Hearing Allen's inquiry, Hakim touched his beard and said, "Our magic shop, of course, can't be compared to the magic shop in Talasha, the scale is only about one-fifth of Talasha's shop...... Still, it's pretty good. In the past, when you said that you wanted to learn water magic, your father thought about handing over the magic shop to you, and he originally planned to wait until you were thirty years old before giving it to you, but he didn't expect that you would only be sixteen years old, and you would have met his original expectations. ”

Hakim spoke, his eyes darkening suddenly. Allen's magic talent can only be said to be average, and he can't compare with his martial arts roots at all, if Allen practiced martial arts at the beginning, and at the same time had the same adventure as learning magic, I'm afraid he would have reached the seventh order, then he would be the second Pachelaire......

Alan didn't notice Hakim's expression, he only noticed that Hakim said that the magic shop was one-fifth the size of Talasha's magic shop.

'One in five? That's not bad. Alan thought to himself.

It wasn't until he arrived at his own magic shop that Alan felt that something was wrong.

The magic shop covers an area of more than 200 square meters, which is not very big, but it is not small. There are all things that can be used by trainee mages and sixth-order mages, as well as magic arrows and magic blow arrows. There is also a back hall inside, where some inventory of pressing boxes is placed.

In this magic shop is a seventh-order Jedi mage, as well as two third-order apprentices.

Unlike the Talasia Magic Shop, the Talasia shop is crowded with more than 100 customers...... However, there is only one customer in this Lionheart family's magic shop. The guest looked inside, shook his head, and left, passing Alan as he entered.

There are too few customers at this Lionheart Magic Shop!

Alan looked at Hakim suspiciously, and Hakim was also stunned, obviously the business of the magic shop was bleak, which was very unexpected for him.

The mage saw Hakim and Rashid coming, and greeted him from afar. The two apprentices were of relatively low rank, and they both came over to say hello.

After Hakim told Allen's identity, the group met again.

From beginning to end, the seventh-order mage had always looked weak, and the two apprentices were a little uneasy, obviously worried about being blamed for something.

Alan sensed something strange about the situation in the store, and after talking to everyone, he went to check on his own things.

Sea snake skin armor, light armor made of snake skin of a third-order sea snake, has stronger protection than the steel armor of some knights, and it will not affect mental power activities, the disadvantage is that there is no magic array burned on it. The selling price is 1,200 gold coins, which is not a high price.

The next thing Alan looked at was a piece of bamboo armor. The color of this bamboo armor is dark blue, and it has the passive magic of 'Ice Ring' attached to it, and the Ice Ring on it will automatically trigger when the person wearing this suit is hit by a melee warrior. This is a very good piece of bamboo armor, selling for two thousand two.

The third thing Alan looked at was a small round shield, which was a cloth shield, which was very light and suitable for mages. It depicts the light magic of 'Holy Shield Defense', and the defensive power of this cloth shield can even be compared to some large shields after the magic is released. Such a good shield sells for three thousand gold coins, which is also very reasonable.

Alan then looked at a few more things, and the quality of the things was very good, and the prices were very fair.

"There's no reason!'s things aren't bad here, why is the business so ......" Alan looked at the seventh-order mage suspiciously.

The mage shook his head weakly and sighed, "The things are not bad, and the price is not expensive...... But as long as others sell cheaper than us, our business will naturally be worse. ”

"It's cheaper, who would do such a detrimental thing to others?" Alan was stunned. He was a mage himself, so he could naturally see the cost of these tools. According to the selling price, these things make a net profit of 50% at most, and only 30% if it is less. You must know that it takes mana to make magic items, and each mage can only make a few things per day. The alchemy industry makes a large percentage of money, but the actual income is not much. The price of these things in the store can be said to be absolutely fair, at least much fairer than that of the Talasha Magic Shop. If it is cheaper, the income of the magician is probably about the same as that of the owner of the snack bar, which is too cheap.

Seeing that Eren didn't believe it, the seventh-order mage raised his hand and pointed out the door.

Alan followed his finger and saw a newly renovated shop on the opposite street. There was a lot of people coming and going, and there were magicians coming in and out.

Alan's eyes narrowed, and he walked out of his shop. Rashid was not worried about Alan, and was worried that Alan would fight again, so he hurriedly followed. Hakim thought that Alan was still that gentle boy, so he didn't pay much attention to Alan, but when he saw Rashid go out with Alan, he thought about it and went out together.

Eren came to the door of the magic shop. This magic shop is twice the size of Alan's shop, and there is a wide variety of things in the shop, and every mage who visits it has a satisfied smile on their face.

Alan glanced at the stand next to the store, and when he saw the starlight mark of the Doji Star Alliance, he clenched his teeth and thought of the reason!

As soon as Alan entered, he was greeted by a magic apprentice and asked him what he wanted to buy.

Alan walked in on his own, leaving the magic apprentice behind with a gloomy face. He came to the counter and saw a sea serpent armor at a glance. The condition of this sea snake skin armor is similar to that of the Lionheart Shop, and the selling price is only 800 gold coins, which is one-third cheaper than the Lionheart Shop!

At this price, you will definitely not make any money!

Alan then went to look at a few more items and found that they were all sold at cost price......

Alan had already understood that this was a deliberate attempt by the Mage Guild to find fault! They had opened a magic shop across the street from their family's shop, and then sold things in plain books to attract customers......

Rashid and Hakim also saw the price tag of those things, and the two of them were not stupid, and they both instantly understood what the Doji Star Alliance was thinking, and their faces darkened.

However, at this time, the curtain of the back hall door was lifted, and a mage stepped out of it. When he saw Alan, a smile appeared on the man's face: "Hi, Alan. ”

"Ikael!" Alan called out the other man's name with a grim face.

There was a hint of smugness on Ikael's face. He approached Alan and asked with a smile, "Allen, what are you doing here? Do you want to buy anything? The things here are all made by the mages of the Cross Star Alliance who specialize in cultivating gold, and the quality is very good, you can pick two pieces." ”

"Who the is here to buy something from you! What do you mean?"

"What do you mean?" asked Ikael with a smile.

"Ikael...... If you lose the competition to me, you will play this kind of trick, your Doji Alliance will be too inferior!Do you want to lose money and collapse my shop?" Alan said in a deep voice, his eyes full of anger.

Ikal's eyes narrowed when he heard the words 'lost to me', and then he laughed again: "I did lose to you in the last competition, I admit it." But last time I underestimated the enemy, and your absolute strength can't beat me. As for the price of these things...... The Doji Alliance often issues quests in the Adventurers' Guild, and is well taken care of by the mages, and now sells something at a low price, just to repay everyone for their long-term care. ”

"Phew, chop, I opened a store opposite my store, and I sold things at a low price, who can't see this kind of means? It's too despicable to use this method to seize the market!"

"Alan, don't use your thoughts to try out other people's minds...... We in the Doji Alliance just want to repay everyone for their care. For so long, the Doji Alliance has made a lot of money by selling things at high prices, so what's the problem with selling something at a low price at this time? Many stores have the practice of giving back to customers with low-price promotions, and I don't see you talking about them. Now what are you going to do with me?"

Immediately afterward, Ikael's subordinates in the crowd interjected: "Alan, don't talk about the promotions of those shops that don't affect your family's business, and you can say that they affect your family's business here? ”

"It's just that I've never seen anyone like this. ”

"You've made enough money making magic props, and you'll die if you sell our things cheaply? If you don't have time to find materials, I really can't make this sea snake skin armor?"

The people of the Cross Star Alliance were agitated, and some customers also chimed in.

"yes, Alan, you're too unkind. ”

"I really don't understand, the Doji Alliance sells us things cheaply for the sake of us mages who have no money and no power, and it's just in your way?"

"You can't be so selfish. ”

Everyone was talking nonsense, which made Alan angry.

The Doji Alliance lost to Allen last time, and now it is playing such a revenge, and it is still so high-sounding, saying that it wants to give back to the mage?

Every big industry has a chamber of commerce, and the role of the chamber of commerce is to negotiate the price and then let everyone sell according to the price. The price will not be set too high to trick people, nor will it be set too low for merchants to eat. However, the Chamber of Commerce in the magic props industry is a branch of the Cross Star Alliance, which makes it impossible for Alan to find a place to reason.

These mages who buy things are also bastards! They are not fools, how can they not see that the actions of the Cross Star Alliance are aimed at Allen? It's just that they have received a small profit, and they feel that Allen can't fight the Cross Star Alliance, so they just speak with their conscience! A fourth- or fifth-order mage, even if he only makes scrolls to sell, can earn thousands of gold coins a year, what is this no money and no power? A hunter like Jenny who makes magic arrows earns less than 500 gold coins a year, and that is the real lack of money and power! But Jenny has never done anything unconscionable because of poverty! Now these mages are greedy for a little advantage, and they speak with a clear conscience, if they were cheated like Alan, they would never say such things like now!

Alan listened to everyone scolding him, and his face became ugly. Rashid and Hakim on the side also looked angry.

Suddenly, the curtain of the back hall door was lifted again, and a rather graceful man walked out. This man is Kate's father, Hudson, the lord of Knicks City.

Alan couldn't help but look stunned when he saw that it was Hudson......

Hudson walked up to Alan, looked at Alan quietly, and said in a deep voice after a while: "I have already connected with the mermaids of the Niebuhr River, and they are willing to provide materials for the Doji Alliance to make magic items." ”

"Hudson!" Alan said gloomily.

Hudson suddenly pinched his voice into a line, and said in a vindictive way: "The thing of selling things at a reduced price will not be done forever...... As soon as your Lionheart family's magic shop goes down, we will stop such 'activities'. I don't know how long your family can last? The rent and the salaries of the employees add up to a lot of money, right? By the way, you can go to the Chamber of Commerce to sue us, and you can also mobilize the masses. I'm going to see if you can sue us?" I'm waiting to see the day when you'll be reviled and pointed at. ”

Alan clenched his fists as he listened.

However, Hudson suddenly let go of his voice again, frowned, and said, "Allen, we just want to benefit the little mages, I don't know how this can hinder your eyes? ”

Immediately afterwards, the accusations of stumbling around rang out again......

Alan blushed when he heard this, and said coldly: "Grandpa Hakim, big brother, let's go!"

It wasn't until a few of them had left that Ikael walked up to Hudson and whispered, "Is it really okay to do this?"

"What's the problem? I'm not afraid even if his father comes! This little brute dares to kill my son, and I'm going to destroy his shop and ruin his reputation, and then I'll find someone...... The lion is powerful, but the lion cub can't even beat the dog!"
