Chapter 284 (1/2)
Jiugong advanced trading area.
The roads here are clean and wide, with no stalls on either side, only rows of tall and neat stone houses built of limestone. It is the big tribes, even a few super tribes, in the commodity trading point of Jiugong.
Although it is not as noisy as the low-level trading area, there is still a constant flow of people.
The nine towers also set up trading points here, which are the nine tallest buildings in the high-end trading area.
Qiyi tower trading point.
This is a two-story wide stone house, the exterior wall is painted with off white paint, and there are many stone platforms with round cut, on which are placed many things that people have never seen before.
There are fur shoes sewn from animal skins, a ”cong” type mop on a wooden floor, combs polished with clam shells, adze for flat wood, huge agricultural columbines, needles as fine as hair, strange horn implements, clam implements, and even a giant star watch made of turtle shell in the center.
People come and go. People from different tribes buy things from Qiyi pagoda here. However, people are not allowed to enter the second floor of Qiyi tower. It seems that there are two worlds on the first floor.
At the moment, in the spacious and quiet second floor, there is only one Jiugong soldier with a goat beard. He is sitting quietly by a stone platform, and he is bending his head very seriously to polish a fishbone comb, which is a gift he gave to his partner.
The sound of water dripped.
Next to him, there was a huge blue stone implement.
This is a drip pot leak. There is a tiny invisible small hole at the bottom of it. Drops of water slowly drop into the bottom of the container. The water accumulates slowly, and the water will soon reach the horizontal line drawn on the edge of the container.
After grinding the fishbone comb, the soldier put it down, stood up, took up a water basin at his feet, and slowly poured the water from it into the funnel of the dripping pot.
At this time, a dark, short man suddenly touched it.
”Lord Yijiu, Lord Yijiu?” He called softly.
The Jiugong soldier, named Yijiu, continued to pour water slowly without turning his head. ”Slippery, what can I do for you?”
It turned out that the man who touched the second floor was the slide of Yeshan tribe.
Sliding head and waist, but secretly glanced at Yi Jiu's side of the huge drip pot leakage. He said in his heart: ”it's strange that the adults of the nine jobs are really strange. It's not too troublesome to make such a big thing. I don't know how many times we need to add water every day, just to calculate what time.”.
Is this time worth counting? Whether it's a day or not, if you want to know when it's time, look up at the sun, or ask yourself if you're hungry.
However, although he was in the stomach, he did not dare to show any disrespect on his face. He drew out a honey colored candle carefully from his arms.
This is the one ye Xi gave him.
Not long after ye Xi went back, he sent Duan Ling to send him a root. However, without stopping for a moment after receiving it, he ran over with a candle in his hand.
Different from the other eight pagodas, Qiyi pagoda, as the name implies, refers to all the unique skills except the eight arts. Some small tribes also have their own special skills. If they like Qiyi tower, they will buy them.
Originally, the candle made by Ye Xi was enough to attract the attention of Qiyi tower. However, ye Xi only sold it once, and only sold more than 200 candles at a time. It hit the lake like a small water flower, which was not noticed by the people of Qiyi tower.
No, it's not that I didn't notice.
At least the skate associated with Qiyi tower was immediately noticed. He has a fierce eye. People who are sure that Qiyi pagoda will be interested in candles. He will come to the candles immediately after the candles.
He ignited the fire with flint, lit the candle and handed it to Yijiu: ”my Lord, I found something interesting again, you see.”
When Yijiu finished adding water to the kettle, he put down the basin and turned around.
