Chapter 147 146. Steel Street
The two of them were just like they were in the magical world, with Lan leading Aria around the lively and unfamiliar place.
The situation in King's Landing is consistent with Lann's reasonable imagination of a medieval town.
The moment you exit the gate of the Red Fort, the stench and dirty street scene emerge before your eyes.
The two first asked for directions and walked towards the port.
King's Landing's harbors are home to ships from nearly the entire world.
Ships from Westeros continent will dock in the capital, and ships from Essos continent across the narrow sea will also come here to conduct cross-continent trade.
If Lan En is interested in the novel animal and plant materials in this world, he must first observe a wide enough range.
People of all races gather in the Port of King's Landing.
The white-skinned warriors and traveling merchants of Westeros, the big brown-skinned merchants wearing silk robes and silk slippers across the sea, and even the occasional people on horseback with long braids and bells hanging on their braids. Mercenaries.
These people brought special products from all over the world and brought them back to their hometown from King's Landing, hoping to make a huge profit from the price difference.
Lan En pulled Aaliya back and forth between various temporary stalls in the turbulent flow of people.
"The Haunted Grass of the Shadowlands! Behold, this is the lightless grass from Asshai!"
"The fur of the white lion on the sea of Dothraki grass! An arrow can pierce it. Heart, complete and flawless!”
Amidst the hustle and bustle of sales, Alia, a local, looked excited and dizzy.
On the contrary, Lan En, a foreigner, remained unmoved.
Just kidding, I thought I was not a foreigner in the magical world! Why don't you still pick on and bargain with those profiteers!
Among the dazzling array of products, Lan En and Mentos quickly developed a selection mechanism.
For example, he would rub herbs and plants with his hands like he was looking at the product, and then put his fingers in his mouth to taste.
Mentos can accurately summarize the properties of the medicine based on these micro-samples.
As for animal materials such as fur, leather, huge teeth, and huge bones, Lan En would pretend to observe closely and lower his body, bringing his roaring bear head necklace close to observe whether there was any vibration.
According to the available data in this world, the most powerful single creature should be the dragon.
Every other creature that people see and come into contact with seems to be very ordinary.
In this case, let’s screen out the worthless things based on whether they contain magic power.
After the selection mechanism was established, Lan En’s shopping speed has been greatly improved.
Most of the time he spent at each stall would not exceed ten seconds, and so far he had not found anything worthy of his attention.
Most herbal medicines have similar medicinal effects in the magical world, and most of the animal-based materials are mainly beautiful and gorgeous, but lackluster in practicality.
“Most of the things here are going to the general market. Is it possible that the really valuable things are going to the black market?”
After walking around, Lan En tasted the products and thought it was This means.
Now he is rapidly moving in the market, and his appearance is very eye-catching, and Alondette is obviously extraordinary with just a sword hilt exposed on his back
In his perception, many people in this market have paid their attention to him covertly.
On several occasions, a few businessmen who looked normal even exposed him to prices that were almost unprofitable, and even offered free door-to-door delivery.
Obviously, he wanted to find out his address and use his address to determine whether Lan En could afford to be offended and whether he could 'do something' with him.
If Mentos hadn't already established a price model for this world, Lan wouldn't have even noticed that they had set the price at this level and paid for it as a normal transaction.
Of course, there is no problem in reporting your address, but it is estimated that these businessmen will have to deliver their things to the Prime Minister's Tower while holding their noses. "Aliya, it's time to go."
Grabbing the collar of the little girl's neck who wanted to run forward, Lan Enti slipped her towards the outside of the port market.
Most of the goods are worthless and eye-catching. Lan En was not prepared to stay any longer.
He still wanted to catch a gangster and follow the line like he did in Vizima. No matter what, he should find some signs of the black market.
But now in Westeros, the body temperature feels like autumn.
Even gang members don't go bare-chested to show tattoos and gang insignia.
In a city of half a million people, everyone wears dirty linen shirts, and their faces are covered with a mixture of dust and sweat. The hardship of life is reflected in their eyes and faces, which become 'not easy to mess with' and 'mind your own business'.
Who can tell who is a gang member?
"We won't go shopping anymore? I see there's a lot of fun there! There are materials I haven't seen before!"
Aaliyah laughed sheepishly.
Lan En had long been accustomed to her being active and playful, so he didn't care.
“Every commodity on the ordinary market can be replaced in Temeria. What I want to find is something that I can only buy when I go back. Let’s go shopping like this. Let’s share the harvest of a few months. Maybe it’s not as good as your father’s words.”
Although Ed collected it and followed it up with Lan En’s hands.
But Lan En didn’t want to get nothing after asking for the right to freely enter and leave the Red Keep. This was too ugly.
The two people were talking and walking. They were both new to the city and were not very familiar with the environment and routes of King's Landing.
I just felt that the smelly sea breeze blowing from the port was gradually disappearing, and instead, a faint heat wave and the sound of "ding-dong-dang-dang" began to come from not far away in front of me.
Looking up, I saw a steel sign hanging on the upper edge of the street door frame.
"Steel Street?" Aaliya looked up at Lan En, who was also looking up at the iron sign.
“This is a place that sells armor and weapons. It’s hard to find alchemy materials, right?”
Lan En crossed his arms and tilted his head.
"Not necessarily. In the magical world, blacksmiths will use monster materials to participate in forging. After the finished product, some will ask warlocks to etch runes on it with crystal powder to make magic weapons."
"Although There is no magic here now, but if a dragon appears, the blacksmiths may also buy some weird things to add to the crafts?”
Lan waved his hand and asked Aria to follow him here. Walk on an uphill street.
We’re all here, so there’s nothing wrong with just strolling around.
Anyway, most of the salary Duke Ed gave him as a guard was used to let him look after Aria.
Lan En felt that the Duke was really making a lot of money. No one would be willing to pay such a little girl the salary of a guard.
Since we are looking for a blacksmith who knows how to add things during the steel forging process, these blacksmith shops at the lower end of the ramp do not look like large shops with craftsmanship and business.
Lan En took the excited Aria directly to the top of the ramp.
At the top of the Steel Street ramp, the sound of tinkling came from a blacksmith shop.
"Gendry! Stop beating your horned helmet and go greet the guests."
