital of such a kingdom, there should be quite a few places like auction houses and treasure houses.
The boss was a middle-aged man. He was holding the Gintama coins and was smiling happily.
When he heard this, he immediately looked embarrassed.
He looked Xiao Xian up and down. You look dusty and you are obviously from outside. But as soon as he sat down, he asked where there are many nobles... What do you want to do?
The boss held the Gintama coin in his hand and began to stammer.
Xiao Xian put down the tea without hesitation and snatched the Gintama coin back.
boss:"……"
Across the street.
Xiao Xian found another mobile tea shop on the street. The stall owner was a shrewd young man. He decisively came closer and explained it in detail.
After getting the answer, Xiao Xian happily left the Gintama Coin.
Then he went in the direction the young man pointed.
"..."
Xiao Xian entered Silvester City from the South Gate. It just so happened that the South Gate was where most of the nobles gathered.
South City is also known as the Royal City District. The Spirit Hall, the Great Fighting Spirit Arena, the Auction House, the Grand Hotel, and even the King’s Castle of Silvester City are all located here.
It didn't take too much time.
Xiao Xian saw the Great Fighting Spirit Arena, which was a very iconic building.
After walking around it, Xiao Xian saw an auction house.
However, he did not go in directly.
The astute young man said that the auction house and the Treasure Pavilion are part of the same company, and many items that are unsold or even haven't been auctioned yet will sometimes be placed in the Treasure Pavilion on the other side and sold in advance.
Many sellers are in a hurry to use the money, and don’t want to waste even a minute after depositing the goods.
If you want to find a bargain, or buy something good in advance, you can try here.
No need to waste time waiting for the auction to start.
Xiao Xian felt that his two Silver Soul Coins were well spent.
In a sparsely populated area on the street, he shook his black robe twice, and a constant breeze from the inside out took away the old dust, making him look cleaner.
Only then did Xiao Xian slowly walk towards the treasure pavilion.
The Treasure Pavilion is a parallelogram-shaped building, all black, fifty meters high, and tilted to the right.
On the other side is, of course, the auction building, which is also a parallelogram building, but it is white and tilted to the left.
The sharp corners of the two buildings are close together, leaving a triangular area in the middle, where seven crystal corridors of different heights are built.
There were many nobles in gorgeous robes standing there, chatting and laughing, while looking down calmly at the people below.
"..."
The gate of the Treasure Pavilion was also a parallelogram and made entirely of white jade. Standing at the door were four waiters, two men and two women, about seventeen or eighteen years old, all very tall.
Seeing Xiao Xian coming forward, one of the girls came forward, bowed and smiled, "Hello, how can I help you?"
"Buying things, do you have whale glue?" Xiao Xian looked over calmly and was very direct.
The girl was slightly stunned and a little surprised.
Although Xiao Xian was wearing a black robe and a hood, he was not wearing a mask.
From the lower face, he doesn't look very old, maybe thirteen or fourteen years old.
He's totally like a little brother.
But he wanted to buy whale glue? This kind of thing is often used to liven up the aristocracy...
The girl's eyes gradually became strange.
"Is there?" Xiao Xian asked again, his voice still calm.
"Whaleidoscope, of course we have it. But I'm sorry, sir, could you please tell me if you have the qualification certification to purchase from our Treasure Pavilion?"
The girl continued patiently, "If you have the bidding qualification certification from the auction house next door, that's fine too."
Xiao Xian looked unfamiliar, and the fabric of his black robe was also very ordinary, so he should not be a noble. However, the jade belt tied around his waist did not seem simple.
Even though he was young and what he wanted to buy was strange, the girl did not dare to ignore it.
Xiao Xian took out a black card from the soul guide on his waist. What qualifications or no qualifications? Isn’t it just a gold soul coin?
The girl took it bewilderedly, but she stared at the black card and soon realized what was going on. She quickly and respectfully handed the black card back and made a gesture of invitation.
The black card is commonly used by mainland banks and contains at least 10,000 gold soul coins.
Their qualification certification is nothing more than proof of assets of a mere two thousand gold soul coins.
The girl took small steps and led Xiao Xian into the Treasure Pavilion.
The style inside is not gorgeous, but looks very simple, with only paintings and reliefs on the walls, and strong traces of time.
Every ten or so steps the girl would stop and wait for Xiao Xian.
But it's not used at all.
As soon as she stopped, she found that Xiao Xian had already passed her.
She couldn't help but quicken her pace speechlessly.
This guest seems to be very anxious... She quietly glanced at Xiao Xian's lower back and revealed an intriguing smile.
Following the girl's guidance, Xiao Xian went up to the second floor and came to a spacious hall.
In the hall, there are crystal counters crisscrossing each other, and under the crystal counters are countless collections of various kinds.
Even Xiao Xian glanced at it casually and could see a few pictures of girls with pitiful faces, with prices clearly written below. There were a few nobles standing by the counter, choosing things at random with picky eyes.
At the same time, he cursed in a low voice with dissatisfaction, saying that he had bought so many and they couldn't stand the tossing and turning and had to replace them with another batch.
"..."
The girl did not leave. She quickly found a waiter in the hall, whispered a few words to him, smiled and nodded to Xiao Xian, then turned and left.
The waitress was also a tall girl with long legs and a hot body.
She walked over in small steps, bowed and saluted Xiao Xian, "Hello, please follow me."
In the middle area of the hall, on a long counter, there was a dark brown, even black object.
The label reads, Thousand-Year-Old Whale Rubber.
Xiao Xian glanced at the price, ten thousand gold soul coins.
Xiao Xian: “…”
Are prices rising so much?
"This is it, take it out." Xiao Xian took out the black card and said directly to the waiter.
Buy it if you have enough money, no matter how expensive it is.
After that, let Xiao San sell Rongrong some hidden weapons, and you can earn millions of gold soul coins in minutes.
Xiao Xian has always regarded other people's money as dirt.
The waitress quickly took the black card. She took small steps to find the supervisor and confirmed that there were enough gold soul coins in it before taking the key from the supervisor, opening the counter and taking out the whale glue.
"..."
At the side, several nobles who had been selecting girls earlier came over. They had frivolous looks on their faces and frowned as they looked at the empty whale jelly counter... There was a hint of dissatisfaction in their eyes.
Behind them, the waiter was holding a few picture albums of girls and looked at the counter with a horrified expression.
Not far away, other nobles who were selecting items of their choice stared over quietly and excitedly.
They were all familiar with this area, whale glue.
But the remaining piece is very expensive, and they don’t want to waste money on it.
Now, those who are not short of money are crowded together, but there is only one piece of stuff...
However, when the nobles who were watching the fun saw the faces of these nobles clearly, their faces changed and they quickly lowered their heads and looked elsewhere.
Xiao Xian took the whale glue calmly, flipped his hand, and put it back into the Twenty-Four Bridges on a Moonlit Night.
Before these nobles could cause any trouble, a light breeze blew quietly.
"..."
Suddenly, the faces of these nobles changed slightly. They muttered a few words in a low voice, like "This kid is lucky", and glared at Xiao Xian coldly before turning around and leaving in a hurry.
Xiao Xian also turned around and left calmly, following the same path he came from and quickly left the Treasure Pavilion.
Sunlight spores are treasures to capable soul masters, but are pure poison to useless soul masters.
Xiao Xian didn't want to cause trouble, so he had to let the trouble shut up first.
The soul power fluctuations of these guys are very faint and weak, but judging from the faces of the waiters behind them, they are probably of high status.
Even just now, the waiter who served him, after taking out the whale glue, saw these nobles coming over, his face turned slightly pale, and he wanted to put it back.
If Xiao Xian hadn't acted quickly, there might have been some twists and turns.
Xiao Xian raised his head one last time, glanced at the magnificent treasure pavilion, recalled everything he had just seen, and murmured, "Nobles..."
"..."
Those nobles indeed moved very quickly.
Before Xiao Xian left the city, he saw a strange soul master searching for something on the street and at the city gate with a very solemn expression.
There were four soul rings on his body, one white, two yellow and one purple. Under the possession of his martial spirit, he turned into a hunting dog with a black nose.
He leaned against the south gate of Silves City, squinting his eyes slightly, but his nose twitched.
He was wearing a robe that alternated between black and white, with a special emerald green brooch on his chest.
People passing by were wary and walked around in circles, some even secretly quickened their pace.
Unfortunately, Xiao Xian only had a faint breeze lingering on his body.
Pass by him easily.
Get out of the city smoothly.
After Xiao Xian perfected his second soul skill, the bright light shield, he became too familiar with these little tricks.
A level 40 dog wants to rob his fellow thieves and steal their whale glue. Is it possible?
Xiao Xian quickly left Silves City, but he remembered the faces of those nobles firmly in his heart.
"..."
That night, King Silvester's castle was bustling with activity.
The next day, wanted posters were posted throughout the kingdom.
The picture on the wanted poster was of a young man in a black robe.
Unfortunately, only half of the face is shown, and it is not clear.
Below, it says: The reward is 10,000 gold soul coins, regardless of life or death.
But this has nothing to do with Xiao Xian.
At this time, he had already left the border of the Kingdom of Silves and entered the edge of the imperial capital of the Tiandou Empire.
Two days later.
Tiandou Empire, fifty kilometers outside the Sunset Forest.
In a small town of soul masters, a young man quietly walked into the town.
