Chapter 196 Selling Skin
Yu'an City is still the same as when Al first came here, but this time there are a little more people, but there is less such a person like Yi Tian. Back here, Al sighed infinitely. If they hadn't come here, they wouldn't have been separated from Yi Tian. The bustling streets were full of voices, which made Xiu and Al, who had lived in the wild for a long time, very uncomfortable, while the seven Babu who followed them looked at everything around curiously.
Babu grew up in the mountains and has never left the mountain. How can they know that there is such a city outside the mountain? How can they have seen so many people and various buildings? Seeing so many novel things, the seven people involuntarily grew up, and their faces were full of that novel look. They are very familiar with the mountains, but they are still too strange to the point of complete ignorance.
At this time, all seven people were well dressed in clothes that were not much different from those of Yu'an City. As for the distinctive clothes they wore from the mountain, they were replaced as early as outside the city. The backs of the seven people were wrapped in a long black cloth, and the bread was exactly the tree spear they had been using. Originally, Xiu intended to let them throw away the tree spear outside the city, but the seven Babu were unwilling to throw away the tree spear in their hands, saying that it was their lives. They had no choice but to make them wrap these tree spears with black cloth.
When they entered the city, Xiu and Al repeatedly told the seven people not to mess around in the city and to put up with everything. Anyway, these guys are used to being wild in the mountains. If they are allowed to act randomly in the city, God knows how much trouble they will make. After entering the city, Xiu and Al walked one after another, always watching the movements of the seven people, so that they would not really do anything messy.
But fortunately, so far, these seven guys have not gone too far except curious about the novel things around them. Only then did the two of them gradually feel relieved.
"Where are we going next?" Xiu retreated to Al and asked in a low voice. The group walked in the wilderness for more than a month before they gradually found the right way back to Yu'an City, but after entering the city, they lost all their goals.
Al looked at the curious Seven people: "Take a night in the city first, and then go to our acquaintances tomorrow."
Xiu, who got the answer, was slightly stunned and thought that they had no acquaintances on this planet. After thinking about it carefully, he thought of the sharp wind outside the city. At the thought of the fierce wind, a smile appeared on his face. While Xiu was thinking nonsense, Al had already walked in one direction. Al has been to Yu'an City once, so he still knows more about some things here. At this time, he is familiar with the road and walks to a three-story building with black exterior walls painted black and no signs at all.
Xiu didn't know what this building was doing, but since Al went in without thinking about it, he had nothing to worry about. With several Babu, Xiu also drilled into the black building.
As soon as he entered the building, Xiu felt dark in front of him, and then a slightly dim light appeared in front of him, reflecting a small front hall. I looked up and down at the front hall, and there was no decoration except for the ornamental plants on both sides. There was a door on the left side of the front hall. Al stood in front of the door and looked back at the people who came in. Then he opened the door and drilled in.
Seeing Al enter the door, Xiu hurriedly took the seven Babu to catch up. As soon as he entered the door, Xiu smelled an extremely strange smell in the air. It is a strange and indescribable taste, mixed with rotten smell, sour sweat and strange potion smell. The strange and slightly choking smell made Xiu, who had just come in, sneezed fiercely.
The sudden sound of sneezing suddenly echoed in the originally quiet room. And those who had been hiding in the dark cast their eyes one after another, and their needle-like eyes made Xiu feel uncomfortable. He hurriedly followed Al's footsteps with Babu.
The room behind the door is very strangely arranged. A long corridor is in front of a counter, and the two sides of the channel are small compartments like a shop. The compartment is dark, except for a small display stand in front of the compartment with lights. There is a catalogue and photos on the display table, and there is a person sitting in the dark compartment.
When following Al through the long corridor, Xiu felt that those who were hiding in the dark were looking up and down at themselves. Al didn't show any discomfort. He walked straight to the counter and gently knocked on the table. Waking up an old man who was dozed off, Al said with a kind smile on his face, "I have some skins and bones that I want to sell. Can you make the decision?"
As if he was a little dissatisfied with being woken up, the old man stared at Al with a fierce smile and said angrily, "Do you want to sell animal skin and bones? Do you have any good goods?"
"I dare not say good goods. I'm just afraid you can't make the decision. Al still smiled and was not angry with the old man's attitude. After all, anyone will not be too happy to be woken up when they are asleep.
The old man stared at the ignorant young man in front of him. He had never seen such an arrogant guy. You should know that this is the largest acquisition house in Yu'an City. Most hunters will come here to sell animal skins and bones after hunting good beasts. As for the small compartments on the channel, they are rented to some hunters to sell their goods.
"Take a look at it first." As soon as the old man blew his beard, his face naturally showed a trace of arrogance.
Al shook her head helplessly. These people are really. Is it necessary for businessmen to treat guests in this way? He was also too lazy to be angry. He directly waved to Babu to come over and picked up a backpack behind the chin cloth. Al pulled out a intact animal skin from it. This animal skin is only two meters wide and nearly four meters long. The hair color is slightly gray, with beautiful patterns on it. The person who skinned the beast was a veteran, and even the face of the beast was peeled intact without any damage.
It goes without saying that such a perfect animal skin is worth it. As soon as the old man saw the animal skin, he immediately stopped breathing. He stared at the beast's head for a while, and then reached out to touch and pinch the animal skin. The posture was as serious as an antique connoisseur who was appreciating antiques, meticulous to the point of frightening.
After about half an hour, the old man finally withdrew his hand, stood straight and looked at Al, and said seriously, "How much of this kind of animal skin do you have?"
Al smiled confidently, and he had expected the old man's reaction. With a smile, Al did not answer and asked, "How much can you pay for this animal skin?"
Hearing Al's words, the old man did not answer, but wrote a string of numbers on a piece of paper. Unexpectedly, Al was not satisfied. He grabbed the pen in the old man's hand and immediately wrote down the number he wanted on it. Al's number obviously exceeded the old man's acceptable range. He grabbed another pen, drew the number above, and then wrote down the number he thought was reasonable. In short, the next situation is the price given by the old man. Al is not satisfied with the price given by Al. The old man is not satisfied with the price given by Al. The two scratched back and down on a piece of paper, and finally the whole paper was full of slow numbers, while Xiu on the side was stunned. Although Xiu came out early, he really never set foot in such a place, so he didn't know this way of bidding at all. However, Al ran a similar business when he was in an underground city, but he was familiar with it.
After a long time of scratching on the paper, Al and the old man finally got the same number. Then the two shook hands, saying that they could accept it.
The old man exhaled and looked at Al thinking that the young man was not simple, and the bidding method was so smart. After wiping the sweat on his head, the old man smiled with a very friendly smile and said, "How many of you have this kind of goods? I want it all at this price.
Ale suddenly smiled with an extremely strange smile on his face and took down the two backpacks behind him, the Rajik, the Babu clan, the young man who was good at using bows and arrows. Al opened the mouth of the backpack and shook it upside down. The neatly preserved animal skin fell out of the two backpacks.
A total of 50 animal skins, according to the price agreed between Al and the old man, is a large amount. When the old man saw the fifty skins on the table, his face, which was full of smile, suddenly twitched. He knew the price of these skins, but he only knew that he could not make a deal at such a price. Cold sweat and excitement appeared on the old man's face at the same time. He felt that his breathing was a little difficult. Then he looked at Al in front of him with a very difficult expression on his face and said in a hoarse and excited voice, "Sir, can you sit in the inner room for a while? I may not be able to make this business.
Al's face still had that strange smile, and he had also expected the old man's reaction. When the old man said this, Al nodded easily, which also laid a little foundation for his future life in Yu'an City.
As the old man entered the inner room, Al sat on a large sofa, and Xiu sat directly next to him. Instead, when the seven Babs saw Al and them sit down, they also found a seat. Poor people who have been living in the mountains since they were born and have never seen such a sofa. As soon as they sat on the sofa, they immediately fell into the sofa. The sudden feeling made them think that they had fallen into a trap and jumped up shouting and were about to grab their backs behind them. The tree spear stabbed those sofas.
Al can only stop them with a smile and briefly talk about the purpose of these things. Babu and others skeptically sat back on the sofa again. I have to say that these sofas were of excellent workmanship. Babu and others immediately fell in love with it after getting used to it. They twisted excitedly on it and made a happy sound from time to time, just like a child who had just got a new toy.
I ignored the seven Babu people who were full of novel mentality. Xiu looked at Al, who was next to him, and said, "What on earth do you want to do?" Since he came in, he hasn't understood what Al is doing. Although he has roughly guessed something, he is not sure whether his guess is accurate.
"Change money?" Al replied very simply. He sipping the drink just brought by the waiter with a smile. Bab seven were also curiously tasting a slightly sweet drink. These people had never tried such a thing except animal blood juice and water. After tasting it, they couldn't help pouring the whole drink in, and then they were stunned at the empty cup. They didn't know how to send another cup. Al couldn't see their greedy look and ordered a few more drinks for them.
But Xiu beside him was not in the mood to drink at all. He looked at Al and said, "I know you are changing money. But why do you want so much money?
As soon as the problem was solved, Al looked at him like an alien. He thought that this guy's head was usually very useful. Why did he get water in his head after worshiping the teacher? He even asked such a question. Al's face was full of strange expressions. He looked up and down carefully and then said, "Do you think there is no money in this world?" He really doesn't want to stimulate the repair, but this problem can't be made clear.
After Al said this, Xiu remembered that they had no money at all now, and they had to have money to live in the city. After living in the wild for so long, Xiu almost feels that there is no need to spend money to live in this world. His cheeks were slightly hot, and Xiu also knew that he had made a very low-level mistake, so he stopped talking and picked up the juice in the cup and drank it slowly.
The embarrassment did not last for a long time, and the old man followed a middle-aged man in. The old man respectfully introduced Al and his party to the middle-aged people, and then said to Al and others: "This is our stewary here. He can make the decision on this transaction."
stood up, and Al stretched out his right hand to shake hands with steward Wang and smiled, "Hello, steward Wang, I think this old gentleman has already told you about the transaction."
Sister Wang is a kind middle-aged man with a merchant's unique smile on his face, and his body naturally exudes a calm atmosphere. He looked at Al with a smile and said, "I don't know what to call you, sir? Let's sit down and talk about the transaction. With that, he sat opposite Al, still in a calm manner.
"You can call me Huang Yu." Al simply gave herself a pseudonym. Although there are no alliances here, who knows whether it is true or false. You should know that the alliance's sphere of influence is very large.
"I don't know what else you want to talk about trading?" Al knows very well that since the stew manager has appeared, there is still something to talk about.
"I don't know how many such animal skins Mr. Huang has. We want it all. The price is twice your price just now. Manager Wang was very happy, gave a price directly, and then threw the problem to Al.
With a look of embarrassment on his face, Al looked at Manager Wang and said, "We only have so many animal skins. As for the price, just follow our agreement. For no reason, such a big favor has been made. Although it is a business, the raised price is not an invisible favor there.
For Al's words, steward Wang obviously did not believe it. His eyes swept over the seven people of Bab intentionally or unintentionally. He saw that the seven people were carrying a bag behind them, obviously containing some good things. However, since the other party has no intention of selling, he can't force others to sell, which is not in line with the rules of their acquisition bank. Of course, if there is another situation, it is another matter.
"That's a pity. I have never bought such a good animal skin in this industry for so long. I thought Mr. Huang could have more goods. It seems that it's Wang who is too greedy. He showed a trace of disappointment on his face at the right time, and stewer Wang's acting skills were also perfect.
"I don't know if Mr. Huang wants to be now, or*?" Steward Wang no longer asked about the animal skin, nor did he say whether the price needed to change, so he directly cut into the final question.
"Give me an anonymous card, and you don't need to set a password." Al still had a faint smile on his face and was not moved by Mr. Wang's acting skills.
When I got Al's answer, someone came in with a tray, and there was a dark card on the huge tray. Stewer Wang handed the * to Al and said, "Mr. Huang, this is the card you want. If you still have such animal skins to take action in the future, I hope you won't forget us.
Al smiled and said, "That's natural." Then he casually stuffed the card on the table into the pocket of his coat. His performance was so careless that he didn't pay attention to that * at all.
"When things are done, it's time for us to leave. If there is any trouble in the future, please ask Wang to take more care of it. Al made a polite deal with stewer Wang and took a group out to the street.
Turning around a street corner, Al went to a self-service counter to check the amount inside. As he thought, in addition to the agreed amount, there was another sum of money. Looking at the extra numbers, Al sneered and said, "That steward Wang will bribe people, but it's a pity that he used the wrong place." Al will not take this favor from him. The value of the animal skins he took out completely exceeded the amount in *, but Al didn't bother to care about it.
"Let's go. Let's find a place to have a big meal and have a good sleep." Al shook the * in his hand, and he had the confidence to have money in his hand, and it would be much more convenient to act in the future.
