C602 Pawnshop
In front of Zhou Yi was a huge city.
The city walls on both sides seemed endless, just like two gigantic dragons crawling on the ground.
People came and went through the city's gate continuously. Even the city gate that was ten meters wide was blocked so many people that not even a drop of water could trickle through. Zhou Yi sighed as if he had not seen so many people in a long time.
As they got closer, Zhou Yi saw a few large words written on top of the city gate: Loxia City.
"Brother bamboo hat, have you heard of this city?" As Zhou Yi walked, he communicated with Bamboo Hat Hero with his thoughts.
Bamboo Hat Hero didn't reply. Zhou Yi could be considered to be used to it, so he didn't mind.
When he walked down the city, Zhou Yi saw something that looked like a notice stuck on the city gate. However, Zhou Yi didn't intend to stay long, so he didn't go and check the situation out with curiosity.
As Zhou Yi followed the stream of people to the city, he realized that it was not a normal city. Although it was not as big as the capital, the roads on the surface of the city were very complicated.
What made Zhou Yi even more surprised was that anyone who walked in the street casually had Transcendency Stage. An Imperishable Golden Body like Zhou Yi was completely out of place here.
Zhou Yi sighed, "I wonder what the people here eat and grow up to be able to condense a golden body for a little kid!"
Looking at a child who was not even 10 years old running past him, Zhou Yi became more and more depressed.
However, thinking about it, since he was here, and the spiritual energy in this place was this dense, before he could think of a way to leave, it would be better for him to stay here to cultivate.
Thinking about this, Zhou Yi threw the idea of coming in early to take a look to the back of his mind.
Since he wanted to stay here, he had to settle the issue of lodging first.
However, he didn't even know what kind of money was in this place, much less what was in it. Thus, under such helplessness, he could only look around.
A seven or eight-year-old child was buying a sweet cake, and his tender hands were holding out a small piece of silver.
Zhou Yi understood in his heart: "Indeed, when that time comes, Chief Silver and Gold will not go out of style."
Where would he get this silver tael?
After walking around the street two more times, Zhou Yi's eyes suddenly lit up. Not far away from him, there was a big "Dang" word hanging there.
Speaking of nothing else, Zhou Yi did have two treasures that he could casually take out.
This was especially so for the pills in his possession. He had more or less saved them up previously, and since everyone here was a cultivator, he would definitely be able to obtain them.
Zhou Yi pushed open the pawnshop's door and walked in.
The decor of the pawnshop was rather simple. Other than a few windows, there was nothing else …
It was the resting chairs in the hall.
"Do you want to redeem it or not?" Just when Zhou Yi was about to sell out, a young man came over.
"Clang!" Zhou Yi replied straightforwardly.
"Then come with me!" The young man bowed and led the way. He led Zhou Yi through a small door in the hall.
The moment Zhou Yi opened the door, he realized that this was where the real thing was.
The back hall was already filled with people. From sixty years old to fifteen to sixteen years old, there were at least thirty to fifty people waiting in line.
"So many people?" Zhou Yi revealed a surprised expression. Could it be that their Sunset City actually had a 'dang' effect?
Seeing Zhou Yi's expression, the youth smiled and said: "This is the first time you've come to our Sunset City, right?"2
"Ah!" Zhou Yi answered in a daze.
It's not only my first time here, it's also my first time in this world.
"These two days are the day that we, Qi Ruzhai, will release our guests, so there are more people coming than usual!" The youth smiled.
"The day of the release?" Zhou Yi was confused again.
Seeing that he really didn't know anything, the youth first chuckled, then explained, "On the day of the release, the goods will be given 20% more silver than usual, and the redemption will be 20% less silver than at the time!"
As soon as he said that, Zhou Yi immediately understood and said: "Then that would be letting us off easy!"
The youth smiled and said, "If you want to put it that way, that's right!"
With that, the young man called out Zhou Yi's number plate, which he handed over to him: "Take this number plate, if you get your number plate, you can go directly there. If you are too anxious, there is a tea room and a lounge there, you can go there and wait."
With that, he left without waiting for Zhou Yi's reply.
Zhou Yi looked at the people in the hall and couldn't help but to let out a sigh.
Zhou Yi looked bored as he sat in the hall. He took a look at his number plate and saw that it had already reached 178.
At first, he thought there were only so many people in the hall, but it turned out that there were nearly a hundred people sitting in the tea room and lounge behind them.
Zhou Yi sighed, then went back to the hall and sat down, but his ears were trying hard to hear what was going on.
"Sir, although the Eastern Pearl in your hand is not bad, but we, Qi Ruozhai, have already collected several hundred of the best East Pearls. We will not be able to accept the price you have given us!" The deacon was an old man of about fifty years of age. He looked at the bead in his hand for a few seconds under the magnifying glass, then opened his mouth.
His clothes were ordinary, and he did not look like a rich person. He stared at Dong Zhu, and said somewhat urgently: "I, I really have urgent needs, my mother is sick, and I urgently need a Soul Restoring Pill, and I do not have the money to buy it, you, please keep it, I will redeem it in the future!"
The old man smiled and said, "This old man is a businessman, and I am only a deacon as well, so I cannot make the decision. If you can accept it, I will give you 30 taels of silver. I really cannot take 50 taels of silver!"
"Please, please!" From the looks of it, he was on the verge of kneeling down.
Zhou Yi heard it clearly, one Soul Replenishing Pill was worth 50 taels of silver, and he had three more in his hand, so he could only exchange them for at most 100 taels.
Recently, he had been running for his life, and the pills he had saved were refined a long time ago. Thus, it was not very practical to exchange the pills for money.
While Zhou Yi was in a trance, the young man on the other side had already knelt on the ground and started crying.
"Men, throw him out!" When the old man spoke, two valiant men walked over and dragged the young man out.
The young man wailed and pleaded, but the old man had already gone to call Number One.
Zhou Yi only heard that there were 70 odd people. There was still a long time until his 100 odd people arrived. He immediately felt relieved and walked out of the pawn shop with the other two.
When he went out, the young man was sitting on the ground crying. He held the East Pill in his hand. He wanted to throw it, but couldn't bear to.
"I'll trade with you!" The young man only felt a shadow over his head before a white hand passed over a jade bottle filled with mutton fat …
