CHAPTER XXXIX
Palin has never been influenced by Chinese culture, and of course he will not have such thoughts as Sui Xiong. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoBut he is a devout believer, and he will honestly obey the demands of his own gods, even if they do not meet his wishes.
So after the persuasion failed, he still went to the buddy to ask for the price, and was ready to buy the delicate enchanted long dagger.
However, after asking the price, even if the nerves were as big as Sui Xiong, he couldn't help but feel the pain in his tentacles.
"This 'Ice Soul' is worth 70,000 gold coins. The weapon shop guy said lightly.
Parin's eyes widened, even if he was a little mentally prepared, he was stunned by the appalling high price.
After a while, he couldn't help but ask: "It's just an enchanted long dagger, is it so expensive? I've also seen high-end goods, and tens of thousands of gold coins are up to the sky!"
The guy sneered and glanced at him, didn't even bother to explain, just snorted disdainfully with his nose, and went to wipe a long knife.
This kind of dirt bun that has never been seen on the market is like a skeleton in the ash forest, and it is endless. The store manager instructed that people who can't see the true mystery of the "Ice Soul" will not sell this weapon to him if they have money!
Parin was bored, and had the heart to ask a few more questions, but he was too embarrassed to lick his face and come up, so he walked out of the weapon shop unhappily, intending to go to the hotel to stay overnight.
But he had only walked a few steps when he was stopped by a small but well-dressed child next to him.
"Wise mage, do you want to buy something good? Please be sure to visit the 'Good Eye' grocery store!"
Look at the child's grinning expression and skillful sales style, it is clear that he is waiting outside the weapon shop, specifically to sell to the down-and-out adventurers who have been hurt by their hearts.
"This mage, you didn't come to our Dragon Roar Town often before, did you?" the child said very familiarly, "If you are familiar with Dragon Roar Town, you will definitely not go to the black shop of the 'Dragon Slayer Treasure Knife'!"
Parin immediately nodded his head repeatedly, feeling that the kid had a point. An enchanted long dagger actually costs 70,000 gold coins, why don't they grab it!
...... No, it's not as a profiteer to make money quickly! 70,000 gold coins, the orc wolf cavalry group has robbed for five years, and it has only saved 50,000 gold coins!
In the past few days, in order to prepare for the Pioneer Village, they have already entered the treasure house of the Ruhr again.
Rod's hands were no less than Wren's, and it didn't take much effort to dismantle all the traps along the way - in fact, although those traps were very dangerous and powerful, the type was quite old and outdated, and Rhodes even repackaged a few of the better ones and sold them as antiques in the Thieves' Guild's grocery store, and the price was not low, and one had already been sold in the past few days.
Ruhl's treasure vault contains a total of 50,000 gold coins, and some of the remaining antiques and magical items are either clearly marked and difficult to get rid of, or they are very dangerous and not to sell- The former is represented by a set of exquisite jewelry, on which the light-winged angel badge symbolizing the royal family of the Holy Angel Kingdom makes Rhodes sweat coldly, especially when he carefully counts the number of angel wings on the badge, even his face is white, and the latter is represented by a very hard finger bone, swirling with black magical energy, Satan was so frightened that he took several steps back after seeing this, and almost hit his head on the stone wall and broke his blood.
Well, the former is the collection of the royal family of one of the most radical and aggressive kingdoms in the world today, and belongs to a prince within three generations, while the latter is the soul box of an evil lich that will be used as a coordinate to return to the world after being killed.
If the former is exposed, the Holy Angel Kingdom will definitely send a master to the four towns in the northwest, not only to reclaim this set of jewelry, but also to kill the entire family of the despicable merchant who has tarnished the honor of the great royal family;
Although the jewel and the soul box were far above 50,000 gold coins in terms of value, as long as they weren't crazy, no one would think of selling them - of course, even if the seller went crazy, they had to find a buyer who was also crazy and not afraid of death!
Although Palin came from a merchant family, he was far from wealthy. In his opinion, 50,000 gold coins is already a dizzying amount of money, but the damn "Dragon Slayer Knife" weapon store actually priced an enchanted long dagger for 70,000 yuan, and also had a posture of "If you don't buy it, it's your loss, Lao Tzu is not rare", it really made him feel a fire in his heart.
At this moment, listening to the kid's accusations against this black shop, he suddenly felt that he had met a bosom friend, and he kept agreeing.
"That black shop actually relies on a few high-quality enchanted weapons to attract people, such as 'Ice Soul' and 'Elder Tree'...... But the prices are inflated, at least several times more expensive. "The kid is obviously an expert too, or at least the person who taught him these words is an expert," as for the 'Dragon Slayer Knife' that hung on the pillar in the center of the shop...... Haha, that's a joke! A person who can use that knife well, what can't he use to slay a dragon? Or in other words, a strong person who can slay a dragon, where will he look down on that broken knife!"
Parin, who had already heard similar comments from Sui Xiong, grew his mouth, and finally understood why his majesty was disdainful of the dragon slaying treasure knife, but was a little interested in the long dagger.
The vision of a god is really not comparable to that of a mere mortal mage!
"By the way, you know what? There's a story behind the knife. The child grinned and said, "Thirty years ago, the former mayor of this town was lucky enough to make a windfall. At that time, there was a famous cat beauty in the Orc Empire east of the Great Gobi, and the beauty of singing and dancing was unparalleled in the world. He spent a lot of money on a beautiful gem and wanted to win the hearts of the beautiful people with it—what do you think of that idea?"
Parin thought for a moment and shook his head: "It's not very reliable." ”
"Yes, it's not reliable at all! As a result, before he reached the Orc Empire, he was overtaken by the Extreme Cold Tyrant on the Gobi Desert. At that time, he showed incredible courage and fought the dragon for this gem......"
"Dead?" asked Parin.
"Nope. Killing this fool would have detrimental to the dragon's majesty, so the dragon sent him all the way back to the village, where he hung himself on a tree with a long strip of cloth that read, 'This is the bravest pervert I have ever seen, and the weakest.'" ”
Parin laughed, laughing at the mayor's inadequacy and amused by the dragon's humor.
"After being rescued, the mayor of the town found someone to build this 'Dragon Slaying Knife', and claimed that as long as he was willing to go into the mountain to slay the dragon, he would give the knife away. As you can see, thirty years later, the mayor has changed two terms, and the knife is still hanging there. ”
The two talked and laughed, and after a while, they came to the "Good Eyesight" grocery store. This grocery store is not small, and looking at the walls and façade, it should have a long history, and it can be called an old store.
Soth Sr. once taught Parin that there were only two options to buy in an unfamiliar place: either a well-known big store or a long-established store. The former is sure that the road is wide and the supply is sufficient, and the latter mostly pays attention to credibility and is worthy of cooperation.
As soon as he entered the door, the child smiled and shouted, "Ah Xue, Ah Xue, I'm here for you again! No carrots in my vegetable soup tonight!"
"Children are not allowed to be picky eaters, they will not grow tall!" said a middle-aged woman who walked out of the inner room, her facial features were also upright, thinking that she would probably be a beauty when she was young. It's just that the body is a little too fat, and the height is a little too tall, and it is really tiger and tiger when he walks, so that the floor under his feet is faintly moaning.
After three steps and two steps, the landlady called "Ah Xue" came to Palin, grabbed the child, picked it up and put it aside like a chicken, and then said to Parin with a smile: "This guest, our 'Good Eyesight' grocery store is an old store that has been in business for almost forty years, specializing in selling all kinds of groceries, and there are many things left by senior adventurers, which can be called cheap and good. You will not be disappointed when you come to visit us!"
Parin shrank a little in fear, although this aunt is just an ordinary person, she is really extraordinary. Especially the physical gap between the two sides is so huge, which makes him very insecure.
But he immediately reacted - he is a spellcaster! a mage! even among adventurers, he is considered a high-end, why should he be afraid of an ordinary person!
So he straightened up again, wanting to show his momentum as a mage. However, the height of the dwarf is already short, and the female boss named "Ah Xue" is tall among human beings, and the height difference is nearly double, making his efforts meaningless.
Boss Xue didn't care about the little mage's attitude, she said with a smile, "This guest, what do you want to buy?"
“...... Actually, I just looked at it casually, and I didn't really want to buy anything. ”
"I see, you've really come to the right place—we have a product in our store, you must be interested!" Boss Axue laughed, dragging a large box almost as tall as Parin from behind the counter, and the box was littered with all kinds of equipment.
"These were bought from adventurers, and none of them were inspected or identified. There should be a lot of garbage in it, but there are certainly good things that haven't been discovered. Now, as long as you have ten gold coins, you can take any one of them with you. Boss A Xue said with a smile, "This is the store's special product 'picking up', whether it is a profit or a loss, it all depends on eyesight." However, everyone can only choose one. ”
Parin was stunned for a moment, looked at the messy box of equipment, frowned and asked, "Can I use identification spells?"
"Of course not! The so-called leakage is to test the school's eyesight. Boss Xue's answer was not unexpected, "If you use spells to identify, it will be meaningless!"
"From a pile of inconspicuous things, select the real value, the happiness and satisfaction in it, is the real treasure!"
The chubby aunt smiled very happily, and her eyes flashed with a bright light that ordinary businessmen would never have.
