Chapter 74: Departure
For the next few days, Colley was closed.
Because of the deadline, the gem shop was temporarily closed, and all the time was devoted to the synthesis of raw materials.
The upgrading of the wooden cart was entrusted to Flanders, and although there had been little communication with him lately, he readily agreed that his talents would come in handy when it came to the manufacture of large metal equipment.
"It's just a small thing, when I get into trouble, you can help me." Flanders briefly cut off the communication.
"I'm running out of energy from the communication cards here, do I need to come over and replenish it?" News from Mary's side.
Ke Li: "No, too frequent communication will cause suspicion, there are still a few batches of gem card sets that will slowly come out, and when the energy runs out, say that the contact person is busy, so it should be enough." ”
"Hey, I heard that you want to exchange gold pounds from the club, and you can't stand the loneliness in Mammoth Horn, and you finally decided to return to China?" News from Enzo's side.
Ke Li: "I have to go back and see if there are any more professional proposals from the church, I've been tinkering with it on my own, and it's very troublesome if I can't be promoted, so I can't be stuck here for the rest of my life." ”
"It's not a rush, I just want to remind you that there is an extra 20% reward for delivery within 7 days, and you will deliver regularly, right? Shouldn't you run away halfway through it and find that you can't finish it? "News from Wayne.
Ke Li: "No, I know what to do, Mammoth Horn ensures that the price of raw materials is not too outrageous, if you also sell 1 grade 1 ruby for 600 gold pounds, then you can't do it." ”
Wayne: "Considering that there may be orders in the future, we will also help you find some relatively cheap materials, do you want to get level 1 enchanted gems, or level 1~3 raw materials?" ”
Ke Li: "Raw materials, I will deal with them at a recycling price, and some people will not be happy, and I will use raw materials with my ability to save people from idleness." ”
Smooth delivery on the 7th day.
After deducting the cost of raw materials for goods, the rental of fake Holy Grails, the consumption of tinder fuel, and scattered information inquiries and tests, Ke Li still had 90 magic crystals and some change in his hand.
Many extraordinary people are crazy about bounty for months, and they may not be able to save this money.
But for Collie, as long as the level of gemstone craftsmanship can support the operational demand, the speed of making money can be unrealistically fast.
Wayne still had an expedited order that barely held on, and the last order was delayed by another 10 days.
So before the 90 magic crystals could be spent, they became 300 magic crystals, and if it weren't for the purchase of the original fire, Ke Li might have considered the legendary gems.
During this time, Wayne's side also got a lot of legendary gem materials, and Ke Li didn't match it after a few glances, and he didn't have any inspiration to design legendary gems, so he simply didn't buy them in the end.
"No, this time I promise, I asked a friend, there is really no in the short term, you can rest assured for a while, this kind of continuous stacking gem orders are also rare."
Open the door, open the store.
Ke Li leaned behind the counter as usual, looking at the people of all ethnic groups shuttling through the streets of Fang City, so that he could adapt to the slow pace of the daze and think about other things.
An adventurer walked into the gem shop menacingly, and found that the owner of the shop was an extraordinary person, and the other customers who were looking at the goods were quiet, and asked a few words about the price of gems in a very cowardly tone.
"Really? Is a grade 1 ruby sure 480 gold pounds? ”
The adventurer was overjoyed to buy the gem, stepped out of the door, walked to the door of the other gem shop and scolded:
"You hateful profiteers, you know that 1 grade 1 ruby is sold for 600 gold pounds to bully people, the quality is worse than others, the attitude is more perfunctory than others, the price is more expensive than others, and you have the face to sell it so expensive!"
"It's still a reliable new store!"
Ke Li raised his head a little tiredly, just in time to meet the blackened faces of the other shopkeepers, as well as the eyes of hidden dissatisfaction and anger, the expression of whispering and pulling the corners of his mouth.
Wayne has helped himself for so long, with all kinds of orders and supply support, and he has tried his best to maintain a balance between interests and risks, so as not to have a big conflict with the local gem merchants.
In the end, it is inevitable that "one powder tops ten black", and the decisions of each store eventually lead to consumers turning their faces and scolding the street.
It's like an extraordinary fate that can't be avoided: you know there will be a day when you try to avoid it, life and fate make everything like a multiple-choice question, and in the end the truth is only a single choice.
There are no skills to analyze in the gem secret realm, and these are the resources and materials that are suitable for you, and if you don't want to disclose the name of the anomaly sequence, you have to find a way to start from scratch.
Half a year is not a long time, although Wayne always says that Colly is busy with business, and it is normal for him to be promoted slowly, but Collie himself knows in his heart:
It was the anxiety and confusion in his heart that did not allow him to stay in sequence 18 all the time. As time goes by, his form will slowly decline, and he doesn't want to wait for it to get bad and regret it.
"It's almost time to go."
Speaking of which, there is not much difference between winter and spring temperatures in Mammoth Horn, but there is a big difference in passenger flow.
In winter, many aliens leave their work and tools behind like a flock of geese.
In the spring, they crossed the territory of other countries, waving their wings and animal feet, and actively returned from a long distance, and the trade routes that had been blocked by the harsh weather reopened.
avoided the loneliness of returning home at the end of the year, the year-end liquidation of creditors' collections, and the nasty faces in those memories.
Wait until the spring sun is a little warmer before setting off, and all kinds of trivial things are also dealt with.
Ke Li stood on the street, looking at the market where he had lived for half a year, acknowledging its mechanism and friendliness, but also acknowledging its darkness and oppression.
I don't like messy entanglements, so it's better to cut it off with a knife, be a ruthless guest who is good at breaking away, and leave other things to others to experience for themselves.
"How long do you plan to go back this time, I'll take care of it for you." Flanders was as confident as ever, not afraid of acquaintances or parting.
Colly tugged at the reins of the pack beasts and handed them to Flanders: "Who knows, if the promotion comes to fruition, I will find a way and move on." ”
"Maybe soon, maybe for a long time, I'm also the first time to become extraordinary, who knows what you say?"
Enzo patted Colley warmly: "Then I wish you a smooth journey, no matter when you come back, Mammoth Horn and the club welcome you." ”
"Mary, that woman didn't show up, she's been mysterious lately, I don't know if she forgot her former friends when she had a new love, huh...... In conclusion, may the moonlight guide your path. ”
Wayne stood in the shadow of the wall and said goodbye with the card: "You're quite good at watching the time to slip away, we'll take care of the businessman's affairs, you can keep the card." ”
"Goodbye, and don't forget your letter of introduction."
Ke Li said goodbye to the strange, familiar faces in turn. Some are guests, some are passers-by, some are competitors, and some are hired adventurers.
"Should I say he is gentle or cruel? In the future, if the business is not good and the sales are lazy, without his excuse, the price and business can only remain normal. ”
"Come on, people will not be able to live without you? Mammoth Horn has been in existence for so many years, and what kind of extraordinary person has not appeared, that is, a small talented gem craftsman. ”
"I also feel that others, last year's work was not completed, and if you don't do well in the first quarter of this year, you have to get out, let's work!"
There is no teleportation circle on the way home, and Corrie must travel all the way from the cold wasteland to the borders of the Griffon Empire.
The chariot was full of food reserves and money supplies, as well as cold steel cannons and warm revolvers, demonic scales fixed to a small wooden table, and a thick and entangled "Demonic Treat" at hand.
Mountains and rivers are like picture scrolls, from cold rocky wilderness to stretched grass and forest, with the wheel of the wheel constantly pushing.
The loneliness and hostility of nature have been left behind, and there are fewer and fewer places covered in snow and ice, and industrious insects and drunken lazy people are common in the vicinity of flowering fruit tree gardens.
Occasionally do a reconnaissance of the Purgatory Walk, and also practice other skills of using the fire.
The caravan leads the way, the caravan stays, and the caravan leaves.
Ke Li didn't stop for others along the way, but just followed others and went to where he wanted to go.
Maybe it's because it's been too long, and the demon with good patience can't help but take the initiative to contact and ask:
"Boy, my token is constantly moving, did you leave a certain place and finally go to find the Brave Hunting Church?"
Ke Li pinched the flat wine jug in his arms, copied the chef's recipe, and tore open the copied page and fed it to the tinder:
"Yes, if you meet a friend from the Brave Hunting Church, I'll help you ask."
"The Griffon Empire, the city of mortals, is finally back......"
