Chapter 189 Huge Transaction (3600 words)
The lord's mansion.
Onik, who had a big belly, looked excitedly at the handsome figure in front of him, held his chest and saluted respectfully.
"Your Excellency Richard, I haven't seen you for two months."
His life was saved by the other party, and he was quite excited to see him again after a long absence.
This trip is not easy.
Richard smiled a little and was also in a good mood.
The arrival of the other party means that the business in Twilight City will finally begin.
"Long time no see, Onik. How is your journey going?"
After saluting, Onike straightened up and shook his head after hearing this.
"When I went back, I encountered another attack by desert bandits. Fortunately, another caravan from the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce was not far away."
"When I came here, I encountered a terrible sandstorm a week ago."
As he spoke, his smile became a little bitter.
If he hadn't escaped death every time, he would have suspected that he was favored by the goddess of misfortune.
Otherwise, why would we be so unlucky during this period of time?
Because of the terrain, some safer routes will be formed in the desert.
The Luanwei Flower Merchant Guild is able to do business across the Death Desert because it has found a safe route.
Like the Twilight City, it is definitely in a dangerous area. If it hadn't been for the last storm and Desert Crown Honey, he wouldn't have come here for the second time. It was too dissuasive.
Only then did Richard remember that last week seemed to be a storm week.
But with him around, no matter how violent the sandstorm is, it will still circle around the Twilight City.
One of the characteristics of the desert master talent is to prevent sandstorms from invading the territory.
A domineering stroke.
After Onik sighed with emotion, he immediately calmed down and got down to business.
"Lord Richard, after I brought the Desert Crown honey back to Solan City, it attracted great attention from the president."
Richard immediately cheered up and looked at the other party with burning eyes.
"What is the attitude of the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce?"
Onik said excitedly.
"After the president tasted it, he was willing to invest in the full purchase."
He added.
“Buy as much as you can!”
The wealthy Luanwei Flower Merchant has the confidence and strength to say this.
Richard's eyes were like daggers, glaring at the other party.
"What price can the Luanwei Flower Merchant Association give?"
Because resources can recruit troops, transactions between indigenous people use resources as currency.
Among them, gold coins have always been the main currency for ordinary goods transactions because of their small size and light weight.
The transactions of top-level items generally use rare resources-gems, crystals and other higher-valued items as currency.
Of course, bartering is normal, it all depends on your choice.
Onik said solemnly.
"The Luanwei Flower Merchant Association is willing to purchase it at a price of 100 gems per unit."
100 units of gems?
Richard frowned slightly.
He has never been to Solan City, and he has not even had direct contact with the outside world in the main plane.
The information is now closed, and I don’t know what the market price is, so I can’t tell whether the price is low or high.
Although you can get a lot of information by relying on player forums, the main plane does not know how broad it is, and one area is different from another, so it is impossible to generalize.
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt helpless.
I made up my mind that I must go to Solan City after finishing what I was doing.
Seeing that Richard was silent, Onik said anxiously.
"Your Excellency Richard, I swear by the God of Merchant, this price is absolutely fair."
"In Solan City, a good bottle of alchemy potion can be sold for 10 units of gems."
"Desert Crown Honey is a consumable item, with 100 gems per unit. Only the nobles can afford it"
Richard didn't say anything. He nodded to Kalu, who had been silent behind him, and he turned around and left the hall.
After a while, he returned with two maids carrying trays.
A very special fragrance began to spread as the two entered the room.
Onik smelled the familiar scent and felt saliva secreting crazily in his mouth.
Gudong~ Even if he tried hard to suppress the sound of swallowing saliva, it was still very clear in the quiet room.
A maid came forward and slowly opened the wooden cover on the tray, and the unparalleled rich aroma spurted out again.
"Taste it."
Onik felt a little strange and wanted to pretend to refuse, but when he saw the crystal clear honey in the porcelain bowl, he immediately swallowed his words.
Anyway, Sir Richard is not short of this honey, but his bottle was taken away by the president.
With his thoughts surging, he picked up the bowl.
Gugugu~
The taste buds in your mouth explode instantly, and your whole person feels relaxed.
Absolutely delicious.
As he drank, he felt that the price given was too low.
After finishing the drink, Onik's expression suddenly changed slightly.
Looking at Richard, he was surprised.
"I feel like my physical strength is recovering rapidly, and another kind of power...recovering magic power?"
Richard nodded.
"The honey we will supply in the future will be of this quality, and it will even be better in the future."
Onik took a deep breath and said decisively.
"So, we are willing to buy it for 200 gems per unit!"
The price has doubled.
A micro-rare resource vein only has a reserve of 100 units, and it takes more than a month for people to mine it.
One unit of honey can buy the reserves of two micro-rare veins.
After speaking, he added another sentence.
"There are several alchemical potions in Solan City that are more effective than Desert Crown Honey, but the price does not exceed 100 units of gems."
Solan City is not a small city. As a giant city on the edge of death, various industries are very developed.
There is no shortage of alchemical potions that can restore physical strength and magic power. What he values more is the invincible taste of Desert Crown Honey.
Only after combining the two can he offer this high price.
Richard began to think.
He currently has one main hive and 6 secondary hives.
The minimum weekly output of the main hive is 15 units, which can be increased to 20 or even 30 units if there is sufficient pollen.
There are 6 sub-hives, with a fixed output of 10 units per week, which works out to 60 units.
Adding this up, the total weekly output is about 80 to 90 units.
One unit can be exchanged for 200 units of rare resources, and 80 units is 16,000 units.
4 weeks a month, total 64,000 units.
Even if you leave some of it behind, you can get 40,000 to 50,000 rare resources into your account every month.
Moreover, Desert Crown Honey can be upgraded, and the production can continue to increase in the future.
This is definitely good news for Twilight City, which is extremely short of resources.
Richard felt a little better.
The tens of thousands of units of rare resources he spent were all obtained after completing difficult tasks.
Attacking the Dark Temple and becoming the president of the Scarlet Council, there was no escape from a narrow escape.
He even died before, and he only managed to survive with the resurrection skill.
The only easy thing may be the gems obtained from the magic puppets in the ancient ruins.
But he was also attacked by a level 18 fire elemental lord and almost died.
Everything in his hands was obtained at great risk.
Not once is it easy.
But Desert Crown Honey is different.
Just protect these bees from the enemy digging out their nests.
Output can be fixed every week.
It belongs to lying down and making money.
This is comfortable.
Sure enough, the future of farming is bright.
Richard gave the other party a meaningful look.
"Onik, I will go to Solan City soon."
"There is no need to hide from me the price of Desert Crown honey."
Onik said calmly.
"Your Excellency Richard, when we buy Desert Crown honey from you, we will definitely earn some profits, but this is not earned from lowering the price."
"So you don't need to worry about this. The price I gave is definitely higher than if you took Desert Crown Honey to sell it in Solan City."
Richard looked at each other for a few seconds, and finally nodded slowly.
"I can sell you 200 units now."
He added.
"But part of it is the ordinary quality honey you sent back before, and only part of it is high-grade honey."
“All transactions in the future will be high-grade honey.”
"You can trade 200 units per month."
Although the food workshop is currently suspended, it will be restarted soon.
Although it is expensive to sell Desert Crown honey directly, if you want to obtain higher added value, you need to develop more advanced products.
Onik nodded happily.
"Your Excellency Richard, in order to show our sincerity, I am willing to buy all the honey at the price of high-grade honey."
Richard happily accepted.
In this way, 16,000 units of rare resources were accounted for.
There was also some emotion in his heart, this was more than what he had gained from the adventure of life and death.
This is the way to get rich.
After negotiating the first business deal.
He signaled to the maid beside him and brought up the second item.
Opening the wooden cover, a white robe with gold trim appeared in the air.
Onik looked at Richard with some confusion.
robe?
Is this thing suitable for their trading?
Solan City can easily produce a bunch of the luxurious clothes worn by the king, let alone robes.
Richard smiled.
"Try it on."
Onik reluctantly picked it up and put it on without taking off his own clothes.
However, because her belly is too big, this normal yellow sand robe is bulging out.
It adds a bit of humor inexplicably.
Onik looked at the strange looks from the maids around him and felt a little hot.
Just when he was wondering what Richard had planned, his expression suddenly changed.
In such a hot environment, the ill-fitting clothes that clung to his body did not make him feel stuffy.
Even after a few breaths, a cool feeling came over me.
It was like soaking in the cold water flowing from the cave.
The whole person was in a state of elation and felt unparalleled comfort from head to toe.
Wonderful
It took a long time for Onik to come back to his senses.
He couldn't put it down and touched the sleeves of this robe, unable to hide the surprise in his eyes.
"Good stuff, good stuff!!"
After careful sensing, his expression changed again.
"Can you still restore your physical strength and magic power?"
He looked at Richard with extremely hot eyes.
"Your Excellency Richard, how many more treasures like this are there?! I want them all!!"
Traveling in the desert, the scorching heat can kill you.
It's okay if I haven't tried it before, but after trying it on, I won't be willing to take it off even if it doesn't fit.
This kind of treasure, no matter how expensive it is, he will buy one separately.
For people who often run in the desert, this is great news!
After he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something and his breathing became faster.
"Your Excellency Richard, can the Twilight City mass-produce such robes?"
If it could not be mass-produced, it would not have been possible to present it in such a grand manner given the personality of this lord.
As his thoughts turned, his eyes became brighter and brighter.
This is definitely not inferior to Desert Crown Honey, no, even more valuable than Desert Crown Honey!
If you don’t eat Desert Crown Honey, you won’t be able to enjoy its deliciousness.
But this robe can prevent the pain caused by high temperature.
He had only heard that the top equipment produced by the big guys in Solan City would have this characteristic.
But never seen it.
And you don’t need to think about it to know that it is impossible to promote a treasure of that level, and few people can afford it.
The energy fluctuations in the robe he is wearing are at the 2-star level.
What does this mean? ——Lower production costs, lower prices.
Can be promoted on a large scale!
He sensed the unlimited business opportunities contained in it. If this was really what he thought, the president would only be able to reward him with a manor in the heart of Solan City when he returned this time.
Looking at the other party's excited expression, Richard raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Sure enough, finished products with high added value are more attractive.
If you just sell the rabbit fur of the Flame Dragon Rabbit, the other party may be tempted, but not so excited.
And the price will definitely be greatly discounted.
While he was determined to develop a superior finished product of Desert Crown Honey, he looked at Onik with a smile.
This time, if I don’t kill her with a knife, I’d be sorry for Lucy’s hard sewing. (End of chapter)
