Article 147 Unemployment
The shortage of alchemy potions in the Far East lasted only one day, and by the time the alchemy shops reopened the next day, people found that the shelves were already full of alchemy potions.
It was only when someone went in and carefully asked the price that they felt that it was better to be out of stock!
Although there was a shortage yesterday, the price on the black market was only twice as high, except for those alchemy potions that were used in relatively small quantities, most of the alchemy potions were bought at any time.
But today, the cheapest price of the potions in this alchemy shop has also increased tenfold.
Of course, if asked, those bosses are all vibrating, after all, these bosses use their own private channels to transfer from other regions, the maintenance of the cost of favors and the emergency transportation of goods have to spend a lot of money, and now they are already losing money at this price!
Generally, some small citizens with savings can still hold on, because they are usually used to preparing one or two more alchemy potions, so they can still wait and see, but those civilians who only rely on mining and farming for a living can't hold on, they usually can't hold on to buy an alchemy potion to survive it, and even have to share one point with water, how can they have the money to buy an expensive alchemy potion to prepare.
"Please, these are 12 gold coins, all of our belongings, you can do it, sell us one, no, half a piece!" A woman knelt in the alchemy potion counter and kowtowed to her boss.
"You want to buy half of 12 pieces, and now the latest price of [Minor Injury Treatment Agent] is 40 gold coins, and half of it is 20 gold coins, the difference between these 8 gold coins, you look for me!" Risbay. Sneder was disdainful, these pariahs always wanted to kowtow and buy expensive alchemy products at extremely cheap prices.
If he kowtowed to 8 gold coins, he could knock those big merchants in the imperial capital who spent a lot of money bankrupt.
"Please! Please!! "The woman still keeps kowtowing, her man works in the mines, and yesterday he accidentally hit his leg by a falling rock, and if he can't use the healing potion today, his leg will be ruined!
That's the pillar of the family!
Thinking of this, she stumbled harder, and her forehead quickly broke against the hard slate, and the blood and dust stained her face.
The women's pleas quickly attracted a large crowd of onlookers, who pointed their fingers.
Listening to most of the arguments about asking for money for his own death, regardless of other people's lives, LisbΓ© became more and more annoyed, and the fact that he and several alchemy potions had joined forces to raise the price was accurate.
So the more disgusted he became when he saw the woman, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he kicked the poor woman out.
"Get out! Don't be in my shop, get out if you don't have money, I'm not a temple! β
"Please, my lord! Give me 1 potion! The woman's head was embarrassed, and her chest ached, but at the thought of her husband in the hospital bed, she crawled back with both hands and feet, and clung to Risbey's boots and pleaded.
Seeing that his newly bought buckskin boots were contaminated with blood, Risbay's anger suddenly rose.
He lifted his right foot and stomped the woman's hands, then gritted his teeth and twisted his heel hard.
"Ahh Under the sharp pain of the heart, the woman finally let go of her hand, holding her injured fingers and couldn't help but roll.
"You, you're a bully! If you don't sell it, you won't sell it, why should you step on her hand! β
"Aren't you afraid of the gods punishing you?!"
Looking at the poor woman, the crowd of onlookers became excited for a while, and some even rolled up their sleeves to beat the black-hearted businessman down.
"Look what! If you untouchables dare to slander me again, I will find the city guards to arrest you!" Get you through to jail! He shouted loudly as he pointed at the crowd of onlookers.
The crowd of onlookers was originally very angry, but when they heard the words "city guards", they immediately deflated like deflated prickly dolphins.
Johnson, who walked to the entrance of this alley, saw this scene and said loudly: "Hehe, that's a good point! I'm just about to get you! β
The civilians couldn't help but feel sad when they saw the well-armored city guards behind Johnson.
"Commander Johnson, I didn't expect you to come so quickly! It just so happened that this crazy woman was taken away, and she disturbed me in selling potions, and she was arrested and tortured, maybe...... Hey, what are you catching me for?! Lisbay was very excited at first, pointing to the woman who fell to the ground and sobbing excitedly, but unexpectedly, two people from the city guard came up and cut off his two hands, and at the same time, two cold and hard military boots stomped his head on the ground.
"What? Risbay. Sned, why didn't you think that today would be there when you conspired with the bosses of those alchemy potions to raise the price?! Take! With every word Johnson spoke, Spey's face turned pale, and at last he had collapsed to the ground and was carried away by two tall city guards.
Only then did the civilians come to their senses, and it turned out that the city guards had come to arrest them, but the alchemy potion shop that had raised the price.
"I'll just say that no matter how the price changes again and again, it's all this ** businessman!"
"Yes, they are in the same league as the Alchemy Guild!"
Johnson picked up the woman and carefully sprinkled a bottle of [healing potion] on her hand, this man who had never been arrogant when drinking and eating had such a careful action for the first time.
It wasn't until the skin and flesh on the back of the woman's hand healed that Johnson tilted his head to force the tears back into his eyes, and easily stuffed a bottle of [Recovery Potion] into her hand.
"Take it back to your husband!"
"Thank you! Thank you, sir!! The woman knelt down and kowtowed heavily, and then wiped her tears and ran home.
Johnson didn't stay here for long, and there are still a few grain merchants who haven't gone yet, so they have to hurry up, and these bastards in the province get the news and hide.
", run for Lao Tzu, if that ** merchant runs away, I'll break your legs!"
When the city guards, who had long been red-eyed, heard this, they immediately howled and pounced like hungry wolves coming down the mountain.
Red Leaf Castle, the castle lord's mansion.
"Okay, good, all the people in Red Leaf City are smart people!"
Hearing the feedback below, Morey laughed angrily, saying that there are guys who make a fortune, and he has seen it today.
"The guide price is given according to the average price of goods in the past 1 month, but all the shops that are higher than this guide price are all sealed for me!" Morey signed his first Emergency City Lord's Order.
"My lord, this will not make them bow their heads, they will probably close down to resist this order." Corey couldn't help but say worriedly.
"Out of business?! No, Corey, I want those people to get me out of work! Morey's hand slammed into the table.
