Chapter 455: Matsue collection

Ryan has been to several wizarding business districts before, in addition to Diagon Alley in England, and Saga Street in Iceland. But the Songjiang collection of the heavenly dynasty is very different from them.
The first point is big. Whether it is Diagon Alley or Saga Street, they are just a variety of shops around one or two streets. The Songjiangji is not like this at all. It is more like an alternative imitation of the outer business district of Chenghuang Temple. In the middle is a beautiful pool with an exquisite Jiuqu Bridge above it for easy communication. And around the pool is a variety of shops, which sell a variety of things.
"How does it feel very different from Diagon Alley?" Hermione looked at the wizards on the street and said that the difference here does not mean that there are many people on the street or buildings with oriental styles on both sides of the street. The style of the streets is more biased towards the ordinary world outside. This is true whether it ’s tiled roads, street lights on the street, or clothes from wizards coming and going. Only the sign in front of the shop and the products inside through the glass window can prove that they are indeed on a wizard's commercial street.
It may be that they stood at the intersection and looked around a little longer. A young man in a plaid suit came over and said in very fluent English: "Hello, do you have any help? I can provide you with a guide, Shopping guide and translation services. Only 20 silver coins are needed a day. "
"How much is it if no translation is needed?" Lane said in very standard Mandarin. "Can there be a discount for one less service? I don't think we need translation services."
"Do you speak Mandarin? That would be great. There is no less money, because it is uniformly regulated, but I can find you the best store for you to play here." The young man said To.
"Okay, deal." Ryan took out 20 Seco and put it in the young man's hand, but the young man glanced at it and said he could not collect the money. "Have you not exchanged the money here? This foreign money is not available here."
So their first travel destination was Tianzhao Alchemist Bank. No matter where the financial institution is always magnificent, Tianchao Alchemist Bank is no exception. Under the guidance of this guide named Li Lei, they walked across the Jiuqu Bridge to exchange money for the tallest building opposite the pond.
As they walked across the Jiuqu Bridge, they saw several black shadows emerging from the water and quickly approached. After those black shadows approached the lake, white marks appeared on the lake behind them.
"Is this?" Ryan asked, looking at the shadows that were almost as dark as torpedoes underwater. But he didn't think there would be any danger, because this is one of the biggest wizarding markets in Tianchao, and he is not Conan. So the probability of just being in danger is not high. Not to mention that the surrounding wizards of the Tian Dynasty did not react violently.
"Oh, they." Li Lei said after glancing at the shadow. "They are sharks from the East China Sea. This pond has a channel leading to the East China Sea. People from sharks often bring some precious seafood and specialty products from the seabed to trade here. You are lucky today. These specialties from the ocean New products are often sold out within a short period of time. I personally recommend that you take a look after you get the money, maybe you can find something you like. "
"It's so beautiful! It's much better than those fishmen in the Black Lake." Just when Li Lei introduced Ryan to Hermione, he whispered softly. Ryan turned his gaze and found that the shadows quickly emerged from the water. As soon as the upper body emerged from the water, the colorful fish tails became human feet. Under the leadership of a middle-aged female shark, the six sharks walked out along the stone steps that didn't enter the pool.
The appearance of these sharks is indeed much more beautiful than those of the murlocs in the Black Lake. It looks like a slightly taller human, with a beautiful appearance and tall body. The only difference from humans is that the skin is more supple and fairer. At the same time, they can see that in short-sleeved shorts, they have some colored scales on their joints and forehead, and their ears are similar to fins. However, these racial characteristics did not reduce their face value, but made them look more beautiful.
"Okay, here we are." Just across the Jiuqu Bridge is a small square with a large flower bed in the middle. Bypassing the flower bed is the building of the Tianzhao Alchemist Bank. This is a five-story building, which stands out from the surrounding low-rise shops. And beside the gate with vermilion and gold nails, a hairy figure stood.
"Hey, Ryan, look. They are pandas." Hermione shook Ryan's arm with some excitement, and stood beside the bank door as a welcome (only?) A panda standing upright in a beautiful tuxedo.
"Well, it's a little different, you can call them Pandaren." Because Hermione uses Mandarin, Li Lei whispered after hearing what Hermione said. "It should be called Pi Yao according to our name, but they grew up with the earliest wizards of the heaven, and they are regarded as the most non-human allies of the wizards here. The pandaren's nature is kind, loyal and friendly, but there is one thing It ’s important to remember that they love wealth very much. Although they do n’t use any evil means to obtain wealth, they should remember to be optimistic about their wallets when they sell to you later, otherwise it ’s very easy A lot of so-called financial investment products that are not much use come out. "
"Okay, this is a little different from what I imagined." When he entered the door, he looked at the black and white bear face Ryan who smiled with a smile on the panda's door. "It's a real bear."
After entering the door is a tall wooden structure hall, on the roof is an extremely gorgeous painted gold algae well. In addition to the beautiful appearance, Lane also felt that the algae well was actually a powerful magic circle, and the bead spit out from the middle of the algae well was the array of eyes.
Halls are lined with rows of wrought iron chairs. When the wizards enter the door, they will press a button on a brass machine next to it, and the machine will spit out a note marked with Arabic numerals. Then they will wait in the chair.
Apart from the door, all three sides of the hall are long counters with thick transparent glass. Every once in a while a panda person sits behind the counter, some are weighing gold with a small steelyard, and some are identifying gems. Others are there to receive a customer who came to handle the business.
Ryan they were lined up in front of the corresponding pandaren counter soon after receiving the number. Don't look at the pandaren's size, but the voice of the voice is a baby voice with a milk sound. It sounds very cute.
But when faced with gold coins, they are not so cute. After redeeming five hundred gallons, the pandaren in front of Lane recommended some kind of financial fund. He declined many times before getting out of the passionate pandaren.
When walked out of the bank gate, Ryan began to measure the currency withdrawn. The currency of the Wizard of Heaven is divided into four kinds of gold, silver, bronze and bronze. The ratio between them is 1:10, which is more humane than the currency exchange of British wizards. Bronze coins have the lowest value, each of which is equivalent to a dime of ordinary people's currency, and the highest value of gold coins is equivalent to one hundred yuan.
In order to maintain this ratio, the size of gold coins to bronze coins is increasing. The largest bronze coin is as big as a beer bottle cap and is made very thin. But the smallest gold coin is only a little bigger than a shirt button. However, these currencies are beautifully cast regardless of size. There is a shallow square depression in the center of the currency, which should be a commemoration of the ancient round copper coins with square holes. On the front, the two characters of Tongbao are written on both sides of the square hole, and the symbol of the sun and the moon is erected on the back.
The most interesting thing is that the wizard currency can be exchanged for RMB in an unlimited amount, but the reverse is strictly restricted. In the market outside, only magic-related goods must use wizard currency, and many daily necessities can even be paid directly in RMB. Probably because the magic world of the dynasty was not as closed as the British magic world.
With a pack of money ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Lane they started their shopping journey. The first stop is the Donghai boutique of those sharks people. In the store, Lane bought a lot of sharks. On the one hand, because this textile is indeed beautiful, on the other hand, Lane found that this textile is actually an alchemical material. Can be used to refine clothing with magic effects.
Ryan asked the croaker salesman if he could order for a long time after buying, because he wanted to buy some raw materials for his store. Unfortunately, the production of these things is random, and cannot guarantee a fixed supply. So Ryan can only regret to give up this idea.
"Lane, we are here to travel. Could you put your work aside for now." After Ryan finished talking about things, Hermione said a little unhappy. "Sometimes there is a time for rest--"
"Sorry, this is not my right." Ryan admitted that he was doing something wrong now.
The next time they took a good tour of the entire Songjiang collection, tasted a variety of delicious special snacks, and bought a lot of souvenirs for friends. At this time, we can see the importance of finding a good guide. With the help of Li Lei, they can buy the best things at the most suitable price. For example, some special magic spices, some wooden signs with seal characters that have certain damage to evil creatures. And some handicrafts with local characteristics.
Finally, they spent 20 minutes to obtain the local law enforcement permission.
In short, this day was a rewarding day, and it also started a good start for Ryan's trip to heaven.
