378. Shining Sabre

This time Surdak transported nearly a thousand pounds of sulfur ore to the city of Halanza, and received nearly forty gold coins in payment from Manager Joey of the White Elephant Trading Company.

I didn't expect this batch of sulfur mines to be so valuable. The sulfur mines in the rocky area of ​​Pu Bao Mountain can still be mined for at least two months. In addition, there is a whole warehouse of inventory in the village. These sulfur mines cost at least seven to eight thousand yuan.

Pounds, these sulfur mines in the rocky area alone will bring an income of nearly 500 gold coins to Wall Village.

Joey asked the waiter to put the whole pieces of sulfur ore into wooden boxes and store them in the warehouse of the trading company. Then he invited Suldak to the rest area nearby, and a female clerk in the trading company brought Suldak to the store.

After serving a cup of black tea, Joey said to Suldak excitedly:

“Knight Surdak, if you still have sulfur ore, you can send it to me at any time!”

This is the trading area of ​​the White Elephant Trading Company. Many cargo owners trade goods with the employees of the company here. There are always people coming in and out of the warehouse, but it seems orderly and does not feel chaotic at all.

A waiter came over, asked Joey to sign a piece of parchment, and then left in a hurry. Joey then continued to say to Suldak: "The market for sulfur mines this year is much better than before. At this time, shipments will be

You will earn 30% more than before. Maybe after spring, the price will drop back. If you have stockpiled goods, I suggest you sell them at this time."

Suldak nodded and said to Joey: "I have arranged for people to gradually transport the sulfur ore to the city of Halanza. By the way, Manager Joey, have you exchanged my batch of magic herbs?"

Joey said with a wry smile: "Well, there are people asking for information almost every day, but no one is willing to exchange for magic herbs. The war in various planes of the Green Empire is relatively tight this year. Magic herbs have been resource controlled by the great nobles.

There are fewer magic herbs circulating in the market than before. For the time being, I have only heard that a batch of magic herbs will arrive in Halanza City in the near future. The Dale magician is ready to see if they can replace some of the magic herbs you need."

“Manager Joey, if possible, I would like to revoke this commission.” Suldak hesitated and said to Manager Joey.

 Manager Joey looked at Suldak in surprise, and then said: "None of these magic herbs have been traded. The cancellation is very simple, but it requires the approval of the Daler magician..."

 …

Magician Daler sat in front of a square table. His table was filled with magic items that needed to be identified. He took off the monocle on the bridge of his nose, rubbed his forehead with his hand, and then sat on the chair opposite.

Surdak asked: "Knight Surdak, are you ready to give up the exchange for magic herbs?"

“Yes, Magician Dale.” Surdak smiled apologetically at Magician Dale.

"Don't have any psychological burden, this is a common thing in business." Magician Daler replied gently, and then asked Surdak: "So... you want to get those magic herbs back,

Or do you want to exchange it for something else?"

He had no use for this batch of magical herbs, Surdak. Without thinking, he said, "Sell it and exchange it for some gold coins or something."

Magician Daler rubbed his forehead again and said to Surdak: "There are many things that cannot be purchased with gold coins, such as many rare magic items. If you are not short of gold coins for the time being, I advise you.

Don’t do this, it’s easy for you to exchange magic herbs for gold coins, but if you want to use gold coins to buy magic herbs, you can hardly buy any valuable magic herbs in the magic market of Helensa.”

“You mean you want me to exchange some magic crystals for you?” Surdak asked.

Magician Daler shook his head and said to Surdak: "The value of magic crystal has been depreciating recently, and there will be a certain downward trend in the future. It is not wise to change the value of magic crystal."

Seeing that Surdak was a little confused, Magician Dale pushed a black devil leather wristband on the square table in front of Surdak. Surdak also peeled off the black devil from the devil on the battlefield.

Anyone who knows leather can immediately recognize that this is a magic skin wristband made of evil ghost skin, and there is even a trace of mana fluctuations on it.

“Are these bracers made of black demon skin?” Surdak asked.

Magician Dalle nodded and explained to Surdak: "Right now... the market for magic items is constantly rising. I suggest you start with primary magic potions, magic weapons, and magic pattern structures.

I will ask someone to calculate the value of this batch of magic herbs for you."

 After speaking, Magician Dale glanced at Manager Joey who was standing aside.

Joey quickly opened the account book in his hand, found Suldak's registration page, and then quickly read out a set of data: "Thirteen Starlight Cattails are worth eighty silver coins each, and three Devil's Grass are worth eighty silver coins each.

The seven nightmare vines are worth seventy-six silver coins, each of the seven nightmare vines is worth ninety-two silver coins, and the whole bundle of white ring vines is worth twenty gold coins. If all these magic herbs are exchanged for gold coins, they are worth thirty-nine gold coins."

After hearing this, Magician Dalle nodded slightly and said to Suldak: "You can almost buy a basic magic pattern structure, which is both value-preserving and practical. Now the price of magic potions has almost gone crazy. Compared with the four

It has increased at least three times compared to a year ago, and it is estimated that it is about to reach its peak."

In Suldak's opinion, thirty-nine gold coins could probably be exchanged for seven magic crystals. He asked doubtfully: "Didn't I say that a magic pattern structure is worth hundreds of magic crystals? What should I do?

Might be able to afford it!”

When Magician Daler heard what Surdak said, he laughed 'haha' and said: "It seems that you must have some misunderstandings about the magic pattern structure. A hundred magic crystals can almost buy a complete set of primary magic pattern structure.

Complete sets of magic pattern constructions have complementary attributes, and some even have set attributes to be worth the price. The magic pattern construction customized by the inscription master will have a very high degree of fit, and will have a doubled premium.

"

"Actually, the primary magic pattern structure in spare parts is not as expensive as you think. A primary magic pattern structure is worth almost a dozen magic crystals. Joey, take Knight Surdak to the magic on the second floor.

Take a walk around the item trading area, if you still insist on exchanging gold coins after going around for a while, it won’t be too late to exchange them for gold coins when the time comes!”

Da Le ordered to Manager Joey on the side, and after speaking, he lowered his head. He put on his monocle again and began to identify the magic items on the table. The fastest update PC version::/

  Manager Joey replied very respectfully: "Okay. Mr. Dale Magician."

Joy walked downstairs with Surdak. On the way, he even secretly looked at Surdak a few times and asked tentatively: "Knight Surdak, are you an old acquaintance with Magician Dale?"

Suldak didn’t understand why Joey asked this, but just nodded slightly and said: “Magic Daler helped me twice before!”

Joy smiled kindly at Surdak.

The lobby on the second floor of the White Elephant Trading Company was filled with various notice boards. When Surdak walked downstairs, there were already waiters from the trading company clearing out Surdak's magical herbal trading information one by one on the notice board.

This move by the waiter immediately caused some guests in the lobby on the second floor to stir up a commotion. Someone lowered their voice and said:

“Look, orders 1579-1582 have been traded. I said that all magic herbs are in hot demand this year. Maybe they will rise even more in the future...”

“How much more can it go up? How much does a bottle of secondary healing potion cost now? How many people do you think can still afford the potion on the battlefield?”

“This is the market situation, and no one can do anything about it,” someone whispered.

Suldak and Manager Joey walked through the corridor and walked into a magic shop. When the waiters in the magic shop saw Manager Joey, they did not come over. This magic shop is very large and probably occupies the underground trading market.

The upper floor covers more than half of the area, and the business store is filled with a dazzling array of magic items. This place is larger than any magic shop in Helensa that Surdak has been to.

Suldak stared at the products on the shelves on both sides of the store. Manager Joey pointed to a row of light brown light leather armors on the shelves and said: "These are spiny tail crystal lion leather armors. Each piece of leather armor is engraved with

The magic pattern is currently the best-selling magic pattern structure in the trading company. This one is engraved with the 'Elegant Wind' magic pattern, which can increase the speed to a certain extent."

Suldak remembered that Darcy Christie wore a piece of leather armor of this style, so he asked curiously: "How many magic crystals are needed to construct the magic pattern of this spiny-tailed crystal lion?"

“You can buy it with twenty-three magic crystals.” Joey replied without thinking.

Suldak had a black line on his forehead and asked Manager Joey: "Is there anything cheaper?"

Manager Joey patiently took out a pair of blue leather boots from the shelf and introduced: "These are blue deerskin boots. We like to call them deer boots. The blue deerskin itself has ice resistance.

The seal is carved with endurance magic lines, which can increase running speed. Many hunters will buy a pair of these running shoes. It is said that if you wear them, you can catch up with wild boars in the forest..."

 Seeing that Suldak was not interested, his eyes had already spotted the magic scrolls on another row of shelves, and Joey just swallowed the price he was about to say.

To be honest, Surdak didn't mean to divert his attention. He was actually shocked by the magic scrolls on the wooden shelf. Bundles of elementary magic scrolls were piled on the shelf, making the shelf look like a tall wall.

The thick walls are filled with scrolls.

"Fire-gathering magic scroll, water-gathering magic scroll, hydrotherapy magic scroll, fireball scroll, magic arrow, ice arrow, wind speed... We have quite a complete range of magic scrolls here, but among these magic scrolls, only

The first two are suitable for you to use." Joey said as he pulled out a fire-gathering scroll from the shelf.

Suldak did not take it to check. This kind of magic scroll is not uncommon and can be found everywhere in the magic shops in Halanza City.

Suldak walked up to a metal plate engraved with runes. In fact, he had seen something similar.

Joey took the initiative to introduce: "This is the 'Fire Gathering Magic Rune Board'. This kind of rune board consumes magic crystal fragments. As long as you buy one, it can be used for a long time. Many young nobles no longer have burning furnaces in their homes."

Now that the golden oak has grown, just put a metal rune plate in the fireplace and you won't have to worry about lighting a fire all winter long."

 “How much is this worth?” Surdak asked curiously:

“One gold coin and twenty silver coins.” Joey lowered his voice and said to Suldak.

“This thing is pretty good!” Although Suldak had no intention of buying it, he praised it casually.

Continuing to walk into the magic shop, Surdak saw a neat row of wands hanging on the shelves. Behind the wands were some bookshelves, which contained some magic books that were so heavy that they could almost kill someone. In fact, Surdak was very

I want to open a magic book and see what's inside, but the magic book has to be made so thick.

In addition to wands and magic books, Surdak finally saw some books and looked at the classification introductions on the bookshelf. They seemed to be combat skills, sword skills, martial arts, shadow training, trap skills, marksmanship, archery, physical skills, etc.

Waiting for these books, which were placed on the shelves in categories, Manager Joey introduced to Suldak a number of skill books, such as army-breaking tactics, flame fist, cross sword style, spear interception, chain archery, etc.

wait.

“The skills taught in the War College are always inferior to those in these books.”

Seeing that Suldak had no intention of staying, Joey continued to lead him inside. There was a row of long counters with a thick layer of felt on them, and handfuls of various shapes were placed on the felt.

Originally, Surdak already had a very handy Craftsman's Sword. He had no intention of buying a weapon. The standard weapons issued by the guard battalion were actually very good.

But when he saw these sophisticated magic weapons on the counter of the store, among these weapons, a saber exuded a faint magic wave. Surdak stopped in front of the saber. The saber was very exquisitely made.

The entire blade was full of streamlines. He picked up the saber with cyan magic patterns on the blade from the counter and glanced at Joey.

Joy didn't even say the name of the saber, so he could only look at the clerk behind the counter with a questioning look.

The clerk came over and explained: "Manager, this saber is called 'Shining', and it is a recent work by Master Lancelot Clapham. However, although this saber is a magic weapon, it has a few minor flaws...

That’s why it’s placed here!”

“What happened to the saber?” Joey asked calmly.

"Manager Joey, the magic pattern array on this saber is said to be a 'low light illumination technique'. It has no other effect when used. The only effect is that it can be used at night without lighting a torch..." The clerk said with a look on his face.

He explained awkwardly: "But this is not its fault. Master Lancelot Clapham made it like this in order to cater to some nobles. It was just a gem base inlaid with magic crystal fragments when it was made.
