Chapter 288 Amethyst Pavilion
"I'm bored, General Xia, can you go out with me?"
Fengxi Tower, the largest restaurant in the Mengsha Empire. Ye Rong took General Xia's wrist with a "begging" expression. The three of them have been in Yanjing City for two days. Except for patiently waiting for Wu Tianbo River to come back, they have been resting in the guest room of the restaurant.
Ye Xuan is mature and steady, but he doesn't care. Jiang Xia is hiding in the room to study the spirit of wind and water. In this way, he directly suffocated Ye Rong. After dinner, he kept quarreling and wanted to take Xia out to play.
"Hmm! OK." Jiang Xia didn't think much about it and readily agreed.
Ye Rong's eyes suddenly lit up, full of surprise, took General Xia's arm, and then said to Ye Xuan, "Dad, let's go!"
"Ha ha." Ye Xuan smiled and showed a little pity in his eyes. "I won't go. You two go!"
"Why?"
"It's been two days. The dean and the teacher should be back. I'll wait for him here."
"Oh!" Ye Rong mischieously stuck out her tongue and said, "Dad, then we'll go out to play. I'll bring you a gift when we come back, hee hee."
As soon as the words fell, Ye Rong couldn't wait to pull Xia out of the Fengxi Tower. Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile and let out a meaningful sigh...
As soon as you go out of Fengxi Tower, you can see the Amethyst Pavilion, and the distance between the two is less than 200 meters. In the evening, Mengcha Yanjing was still full of lights and prosperity. The stalls on both sides of the street and the hawkers were busy with their lives.
The world is noisy, and Xia and Ye Rong are in the most prosperous street. At a glance, the disciples of the rich family, laughing, singing and dancing, are not like the country is in a period of war at all.
The front-line battle showed tension, and the backyard singing and dancing were flattened. Perhaps they will only know the horror of the war at the moment of national subjugation. There are some war situations in the mouths of large and small restaurants and teahouses, storytellers, and those who raise their glasses of good deeds.
For example, where we defeated tens of thousands of enemy regiments, and for example, the enemy's troops invaded a small town on our side, how many residents were brutally slaughtered, and so on. Under the recitation of ordinary people in the streets and alleys, General Xia remembered a general named Meng Tao.
It is said that Meng Tao only led 10,000 soldiers and horses, and killed 20,000 horses of the Black Jade Empire and fled. As a result, the soldiers of the Mengsha Empire were shocked and won a series of victories.
"I don't know how many people will die in a battle?" Xia muttered softly. It was just imagination that tens of thousands of people held blades and gathered together to fight. Blood stained the sky and corpses were everywhere. That kind of scene was estimated to be no less than hell on earth.
"Jing Xia, what are you thinking about?"
"Hmm! It's nothing."
Ye Rong pulled Xia's thoughts back in one sentence, jumped with her little feet, clapped her hands, pointed to a magnificent building directly in front of her and said, "It's the Amethyst Pavilion, General Xia, let's go to the Amethyst Pavilion."
"Well!" Jiang Xia was stunned and remembered that on the first day he came, the guard at the door said that the Amethyst Pavilion was the largest treasure trading place in the Mengsha Empire. Before he could say anything more, Ye Rong ran in excitedly.
"Ye," Xia smiled helplessly, and then walked into the Amethyst Pavilion. As soon as he entered, he thought of the treasure hunting house in Shixi City. There are one counter after another in the wide place, and there is a dazzling baby on the counter. Compared with the treasure hunt, it looks more gorgeous here.
The jade floor tiles are as clean as washing, and the young masters and young masters of the nobles and young masters in gorgeous clothes wander around looking for their favorite treasures. Jiang Xia found Ye Rong in the crowd not far away.
At this time, she was standing in front of a booth of precious jewelry, happily trying on all kinds of beautiful things. He raised Xia Jun's eyebrows and did not walk to Ye Rong's side, but looked around to see if there was anything he like.
"Crystal?" When Jiang Xia's eyes lit up, he found that there were more than a dozen red and a few blue power crystals on a relatively cold counter not far away.
This is the second time that Jinxia saw the power crystal. The last time was in the Jin family in Xizhou. When Jin Kun started the family transmission array for himself, he used the crystal to transmit energy.
For crystals, Xia doesn't have much concept, but knows that warriors can absorb the power to improve their own strength, as well as the hierarchy of crystals. From low to high, yellow, orange, red, blue, black, gold and the highest purple.
Out of curiosity, Xia Mai walked to the counter with crystals. Perhaps because there was no business, the middle-aged man selling crystals was dozing on the counter. He heard someone approaching in a daze. He gently raised his eyelids and looked at Jianxia and said lightly, "Do you want power crystals?" If you buy too much, I can give you a discount.
"Hmm! Excuse me, are there only red and blue ones? Jiang Xia said politely.
The middle-aged man's body suddenly trembled, and his drowsiness seemed to wake up most of it. Looking at the beautiful teenager in front of him, he nodded confusedly, "Yes." Then he took out two black power crystals from the storage ring.
Xia was slightly surprised. From the black crystal, he could clearly feel the faint wave of power. Surprised, he quickly calmed down and continued to ask, "Is there only black? Is there anything at a higher level?
"Do you still think it's too low?" The middle-aged man frowned, and his eyes gushed out a little doubt. Seeing that he was not joking, he saw that he was not joking. Then in the palm of his hand, a golden light flashed, and a golden crystal appeared in front of him.
"This is the best piece on me. If you want it, you don't have to bargain for 10 million gold coins."
"What?" This time, it's time for Xia to grow up in surprise. She couldn't speak. Ten million gold coins, did she hear it wrong?
The middle-aged man saw the change of Xia's expression in his eyes, and a contemptuous smile flashed on his face. "Little brother, it's not the eldest brother. I'm black-hearted. Ten million is still cheap for you. If you get it at the auction and sell it, you have to add at least three or four million gold coins, but they have to draw a 10% handling fee. I I don't want to be troublesome."
Ten million gold coins were still cheap for himself. He couldn't help twitching the corners of Xia's eyes and couldn't help asking, "How much is the highest-level purple crystal?"
"It's not less than 20 million." The man casually replied, "Three million in black, one million in blue, and the worst yellow also ten thousand gold coins."
Xia was so shocked that his mouth was growing. Looking back on the crystals consumed by Jin Kun for his own convetomic, there were three or four million gold coins.
"Hehe, the little brother doesn't seem to know much about crystals!" The middle-aged man had an inexplicable smile on his face.
"Well, please give me some advice."
"All right, there is no one at the moment. Let me explain it to you. Power crystal power contains power that can be absorbed by people to accelerate the improvement of strength. In addition, you can use them to stimulate some strange formations or something.
"Hmm." Jiang Xia nodded, indicating that he was listening carefully.
"The more advanced the crystals are, the more powerful they are. Those below red are nothing. What the strong above the king of Wu need are crystals above the red. When many later martial arts kings break through the martial arts emperor, they will use the help of power crystals, which can improve the success rate.
"Really?" Xia was overjoyed.
"Of course it's true." The middle-aged man smiled secretly, and the contempt in his eyes appeared again. "Under the premise of improving the success rate, there must be enough power crystals. For example, when the later King of Wu arrives at Emperor Wu, he also needs at least a hundred golden crystals and more than 20 purple crystals."
Jiang Xia was a little dumbfounded. This pen is really big enough. I'm afraid that no one in the Mengsha Empire, except for the royal family, can take out a hundred golden crystals and twenty purple crystals. You know, even the Jin family, a first-class family in Xizhou, has only less than 50 purple crystals.
Looking at the dull appearance of General Xia, the middle-aged man was very proud. He wrote the only golden crystal tightly in the palm of his hand. "Little brother, you can't afford this golden crystal. I don't know this red one, you?"
Before the middle-aged man finished speaking, he interrupted Xia and said, "Brother, I don't have so many gold coins on me. Can I exchange a sixth-order piano skill for your golden crystal?"
"Ah?" This time, it was the turn of the middle-aged man to grow up in surprise. He had six-order piano skills and the lowest price of 10 million gold coins. Seeing that the other party was so relaxed, the man suddenly felt that he had seen it.
"How's it going? If you only need gold coins, there's nothing I can do. Jiang Xia glanced at the crystal in the other party's hand and said calmly. I have an emperor stone on my body, and I don't really want to buy that golden crystal. The reason why I am willing is that I just want to try what's special about it.
"All right." The middle-aged man agreed very readily. His right hand holding the crystal and his empty left hand reached out to General Xia. "I pay with one hand and deliver with the other hand, hey hey."
He smiled and took out a jade slip without any pain, ready to exchange with the other party...
"Little brother, can you give this crystal to your sister?"
A soft voice like water came from behind, stopping Xia's body and stopping the hand stretched out to the crystal. Looking back doubtfully, his mind was blank, and what he saw was a beautiful woman like a fairy.
The woman is about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, with curved willow eyebrows, big autumn water-like eyes with a little smile and elegant temperament. Not only can she compete with Lan Meng and Yaoer in appearance, but also the feeling of gentleness like water makes Xia look a little dazed.
The woman was not angry with Xia's rudeness. Her red lips raised a trace of curvature and smiled softly, "Sister needs this crystal more. Can you give it to me?"
