Plane Merchant Fancy Death

Chapter 21 Emergencies
The first thing you see is the city wall. From a distance, the city wall is quite magnificent. Of course, this is also in Ye Junwen's prediction. I have analyzed that this time may be a world with more wars, so the city has The city wall is a relatively normal situation.

The city of Ledeska in front of him seemed to be a well-developed city, belonging to a flat city, and it was close to the river as Ye Junwen thought.The black city wall spreads from the river to the other end of the horizon, and the whole city looks thicker.Judging from Ye Junwen's current observations, the architectural style of this city is more like European-style architecture, and it still has a certain flavor.

Walking while watching, Ye Junwen soon came to one of the gates of Ledeska City.Below the city gate, Ye Junwen saw a few guards guarding the city gate, and every person who entered would be checked a little bit by the other party, as if... they had to collect money.Ye Junwen immediately asked Dam in front of him. Sure enough, he had to pay to enter the city. The poll tax was ten copper coins per person.

Of course, Ye Junwen still has money on him. If he got a little closer to observe, Ye Junwen also found that among the money that the previous boss found, the relatively large copper coins meant ten copper coins, because many people in front only gave This is a big copper coin.And the smaller ones should represent 1 copper coin. Ye Junwen counted, and he should have 88 copper coins left.

In this case, Ye Junwen probably has a little understanding of the currency mechanism here. After all, the boss charged him 12 copper coins for the three sesame seed cakes before, which means that each sesame seed cake is 4 copper coins, and the exchange ratio between silver coins and copper coins should be 1. :100, but in terms of purchasing power, this is not very clear yet.

There were not many people waiting at the door, and it was Ye Junwen's turn soon.The inspecting soldier obviously showed a strange expression when he saw Ye Junwen. He probably noticed that Ye Junwen was a little different, but he didn't make things difficult for Ye Junwen. After handing over a large copper coin, the other party also Ye Junwen was let into the city without saying anything.

Walking into the huge city gate, Ye Junwen directly saw a street, but the first impression of this street was not very good for Ye Junwen.The messy and inconsistent buildings along the street on both sides have not been beautified at all, and even garbage can be seen everywhere on the ground. It seems that the operation of this city is not very good.But judging from the outside city wall, the city wall should still be maintained frequently. It seems that the ruler of this city also spent a lot of energy on the military, and the internal affairs are really a bit chaotic.

"Um...brother, we're going to the hotel now. If we're late, we'll have to sleep in the stable. Do you want to join me?" Damu came up behind him and asked.

"The place we live...isn't suitable." Before Ye Junwen could answer, another person next to him said.

"Oh, also..." Damu nodded.Ye Junwen probably understood what they meant. The hotel they stayed in should be the cheapest one, and of course the environment is also the worst. These people mistakenly think that they are still rich, so they think that they should not follow along.However, Ye Junwen estimated that he might not have as much money as these people.

Even so, Ye Junwen still didn't go with them.Soon, several people said goodbye to Ye Junwen.Ye Junwen still has a lot of things to do now, although it's a bit late at night, he should still be able to handle some things.

Ye Junwen repeated in his heart what he had to do, first of all, to investigate the world, then to find a way to sell the goods, and then to find the right things to buy, and the last step was to find the right person to hack him to death.

What I have to do now is to investigate, but the specific investigation items are really uncertain, because there are too many things to know, so Ye Junwen chooses to just stroll around, anyway, just get a general idea first.So Ye Junwen quickly wandered around the city.

About two hours later, Ye Junwen came to a place that looked like a hotel and chose to stay overnight.For Ye Junwen who came to stay at this time, the hotel owner also felt a little strange, but he didn't ask much, since there were rooms anyway.After collecting the travel expenses of 50 copper coins, Ye Junwen also came to his room.

This room is really a relatively simple room, and Ye Junwen couldn't help frowning when he saw the situation in this room.There is nothing else in the room except a bed, a table, a chair, and a small cabinet, but after looking at the quilt on the bed, it is still clean, so there is nothing to choose now, Ye Junwen can only I can accept it.

There were only candles available in the room, Ye Junwen also walked to the table, lit the candles, then took out his notebook and began to record and sort out some of the situations he investigated during his wanderings.

In fact, Ye Junwen did not investigate many cases, mainly because it was too late.Although the current time is estimated to be just after 7 o'clock in the evening, it is already very late in this foreign world, and there are no people on the street, so the previous inn owner found it strange that Ye Junwen came to stay so late.

Judging from the current situation, this world is similar to what Ye Junwen thought, and the approximate technological level should be around the level of the European Middle Ages. Ye Junwen didn't see anything with technological content along the way, including no electric lights, so When it gets dark, there's no one there.But it's not that it's dark at night and you can't see anything. When Ye Junwen came back, he still saw a place with lights, but Ye Junwen didn't go there for the time being.

Second, the prices or purchasing power here are very strange. The food is generally not very expensive. According to what Ye Junwen knows so far, the average commoner can eat a full meal for about ten copper coins, although the food is not very good. .But other things are extremely expensive. For example, a piece of clothing that Ye Junwen saw was obviously crudely made in his opinion, but it was priced at 10 silver coins.Also, passing by a blacksmith's shop, I found a small knife worth 5 silver coins, and an ordinary one-handed sword worth 20 silver coins. Ye Junwen felt that it would be better to buy a kitchen knife from the supermarket than these knives.

So it is obvious that this is a gap in productivity. It seems that simply using something as a benchmark for purchasing power here is not enough. The productivity of the two sides is different, and it is difficult to define this aspect.

After getting a general understanding of the prices here, Ye Junwen came back directly and found a random hotel to rest.For other things, wait until tomorrow morning to continue understanding.Ye Junwen now needs to solve the problem of his future plans, because he thought about it when he was shopping around, it doesn't look very easy for him to sell what he has.

This is not to say that they cannot be sold. After all, I have learned before that my things should be good for the tastes of the people here, but the problem is... from the current situation, the civilians here, most of them are relatively poor.It might be because the place I visited today was originally a slum area. Anyway, at present, Ye Junwen feels that if he targets the market on these common people, he probably won't be able to make much money.There are only so many things I brought, if I sell them at a price they can accept, I may really have to run around and spend a lot of money, and the difficulty of my journey is so great, this speed is estimated to be before I am invincible, It can only reach the level of opening a store.He has already said before that what he wants to take is the high-end route, and things will be more expensive, so the goal now is to find rich people.

So my previous idea was not correct. What I need is not to go to the lord here and open a store, because the store basically sells to ordinary civilians. I want to sell things to those rich people, that is, Said to be aristocrats, or merchants.

So how do you get involved with people on both sides?First of all, merchants... this may be relatively simple, because their own products are relatively special, and they are definitely not available here, so the other party may cooperate with you, but... the other party probably only regards itself as a supplier. Development may be fine in the initial stage, but in the long run, it is not very beneficial to your own plan.

But the other nobleman's side is more troublesome. According to Ye Junwen's experience, it shouldn't be easy for him to establish a relationship with the nobleman.Of course, if you successfully find a nobleman with a relatively high status, it should be the best thing for me, because relying on him can open up a large market, and my future development will be slightly more convenient, but...

"Let's find a way to try the noble way. If it really doesn't work, then find another chamber of commerce to cooperate with." Ye Junwen thought for a while. At present, he still knows nothing about most of the situation, so We can only take one step at a time and see one step at a time.

Sure enough, the development of things is often beyond people's expectations. The next morning, Ye Junwen woke up just to try to see if he could climb up with the biggest nobleman in the city, that is, the city lord. When he was in a relationship, he received a surprising news from the innkeeper.

"What? Clovis, the city lord here, is dead?" Ye Junwen asked in surprise.

"I didn't expect such a horrible thing to happen." The innkeeper here also said with a sad expression, "I don't know what will become of the future of Ledeska City."
