"Well......" Charles held a "Dream Blue" crystal the size of a disposable lighter in his previous life in his hand and carefully observed the sunlight outside the window, "Yes, they are all superb." ”

After he finished speaking, he didn't care about throwing the crystals into the tray on the coffee table in front of him, where there were five more identical crystals.

Then he waved his left hand, "Put it away." ”

Mordred, who was standing to his left in a beautiful little dress, obediently picked up the tray, and then Charles said, "Play with whichever one you like", and then leaned back on the sofa.

The merchant sitting across from him swallowed, and could not help feeling in his heart that this young earl was a very precious thing to himself, and he had so easily given it to his maid.

Then Charles waved his right hand, "Give the money." ”

Aalto took out a velvet bag containing six gold Ores and placed it on the coffee table, and the merchant took the bag with lightning speed. After counting the money in the bag, and finding that the amount exceeded his expectations, his face turned bright.

At this time, a lazy voice came from opposite him, "You don't need me to remind you of the next thing, do you?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" The merchant immediately sat up straight, and said to Charles, who was sitting on the sofa like "Ge You's paralysis", "I will never reveal to outsiders that it is Lord Earl that you are buying crystals. ”

"Well, that's good. Charles nodded with satisfaction, "Don't let the world know about my pocket money, if someone misunderstands that my mentor is behind it, then it will be difficult for the matter to end." Although my mentor won't treat me badly, it's still easy for her to treat some people who don't have a strict mouth. ”

The merchant nodded hurriedly to promise that the secret would not be leaked, and then ran away with the money.

On the edge of Mason's business district is a cluster of hotels for small merchants, with many hotels on the ground floor and guest rooms on the upper floors.

The period after the autumn harvest is the time when Mason City comes to buy the most goods, and after the autumn harvest and before the New Year, it is the only time of the year for the farmers who make up the largest population base, and the merchants can also hire those who are idle to work as laborers at very low prices.

Although Mason City is famous for its porcelain, it is still ordinary pottery that accounts for a large proportion of the total amount of transactions.

After Colin left where Charles lived, he happily returned to the hotel where he was staying.

As is customary, he, like many merchants, came here in late autumn, bought a batch of pottery, and then returned to his hometown to sell it, and then returned home to celebrate the New Year.

It's just that in the past, he could only buy a boatload of pottery back in Mason City, not because he didn't want to buy more, but because his capital was only enough to purchase so much.

But this year there was a sudden turnaround, and in the past few days, through the acquisition and sale of "Blue Dream Crystal", his capital can purchase almost two boats of pottery back.

Sitting at a table in the corner of the hotel, Colin ordered a bowl of wheat porridge with minced meat, thinking about whether to operate it again, and when his capital was enough to buy Mifune pottery, he would go home immediately.

In the eyes of outsiders, Colin was stunned for a long time with a spoon. However, everyone is not surprised, and almost all foreign businessmen who have come to purchase during this period have behaved like this.

When he came back to his senses, he found that there was a burly middle-aged man with long red hair sitting across from the table.

"Neo, you're back?" said Colin.

His small caravan was surrounded by several wolves on the way to Mason City a few days ago, although the guards in the caravan could deal with these magical beasts, but Neo and his caravan members who happened to pass by rushed over without saying a word and stabbed those wolves to death, as skilled as a veteran adventurer.

When he was away from home, many friends and many roads, Colin immediately brought two good barrels of wine over to thank these brave friends and businessmen.

The caravan leader, who called himself Neo, said that several of them used to be adventurers, and after working as a caravan guard for a boss for two or three years, they got tired of the days of licking blood at the tip of the knife, and they bought three carriages and started their own business. Because I don't need to hire another guard, my income this year is not bad.

After everyone drank two barrels of wine together that night, Colin was persuaded by Neo, who agreed to take Neo and them for the next year, and Neo and them to be his bodyguards for free.

Neo, who was eating, saw that Colin came back to his senses, and continued to eat his lunch with a somewhat sullen "um".

"What's wrong?" Colin could see that his mood was not high.

Neo shook his head helplessly, "I told someone yesterday that I would exchange a few first-grade Sea Blues for a special Sky Blue, but the price has increased again today, and it will cost a lot of money." ”

"Did you change it?" asked Colin.

"No, we don't have much cash. "Neo was very frustrated.

Colin said to him, "You hurry up and change, if it's a premium product, I can recommend you a very generous buyer." ”

"What kind of buyer?" Neo wondered.

Colin smiled at this point, "I can't reveal the identity of the buyer. ”

Neo thought for a moment and then made up his mind, "Okay, I'll listen to you. But if this vote can't be made, we will have no money. ”

Colin gave him a reassuring look, "Don't worry, that buyer is very coaxing, if you coax him to be happy, maybe the price will be higher." ”

In the afternoon, Colin led a bitter-faced Neo to the house where Charles and the others lived, just as a businessman-like man left with a smile on his face.

"Don't be so bitter, it will scare the buyer. Colin said a little helplessly.

Neo rubbed his face, trying to soften his expression a bit. He said angrily, "I have calcium oxide tlrhrh, and the price has actually increased, if this ticket can't be done, we can only go out hunting." ”

"Peace of mind. Colin comforted Neo as he rang the doorbell.

Soon, the two of them were taken to the back garden by the butler-like man. They saw a young man with his back to them in a pavilion in the garden, spooning a cake to feed to the maid sitting beside him, while a female knight was sitting on a chair beside the boy drinking tea.

When the butler went over to report, Colin said to Neo, who suddenly felt a sense of peace in his heart, "The people of the whole Northland know that the Maccaden family has always been very kind to their subordinates. ”

The butler departed after the report, and Colin led Neo to the pavilion, "Lord Earl, I introduce you to a very interesting merchant who also has goods of interest to you. ”

"How interesting is he?" asked Charles, nonchalantly.

Colin replied respectfully, "This Neo, he used to be an adventurer, and he has a lot of interesting stories to tell. ”

Charles glanced at Neo, who was standing behind Colin and was stunned like many commoners who saw the great nobles for the first time, and said lightly, "Come and sit down, the more interesting your story, the higher the price I will give you." ”

Colin stealthily kicked Neo, which brought Neo back to his senses in a daze.

After Neo sat down, he panicked and accepted the tea from the shy maid, while from time to time he looked at the female knight who was sitting next to him and only cared about his own tea.

After a few polite words, Neo entered the storytelling mode, "The youngest guy in our caravan, he can often pick up all kinds of beautiful women......"

Charles glanced at the evil god Alto sitting next to him, if she hadn't been able to beat the guy in front of her, and she wasn't a bad person, he would have told her to cut down the guy in front of her who was arranging herself in front of her.
