After walking around for a few times, Su Chen finally had a general understanding of the elixir market in the royal capital.

At this time, Su Chen discovered that there were more and more pedestrians on the commercial street, and everyone was rushing in the same direction.

"Hurry up, we won't be able to get in if it's too late."

"That's right, today is the annual large-scale trade fair in the royal capital. It's a rare opportunity!"

"Many large-scale businesses and shops in the royal capital will set up stalls at large-scale trade fairs today to display their products for everyone to compare and choose. Such opportunities are rare.

!”

"Quick, hurry up!"

Large trade fair?

Su Chen thought, it would be a good time to go take a look and learn about the prices of alchemy materials in the royal capital.

After all, if he wants to open an elixir shop, a large number of raw materials are indispensable. It is impossible for him to grow all these raw materials in the mustard seed space by himself. That would be too time-consuming.

It's time.

Therefore, the price of raw materials is very critical, which is related to the cost of the elixir store, in other words, how much profit the elixir store can make.

At this moment, Su Chen walked forward along with the flow of people.

Not long after, we arrived at a large square in the center of the commercial street.

The square was now surrounded by heavily armed guards, and the inside of the square was crowded with people, and new people were constantly pouring into the square.

Su Chen glanced around and saw that the helmets of the guards all had bright royal symbols. He was very familiar with this symbol because the carriage of Prince Shang's palace also had this symbol.

.

"It's the royal guards who are maintaining order. It seems that this large-scale trade fair is sponsored by the royal family."

Su Chen thought the same thing. Many large businesses and shops in the royal capital were owned by families with big surnames. If the organizer of this large-scale trade fair was not the royal family, what would happen to these people?

I can't even come at all.

It is only because of the royal family's reputation that these large commercial shops can be brought together in one place.

At that moment, Su Chen followed the flow of people and walked into the square.

As soon as we entered the square, we found that a trading area had been set up. Rows of stalls and rows of trading desks were very busy and lively.

Moreover, these stalls include everything. Whether it is elixirs, artifacts, secret books of martial arts, talismans, monsters... everything is available.

As Su Chen walked along, he was dazzled by the stalls on both sides of the road. However, he thought of the alchemy materials he needed, and two of them were found among these stalls.

Less than.

Su Chen also knew that those two materials were relatively rare. Therefore, only those large businesses and stores might have them.

But those large businesses and shops are not in this ordinary area, but in the VIP area.

The VIP area, as the name suggests, is for receiving noble guests.

The merchants who can set up stalls in the VIP area are all the first-class merchants and large stores in the royal capital.

Su Chen walked towards the VIP area, but before he entered it, a pair of eyes noticed his presence in the VIP area.

This person is clearly a follower of Xu Zhi. When Xu Zhi ran to Prince Shang's Mansion to challenge Su Chen, he was with this follower. However, because he was just a follower.

, so it is not conspicuous.

As soon as the follower saw Su Chen, he immediately lowered his head, then quickly walked to another person, and whispered in that person's ear: "Boss, I found the man who was with Lang in the academy."

Master, the guy who caused the conflict with Master Zhi seems to have come to the trade fair to buy things!"

"Really?" The person who was called the steward had a shrewd look on his face. Hearing this, he also looked in the direction of Su Chen. However, he only glanced at it and immediately moved away.

This is a steward of the Xu family. He came to the trade fair today because a store in the Xu family came to participate in the trade fair today, so he came with him.

"Is that the boy? Who is he?" the steward asked.

"Steward, he has no background. He is just a guy from the mainland of China. He has no foundation. He is not even as good as those country people from the mountains."

The attendant reported, "By the way, he seems to have been recruited by Prince Shang's palace, but the palace did not give him any special preferential treatment. He was probably just recruited casually."

"Yes!" The steward nodded. The two princes often recruit young warriors like this. They say they are recruiting, but in fact they just bring them to the capital and then let them do whatever they want.

Developing on your own is basically equivalent to free-range farming.

The advantage of this is that it can cast a wide net. Among hundreds or thousands of such young warriors, there will always be those who can become talents in the future. However, because there are too many people, it means that the palace

Basically, he doesn't care about these young geniuses, and he doesn't really regard them as his subordinates.

Therefore, if the people of the Xu family want to teach Su Chen a lesson, they don't have to worry about Prince Shang's Mansion. In a certain sense, Prince Shang's Mansion even encourages others to do so, because real gold

It is always tempered by fire. Only in this way can we see whether this young man is real gold and whether he is worth cultivating.

"Let's make some obstacles first so that he can't buy what he wants to buy!"

This steward is obviously an expert in this area, "Teach him a lesson, and he will know that our young master of the Xu family cannot be messed with."

"Yes, a mere warrior from the Central Continent actually dares to challenge the Xu family's majesty. Doesn't he know that the Xu family is the surname of the royal capital? He is really ignorant!"

The follower of Xu Zhi also kept echoing.

Naturally, Su Chen didn't notice this. His attention was on the two alchemy materials he was looking for.

However, after a while, Su Chen felt that something was wrong.

Because every time he went to a stall, he wanted to ask about those two materials, but the answer he got was always no.

"Sorry, we don't sell these two materials."

"Sorry, we happen to be out of stock of these two materials."

Even some stalls clearly had these two materials, but the clerk hurriedly put them away and said: "These two materials are samples and not for sale!"

Su Chen couldn't help but frown, feeling that things were a bit strange.

It stands to reason that these merchants are here to participate in the large-scale trade fair today, aren't they just here to do business?

As a result, the business came to your door. Is there any reason not to sell?

What's more, the things are all there, but they still find various excuses not to sell them.

If other buyers had the same experience, then that would be fine. But according to Su Chen's observation, other customers' purchases went very smoothly, and they never encountered anyone like him.

Such an evil encounter.

No matter which store I go to, they will either not sell it or find various excuses to shirk it.
