That is the Eastern language.

And the language she originally used was different from the language used by Future Line No. [-]. It sounded like Dongguo language, and some words were the same, but there were also some words that I had never heard before, and it sounded more like some kind of pronunciation. Same as the formal dialect.

Shen Shi is not surprised that the language of the future is different from the modern one. Even in the modern age, the ancient vocabulary is quite different from the modern one. Maintaining cultural inheritance does not mean sticking to everything, and it is only normal to have changes.

At least, the person in front of him seems to be equally proficient in the "old language".

"You can call me Zeren." Shen Shi simply smiled.

At the same time, observe the other party to see if there is anything unreasonable in not telling the family history.

When you come to this brand new black market, although you don't need to be as cautious as when you first entered the black market of the No. [-] future line, there is nothing wrong with observing a lot of information when you don't know it.

"Mr. Zeren's name, is it possible that it is taken from the "Book of Rites? Employment", 'A gentleman in the past is more virtuous than Yuyan, gentle and lustrous, and benevolent'?" Peggy suddenly uttered a real sentence. old saying.

Shen Shi was taken aback.

Then he laughed and said, "Not many people know this."

This is indeed the source of the name, and it is indeed a former name of Shen Shi. When the father named his younger brother "Zeyuan", the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the name "Shen Shi" was too much. Simple, I want to change his name.

It's just that Shen Shi was already five years old at that time, and he had already remembered his original name, so he gave up in the end.

At this time, it was just used casually as an alternative name, but I didn't expect that the source would be revealed in one word.

It seems that even people on this future line still attach great importance to the culture of the Earth and Star Era.

"It seems that Mr. Zeren has never heard of our Greyston family." Peggy tilted her head and said with a light smile, "We were separated from the Huaiyang Li clan of the Eastern Kingdom 300 years ago. Descendants, the family is based on the "Book of Rites", but I did not expect that Mr. Zeren's name also came from this book, no wonder I and Mr. Zeyuan were so destined to enter this place at the same time."

"..."

There is a lot of information in this paragraph.

Shen Shi guessed that the person in front of him should have come up to talk to him because he had just entered here, but he didn't expect that this was a branch of the Dongguo clan that was split off more than 1000 years ago.

No wonder there is a word "Li" in her name.

Shen Shi suddenly realized that no one knew how huge the number of human beings on this timeline had grown to.

You must know that there are as many as 700 billion human beings on the No. [-] future line, and most of them are distributed in the solar system.

What about this future line?

Shen Shi seemed to have vaguely grasped some important information, but the situation in front of him obviously didn't have time for him to think about it.

"It is indeed destined." He smiled.

"Mr. Zeren, is there anything you want to trade?" Peggy saw that Shen Shi admitted that she was destined, her eyes were obviously bright, she walked up a few steps, and said with a smile, "Peggy is just here to experience this time, and there is no For a special purpose, if Mr. Zeren allows, why not go with Peggy?"

"..." Shen Shi thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "Okay."

In fact, he felt that Miss Peggy in front of him seemed a little too enthusiastic.

Because in comparison, he actually behaved quite indifferently.

However, after thinking about it, he felt that this was also a good opportunity to quickly understand this future line and this almost unrecognizable black market.

During the conversation, there will always be a lot of news revealed.

After he agreed, a virtual frame popped up in front of him.

"Peggy Bernice Lee Graystone wants to be your friend, do you agree?"

This is the...friend function?

Another new feature that wasn't there before.

Although he could also contact the public through the black market before, but that was after the transaction had already been completed.

"agree."

The moment Shen Shi gave a reply, Peggy received the terminal message, but when she saw Shen Shi's registration name, her eyes lit up.

antique dealer.

In the entire market, there are countless antique dealers, but no matter whether it is selling or buying, it requires extremely strong strength. However, no one directly uses the three words "antique dealer" as their name.

This requires qualifications recognized by all antique dealers.

It's like there are many collectors in the entire market, but there is only one person who can really use the word "collector" as his name.

As for the antique dealer, such a character has not yet appeared.

"Mr. Zeren is really confident." Peggy said with a light smile.

Although she felt that this should be because the other party did not understand the rules here enough, but using this name so directly was enough to show her confidence.

Unexpectedly, I just wanted to get to know more people, to see if I could find someone who also had the Holy Land terminal, and engraved the seal of the marriage contract, but the first person I came into contact with seemed extraordinary.

Shen Shi didn't know what Peggy was thinking, but he probably guessed the meaning of her words.

She smiled and said, "I can't talk about confidence, but in terms of antiques, I do have some wealth. Since Peggy has no special purpose, why don't you go to an antique shop with me?"

"Of course." Peggy saluted again, her long skirt shaking slightly.

The aura of this outfit was indeed as Shen Shi had imagined at first, his gestures were as graceful as a willow blowing in the wind.

Maybe Ai Xin'er should also get a dress like this.

Shen Shi thought in his heart.

It's just that to achieve this effect, the material is not easy, and maybe it can be traded directly from here.

But what is more important right now is to understand this market, especially the market for antiques.

So, Shen Shi walked towards a certain antique shop together with this Miss Peggy whom he just met.

"Miss Peggy doesn't look like she's here for the first time." Shen Shi didn't forget his purpose of agreeing to be with this Miss Peggy.

See if you can find out more.

"Mr. Zeren should also know that this place can only be a mysterious legend for people without a terminal, so mysterious that it can only be described by the word 'Holy Land', but for those who have obtained a terminal, the relationship between each other Therefore, after getting the terminal, the first thing I did was to find my great-grandpa, another terminal owner, and ask about everything about it—it is so It is so magical and powerful that our civilization can have what it is today, and its achievements are second only to the great sages of Shen Shi..." Peggy kept her eyes on her surroundings, and although she didn't reveal her emotions, she didn't hide herself Everyone can see her clear sense of respect.

It's like coming to a sacred place.

Shen Shi could understand such a mood.

The more you know about Interstellar, the more you can feel the power of this black market terminal.

Even in the land of Gus, it is impossible to master such a technology.

This is a teleportation that ignores distance, not to mention the great convenience of storage in that huge personal space.

The owner of the terminal can put all his property in, and can take it out at any time.

Not to mention the benefits of trading.

It is extremely helpful to the entire civilization and to individuals.

If you are a person in the future, you will also feel excited when you suddenly know that your civilization has such an incredible hole card.

But after a few simple conversations with Peggy, Shen Shi realized that Peggy seemed to be intentionally sharing some information that she knew, as if she wanted to use this to get closer, and he almost guessed that Peggy was so The reason for the enthusiasm—the person who can own the market terminal can be said to hold the shortcut to the human status pyramid.

Therefore, here, establishing contact with others, or even making friends, can obtain benefits second only to transactions.

For Peggy, as a newcomer, the easiest to make friends with is naturally a newcomer like her.

That's how she struck up a conversation.

Sure enough, her initial introduction said that she was the new head of the Greyston family. As the leader of a power, even if she was inherited, she was unlikely to be a person who had no city and was passionate about everyone.

Probably guessing the other party's intentions, it made Shen Shi feel a lot easier.

Interests and emotions have never been contradictory. Even in modern society, there are not many pure emotional relationships that do not contain any interests.

"We're here." Shen Shi and Peggy walked in front of an antique shop.

"here is......"

Peggy raised her head and saw "Gu Fang Zhai" in big Chinese characters.

The introduction of this shop immediately appeared in her mind.

"Mr. Zeren, this is an antique pawn shop, but it's not just an antique transaction, it's mainly about acquisitions."

"I know." Shen Shi smiled, "But pawn shops are the fastest place to understand market conditions."

He opened his feet and walked in directly.

The building structure of the entire store is two two-story corridor-style courtyard houses. The existing eight-character platform gate is built with native stones.

Shen Shi could tell at a glance that this was the style of the Republic of China, and it was still a prototype of the Republic of China pawnshop.

However, whether it is the newness of the house or the exquisiteness of the decoration, it lacks a sense of the vicissitudes of history and has a sense of high-end luxury.

Chapter 156: The Trading Item That Is Misunderstood

Shen Shi actually quite liked this decoration style.

If it is to be completely made exactly like its prototype, it will look too rustic.

Again, attaching importance to inheritance does not mean completely sticking to it.

Preserving the charm and highlighting the essence is the correct way.

He and Peggy went straight in, and someone greeted them immediately.

It was a young man in a coat, who looked quite young, with a strong body, and a smile on his face, exuding a friendly emotion.

"Welcome to Gufang Pavilion, are you two looking for something or something?"

The words spoken are not the Eastern language used in modern times, but similar to the language used by Peggy, but the proportion of ancient Chinese in the whole sentence is relatively high, even if there is no need for translation, Shen Shi can still get a rough idea.

"Dang." He laughed.

"If you want to be an antique, the two customers have come to the right place. In the whole market, our Gufangge is the pawnshop with the highest price for antiques, even surpassing many antique dealers, and the pawnshop always accepts visitors. We collect everything from inheritance treasures to ordinary stones." This young man was obviously quite talkative.

But now Shen Shi is a talkative person.

"Are you the boss here?" Shen Shi asked.

"The guest is joking. The people who can open a store here are all extraordinary. I am just a hired employee. The owner is now participating in an auction on Ximeng Street. If there are any treasures that are not stable, I will notify you. The host is coming over, by the way, the guest can be addressed as Xiaoxi." Xiaoxi enthusiastically welcomed Shen Shi and the others into the room.

"I also heard from my great-grandfather that many people want to become store employees. If they succeed, they can get part of the rewards from the transaction." Peggy seemed to have obvious longing for such a job.

On the outside, she may be the head of a big family, but how can everyone here be simple?

For example, the waiter in front of him who called himself "Xiaoxi" might be a well-known general in some legion.

The strong in the entire human civilization may not be here, but all the strong here must be.

Even if it is not now, as long as it is not dead, it must be in the future.

This is why Peggy is so enthusiastic about Shen Shi, she is not for Shen Shi, but anyone here deserves to be treated warmly.

"If this lady wants to find a job, maybe you can ask the boss later. As far as I know, the boss has four stores here, which are very powerful and lack people." Xiao Xi seemed to have heard Peggy's words, Not surprising either.

And from these words, he probably guessed that these two people might be newcomers who just came to the market.

At the moment, his mind was also slightly calmed down, but he didn't see the slightest bit.

After all, most of these newcomers are mainly based on experience and investigation. Everyone is a person with strength and status, and they will not make large transactions as soon as they come up.

"If that's the case, then I will definitely fight for it." Peggy smiled generously, and it was obvious that she did have something on her mind.

Shen Shi did not speak at the side, but silently analyzed and felt the style in the market.

Afterwards, the two were taken into a side room.

From the outside it may seem like a small space, but once you enter, you will feel luxurious inside.

All the decorations are made of modern precious wood, with an antique look, and in the middle is a mahogany octagonal table. Xiao Xi sat on the other side of the table, raised his hand slightly to Shen Shi and said, "Please, guests."

He could tell that the one who really wanted to trade was the man in front of him.

Although I don't expect the other party to come up with any good treasures, but as he said, the characteristic of pawnshops is that they never refuse.

Even if it is a stone from the Earth and Star period, he will accept it.

It's just that unless there is a certain amount, no money will be given.

Shen Shi narrowed his eyes slightly.

In his personal space, there are still a lot of "antiques", but he originally wanted to take out an "ancient book" to test it out, but suddenly changed his mind.
