Chapter 81 Acquisition of Goods

Arslen came to the town of the Terran with three hundred gold coins, and he first found Baron Cole.

Baron Cole has been on a good mood lately because he has been promoted. Thanks to the Earth Bear Skin he had purchased from Arslen, he gave it to the governor of the province, gaining the governor's favor, so that although he was still a baron, his domain was expanded to two towns. This means that his income has doubled.

The only thing that made him unhappy was that the damned orc profiteer actually had two earth bear skins in his hands, and the other one was sold to his nemesis, Baron Nelson. I thought I could finally overshadow Nelson, but unexpectedly, Nelson also gave the Earth Bearskin to the Governor, and also obtained the territory rights of the two towns.

Therefore, when he saw Arslen again, Baron Cole did not give him a good face.

"Hmph, isn't this Arslen, what are you doing here?"

"Hehe, I'm here to congratulate Master Cole on his accession to the knighthood, you look good lately. Arslen didn't care about Cole's stinky face, anyway, if the other party wanted to get the beasts' livestock, furs and various specialties, he had to ask for himself. Looking at the surrounding area, there is no one more smuggler than him.

"Finally, I didn't get angry with you, I said Arslen, what do I do to you? Not only are you ungrateful, but you're still making deals with that Nelson bastard behind my back? Hmph, that bastard I know very well, he's a miser, didn't he owe you money?"

Arslen was stunned for a moment, and smiled wryly: "I'm really right, Baron Nelson still owes me a hundred gold coins! No, I'm only going to do business with you when I come here this time." ”

Hearing that Alslen was owed money by Nelson, Baron Cole immediately felt better. Hehe, you are owed by Nelson, you just wait to ask for it back!

"What are you going to buy this time, what are you going to pay the bill with?"

"It's still the same as before, weapons, ale and grain, the more the better. Especially weapons, I need a lot of them. Arslen deliberately took out his money bag and poured the three hundred gold coins inside onto the wooden table, making a wonderful noise.

Baron Cole's eyes immediately looked greedily over him, and he hated to snatch it for himself. But he was finally quite sensible, and knew that he couldn't fish with all his might, so he said: "The others are easy to say, how many do you want, but this weapon...... You also know that the kingdom is very tightly controlled, and I don't dare to go too far!"

"And how much can you give me?"

"How about fifty double-sided axes, fifty maces, and three hundred iron spears, just like last time?"

Shaking his head, Arslen said, "It's still too little, I need more." ”

"Then you're embarrassed for me, Arslen, I didn't mean to lie to you, I really can't do any more. If you don't believe it, even if you go to Nelson, he will give you so much at best. ”

Arslen ignored Baron Cole's embarrassed expression, and said to himself, "Baron Cole, how does that earth bear meat I gave you last time taste?"

Baron Cole's eyes lit up immediately, and he asked with a little excitement: "Do you still have ground bear meat there?" sell it to me, the more the better, and I will give you the best price." ”

For the arrogant and lascivious nobles of the human race, even thousands of gold coins are not as good as the pleasure that a small piece of earth bear meat can bring them. Last time, Alslen sold him a few hundred catties, and he secretly sent someone to the royal city to sell it, and he actually obtained dozens of times and nearly a hundred times the profit. And the aristocratic gentlemen who bought the meat of the earth bear asked one by one, wanting more.

"I'm sorry Baron Cole, but I don't have any more Earth Bear meat on my hands. Arslen spread his hands and said, "But the barbarian who made the deal with me still has a lot of them. ”

"Then what are you waiting for, go and trade with him?" Baron Cole asked, confused.

"But the barbarian is very difficult to speak, and he doesn't want anything else, just weapons. ”

Cole was silent for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I can give you three times as many weapons, but you have to promise not to sell Earth Bear meat to Nelson, otherwise our deal will be canceled." ”

The reason why he was so bold was that the kingdom's army had recently been updating their weapons, with a lot of obsolete double-sided axes, maces, and even two-handed broadswords. When the time comes, you should be able to buy the blacksmith workshop in charge of recycling, and you should be able to get it at an extremely low price. It's a risk, but it's worth the risk compared to the benefits you can get.

"Haha, Baron Cole, it's a pleasure to do business with you, so we'll make up our minds, and I'll give you the rest of the money when I get back from the Tulum Wasteland. Arslen smiled, after this trip, he was going to make a fortune again. You can even make up for your losses in one fell swoop.

Having agreed on a time for the deal, and coming out of Baron Cole, Arslen and his men began to go in and out of the town's shops, buying large quantities of ale, clothing, pottery, and grain.

When he was done and was about to go back to his residence to rest, he suddenly saw a stall selling women's jewelry on the street, and thought of the delicate girl Jinba Zhuoma beside Zhangxiong Gyatso. He stopped, picked and chosen, and bought a few ornaments, ready to curry favor with the woman of Xiangxiong Gyatso.

The other ornaments were very cheap, only a few silver coins, but there was only one necklace, and the owner of the shop actually asked for a gold coin.

"You black-hearted fellow, don't you know what to do?" Alslen couldn't help but scold.

The old woman who was selling was not angry, and smiled at the big customer: "This orc master, the jewelry on the necklace you are holding is not an ordinary product, but a broken magic crystal! Although it has been broken and cannot be used by alchemists, it is extremely rare after all, and it is already the best price for you to ask for a gold coin." ”

When Arslen heard this, he immediately remembered the conversation he had with Zhangxiong Gyatso. At that time, Zhangzhung Gyatso asked him to help him get some magic crystals if he could.

It's just that the magic crystal is too rare and expensive, and even Alslen has rarely seen it, so he didn't agree. Now there is a magic crystal in front of me, although it is broken, but who knows if Zhangxiong Gyatso will need it too?

So although he was in pain, he still took out a gold coin and bought the necklace. He casually asked, "Do you have any jewelry made of magic crystal shards here?"

"Master Orc, there are no more magic crystal jewelry, but I still have a lot of broken magic crystal in my hand, which my man bought from the alchemist and prepared to make his own jewelry. I can give you a little more if you want. ”

The old woman was smiling, but she was actually secretly scolding the orc for being stupid. Although the magic crystal fragment is beautiful, it has been broken after all, and it is worthless to the alchemists, and it is sold to her man like a waste.

Arslen's eyes lit up: "Okay, you get it for me, as long as the price is right, I want it all!"
