1520. Black Crystal
Waters. Marquis Nishizawa's face had a stiff smile on his face, and there was a hint of suspicion in his eyes, like a fox trying to hide in the shadows.
He may have felt that Surdak was asking for a sky-high price, and on the black market in Handanar City, the market price of the unidentified black magic crystals flowing out of those adventure groups was about sixteen gold coins, which was twice the price of ordinary black magic crystals, which meant that each of these unidentified black magic crystals was worth nine gold coins.
For an ordinary family of three in the Green Empire, the value of such a black magic crystal's merit value can allow them to live comfortably in Bena City for two years.
Noble lords can redeem successful achievements at the military logistics offices in the central cities of each province when they buy unidentified black magic crystals, and when the merit value reaches a certain level, they can get their titles promoted.
On the contrary, if in the years when wars in this plane are frequent, the noble lords need to take the initiative to participate in the war, which is also a way to obtain merit.
If a nobleman fails to achieve the corresponding merit for several years in a row, then in terms of succession, when the title is passed on to the heir, it will be demoted accordingly, just as Miss Hoyle inherited the title and was demoted to viscount because of her lack of merit.
Marquis Nishizawa's ageless face put away a smile, and without even saying a word, he turned around and walked towards the steps of the castle wall.
Surdak didn't say anything more, but squatted down beside Samira and lunged, then picked up the gold shield in his right hand.
Swing your shield and draw your sword.
This is the basic movement of the shield warrior during his usual training, and as long as he has time, he will practice every day, rain or shine.
Marquis Nishizawa walked to the front of the steps of the city wall, glanced back at Surdak reluctantly, and hesitated for a moment before deciding to walk back, with a 'you won't win' expression on his face.
"At the price of twenty gold coins, how many black magic crystals can I exchange at one time?" Marquis Nishizawa asked.
In his opinion, although he lost the dignity of a marquis, he was still worth it in front of interests.
"You negotiated with me for the first time, I offered you a very reasonable price, but you chose to give up the purchase, and now you are the second time that you have proposed to me to buy the Black Magic Crystal, so this time there is no longer a first purchase discount, and now each unidentified Black Magic Crystal is priced at twenty-three gold coins, do you still want it?"
Surdak straightened up again, sword and shield in his hand, and asked Marquis Nishizawa.
“……”
Marquis Nishizawa was tempted to yell at Surdak, 'You're a ...... a dog,' so he casually covered his lips with his fist and coughed to stop himself from cursing.
Since he inherited the title from his father, there have been few times when it has been difficult to control his emotions.
'Yes! Do I still want it? Absolutely! Isn't that the only purpose for which I'm here? ’
Marquis Nishizawa closed his eyes and said silently in his heart.
It's just that this price is much higher than the price he expected, it's ridiculously high, if he really buys the black magic crystal back at such a high price, it is estimated that no nobleman will entrust him to buy this kind of goods on his behalf in the future.
Therefore, Marquis Nishizawa knew that this price was not feasible, but this time he did not turn around and left, because once he turned around and left this time, this black magic crystal deal might be completely ruined.
Looking at the young commander in front of him who was full of a strong divine atmosphere, and was a rising star among the noble lords of Bena Province, Marquis Nishizawa knew that his identity would not play any role in this deal, on the contrary, it was he who came with the reinforcements and took the position of logistics chief in the reinforcements, which made the young commander feel disgusted.
But he has the confidence to say so......
As a commander of the Western Route Army with more than 100,000 troops in his hands, I am afraid that there will not be too many people in the entire Bena Province who can make him willing to take the initiative to retreat.
Marquis Nishizawa opened his eyes after only three seconds, and then his gaze fell back on Surdak, and he asked him:
"What if I choose to exchange resources?"
Surdak still said calmly: "It depends on what kind of resource it is......"
Marquis Nishizawa didn't sell Guan Zi again this time, and said directly: "Horse! Gubo comes to warhorse! ”
Surdak laughed when he heard Marquis Nishizawa's words, as if he had seen a happy sitcom in the theater, and only after a moment did he put away his smile and said to Marquis Nishizawa:
"Honestly, I don't need the most right now...... Maybe it's Gu Bo who came to warhorse! ”
The deal for the Dark Crystal eventually fell through, and Waters Brown. Marquis Nishizawa was very unwilling.
He thinks there must be talks about the deal, but the two sides have not been able to find that balance.
There are many reasons for this, and the biggest reason may be that the reinforcements did not receive the order of the Western Route Army, so they rushed to the Dake Valley, and also sent a team of armored swordsmen to the Moyunling Heights to reconnoiter with a very tough attitude.
Not only did this touch on the vital interests of the Lord of Surdak, but it was likely to anger the young lord completely.
Even if he has tens of thousands of black magic crystals in his hands, he is unwilling to sell them to the lords of Handanar County.
Although the deal with the Lord of Surdak could not be reached, Marquis Nishizawa was not too anxious, he could actually choose to directly contact the trading houses and adventure groups in the valley here, and it was estimated that they still had a large number of black magic crystals in their hands.
In addition, once the main army of the reinforcements enters the Moyunling Heights, a large number of magic crystals will be harvested just around the corner.
……
Watching Marquis Nishizawa gracefully walk down the city wall, although his face could still remain calm, the anger in his eyes almost erupted from his eyes.
Jiali. Decker came from the eastern wall in heavy armor, came to a halt at Samira's side, and asked Surdak with a puzzled expression:
"Boss, the purchase price he gave is okay! Why don't you sell him? ”
Surdak knows about Karry. What Decker meant, she meant that these black magic crystals were sold to anyone the same, even if they were brought back to Bena Province, they might not be able to raise the price of twenty gold coins, and now that there were frequent wars in various positions of the empire, the black magic crystals began to flood.
With Karrie. Decker became more and more familiar, and Surdak found that this second-turn powerhouse who could afford to wear heavy armor and hold a magic shotgun was a generalist, and leaving her in the Constructed Knights as the head of the Knights would allow him to organize the daily work of the Knights in order, and throw her to the forest camp to take charge of the management of the entire camp, and also make the camp run normally.
And as a commander, Carrie. Decker is sane enough and would never make some rash moves like Andrew.
The man with the soul of a berserker is simply a madman on the battlefield......
Surdak patted the money bag on his waist and said with a smile:
"Wouldn't you be surprised if I said that all the Black Crystals in my hand had already been spent?"
Jiali. Decker blinked and said, "What's so surprising about that......"
"In the last few battles, the number of consumable magic weapons we have invested on the battlefield has grown rapidly, the weapons, equipment and material supplies of the Agrod tribe are also an astronomical amount, and the various rewards on the merit exchange list have gradually increased, if it weren't for the fact that we won a few battles, it is estimated that our situation would have become very difficult."
In fact, there are many secrets hidden in the lord army of Surdak, and everyone just tacitly does not take the initiative to mention them.
For example, the mysterious alchemist Aphrodite and her enhanced magic pattern, the mysterious Red Dragon and the Ghost Army, and the vast amount of supplies that can reach the battlefield without any supply lines.
A lot of things are attributed to mysterious magic......
Surdak didn't expect Carrie. Decker would have seen it so thoroughly that he said with some emotion:
"yes...... Otherwise, I would not have ventured across the heights with my cavalry regiment and traveled thousands of miles to the North Pass to help the Agrod tribe build a northern defensive line. ”
Jiali. Decker wasn't prepared to get into Surdak's secrets, so she changed the subject and explained what she meant:
"By the way, boss, there are many soldiers in the barracks who want to be able to exchange for enhanced magic patterns, as long as there are enhanced magic patterns on the merit list, they will be exchanged soon, and you have to take the time to exchange those rewards recently......"
Surdak didn't expect that the enhanced magic pattern marked with 50,000 merits could become a sought-after item.
"Oh? Aren't they going to change their Demonic Pattern Makeup? Surdak asked.
"This group of people are almost all ant cavalry who have accumulated a lot of merits, their own qualifications are limited, before they reach a turn, even if they are exchanged for the magic pattern construction, they can't wear it because of the insufficient carrying capacity, if they want to break through a turn, it is estimated that there is only one way to go, so everyone chooses to exchange for the enhanced magic pattern." Jiali. Decker replied, "There are also some adventure parties that have taken a fancy to these enhanced magic patterns......"
Surdak waved his hand and said clearly: "Seal the opening of this kind of reward to the outside world, and the enhanced magic pattern will not be provided to anyone outside the legion for the time being." ”
"Got it."
Jiali. Decker responded immediately.
Received clear instructions from Surdak and Karry. Decker turned to deal with the matter at hand.
There were only two people left on the city wall, Samira and Surdak, and the guards at the head of the city did not dare to approach this side at all, and only stood in a row at the head of the city twenty meters away.
Surdak turned his head and saw that Samira, who had completed the basic movements of Jiu-Jitsu, was a little stunned, so he asked:
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Samira took out her heavenly bow and drew the bowstring with all her might, without arrows between her fingers, and looked at a cliff outside the city wall, and said:
"It feels like you've come back a little differently than before."
Surdak asked curiously, "What's the difference?" ”
Samira put away the Heavenly Strike Bow in her hand and turned to look at Surdak, her pale red eyes with a hint of confusion:
"The breath on your body, I don't mean the holy light on you...... It's hard to describe, it's like every breath you take, every step you take is in tune with the mountain wind, the water in the stream, the woods of the whole mountain, like the 'way of nature' that the druids are pursuing. ”
Surdak looked down at his boots-clad feet, and felt his breathing rate again, wondering how he didn't feel it clearly......
……
The most bustling shopping streets in the Darker Valley are lined with shops selling food, weapons, armor, groceries, and even antidote potions, where parties can procure supplies of any kind.
Of course, the business scope of the business of the merchant is not only these, most of the commercial houses also have acquisition business, such as the unidentified black magic crystal, the black pattern demon skin, the black iron blade in the hands of the demon, and even the sharp bone spurs on the demon are also purchased by the merchants, of course, the bone spurs are not very valuable.
The number of adventure parties in the Duck Valley is very large, which leads to a very busy daily trade, and the busiest shopping streets are packed with people every day.
Some adventure groups returning from the Moyunling Highlands will take some of the harvest to the market here to sell, mainly some bulky loot that is inconvenient to store and transport, such as the black iron blade has a large trading volume, followed by the black vein demon skin, this kind of item adventure group will not store in large quantities.
As for the loot such as the magic core and the unidentified black magic crystal, the trading volume in the market is very small, the main reason is that the magic crystal is easy to carry, if the magic crystal is sold, the gold coins exchanged for it are even more inconvenient.
In addition, many parties have the habit of storing unidentified black magic crystals, and it is easy to exchange these black magic crystals for gold coins, but it is not so easy to buy black magic crystals with gold coins.
The rewards on the merit exchange list in the camp of the Western Route Army can only be exchanged for unidentified black magic crystals......
Marquis Nishizawa has contacted several business owners in a row on the shopping street, and these business house owners do have some unidentified black magic crystals in their hands, and the price of this kind of black magic crystals is basically about eighteen gold coins, but when it comes to the number of magic crystals, the total number of black magic crystals owned by these trading houses is not even a fraction of Marquis Nishizawa's needs.
Almost all of the black magic crystals purchased by the bosses of the trading houses are when the gold coins in the hands of some adventure groups are spent, and there are no other goods to sell, so they will sell one or two black magic crystals for emergency.
So actually...... There are very few black magic crystals in the market here.
The proprietors of the trading houses even suggested that Marquis Nishizawa go and talk directly to the adventure groups in the valley......
Waters. Marquis Nishizawa and his entourage wandered around the shopping streets all day, visiting almost all the trading houses, and contacting several adventuring groups before he bought thirty-seven unidentified black magic crystals.
Marquis Nishizawa returned to the barracks with an ugly face, and even dinner was eaten in a wooden house.
At night, the camp of the reinforcements was lit with bonfires, which looked starry from afar.
A gust of wind blew, and the soldiers in the camp couldn't open their eyes because of the puffs of smoke, and almost all the combat squads prepared dinner alone, making the camp a mess.
Not far away, the camp of the Western Route Army was not at all like this, and the infantry soldiers who had been training all day would line up to bathe at the washing wall, and then line up to eat at the big dining hall, and everything seemed so orderly......
