Chapter 104: Elite Businessman
Riding the light of the glowing lanterns, the merchants of Demon Fire Town moved unhurriedly along the road of the campfire, and the creaking of carriages on the gravel road reverberated rhythmically above the stone walls on either side of the cliff.
Ye Ming and An An were a little sleepy, and they were dozing in a daze under the shaking of the carriage, and at about three o'clock in the morning, the carriage stopped.
Ye Ming An'an immediately came to his senses.
There are only two reasons why the carriage stopped, either because it encountered falling rubble and needed to clear the road, or because it encountered a creature that suddenly appeared.
The surroundings were quiet, and there were no threatening creatures. The two got out of the carriage and saw that the business travelers had also come down one after another, and walked to the front of the business travel team together.
"The Mystery Merchant has appeared!" An An whispered excitedly.
At this moment, not far in front of the caravan team, there was a faint light. The light was emitted by an ancient lamp, which hovered over the shoulders of a mysterious man wrapped in a pitch-black robe.
The man walked up and down the cliffs on either side as if he were walking, unaware of the caravan that appeared.
The light of the ancient lamp was faint, and only the mysterious merchant was completely enveloped, and the rest of the cliff was still dark. In the middle of the night, a mysterious merchant in a black hat roamed like a ghost on both sides of the cliff.
There is more than one mystery merchant. About 500 meters away from the caravan, there was an even fainter light swimming at night, and it was supposed to be a mysterious merchant.
"Old rule, draw lots."
"Okay."
When they met the mysterious merchant, all the merchants seemed very excited, but there was a rule between them. To trade with the mysterious merchants, not in a swarm, but one by one.
The order is based on the lot, and in a small pocket there are fifty slips of paper with numbers written on them, ranging from one to fifty. The person who wants to trade draws these slips of paper and arranges them according to the size of the number, the higher the number, the lower the line.
Ye Ming pulled out a note, and the number on it was 18, which was considered to be in the middle position. An An drew a forward position, which was 9.
"Little lover, do you have any money? The minimum value of items held by the Mystery Merchant is 10,000. Do you need me to lend you some? An An whispered to Ye Ming.
"No, I still have some savings." Ye Ming shook his head.
"You're lucky to be able to meet a mysterious merchant the first time you go out with a caravan. Some of the people in our current business travel team have been traveling for almost five years, and they haven't met them once. An An said.
"Didn't you say you've met a few mysterious merchants?" Ye Ming asked.
"Well, that's what I ran into with another caravan. I was young and didn't have much savings, so I couldn't afford anything. An An said with some regret.
"But now I have some savings." An An turned to smile.
"Shhh, An An, don't talk too loudly, Lao Chen has gone up to trade, everyone should be quiet." Someone reminded me.
"Oh." An An nodded obediently.
The merchant who had drawn the No. 1 note had already begun to walk towards the first mysterious merchant. The first deal between him and the mysterious merchant was quickly settled, probably in less than a minute.
Soon, the first man returns, and the second begins to approach the mysterious merchant.
When it was An An's turn, she bought back three items. The first item is the same item as the second, called the Cangluan Bird's Nest.
Because he wanted to keep quiet, although An An was very happy when he bought back the two Cangluan Bird's Nests, he didn't make a sound, he just pulled Ye Ming's sleeves and let Ye Ming look at the two small bird's nests.
This little dancing girl seems to be very fond of Cangluan Bird, otherwise she would not spend a lot of money to buy two Cangluan Bird Nests, she can buy and sell other things to make money, Cangluan Bird Nest must be in preparation for the hatching of two Cangluan Bird eggs.
The third item An An bought was a precious sapphire necklace that was highly collectible and should be able to sell for a good price.
Half an hour later, it was Ye Ming's turn.
Ye Ming walked towards the mysterious merchant, and when he got closer, he saw that this person was similar to the image of the black-robed man in Demon Fire Town, but it was wrapped more tightly, and a black hat blocked his entire face, and only a bearded chin could be seen.
"Buy something." Ye Ming spoke.
"What do you want to buy?" The mysterious merchant's voice was low and hoarse.
"Then I'll have to see what you have here." Ye Ming said.
"I can offer you something different that no one else can buy. Because you are different from other people who come to talk to me about business, I feel a familiar breath in you. The mysterious merchant spoke slowly.
"A familiar aura? What do you mean? Ye Ming was puzzled.
"That's it...... A taste of old friends. Are you following these business trips, are you going to do business? Talking about business is not a simple thing, and you are not suitable to do it. I can provide you with some elite businessmen to do the business for you. The mysterious merchant said.
"Oh? Let's talk about it. Ye Ming said.
"I have more than a dozen cards of the Mystery Merchant here, each card represents a Mystery Merchant with different potential, you can take a look at these three first." The Mystery Merchant pulls out three cards.
These three cards are the same size as the character cards, and the cards have some intricate engravings, and in the center of the cards, there is a character drawing that matches the appearance of the mysterious merchant.
The first Mystery Merchant card with a few words written on it: "A businessman, this merchant has the talent of a mysterious merchant and is a clever tongue." Talent role: When negotiating and trading, you can often increase or lower the price of your own items. ”
"The rate of increase and decrease is between 5 and 10 percent, and the ratio is between 1 percent and 5 percent."
The simple point of the talent is that you can bargain and raise prices, and the success rate of bargaining is 5 to 10 percent, and the amount of gold coins you can haggle for is 1 to 5 percent of the total value of the item.
The second Mystery Merchant card, which reads: "Quest for a Capable Person, this Merchant has the gift of a Mysterious Merchant, who can read words and looks." Talents: Can establish good relations with merchants in various business regions, so as to find out the whereabouts of precious items and various mysterious news. ”
"The success rate of finding precious objects and mysterious news is five percent."
The businessman of this card, the greatest ability is to find out the news, and he is an expert in information gathering.
The third Mystery Merchant card is introduced as follows: "Management Talent, this Merchant has the talent of a Mystery Merchant, and integrity is the foundation. Talent role: operating the store market, often can have a super high reputation, integrity first, have a way of hospitality that satisfies the merchants and buyers, and can gain a foothold in the business area in a short period of time, and starting from scratch is the biggest feature. ”
This card of the mysterious merchant is all about being able to create a store of your own in a short period of time.
The three cards of the mysterious elite businessman, Ye Ming was very satisfied.
"Didn't you say there are a dozen cards for elite merchants? I'd like to see the others. After reading the three cards, Ye Ming felt that it was not enough.
"Although your identity is special, you can only see three first. The price of one card is 100,000, if you buy these three, I will take out the rest of the elite merchant cards. The mysterious merchant said.
"So expensive?" Ye Ming was stunned. 100,000 sheets, then he can just buy one now.
"Is it expensive? These merchants have endless potential, and what they can do for you is much more than 100,000 gold coins. The mysterious merchant said.
He was right, if there were elite businessmen who could do business for Ye Ming, it would be great.
