Chapter 8 Trade in the City
The Volo River is the largest tributary of the St. Riding River, the longest river in the north of the Clay Kingdom, and it is itself a river formed by the convergence of countless mountain streams.

Therefore, the further downstream, the more abundant the water source and the wider the river surface.The terrain has gradually changed from mountains to plains.

Lomo and George drove the carriage, along the way, the villages and fields became more and more, and the river became lively.

Boats gradually appeared on the river, and there were bustling trading piers along the river.

Sitting in the carriage, Luomo looked at the trackers working hard on the river beach in the distance, as well as the carriages and pedestrians passing by on the avenue along the river, feeling like a country boy entering the city.

'There are still a lot of people in the west of the valley, and there are no ghosts around my manor except wild animals. ' Lomo thought secretly.

At this time, a semi-open carriage passed by, and a pretty girl in a purple tube top dress and flower ornaments sat at the rear of the carriage, humming a ditty cheerfully.

Her fair shoulders were bare, and her slender legs were swinging in black stockings.George stared at it so fixedly that he almost drove the carriage into the grass beside the road.

"George, watch the road!" Luo Mo quickly pulled the rein for him and reminded.

"Yes, yes." George came back to his senses and stabilized the carriage.

He glanced reluctantly at the girl who had gone away, and said, "Master, this woman in the west is too beautiful. If you can hug her and sleep, it will be worth dying for."

"Lick back the hala on your lips, and don't throw me on me." Luomo glanced at him and said, "After entering the city, don't stare at the well-dressed girls unscrupulously. Those are from noble families. Women, it's easy to piss them off."

"Master, I know this." George patted his chest and said, "Father has told me to lower my eyebrows and be pleasing to the eye after entering the city, don't speak loudly, and don't cause trouble for Master."

"Yeah." Luo Mo nodded with satisfaction.He didn't want to conflict with anyone, and he was powerless to conflict with them.

I heard that Marquis Arnold of Black Rock City is a genuine third-level French knight and the most powerful person in the entire Volo Valley.

I am only an entry-level cavalry now, not even a trainee cavalry. Compared with him, I am four levels behind.Once matched, there is no chance of winning.

The carriage carried two people and the corpses of two owlbeasts, and its speed was limited.The two walked until night, slept in the field, and finally arrived at Black Rock City the next morning.

This is the most prosperous place in the entire Volo River Valley. The solid and thick city walls, the wide and clean stone roads outside the city, and the towering towers around it all give people a huge shock.

Lomo looked at these majestic buildings and thought that without the help of cranes and excavators, these boulders could never be stacked by manpower, and should be the result of magic.

In this world, magic is the primary productive force.

George became extremely honest at this moment, with a look of shrinking, he drove the carriage and lined up to the main entrance.

The captain of the city gate beckoned to stop the carriage, and asked in a blunt tone, "Where did you come from? What are you doing?"

"Sardin Manor, you are here to sell goods in the city, sir." George nodded and bowed.

"Go, go, serfs are not allowed to enter the city to trade." The guard captain waved his hand and said impatiently.

"This is our Lord Sardin, he is not a serf." George quickly pointed his palm at Lomo and explained.

The captain of the guard looked at Luo Mo up and down. Generally, lords or nobles would wear decent robes and bring precious jewelry when entering the city.And Luomo was wearing leather armor for hunting, and he didn't look like a lord at all.

However, he carried a long strip wrapped in linen on his back, which looked like a large sword used by a knight.

"You are Lord Sardin?" the captain of the guard asked suspiciously.

"Exactly." Luomo said, took out an obsidian token with the lord's logo from his arms, and handed it to the guard.

The captain of the guard took the token, looked at it for a long time, and finally believed in Luo Mo's identity.I thought to myself that this lord is really in a bad situation, and the clothes on his body are not as rich as one of his soldiers.

"Go in. Remember to take the carriageway." The captain of the guard returned the token to Luo Mo and pointed him in a direction.

"Thank you." Luomo nodded his thanks slightly, and then motioned for George to drive into the city.

There are a total of five markets in Black Rock City.And the magic market is in the mage area on the east side of the city.

The two wandered around the magic market for a long time, and finally found a warehouse that could receive magical beasts.

The signboard of the warehouse reads Witt's Magic House, and the store is very large.The heads of all kinds of wild beasts hang in the hall, which is quite shocking to look at.

Luomo was afraid that George would be timid and asked him to watch the carriage.He personally dragged two linen bags containing Moonkin corpses to the counter.

The teller glanced casually at Luo Mo's attire, and while recording something, he casually said, "Sir, do you have any magical wild animals to sell?"

With one owlbeast in each hand, Luomo slipped up and said, "How much are these two owlbeasts worth?"

Hearing the word owlbeast, the teller finally turned his gaze over, and asked in a deep voice, "Two owlbeasts?"

"Exactly." Lomo nodded.

The teller got up immediately, turned out from the counter, motioned for Luo Mo to put the bag on the ground, and then checked it.

After the inspection, the teller showed a happy expression on his face, and then hid the happy expression, frowning slightly and said: "This owl beast is not new, the magic power has dissipated."

"It was just killed yesterday, so it won't be stale." Luo Mo explained.

Just kidding, before he came, he used ice swordsmanship to freeze the owl beast's corpse.How could it not be fresh.

But the teller shook his head and still insisted: "It's been too long, the meat is worthless. I can only buy some internal organs and heads."

Seeing that the teller obviously wanted to lower the price, Luo Mo shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'll try another one."

With that said, Luomo rewrapped the owl beast and dragged it to leave.

"Sir, please wait a moment!"

Behind the teller, a voice suddenly sounded.

Luo Mo's eyes jumped over the figure of the teller and looked forward.

I saw a middle-aged man wearing a lake-green robe slowly walking over. He was wearing a mage's square hat, with a beautiful beard over his chest, and he had a very elegant demeanor.

"Oliver, your eyesight is terrible."

As he said that, he ignored the teller and strolled up to Luomo. He extended his right hand friendly and said with a smile, "Sir, my teller is not sensible. Please allow me to apologize and welcome to Witt's magic land." Home. My name is Rexxar William, and I'm the deputy store manager here."

"Lomo Sardin."

Luo Mo threw the owl beast to the ground, extended his right hand generously, and shook him.

Rexxar William looked at the owlbeasts on the ground, re-examined them, and said in a deep voice: "These two owlbeasts are top-grade, and they are worth at least 80 gold coins. I will pay 50 gold coins first, and they will be weighed and dissected." Finally, according to the quality of the Moonkin's viscera, I will give you the rest of the gold coins, do you think it's okay?"

Hearing the price, Luo Mo's heart skipped a beat.

In the Volo Valley, 20 silver coins can buy an ordinary serf. 80 silver coins can buy a young serf who is proficient in farming.

And 1 gold coin is equal to 100 silver coins.

In other words, these two owl beasts can buy almost all the farmers in their manor.

"This price is acceptable."

A faint smile finally appeared on Luo Mo's face.
