Chapter 21: The Value of Gold Coins

With torches in hand, Green and Sakia lead the two traveling merchants into the boss hall deep in the tunnel. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"The earthly ones are ...... Magic Circle? Herola stared at the hall in the darkness.

As a half-orc, Herola has dim vision, and although she can't see in the dark, she is much better than ordinary people in low-light environments. The light of the torches wasn't bright, but it was enough for Herora to see what's going on in the cavern.

For such a situation, Green has long been prepared.

"Yes." Green nodded and admitted calmly, "This should be an evil magic array. When I came, there were a lot of undead crowding here, probably because of this magic circle. "Green tried to mislead Glora.

"We're not good at magic, but we can feel an evil energy in it." Herola's expression was a little serious.

Nonsense! This teleportation magic array leads to the witch dungeon, and in the process of using the teleportation, some other breath will be leaked, and it is precisely because of that breath that Herola misunderstood. Green was pleased with this misunderstanding - in any case, the existence of this teleportation array was successfully concealed.

So Green nodded with a serious face and said, "Well, so I'm going to destroy this magic array." You can't keep this scourge of people! ”

"You're right." Herola nodded, agreeing with Green.

"Let's not talk about that, let's get down to business now." Green pointed to a pile of ore and broken copper and iron next to him, "The loot is here, in addition to some broken weapons and equipment, there are some rich ores of extremely high purity. "When we cleaned up the magic circle before, all the loot had been moved to the entrance of the hall and piled up, but except for the magic iron ore and the piece of adamantite in Green's hand, the others were not very valuable things.

"There are so many ores? It's a pity that this kind of thing is very bulky and not worth much. Gheroa deliberately had a look of disappointment on her face.

Green couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Ordinary ore is indeed worthless, but what about Demon Iron Ore?" ”

"Oh?" The two traveling merchants were finally moved.

In the world of Io, ordinary items are not very valuable, but the price of anything that comes into contact with magic will increase dramatically. Magic Iron is about the same hardness as steel, but it has extremely strong magic resistance, and is one of the main materials for crafting various anti-magic equipment and demon-breaking weapons. Armor and shields crafted from demonite ore are the coveted equipment of all warriors.

Green picked up a small piece of demonite from the ground and threw it over.

The two traveling merchants hurriedly caught the ore that Green had thrown over and began to identify it.

Green took the opportunity to count the demonic iron ores on the ground and estimated the offer in his mind.

"Estimated 5 units of Demonite."

In the later stages of the game, the price of Demonite Ore is basically stable at 5 gold coins per unit, but it has also been sold for 20 gold coins per unit when it is expensive, in other words, the value of this batch of ore should be between 25~100 gold coins.

"Five units of demonic iron ore can smelt at least ten demonic iron ingots, which is enough to make one piece of armor!" Green turned back to the two merchants and said, "I think you also know how much a set of demonic armor made of demonic iron ore is worth. ”

"It can't be said that the wages of a high-ranking blacksmith are much more expensive than materials." It was Lorenz who spoke, "And it will not be easy to transport these ores to the city, in case you encounter undead or robbers along the way, you will lose all your money." ”

Green waved his hand: "Mr. Lorenz, I'm not a businessman, and I don't like to bargain. If I think it's suitable, I'll make a deal, and if I don't, I'll transport the ore to the city and find a blacksmith to make equipment. ”

"En......" Lorenz looked down and thought for a moment, holding out three fingers.

Green raised his eyebrows: "Three hundred gold coins? ”

Lorenz: "You're really good at laughing, a piece of demon-resistant armor doesn't cost much." I mean thirty gold coins. ”

Oh? The price of an anti-magic armor is 300 gold coins? Green's eyes narrowed, and he continued to bargain: "But thirty gold coins is too little, and at this price, I might as well transport it back to the city to find a blacksmith." ”

Lorenz shook his head: "If you can transport this batch of demonic iron ore to the city, you may be able to sell it for a higher price, but the various checkpoints and taxes along the way will make this batch lose most of it." If you encounter enemies on the road or encounter forced buying and selling, you may even lose all your money! ”

Hearing Lorenz's words, Green couldn't help but sigh: It's over, my bottom line was guessed by him.

Lorenz was right, it was impossible for Green to actually transport the Demonic Iron Ore back to the city for sale, but the reason was not because Green was afraid of being taxed by the level, but because he couldn't level up anymore with so much Demonic Iron Ore.

For players, level is everything, and the purpose of making money is just to be able to level up faster. Wasting a few days or even a dozen days of precious leveling time for a few dozen gold coins? This is not in the player's interest.

In fact, if it weren't for these two merchants, Green would have planned to give up those demonic iron ores.

“…… Well, you convinced me. Thirty gold coins, this batch of magic iron ore is yours. After a brief hesitation, Green gave up on further bargaining and readily agreed to the deal.

Thirty gold coins is already a lot. According to the experience summed up by the players, one gold coin in the game is almost equivalent to the purchasing power of 3,000 soft sister coins, and 30 gold coins are equivalent to the purchasing power of 90,000 soft girl coins on the earth.

"But we don't have that much money on us now." Lorenz's next words made Green feel like he was being fooled.

Greene: "...... Are you kidding? ”

"We can exchange goods for them." Lorenz added.

Green looked at Lorenz expressionlessly: "......"

"You must have been through a tough battle before, right? The weapons and equipment should be worn out to the fullest, and I think the various weapons and equipment should be more suitable for your needs than gold. "As a professional businessman, he was keenly aware of Green's needs.

Although the gun magic is powerful, the mana cost is not a small amount for the current Green. If you can update your equipment and replenish your supplies, you can also improve your ability to continue fighting.

“…… Well, you convinced me. However, the price of the commodity can only be calculated at cost. ”

"Of course!" Lorenz smiled and invited Green to the carriage to look at the goods.
