Chapter 273: Deep Water Valley Mining Merchant Group [Ask for Subscription]
The continent of Naroa is vast.
The place Chen Xuan has set foot so far is just a drop in the ocean.
Not to mention the small Magdam City, even if it is the giant city of Atax, which has a population of tens of millions in the city, it is nothing compared to the entire Naroa continent.
Under such circumstances, I try to figure out the style of the whole continent from my personal point of view.
It's a bit too arrogant.
In fact, the continent of Naroa is not so advanced, but it is not backward either.
At the very least, it is a world that is self-consistent in all aspects.
Suddenly, Chen Xuan suddenly felt something.
In the future, I will still have to take a walk and take a good look at this wonderful world.
Suddenly, his horizons were broadened, and Chen Xuan couldn't help but have a new desire to explore.
Shaking his head, he stopped thinking about what he had and didn't have.
He also wanted to see the trade in the shop.
Magtan lacked a large number of supplies, and the current situation was that there was no money to spend, not that there was no money to spend.
If you really spend all the money you have, the supplies you will procure will be enough to expand the size of Magdam City by two or three times.
Therefore, taking advantage of the opportunity to come to the sentinel trade mall, Chen Xuan also planned to look for a few suitable and capable business groups.
Relying on the long-distance teleportation array of the Black Leaf Sentinel, the circulation of materials here is very convenient.
After walking a few steps along the entrance of the mall, he soon found a merchant that interested him.
Merchants hang signboards with the words "Deep Water Valley Minerals in Heiye Sentinel Business Group".
In the grass hut at the back, there are various metal ingots, as well as some amorphous ore wool.
The ingots were neatly stacked together, and there were hundreds of pieces of each, to say the least.
They were all piled up in boxy shapes, glowing with different metallic sheens in the light of the dawn sun.
The size of each piece of metal casting is the same.
They are all rectangular shapes with a length of 60 centimeters, a width of 35 centimeters, and a thickness of 20 centimeters.
The weight depends on the type of metal.
Among them, the largest number and the most striking look are the black iron ingots.
This thing is also the most commonly used ingot in the Naroa Continent minting field.
However, in general, black iron ingots are also the most readily available.
All you need to do is smelt the black iron coin to get the mint.
And any settlement has a huge amount of black iron coins.
However, the price and cost of the finished ingot are much cheaper than directly smelting and smelting black iron coins.
The difference between them is roughly the same as trading gold and jewelry gold in Blue Star.
In the case of consumables, it is certainly much more cost-effective to buy ingots than molten black iron coins.
The metal ingots stacked on the site may not seem to be a large number, but in fact, they can meet the consumption of nearly four Naroa months for a state-level blacksmith association.
The total value of this shipment amounted to millions of crowns, if not tens of millions.
Most of the people who come here to buy ingots are apprentice blacksmiths who run errands in small settlements.
You only need to buy three or four pieces of each casting material to meet short-term needs.
Chen Xuan observed silently for a while, and then walked to the stall of minerals in the Deep Water Valley.
The emblem of the Deepwater Valley Minerals is a meandering river with a pickaxe.
This emblem looks relatively simple, but it is easy to remember and easy to impress.
He only stood for a moment when a clerk in a robe and uniform approached.
The uniform looks as much like a workwear as it does a machined apron.
It was also covered with mineral oil and dirt.
"Deep Water Valley Minerals at your service."
The clerk is a pure-blooded human who doesn't look very old, just a little obese.
His bulging cheeks were also stained with black mineral stains.
Chen Xuan nodded, reached out and grabbed a handful in his pocket, and took out the list issued by Baron Bezos.
"I need a lot of them."
"I wonder if Deep Water Valley can provide delivery services?"
"Also, the inventory here doesn't quite meet my needs."
He didn't rush to report the details, but threw the question to the other party first.
I saw the little fat clerk smile confidently.
"Deep Water Valley Minerals is one of the largest mining conglomerates in the Kingdom of Duroya."
"We have some of the best veins in the Kingdom."
"At the same time, there is the best refining technology."
"If your demand is relatively large, and the total amount of the order exceeds two million crowns, the merchant group can complete the transfer through the teleportation array at the sentinel within three Naroa days."
"As for delivery, of course, it is also within our service range."
"The total order value is more than 100,000 kroner, with free delivery over a range of 500 km."
"With a total order value of more than 1 million crowns, you can be delivered within a range of 5,000 kilometres."
With that, he turned and gestured to the land-walking beasts that were resting behind the makeshift warehouse.
Then he said in a more confident tone.
"Our land-based behemoths can trek up to 1,000 kilometers a day with heavy loads!"
After listening to his description, Chen Xuan shook his head.
"Land Beasts?"
"No, they're still too slow."
"Forget it, I can solve the problem of transportation by myself."
"You'd better convert the shipping service to me into a discount."
The Terrestrial Behemoth is almost the most carrying capacity and speed of any pack beast on the ground.
These behemoths are about 12 meters long, which is comparable to a large bus.
They have a stout tail that allows them to maintain their balance effectively.
It has eight cylindrical thick legs.
The back is relatively flat and covered with a sturdy carapace.
The single carrying capacity is 170 times that of a four-eyed ox, 266 times that of a mountain horse, and 210 times that of a coolie mule.
It has excellent stamina and can trek more than four water clock hours in a row.
You only need to take a break for a water clock to move on.
It has a mild, omnivorous temperament and mainly eats a variety of forages and fresh plants.
Manure can be used as fuel after drying due to its rich fiber content.
Most importantly, it can also cast several earth-based spells of the first to second order.
The land-walking giant beast has no price in the beast market, and it is a large demonic animal that money may not be able to buy.
The Black Leaf Sentinel is also equipped with three heads here, and all the merchants in the vendors are considered luxurious.
And the speed of traveling 1,000 kilometers a day is actually not slow.
It is only seven or eight thousand kilometers from Magdam to Atax.
Let the land beast run a trip, and it will only take seven or eight days to arrive each way.
Of course, the day here refers to the day of Naroa.
For the Naroa Aborigines, delivery by land-based beasts is definitely a luxury service.
But Chen Xuan scoffed at this.
Such an attitude made the little fat clerk feel a little dissatisfied.
The guy dressed as a mercenary in front of him is too big.
He wanted to see how much he was going to buy.
silently glanced at the bronze-level adventurer emblem worn on Chen Xuan's chest.
quietly concealed the contempt in his eyes.
Bronze-level adventurers are at the bottom of the Black Leaf Sentinels.
As for the adventurers of the Black Iron level, it is difficult to mix in the jurisdiction of the sentinel site.
The surrounding monster caves are not comparable to Bang City in terms of scale and number.
In Magdam City, Bronze-level adventurers are considered the mainstay, and Black Iron adventurers are considered the bottom.
When it comes to the Black Leaf Sentinel, the Bronze-level adventurer becomes the real bottom.
And the Black Iron Class adventurers simply have no sense of existence here.
Depending on the level of the region, the strength level and the chain of contempt will also progress.
Obviously, Chen Xuan, who was wearing a bronze-level insignia, was now in a position near the end of the chain of contempt.
"Well, that's up to you."
"But how much do you really want to buy?"
Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes and glanced at the straw shed warehouse behind him.
The accumulation of metal ingots filled the air with the smell of iron filings.
After roughly estimating the number in his heart, Chen Xuan waved his hand.
"You have all the goods here."
"In addition, you need 500 pieces of precision forging alloy castings, 900 magic stones, 600 molten crystals, 350 orichalcum ingots with Hall powder added, 90 bundles of mythril wire, 150 bags of low-rank elemental magic gem powder, and 90 boxes of flame ore..."
Chen Xuan reported a long list of metal materials according to the list.
These materials are not available in settlements around Magdam City.
Originally, I could only go to Ataxus Big City, but now that there are so many merchants in the Black Leaf Outpost, and there are many merchants with good strength, it is also a good choice to solve it here at one time.
This batch of materials, according to the plan, can allow the Magtan City Blacksmith Association and the Alchemy Workshop to use more than three Naroa months, which is enough to support the consumption of doubling the defense area.
It is mainly used to make various types of equipment and consumables such as arrows/crossbows.
There are also rune enhancements required for front-line fortifications, and magic arrays are engraved.
After listening to the list reported by Chen Xuan, the chubby clerk was stunned.
"Pavilion... You're not kidding, are you? ”
Chen Xuan rolled his eyes silently.
"Of course not."
"Go and call your stewards."
"Calculate the price, I hope to see the goods ready before the sun goes down."
Seeing that Chen Xuan's expression didn't look like a joke, this guy finally got serious.
In a panic, he ran backwards, and soon brought with him a long-bearded dwarf dressed in a delicate robe and wearing a jeweled wrench.
The dwarf looked not young, and the corners of his eyes were already crawling with wrinkles.
He has more than a dozen different emblems on his chest, large and small, showing his skills and identity.
This is also a common occurrence in the continent of Naroa.
After all, there are so many bells and whistles of associations and organizations.
Almost every organization represents one or more specific technical expertise and capabilities.
The more emblems you hang, the stronger your ability is.
It is important to know that dwarves usually live longer than humans, and they are considered adults at the age of forty.
It was only at the age of one hundred and twenty that the signs of aging began to appear.
Even dwarves who have not cultivated magic essence can easily live to be two or three hundred years old.
If you have a certain amount of magic cultivation, the upper limit of your average lifespan will be extended to a certain extent.
The price of a long life expectancy is a relatively low fertility overall.
Dwarven couples basically have one child for life, and it is difficult to conceive a second child.
Unless you drink the dwarven spring, you can increase fertility.
Legend has it that it was a gift from Muradin.
As springs became scarcer, so did the dwarven population.
Intermarriage has become a second option for many dwarves.
It has to be said that this is also a reflection of ethnic characteristics and balance.
If there really is any long-lived and fertile race, then domination of the Naroa continent is just around the corner.
So the slightly old dwarf in front of him is at least one or two hundred years old.
"Hello, young Mr. Adventurer."
"First of all, let me introduce myself."
"I'm Reza Ironstone, the manager of the Deepwater Valley Mining Merchant Group stationed at the Black Leaf Sentinel."
"Fourth-order blacksmith in the Duroa Kingdom, fourth-level mineral appraiser, second-order deacon of the Forge Club..."
As Chen Xuan expected, the dwarf named Reza Ironstone came up to introduce himself.
The lengthy titles and the names of the various associations made him drowsy to hear.
But he didn't interrupt, because it was very rude to do so according to etiquette.
After about a minute of self-introduction, Reza Ironstone finally stopped.
"The total amount of supplies you purchased is more than 10 million crowns."
"You can get a dark gold card for a major customer of Deepwater Valley Mining."
"You can get a 9.2% discount with your card, but you can only use it if you make a single purchase of 1 million crowns."
"Also, my guy told me that you don't need us to deliver."
"You can get 350,000 kroner off here."
"It's equivalent to hiring six land-based beasts to transport 5,000 kilometers each way."
"Now, you need to hand over at least three million kroner on the spot, and we'll stock it for you right away."
Reza Ironstone's business ability is obviously much stronger than that of the fat clerk.
And it doesn't drag the mud and water in the slightest.
First, the approximate total price of the shipment was estimated.
Then he said the preferential measures of the merchant group, which sounded reasonable and convincing.
After he finished speaking, he instructed the clerk to fetch a large wooden barrel with a diameter of two meters.
Smiling, Chen Xuan paid three million kroner first.
This money is considered an intent money, mainly to prove financial resources and eliminate oral hi.
Previously, the municipal treasury of Magdam had a balance of about 20 million kroons.
When the whole city was conquered, about 60 or 70 million kroner was collected from various scattered sources.
In addition, the Blacksmiths' Guild, the Alchemy Workshop, the Magic Guild and other organizations in the city have a total reserve of more than 190 million crowns.
In the end, about 600 million privately minted dark gold coins and 327 smelted dark gold bricks were found from the vault of Ansetus.
The specifications of each dark gold brick are the same, and after subsequent measurements, the value is around 130,000 kroner.
As a result, the amount of funds available in Magdam City is now almost a billion kroons.
In addition to the 100,000,000,000 left to the treasury of the state city, and the 100,000,000,000 kroner that Baron Bezos carried.
The rest of the funds are in Chen Xuan's storage compartment.
He held out his right hand, where he wore a storage bracelet.
Of course, this thing is only used as a disguise.
After confirming the exact location, he began the process of photographing the dark gold coin.
In recent days, the dark gold coin has been trading at 1,179 crowns, which is a small high.
So you only need to take out 2545 pieces to count.
As for those fractions, don't mention them, anyway, when the total price is calculated in the end, you have to cut the price.
More than 2,000 dark gold coins of excellent fineness fell into large wooden barrels.
It didn't take long for a small mountain of gold to be piled up.
