Chapter 7: The Book of Spells

"Master Mage, please wait!" Although Leitch's actions stunned John, he couldn't really watch the other party leave. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Something?" Reich's voice was a little cold, and his expression was slightly impatient. Because he knew that only in this way could he conform to the cold and arrogant image of the mage, and only by making the other party unsure could he grasp the initiative.

"My lord, do you want to dispose of the two iron armors in your hands? If so, I will be happy to serve you!" John's eyes were very vicious, and he judged at a glance that the two pieces in Leqi's hands were whiteboard black iron grade iron armor, and they were at least ninety percent new! As long as he changed hands, he could definitely make a lot of money.

John was sure that Richie had come here to sell the two pieces of Iron Armor, as mages didn't need Iron Armor - with the exception of the legendary Battle Mage, who were scarcer in Dawson than Dragons. As for why he didn't suspect that Leitch was not a mage? This is an unspoken rule left over from the Fast period, only mages are qualified to wear mage robes, otherwise it is a blasphemy against mages, and it is not surprising that they are killed by mages!

"That's right. Ricky's expression did not fluctuate in the slightest, and his answer remained cold.

"I don't know where you got these two iron armors, my lord?" Although Leitch's expression was very bad, John always had a smile on his face, which was his professionalism as a businessman. What's more, he didn't think there was anything wrong with a mage like this, even if the other party was just a mage apprentice.

"Want to know?" Reitch gave a stiff smile, making John a little hairy, after all, mages were rumored to be a murderous master.

"Two robbers tried to rob me on the way, and the last one I had my head shattered with lightning and my brain was bleeding all over the ground, and the other was burned by me for half an hour. Listening to the young-looking mage talk about his murderous experience with a blank face, John admitted that both of his legs were shaking. If it weren't for the fact that the gold was too tempting for him, he would have wanted the mage to get out of his shop immediately.

"How about 8 gold coins, 8 gold coins?!" John almost gritted his teeth and said the price, "I'll pay 4 gold coins for each of these two iron armors, what do you think?"

According to his original plan, it would be better to buy one for one gold coin, but given that the young mage was so cruel, if he annoyed him, he burned down his shop, it was really worth the loss.

"My lord, the price I gave is definitely the fairest, even if you go to the blacksmith shop and ask, the price given by Shem can only be lower than mine!" Seeing that Leitch was still indifferent, John couldn't help but add with an oath.

In fact, Leitch also knew that John was not deceiving himself, and the price he gave was indeed very affordable. According to the trading rules of the market, the price of second-hand equipment purchased by merchants is generally lower than thirty percent of the original price, and the two iron armors in Leqi's hands are about fifteen gold coins at most, even if they are new products. But who doesn't know that these so-called second-hand equipment, sold by the hands of these profiteers, the price is at least two or three times, and even a lot of it is sold as new products after only a little processing!

What a fucking traitor, no business!! At the same time, he fantasized in his heart that if he really took over the troll mercenary group in the future, he would also set up a chamber of commerce after he got on track! Otherwise, he would be very unhappy to think of the results of his mercenary group's hard work in the water and fire, but let these profiteers swallow most of it.

Seeing that Leitch still didn't agree, John's heart was indeed a little anxious. This is a big deal for him, and he can earn a few copper coins by selling some sugar and a pot, but as long as this transaction is successful, he can earn ten gold coins from changing hands! You must know that he usually doesn't make that much in a month.

"I heard you sell spell books here?"

Hearing Richy's sudden mention of the spell book, John became ecstatic again, because it was also a big deal for him!

"Your Excellency, you're looking for the right person to buy a spell book, I definitely have everything here!" John said that it was a bit of an exaggeration, but when he saw nearly a hundred spell books, Leitch couldn't help but be a little stunned.

Leitch's surprise was seen by John, and while he was a little proud in his heart, he was more sad and regretful. John has always thought of himself as a very shrewd businessman, and in the past, others took advantage of him, but these nearly 100 spell books can be said to be the biggest failure in his businessman's career!

At the beginning, he was also confused, knowing that the fox man was the most cunning and untrustworthy, but he was stunned and coaxed by the other party to buy these nearly 100 low-level spell books! Although these spell books are genuine, and each one is only a gold coin, the problem is ******that they can't be sold! Can't be sold, no matter how low the price is, there is a bird to use?

Spellbooks are regulated regardless of the country. As far as the Dawson Federation is concerned, the Ten Lords' Court Mage Towers and the Celestial Frost Academy have the right to be sold. However, the spell books circulating in the market are only first-level magic and second-level magic, and if you want to learn advanced magic, it is only possible to go to those powerful mage groups.

One of the characteristics of these spellbooks issued by the Mage Tower is that they can only be read ten times each, after which they are wasted paper. The reason for this is that the ink used to print the spellbook is actually a magic potion that can only be read with the help of the mage's magic, but each time it is read, the ink is worn out until it eventually fails completely. However, ten times of use, even a low-level talent mage is enough to learn.

There is no problem with these nearly 100 spell books themselves, they are all genuine, and the number of uses is also full. But the point is that these spell books are not in the official sequence, and the cover of the spell books does not have the logo of the Ten Court Mage Towers or the Frost Castle Academy!

The trade of the Dawson Free Federation is definitely the most developed among the major human countries, and the Federation's business groups not only travel all over the continent, but even the Elf Continent in the north and the Demon Spirit Continent in the south also have business contacts with the Federation, and even the Abyss Plane has the footprints of the Federation Business Group!

Although the profits of smuggling are large, the risks are also not small. John felt that as a small businessman, he did not want to get involved in the field of smuggling. He even guessed countless times that the reason why he bought these spell books in the first place was definitely due to the influence of that damn fox man's evil spells!

But he could only knock out his teeth and swallow them in his stomach, and at the same time secretly prayed that the Holy Spirits and the ancient gods of all parties could open their eyes and let a few more mages patronize his shop, as long as he could secretly sell a few more copies to recover the cost.

But Baixi Village itself is a small place, and there is not even a mage apprentice in the village, and the situation in the nearby villages is similar. Even if there is, what kind of money can the mages in the village have? Generally, most of the mages from the village will eventually run to the city, because only the city has a profound magic inheritance, and only the city can make them enough money to learn magic, only the city****** so far John's spell book has not been sold a single one!

But the arrival of Leitch gave him hope, the mage who can afford to wear a magic robe is certainly not a poor ghost, and the most important thing is that the other party is interested in his spell book! Although he was very excited, John did not show it on his face, which is also his shrewdness as a businessman.

Ratche was indeed very interested in these spell books, and nearly a hundred spell books almost dazzled his eyes.

"Fire Tongue", a level 1 magic of destruction, can cause 6 damage when burned for 1 minute:

"Frost Technique", a level 1 magic of destruction, can cause 6 damage for 1 minute of freezing, and reduce the target's mobility;

"Stone Fist", a level 1 magic of destruction, quickly shoots a stone fist, causing 5 damage;

"Healing Technique", a level 1 magic healing system, can restore 5 health points in 1 minute;

"Light Shield", a level 1 magic of the defense system, can block 5 damage:

******

Magic is scientific and rigorous, and the Fast Empire has pioneered a system of measured magic - any magic can be measured by value, which is the core of the system of measured magic. In order to accurately measure the amount of magic, the Fast Empire spent astronomical sums of material on various experiments on various spells. Like the spellbooks mentioned above, 6 damage, 5 defense, and 5 healing are all memes. Among them, the mage of the Fast Empire uses the vitality of a wild wolf as a reference value of 1 point, the vitality of an ordinary adult is also 1 point, and the vitality of a first-level brave person is 10 points.

However, even if Leitch sold two pieces of iron armor, he couldn't afford to buy any of them, because according to the official selling price, the price of a level 1 spell book was ten gold coins, which was equivalent to the price of a whiteboard black iron level weapon.

But upon closer inspection, Leitch found an anomaly - the trademarks of these spell books were not in the official sequence, but a broken blood-dripping tombstone!

Interesting!, Retch smiled silently.

"Boss, these spell books are not genuine!As a good law-abiding citizen, are you planning to insult an upright mage?!" With a cold tone, Leitch stared at John with a malicious gaze.

Insult your uncle!

Han scolded disdainfully in his heart, he had seen through Leitch now, and he had been owed by Leitch almost all the time before, which made him a little embarrassed. But at the same time, he was sure of one thing, this cunning little mage was interested in the spellbooks that made him feel hot!

It's good to be interested, don't be afraid that the fish won't bite the hook!

"Then in order not to insult you, my lord, I better put away these spell books. As he spoke, John made a gesture as he stacked the scattered spell books back into the box.

Damn it!

Seeing John's previous enthusiastic attitude, Leitch knew that he had overdressed. His eyes narrowed, and Leitch stared at John, and said righteously, "In order to defend the glory of the Grand Duke, I think it is necessary to report a black-hearted trader like you to the Mage Tower!"

"Excuse me!" Tomorrow morning, as long as you go south along the White Creek, it is estimated that you will reach Thunderman City by evening!" Now it was John's turn to return to Retch nonchalantly.

Ratchet couldn't have really done that. Those who dare to smuggle are not what he can afford to provoke at the moment, especially the controlled products such as spell books.

"Boss, do you want these two iron armors?" Now that he knew that he couldn't take advantage of anything, Leitch had no choice but to get down to business.

"Of course, and the price I gave you is still the same, honorable mage!" Seeing that Leitch was finally going to sell the two pieces of iron armor, John's face was full of smiles again.

"I don't want your gold," Retche smiled kindly, squeezing John's appetite slightly, "How about I exchange two pieces of iron armor for your three spell books?"

For Leitch's proposal, John scolded bullshit directly in his heart at first, but then thought about it seriously, although this plan was not what he hoped for the most, it was still acceptable. Eventually, John nodded reluctantly.

ps: Ask for collections.
