Translator: 549690339
The merchants of the foreign races moved back and forth non-stop, and it took them a whole day to walk around the commercial district.
Although their legs were sore and their mouths were dry, everyone was in high spirits.
In just one day, they had seen too many new and interesting goods, and had repeatedly marveled at the abundance of resources in the Holy Dragon city’s business district!
They had been doing business for many years and could be said to be experienced and knowledgeable, but they had to admit that the Holy Dragon city’s commercial district was the best place they had ever seen.
A market of this scale could not even be seen in the high-end buildings in the distance.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, the foreign merchants prepared to return to the temporarily rented caves and inns to rest as usual.
The nights in the world of loucheng were extremely boring. In other places, the merchants would either go to the taverns for a drink or go back to sleep early!
But just as these foreign merchants were about to leave the commercial district, they saw more and more Holy Dragon City residents.
They swarmed into the commercial district in groups, and everyone’s expression was very excited.
Most of these residents were dressed in brand new clothes and were clean. Some girls even had light makeup on, making them look bright and beautiful.
Whether it was his appearance or his mental state, he gave these foreign merchants a huge shock.
The humans in other places did not have such spirit!
The Holy Dragon city’s residents had an indescribable feeling.
They were neither humble nor arrogant, and at the same time, there was a faint sense of pride in their words and actions.
Looking at the confident residents of the Holy Dragon City, these foreign merchants who had originally looked down on the human race slowly put away their contemptuous hearts.
They even had a faint sense of inferiority, because the clothes of these residents were even better than those of the wealthy merchants!
Lowering their heads and glancing at the long and short robes they were wearing, these merchants reminded themselves that they had to go to the clothing store tomorrow and buy a new set of similar clothes.
But what were these Holy Dragon City residents doing in the commercial district at sunset? were they having a bonfire party?
The non-human merchants who had nothing to do didn’t rush back to rest. Instead, they stayed and watched.
However, it didn’t take long for these foreign merchants to open their eyes and mouth wide in shock.
When night fell, the commercial district immediately fell into a sea of joy and lights.
After the lighting system of the flashing gold race had been improved, it was perfectly arranged in the commercial district. Once it was activated, the place immediately became colorful and gorgeous!
Whether it was the tall buildings, the sides of the road, or even the flowerbeds, they were all cleverly installed with lighting equipment.
Under these lights, the business district became a city that never slept, as beautiful as a Fairyland.
These foreign-race merchants were mixed in the crowd, feeling that their eyes were not enough to see.
On the White benches by the roadside, in the lively taverns, and on the fence by the canal, the Holy Dragon City residents were everywhere with carefree expressions.
After a day of work, they began to enjoy the rare leisure time.
As they were walking, a loud noise suddenly came from the sky, attracting everyone’s attention.
A colorful stream of light shot into the night sky. It was extremely beautiful against the night sky.
After the stream of light rose high into the sky, it paused for a moment before exploding, bursting out with a colorful brilliance!
“Oh my God, this is too beautiful!”
“This is a firework, it’s a good thing the city Lord brought back!”
that’s the square. Let’s go and take a look!
While everyone was talking, more and more fireworks began to bloom in the sky. As they looked at the beautiful scenery in the night sky, there were constant exclamations and praises.
The foreign merchants were also amazed and quickly followed the crowd to the square.
At this time, the square was full of people watching the fireworks, but because of the Square’s size, it did not seem crowded.
At this time, in the huge square of the commercial district, there was a continuous stream of fireworks in the sky, causing the onlookers to exclaim in surprise!
In the main city area separated by a row of mountains, the mother tree was not willing to be left out either. Countless rainbow-colored brilliance slowly rose from its branches and leaves, erupting with an even more dazzling brilliance!
The mother tree, who loved to show off, would never allow her beauty to be compared to other things.
The brilliance of the mother tree and the fireworks in the commercial district complemented each other. The entire sky of Holy Dragon City was instantly dyed with a brilliant light.
The fireworks continued for half an hour and slowly ended in the reluctant eyes of the crowd.
The non-human merchants were speechless for a long time. After watching the splendid fireworks, they were all intoxicated.
In their excitement, the foreign merchants also decided that they must buy some fireworks to bring back.
When they imagined themselves setting off fireworks, the scene of thousands of people watching them satisfied their vanity.
After watching the fireworks, the Holy Dragon city’s residents began to travel around.
The commercial district was huge, and it was the first time for many of them to come here. Naturally, they wanted to take a good look around.
In a Tavern on a certain Street, Huo Lu and seven or eight foreign merchants were gathered together.
On their table were the delicacies prepared by the restaurant’s chef. They were delicious and exquisite, making people drool.
More than half of the bottle of white wine was drunk, and everyone’s face had a trace of aftertaste.
Compared to the wine he had drunk before, Holy Dragon city’s white wine was more mellow, had a stronger aftertaste, and had a longer aftertaste.
Although the few of them were intoxicated by the fireworks, the night view, and the delicious food of the business district, they were more concerned about those magical application cards!
The reason they had gathered together was to discuss how to get a set of application cards at the auction.
There were countless small gatherings like this in the commercial district.
These foreign-race merchants were all holding back their energy, wanting to win the competition.
The foreign merchants that fire rude had gathered were all acquaintances. They trusted each other very much, and could cooperate with each other without any worries.
After some discussion, everyone decided to take out 200000 brain beads each. In total, they had 1.6 million brain beads.
If it wasn’t enough, they could continue to increase the investment, but it couldn’t exceed two million brain beads!
After everyone finished their discussion, they immediately clapped their hands and drank the wine in their glasses.
After calling for the waiter to settle the bill, Huo Lu threw out two notes. Then, everyone headed to the area where the Holy Dragon auction house was located.
Passing through the bustling crowd, Huo Lu and the others soon arrived at the brightly lit auction house. They strode into the bright and spacious hall.
At this moment, the hall that could accommodate thousands of people was filled with foreign merchants who were full of ambition. They kept glancing at the potential opponents around them with very serious expressions.
Huo Lu and the others were first led to a room. Then, someone pressed a flashing black box in front of them.
After walking around the commercial district for a day, Huo Lu and the others had gained some knowledge. They knew that they were using something called a camera, which could take pictures of the scenery.
What shocked them the most was that the photos spat out by the camera were so lifelike that they looked no different from real people.
It didn’t take long for Huo Lu and the others to receive a card with their own photos.
The staff in the commercial district told them that as long as they spent a certain amount in the auction, they could upgrade their level and get more discounts.
Fire Lu thought for a moment. He really admired the marketing methods of this auction house.
After finding a place to sit down, Huo Lu and the others waited for the auction to begin in silence.
Time passed by slowly, and more and more foreign merchants entered the auction.
While they were still in a state of anxiety, the auction finally began!
