"Willian, you know better than me about the production of magic items. What kind of magic level is needed to achieve such a makeup box?"

After walking out of the shop and bypassing two stalls that had just begun to set up their own goods, Edward suddenly spoke.

"The magic above is not profound, but if all consumables are endless and not easily damaged, you must at least have the ability of the three rings to cast. However, as a whole, it is incompetent to not be close to or even exceed the ability of a high-level mage. In order to minimize the loss of mental power, relatively powerful power is also necessary..."

The authentic mage apprentice was stunned for a moment, then pondered: "However, the carving on this makeup box is very fine and should not be shaped by magic. Because the marks are obvious, they should be an old worker with 20 or 30 years of carving experience, so it is not ruled out that they are divided and cooperated."

Edward nodded.

In fact, if you are serious, the craftsmanship of this makeup box may not be seen frequently even in Romantis where the mage is walking all over the ground - or there may be better products than this, but there will definitely not be so many in quantity.

The production of magic props is not as simple as pouring into raw materials and then taking out things. The principle of magic emphasizes equivalent exchange or using magical craftsmanship to shape some simple objects, which only consumes the energy of the magic net, but the enchanted props consume the ability of the magician himself, which permanently solidifies a magic into an item. This constant art object requires no ordinary power.

This is why in this world with magic, the convenience of magic props can only be enjoyed by a few people. The magician's magic power is so difficult that even if you can exchange money, no one will be willing to dedicate their strength to such meaningless fancy props.

Plus the strength of armor and weapons manufacturing... If they really had contact with the dwarf blacksmith... no, even if it was just such productivity, it would be enough. Considering its power and several other clues... the connection between Chatulan really inadvertently brought him a big surprise.

Behind this store, there is a complete industrial chain...

This is really a mouth-watering thing.

"I said Edward, what did you get something? I think you came for this thing from the beginning?"

Miss Lisa's eyes stopped at two stalls that had not yet been opened, and then diverted her attention: "It seems like it was the chess piece golem that you got last time? What's the connection? However, you looked so ugly. Why show off anything to a small shop owner?"

"Purpose...well, I can also say that, but in fact, the biggest gain is the shop I just did." Edward smiled and did not mention Paturan- otherwise the young lady might have to see it, but if the last scene happened, it would take a lot of effort to settle it.

"Hmm? Taking advantage is not enough. Do you still want to take over that guy's store?"

Miss Lisa stared at him for a long time, then rolled her eyes wide to express her contempt: "He doesn't look like he wants to sell the store, or are you going to use that trick to control others? Then why are you talking nonsense to him? We don't have to spend money if we do it directly? One thousand three hundred platinum coins are a lot of money."

"What the hell do you think I am?"

"Of course it's the robber's leader? Oh. No, you are a ecstasy robber! Or a pervert..."

"...Forget it. I said, my eldest lady, have you noticed it? His scarf?" Edward couldn't help but glared at her angrily, and then pointed out an important question to get rid of the mischievous troubles.

"scarf?"

The half-elf shook her head, but she obviously knew that the psychic warlock would not raise a meaningless question for no reason: "It seems to be purple, with stripes, not right..."

"Hey, all purple three diamond patterns, the badge of the purple school!"

The clear memory made the little lady scream in surprise, then looked around reflexively and lowered her voice: "This guy is a member of the Mixed Race Association? But why did I never see him? Damn, if I had known that he was a Mixed Race Association, I should have asked him to give him a cost price! Damn..."

"Relax a little... you haven't seen him, but he must know you. You didn't notice that the look he looked at you was completely different from looking at others. Moreover, he would deliberately dodge his conversation with you..." Edward explained:

"Edward, what do you mean? Do you suspect he is..."

Since she recognized the other party's identity, Edward, who also has the identity of a hybrid president, certainly did not need to remind her. She followed the procedure and directly contacted him... Now she pretended not to know him... This recognition made the half-elf lady nervous suddenly. But then, she shook her head again:

"Not it, maybe he is a low-level member who has just joined the Purple Clothing Sect recently. Maybe he hasn't seen me before?"

"Do you think the Purple Clothing Sect will pay so little attention to it and send a low-level member to manage such a big deal? If so, then congratulations, because the mixed-race will be rich enough to rival the country. Now we don't have to worry about these trivial matters. Sending money directly can have a great impact. What else do I have to do? Xiaobiangua."

"I'm not stupid! Also... it's possible that this guy is not the owner of this store at all?" The little lady bulged her eyes in discontent. Although she had already admitted the other party's statement in her heart, after thinking about it, she still caught a seemingly flaw to refute.

But without Edward speaking, Dahenny had already chuckled and exposed her mercilessly: "Someone said that big breasts are brainless, but I think your existence really perfectly refutes this sentence. If he was not the owner, could he make the decision on such a big business? The owner of this store is too generous. The transaction of thousands of platinum coins can be signed directly by outsiders? Not to mention half the discount of the middle decision..."

"Shut up the rotten melon!"

"Okay. Think about it, if it is an ordinary clerk, what should he do to ask the price?" The sharp voice made people look at him. Edward had to shake his hand to stop the royal sister from quarreling with Loli in habit: "Does he usually make a detailed introduction in advance and then quote the price? In fact, he did this for armor and things sold to me, but when he saw you, he only told you the price of 300 platinum coins."

After a pause, he explained in detail: "And, the discount he gave me afterwards was actually more than half. It can be seen that he deliberately quoted high prices at the beginning, or wanted to stop trading with these people. But he was so hiding that he used the discount to offset the money later, because since this kind of makeup box can be produced in large quantities, I may get the price I bought by others. If there is any dispute arise, it will definitely be something he doesn't want to see."

Lisa nodded and shook her head again. She seemed to be confused. But she didn't question any more... Instead, Little Ryan, who had been silent, spoke. "But Mr. Edward, you can judge just by this point. The clerk is... a person with ulterior motives. Isn't it a bit arbitrary?"

Edward turned his eyes to him and shook his head slightly:

"In fact, he exposed many flaws, although they were all unintentional... For example, his purchase channels were very wide, from the southern snake lizards to the dwarf's weapons, they all claimed to be prepared. Especially the shops that can make magic weapons should have a hard backstage, but when I asked him if he was familiar with the lord, he said it had nothing to do with it... Judging from the style of the snake lizard skin and armor, those in front of him were not bragging, so why did he tell me that he was just a small business, it didn't matter?"

"Maybe, it's because he is afraid that someone you know will take the opportunity to cut his price?"

This statement is obviously not that valuable. Even the little nobleman who said it once shook his head... On this continent, is there a merchant who can be related to the nobles but does not express it himself? At least he has never seen it before, not to mention that the identity of a wizard is not necessarily lower than that of a genuine nobleman, so why should he use this relationship to reduce the price? And the other party is anxious to clear it up?

"The main problem is that this store has invested a lot, but the business is not prosperous. I have seen all their goods, including magic items, or armor and other related things. This kind of high-end goods is usually hard to buy, and from the decoration inside, they are also engaged in big business. In this way, if he doesn't know some of the duke's men, he will probably have been eliminated long ago. You have to remember that shopping malls are like battlefields, which cannot tolerate several failures. Especially decision-making mistakes."

"There are some other small problems. Look, if I were the owner, then when I saw me find this thing from the statue just now, I would definitely discuss buying the Paturan back. After all, such magic props are too rare, and the light of spirit alone is scary enough. Even if the possibility is extremely small, we should try to recover the losses. This is the most common quality of an experienced businessman. That guy seems to be impossible to be a novice here, but he has not done so. If he either knows my character, he is subconsciously preparing to end this business quickly."

"But this is not enough to determine that he is a mixed-race spy..." Little Ryan secretly looked at the face of the 'master' who was not much older than him. He opened his mouth until he was sure that he was not angry, but his voice was infinitely close to stuttering.

So the psychic warlock shook his head - in fact, he really liked the spirit of this little guy, but the preconceived kindness in the other party's way of thinking was indeed not to his taste: "Yes, anything may not be 100%, so I just need to pay attention to him..." After thinking about it, he decided not to bother with this issue anymore.

"You are so amazing... Lord Edward. Or, only a wise man like you can truly become a qualified lord, right?" After thinking about it, Little Ryan suddenly sighed.

"The inferior wise man shows off his wisdom, the middle wise man gathers the wisdom of others, and the higher wise man discovers the wisdom of others. This is the famous saying of the great sage Karenji."

"Edward's words are always difficult to understand... Forget it, that person. Don't worry about it. Anyway, if Edward makes an idea, we will just listen to him and do it directly," Miss Half-Elf waved her hand with a big bag and said, "So master, how do we deal with it next?"

"Wait." Edward replied: "But I will find a way to monitor them, so it doesn't prevent us..."

"So that means, we can start buying things, right?"

...

It is indeed a very tiring job to accompany girls to shop... for ordinary people, it is nothing like a battle.

The market in the rose block of Gushan City is of course different from the one near the city gate. Except for the scattered vendors, most of the essence is still concentrated in the shops on both sides of the street. Of course, the scale of this kind of shopping street is not very large. But if you underestimate the points invested in girls' shopping talent, then you will be a big mistake!

Beautiful cloth and silk, small toys, and all kinds of shoes...especially shoes.

Cloth, silk, calfskin, special plant-woven, flat-bottomed, high-heeled, pointed and round-headed... There are many gadgets that they actually want to come at all, but they can't put it down. They spend countless time bargaining, and finally give up at the prompt. Then they can't help picking up again. Edward is already very annoyed. But they can't help but repeat it thirty or fifty times.

Yes, they... at the beginning, they were just Miss Lisa's solo show, but gradually, the half-elf girl Shalina became her reference object for granted. Finally, even Daheni participated in this process and began to try to pick and cut prices with great enthusiasm.

Fortunately, Edward, who owns the space bag, doesn't need to carry the big and small pockets behind him, otherwise, just walking and stopping like this will definitely make the waiting time particularly boring and lengthy.

In fact, for a psychic warlock, ordinary people's concealment and tricks are meaningless. The tentacles of thinking that wander around him allow him to capture almost every subtle idea, especially when people are discussing, all the secrets will float to the surface of their thinking because of the active thinking.

Unobstructed at a glance.

However, Edward was not involved. Most of the time, he was just appreciating all this - Edward vaguely remembered a theory that the actual function of this process was to stimulate the temporal lobe of a woman? Or organs like the pituitary gland... let the brain secrete more endorphins, thereby increasing a sense of excitement and comfort - this is a privilege that only women have.

Sometimes, romance and waste are equal words. Giving those small vendors some space to survive is also considered to be knowledgeable and tactful, right?

From another perspective, Gushan City has rich heritage and enough excitement. Wandering in such an ancient big city can indeed fascinate a person who sees it for the first time.

In short, in these meaningless repetitions, the time of two hourglass has passed without realizing it.

Before we knew it, the sun had quietly passed through the sky.

"Hey, Edward, it's almost afternoon, why is there still no movement? Don't say that you didn't watch him carefully to accompany us? It's not okay to shirke responsibility..."

"My lady, is this level of caution necessary? Moreover, he was not worried about anything. If he just saw you, he became panicked and asked by himself, there would be no need for these guys to get together again." Edward smiled, but he was confirming the other person's value in his heart.

Since this guy has a certain strength, it is obviously impossible for him to be unknown in the other party's organization.

Since he has paid attention to his opponent, of course Edward cannot leave some surveillance methods without leaving behind.

When the noon sunlight gradually turned to the west, no one had entered the small magic shop. So the middle-aged man who had been curled up behind the counter seemed to have finally exhausted his last bit of patience. He stood up and closed the door of the shop casually.

So, the light flashed slightly, and the original door outside the small shop turned into a window frame.

After doing the cover-up work, he got up and walked out of the shop through another small door and began to walk through the small street behind him.

The streets were narrow and long. After a few rounds, the man walked into a particularly dark corner and came to the back of a shop similar to a blacksmith shop. This messy corner seemed to be used to pile up some purchases to prepare the materials for the refurbishment. A circle of fences was filled with rags—breaked giant swords, holes, and tattered armor with few arms and legs. It exuded a disgusting smell of rust.

But the man climbed over the low wall without hesitation and drilled into the wooden shed that was almost collapsed in the middle.

After a pause, he sprinkled a handful of shining powder.

The powder slowly melted like water vapor... Then, a lightning burst out, and the blue-white light flashed in this small space, and the original scenery began to be replaced by another illusion.

The man reached out and pressed on an iron door that appeared behind him. There seemed to be a few strange handles. When some of them were torn off, a dark hole opened on the ground.

But he didn't notice that since he entered this corridor, the shadow of the little thing standing in the dead corner of his sight had disappeared into the air again with the slight shaking of the light and shadow.
