Chapter 3 Chambers of Commerce

Looking at the heavy gate in front of him with a hint of luxury, Ling Yu knew that he had found the right place.

It is a stone building that is obviously more imposing than the house next to it, and the text on the sign is deliberately carved from golden wooden blocks, showing a slightly vulgar sense of luxury.

When you enter the lobby through the front door, you will see the reception desk in the center of the hall. Because it was only a small local chamber of commerce, there were surprisingly few guests here, and soon it was Ling Yu's turn.

In charge of the reception was a young girl dressed in professional attire and wearing a pair of gold-rimmed monocles, who looked very shrewd.

The girl pushed the frame of the mirror next to her ear and looked Ling Yu's face up and down with a scrutinizing eye: "What about the face you haven't seen, it's your first time coming to the Chamber of Commerce." ”

"Yes, do I need to go through any special procedures for my first visit?" Ling Yu said very respectfully. When it comes to the person you're about to borrow, it's always a good idea to be respectful.

"For the first time, we need to register first, so that we can carry out follow-up services." After the girl finished speaking, she handed over a paper that looked like a form.

After filling it out, Ling Yu handed the registration form back to the other party.

"Okay, so you can take advantage of the functions of this chamber...... Do you want to use our services now? ”

"What services does your Chamber of Commerce have?" Ling Yu didn't immediately make a request for a loan, but first asked about the function of the Chamber of Commerce.

"At this stage, the only open functions of the Chamber of Commerce are the deposit and withdrawal of money and goods, and the lending of funds."

“…… Do you mean that more features will be opened up in the future? ”

"I don't deny that there is a possibility." The girl replied calmly, seemingly not intending to reveal more information.

"And if I want to borrow money, how much can I borrow?" Ling Yu's tone was a little nervous, because it was directly related to whether his future plan could go smoothly.

"It depends on who the guest is and what they are...... If you are a guest, you can only borrow up to 10 silver coins with an interest of 1/10 of the amount, and you can only borrow for a maximum of three days, after which you must immediately return the principal plus interest. (1 gold coin = 100 silver coins = 10,000 copper coins)

"What if it's been more than three days?" Ling Yu asked tentatively.

The girl smiled and said, "Trust me, you wouldn't want to know that outcome." ”

It means that the consequences will be very miserable, right?

Ling Yu swallowed his saliva and said, "Then I'll borrow 10 silver coins." Although the risk of failure is very high, since it has come to this point, there is no reason to give up, so Ling Yu decisively chose to borrow the maximum amount.

"No problem." The girl snapped her fingers, and soon a young man dressed in blue came out of the deep door and placed a black box on the counter.

"10 silver coins, a total of 1,000 Els, please accept them."

"Thank you."

After accepting the silver coins, Ling Yu went to the bazaar again, ready to buy goods.

Considering the dwarves' personalities, Ling Yu thought that spirits were more likely to be favored by the dwarves, so he bought 20 bottles of spirits at once, costing up to 40 copper coins, and then exchanged the rest of the money for the cheapest liquor.

After making all the preparations, Ling Yu officially left the town and walked towards the rumored dwarven tribe.

Along the way, Ling Yu walked cautiously, fearing that he would encounter some monsters that he couldn't fight, causing him to be hanged. With good luck and Ling Yu's caution and high agility, he didn't encounter any danger along the way.

It's just that what I didn't expect was that this walk would take two or three hours, and he hadn't found the legendary dwarf tribe yet, Ling Yu couldn't help but regret it a little, now that the game has been on the service for more than five hours, he basically hasn't gained anything, and the advantage he has won so hard will be gone.

However, there is no regret in this world that the medicine is sold, and he has borrowed money like the Chamber of Commerce, and he has no way back, so he can only go one way to the end.

Gritting his teeth, Ling Yu continued to move forward, and suddenly, a figure resembling a figure came into view.

Finally seeing a hint of it, Ling Yu was overjoyed and quickened his pace.

When he got closer, Ling Yu realized that the figure was a dwarf chopping wood.

Seeing that the target dwarf was in front of him, Ling Yu was so excited that he almost burst into tears. On the other hand, the dwarves on the other side showed a wary look after seeing Ling Yu approaching.

Seeing that Ling Yu wanted to continue to get closer, the dwarf directly opened his mouth and scolded, "Stop! Humans, you are not welcome here! ”

Ling Yu paused, looked at the wary look on the dwarf's face, and then took out a bottle of spirits from the package and handed it to the guarded dwarf: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you, I just wanted to make a deal with you, and I will leave as soon as the deal is completed." ”

Seeing the liquor that Ling Yu took out, the dwarf's attitude immediately changed drastically, from the original vigilance to a hospitable face, and his face really changed faster than turning a book: "It turns out that you are a businessman, welcome welcome." ”

Ling Yu: "......"

Although he knew that spirits were very attractive to dwarves, he didn't expect that it would be so big that it could directly make the other party's attitude change one hundred and eighty degrees.

After gaining the friendship of this dwarf, Ling Yu entered the dwarven town smoothly.

System: You have discovered a dwarven town, your knowledge +1.

System: You are the first player in the game to enter an alien tribe, and you gain +5 reputation.

I didn't expect that the first discovery of an alien town would have such a benefit, which is an unexpected gain, but what is the use of this knowledge? There doesn't seem to be a knowledge introduction in the game forums either.

Without continuing to dwell on this issue, Ling Yu directly rushed towards the dwarf tribe with an excited face.

After actually coming to the dwarven tribe, Ling Yu found that he still underestimated the appeal of wine to the dwarves.

For the dwarves, they can skip any food, they can not engage in any entertainment, but they must not drink alcohol. It is not an exaggeration to say that wine is their greatest weakness.

Sadly, the dwarves, despite their unique advantages in forging, are ignorant of farming, which makes them unable to produce even the worst ale on their own. That's why, even though dwarves hate humans, they still have to maintain a certain level of cooperative relationship with them. The reason why this dwarven tribe was founded so close to human towns was also because of the ease of obtaining ale.

However, for some reason, the dwarven tribe broke off its trade with humans, and the dwarves in the town did not drink human ale for quite some time. This was also the reason why the dwarf had such a big reaction after seeing the liquor brought by Ling Yu.

Dwarves did not have a special merchant profession, and transactions with foreign tribes were generally handled by the patriarch or shaman.

Because this is only a small tribe, there are no clergy stationed, and the object of trade can only be the patriarch of this dwarven tribe.

The lethality of spirits is huge, and after learning that Ling Yu came to trade with spirits, the dwarven patriarch directly sent 20 points of favor, which is equivalent to the total income of 5 or 6 difficult tasks.

Due to its proximity to the human kingdom, this dwarven tribe also uses currency. For the spirits brought by Ling Yu, the patriarch gave a sky-high price of 150 Els, that is, 1.5 silver coins per bottle.

After hearing the price quoted by the patriarch, Ling Yu's brain fell directly into a crash, and he could hardly believe his ears. It wasn't until the dwarven patriarch said it a few more times that he realized that he was not dreaming, and that it was indeed a bottle of 1.5 silver coins.

Although I had long guessed that the profits of interracial trading must be amazing, I didn't expect it to be so amazing.

Happiness came too suddenly, and Ling Yu couldn't come back to his senses all of a sudden.

After selling all the 20 bottles of spirits he brought, Ling Yu earned 31.5 silver coins at once (the extra 1.5 silver coins are an additional bonus from 1 point of charm), and his funds tripled! Even if you pay off the interest and principal together, you will have more than 20 silver coins left!

What is the concept of 20 silver coins?

At this stage, a professional-level player can earn more than a dozen copper coins if he normally farms monsters for an hour, not counting consumption. There will be a little more to do the task, but it will only be about thirty or forty copper coins.

It can be said that unless you spend money to collect in-game currency on players, or have some kind of luck and encounter some adventure, it is almost impossible to transfer to double-digit silver coins in the early stage.

And that's not all. At the moment when the transaction was completed, a system prompt sounded in Ling Yu's ears.

System: You earn more than 50% profit in a formal trade, and you get the achievement: Tianzong Business Talent I.

Tianzong Business I: Earn more than 50% profit in one transaction. Effect: You can view the special products of your town, and the number of parcel slots is +10 (the base is 50).

To move to the next level, you need to earn more than 100% profit on one trade.

System: You have earned more than 100% profit in a live trade, and you have earned the achievement: Tianzong Business II.

Tianzhong Business II: Earn more than 100% profit in one trade. Effect: You can view the special products of your town, the number of parcels is +20, and the entry fee is waived.

To move to the next level, you need to earn more than 200% profit on a single trade.

System: You have earned more than 200% profit in a live trade, and you have earned the achievement: Tianzong Business Talent III.

Tianzhong Business III: Earn more than 200% profit in one trade. Effect: You can view the special products of your town, the number of parcels is +40, the entry fee is waived and all money attack skill damage is increased by 100%.

To move up to the next level, you need to earn more than 400% profit on a single trade.

Looking at the system prompt that appeared in front of him, Ling Yu couldn't help but be glad that he had made the choice in the first place.

Needless to say, the number of parcel slots is increased to forty, which allows him to carry more items than other players. Whether it's trading or leveling up monsters, it can play a significant role. The ability to view special products can save him a lot of time investigating intelligence, which can allow him to get the information he needs faster.

The power of waiving the entry fee and increasing the power of money-based skills may not be useful at this stage, but they are also a good advantage.

Although he made an unbelievable amount of money all of a sudden, Ling Yuzhi was not carried away by joy.

The difficulty of the game in the Firmament Realm can be described as obvious to all, especially in terms of money and equipment, it is even more demanding to the point of being outrageous, and it is impossible to leave such a big gap for players in terms of business.

The reason for such an amazing profit this time should be just a miracle achieved by a few coincidences, and the same experience should not happen a second time.
