Baron Furk, with his attendants, proceeded in the direction he had inquired.

Before I arrived, I saw a long queue of people winding around, and behind them, there were more new arrivals filling the line, making the road more and more congested.

He instructed his attendants to lead the horses and wait, and squeezed through the crowd to the middle.

There are those who squeeze in, and there are those who wave packages and squeeze outwards.

A male sailor, with thinning hair and a face rough from the sea breeze, opened the package in his hand, looked at it briefly, and then cursed.

"Damn, it's ten more common cards!"

The sailor's face was full of indignation: "This is the third pack of cards that Lao Tzu bought, and he doesn't even have a legendary card!" ”

At this time, a man dressed as a stonemason raised a card in his hand and shouted happily: "Out, out, I have a legendary card of the Count of Lothar." Hahaha, tonight, in the 'Trees and Fists' tavern, Lao Tzu will definitely kill all sides and make a lot of money! ”

The joys and sorrows of people are not interconnected.

The sailor clutched a stack of cards in his hand, gritted his teeth in anger, and wanted to give him a hammer in the head.

Then.

A merchant shouted, "Hey, man, I'll give you ten gold florin coins to buy this legendary card in your hand, how about it?" ”

The man's face suddenly showed a look of excitement.

Ten gold florins can buy five fat pigs, or two sturdy pack horses, and it only costs ten silver dinars to buy the card pack yourself.

Even if he kills all sides in the tavern and wins for several days, it is difficult to win such a huge fortune.

So he gritted his teeth and said, "Deal." ”

The merchant smiled and said, "Clever choice, we can sign a contract immediately to ensure that everything is legal." ”

He paid such a high price in order to give gifts to his loyal lords.

Their lord and his wife, both loyal readers of The Witcher, must have been glad to receive such a unique gift.

As for whether it's worth it or not?

As long as the lord entrusts his business to him, he will naturally earn ten times the profit.

When Fulke saw this scene, he secretly said in his heart.

Heavenly Father is above, these Jerusalem people are simply crazy, they actually traded ten golden florins for a card.

Although the production of this card is really beautiful.

He waited in line for a long time, and finally squeezed to the front position.

Without thinking, he said, "Give me ten packs." ”

The young man who sold the goods showed an apologetic smile on his face: "I'm sorry, each person is limited to three packs." Three packs are enough to put together a deck that you can use to play against others. ”

Fulke looked surprised: "Why are there still purchase restrictions?" ”

The young man who sold the goods smiled: "Because I am an adult, I hope that more people can participate in such interesting entertainment activities, not to make money." ”

"At the same time, it is also to prevent people from having a gambler mentality and using all the money that was originally used to maintain their lives to buy cards."

Spending the money to make ends meet to buy this kind of thing? Will there be such fools?

Fulke sneered in his heart: "Then let's have three packs first." ”

The salesman stacked the three card packs together and handed them to Fulke: "Thank you for your patronage, thirty dinars in total, one of the best condition, or a gold solid." ”

"So expensive?"

Baron Fulke's heart ached secretly.

His territory in Languedoc, in an area close to the Pyrenees, was full of mountains with bare white limestone, and desolate scrubland.

Therefore, thirty dinars is a lot of money for Baron Furk.

"Dear guests, this is not expensive, we use precious paper shipped from the Song Empire in the East, and it is also inlaid with a metal frame to prevent corners.

If you've seen the quality of our cards with your own eyes, you'll know that the lifelike portrait on it, if it's in a frame, who wouldn't think it's an artist's masterpiece? ”

Fulke pondered for a moment, feeling reasonable, and the sound of urging behind him made it difficult for him to ride the tiger, so he had to say, "In this case, I'd better have a pack first." ”

The salesman's face was as usual, and he still said politely: "Okay, I will receive ten silver dinars." ”

Fulk held the card bag and squeezed through the crowd with some difficulty.

Tear open the paper envelope.

Open the first one.

The back is rendered with a brilliant gold color, and Fulk even believes that there is even a layer of gold plating on it.

The picture above depicts Baldwin IV wearing a silver mask and leading his army to kill on the battlefield.

【God Bless My King Baldwin】

Points: 6

Effect: Place it in your melee slot, and all melee followers will gain a two-point kick.

His hands trembled a little.

It's worth it!

The cost of making this card alone is probably far more than the ten silver dinars he gave.

Scroll down and see another card that is also bright gold.

【Raymond, Count of Tripoli】

Points: 6

Effect: Placing it in your melee bar will destroy the opponent's melee bar, the first card on the left.

"Oh my God, a bag of double gold, what kind of luck are you?"

The onlookers let out a burst of exclamations.

Many people were eager to come up and loot - if it weren't for the stubborn royal knights patrolling nearby.

Baron Fulke only felt a flutter under his feet, two golden cards, if according to the purchase price of the merchant just now, that is to say, he only used ten dinars of silver, he earned twenty gold florin coins of full color?

His mouth was dry.

"I seem to understand why they only want to sell three packs each."

He immediately turned around and squeezed back into the crowd.

...

Standing on the top floor of the Constance manor, Coors smiled with satisfaction as he watched the scene that took place in front of the shop not far away.

The development of events was all expected by him.

Of all the packs in the first batch, only one had two Legendary, or Gold, cards.

In fact, even if he puts a few more cards, he still earns, and he earns a lot.

What is the greatest and most irrepressible human nature?

It's greed!

"Gambling" is to take advantage of human greed.

People sometimes think they're lucky enough.

Who knows, the more probabilistic things are, the more they are not clearly marked with a price, it is easier for people to get what they want, but this kind of probabilistic things will make people rush to it.

Someone only has a hundred silver dinars in his pocket, and only ten dinars can be tried once, and it may be multiplied dozens of times after one attempt, who would not be tempted?

If the price is clearly marked, a legendary card costs 100 dinars, which will make the customer calm down.

"It's a pity, if it weren't for the adult's explicit forbidden, I could even guide these people to take out the last copper plate in their pockets for eating."

Coors grimly smiled as a vampire, for he had never treated humans as his own kind, let alone compassion.

Today, just for "nursery", Coors sent out twenty or thirty, all of whom are retained veterans who have taken off their armor, loyal and reliable, and their acting skills are also online, and many people can even be said to be acting in their true colors.

Because when they were in the city guards, they were first-class characters of ruffians and hooligans.

The reason why Lothar was in the first place was because he was worried about triggering an alternative "tulip fever" (the Dutch tulip incident in the 17th century), although it is unlikely that this is possible.

But he was not a pure businessman, and profit was never the first priority for Lothar.

Jurisprudence, prestige.

Two words are invisible, intangible.

But it's genuine.

He doesn't want to ruin his reputation and become a "vampire who empties people's wallets" because of this.
