Chapter 86: Selling and Buying (I)

"Why do you keep this thing for?" the owner of the grocery store picked up a small pendant with a straw rope in his tone, and his tone was puzzled, "Why don't you throw it away?" Or is it a token of love given to you by some lovely person? ”

This pendant is carved from the teeth of a ferocious boar, but the material used is not the pair of sharp fangs that are most prominent in the ferocious boar, but is made of the molars in the pig's mouth, which makes the pendant very ungraded, and the surface is slightly yellowed.

The pendant looks like a human child or a goblin. Of course, it could be a dwarf, or a halfling, or something. In short, its workmanship is so crude, and it is clear that the maker has no snidic carving and art skills.

This thing was received by Barrett from an adventurer for ten silver coins before he left the Bay of Pigs. The adventurer's party had hunted a huge ferocious boar in the Misty Forest, and when the adventurer saw that no one wanted its huge and useless molars, he collected them all to carve and relieve boredom in his spare time.

Coincidentally, Barrett had tasted the meat of the ferocious boar, and at the 'Fortune, Fortune' tavern, Chef Donnie stewed the meat for three whole days, but the meat was still very tough.

Barrett bought the pendant in the hope that it would be able to improve his attributes such as perception, agility, and strength, just like the statue he picked up from the Misty Forest, but unfortunately, his investment failed.

He spent a long time trying to identify this pendant, but the [Task Log] only showed a short sentence:

[Pig tooth pendant: The boring work carved by a bored person is not much stronger than a child's graffiti, you can use it to ......]

What are you doing with it? Maybe the [Mission Log] won't even find a use for it.

"I got this thing by accident during an adventure. Barrett didn't want to say it was bought, "in the lair of an unknown creature." In the adventurer's kennel, "For ten silver coins, it's yours." He didn't dare to ask for too much, "This is carved from the ivory of a ferocious boar, although the workmanship is not exquisite, but this material is not very common." ”

"Ten silver coins? Ha, you're kidding, I'm too much for ten copper coins. Dave scoffed, "Three copper coins, or you can keep them for yourself." ”

Like you said, what am I keeping for? Useless things are naturally going to be sold to stores, that's common sense.

"Hey, I said, this thing is carved from the ivory of a ferocious boar. "Is it worth a few pieces of rye bread? or is it the kind of rye bread that is baked without bee eggs?" "Rye bread without eggs, the coarse fibre makes you feel like you're chewing bricks.

"Except for the pair of unusually sharp fangs and a tough fur, the rest of this creature is garbage, garbage!" Dave emphasized, "including its flesh, which cannot be stewed badly, and has a fishy smell that cannot be concealed, and tastes worse than a domestic pig." Dave looked at it with disdain.

"That's how you don't know how to cook it!" Barrett said Chef Donnie's classic quote, but it didn't help the deal at hand.

In the end, Dave was only willing to give out ten copper coins for this pendant, or for the sake of their years of cooperation.

Barrett didn't know what kind of thing provided the attributes, and the carving of the female bust was also very rough, and the face had no facial features, and if it wasn't for the long and superficial hair, you wouldn't even know if it was male or female. At least the pig's tooth pendant can still clearly see the facial features, but the nose and eyes are almost at the same level......

However, the female bust can provide 2 perception points and a task worth 50 soul energy, and this pig's tooth pendant is not much stronger than garbage.

As for the 'Song of Saran' and 'Eve's Little Tombstone', since they themselves are made by a mage, Barrett takes it for granted, regardless of their attributes.

What's the pattern in this? He didn't know why.

The deal continued, and as soon as Dave gave the price for most of the items, Barrett agreed. Because those prices are conventional, such as frost grass, such as the forelegs of frost spiders, and winter wolf furs, magic sacs and so on.

These things can be a little difficult to obtain, but they are not rare in themselves. In front of the huge group of adventurers, the amount of harvest is not small, so the price is generally fixed, and even if it fluctuates, it can't change much. Unless, run into some fools who don't have bad money, or something unexpected happens in the whole adventure area......

"What's the liquid in the bottle?" Dave put on a pair of delicate deerskin gloves, picked up two bottles of the sky blue liquid from the pile of items, and looked closely at it with his magnifying glass, "It seems to be the blood of something, the sky blue blood must belong to some kind of cold creature." No, the blood of the winter wolf is not so thick, nor is it so cold. If this bottle of liquid is not specially made, I am afraid that even in the spatial ring, it will inevitably be frozen and shattered. ”

"The blood of frostworms. "You may not know, but this blood is magical, and it may have some special effects. "That's what Old Will told him.

"Frost worms, heh, these creatures are not easy to catch. Dave looked at Barrett in amazement, "How did you resist the frost worm's peculiar trill, and the biting cold that emanates from its body? And its spitting attack is much stronger than the winter wolf's, and the range is still very wide, you won't be the only one in the whole team who survived, Mr. 'Feeder'." ”

Barrett ignored Dave's teasing, "There's a wandering mage on the team, so, you know." He explained, but didn't say much.

Dave nodded, and tacitly didn't ask more.

"By the way, you have to calculate the price of this kind of bottle for me, because it is specially made, and you just said it yourself, you can't cheat on it. Barrett had just learned that the glass bottle, which had a very different feel, was actually specially made, and that Old Will hadn't told him when he handed it to him and the half-elves to collect blood.

"I'll give you a complete set for free in a moment. Dave said angrily, "'Special' doesn't mean it's worth enough, Master Ian only needs to use a cup of tea to make thousands of sets." ”

"Thousands of sets? In such a short period of time? You're not kidding. Barrett was a little surprised, "You don't plant the seeds so quickly." ”

Dave shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know much about the specifics. 'Magical things are inherently magical, and alchemy is the most magical part of magic,' are the words of Master Ian. ”

Before the grocer gave the price, the grocer took out a velvet-padded box and carefully placed two vials of frostworm blood into it, but Barrett didn't object.

"I've had the pleasure of watching His Excellency Master Ian perform alchemy, and to be honest, I didn't see anything. "He just waved his hand, and boxes and boxes of glassware automatically flew onto the huge circle he used to, and then the circle just lit up, and the ordinary glassware became even tougher, not shattered even if thrown on the ground, and could hold a lot of strange things." ”

"Since it's not valuable, give me a few more. Barrett gave Dave a smile that he thought was charming.

Dave was about to say no, but Barrett quickly interrupted, "Hey, that's what you said, just now. Just because it's special doesn't mean it's worth a lot of money,' is what you say. ”

"You have a good memory. Dave didn't refuse this time, "Take you two bottles and give you two sets of utensils, each set of 12 bottles, with different specifications and shapes, I believe you should be able to use them in your subsequent adventures." ”

"What about the blood of the frostworm in the bottle?" Barrett asked for the price, and he didn't know how much to sell without losing money.

Dave thought for a moment, "You shouldn't expect too much, frostworms are not easy to catch, but if you catch one, you can collect enough blood." Let's start with a bottle of ten gold coins, after all, how much this thing is worth and how much magic it contains, I still have to ask Master Ian. If the value is higher than 10 coins, the subsequent price difference will be made up to you the next time you come over, if it is not worth 10 gold coins, the extra part will be considered as if you have earned it. ”

Barry nodded and agreed to the transaction, feeling sorry for the blood that had been wasted on the ground. If only I could catch another frost bug! This great bug turned into a moving mint in Barrett's eyes. Unfortunately, without the help of the mage, this could not have been achieved.

Chance to find a mage and do it again?, Barrett stroked the stubble on his chin, thinking about it in his mind.
