Chapter 18 18. I bring out the magical weapon!
Butler Robert stood at the door of the castle with a very calm expression, just like Croya's expression, even if the carriage in front of him was his guest.
The carriage slowly stopped at the gate of the castle.
A very rich-looking fat man who looked as good as Bartos came out.
He was wearing a silk satin woven by elves, with a natural breath of magic lingering on it, and clouds and vines of vegetation swimming with his movements.
Lifelike, as if there is life.
It looks very expensive at first glance, but it is more likely to be for show. After all, businessmen must dress gorgeously.
His expression is completely different from the gorgeous clothes.
A round face is very pleasing, with a simple and honest smile on his face, he rubs his hands, and his words are also very polite: "It is rare to come to the castle of a mage lord, it is really joyful. !
It would be even more joyful if I were lucky enough to meet you! ”
Well, this is not false.
There is no longer a second mage to be the lord around Hanjiao Island. After all, the terrain is remote and there are no special products. Everything in the sea is controlled by the sea tribe...
Otherwise Croya will not be exiled here.
"Haha, my master mage is doing research... Please come in, Mr. Sesu, I have prepared the marcasite ore."
Rober ignored him and wanted to see Ke. Luo Ya's suggestion was that he stretched out his hand to make a false move.
A businessman from a chamber of commerce still wants to meet the mage?
It is better to go to bed early and dream.
The businessman named Sesu was not discouraged. He followed him into the castle, walked through a passage, and came to a room.
There are some strange, shiny iron blocks placed in this room, each of which weighs exactly one kilogram.
It is the marcasite ingot that Rob sent people to bring early in the morning.
The reason why it was not in the castle's warehouse, but chose to move it laboriously, was mainly because I didn't want a businessman to see the real situation in the castle.
He felt that Cloya must not want outsiders to enter the castle at will.
"Hey." Sesu was immediately attracted by them.
Go forward and rub it carefully to inspect it. Judging from their smooth appearance and vague aura of magical power, you can conclude that these must have been forged by a mage himself!
Look at how well-proportioned they are, without any impurities inside. They are as beautiful as silver, and the magic power inside is still very soft.
The quality is excellent and belongs to the best category.
As a qualified businessman, no matter how excited he is inside, his surface emotions are very stable.
He gently stroked the iron ingot with his fingers: "The quality is good, so I will give you six silver coins according to the market price."
Rob just smiled at this and said simply: " Then please leave now, Mr. Sesu. I will go to the Gray Sea Chamber of Commerce immediately.
I think they will be able to give me a suitable price.”
When he said the word "appropriate", Robert deliberately emphasized his voice - just kidding, it's not like he has never seen the world, these top-quality white iron ingots can definitely be sold for more than eight silver coins.
Admittedly, if you were in a place like the royal capital, this would be about six silver coins.
But the more remote the area, the fewer the best things are, the more precious they are and the higher their value.
Not to mention that this is the main material for common armors and weapons. It is also filled with magic power. If you can find an alchemist, you can even make something close to magic weapons.
You don’t want it?
You don’t want me to continue looking for someone else!
If he had not been a noble and knew these tricks, someone who had just come from the royal capital and had not investigated the market would have given it to him like this.
But to be honest, this is also human nature, businessmen exist...
Sesu couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This housekeeper looks like a knowledgeable person at first glance, it's not like he would find a lawyer. Some butlers who don’t know anything?
Why are the prices so stuck?
He rubbed his hands and put a smile on his face.
"Oh, that's what you said. We are talking about business, and we have to come and go, so you have to give me a price at least!"
"Seven silver coins!"< br>
Rob's expression was determined, but it also left him with enough profit - he could earn an extra silver coin just by flipping his hand.
Don’t squeeze too hard, there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future. Behind this man is the Hanhai Chamber of Commerce, which has an advantage over the farther away Gray Sea Chamber of Commerce, and is said to be related to the local nobles.
It will be helpful to Croya’s expansion of local influence.
"That's good." Sesu didn't bargain. After checking all the white iron ingots one by one, he said: "There are two hundred and thirty-one in total here, so it is 1,617 silver coins."
< br>It sounds like a lot, but according to the currency exchange ratio, it can only be exchanged for sixteen gold coins - of course, gold coins are already magic materials and generally cannot be exchanged easily.
Most common items can be purchased with silver coins.
"Do you need to exchange it for gold coins?"
Sesulius offered: "If the mage needs it, I can exchange it for sixteen gold coins, and the remaining ones will be used for exchange."
This is actually a good deal, because almost no one will exchange silver coins for gold coins.
Robert was a little hesitant. He didn't know whether Croya needed gold coins, so he thought about sending someone to ask for instructions.
But before he could go find someone to ask for instructions, Knight Art walked in and conveyed Croya’s meaning: “It’s all up to the butler!”
Afterwards, he also took A handful of crystal clear sunflower seeds came out.
Only twelve.
“This was cultivated by the lord, and he wants to sell it.”
Sei Sulfur immediately said in surprise: “Created by the mage?”
He is now There was really no hiding it. He hurried over and looked at the sunflower seeds carefully.
It's like looking at some unique treasure.
Many people don’t know that Sesu had dreamed of being a mage a long time ago, but due to his talent and the conditions at the time, he had no chance to learn.
But this regret has even turned into his obsession.
He is very interested in any object produced by the mage, which is why he rushed over immediately after accepting the invitation.
As a qualified Chamber of Commerce deacon, he can certainly discern the power of these small sunflower seeds - it is a power full of vitality.
Moderate and warmer than sunlight.
Seems to be good for the body.
‘I want to try one myself! '
Immediately, he made such a decision, and then hesitated to estimate: "One hundred silver coins, this price is the highest price I can give."
said When he said this, his expression was obviously a little uneasy - this kind of sunflower seed that had never been seen before was unique here, and it was different from tinplate ingots.
If you miss it, you may not have it anymore.
“…”
Rob didn’t show any clues on his face, but he felt complicated in his heart—the pile of ore that had been accumulated for who knows how long only amounted to more than 1,600 silver coins. .
But what about this?
Twelve can be exchanged for one thousand two hundred silver coins.
Is this the mage? You can easily earn wealth that is unimaginable to ordinary people, and they even have to rush to pay for it, for fear that they won't sell it.
Rob's hesitation was misunderstood by Sesu as a lack of money. The latter gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, and took out an exquisite necklace.
Put it on the table.
Reluctantly said: "This is an elven magic weapon I once obtained. As long as the mage is willing to sell these to me and continue to supply them in the future...
This Think of the magic weapon as a gift from me to Master Mage, and I will still pay for it with the silver coins!”
What he said was appropriate, and he also meant to apologize for the temptation just now.
At this moment, Croya, who was eavesdropping, suddenly felt his heart beat.
