Chapter 17: A Trip to Manchester City
The three of them glanced at each other, and finally Gers stood up to speak, and it seemed that the division of labor among the dwarves was relatively clear.
"Although there are different types of these low-level equipment, the price difference in the market is not very large, so we don't need to bother to give you different processing fees. The price of these pieces of equipment in the market is between 20 and 50 gold, and of course, we will increase the price by at least half after you enchant it. So......" Gers thought for a moment and said, "What do you think of the price we give you for 2 gold coins per piece?"
The corners of Zhao Yan's mouth curved slightly, and he said decisively: "No problem!"
At the same time, I sighed in my heart, the products of the dwarf clan are really expensive, and I heard the goblin patriarch say that the general low-grade equipment is basically about a hundred silver coins, but I didn't expect them to shout the price of 20 gold coins. Converted, for the same product, 1 dwarf brand can be worth 200 ordinary brands, this is the brand effect!
But Zhao Yan also deeply knows that this brand of the dwarf clan is not only their brand, but their things are indeed genuine!
2 gold coins!It sounds like a little less, but to convert it into copper coins, it is 2,000,000 copper coins, for the current goblin conditions, in fact, there are a lot, and the materials needed for these low-level equipment do not need to go to the market to buy at all, they can be obtained near the goblin clan, except for labor, it is almost pure profit.
A piece of 2 gold coins, 500 pieces is 1000 gold coins, that is, 1 crystal coin, with this 1 crystal coin, the materials of the second phase of the goblin clan project have the capital to buy, that is, the normal operation will start. In that case, what else is there to consider?
The first time I did business, I didn't have to think about how much money I would make, but I wanted to make the heart of the goblin factory turn, and wasn't that the purpose of coming out? Making money was the long-term goal, and now the primary goal was to open up the production line. With production lines and channels, are you still afraid that there will be no money to make?
Gers smiled with satisfaction and said lightly: "Okay, we still have some stock here, and we will be able to get all the goods in a month." ”
"Okay!"
Seeing Gers looking at him with strange eyes, Zhao Yan knew what he meant, looked embarrassed, and said with a smile: "This...... Well, first of all, please believe in my sincerity. But I have to tell you that we goblins, and your equipment has to be dragged to us for processing, so ...... So I'm afraid it's really powerless in terms of deposit. But trust me, I will never deceive you, I can swear to God, no...... It's an oath to the Mother Goddess!"
What the!
Lu Dan and Gers looked at each other, looking at Zhao Yan incredulously, looking for the dwarf tribe to do business, and after the business was negotiated, they actually said that they had no money? If we don't have money, can we take 500 pieces of equipment with you? You know, this is also our hard work! What if you don't get it back? Then didn't we do a big deal?
Lu Dan was even a little angry, and shouted: "No! Absolutely not! This is not in accordance with the rules!"
Although Gers didn't say anything, he also frowned, which immediately made Zhao Yan extremely embarrassed.
No problem!
Suddenly, the chieftain, who had been talking much, suddenly walked out from between Lu Dan and Gers, approached Zhao Yan, stared at his eyes, and suddenly burst into a kind smile, "I believe in you!"
"But the chief ......," Ludan advised.
"Needless to say!" said the chieftain, "just because he saved our dwarven children, we should also believe in him......!
Zhao Yan was shocked in his heart, "This dwarven god can actually speak the language of the earth?"
After perfecting the cooperation with the chiefs and the elders, Zhao Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and the purpose of this trip was finally half completed. In the face of the life and death of the goblin, he didn't dare to be sloppy.
There was still a month before the day of getting the goods, Zhao Yan thought about it, and decided to use this time to find the Great Demon Master Gully Siqiu, if he only cared about doing business and did not improve himself, it would never work. Zhao Yan's luck is also good, according to the chief, Manchester City is not far from here, only five or six days away, and there happened to be a businessman in the village who wanted to go to Manchester City to deliver goods, so Zhao Yan hitchhiked by the way.
The chieftain cooperated with Lu Dan and Gers to personally send Zhao Yan out of the village, and the entire village and tribe were full of busy dwarves, Zhao Yan not only thought of the Tababa village where he was located, but the goblins there were also busy all day and night, working hard. Unconsciously, Zhao Yan actually thought very much about the goblins, but he didn't expect that in just a few months of getting along, he had established an inseparable relationship with them deep in his heart.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yan suddenly had a firm idea, in addition to studying goblin technology assiduously out of a hobby, he also wanted to develop the goblin into a prosperous tribe, or even a big country.
Although it is a distant dream for him now, Zhao Yan believes that as long as he has confidence, he will definitely succeed.
A shadow blocked the sunlight and covered Zhao Yan's entire body, and Zhao Yan looked up and saw a silver-gray statue.
Zhao Yan stopped and looked at the statue carefully. This is a heroic man with a bright gaze and a pleasant posture. At this moment, he was squinting at the bird hovering over his shoulder, and his hand reached out into the air as if to pet it.
Seeing that Zhao Yan was so interested, the chieftain was also very proud on his face, and explained: "This is the patron saint of our dwarf clan, and that is his patron beast, the Fire Phoenix. ”
Zhao Yan was taken aback, "He's an evil god?"
"Yes!" the chief bowed slightly towards the statue of the evil god and said lightly, "He is the god of the dwarf race, the evil god Leng Mo." ”
Hearing this, Zhao Yan looked at the statue even more attention, and then bowed deeply, and at the same time secretly realized in his heart that this person's feeling looked so kind, as if he exuded a kind of earthling's temperament.
"Okay, it's not too early! I'll pick up the goods in a month!"
After a pause, the people had reached the entrance of the village, and they walked out of the village with the three merchants who were about to leave the village for Manchester City, and bid farewell to the chief.
The chief nodded and smiled at Zhao Yan, Lu Dan blinked suspiciously, and hurriedly stepped forward to remind Zhao Yan, "When the time comes, you will come to get the goods, but you have to bring more people!"
Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, like beating a big drum, secretly sighing for negligence, he thought of everything, but he didn't expect this! 500 pieces of equipment is enough to be felt, but how can he get it back? When the enchantment is finished, how can it be transported to the dwarf tribe!
This problem of common sense is actually negligent!
However, Zhao Yan didn't show it, for fear of affecting the creative passion of the dwarves, so he hurriedly nodded and said, "Okay, I understand." ”
After bidding farewell to the chief and the others, Zhao Yan got on the dwarven merchant's cart, so it was called the cart because Zhao Yan felt that it was very similar to the cart on the earth. But the unique thing is that it is not a human force that pulls the cart in front of it, but the guardian beast of the dwarven merchants.
Three long, blue sideburns, swaying their heads side by side, the dwarven merchants did not need to learn to drive their asses like donkeys, and they ran obediently in the direction the dwarves wished.
Along the way, Zhao Yan talked a lot with the dwarven merchants, and fully understood the situation inside some dwarves and Manchester City. When Zhao Yan tentatively asked about Gu Lisiqiu, the dwarves immediately stood in awe, looking very respectful. At this time, Zhao Yan knew that Gulskiu was the most famous archmage in Manchester City, and he was also the principal of the Dysman's Magic Academy.
It has a long history, and now there are many highly influential figures who have come out of the Dial Man. The identity of the Principal of Guangdi Shimanwen is enough to show what kind of character Gulphy is here.
Zhao Yan's heart moved violently, and he pinched the pink cherry blossom card in his arms, extremely excited. Just imagine, it would be exciting to learn magic from Gulsiqiu!
With full expectation, Zhao Yan's heart has flown towards Manchester City. Grace Autumn's mighty and handsome appearance appeared in his mind, and Zhao Yan secretly thought that he must be a character who looks like a general, majestic, upright, and like the countless generals and marshals in history, he has a personality charm that makes people willing to surrender.
Zhao Yanmei is beautiful, it's really good to find such a master!
As expected, after more than five days' journey, the group arrived at the gate of Manchester City, and after some handover formalities between the dwarven merchants and the soldiers defending the city, the four of them entered the city in a cart.
In Zhao Yan's words, this is a bustling city, and judging from the bluestone paved ground, this is what Zhao Yan has never been in contact with before. Or maybe since he came to this new world, he has been limited to goblins and dwarves, and the house is not the same model as himself at all. Now seeing these high-rise buildings, buildings, and characters coming and going on the street, Zhao Yan even has an urge to cry.
This is the human world!
The dwarven merchant pointed out the location of the Magic Guild to Zhao Yan and went to do his own business, Zhao Yan rushed to the Magic Guild, according to the dwarves, although this Gulphy Autumn is the headmaster of the Emperor Manwen, he is generally not in the school, and the affairs of the school are all managed by the vice principal. No one knows what he does every day, but it's a good idea to find him registered with the Magic Guild, after all, he's the most powerful mage in Manchester City, Mr. Fire Magister.
Although Zhao Yan was looking forward to seeing Gu Lesiqiu soon, as soon as he entered the city, his pace slowed down. It's so novel, it's almost different from anything on earth, just in such a city, in addition to the Western European architecture on the earth, there are also many ancient Eastern buildings, which is simply a mixture of things and things, but this mixture does not seem abrupt at all, as if this is the style that this world has.
Zhao Yan reminded himself that he had to gradually brainwash himself, and if he continued to look at the problem with the cultural concepts on the earth, then everything would make him feel weird. What is that like? In the words of the earth, call the hillbilly into the village.
After wandering around the streets of Manchester City for more than an hour, Zhao Yan finally came to a large blue building, looked up, and saw a pattern of energy elements carved in the center of the pure blue signboard panel, thinking that this was right, and walked in excitedly.
Stepping into the room, what appeared in front of Zhao Yan was a wide hall, the entire hall was empty, only the surrounding walls were inlaid with some large gems of different colors. The gems shimmered faintly at intervals, reflecting the hall in a moment of red and blue. The ground was smooth, and although Zhao Yan didn't understand the building materials of this world, he judged by his feelings that this might be marble.
Looking up, there is a high platform in the innermost part of the hall facing the gate of the magic union, and above the high platform is an orange bar, and in the center of the bar, there is a round transparent sphere, and in the middle of the sphere at the moment, a ball of red fire flashes and flashes, reflecting the fiery red face of the old man behind the sphere.
Zhao Yan looked from a distance, saw that the old man was staring at it intently, his heart was happy, and he hurriedly took a few steps over to look at the old man.
But after just taking a look, Zhao Yan knew that this person must not be Gu Lesiqiu. The old man was bald, with only a few strands of long silver-white hair hanging down, and he was not wearing those high-end robes, just a white shirt and gray trousers with tattered legs.
However, the so-called people can't be disguised, although this person is not Gulski, but he can preside over the hall of the Manchester City Magic Union, plus he is a handful of years, he may at least be a magic teacher!
Zhao Yan leaned over to the bald old man and asked, "May I ask if Senior Gullieqiu is here?"
After finishing speaking, Zhao Yan felt that there was a problem with the grammar, and seeing that the old man did not react, he asked again: "May I ask the Great Demon Guide of Gulliesiqiu......
Hush......
The old man suddenly stretched out his hand and made a still gesture to Zhao Yan.
Zhao Yan was puzzled, but he still listened to the old man's words, stopped making a sound, and stood on the stage and waited quietly.
This is more than half an hour.
Zhao Yan couldn't stand it anymore, and couldn't help but just want to ask, but after thinking about it, it was better not to disturb him, so he walked on stage lightly, wanting to see what the old man was doing.
Like a thief, he gently brushed his steps, trying not to make a sound, slowly stepped up the steps, and turned his head slightly to look at the old man.
The next moment, Zhao Yan was dumbfounded and almost fainted.
