Chapter 1067

But this trading house was very small and very old, though its name was quite official.

It was probably the earliest trading house.

There were fewer people here, but it could still be considered crowded.

Likewise, Zhao Chi spent 40 gold coins to activate all the premium services.

This time Zhao Chi still divided the stockings into several tiers, but started selling from 4 gold coins up to 7 gold coins, 10 pairs per portion.

The clientele at different trading houses might differ slightly.

Zhao Chi wanted to see where they sold better.

The last trading house was to the south of Black Crystal Town, relatively far away.

But it was still worth a trip.

At the very least, he had to activate all those premium services, so that Zhao Chi could remotely sell stockings and also remotely purchase goods from that trading house.

After all, the goods at these three trading houses were all independent, and all needed to be checked.

He was now at the center of Black Crystal Town.

The surrounding buildings were very old.

They were all built from black stone—perhaps Black Crystal Town was named for this?

The surrounding streets were also considerably narrower than the previous ones; after all, this was the old district, and everything looked very cramped.

But the atmosphere of daily life here was stronger.

Everywhere there were small shops run by dark elves, selling food, much of which was fungi—all kinds of mushrooms.

Many of them Zhao Chi had never seen.

There were even large quantities of brightly colored mushrooms, vivid red and green, some even crystalline and translucent, and some glowing with fluorescence.

"Young man, want to try some? Very cheap."

Zhao Chi quickly waved his hand: "Can this kind of mushroom be eaten? It's not poisonous, right?"

"Hehe, it is poisonous, but you should eat this kind—the toxicity is very mild, you'll feel very happy after eating it."

"No thanks……"

Perhaps dark elves could eat them, but Zhao Chi definitely wouldn't—not even touch them.

He instinctively moved a bit farther away.

Besides mushrooms, there were also many earthworms here.

These earthworms were very thick, as long as cucumbers, just a bit thinner—perhaps a special variety.

The dark elves fried these earthworms, making them into crispy earthworm snacks, and quite a few dark elves were crunching away—crack, crack.

Eating while the juices burst out.

Bursting juices while slurping them up.

They were really eating with great relish.

"Come try some, a big earthworm is only 20 copper coins, buy two get one free."

Buy two get one free?

Wouldn't eat them even if they were free……

"No thanks, I'm just looking, thank you."

Zhao Chi watched, frowning, but the smell……he couldn't quite describe it—a very strange fragrance.

It wasn't unpleasant, but Zhao Chi still didn't want to eat it.

The shop next door sold clothes.

Dark elf clothing was clearly different from human clothing, with quite a lot of decorations on it.

Many were mushroom-shaped, and also very brightly colored.

They did look rather pretty.

Zhao Chi had originally wanted to buy a few for Gu Qing and the others, but inside there were all female dark elves, so he gave up on that.

The dark elf shopkeeper at the door smiled at Zhao Chi.

"Handsome fellow, you've come to the wrong place—this is a clothing store. The shop you want is next door, right?"

The shop next door?

Zhao Chi walked further along, and here was a small shop lit with pink lamps.

Inside were quite a few people of other races.

Mainly orcs and goblins.

Some female dark elves were smiling coquettishly at them, then pulling them into the rooms inside.

"Handsome fellow, come in and have some fun? Our service is very good."

So it was that kind of shop……

Zhao Chi shook his head and quickly walked away.

Checking the map, there was still some distance to the third trading house.

So Zhao Chi hailed a carriage.

The dark elf coachman asked amiably: "Friend, where to?"

"To the 'Ruby Trading House.'"

"By carriage or by wing bat?"

"Wing bat?"

The coachman pointed upward.

Only then did Zhao Chi see that two enormous wing bats had been circling overhead, looking very much like oversized bats.

Each wing-bat had a rope tied to both its feet, with a two-person seat hanging below.

Looks like this counts as air transport too.
