Chapter 178 The New "Fat Sheep" In the Black Market

Every city has its own black market. Most of the black markets are within the controllable range of the city hall. Only when they are under their noses can they be assured. At the same time, why not stop the black market? Because it is impossible to completely ban the black market, once the suppression is severe, it will really go underground. That's when the trouble begins. Without supervision, anything can happen.

The Drake City Black Market is not a particularly remote place in the East District. It is usually a depressing commercial street that seems to be ordinary. It is closed every night at night, at least it seems to the outside world. However, there are three to four dual-aisle shops outside the closed block gates that can pass through. Each shop has middle and senior knights and middle and senior soldiers sitting in town, and some secret managers are specially responsible for taking care of it.

To enter here, you need an acquaintance to lead the way. The first time you enter, you need to pay five gold coins, and then you get a small sign. In the future, you only need one gold coin each time you hold this small sign. The real regular customers will upgrade their identity cards, and finally become a A silver coin can pass. However, the real relationship households can be unimpeded, and the Jasmine high-level knight is such an existence.

He swaggered into the half-open store door, and slapped the store owner who was pretending to be asleep. This was a mid-level soldier in his 40s and 50s, a retired city defense army, "Yo, Bloody Rose-sama hasn't been to the store for a long time. Is your old man here today?"

"What are you doing with so much nonsense? This kid is a new member of our Master's House, codenamed Scholar. He will get an ID card and pass a silver coin at a time." The senior knight Jasmine knew very well the virtues of their group. The latter shrugged helplessly, looked at the little guy who was fully armed from head to toe, nodded slightly and quickly recorded his basic characteristics, and then took out a small black sign the size of a coin, but the back of the sign had two marks on it. Silver stripes.

"Brighten your eyes after entering. There are good things inside, but you can't see it without a little eyesight. You have to learn how to bargain. There are a lot of old black people inside. Don't be too skilled at tricking people." Jasmine senior knight also I have a headache. I have been tricked before, but I used my fist to get back to the scene afterwards. I can use this method. After all, I have the Kendall family as the backing and I have this capital, but Xiaowei can't. Wizards are largely undisclosed. A large part of the black market is just ordinary warriors, hunters, thieves and the like, and there are not many dark characters hidden deep inside.

"Don't worry, eldest sister, I won't let the scholar brothers suffer." The black businessman swore to slap his chest, but got a vicious expression from Jasmine: "Back then, you brought the animal trainer and singer with you. That's what I said when I came with Catwoman."

The black businessman, who knew he was wrong, suddenly wilted. Looking at the left and right, he finally pulled Xiaowei around the two doors and came to a noisy street. There were two-story buildings all around, but the lights were relatively low. Only It is one meter high, so that the light cannot be transmitted as much as possible, but it does not affect the business here. The whole street is not very long, but it is a few hundred meters. There are many shops around, but most of them are small small ones that can be seen everywhere on the ground. stall.

A piece of animal skin or a piece of cloth, with more or less strange things on it, no one shouted loudly, everyone looked at the stall lazily, and there were already many people bargaining around. There are relatively few people entering the store. Most Taobao people like roadside stalls. Although they are more likely to lose money, they can make a lot of money once they find treasures. Although there are many genuine items in the store, the price Also very high.

"Yo, black businessman, long time no see, how many good things have you collected this time?" A middle-aged fat man with a big belly was just about to leave, and when he saw the black businessman, he couldn't help but came up to say hello, "This is a very good-natured man. Ah, the newcomer you introduced?" He blinked at the black businessman and made a hidden gesture.

The black businessman was so angry that he almost wanted to go up and beat him, "Am I the kind of person who likes to cheat on my friends? This is a real expert appraisal expert.

scholar. Scholar brothers are not ordinary people. The talented students of Drake Advanced Institute are very good at ancient writing and identification. "The black businessman didn't pay attention to the true identity of the scholar, but he also had a little guess, so when he said this casually, Xiao Wei didn't refute, but smiled and nodded at the fat man.

"Hey, it turns out to be a professional, no wonder." Fatty blinked his eyes slyly, but he was quite disdainful in his heart, a talented student of Drake Advanced Institute? Haha, are there still a few experts from the so-called academy department who have been pitted here?

Fatty, who originally planned to leave, immediately turned around and went back to find a few familiar stalls after the black businessman took Xiao Wei for a walk, and spread the news that the black businessman brought a newcomer here, and this newcomer was Derek. The so-called high-caliber students of the advanced colleges are passed on from ten to ten, and the entire black market immediately knows that black merchants have brought fat sheep again, but this time I don't know who will benefit.

After taking Xiaoweier to two random stalls, he quietly pointed out the fakes inside, and introduced some commonly used counterfeiting techniques and identification methods. The "antiques" that Xiaoweier failed were laid out one by one, and someone immediately surrounded Xiaoweier, excluding Xiaoweier.

These bastards really think they are "fat sheep" with no eyeballs! Xiao Weier saw that this group of people separated himself from the black businessmen intentionally or unintentionally. How could he not know what this group of bastards were doing, but he was a cheater, so just wait for me to find out.

The three or five stalls that I passed by just now have determined that there is nothing worth buying, except for the fake ones, which are ordinary things, and there is no extraordinary item. Xiaowei then walked slowly and looked at it, making up his mind to see the other end from one end. , and then turn back and look at the other side, trying to take down all the things that you fancy as soon as possible.

"Yo, brother, you're new here, you look a little rude." A jerk stall owner actually pretended not to know him, and looked very familiar like he was selling a "magic stone" without magic power, "This is a Good things that only superhumans can use, good treasures that are forbidden to be traded by the church."

"I'm very sorry, I'm a devout believer and won't touch taboos." Xiao Weier didn't even need to open the eyes of appraisal to know that 90% of the things here are fake, and the traces of old age are too obvious. That "magic stone", huh, it's just an ordinary fluorite. It came from the deep mountains of Mabster County. Sell ​​gold coins to yourself.

MMP, none of the people who come here to pan for gold truly believe in the gods. Even if they are believers, they are also believers of the God of Wealth, and the God of Wealth does not prohibit magic stones, and even regards them as an important part of wealth. This bastard definitely sees something! Watching Xiao Weier go away and pick and choose at the booth next door, he couldn't help but let out a swear word.

"The wood used for wood carving is definitely not red sandalwood. You look at the texture itself, and you are a master-level handwriting? Haha, have you seen this crack? It's not a natural occurrence, but because of excessive force. It is obviously the most common mistake a novice makes, unless the master was drunk when he was carving." Xiaowei pointed to a palm-sized wood carving on the ground and complained, "You wouldn't want to tell me that this wood carving is also Antiques, right? Brand new antiques buried in the ground for hundreds of thousands of years without decay?"

The stall owner didn't say a word, just said hello, and then said that he was an antique stall, and then from the rusty dagger to the tea bowl with two holes, and finally even the wood carvings that he made up were also approved. . After saying that he was tired, he actually took out a bag of water from his backpack, took a sip and continued to complain about the poor cheating method of the stall owner.

"Well, the cracks on the wood carving were actually made by myself. This work is really a master work. You can see the quality, the workmanship, and the signature. It's like a fake!" The stall owner saw This wood carving of unknown origin was the least complained about in my hands, so I started to sell it vigorously.

"Really?" Xiaowei doubted this promise, and the stall owner nodded: "If this is not a wood carving, I will definitely replace it."

A group of people around raised their middle fingers at the same time. It looks like a wood carving. You bastard is right, but can ordinary wood carvings be compared with antique wood carvings?

"Then let's do it at the price of the woodcarving, five copper coins." Xiao Wei's asking price made the stall owner almost fall to the ground, "Young man, you are too dark, the price I receive is more than that. "

"But you didn't have this scar when you received the goods. Now if you have this scar, you will definitely have to discount the price." Xiaowei pointed to the crack that the stall owner admitted was his own mistake. The latter felt like he swallowed it. It was as uncomfortable as a fly, please, because of this rift, I was fooled into taking out a few more silver coins.

"Two gold coins, it can't be any less." The stall owner shouted loudly: "This is an antique, the lines and carving techniques on it are so simple, they must be antiques, even ordinary wood carvings are more than five copper coins. ."

"Then add two more copper coins?" Xiaowei tentatively increased the price.

"Brother, you are too dark. Can our currency unit be changed? Copper coins are not welcome here, at least they must be silver coins." The stall owner is helpless, is this really a fat sheep?

"One silver coin." Xiaoweier raised a finger, and the stall owner shook his head violently: "Eight, no, nine silver coins, little brother, you must at least leave me a little profit margin, according to you. If I do this, my brother, I will definitely pay for it."

After ten minutes of friendly negotiation, the two finally settled the deal at the price of six silver coins and five copper coins, and then Xiaowei told the stall owner: In fact, this scar is not irreparable, it just needs a little special means, using special gum can be used. The scar should be faded as much as possible, and then it can be sold for two gold coins.

"Che, do you really think that I don't know that it can be repaired? But the cost of repairing is at least two gold coins. For an ordinary broken wood carving, if you spend such a big price, you will definitely die. It took so much effort to After earning two silver and one copper, it is getting more and more difficult to do business now." The stall owner sighed and continued to look at the stall, and the first business of the newcomers brought by the black businessman was also reported, and everyone began to analyze this guy. In the end is good or not, how to take out more money from him.
