677. Transactions

A large number of magic airships are close to the airport terminal of Bena City every day, and all regions of Bena Province have been a little restless recently, and the House of Representatives of Bena Province has frequently mobilized the armies of the lords of various regions to try to suppress the riots in various regions, which also makes the frequent transfer of materials in various places, and it is very difficult to walk by land in winter, although the cost of magic airship transportation at the airport is very high, but it is also more secure than the land route, and it is also more efficient.

In addition, before the arrival of spring every year, a large number of supplies will be brought in from the south from the southern provinces, which will keep the airport terminal in Bena City running at full capacity.

When Surdak's magic airship arrived in Bena City, the airport dock was even busier, and there was a row of airships waiting to enter the airport.

As the provincial capital of the province of Bena, Bena City is not only the political and commercial center of the province, but also has a large number of garrisons around the city of Bena, and the capitals of other provinces of the Grimm Empire are similar, with a large number of troops stationed here.

There are many garrisons outside the city of Bena, and there are some temporary reception tasks of the military station, Surdak with the requisition order in his hand, the cavalry battalion can live in the station, so there is no need to find another place to live, the conditions of the station can only be said to be a little better than the tent, the biggest advantage is to provide two meals a day and hot water, bathing is no problem, and there is a large playground and horse ring in the station.

Surdak knew that once he reported to the legion on the side of the Marquis of Luthor, the cavalry battalion would be incorporated into the legion, and I was afraid that it would be difficult to have leisure and freedom, so a few personal matters on the side of Bena City must be completed first.

Just after noon, Andrew stayed in the cavalry camp, and Surdak hired a magic caravan with Samira, Selena, and Signa outside the barracks to drive unhindered into the city of Bena.

Samira had been to the city of Bena once, but had little time to admire the bustling city.

Although she was only passing through Bednar City this time, the mood of entering the city in the magic caravan was completely different from the last time, she casually looked at the shops on both sides of the street, the wide street was crowded with horse-drawn carriages, and a group of knights from the guard battalion wore full armor and walked slowly down the street to maintain order on the street.

After entering the city, the caravan follows the boulevard for seven blocks and turns at the intersection in front of it towards the Liberty Magic Market, located in the Enchanted District.

Selena and Signa sat side by side, they were still a little nervous when the magic caravan first drove into Bena City, although there were many magicians in Bena City, but they found that the magicians on the street were in a hurry, and after they came out of the shop, they rarely looked around, and basically quickly got into the magic caravan and drove away from the shop quickly.

Signa had the courage to push the window open and let the outside air blow in.

Selena lifted the curtains and looked out onto the long street, which was full of pedestrians.

……

The province of Bednar is located in the middle of the Grimm Empire, and it is considered early spring in March.

The street trees in the streets of Bena City have already sprouted new green shoots, and in the afternoons of the city, women have dared to walk the streets in long knitted dresses with open collars, and some young girls dare to show their arms and calves like pink white lotus roots, and walk together on the long streets.

Selena hugged Signa and looked at the women on the street with envy, no one dared to dress like this in Vol Village.

The magic caravan drove into the edge of the free magic market, it was very lively, the magic caravan could only move forward at a very slow speed, there were some food stalls on the side of the road wafting with the fragrance, the Bena people liked to eat fried bagels and chips, the food at the food stalls on the side of the market was very cheap, three copper plates could buy an oil cake bigger than Signa's face, and the boiling oil pan was almost non-stop frying food.

People huddled together and handed out copper plates in the palms of their hands.

There are also small stalls with large iron pots with round bellies, in which the marinated meat gravy exudes a rich aroma, and pieces of crispy bone-in lamb are piled up inside. Meat is more expensive here, and you can buy a full plate with a silver coin.

Place the crispy lamb on a plate, drizzle with a spoonful of fragrant gravy, sprinkle some leek leaves, and scoop a spoonful of soft chickpeas.

Finally, the stall owner was able to bring two crispy scones from the oven.

Surdak took Signa off the magic caravan, and then took everyone to buy two large plates of bone-in mutton at the stall in the corner, and went to another stall to buy a fried fish, so that everyone could fill their stomachs first, and after eating, he bought three cups of sweet and sour pomegranate juice for Signa and Samira Selena next to the pomegranate stall, and then took the three girls into the bustling free magic market.

The Free Magic Market is located in a square, and almost all sides of this street are lined with some magic shops, and there are hundreds of stalls in the whole square.

Several butcher stalls were almost lined up, and the other stalls were almost filled with all kinds of low-level demonic beast fresh meat, except for a few air-dried mola fish hanging from Shande's stall, there was almost nothing on the meat table.

Most of the people in charge of selling the meat are housekeepers and cooks, who pass by Shande's stall and always ask Shande: "Hasn't the goods arrived yet?" ”

Shande lay on the wicker chair like a salted fish, and shook his head with a look of dismay.

Surdak and Sander agreed to send fresh meat to Bena City every month through a magic airship, and last month was okay, a whole box of salamander meat arrived as scheduled, although Sander was going to sell some in limited quantities every day.

Even so, it was sold out after only half a month.

But since the second month, there has been no news from the Hylanza side, and until March, Sander still hasn't received the goods from the city of Hylandsa, and Sander has been thinking about it for the past few days, if there is no news, he will buy a ticket and fly to the city of Hylanza to have a look over there.

"O Shande! If you want me to say you can put some other monster meat or whatever, whatever you do is better than lying around like this! The stall owner of the neighbor's shop said very familiarly.

Shander rubbed his somewhat stiff cheeks with both hands and said, "I'll wait." ”

The owner of a stall selling animal bones diagonally opposite the stall said with a smile: "Shande, if you want me to say, you see that your place is empty, or you can borrow me to put some animal bones, and I will share your stall fee if you make money......."

"That's not good, I'm a beast meat monopoly here, if I put animal bones on the table, people will think I'll change careers!" Shander said lazily turning over.

Several stall owners chatted without a word, and saw Brunei, the manager of the Rossi Leather Merchant Company, standing in the narrow aisle, and the transaction between Surdak and the Rossi Leather Merchant Company in Bednar City was also in charge of Sander, who had already made a deal with the Brunei manager, but the transaction that was supposed to be last month had been delayed until the beginning of this month, and there was no news, so the Brunei manager seemed a little anxious.

He walked up to the butcher's stall and asked anxiously, "Shande, is there any news from Baron Surdak?" ”

"Not yet...... Brunei manager, if there is no news in the next few days, I will go to the city of Highlandsa. Seeing that the Brunei manager had come to the door in person, Shande had to sit up from the rattan chair and respond very formally.

The Brunei manager wiped his smooth forehead with a handkerchief, and although it was still a little cold, he felt a trace of cold sweat on his forehead.

"If you have news, remember to let me know!" The Brunei manager said only that, then waved his hand at Shande, and was about to leave.

Shande glanced up at the Brunei manager, but saw a young man dressed as a nobleman next to the Brunei manager with a gloomy face: "Could it be that Baron Surdak drew a big pie for us, and the follow-up transaction is not a shadow at all, hum!" ”

The manager of Brunei just signed an order for salamander leather armor, and the stock of salamander skins in the comptoir is only enough to complete half of the order, and he is also very anxious and impatient when he sees that the delivery date is approaching, but the comptoir needs such a source of high-grade leather, and he is worried that it will be heard by Sander and spread to the ears of Baron Surdak, so he does not dare to be like Harvey. Gophilo spoke casually, and only said some of the information he knew: "Young Master Harvey, maybe Baron Surdak is being held back by something, I heard that the Luther family's legions have been frequently transferred recently, could it have something to do with this?" ”

Harvey. Gophilo squinted his eyes, thinking that he had not been able to get any definite news from Beatrice when he saw her a few days ago, so he complained very unceremoniously to the Brunei manager:

"That is, the brainless Beatrice is willing to believe him! Say that five salamander leathers a month are out of stock in the third month......"

The two talked while walking, and they didn't deliberately lower the sound of conversation.

There were a lot of people in the free magic market, and the two of them talked as they walked, and they didn't pay too much attention to the pedestrians around them.

"I'm sorry, it's a bit late this time, I have been leading troops to clear the bandit group in the desert area last month, and I couldn't deliver fresh meat and leather in time."

I heard someone say such a sentence not far away, and the voice was somewhat familiar.

The Brunei manager hurriedly raised his head, and saw Surdak standing calmly in front of the stall in front of him, holding a five or six-year-old girl in his hand, the little girl was holding a glass of pomegranate juice in her hand, and a pair of big black and shiny eyes looked at her.

The Brunei manager opened his mouth and watched Baron Surdak come over step by step. Gophilo kicked it away.

Unlucky Crow's Beak......

"Baron Surdak, are you here...... Oh! This is my responsibility. The Brunei manager hurriedly stepped forward and explained to Surdak.

Surdak glanced at Harvey, who looked embarrassed, and said to the Brunei manager: "This time I have the opportunity to come to Bena City, so I will bring the salamander skin directly." ”

The Brunei manager hurriedly said respectfully: "Look at what you said, I know that you must have been a little busy recently, and you shouldn't have been so eager, but we signed a contract for the supply and marketing of leather armor substrates last month, and it seems that the delivery date is approaching." ”

There are a lot of people in the magic market, and Surdak and the Brunei manager are standing in the middle of the road and talking, which will block the way of others.

Surdak then dragged the Brunei manager back to his butcher's shop in Sander.

When Shander saw Surdak suddenly appear, he also jumped up from the wicker chair at once, and welcomed several people to the wooden house where the butcher shop was a little aggrieved.

Surdak didn't care much either, and asked the Brunei manager and Harvey. Gophilo sat down on the bench.

The little girl, on the other hand, looked curiously at the dried Mora fish hanging from the iron hook, and her face was full of surprise.

Surdak waved his hand for Shander to sit down as well, and asked, "Last transaction settlement, Brunei manager, do you plan to use magic crystals or gold coins?" ”

"Gold coins, the value of the magic crystal has been depreciating very quickly recently." Brunei took out a bag of gold coins that had been prepared long ago and handed it to Surdak.

Surdak then pulled out a magic chest from his magic belt bag and opened the lid of the box, revealing five completely peeled salamander skins.

As the manager of the Rossi Leather Company, it is impossible for Brunei to know about the Gophilo family.

See that Surdak didn't care about Harvey. The words that Gophilo just said successfully completed the transaction, and the Brunei manager's hanging heart was finally put down.

Shande on the side was busy in the cramped wooden house, although this wooden house was small, but it was very complete, and made a few cups of black tea for everyone, before sitting down happily, but he didn't ask about the salamander ingredients.

After Surdak finished counting the gold coins, he said again: "By the way, Brunei manager, did Rossi Commercial Bank buy low-grade Warcraft leather?" ”

"Low-grade Warcraft leather? What kind of attributes? Brunei was slightly stunned and asked casually.

After thinking about it, I was relieved, since people can hunt salamanders stably, they can naturally hunt some primary demonic beasts.

"Wind wolfskin." Surdak said.

The Brunei manager replied without thinking about it: "This kind of can, but the leather of this low-level Warcraft cannot be used to make magic pattern construction, and can only be used on ordinary leather armor and magic pattern paper, so the price is very low, and the profit is also very thin, this kind of leather can only be formed in a certain amount before it is profitable." ”

"I happen to have some ...... in my hand," Surdak smiled, and as he spoke, he pulled out a normal wooden box from his magic fanny pack and placed it on the table.

Surdak casually lifted the wooden cover, and it was stuffed with wind wolf skins that had not even had time to clean up the bloodstains.

The Brunei manager was a little dumbfounded, even if it was a low-level Warcraft leather, it should at least be packed in the Demon Sealing Box.

Probably seeing the expression on the face of the Brunei manager, Surdak smiled and said: "There are more wind wolves than expected, and there are not enough demon sealing boxes, so they can only be packed into ordinary wooden boxes." ”

The Brunei manager looked up at Surdak in confusion.

"I have about fifty more boxes of wooden boxes like this full of wind wolf skins......"

The Brunei manager widened his eyes, quickly stood up, pulled out the hard wolf skins in the wooden box one by one, and roughly counted them, and a wooden box stuffed nineteen wind wolf skins.

Surdak said truthfully: "Some of the wolf skins are in good condition, and some of the wolf skins have some cuts on them......

The Brunei manager's eyes were a little straight, and he hurriedly said: "These wind wolf skins can completely make a batch of wind-attribute magic paper, and this kind of magic paper is still very popular on the market." ”
