Chapter 317 Prodigal
So precisely because of this, Jiang Guo's aquatic business is exported to various countries.

"You can see the sea at the north end of Jiang State. It is also a place full of all kinds of interesting things and abundant supplies. If you want to go, I can take you to see it then." Lin Zhishen looked at her with a faint smile in his eyes. meaning.

"The sea..." Lin Baoer sighed.

She didn't get to see the sea much in modern times. Instead, she came here and saw it twice. Once when she was ten years old when she went to sea business with Lin Ruqian, and the other time when she grew up and went there on her own. Once.

"Okay." She smiled.

You can't see enough of the sea, and when you have friends around you, the taste is even more different.

The two of them were walking slowly on the street, with all kinds of shouts filling their ears, full of human smoke.

"There is another legend that you should be very interested in. According to legend, after traveling on the sea for a day and a night, you will encounter an isolated island. The people there call themselves the South Country. Everyone in the country knows voodoo, not only to control people's hearts. They are very proficient in all kinds of poisoning techniques. If you accidentally go there, if you are accepted by them, you will be treated with courtesy and treated as a guest. If you are not accepted, you will be crawled by the poison the moment you step onto the island. If it spreads all over the body, it will lead to death within seven steps.”

Lin Zhishen walked with his hands behind his back, his thin lips opening and closing.

"Have you been there?" Lin Baoer looked at him.

Lin Zhishen glanced at the clothes and said, "They are worth the price."

"This is natural." The shopkeepers were all proud. "I heard that because people from the South are good at bewitching, the silk from the South is always better than the silk from other real estates. I heard that there is also the rare gold As for silk, it’s just that the golden silk is not something ordinary people like us can afford. It is sold to royal families of various countries, or to dignitaries, etc. "

"Aren't you afraid of becoming the latter?" Lin Zhishen raised an eyebrow.

"Is it that southern country famous for its voodoo arts?"

Hearing this, Lin Baoer was thoughtful and glanced at Lin Zhishen without leaving any trace.

"So expensive?" Lin Baoer was stunned.

"Hey! Hello, gentlemen! What kind of clothes do you want?" The shopkeeper of the tailor shop came up to him with a smile. Seeing their extraordinary demeanor, he rolled his eyes and pointed at the clothes on the high platform on the other side. , "You two are so lucky today. This is made of silk just shipped from the south. It is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is a treasure!"

There are two skirts and two men's clothes on the high platform. They are both extremely gorgeous and inlaid with pearls. At first glance, the materials do look valuable.

"But this ordinary silk is already very good. It took me a long time to get this." The shopkeeper smiled sheepishly.

"No, I just heard about it and I'm quite interested." Lin Zhishen shook his head.

"It seems that the guest also knows this place." The shopkeeper said with a smile, "It's right there, but everyone only knows that it is famous for its voodoo magic, but they don't know that the silk that is exported to various countries is also a rare treasure there, and one piece is worth it. It’s worth a thousand taels of gold.”

"When have I ever been afraid?" Lin Baoer looked arrogant and turned around and entered a clothing store.

He confirmed the rumor for her.

She didn't pay much attention to these things. Shen Xuelan or Lin Ruqian usually bought them for her, or she would just go to a shop and buy two sets when she was out. She never knew the price of these fabrics.

Hearing this, Lin Baoer smiled and said, "It's indeed quite interesting. If you have a chance, you can go there and see it."

Surprised by his words, Lin Baoer looked over, "Southern Country?"

【Royal? Doesn’t that mean Ashen also has it? 】

[But looking at Ah Shen’s unpopular appearance, he probably doesn’t have the money to wear it...]

She retracted her gaze, pointed to the one on the edge and said, "How much does that one cost?" That one was far less gorgeous than the previous ones, with a white and blue gradient color, and only the inner lining and the most important part of the outer shirt. Made of silk, it is very elegant and low-key.

"Your Majesty, you really know the goods. Although this piece is not entirely made of silk, the other parts are sewn with fine snow thread. All you need is..."

The shopkeeper held out three fingers.

Lin Baoer was stunned and couldn't believe it, "Three hundred taels?!"

The shopkeeper smiled cutely.

"Let's go." Without thinking, Lin Baoer pulled Lin Zhishen and wanted to leave.

Three hundred taels for a piece of clothing, why didn't he grab it!
But as soon as she took a step, she was gently stopped by Lin Zhishen. He looked at the shopkeeper, pointed at the men's clothing on the other side and said, "How much is the total including that one?"

The men's suit is similar to this skirt. The lining and outer shirt are both made of silk, and the rest are sewn with snow thread.

"Looking at the predestined relationship between me and the two guests, a total of five hundred taels of silver will do." The shopkeeper rubbed his hands and smiled flatteringly.

"Okay, wrap it up." Lin Zhishen took out the banknote from his arms.

Lin Baoer pulled him to the corner in disbelief and whispered, "Are you crazy?! The shopkeeper obviously tricked us!"

Although the silk is precious, but based on his few words and no proof, who can believe that the silk on the clothes is really the silk from the southern country? What if it was used to recharge elsewhere? !

Lin Zhishen smiled at her and shook his head. When the shopkeeper looked over, he handed over the banknote in his hand.

Looking at the stack of banknotes, Lin Baoer's heart ached.

They robbed a total of only 800 taels of silver from Xiao Shan's men, and now they spent 500 taels. What will they do next? ! They still have to prepare to stay here for a while, and they also have to prepare supplies for Si Xu and the others, and money is even more essential.

"Nothing." Lin Zhishen patted her shoulder.

After the shopkeeper Huanxi wrapped up the two pieces of clothing, the two of them left the clothing store.

"Why do you have to buy this! Just buy two cheap ones!" Lin Baoer was furious.

[If you don’t know how expensive materials, rice, oil, and salt are, you just throw out five hundred taels of silver and don’t know whether to steal or rob! 】

Listening to the voice in his ears, Lin Zhishen blinked, touched his nose, and held Lin Baoer's hand without letting go, "Come to a place with me."

Lin Baoer didn't know why.

After half a stick of incense, Lin Baoer looked at the sign in front and hesitated, "Gambling shop?"

Lin Zhishen didn't comment and walked in first.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Baoer also followed.

Although she has a system in hand, she knows nothing about gambling like this. What's more, compared with those gamblers, they just give away money.

In fact, it's not like she can't exchange the items in the system mall for silver, but she can't bear to part with them. These points are much more useful than silver. She can save them if she can. Anyway, she doesn't have to starve to death.

Moreover, when she was in the Taiping Kingdom, Lin Ruqian's properties were everywhere, and she had never worried about running out of money. But when she got here, she suffered a misfortune.
