Mystery: I can change things in books

Chapter 29 The Underground Market
"Where is Kaspars Camlinen?" Chris asked.

The bartender was wiping the bar with a rag, and when he looked up, he saw a familiar face, so he tilted his head to the side: "No. [-] billiard room."

Chris didn't want to waste money, so he raised his wooden wine glass and drank the beer in one breath.

"belch--"

He covered his mouth and burped, then looked at Jason: "Will you come with me?"

"No, you go back quickly," Jason shook his wine glass and mouthed towards the boxing ring, "Another boxing match is about to begin."

Chris jogged to the billiard room No. [-] and knocked lightly on the door.

The wooden door was opened from the inside, and a middle-aged man stuck his head out: "Who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for Mr. Caspars." Chris looked calm.

"What is your name?"

"Chris."

The door was ajar, and the man's footsteps drifted away.

After a while, the man came back and closed the door directly, and said through the wooden door: "Mr. Kaspars said he didn't know you."

do not know?How can it be?

"Mr. Kaspars and I have already met twice!"

Chris didn't understand. Could it be that he was in a bad mood today?

"If I say I don't know, I mean I don't know! I'll beat you if I ask again!"

"..."

Chris always felt that something was wrong. He scratched his head and thought hard, and suddenly thought of a possibility:
Didn't I tell Caspars what my name was?
This old man's vigilance is too low!

Thinking of this, Chris patted the wooden door until it creaked: "Hey! I really know..."

Before he finished speaking, the wooden door was suddenly opened, and the dozen or so people sitting and standing inside instantly stood up and looked at Chris coldly, wishing to kill him with their eyes.

Chris shrank his neck and said with a smile: "Where is Mr. Caspars?"

"Who is making trouble here?"

A vicissitudes of voice came from the innermost part: "Let me see who is so... Oh, it's you, please come in, please come in!"

Kaspars, who originally had an indifferent face, saw Chris standing at the door, his face turned from gloomy to bright, and he showed a big smile.

Seeing that the other party was someone the boss knew, everyone else felt relieved, as if nothing had happened.

"What are you going to buy today? By the way, I don't know your name yet."

Caspars limped forward and greeted him familiarly.

"My name is Chris. Mr. Caspars, do you have a trading market here?"

"market place?"

Kaspars hesitated for a second and then continued: "Of course, but what do you want to buy? I can also sell it to you."

Why are you so enthusiastic? Is it a fake product...

Chris cursed and replied: "Some herbs and the like."

"Oh--"

Kaspars made a long sound and nodded: "Then I really don't have one."

He picked up his crutch and pointed at the door, saying: "Go out and go to the right, passing through a long corridor. There is a black wooden door on the left at the end of the corridor."

Just as Chris was about to turn around, he was stopped by Caspars again. He smiled and said, "Chris, if you want to buy any expensive spiritual materials in the future, you can come to me and I will give you a discount."

Seeing the wrinkles on Caspars' face squeezed together, revealing an extremely eye-catching red rosacea, Chris suppressed a smile and nodded repeatedly, closing the door.When the little fat sheep is raised and eaten, he will be killed severely...

Kaspars Kanlinen pinched his nose, turned his waist, and picked up the club:
"Let me show my hands!"

On Jason's side, he held up his glass and sipped slowly, watching the boxing match with relish. It seemed to be a group arena match. The ring leader Dan took a break just now, and now he has changed his opponent.

Chris followed Kaspars's instructions and walked all the way to the black wooden door, pushed it in gently.

It was a hall of about one hundred square meters, with no windows and only four gas lamps on the walls providing light.

The stalls were arranged in four rows throughout the hall. There were many people, but the voices were very soft. Chris felt like he was in a church, listening to the believers reciting prayers in a low voice.

This place is different from the underground trading market in Tingen's Dragon Bar. Although many of the customers and sellers here are not Extraordinary, quite a few of them have a rough understanding of the Extraordinary world.

Poison violet, black-edged sunflower, datura liquid, night vanilla...well, they are all very common extraordinary materials.

Chris put his hands behind his back and turned around to watch. He had learned a lot from Samantha and Jason before. Coupled with the extraordinary ability of the "Secret Peeper", he now knew a lot of extraordinary materials.

"what is this?"

Chris came to a stall and pointed at a blue crystal and asked.

There are many crystals of different colors on this booth, which is very beautiful.

"It's all for divination."

The stall owner is an aunt, she continued: "But you have to know how to divination before it can be effective, otherwise it can only be used as a decoration."

"I know how to divination, I have learned."

Chris was thinking about how to speak and whether to bargain.

"How do you sell these?" he asked.

"Blue crystal, 10 soli, red crystal, 15 soli, amethyst 1 pound."

"Why are the prices different? I think they all look the same."

"Of course there is a price difference, after all, the materials are different," the aunt said with an expression that she could buy it if she wanted to or not. "Those who know the goods will know the goods naturally. I am not the kind of person who shoddy goods. Of course, if you really You can buy this if you want to do divination.”

She took out a white crystal from her pocket and placed it on the tablecloth. This crystal was slightly smaller than the other crystals.

"This is the most suitable white crystal for divination. It has no impurities and a purity of 99.99%. It is commonly known as the 'King of Crystals'."

Chris observed carefully. There was no impurity on the surface of the white crystal and it was very transparent.And other colored crystals have tiny...bubbles inside?
Chris twitched his left eyebrow lightly to activate his spiritual vision. This was his method of activation.Turning off the spiritual vision requires two quick movements.

In the state of spiritual vision, he felt that the white crystal in front of him seemed purer.

He turned off his spiritual vision and asked, "How much does white crystal cost?"

"The young man really knows the goods." The aunt smiled, "Since you know the goods, I'm not ambiguous, so it's 2 pounds."

Chris took out the 10-pound note from his pocket and handed it to the aunt, then took the change and the white crystal.

"By the way, do you need to drill holes in the crystal?" Auntie asked, "Punching holes is free."

"……OK, thanks."

The aunt first put on a pair of white gloves, then took out a very thin silver nail and a small hammer, and then fixed the white crystal on a special mold.

The silver nail collided with the white crystal and made a crisp sound, and soon a small hole was punched through.

Big Mom held up the clear crystal to show Chris, and handed him a magnifying glass.

"How about it? There are no burrs around the hole. Are you satisfied, young man?"

"Yeah." Chris nodded. Just as he was about to put down the magnifying glass and leave with the white crystal, he was pulled back by her.

The aunt took out a silver chain and said to him with a smile: "Young man, let's wear another silver chain. The pattern will be very nice."
