Chapter 67: The Mysterious Mr. Edla
The waiter shouted from outside the courtyard, "Mr. Edla, are you inside?"
"Crunch. ”
A farmer opened the gate of the yard and asked, "Is there anything wrong with you?"
The waiter at the hotel stepped aside, revealing a middle-aged man behind him, his face was full of vicissitudes, and he looked at the farmer with a smile on his face: "Hello, may I ask if your family is here? I am the vice president of the Dutch Chamber of Commerce, and I have agreed to meet Mr. Edra today." ”
"Is it from the Chamber of Commerce? Then come in. ”
The farmer was very polite and took the middle-aged man to Baron Edla.
"Hello, Mr. Edla, I am the vice president of the Dutch Chamber of Commerce, and my name is Knox. ”
After a brief introduction, the two entered the room together, and Knox got straight to the point, he looked into Baron Edla's eyes and asked, "Mr. Edla, I heard from a friend that you have a batch of secret stones to sell?"
"Yes. ”
Edra nodded, his attitude was very calm, and his tone was indifferent: "Do you want to buy my secret stone?"
"Yes, I will charge as much as I want, and I will definitely give you a price that satisfies you. ”
Knox nodded hurriedly, the secret stone is a hot-selling product sought after by all chambers of commerce.
Under normal circumstances, most of the secret stone veins are in the hands of big powers, nobles, and kings, and are used to train their own knights, and there are only a small number of secret stones circulating on the market.
Of course, there are also some people who have mastered the means of reaching the heavens and can provide some secret stones for a long time and stably, and such people are very popular in the market.
After the caravans buy these secret stones, whether they sell them to adventurers at a high price or sell them to the forces that need a large number of secret stones at one time, they can make a lot of money.
"How much do you want?"
Baron Edra smiled noncommittally, and then said, "I want to know how much you plan to give me. ”
Knox looked at Baron Edla's calm expression, he was a little unsure of this guy, so he could only say tentatively: "Each secret stone, one hundred and fifty gold coins?"
The price given by Knox is quite reliable, and when the secret stone vein is just mined, it still needs to be polished and smelted before it can be used directly.
The price of the finished secret stone will naturally be higher, but considering the cost and transportation problems after acquiring the secret stone, the purchase price of the caravan is mostly between one hundred and two hundred gold coins.
There are different sizes of secret stones, and the price of large secret stones is definitely much more expensive than small secret stones, but there are also ways to buy them by piece, regardless of the size of the secret stones.
Knox pondered that if this guy knew the market, he might just raise an objection and set different prices according to the size of the secret stone.
Baron Edra heard Knox's offer, without the slightest hesitation, and nodded directly: "Okay, let's go according to this price." ”
"Refreshing!"
Knox smiled and said, "If Baron Edra has more secret stones, you can always contact me, and if you give enough secret stones, we can negotiate the price of each secret stone." ”
Secret stones are a hot commodity with no price, so their purchase price is only high.
"Good. ”
Baron Edra looked at Knox with a smirk, which made Knox feel a little strange.
But no matter what, Knox felt that he was taking advantage, and this guy didn't even refute it, and directly agreed to the agreement to buy by the piece.
As long as there are two big secret stones in the secret stones he provides, Knox will make a lot of money.
Even if there is no big secret stone in the secret stone he provides, Knox will make a lot of money.
Baron Edra instructed the farmers to fetch the secret stone that had been prepared long ago, a large bag, and placed it in front of Knox with a "poof".
Knox raised an eyebrow, he could hear a dull sound inside, the sound of stones crashing.
A big bag of secret stones!
If you eat so many secret stones, it will be enough to earn the benefits of the caravan in the Dutch area for several years!
Fortunately, Knox was a businessman who had seen the world, and he had seen a secret stone of the same size once or twice, so Knox could still maintain his facial expression without showing any excitement or joy.
"Here are a hundred secret stones, where are your gold coins?" Baron Edra opened the bag, revealing the secret stones inside, which were still stained with some dirt.
Knox stepped forward to count the number, but unfortunately, there were no big secret stones.
It seems that this Mr. Edra is a bit of a doorman, and he is not easy to fool.
Knox was a little disappointed, and after confirming that each secret stone was genuine, he quickly raised his head and said, "Please wait a moment, Mr. Edla, it's hard for me to carry so many gold coins alone, so I'll go back and get them." ”
"Good. ”
Baron Edra nodded and waved his hand: "Send off." ”
Several farmers stepped forward and motioned for Knox to go out with them.
Knox smiled, he didn't feel wrong with Edla's indifference, and the people who could get the secret stone were strange people, and their personalities were all strange.
Knox followed the farmers, walking through the yard and out.
Curious by a merchant, Knox kept an eye on the transport cart that Edra had left in the yard. In particular, the transport truck covered with black cloth made Knox very curious.
What is this convoy carrying?
Edra had already unloaded the Secret Stone from the Minecart Skeletons and loaded them on several broken wooden carts, the Minecart Skeletons were so load-bearing that the Secret Stones removed from them could fill several wooden carts, and at first glance the yard was full of transports covered in black cloth.
"I have some stomach pain, may I ask ......"
Knox inquired about the location of the toilet and hurried away, and he sneaked around the farmer's gaze, sneaking close to the transport truck and lifting a corner of the black cloth.
"Oh my God!"
Knox's eyes widened and he couldn't help but let out a low exhale, his voice trembling.
What did he see?
A whole car of secret stones!
There are definitely thousands of them!
Knox turned his head to look around, and there were about seven or eight of the transporters that were also covered with black cloth!
This Mr. Edra has nearly 10,000 secret stones!
Knox thought of the secret stones he had just seen in the bag, most of them were stained with some relatively fresh soil, and combined with the analysis of these truckloads of secret stones, it should have just been mined.
Knox reacted quickly, and he thought of a possibility.
This mysterious Mr. Edra has mastered at least one vein of the Secret Stone!
Otherwise, it can't be explained where he got so many secret stones?
"Hey, what are you doing!"
Several farmers guarding the transport cart came from outside and shouted loudly.
Knox hurriedly turned around and left, smiling awkwardly: "Haha, I'm sorry, I'm lost." ”
With that, Knox walked out of the courtyard and left the hotel with a lot of concern.
This mysterious convoy has brought a huge number of secret stones!
Nearly 10,000 secret stones!
This is no longer a commodity that the Dutch Chamber of Commerce can eat.
Knox could foresee that Mr. Edra would definitely become the favorite of all the chambers of commerce in Sand City, and he had to get the word out.
"There is no news in Sand City about who owns a large number of secret stones, and everything is still in time. ”
After Knox left, a farmer guarding the convoy walked into Baron Edla's room and reported, "Lord Baron, that guy peeked at our transport truck just now. ”
"Did he see the Secret Stone?"
"I guess I saw it. ”
"Is there a shortage of secret stones?"
"I've counted it, and there's no less. ”
"That's good. ”
Baron Edra nodded in satisfaction and waved the farmer away.
The farmer was a little confused, he couldn't understand that Baron Edra had deliberately let them out of the vicinity of the transporter, revealing a flaw in Knox to reveal his secret thoughts and actions.
"The fish has taken the bait. ”
Baron Edra smiled, Lord Death had told him that in a city like Sand City, which was filled with a large number of merchants, caravans and chambers of commerce communicated with each other or had their own intelligence information networks.
As long as the news that he has a large number of secret stones in his hands, there will definitely be many merchants with potential and deep financial resources who will come to the door to buy them.
Of course, in order to better grasp the pricing power and initiative, Edra can't take the initiative to claim that he has a large number of secret stones, after all, active selling and being asked to buy are two different concepts.
Edra only needs to inadvertently release the news at the right time and wait for the seeker to come to the door.
As long as the trade of the secret stone can be finalized, it is natural to be able to contact and contact more potential merchants and adventurers, so that the matter of selecting the summoner of the dead is no longer a problem.
Although Baron Edra was a little apprehensive in his heart, he felt that what Lord Death said was very reasonable, so he waited patiently in the hotel.
Baron Edra originally thought that he would have to wait a few days for the intelligence information to be released, but he didn't expect that Knox had only been gone for less than half an hour, and the owner of the hotel took the initiative to visit him.
"Excuse me, is Mr. Edra here?"
"Is there anything you can do?"
"Could you please inform Mr. Edra that there is a guest outside the hotel who wants to see him, and this guest is a member of the Chamber of Commerce of the Awakened. ”
