Servant of the Otherworldly Pharmacopoeia
Chapter 33 Market
At noon, I still ate a piece of boiled meat at the manor. Xu Jiu couldn't finish eating one or two catties of meat. After consulting the kitchen staff, he wrapped it in oil skin and prepared to take it back.
As usual, he had to say goodbye to Qing Kong first, Qing Kong asked his little apprentice to give him a small bag of things, when Xu Jiu opened it, it turned out to be five copper coins!
"This, this is?"
"Your salary is ten copper coins, which have been paid to you before, and these five copper coins are rewarded by the manor."
Xu Jiu didn't dare to answer: "So many?"
Qingkong smiled, with a calm expression on his face: "There are quite a few. The manor rewards talented people. You have been in the barren cliff for half a year, and you are the only one who can do it for such a long time. The butler is extra merciful. As long as you Honestly provide beast eggs to the manor, don't delay your business, make our adults happy, and naturally you will not lose your benefits."
Xu Jiu nodded repeatedly, feeling very happy.
This is like giving a pillow when you are sleepy!He was still short of money yesterday, but today he has five copper coins!This is other people's salary for a year!Five copper coins!How much can you buy!
Xu Jiu was thinking about the use of the money in his mind, when he saw the butler's personal attendant coming over with Pangpang in his arms.
Pangpang was changed into brightly colored clothes, and the child was still soundly asleep, the waiter explained: "Woke up for a while at noon, the housekeeper fed him milk, and fell asleep again after drinking and playing. "
Xu Jiu took it and pinched the child's nose: "So sleepy? Are you a little pig?"
The child frowned, turned his head, and continued to sleep with his mouth slightly open.
Xu Jiu carried him out and got into Ali's carriage.He was so happy that even the usually howling wind sounded a lot more gentle, and the copper bells on the corner of the car jingled and jingled, which was even more refreshing!
"Alige, I want to buy something at the fair."
Xu Jiu poked her head out holding the child.
"what are you looking for?"
"I want to buy a small Shata beast. When it grows up, it will be ridden by my family's cubs. It will be convenient to go to the market, and I will buy some winter leather or something."
Ali made fun of him: "Are you getting rich?"
Xu Jiu kept in mind Qing Kong's statement that he could not reveal the amount of the reward, and said in a low voice, "The butler rewarded me with a copper coin, and I still have a few more. I brought them and wanted to buy something."
"Yo, you're lucky Jiu!" Ali laughed and patted him on the shoulder, "Master Steward has always been famous for his generosity, the lowest he can sell is copper coins, you're lucky!"
Xu Jiu nodded sympathetically.
"Well, since you have money, let's go buy sanda beasts. But don't buy small ones. Small ones will take a long time to raise until they can drive a car, and they will eat a lot. Just buy a moderate one. Although it is expensive point, but you can ride it when you buy it back, except that you can’t set up a car, it’s the same as the big Shatamon!”
"How much is the Shata Beast that won't slip?"
"Generally, it is three copper coins. If the teeth are good, there will be thirty or forty chrome coins more. To buy such a large item, money is not the most important thing. The key is to be able to pick, even if you pay a little more, pick a one-in-a-million piece." Good sand towers are the truth, all the sand towers in our manor were picked by my father, look, how much money they ran!"
Xu Jiu nodded repeatedly, stroking the fiery red fur of the Shata Beast enviously.Sanda beasts are very similar to evolved horses, but they don't have the lightness and elegance of horses. Their fur is hard, with different colors, their limbs are thick and powerful, their hooves are bright golden yellow, and they have the effect of splitting sand and rocks when they step on the ground.Therefore, mountains, deep valleys, rocks and ravines are not obstacles to them. The better the Shata beast, the darker its coat color, and the higher the gold seal on its hooves.They are the most important means of transportation and load-bearing tools in the world, and poor people are proud to have a sanda beast.
Ali stored the carriage in the witch doctor’s house where the horses were stored last time. The little drug boy knew him very well, and pestered him with a smile to ask him to buy delicious food. Ali patted his head and laughed and agreed.The two walked to the horse market together.
The horse market is on Hengsan Street. Except for the main road in the middle, the markets here are all in the shape of a well. The name is originally the right of the manor owner, but their manor owner is obviously too lazy to spend energy on naming a few streets. For small things, the residents waved their hands and let the residents take it by themselves. After a long time of quarreling, they finally settled on the name "Horizontal One Horizontal Two Horizontal Three Streets and Vertical One Vertical Two Vertical Streets".
Although it does not reflect the elegant demeanor of the area under the jurisdiction of the aristocratic manor, this kind of naming undoubtedly greatly facilitates all kinds of civilians who cannot read the characters. The name "Lige Tasha Fengpo Street" is obviously not as easy to identify as the first horizontal street. .
The bustle of each neighborhood varies. The busiest one is the one next to the main road, which mainly sells fabrics, accessories, gold, silver and jade wares. The next busiest street is the street selling food. Large pieces are placed there, either raw or cooked, and of course cooked is just cooked.Perhaps it is the custom and tradition caused by the lack of water. People here advocate eating raw meat. Among the poor, young men eat raw meat is a symbol of bravery. Only women, children and old people with bad teeth eat cooked food. Of course, they also eat it in the manor. Cooked food, but that's why nobles pay attention to it.The residents here are convinced that their manor owner is such a tall, mighty, elegant and elegant nobleman.
So it's not unusual for Ba to bring Xu Jiu to look for sanda beasts in the street where food is sold.
At the same time, live animals are sold here, the good ones will be picked away, and the crooked melons and dates will be sold to diners to take home to eat. After all, freshly killed meat is fresh.
The more people walk in the street, the more people there are, and there are more stalls. Everyone wears less, people are crowded, all kinds of food are mixed together, and the whole street is filled with an indescribable smell when it is steamed by the sun.
Ali was attracted by a beautiful red fox, and his eyes were glued to it all the time, and there was someone selling sanda beasts next to him. He said to Xu Jiu in a loud voice: "The fur color of this fox is so beautiful! Shata beasts, you look at them one by one, choose slowly, tell me which one you like, and I will give you a reference."
Xu Jiu hugged the child and was squeezed crookedly: "Brother Ali, won't you accompany me?"
Ali moved his eyes away from the little beast, and followed Xu Jiu with a big sigh: "My father has never wanted me to come here. Every time I come here, I can't walk. Look at how cute these little guys are!"
Xu Jiu: "..."
Surrounded by a group of all kinds of little monsters, even a small fox is as big as an adult Samoyed, majestic and well-developed limbs, I really can't see how cute it is, Xu Jiu is only 1.8 meters tall The height of the foal.
Ali is fascinated by a little monster again.
Xu Jiu didn't care about him, and just browsed the sanda beasts by himself.
The semi-adult Shata's skin has not become so rough, and the fur may be dark or light showing a fine color. Xu Jiu remembered Ali's words and only looked at those with dark fur and high hoof prints.
There were people coming and going around, and many people also came to buy Shata Beasts. They bargained and laughed around Xu Jiu, and made jokes with the seller, and the seller stopped him from introducing his livestock when he saw Xu Jiu's ignorant appearance. .Xu Jiu staggered from being pulled. He was still holding a child, and his center of gravity was unstable. He bumped into the person beside him, and the person grabbed him fiercely: "You are looking for death, kid!"
The opponent was so strong that Xu Jiu was caught off guard and slammed his elbow on the stone slab, and was pressed to his knees on the ground.When you look up, you can see the black stone-like skin, large and small scars, and then look up, and you will see a fierce face, and a hungry wolf-like eye, and the other eye socket is just a black hole!
Xu Jiu was so frightened that he couldn't move because he was suppressed by the other party: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
"Didn't it be intentional? I'll save your life today to hear if it was intentional!"
After speaking, he picked up Xu Jiu and threw it against the wall!
"One-eyed fourth child, don't bully me too much!" Suddenly, Xu Jiu shouted loudly, and Xu Jiu was quickly pulled away in an instant, his back almost hit the wall, and the painful tailbone was about to break.
"Quick-legged leopard, it's you again!" When the brain was buzzing, there was a loud roar immediately behind, and the crowd broke into a commotion and screamed to separate!
The one-eyed fourth child is catching up!
Xu Jiu hasn't figured out the situation yet, one second he was still thinking about how to live, how to buy a beautiful little sand tower for his fat fat, and the next second his life was hanging by a thread, being carried upside down and running away at high speed !
His face was pale, his veins were bulging, and he held Pangpang tightly in his hands, for fear that the child would fall if he shook his hands.Fatty woke up from this strong squeeze, feeling uncomfortable for a while, and couldn't figure out the situation.
"Fat, fat, don't be afraid!" The person carrying Xu Jiu jumped up and down the messy street, leaping over the crowds and low walls with his impressive jumping ability, screaming and shouting everywhere he went, and the people chasing them There are more and more people.
The eyes of the two were out of focus, and Pangpang stretched out his hand to hug Xu Jiu's neck.
"Don't move!" Xu Jiu shouted nervously, he couldn't keep his balance, all the strength of his whole body was on his hands, if the child moved again, he was afraid that Pangpang would fall off!
Pang Pang and him face to face, his face was reddened by Xu Jiu, looking very uncomfortable, but Xu Jiu dare not let go!
"Be good, bear with it..." Xu Jiu hugged the child tightly with both hands like iron bands, and a group of desperadoes on the opposite side were getting closer and closer to them!
As the people carrying the two of them ran quickly, they left the bustling and restless streets and began to shuttle through the dirty and long alleys.The surroundings became quiet, and it seemed that the shouting from behind was getting closer, the smoke and dust kicked up by a group of people was violently rushing, and the panting/breathing of the people below became more intense.
This man can't run anymore...
There was a roar of gold and stone in Xu Jiu's mind. Looking at the devouring eyes of the one-eyed fourth brother in front of him, he lost all thoughts for a moment. He calmly said: "Brother, please let me go and take my child away. Please tell me Give it to Ali at Dutu Manor."
Xu Jiu realized that he didn't have any close friends in this world when he was alone.
The person who carried him didn't speak, but ran heavily.
The alley is coming to an end again, the high wall is still a high wall, and the fast-legged leopard leaps up!He kicked hard on the wall a foot below the top of the wall, but he didn't get over it, and fell down!
Seeing him deflated, behind him was a group of insolent laughing.
"You take my child away!" Xu Jiu turned around with all her strength, jumped down, thrust the child into someone's hand, and gave that person a decisive look.
He was a strange man like a black tower, his face was extremely unrecognizable, he was tall and slender, which made him extremely fast.
The man said in a low voice, "That won't work, they will torture you to death if you are left behind."
"I have a solution! You go!"
Xu Jiu was anxious to let that person go, he still had room, he could go in and hide if he couldn't beat him, but this person brought Pangpang here, he had to fight with his life!
"What can you do, I can't leave you behind." The man said putting down the child, took two sticks from the broken room next to him, and threw one to Xu Jiu.
There were six or seven of the one-eyed old four's group, and they all stopped on the opposite side, holding bright sharp weapons in their hands.He smiled like a bloodthirsty vicious dog, stepped forward, pointed at Xu Jiu and Kuaileg Leopard: "Today is your death day!"
As usual, he had to say goodbye to Qing Kong first, Qing Kong asked his little apprentice to give him a small bag of things, when Xu Jiu opened it, it turned out to be five copper coins!
"This, this is?"
"Your salary is ten copper coins, which have been paid to you before, and these five copper coins are rewarded by the manor."

Xu Jiu nodded repeatedly, feeling very happy.
This is like giving a pillow when you are sleepy!He was still short of money yesterday, but today he has five copper coins!This is other people's salary for a year!Five copper coins!How much can you buy!

Pangpang was changed into brightly colored clothes, and the child was still soundly asleep, the waiter explained: "Woke up for a while at noon, the housekeeper fed him milk, and fell asleep again after drinking and playing. "
Xu Jiu took it and pinched the child's nose: "So sleepy? Are you a little pig?"
The child frowned, turned his head, and continued to sleep with his mouth slightly open.
