Chapter 996: Stock up on Supplies at Low Prices, and Come in a Rare Bowl of Jewelry! (Please Ask for Monthly Tickets at the End of the Month)
Use silver and other valuables to pay debts?
That must be possible!
Speaking of which, what is the most important thing? A newbie magician may answer "gold coins", and a mid-level and low-level magician may answer "contribution points", but at high levels, all magicians have only one answer -
resource!
resource!
Or resources!
Gems are resources, magic crystals are resources, and materials from monsters and magic plants are also resources;
Land is a resource, crops are resources, and the people who grow crops and develop minerals are also resources;
Speaking more broadly, being able to rely on a country with two level 18 indigenous gods to establish a stronghold in a weak area of the parliament's power is already the most important resource!
"Of course, of course." Archmage Vickers, who was responsible for the acquisition valuation, spread his hands and smiled enthusiastically:
"Silver, gems, magic crystals, Warcraft and Warcraft materials, plants and medicinal materials, everything can be used for valuation. As long as it is valuable, we will accept everything!"
What's the use of just dragging gold back?
Just dragging gold back, apart from increasing gold reserves for the parliament and possibly increasing the price of supplies on the market, what else is there for it?
Supplies, these supplies are the real deal, and they are the things that can be quickly turned into a magician's combat power!
To put it bluntly, even if you can't find any use for it for a while, if you find something new that you haven't seen before, it will be a new research point for magicians in the alchemy branch!
"Come on, come and work!" He stood up and shouted. The young magicians rushed over in a hurry:
In order to purchase supplies and establish trading points, half of the young magicians sent by the parliament belong to the school of change. Archmage Vickers shouted, feeling particularly at ease.
"Set up a stall and prepare to collect things! Collect, classify, appraise, and appraise! Everyone knows what they want to do! If you see something you don't recognize, ask me again!"
The square, or a specially designated area in the corner of the large market, was bustling with people. Soldiers, servants of nobles, came carrying all kinds of things:
Large pieces of silver, silver utensils and jewelry of all kinds;
Dracaena, curare, ebony, fragrant wood, the trunks, bark, branches, roots, seedlings, seeds, and dried flowers of various valuable plants and wonderful magic plants;
Bees, hives, honey; ants, ant nests, ant pupae, dried ants; live venomous snakes, snake eggs, snake sloughs, snake teeth, snake skin, dried venomous snakes;
Crocodiles, crocodile skins, crocodile eggs, leopard skins, leopard teeth, live adult leopards (male and female pairs, magicians promise high prices for leopard pairs), leopard cubs, and various jungle beasts;
Umbrellabird, roseate heron, quetzal, various rare bird feathers, bird bones and eggs;
even……
"Oh my God! I can't believe they even sell eagles!"
"What's wrong with the eagle? It's not like the God of Eagles... We ate a lot of beef in the buffalo tribe!"
Throughout the square, there were shouts, shouts, birds chirping, beasts roaring, and all kinds of things happening. Archmage Vickers turned to Tratoani and smiled:
"Don't worry, the price we give is absolutely fair. Whether it's silver, Warcraft, or various valuables, they will all be charged at your market price, and we will never deduct any gold dust!"
Grete stood aside to watch the excitement. When he heard these words, he suddenly turned his face away. Serila blinked at the side, not knowing why, and pulled him hard:
"Hey, what?"
Gretel didn't dare to say anything, so he flicked his fingers and quickly refreshed himself with [Mechanized Mind]. I was still afraid that Serira would be cheating on me, so I tried my best to remind her through the spiritual connection:
"You brush it too! You brush it too! Don't show it on your face!—Don't laugh!"
Serila put two index fingers on her face, pressed her dimples, and pulled down hard. After saying "I am obedient, I will not laugh", under Gretel's eager gaze, he finally cast a spell on himself.
Gretel then explained through the spiritual connection:
"Everything is the cheapest in the place of origin and charged according to the local market price... Think about it, the cherries you buy in the cherry orchard, the fresh fish you buy on the fishing boats out to sea, the price Is it cheaper than in the market?”
"..."
"..."
"But if I want to eat fish, I never have to go to the boat to buy it!"
Gretel raised her hands to cover her face. Okay, beautiful Miss Serira, if you want to eat all kinds of fish monsters, you have to go to the sea to catch them yourself, so that you can catch the best, freshest, strongest and most powerful fish.
As for eating some fruit, Gretel was very skeptical. She thought the fruit would grow out of the plate...
Anyway, according to the market price of Eagle Country, the mages got a big advantage. The value of these things to magicians and to natives are different!
Not to mention, the land of eagles is a place where gold is produced. The price of gold here is extremely cheap, and various materials priced in gold are not much more expensive...
"By the way, we don't lower the price, and you don't raise the price either." Archmage Vickers actually gave an additional instruction:
"Our magicians all have the ability to read thoughts. At the very least, we can definitely tell whether you deliberately said they were expensive or whether you lied about the prices of these things..."
As a deterrent, the Archmage of the Charm Control Department came over to guide several alchemists and set up a [Lie Detection] magic array. Surrounding each stall, the total area is 20 meters by 5 meters.
He was drawing lines, placing gems, and chanting spells. Archmage Vickers explained with a smile——
"Look, in this area, as long as someone lies, this magic circle will glow red and make a beep beep - look, it beeps..."
In front of the stall, a shirtless warrior with a tanned upper body dropped his fur, turned around and ran away.
Tratoani's face immediately turned dark. He pointed forward, and two warriors immediately rushed over and grabbed him back and pinned him to the ground. The soldier struggled twice, but failed, and could only admit dejectedly:
"I lied... I didn't go into the jungle to hunt that crocodile skin. I bought it from a hunter..."
"Well……"
This magic circle seems a little too sensitive...
All in all, the magic circle worked well as a deterrent. Under the supervision of Archmage Vickers, all kinds of supplies were collected in a stream.
In addition to the magicians brought by the parliament, there are also businessmen who are helping, such as the Hawthorne couple who came from the small town of Waltham:
"Honey from the golden bee! My dear, come and see, this is especially helpful for recuperating your old injuries!"
Jasmine held up half of the hive and showed it to her husband happily. Inside the hive, golden-orange honey flows slightly, mixed with wisps of fiery red threads. Mr. Hawthorne smiled at her and held up a handful of seeds:
"My dear, come and take a look at these. Are there any flowers you like? Are there any that you can use to decorate your garden, decorate your house, or make medicine?"
Jasmine and her husband changed positions and looked carefully. Mr. Hawthorne took over his wife's job and negotiated the price:
"This hive and honey are worth a piece of gold the size of a fingernail... No problem, I'll weigh it for you. Is it this big? Okay, please take it. The next thing..."
Taking into account the poor mathematics level of the indigenous people and their poor understanding of "currency" and "credit" (they actually don't use gold as currency! All gold is used to worship the gods!), the parliament took out a large amount of gold as Trade items.
Exchange supplies for gold and hand the gold to the temple or to Tratoani, who will then send people to the Parliament to pay off the debt. Then, return the gold and get the trading point...
Infinite loop, extremely efficient.
"How's it going? Are you planning to open a store here?"
After Grete watched the transaction for a long time and wrote a paper (homework) for a long time, he was finally able to take a large group of people, including Serreira, Linn, and Bernard, for a stroll to the Hawthorne couple for a meal.
As soon as I walked in and looked at the dazzling array of products in the temporary residence, I couldn't help but smile and ask:
"It seems that you have gained a lot!"
"Yes, yes! There are so many supplies here!" Mr. Hawthorne was half buried in the shelves, sorting, counting, and making books. He was so busy that his head and face were covered with dust. Turning his head, his expression was full of excitement:
"With just a slight change of hands, the profit can be several times or dozens of times! I estimate that if I take root here, it will take me less than two years to accumulate enough resources to advance!"
"It's really good, but I don't want to open a store here." Ms. Jasmine came out with a plate of roasted corn crisps and placed it in front of Grete and others:
"The sun here is too hot! Look, he's only been here for a few days, and several layers of skin have been sunburned off his face! Besides, there aren't even many trees nearby, and grass doesn't grow very much. I don't want to I like it here! If you want to open a store, open it at the port!"
"You're going to have to endure hardship when you go to the port to open a shop." Mr. Hawthorne glanced at his wife softly, and was caught off guard by her stuffing a corn tortilla, which made a "Uh-huh" sound.
Without looking at her husband, Jasmine poured a cup of cactus juice for each guest, put a piece of mint on the rim of the cup, and pushed it in front of everyone:
"What a wonderful port! It's close to the river and the sea, with trees, fields, fish and meat! It's nothing like this shabby place. There aren't even fish growing in the lake. The only meat available is chickens, ducks, dogs and Rabbit, I’m almost sick from eating these days!”
"Besides, if you don't sell the adventurer's equipment at the port, how about selling it in the royal capital? People have already climbed all the way to the royal capital, so who would want to buy your stuff?"
His mouth was scolding, but his eyes were full of tenderness. Mr. Hawthorne struggled to swallow the corn cake, shook his head, and laughed helplessly:
"I really can't help it. She always misses me and wants me to open the store smoothly. Well, we have already agreed that after the transaction here is completed and the materials are sorted, we will follow the team to the port to open the store... Anyway, The mage tower will also be built at the port, won’t it?”
