Chapter 0087 Trading
Tambos clutched the skull of the hunting spider in his hand, excited.
The shaman, as a mysterious being, has a strong foundation built on great consumption. The way it survives and advances is completely different from other adventurer classes.
Ordinary fighters, as long as they are well fed and drunk, and diligent in exercising, can constantly improve themselves. When they go out on adventures, they will at most need to be sharp, and there will be no special requirements.
A priest is simpler than a warrior, and it is enough to pray sincerely.
As for the rest......
Druids demand closeness to nature, barbarians demand wild survival, and thieves demand intelligence and cleverness, all of which are not too demanding.
But wizards are different, just a variety of spell casting materials can mean a lot of money, not to mention the need for a lot of magic items. In addition, it costs money to learn about the Arcane. A lot of things only know the name, but you don't know where to find it.
The Black Forest is a harsh part of the country, but there are still many human settlements because of the unique production that is not found anywhere else. Many specialties are popular with wizards. And Zhou Qingfeng's big bag and small bag, taking out a skull casually is eye-catching.
This is the skull of a hunting spider, and it is a half-demon.
More than fifty years ago, demons broke the barriers of space and forcibly came to the main material realm of the human world, and ran rampant for a while. At that time, human wizards discovered that because of the difference in the laws of the plane, the whole body of the demon was a treasure.
The brutal war caused heavy losses, but many strong men were born in the fierce fighting. Among them emerged a large number of high-level wizards, all of whom benefited from the violent impact of demons.
New knowledge, new materials, new techniques.
Someone was slaughtered by demons, someone was seduced by demons, and someone died from experiments. But there are always some lucky ones who have summed up some experience with demons and become very powerful.
War has always been a great contributor to technological progress.
But the bitter war ended, and the wizards suddenly discovered that the source of information about demons had been cut off. In the name of revenge, they hunted down the demon descendants everywhere, so that the demon descendants were greatly reduced, and they were either cut off from their bloodlines, or they hid among the humans and did not dare to show their faces.
More than 50 years later, Tambos could only appreciate the madness of wizards to obtain demonic materials from his teacher's narration. Now let's not talk about a half-demon skull, even a little bone residue is enough to surprise people.
"The skull of the Hunting Spider can be used to increase the cast speed, and it has a strengthening effect on both enchantment and necromantic arcane." Tambos was excited, and then looked at the big package under Zhou Qingfeng's buttocks, and he was about to faint with happiness.
The apprentice had to force himself a few handfuls to clear his head. He also performed an 'identification technique' on the skull in his hand to confirm its value. He even wanted to cast a 'charm human' on Zhou Qingfeng and force him to obey his words.
But ......, Tambos did not dare.
You can't despise this teenager, and you can't be tempted at will.
Schroeder is dead because of his disrespect for him. Just now, Lukans was already dead because he was too confident. Originally, the Bane Church and the Magru tribe controlled the entire Black Forest, but now they are forced to use the guise of a 'peace agreement'.
The wizard apprentice decided to be honest, he approached Zhou Qingfeng and whispered, "Your Excellency Hugo, I am very interested in your goods. But I have limited financial resources, so I'm afraid I won't be able to buy them all. Maybe I can introduce you to my teacher. ”
Zhou Qingfeng smiled and nodded, but shook his head again, "I believe that your teacher must have stronger financial resources and connections, and can bring me more benefits." But I actually like to associate with people of equal strength. Will your teacher be too strong? ”
Tambos's eyes lit up, and he was even more delighted. He knew what Zhou Qingfeng meant, and he was obviously wary of too strong trade partners. This is normal – the word 'faithfulness' is incomparably precious these days, just because it is so scarce.
"My teacher is a seventh-level alchemist, so he is naturally much stronger than me. As for his credibility, it was widely spread throughout Coldwind City. "Tambos only says 'widely circulated', but he doesn't say good or bad, and the meaning is obvious.
Zhou Qingfeng only nodded, he casually pointed to the package under his buttocks, "Let's estimate the price first, I can accept all kinds of trading methods." Gold, food, slaves, land, property, magic items, and friendships to cherish. ”
Tamboston laughed and took the initiative to reach out to Zhou Qingfeng to shake it, "I will definitely give a fair price, and I will definitely not let His Excellency Hugo suffer." I also have some trusted friends who can also help with sales. ”
For the skull of the hunting spider alone, Tambos gave a price of one hundred and fifty gold coins. That's enough money to buy a village in the Black Forest.
The main thing that Zhou Qingfeng got in the elven prison were the bones of several half-demon creatures, which had been identified and cost more than two thousand gold coins. This amount of money is also an astronomical amount of money for a wizard apprentice, and it is impossible to take it out at all.
After valuing the bones, Tambos' hands were shaking. He has been learning arcane arts for more than ten years with the support of his family, and has seen many good things of great value. But now he bet his family wouldn't have scraped together enough gold to buy the bones.
In addition to the bones, Zhou Qingfeng also got a lot of artworks from the elven prison, mainly statues, paintings, and ornaments. Even a few chandeliers in the prison were removed and transported out by him.
The elves use very beautiful and unique things, and they can be sold for a high price in the human market. It's just that Tambos has been blinded by the bones, and the dazzling elven artwork has only been estimated at a 'low price' of eight hundred gold coins.
"Three thousand five hundred gold coins in total. It's just the harvest of a trip to the Elven Ruins. And now there is a whole city ruin waiting to be discovered. God, we're really going to make a fortune this time. ”
After the wizard apprentice finished valuing, he sighed happily, his head dizzy, and blank.
Zhou Qingfeng smashed his mouth, shook his head slightly, and said, "This is only a small part of the ruins, just a building." If it's really that valuable, it's a nuisance. ”
"Trouble?" Tambos looked up at Zhou Qingfeng, his heart tightened for no reason, followed by great fear, "That's right, it's indeed a big trouble." ”
The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty!
Zhou Qingfeng hates trouble. He wondered if he should do it again and bring in more external investment to take risks together. But he quickly dismissed the idea.
Just looking at the social atmosphere in the Black Forest, you know that there will be no decent people and gentlemen on the side of Cold Wind City. The chaos and disorder of this world are like the end times.
"Now it's time to move quickly, I'm a little worried that the goblins and the people from the Bane Church will call for reinforcements. We must bring them down as soon as possible and take control of the entire Black Forest simply and completely. Otherwise, it's really going to get out of hand. ”
Zhou Qingfeng stared at Tambos with burning eyes, and asked seriously, "You should have a way to leave the Black Forest directly, right?" ”
Tambos gritted his teeth and decided to reveal his hole cards, "I have a flying scroll that can leave the Black Forest from the air and return to Coldwind City. ”
"Can you get us some powerful supplies?" Zhou Qingfeng pointed to the skull of the hunting spider in Tambos's arms, "That is considered a deposit." I want you to keep it as secret as possible, otherwise it's not good for either of us. ”
"Hmm." The wizard apprentice replied heavily, "Give me three days, and I can go and get you some spell scrolls, at least twenty or more." Plus, get some magic potions that will make your men more powerful than beasts. ”
"Deal!" Zhou Qingfeng nodded, he finally had the capital to give the enemy a hearty decisive battle.
