Chapter 573: Trading Market
Kurt looked at Vincent and asked curiously, “Mr. Vincent, what are we going to do next?”
Vincent said, “Since we have come to a brand-new world, then we have to see what materials are abundant here and in the surrounding worlds. The auction house and trading market can definitely help us to ascertain those materials!”
Kurt nodded and said with a face full of admiration, “As expected of Mr. Vincent, you can always think of everything!”
Vincent shook his head and added, “Of course, the more important reason is that we have just received benefits from Charlie. We are only staying in this world for a short while. We will not live here forever, so we can’t just keep these red crystals in our hands. The most cost-effective way is to exchange them for the materials that we need as soon as possible!”
Faced with Vincent, who looked like a profiteer, Kurt just nodded silently. He studied Vincent’s words seriously as if they were the golden rule.
The Wanderers Association was located in the commoner district of the Inn world. This was because the living atmosphere there was more in line with the habits of most wanderers. However, the auction house and trading market on the other hand was located in the most prosperous area of the Inn. The two could be said to be in opposite directions.
Vincent and Kurt were the first to arrive at the trading market.
The trading market was located in the central area of the Inn. There were no gorgeous shops or hawkers shouting. There were only countless figures sitting on the ground, wearing wide cloaks that covered their faces.
These creatures did not seem to be willing to reveal their identities. Some of them had two or three items placed in front of them, while some had a signboard that marked the items that they wanted to sell. Those who were interested would take the initiative to come forward.
Vincent could not help but think of the first floor of Hell’s Rose back in Elf World. Back then, Dave had also introduced to Vincent the inner thoughts of these sellers.
The most likely reason why these creatures chose to trade this way was that their items were not obtained legally. In order to avoid getting into trouble, they chose not to show their identities.
Another possibility was that these creatures had to protect their identities as they have taken their family or organization’s assets to sell. They naturally did not want to expose themselves.
Vincent quickly blended into the atmosphere of the trading market. He brought Kurt and walked silently in front of the many stalls. Occasionally, they would stop and observe. They then shook their heads and continued strolling.
Kurt followed behind Vincent and could not help but ask curiously, “Mr. Vincent, we have been strolling for so long. Don’t you want to buy something?”
Vincent sighed in disappointment, “The things sold here are all unpresentable materials and equipment. They are of no use to us at all. Even if we are in a hurry to spend money, we can’t spend it on this rubbish!”
There was a tall and sturdy seller standing next to Vincent. His entire body was covered by his huge bamboo hat. He heard Vincent’s comments and could not help but say, “Kid, don’t look down on the trading market. It’s not that there are no high-grade goods here. It all depends on whether you have the ability to take out enough red crystals!”
Vincent glanced at the stall next to him with curiosity. He saw a rather crude-looking sign with a row of crooked words written on it. They were all some of the most common low-grade materials.
However, Vincent had a premonition that this seller in front of him might have some treasures that were worth buying.
Vincent squatted in front of the stall and said indifferently, “I have plenty of red crystals. It all depends on whether you have anything that can sway me! If it’s just like the rubbish written on the sign, then you’ll only disappoint me!”
The burly figure pushed the sign away and took out a fiery red bottle from his bosom. He placed it in front of Vincent and said confidently, “I have good stuff, but I’ll have to see if you have the eye to recognize it!”
After hearing the other party’s childish provocation, Vincent shook his head helplessly. He looked at the bottle and could not help but frown. He sighed softly, “The Fire Dragon’s blood! But it doesn’t look like it’s a full bottle. You probably only got a few drops, right? This thing can indeed be considered a treasure, but unfortunately, I don’t need it!”
When the burly figure saw that Vincent could actually tell what was in the bottle, he did not react immediately. After being stunned for a moment, he said, “To be able to recognize the fire dragon’s blood, it’s no big deal! You definitely don’t have enough red crystals, that’s why you said that on purpose!”
Vincent smiled and took out a bottle from his storage ring.
In an instant, the burly figure was shocked. He leaned back subconsciously.
The burly figure asked nervously, “What is this thing?”
Vincent casually weighed the bottle in his hand and said with a proud face, “This is a whole bottle of the Fire Dragon Race’s blood, and I still have a lot of it!”
The burly figure shook his head and said in disbelief, “Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! Every drop of the dragon’s blood is very precious, and no dragon is willing to take out more than three drops of blood. Where did you get this blood?”
Vincent immediately became very interested. This was because he could guessed the identity of this burly figure in front of him.
Vincent sized up the burly figure in front of him and teased with a smile, “I didn’t expect to see a Dragon Race material merchant here! But looking at the way you set up your stall, you should be the shabbiest Dragon Race material merchant that I’ve ever seen!”
Just from his reaction, Vincent had already guessed that not only was he a material merchant, but he had also met a very stingy dragon who was good at lying. That was why he had received so little material and treated them as treasures.
The burly figure was not a fool. After hearing Vincent expose his identity, he deliberately lowered his voice and asked, “So, you are also a Dragon Race material merchant?”
Vincent did not answer. He only nodded slightly.
The burly figure’s breathing immediately increased. He carefully asked, “Then, may I ask if you killed a dragon? Otherwise, how could you get so much dragon blood?”
Vincent pursed his lips and tried his best not to laugh. He nodded seriously and said, “That’s right! The dragon I knew was too stingy, so I killed him in a fit of anger. That’s why I managed to obtain so much dragon blood!”
When the burly figure heard that, he quickly looked around. He took the initiative to lean in front of Vincent and took out a crystal clear ball from his pocket. He asked in a mysterious tone, “Our experiences are the same! The dragon I met was too stingy, so I stole his dragon egg in a fit of anger.. I wonder if you are interested?”
