Apocalyptic life from scratch

Chapter 218 Market News

"Hey, wait! Brother, do you like the one bigger or smaller than you, we have all kinds of ones, and you can also customize it, you are satisfied!"

Facing this slave trader who looked like brown sugar, Kong Zhe was also helpless.

In today's safe zone, things like the women in the past are too common to stop. After all, it is their own choice, and the government simply ignores it. However, the military still strictly prohibits human trafficking. .Once caught, they will be wanted and exiled throughout the safe zone.

That's why these slave traders only dared to do it in a sneaky way, and Kong Zhe estimated that the reason why he found him was probably because this man thought he was wearing better equipment and he was considered a wealthy master.

But he is not interested in this kind of thing. Even in his previous life, he never spent precious gold coins on such things as buying slaves.It is not difficult to get rid of this kind of person, all you need to do is call out to the patrolling soldiers around, and you are guaranteed to scare them away. Kong Zhe has done this kind of thing many times in his previous life.

Kong Zhe sighed, and when he was about to greet a city defense force passing by in the distance, he suddenly heard a cold voice from behind.

"Get out of the old lady!"

Hong Ling glared at the human trafficker viciously, and moved her joints with her hands, making crackling noises.

"Oh... ghost!"

The sly-eyed man took a step back in fright, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying, while screaming in horror, he fled the scene quickly without touching the ground.

Kong Zhe turned his head and looked at Hong Ling who still had an angry expression on his face, feeling a little amused in his heart.Looking at that person's appearance, it was obvious that he was not frightened by ordinary people, and it should be Hong Ling's trick. Kong Zhe couldn't help but sigh, illusion is really useful in some aspects.

This was just a small episode. After they left the food area, they strolled casually for a while. Because of the previous incidents, Hong Ling was a little less interested at this time.Most of the original enthusiasm for shopping has also dissipated.

As for Kong Zhe, there is actually nothing to go shopping. After revisiting the surrounding environment, he and Hong Ling walked directly to the center of the square.

The reason why this place can form a large trading area is not only because of the large square here, but also because it is the center of the entire safety zone. In the center of this square, an inheritance crystal with a radius of two or three meters is floating in the air. .Glittering in the light.

In all safe areas, there are more or less NPCs.Unlike the previous medium-sized security zone, in the stadium and Jincheng University, the NPC there is simply a person.In a large safe area, the so-called NPCs have become shops, and the number of NPCs has also increased greatly.

At this time, in front of Kong Zhe, there are five buildings standing tall.They are food stores, grocery stores, and pharmacies.There is also a rare building magic tower.

The magic tower is relatively rare even in big cities. It looks like a tower made of transparent materials, and its height is only a dozen meters. of prestige points are exchanged for real items.There are many things that can be exchanged for reputation points, including various rare props, equipment, and even skills and attribute books that permanently increase attributes.

In addition, there is a small hut-like building, which surprised Kong Zhe slightly, it is actually a shop opened by an enchanter!

In his previous life, Kong Zhe remembered that there was no enchanter in Jincheng, but now there is one. It seems that he was influenced by his crossing the world line.Because of Kong Zhe's status as an enchanter, he took a second look at the small thatched hut, but at this time there was no one paying attention to it, only an old man with a white beard curled his hands and closed his eyes to rest.

After watching for a while, Kong Zhe stopped paying attention, and dragged Hong Ling to a corner of the street.After seeing that no one was paying attention to them, Kong Zhe said, "How many gold coins do we have left from last time?"

"There are still more than 400... Nuo, they are all here."

Hong Ling took out a bulging cloth bag from the inventory and handed it to Kong Zhe.This cloth bag was exactly the cloth bag that Hongling used to hold the treasures dropped from the boss during the last boss battle.During the shaking of the cloth bag, there was an occasional clanging sound.

At that time, after the "Oss" battle, except for the few pieces of gold equipment, most of the equipment below purple was seen by the people present, so they couldn't move it naturally, but Hongling would not put away the gold coins on the ground. Passed. At that time, everyone's attention was on the equipment, and they didn't care much about the gold coins, and there were so many gold coins, even if a part was missing, no one would notice.

It's just a pity that time is limited, she is destined to not be able to take too many gold coins, and Hong Ling can only take as many gold coins as possible, and now these are all in her hands.

"Um……"

Kong Zhe nodded, quickly took the cloth bag and put it in the ring.Then he and Hong Ling left the place.

It's just that what they didn't notice was that just after they left, a figure with a peaked cap appeared slightly at another corner of the street.Under the brim of the hat, a pair of bright eyes stared closely at the two people who walked into the grocery store in the distance.

He raised a transparent bead in his right hand, amidst the surge of magic power, there were little glimmers of light in the bead, and a clear voice came from the mouth of the figure.

"Dahe, Zhuzi, there is work..."

……

"Just such a little thing, you want fifteen hundred gold coins?"

In the grocery store, Hong Ling pointed to the small pile of monster materials on the table, and questioned angrily. Finally, she couldn't hold back, and grabbed the NPC in front of her by the neckline.

"Say! Are you trying to trick us?"

"No, no!"

The clerk in the grocery store was a green-skinned goblin, and Hong Ling easily lifted his small body into the air, and hurriedly explained: "War horse horns, blood-dropping tear stones, and fluorescent species, etc., these are top-level materials. , that's the price!"

"Nonsense, I don't believe that there are so many broken things. If you don't explain it to me today, my mother will tear down your shop..."

"Uh……"

Kong Zhe looked at it amusedly. In fact, the goblin was right. The pile of materials in front of him were all high-quality enchanting materials, and some of them were even of blue quality, which was indeed worth the price.It's just that because most people are like Hongling, their understanding of the value of materials is still in the state of peacetime, and they will subconsciously think that the value of such things that cannot directly be used is very low.

Although the goblin in front of me is in an invincible state, the invincibility here only means that the attacks it receives will be forced to zero, and it has no attack power. If someone comes to smash the field, then it can still It applied to the system for protection, but faced with big customers like Hong Ling and Kong Zhe with an order of several thousand gold coins, it would never dare to take such tough measures, otherwise it might have to be directly expelled by the Goblin Chamber of Commerce.

'Customer is God' is also applicable to the World of Warcraft, especially for the goblin family who made a fortune in business.

Until Kong Zhe paid the money happily and the two left the shop, Hong Ling still had a pained expression on his face.Their originally wealthy assets were squandered in just a few minutes, and what they got in exchange was materials that seemed useless, which made her a little unacceptable.

"Okay, don't think too much about it. Money is earned for spending. It's useless to have too many gold coins. It has to be transformed into real combat power to reflect its value."

Kong Zhe chuckled and said, "With these materials, I can enchant the weapons and equipment of several of us once. This kind of improvement in combat power is obvious. Then you will know that the money is worth it... "

"Oh……"

Hong Ling nodded with a forced smile. In fact, she also understood that Kong Zhe must have his intentions in doing so, but she couldn't accept this huge gap for a while.

"Then Brother Kong, where shall we go next?"

"Next... let's go there..."

Hong Ling looked in the direction of Kong Zhe's finger, and said lightly, "Auction house?"

"Well, I spent so much money just now, so it's time to make some money..."

……

The Goblin Auction House is another NPC building, but this building is a little different. It is not located around the inheritance crystal like the other buildings, but is on the edge of the entire trading area.

Strictly speaking, this building is not purely an NPC building. In addition to goblins, its internal employees also have shares of Fox and Elf tribes, and even recruited some local humans to work some time ago.

In places like auctions, humans can actually build them by themselves, but the credibility is much worse than that of NPCs. After all, NPCs have systematic coercive intervention, so basically there will be no disturbances and snatchings during auctions.

Although the handling fee is a bit more expensive, there is no doubt that it is much safer.

When the two reached the steps of the auction house, they were stopped.

"Sir, please show your membership card!"

A good-looking Miss Manners bowed slightly and said respectfully.

Kong Zhe noticed that this was an ordinary human girl, estimated to be less than 20 years old.This is the characteristic of this auction house. They will hire some humans locally, and there is no requirement for strength, even ordinary people can do it. Of course, the most important thing is to have a good appearance and figure, and secondly, to know the rules of dealing with people.

Those alien races are not good at what to pay attention to when communicating with other races, so they will recruit some local humans to do jobs like receptionists.

As for human beings, especially ordinary people, they do not have strong strength, and it is difficult to obtain food to survive. Once they get close to an NPC, it is equivalent to having a stable job, and they can't help but eat and drink without worrying about it. Safety is also greatly guaranteed.
