Chapter 180: There is a way to make money!
"Is this the capital of the Slan Empire?" Looking at the city in front of me, I shook my head. "Forget it, with the productivity of this world, it's already good to be able to do this, I'm too demanding."
After paying a few silver coins to enter the city, I looked around at the buildings in the streets, looking for a place to stay for a while.
It's been two days since I heard in the bar that there was a Space Demon Core auction at the Royal Auction of the Slan Empire.
I followed the river all the way to the southeast, and Feifei stopped for two days to arrive at the capital city built on the river, Tumaco.
But if the capital of the country is established by the river, there is no fear that the hostile country will send a fleet to kill directly at the doorstep?
What a self-confidence!
But speaking of which, it seems that I haven't seen any fleets in this world, so doesn't there even have a navy in this world?
After finding a random inn and settling on my room, I wandered around the streets to see if I could get a lot of gold coins in a short time.
It's really a trick, it seems that because of the auction, the hotel accommodation fee in Tumaca City has increased several times more than usual.
If I hadn't wanted to go out of the city to shop on the floor, I would have demolished the hotel of your profiteers.
However, because of the auction, the crowd density in Tumac City is far from that of ordinary cities, as long as you want to make money, it is still very easy, the key is how to get a large amount of gold coins in a short time, which is more headache.
Speaking of which, I've only been around for a long time. This is already the sixth conscription notice.
Looking at the crowd of onlookers in front of me, and the sign hanging on the wooden pole in the middle of the crowd, I thought speechlessly.
"It's strange, even if it's an ordinary legion conscription, why is the Royal Cavalry Regiment also conscripted?"
Household Cavalry Regiment? What's that?
Although I was a little curious, I continued to walk forward without stopping.
"Even if it's a conscription for the Royal Cavalry Regiment, do you think others will want you at your level?"
"That is, the Royal Cavalry Regiment was built by our royal family of the Silan Empire with a huge amount of money, and it is not inferior to the Holy See cavalry of the Temple of Light of the Holy Empire."
Papal cavalry? The kind of cavalry that crossed the northern mountains of Crow and picked up Alice?
That's a humanoid moving gold coin, could it be that the Silan Empire also has similar cavalry?
Do you want to steal a few sets of armor and sell them?
Forget it. Even if you can steal it. You can't make a move within the territory of the Silan Empire, and it's a waste of time to go back and forth to other countries, and it's not cost-effective.
"Even if the Household Cavalry Regiment is recruited, there is not enough weaponry. Will they be able to arm enough cavalry? ”
"You don't have to worry about that. As early as a month ago. The military department placed an order, and now a large number of blacksmiths have gathered in the capital to build equipment. And as long as the equipment built meets the requirements, the equipment that is transported from other places will also be purchased by the military department. ”
Oh. Buying equipment, it seems that there is a way to make money, you can go and see it.
The profits of the arms business are very exaggerated.
I took out the map of the city I had purchased from the Mercenary Guild and looked at it, and then I walked in the direction of the military headquarters of the Slan Empire.
"Miss Magician, please stay." When I arrived at the headquarters of the Slan Empire, I was about to enter when a guard stopped me.
"You can't enter here without an appointment, Master Magician." After seeing the magician's badge hanging from the buckle on my shoulder, the guard said to me respectfully.
"I heard that you collect equipment here, what is the situation?" A gold coin was flicked out of my finger and landed in the palm of the guard's hand.
After thinking about it, I decided to find this guard to find out the truth first, since I can watch the door here, I think the news is very well-informed.
"Master Magician, the military department is indeed acquiring equipment, but it must be made according to uniform specifications and styles, and qualified equipment will be purchased." The guard clenched his palms and said.
"In this case, who is responsible for the acquisition of equipment in the military department, can I talk to him?" After thinking about it, I spoke.
"Master Magician, you don't need to make an appointment for your identity, you can directly meet the Quartermaster General, and I will ask someone to lead you forward." The guard said as he bent over.
"Find someone to lead the way."
Seeing his subordinates leading the logistics office of the military headquarters in front of this magician, the doorman's respectful face disappeared directly, and he said to his subordinates on the side with a cold face: "Report to me, a very young seventh-order wind magician." Go and inquire about the information first, and try to get it together if possible. ”
"This honorable young lady magician, I don't know what you are looking for me." After passing through the layers of guards and leading the logistics office of the military department, the chief quartermaster of the Slan Empire squinted his eyes and said to me.
"Don't talk nonsense, I heard that you collect equipment here, and directly tell me the specifications and specifications, as well as the purchase price." I looked around and said. "If appropriate, I have equipment to sell."
"I didn't expect Miss Magician to come and sell equipment to me, I always thought that only blacksmiths would build equipment." The chubby quartermaster shook his head with a smile, then pulled out a stack of materials from the shelf behind him and placed it in front of my desk: "This is the equipment requirement we need to acquire, you can take a look." ”
Well, in addition to a full set of heavy cavalry armor wrapped from head to toe, the whole set also includes a spear, a two-handed sword, and a cavalry round shield, and the purchase price adds up to 3,950 gold coins.
If it is not sold alone, but a complete set, the price can be increased a little, 4000 gold coins.
"Do you have any materials?" After reading this set of design drawings, I almost knew what to expect.
"If we need to come up with materials, then the purchase price of a complete set will become 1,000 gold coins." Probably because he was in constant contact with this data, the quartermaster didn't think to speak.
"Oh, but the market price of raw materials for this set of equipment is only 1,500 gold coins at most." Taking a sip of the tea poured by the guard, I spoke.
"Because our raw materials are extracted directly from the war readiness warehouse of the military department, so." The chief quartermaster said with some embarrassment.
Oh, that is, if you want to take it out through layers of buckles?
What a cheat!
When I came, I went to the metal market in Tumak, because the military department called blacksmiths to build equipment, although the price of metal raw materials did not fluctuate much, but there was often a shortage of raw materials, and sometimes even if you have money, you may not be able to buy metal raw materials.
If I really want to go to the market to buy raw materials, what if the raw materials are suddenly out of stock?
Do you want me to go directly to the dwarves and order raw materials?
By the time the metal materials are shipped over, the auction will already be over, so I'm still hairy!
Forget it, I'll let them pay for the raw materials and the processing fee, although the income is small, but it is safe.
As long as you can process a large amount of gold in a short period of time, you can still earn enough gold!
"What if I have more equipment here than you have on your blueprints?" I looked up at the Quartermaster General. "Do you increase the price?"
"If it's the same style of equipment that exceeds our standards, we'll increase the price at our discretion." The quartermaster squinted at me.
"I hate uncertainty, so just tell me how much gold you add if your performance is exceeded." I slapped the finished design on the table.
"I'm sorry, I'm just a pathetic logistics manager, I can't be the master. Why don't you take a set of equipment out and I'll go to the army to appraise and try it out, and then give you a suitable price, how about it? "The quartermaster looked at me pitifully.
It's all in charge of logistics, and it's pitiful?
If you have the ability, you can abdicate and let the virtuous, and there are many people who will rush to the top.
I don't believe that you, the quartermaster, can't get a little oil and water!
"Okay, then I'll do it again in three days." After thinking about it for a moment and giving enough time for all the unexpected, I spoke. "You have unlimited equipment here?"
"You have to know that equipment is consumed very quickly, as long as you have as much as I want." The quartermaster's squinting eyes flashed.
"Get enough gold." With that, I turned around and left the military headquarters.
I hope you don't cry when the time comes! (To be continued......)
