"A hundred jade coins per person?" Si Wen Ming knitted his eyebrows and complained, "You've raised the price!"
The gigantic turtle slowly walked to less than three-hundred zhang away from the three of them. The man in a black robe nimbly leaped down from the tower, reached in front of the three of them with a few leaps, then smilingly crossed his arms and saluted to Si Wen Ming.
"My honored guest, it seems that you're also a frequent visitor to the four wastelands. Our Spirit Turtle Caravan has indeed raised the price, but it's worth it. This starry sky spirit turtle of ours has just broken into the high-level Magus King level three years ago. Now, it's more than ten times steadier than before, isn't it? "
"Eh?" Si Wen Ming raised his eyebrows, smilingly cupped his hands to the man in a black robe and said, "High-level Magus King level, it's really not easy for a starry sky spirit turtle to break into the high-level Magus King level. Your Spirit Turtle Caravan is going to make a fortune! "
While talking and laughing, Si Wen Ming took out three adult palm-sized, square-shaped jade tablets from his sleeve.
The green jade tablets were exquisitely crafted, decorated with exquisite patterns of flowers and vines. In the middle of the jade tablets were a few thin clouds, with a tall tower rising from the ground and penetrating the clouds. On the tower, an erect eye was shining brightly.
"A hundred jade coins per jade coin, according to the market price, you have to give me five jade coins for each jade coin." Si Wen Ming handed the three jade tablets to the man in a black robe and seriously started bargaining with him.
The man in a black robe stroked the three jade tablets, then put them into the leather bag tied around his waist. He then took out fifteen thumb-sized, glowing, round-shaped jade coins and handed them to Si Wen Ming. Ji Hao clearly saw that these jade coins were also embossed with tall towers and erect eyes.
Before they could ask Si Wen Ming about these jade coins and jade coins, when the three of them boarded the Starry Sky Spirit Turtle, they caused another trouble.
Just when Man Man stepped on the turtle's shell with her pair of hammers carried on her shoulders, the turtle abruptly turned its head around, glanced at Man Man in surprise, then directly opened its mouth and said in the human language, "Little girl, your hammers are too heavy … Oi, Gui Three, one jade coin is added for a hundred-thousand stone weight of goods, this girl's hammers, you take a good look at them!"
Gui Three, who was wearing a black cloak, hurriedly walked over with a few other men who were wearing black cloaks, and tried to check Man Man's hammers.
Man Man habitually picked up the hammer and threw it to Gui Three …
The Spirit Turtle Caravan was instantly thrown into chaos. Large groups of guards rushed over from all directions, staring at Gui Three and his four Senior Magi guards, who were pressed on the ground by Man Man's gigantic hammer and couldn't even move. Not only them, but even the Starry Sky Spirit Turtle that was carrying the city on its back was also dumbfounded.
After a long time, the Starry Sky Spirit Turtle said in a muffled voice, "This girl is so strong. No one died, right? No one died … this … they all vomited blood. Girl, you should pay for the medicine, right? "
"Man Man, next time, don't throw your hammers randomly!" In the city on the back of the turtle, Ji Hao was standing in front of the door of the room that was assigned by the caravan to the three of them, and seriously said to Man Man, "You see, they almost killed someone. We were honored guests of the caravan, but now, we almost became their enemies!"
Man Man carelessly looked around, then kicked the door open, shook her head and said, "Such a small room … that's because they are too weak … Chasing after Man Man in the Southern Wasteland? Ji Hao, are you sure you're not joking? "
Ji Hao and Si Wen Ming glanced at each other and didn't know what to say. It seemed that this girl was right, chasing after her in the Southern Wasteland meant that they had to be prepared to be exterminated by the Zhu Rong family. At least, this caravan of the Spirit Turtle Caravan couldn't afford to offend the Zhu Rong family.
Man Man sulkily threw her hammers on the floor. Instantly, the entire building, which was specially designed for guests who came from outside, slightly shook again. She unhappily sat on a stool in the room, took out a small storage bag, showed her teeth, and weighed the gold, pearls, jade shells and other valuables in the bag, which had been clanging against each other.
Man Man smashed five caravan caravan members to the ground, then gave them a pile of jade and gold. She then sighed and said, "No wonder my big brother said that money is a must when we go out … I only injured a few of them, and I have to pay so much, if I killed them, I wouldn't have any money to spend. Eh, I never thought that I needed money when I go out before. "
Ji Hao turned around, and decided not to talk too much about this with Man Man.
Both of them grew up in completely different environments, therefore, they couldn't communicate with each other about many common sense things.
Si Wen Ming seriously and responsibly explained the importance of money to Man Man when they went out. The Midland was not like the Southern Wasteland. In the Southern Wasteland, clans could still barter with each other, and carry out the most primitive trade. However, in the Midland, if people wanted to trade with each other, they would have to use the same kind of jade plates and jade coins that Si Wen Ming had used.
Ji Hao was standing by the window of the building, looking at the scenery of this city, which had a radius of miles, on the back of the gigantic turtle. Si Wen Ming was telling Man Man about his experiences when he went out. As for Man Man, she carelessly grabbed her hammer and fiercely thrust it into the storage bag that she had been carrying around with her.
"Ha, hammers! Man Man is so smart! Put the hammers into this small storage bag, then we can ask for a refund from the caravan! " Man Man grinned from ear to ear, then exerted all of her strength and thrust the gigantic hammer into that magic storage bag of hers, which had an unknown capacity.
Si Wen Ming didn't even have the time to stop her. Along with a clear cracking noise, tens of eye-piercing spell symbols on Man Man's storage bag cracked. Large amounts of finely carved gold, jade and other rare treasures gushed out of the storage bag like tidewater. Within the blink of an eye, the room they were in was completely filled up.
More treasures were affected by the space vibration caused by the tearing of the storage bag, but after a slight flash, they turned into puffs of smoke and dissipated in the air.
"Eh?" Man Man blinked her eyes in surprise and said, "This storage bag is as big as a house, why can't this hammers fit into it?"
Ji Hao stood up from the pile of gold and jade with difficulty, and looked at Man Man with a bitter smile. Si Wen Ming also had a bitter smile on his face. He helplessly looked at the room full of shining treasures, grinned embarrassedly and said, "Man Man, I, your uncle, will keep these things for you for now. The reason why your storage bag can't fit this hammers is very simple. Master craftsmen of our humankind still can't make storage magic treasures that are sturdy enough! "
A trace of bitterness and helplessness flashed across Si Wen Ming's face, then he said blandly, "When you come to Pu Ban City, you will learn many things."
He looked at the mountains outside of the window, which were constantly moving backwards, and said in a deep voice, "Including why we have to follow the caravan and travel across millions of miles to return to the Midland, instead of directly using the teleporting magic formation... Because we, our humankind still can't build a teleporting magic formation that can transport us such a long distance. Because our humankind is still not powerful enough! "
The humankind, still not powerful enough?
Ji Hao nodded as if he had understood something.
At this moment, the gigantic turtle abruptly stopped again. Gui Three, who had just been smashed and vomited blood, stood on the watchtower and yelled excitedly, "Oi, turtle ancestor! Eight hundred miles to the east, someone is going back! Hm, you have earned hundreds of jade coins out of nowhere, you will at least have enough money for your food next month! "
