Chapter 340: Do a big vote!
"What is this?"
Ivan looked at the quaint notebook on the table, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
This chaebol gentleman, who is accustomed to seeing antique treasures, naturally has some eyesight, and the moment he looks at this codex note, he immediately realizes that the origin of this thing may not be simple.
Judging from the cover pattern of this notebook, it looks like a heroic era style a thousand years ago. Simply treat it as an antique, maybe it's not very valuable. It's what's in the notes that really counts.
Since the young boy in front of him confidently took out this quaint notebook, he obviously knew his collecting habits, so he would never take out some rotten antiques to fool him.
Raymond said, "Mr. Ivan, this is one of the codex of the Potions Secret Codex. ”
He knew that if he directly negotiated the price of ore with this philistine fat man, no matter how high the price he opened, it would be a drizzle of wealth for this kind of big chaebol, and maybe people would not be interested in talking about it at all.
Raymond knows this guy's personality very well, as long as he comes up with something that interests this fat man, maybe he can negotiate it without spending money.
There are a lot of treasures in his hands, but if he really wants to take them out without feeling distressed, the only thing is the original codex of this Potions General Knowledge Secret Codex!
After all, he only cared about potions knowledge, but didn't think much about the "artifact value" of the codex itself.
It can be exchanged for rainbow ore, but it is not a loss.
"Potions Generics Codex? Which version of this is this, and which master copied it by hand? ”
When Ivan heard this, he was obviously interested, and asked several questions in a row.
He has a penchant for collecting antiquities, especially some legendary treasures with great prominence.
He knew that as long as the young man opposite was not stupid, the things he took out should definitely be treasures such as "unique books" and "unique books", so that he could be a little interested.
"This is the original manuscript!"
Raymond flashed an imperceptible confidence, paused for a moment, and then said, "This is the original manuscript of the handwritten book of Master Igris, the Potions Master of the Ten Stars!" ”
"What?!"
These words were like depth charges, and they exploded in Ivan's heart.
His small eyes flickered, cleverly hiding his shock.
With a roll of his eyes, he calmly took out a pair of white gloves from his pocket and put them on, and then he opened the codex without hurry and examined it carefully.
After a while, he was roughly sure that this was the note written by Master Seentia himself!
Regardless of the composition, style, and content of the paper, they all meet the conditions, and if it is fake, it will definitely not be hidden from his eyes.
This is a treasure in terms of content, source, and cultural relics value!
At this moment,
Ivan is really tempted, this is the handwritten note of Master Seentia who is "hard to find" by the arrogant and boundless Potions Masters of the Potions Masters Guild!
But even if his heart was churning, this shrewd fat man's face did not show the slightest discoloration.
"Antiquities are antiquities, but I don't think you look like an original manuscript?"
He looked at Raymond and said calmly, "I've heard that the original manuscript of the Potions Atlas written by Master Seendia was lost thousands of years ago."
Raymond obviously knew that the fat man's words must be trying to get away with it.
After dealing with him so many times in the game, wouldn't he not know that this fat man was actually a "master of cultural relics". With the professional identification technique just now, could he not tell the truth of this thing?
He said in an affirmative tone: "Your Excellency Ivan, I have asked an expert to identify it, this must be the original manuscript codex of Master Seentia's handwriting!" Of course, this thing is still an antiquity that we personally salvaged from the remains of a thousand-year-old shipwreck in a dangerous sea, so it naturally can't be faked. ”
"Oh? Did you salvage it yourself? ”
Ivan's pupils shrank slightly, reaffirming that his identification of the note was correct.
At the same time, he showed a hint of thought, although the kid in front of him was young, he was obviously not easy to fool.
From time to time, the pirates and adventurers who venture out on the periphery can salvage rare artifacts from the sea, and it makes sense that they can salvage some rare antiquities. But he didn't expect that the young pirate in front of him would be so lucky, and he actually salvaged the original manuscript of the Potions General Knowledge manuscript written by Master Seentia back then!
Raymond then smiled and said, "Of course, as you know, Mr. Ivan, the original manuscript of Master Seentia's handwriting is not just this one, but a complete series. When I salvaged it, it happened that there were still a few copies."
The number of topics is stopped,
He continued: "I have also read the contents of this notebook, and it contains extremely professional potions knowledge, and my potions master friends have also identified it, and there are many lost potions knowledge on it."
Now that the bait has been thrown, it's Raymond's turn to appetite.
"That's right."
If it was a codex, perhaps David Ivan would have hesitated.
But the young swordsman hinted that he had gotten more, even a complete set of Potions Generic Codex manuscripts!
How could he, with the vision of an "expert master", not know the value of this set of manuscripts?
Master Seentia's manuscript is "a thousand pages" on the auction market, even if this note is written about some trivial things in life, it is worth a lot, let alone the Potions Secret Codex?
This secret book, which is regarded as a classic divine book by the world's potions masters, is of immeasurable value to the potions knowledge recorded in it alone.
If the old Potions Guild guys know, they'll pay anything to get this Codex note!
Raymond urged at the right time: "So, Mr. Ivan, you have also seen that we are here with sincerity. ”
"Well, I do have some interest in this thing."
Ivan Mo gripped the codex notes in his hand, a little reluctant to leave his hand.
Before, he thought that the young pirate in front of him would not be able to take out the chips he was interested in, so he was not interested in dealing with the ore trade, but now he was worried about his "rainbow ore", how many notes could he get in exchange!
A small pirate group wouldn't need too many "rainbow ores", and if he really had a complete set of Potions Generic Secret Codex manuscripts, he would now feel that his "chips" were not enough.
Ivan is worthy of being a cunning businessman, even if he still desperately wants to pocket this note, but his expression is still unhurried.
"While this notebook does look like a Heroic Age artifact, whether it is a codex of Master Seentia needs to be determined."
He looked at Raymond and said casually, "So how many notes did you salvage?" Are you trying to trade these notes for rainbow ore? ”
"Mr. Ivan, I came today with sincerity, just for the rainbow ore."
Raymond said, "As for how many notes I have in my hand, it depends on how many rainbow ores Mr. Ivan can provide." ”
Ivan asked casually: "How much do you want?" ”
"I can eat as much as you can offer!"
Raymond's eyes narrowed slightly, and an imperceptible cold glint flashed in his eyes.
It's not the same as their original plan!
Originally, Colin only said that they needed enough "rainbow ore" to modify the Iron Toad. Because this rare ore is so valuable, they simply can't afford to buy too much.
But now, Raymond has changed his tune.
Because he sensed the hostility!
Ivan was slightly surprised: "Yo, it's not small." ”
Isn't this kid a little pirate, why do you want so much ore?
The doubts in my heart flashed away.
However, he was more happy in his heart.
The fact that this kid in front of him can speak means that he must exchange his hand for a treasure of the same value as this batch of ores.
Maybe it's not just the Potions Books, but also the treasures from other shipwrecks!
Now the old friends around him have hinted to themselves with the agreed signal, this kid is the captain Raymond of the "Ghost Pirates", the culprit who sank the Oliver family's fleet, they are looking for!
So, there's no way this guy will leave this ship island alive anyway!
Now all he has to do is to find out the whereabouts of those treasures as much as possible, and then let his old friend do it. If someone dies accidentally, the treasure will be lost, but it will be a big loss.
Ivan said confidently: "You don't have to worry about the quantity, there is absolutely only what you eat, and there is nothing I can't provide." ”
"Oh?"
The corners of Raymond's mouth curled up like a smile, but his eyes fell on the middle-aged man who walked in after Ivan.
With a slight glance, he moved away in an instant.
If he hadn't sensed the mistake just now, he felt a trace of "hostility" from this middle-aged man who seemed to be an assistant.
Not a hint of factional hostility, but like an ordinary killing machine.
I didn't have it when I walked in the door, but now I have it.
Obviously, maybe it was the middle-aged man who confirmed his identity and set off this killing machine!
Ivan explained: "As you know, the smelting equipment on the island can only smelt gold ore, and it is not up to the standard of smelting rainbow ore. And because of the recent disruption on the cargo route by the Giants, we haven't been able to bring the mined ore back to headquarters. So, now in my warehouse, at least hundreds of thousands of tons of ore are piled up"
Hearing this, Raymond's eyes suddenly lit up, and a crazy attention flashed through his mind.
"Can I see the quality of the ore first? You also know that rainbow ore is very difficult to refine, and if it is an inferior ore with too low purity, it is useless for me to take it."
With Arno by his side, he didn't worry about his safety.
But after all, they came this time for the "rainbow ore". If you go back empty-handed, I don't know if you will have a chance to get such a large amount of ore next time.
Since the other party obviously has bad intentions, Raymond has no intention of being polite, and will do it.
I was going to buy it, but now I have to grab it!
"You can rest assured of this! The purity of this layer of mineral deposit is very high, and the random samples of colored stone have reached an astonishing purity2, which is a high purity that is impossible in any mining area of the Endless Sea. ”
Until now, Ivan still didn't show much desire, and said calmly: "I'm also a little interested in the chips you took out. If you can really put up chips that satisfy me, maybe I'll sell you some rainbow ores as well. ”
The normal process of negotiation of a deal suddenly turned into a calculation of an old fox and a little fox intriguing with each other.
Everyone wants to empty the white wolf and get the "bait" in the other party's hands.
In the end, it depends on who is better.
"Pure 2 ore?"
When Raymond heard this, he was also slightly surprised, the purity of the ore was indeed much higher than expected.
However, in order to grab it, he must see the ore!
Thinking of this, he said, "Mr. Ivan, I'm sorry for this reluctance to ask. But before I trade, I'm going to take a look at the ore. ”
"Yes!"
Ivan hesitated for only a moment, then agreed.
If he did, he didn't plan to be in his manor. The treasures here are all found from all over the world, and breaking one of them is enough to make him feel distressed
The ore storehouse, it seems to be a good place to kill people.
In fact, Ivan heard Raymond's request to see the ore, and also guessed that a pirate might have something wrong with the ore.
However, he was not worried.
After all, in his mind, hundreds of thousands of tons of ore are enough to have a volume of tens of thousands of cubic meters!
The ordinary space ring is only one cubic meter of storage space, how much is he likely to move away if he moves?
Saying this, he said to the butler not far away: "Old John, you take these two guests to visit the ore warehouse." Wait until they are satisfied with the visit and have made a decision, and then inform me."
If you really want to fight, Ivan doesn't plan to stay with them.
After all, although the little pirate in front of him had a low level of transcendence, the news from the navy confirmed that he had the combat power to kill the high-level transcendent of Sequence 2.
"Yes, sir."
The old butler bowed and nodded.
He turned his face and gestured to Raymond and the others, "Two guests, please come here." ”
"Okay, I'm sorry for you."
Raymond pretended not to know, smiled and nodded.
Secretly, he had already used his mental power to inform Colin and Arno of the situation.
This time
He's going to do a big deal in the Davide family!
The first is the latest.
