Chapter 18 18. I bring out the magical weapon! Steward 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 a guest he invited. The carriage stopped slowly 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 natural aura and magic lingering on it, and clouds and vines of vegetation moving 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 have to dress gorgeously. His expression was completely different from his gorgeous clothes. He had a very lovable round face, with a simple and honest smile on his face. He rubbed his hands and said very politely: "It's so rare to come to the castle of a mage lord. It's really a joy! If you are lucky enough to meet an adult, it would be even more joyful! "
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 would not have been exiled here. "Haha, my master mage is conducting research... Please come in, Mr. Sesu, I have prepared the marcasite ore." Rob ignored the hint that he wanted to see Croya and directly extended his hand to make a vague gesture. 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 was the marcasite ingot that Rob sent people to bring here 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 Croya must not want outsiders to enter the castle at will. "Huh." Sesu was immediately attracted by them. He stepped forward and rubbed them carefully, and judged from their smooth appearance and vague aura of magic: 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 laughed at this and said simply: "Then please leave Mr. Sesu now, I will go to the Gray Sea Chamber of Commerce immediately.
I guess 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 basically 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, and it is filled with magic power. If you can find an alchemist, you can even make something close to magic weapons. You do not want? 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 like this. But to be honest, this is human nature, businessmen exist... Sesu couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This butler seemed to be a knowledgeable person at first glance. Didn't it mean that all mages would find some butlers who didn'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, there are goings and goings, you have to give me a price at least!" "Seven silver coins!" Rob's expression was firm, 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 power. "Okay." Sesu didn't bargain. After looking at 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." 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?" Sesu volunteered: "If Master Mage needs it, I can exchange it for sixteen gold coins, and the remaining ones will be used as exchange." This is actually a good deal, because almost no one will exchange silver coins for gold coins. Robert was 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!" Then, he also took out a handful of crystal clear sunflower seeds. There were only twelve of them.
"This is what the Lord cultivated casually and wants to sell." Sai Liu was immediately surprised and said: "Did the Master Mage cultivate it?" This time he really didn't hide it, and hurried over and carefully looked at the sunflower seeds. It was like looking at some rare treasure. Many people don't know that Sai Liu actually had a dream of becoming 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 become his obsession. He is very interested in any object produced by a mage, which is why he rushed here immediately after receiving the invitation. As a qualified deacon of the Chamber of Commerce, he can of course distinguish the power of these small sunflower seeds - it is a kind of power full of vitality. It is gentler and warmer than the sun. It seems to be good for the body. 'I want to taste one myself! ’ He made such a decision immediately, and then hesitantly estimated the price: "One hundred silver coins for one, this price is the highest price I can offer." When he said this, his expression was obviously a little nervous - this kind of sunflower seeds that have never been seen before are unique here, and they are different from tin ingots. If you miss it, you may really lose it. "..." Rober did not show any emotion on his face, but he felt complicated in his heart - that pile of ore, who had been accumulated for who knows how long, only cost more than 1,600 silver coins. But what about this? Twelve can be exchanged for 1,200 silver coins. Is this a wizard? He can easily earn wealth that ordinary people can't imagine, and even asks them to rush to give it, for fear that he will not sell it. And Robert's hesitation was mistaken by Serio as feeling that he felt that the money was not enough. The latter gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and took out an exquisite necklace. Put it on the table. He reluctantly said, "This is an elven magic weapon I once got. As long as the Master Mage is willing to sell it to me and continue to supply it in the future... This magic weapon will be my gift to the Master Mage. I will still pay the silver coins!" He said this appropriately, and also meant to apologize for the temptation just now. At this moment, Cloya, who was eavesdropping, was immediately moved.
