Chapter 470 Why are they all cheap?
On Celine's side, after answering a question, she received her fifth mage gold coin today.
The scroll in her hand showed the same words as Brand had before.
Celine didn’t worry too much about this.
She stood up and glanced around.
With a simple glance, she discovered that a little further away, Brand was holding a drink in his hand, smiling and chatting with a beautifully dressed lady.
Of course Celine is deeply aware of the charm of her disciple.
So she had expected such a scene.
——The number of people is unexpectedly small.
I think if this exchange had not been very important to these ladies, there would have been even more people around Brand.
Thinking of this, Celine couldn't help but glance curiously at the other ladies around her.
The unexpected situation is:
Many ladies at the scene would glance at Brand's position from time to time while checking the scrolls in their hands or talking to others.
Seeing such a scene, the corners of Celine's mouth turned up slightly.
Then, she took steps and walked directly in Brand's direction.
After getting closer, Celine noticed that there was an empty screen not far in front of Brand.
At this time, the personal battle of the younger generation is being played on the empty screen.
One of them happened to be a student at their college.
——Finn Chesire, Brand’s good friend.
Although he is only a senior mage apprentice, Finn is also a junior knight.
Although on the surface Finn is being suppressed by the opponent's spell.
But this suppression did not cause actual damage to him.
And if you look closely, you will find that the distance between Finn and his opponent is constantly shortening.
After the two sides get close, Finn's full strength as a formal knight can be fully unleashed.
——It is completely conceivable what will happen then.
"Teacher! Were you also asked to take a forced break?"
Brand naturally noticed the approach of his teacher.
So when Celine approached to a certain distance, he stood up to greet her.
After hearing the voice of his disciple, he looked away from the empty screen.
Celine smiled and said to Brand:
"This kind of design is also very good. You can't always answer other people's questions during exchange meetings.
You also need someone to answer your own questions. Only when you come and go can it be considered communication."
After hearing this, Brand spread his hands and said:
“But there are not many people who can answer the teacher’s questions, right?”
Celine shook her head and said:
"This is indeed true from the perspective of rune array science.
But don't forget that the practical application of rune array science is closely related to other disciplines.
If nothing else, you have Haven’t you been asking about alchemy techniques for a while?”
“That’s true.”
While the two were chatting, Selita also smiled and said hello to Celine. ：
"Hello Master! I am Selita Branagh, from the Branagh family of the Kingdom of Mers. Nice to meet you!"
From the conversation between Brand and this lady just now, Selita has learned that the veiled purple-haired lady is Brand's teacher.
Combined with the Rune Array Master's Badge on her chest.
The most likely situation is:
Brand, the master of runic formations, was shaped by her herself!
——This is probably the top figure in the study of runes in the Kaya Empire!
When she came to this conclusion, Selita's words and deeds were full of restraint.
Celine had no special reaction. After Selita introduced herself, she also told her name and identity in a gentle voice.
Then, under the leadership of Brand, the banquet master.
The three of them chatted happily.
... Castle Romine, study.
Of course, the imperial nobles who are not mages will pay close attention to important imperial events such as the Mage Festival.
Although the mage town is not open to people other than mages.
However, the exchanges between the younger generation were broadcast live.
What must be specially mentioned is:
At this moment, Mr. Romien is not the only one watching the battle.
Except for the heads of the Claude and Cecil families who are present at the scene.
Several other family heads of the Pioneer Legion are also in the "connection".
So Mr. Romien is now on the magic crystal screen in front of him:
In addition to the main picture of the mage's event, the reduced pictures of several other great masters are also hung in the corners of the empty screen.
While watching others fight, chatting with friends, and tasting your favorite food.
This is the leisurely life of a noble!
Of course, there are worries and so on.
Just when Mr. Romien was in a very happy mood.
The steward of Fort Romine came in and handed him a piece of information respectfully.
After doing all this, he said:
"Master, the Romine Chamber of Commerce has tried its best. Some materials are really rare, and the domestic production is very limited.
Even if we spend a lot of money to purchase from other chambers of commerce and auction houses, I’m afraid we won’t be able to meet your requirements in a short period of time, and we can only reach the current level.”
Although this is not true. Very clear and specific.
But looking at the content of the information in his hand, Mr. Romien immediately understood what the butler meant.
——This is talking about the material procurement business with Brand.
When Brand came to him to buy materials.
Out of envy and jealousy of this hateful guy Brand.
In addition, I thought back to the fact that these old guys were always caught and slaughtered by Brand.
Mr. Romien is also ready to use everyone's will to "repay Brand".
The Romine Family Chamber of Commerce usually does not stock too many uncommon materials in its warehouse.
So most of the materials Brand needs need to be purchased from outside.
This type of business of their Romine Chamber of Commerce usually charges a commission based on a fixed proportion of the material purchase price.
——The higher the transaction price, the more commission they charge.
In addition, if the Romine family can purchase materials at a discount.
The "discount difference" here is usually not given up either.
Finally, if it is some rare and difficult-to-acquire materials, the Romine Chamber of Commerce will also ask the buyer to increase the price!
In a word:
The more expensive and rare the materials Brand wants, the more their Romine Chamber of Commerce can make!
So Mr. Romien just waved his hand and asked his architectural designers to design the use of various materials according to the highest specifications.
After the designer has designed various materials and the financial staff has calculated the price.
Master Romien confidently used the blank screen to contact Brand.
——In the past, it was these old guys who needed Brand’s products, but now it’s the other way around!
——The time for revenge has arrived!
After showing Brand the list of materials, Mr. Romine explained the excellent functions of these materials one by one very professionally.
In a word:
These materials are totally worth the money!
Brand made a lot of money!
And just when Mr. Romien was preparing to deal with Brand's various bargaining methods.
Brand said something unexpected!
“The functions of these materials are quite good, but why are they all cheap?”
——Master Romine still remembers Brand’s direct doubts. Eyes!
