Chapter 1660: Chapter 1660, the rules of the bazaar
As Park Renyong had insisted on teaching Jiang Fei how to pick up girls, and Jiang Fei was too embarrassed to give the old man a good beating, the old man decided to stick to Jiang Fei.
“Forget it, ignore him. Let’s continue on our journey...”Jiang Fei shook his head helplessly. He could only let Park Renyong join the party temporarily.
However, with the old man joining them, Jiang Fei and the rest were not without benefits. After all, Zhang Chen’s level as a guide was too low. There were many secrets that she did not understand. Park Renyong was different. This old man had the strength and age, therefore, he knew many things that ordinary people did not understand.
Therefore, after Park Renyong joined them, Jiang Fei and the rest not only visited many mountains and rivers along the way, but they also heard many stories about famous places. From these stories, Jiang Fei and the rest had a better understanding of the entire celestial star.
Two days later, Jiang Fei and the others finally arrived at the venue of the Fish Leaping Festival. At this time, the place was already quite lively. After all, the fish leaping festival would officially begin in two days’time.
Although the festival had not officially begun, the place was already quite lively, especially the spontaneously formed market. At this time, many people were already starting to set up stalls and trade.
“Master Yuan, this is the entrance. We need to buy tickets,”Zhang Chen said to Jiang Fei at the entrance of the event venue. If it were not for the fact that the tickets were too expensive, she would have come long ago.
“Alright! Let’s go buy tickets!”Jiang Fei laughed.
“Big Brother, how can we let you spend so much on something like this? I’ll do it!”Park Renyong took the lead and helped Jiang Fei and the others buy tickets.
“This old man is quite rich!”Jiang Fei thought to himself. After all, the tickets to the fish leaping feast were not cheap. Five spirit stones for a ticket was already half the price of the teleportation circle, not to mention Jiang Fei’s side had quite a number of people.
“Big Brother, these are our tickets!”Soon, Park Renyong returned with the tickets.
“How could I let you spend money when we just met...”Jiang Fei said politely, but the hand that took the tickets did not hesitate at all.
After entering the fish leaping festival area, Jiang Fei and the rest found a hotel and settled down. The cost of this hotel was also not cheap. It was the same reason for this tourist spot to rip off customers. However, fortunately, Jiang Fei and the rest had met a fool, park Renyong volunteered to bear all the expenses.
......
In the afternoon, Jiang Fei and the rest settled down and ate. It could be said that they were free.
“Master Yuan, let’s go and see if there are any good things!”Zhang Chen was even more excited than Jiang Fei and the rest. After all, the Fish Leap Festival was a place that she had been looking forward to for a long time.
“That’s good too!”Jiang Fei nodded. Since they had nothing to do, it would be good to go to the stalls. What if they could pick up some treasures.
After that, Jiang Fei and the rest came out of the hotel in a large group and went straight to the spontaneous market.
The market of the fish festival was not what Jiang Fei had expected. Not only was there no noise, but it was also very quiet. Although there were many people setting up stalls, none of them were shouting to attract customers.
“Why aren’t these people shouting?”Si tuying asked curiously.
“Everyone is a cultivator. Although we are setting up stalls here, we still need to have identities. Why would we shout...”Zhang Chen explained with a smile.
“Girl, you don’t understand. In the face of benefits, face is nothing. If shouting could bring them more customers, they would have shouted a long time ago. However, more than half of these people are selling stolen goods. If they shouted, they might not attract customers, but their enemies!”Pu Renyong said with a smile.
“AH? So that’s how it is?”Zhang Chen was a little dumbfounded. This had completely overturned her understanding of cultivators.
“This is very normal...”Jiang Fei shrugged. Although places like the fish leaping festival were large in scale, they were still a mix of fish and dragons. This kind of market was the best place to sell stolen goods.
Jiang Fei did not really mind that most of the goods sold in this market were stolen goods. He did not care whether these things had a legitimate origin or not. As long as the items were good and the price was reasonable, Jiang Fei was willing to take them.
As the few of them spoke, they arrived at the inner part of the market. There were already many cultivators who had set up their stalls. Most of these people were sitting on the floor. There was a blanket in front of them. There were a few items on it, some of them were magical weapons, flying swords, and some were medicinal pills and rare fruits. However, these were only a few of the items. Most of them were broken magical weapons.
Most of the stolen goods in the world of cultivators were not obtained by stealing. Almost all of them were stolen by killing people. If the difference in strength was not too great, the party that was killed would put up a desperate fight, it was impossible for them not to use their magic artifacts and flying swords. Once they used them, it was very likely that the equipment would be damaged in a desperate battle.
The cultivators who had stolen the items were too lazy to waste time on repairing and refining these things that they did not need, so they simply broke them and sold them. At the very most, they could just buy a little less money, there was no need to waste a lot of time on these things.
However, the entire market wasn’t full of people selling stolen goods. There were also a few sects that were famous for refining equipment that had their own fixed stalls. However, because their items were all new and came from a legitimate source.., therefore, the price was far higher than those stolen goods from unknown sources.
“Eh? This thing is quite interesting.”At this moment, Nina was attracted by a small thing.
“Hey, how much do you want for this thing?”Sylvie asked. After all, in the game, she and Nina were from the Holy See, so the two of them were very close.
”...”the stall owner covered his face and could not see his expression. However, from the fact that he did not speak and only rolled his eyes at Jiang Fei and the others, it could be seen that this guy was very disdainful of Jiang Fei and the others.
“That’s not how you buy things here...”Park Renyong walked to the front awkwardly. At this time, he had already understood that Jiang Fei and the rest did not understand the rules of the market.
When they heard Park Renyong’s words, Nina and Sylvie stepped aside and let park Renyong come to the front of the stall.
Park Renyong did not say anything. He just squatted in front of the stall and picked up the little thing that Nina had taken a fancy to and played with it for a while. Then, he put it back into the distance.
“Pah Pah Pah...”after putting down the thing, Park Renyong lightly knocked on the side of the thing three times.
“Pah Pah Pah Pah...”the stall owner didn’t raise his head, but patted his feet four times.
“Pah Pah Pah Pah...”Park Renyong patted it three more times, and then stood up.
“Pah!”The stall owner hesitated for a moment, and then patted his thigh.
“Hehe.”Park Renyong smiled. He then took out three spirit stones from his money bag and placed them on the little thing. After that, he held the item in his hand. After everything was done.., he stood up and turned around to leave. Jiang Fei and the rest did not understand and could only follow behind him.
