Chapter 1873 Large Trade Fair

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

At this moment, 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 capital. It's a rare opportunity!"

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

"Quick, go!"

A 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 of these raw materials in the mustard seed space by himself, as that would be too time-consuming.

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 the 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 square was filled with people, and new people were constantly pouring into the square.

Su Chen glanced around and saw that the guards' helmets all had bright royal symbols. He was very familiar with this symbol, because the carriage in 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, these people might not even come.

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

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

As soon as they entered the square, they found that a trading area had been set up inside. Rows of stalls and rows of trading desks are very bustling and lively.

Moreover, these stalls include everything. Whether it's elixirs, artifacts, secrets of martial arts, talismans, monsters...it's all there.

As Su Chen walked along, he was dazzled by the stalls on both sides of the road. However, he thought about the alchemy materials he needed, but two of them could not be seen in these stalls.

Su Chen also knew that those two materials were relatively rare. Therefore, it may only be found in large businesses and stores.

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 was clearly a follower of Xu Zhi's side. When Xu Zhi ran to Prince Shang's Mansion to challenge Su Chen, he had this follower beside him. However, because he is just a follower, he 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: "Steward, I found the guy who had a conflict with Master Lang and Master Zhi in the academy. , he seems to have come to the fair to buy something!”

"Really?" The person who was called the steward looked shrewd and looked in Su Chen's direction after hearing this. However, after just one glance, he immediately moved away.

This is a steward of the Xu family. He came to the trade fair today because the Xu family has a shop that is attending 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 Central Continent. He has no foundation. He is not even as good as those country people from the mountains."

The follower Hui 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 such young warriors under their command. They say they are recruiting, but in fact they just bring them to the royal capital and then let them develop on their own. This is basically equivalent to Stocking.

The advantage of doing this is that you can cast a wide net. Among the hundreds or thousands of such young warriors, there will always be those who can become talented in the future. However, because there are too many people, it means that the palace will basically not care about these young geniuses, nor will they really regard them as their own people.

Therefore, if the Xu family wanted to teach Su Chen a lesson, there was no need to be afraid of Prince Shang's Mansion. In a certain sense, Prince Shang's Mansion even encourages others to do this, because real gold 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 a veteran in this area, "Here
