Chapter 28: Mr. Seventeen, the Meeting Begins (Follow-up)
This scene is all too familiar to Aram, he had encountered it only half a month ago.
Looking at the stall owner again, wearing a mask and half-covering his face, is he not the same person who sold him 'blood qi growth potion' and 'body strengthening potion' before.
"Do you want to buy potions?"
A slightly dry voice came, and the stall owner did not recognize the person in front of him due to the camouflage used by Aram.
Even the first sentence of his mouth was exactly the same as more than half a month ago.
Aran was speechless, and an extremely embarrassing guess was born in his heart.
In order to verify, he walked to the stall, took out a pure potion casually, and gave the other party an absolutely unacceptable price as before.
What happened next was just as Aran predicted, the scenario repeated, the stall owner sternly refused, and the two bargained, but could not reach a consensus.
Then, as if inadvertently, Aran turned his attention to the 'Blood Qi Growth Elixir' and the 'Body Strengthening Elixir', and asked the other party why he wanted to refine them on the grounds that this kind of potion was too unpopular.
The stall owner had no trace of performance, and said extremely depressedly:
"Why else, unlucky, this was formulated by a body refining wizard before, and then he was attacked by a wizard hunter, and his bones, blood, and soul became commodities in the black market, and he only paid a deposit, not enough money for materials, and this business lost a lot."
Familiar words, familiar content, familiar tone, the other party's performance is almost exactly the same as more than half a month ago.
Seeing this scene, Aran still didn't understand in his heart, what the owner of the family was selling was 'blood qi growth potion' and 'body strengthening potion', as for what meditation potion, purity potion, and customers who were attacked by wizard hunters, they were all just marketing strategies.
As for the price of one hundred and thirty primary magic stones, it is indeed very cheap compared to the market price, but since people are willing to sell them, they must make a profit.
This time, Aran didn't talk nonsense, and directly offered the reserve price, "One hundred and twenty primary magic stones, I want all these twenty bottles of 'Blood Qi Growth Elixir' and twenty bottles of 'Body Strengthening Elixir', you have to agree that I will find an appraiser immediately, let's trade immediately, if you don't want to, forget it." ”
"Ah, it's only one hundred and twenty primary magic stones? It takes more than ...... materials to refine these potions," the stall owner was furious, with an expression of 'Are you kidding me?' on his face.
Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Aran turned around and left, his movements crisp and neat.
He now has a total of one hundred and twenty-four primary magic stones in his hands, which is close to the full value, and he can't continue to increase the price if he wants to, and he still has a few bottles of 'Blood Qi Growth Elixir' and 'Body Strengthening Elixir' in his hand at present, which are enough for the time being, and he doesn't need to buy them now.
Of course, Aran didn't expect the other party to agree, because even he felt that the price of one hundred and twenty primary magic stones was too outrageous, and I was afraid that no pharmacist would agree.
To his surprise, the other party agreed.
A voice full of helplessness came from behind him through gritting teeth, "Okay, one hundred and twenty primary magic stones is one hundred and twenty primary magic stones, but you have to promise me that you must not say that you bought it at this price." ”
Willing to sell it at such an outrageous price?
And the Syrians were astonished,
He looked at the stall owner and found that although the other party was gritting his teeth and looking extremely reluctant, his eyes revealed calmness, and it was obvious that one hundred and twenty primary magic stones were far from the bottom price in his heart.
This made Aran have a lot of doubts in his heart,
Forty bottles of elixir, this is not a small amount, although it is only the lowest and most unpopular body refining potion, it stands to reason that the cost of light materials is more than one hundred and twenty primary magic stones, let alone selling them at this price.
There must be a big secret about this stall owner, which involves reducing the production cost of 'blood gas growth potions' and 'body strengthening potions'.
There is not even a cost at all.
After paying the fee, the appraisal was quickly completed, and there was no problem with the forty bottles of the potion, and while Aran handed over the one hundred and twenty primary magic stones, he also put away the potion, and thus successfully completed the transaction.
"Brother, what should I call ......" Aran couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart after all.
"The name doesn't make sense, because I can make up a fake name at will......" The stall owner's hoarse voice was distant, and it seemed that he was still haunted by the transaction just now, "You can call me 'Mr. Seventeen', I prefer this number." ”
After leaving the stall, Aran suddenly laughed, not knowing whether to be happy or self-deprecating.
Originally, I thought that buying twenty bottles of 'Body Strengthening Elixir' and twenty bottles of 'Blood Qi Growth Elixir' for one hundred and thirty primary magic stones was a big advantage, but I didn't expect that people would be willing to sell one hundred and twenty primary magic stones at a lower price.
Sure enough, none of the people who can mingle in the wizarding world are simple.
Of course
Aran didn't feel annoyed in his heart, as the stall owner said before, if these potions were put in a big store, they would cost at least two hundred primary magic stones, and the knight's cultivation just needed a large number of body refining elixirs, so whether it was one hundred and twenty primary magic stones or one hundred and thirty primary magic stones, he could be regarded as earning.
As for snooping on the stall owner's secrets?
Aran never thought about it, nor was he interested, because secrets meant turmoil, trouble, and danger, and with the golden finger that could travel through the 'knight's world', as long as he didn't get involved in the risk, a strong rise was almost predictable.
This kind of thing that can be dangerous, of course, is as far away as possible.
Today's wizard materials are all gone, and the magic stones in his hands are all spent, Aran naturally wanders here, finds a time to leave the market, and unloads the camouflage potion on the way.
This time he was lucky not to meet the Fang City Hunters.
By the time we got back to the ghetto, it was already half past four in the afternoon, less than an hour before Vlad's invitation.
Aran originally thought that he would first take a rough look at the 'Convergence and Transformation of the Wind Chain Primary Spell Module' and the formula of the 'Primary Spiritual Elixir', but the time was too rushed, and he didn't want to attract the attention of others because of his tardiness, so he had no choice but to run aground temporarily.
However, for the sake of safety, he still put the 'Book of Wizard Knowledge' and the 'Recipe for Primary Spiritual Elixirs', as well as all the 'Blood Qi Growth Potions' and 'Body Strengthening Potions' in a secret place in the knight's world, so that even if a thief sneaks into his home, there will be no loss.
By the time he had done this, it was already 4:38 p.m., and Aram left the house, walked to the door of the next room, and raised his hand to knock on it, but there was a slight feeling in his heart.
It used to be the residence of old Charlie, but he is no longer there.
At this moment,
The door suddenly opened, and a beautiful girl with chestnut hair and purple eyes walked out, she frowned, and said with a slightly embarrassed expression,
"Aram, you're here too?"
