Chapter 1169 Do you think everyone can find earth elements to buy gems?
How much is a sapphire that is clear, transparent, pure, flawless, and the size of a pigeon egg worth?
The answer is, priceless. This kind of gem is even enough to be inlaid on the king's crown and scepter. It has been passed down from generation to generation and will have the name of this gem in history.
If you have to estimate it, probably you can't buy it with 1 million gold coins?
How much is a sapphire of the same size that is turbid, opaque, and has obvious cracks on it worth?
Anyway, Gretel saw the magicians in the Eagle Country appraising such a gem at no more than a thousand gold coins.
1000 times price difference.
Moreover, the former is still priceless but not marketable.
Make a lot of money!
Gretel immediately took out the space bag, touched 20 gems, lined them up, and asked the earth element to pick 10. Observe carefully, the earth element chose not the largest one, nor the best color, but the most beautiful one.
special--
In other words, the earth element lord's most urgent need at this stage is to try his best to experience various types of gems.
Gretel silently kept this matter in mind and squatted beside him, accompanying the earth element who was busy refining ore for a day. That night, he quietly asked Archmage Baierbo:
"Brother, why don't you teach the earth elements and let them help purify gems?"
This is such a big way to make money! If this method is popularized and everyone knows it, we can get a bunch of low-quality gems, give them to the earth element for purification, and then sell them to the Glorious Holy See, and then plunder their wealth in large quantities.
and gems——
A few cycles back and forth can wipe out their wealth!
Archmage Baierbo was shocked when he looked at the crystal clear and bright sapphire in his hand. After hearing him explain the cause and effect, he sighed and raised his hand to knock on his forehead:
"Do you think everyone is you?!"
"Well……"
Gretel covered his head and looked at his senior brother eagerly. Cerira sat next to him, looking at the gem in Gretel's hand eagerly, and listened to the lecture with Gretel:
"First of all, do you think everyone is like you and the earth element likes you?"
The tasks for most earth elements, or most elemental creatures, when they come to the main material world are simple: work, get paid, and leave. Never say a word to a magician unless necessary.

If you can chat with the earth element for a few words, you have defeated 90% of the magicians; if you can ask the earth element to do extra work like Gretel, you have defeated at least 99% of the magicians.
"Secondly, do you think that any earth element can do this kind of work? At least an earth element lord summoned by a high-level mage can learn this skill!"
Yes, the ratio of high-level mages to the total number of mages is very rare. Once these two factors are superimposed, basically, the possibility of using earth element purified gems as a way to make money is very pitiful.
"Again, even if you learn this, the probability of summoning the same earth element next time is pitifully small. If that earth element doesn't like you and signs a contract with you, you will have to work harder next time to summon a new one.
teach him……"
"Then, why don't they learn from each other?"
Gretel asked curiously. Archmage Baierbo gave Gretel a confused look:
"The elemental world is very large. Elemental creatures, especially elemental lords of the same level, live very far away from each other. Moreover, the elemental creatures' concept of time is also different from ours -"
"Why is it different?"
"An earth element lord buried himself in the earth for a thousand years and just took a nap."
Therefore, thousands of years may have passed for a piece of knowledge to spread from one earth element lord to another earth element lord? Gretel thought for a moment:
This is a good thing!
This means that, in a short period of time, converting gems will become my own business!
Imagine carrying a Horadric Cube with you... a broken gem becomes a cracked gem... a split gem becomes a whole gem... a whole gem becomes a flawless gem... a flawless gem becomes a perfect gem...
Well, not to mention enriching Cerela’s jewelry box, that’s more than enough!
Gretel made up his mind and turned around to find Illidian. He was just a level 5 spellcaster and could not summon the earth element of much use. He was working hard and shouldered the responsibility of bargaining with the temple:
"This is not enough at all! - Precious metals and gems are the favorites of the earth element, and they cannot be used for other things! Don't count those alpaca cloaks and the like, the earth element does not want those things!"
"Lack of gold and silver? Lack of precious stones? If the big temple is lacking, are other branches of the temple also lacking? The royal palace is also lacking, and are the nobles also lacking?"
"It's not that we need it, it's your Sun God that needs it! Your Sun God said that the danger is approaching and she wants to repair her injuries as soon as possible! - Without the Sun God, you want to see the king be killed again and the capital be plundered again.
Once?"
"What? Blood sacrifice? - Your Sun God said that in order to completely cure his injury, more than half of the people of the kingdom must be sacrificed in blood! By then, without the people, the nobles will farm by themselves? Go mining by themselves?"
"What is the most important thing? Think about it clearly! As long as the Sun God lasts forever, gold, silver, gems, and wealth can always be accumulated slowly! If the Sun God is gone, or if the people are gone, you are all finished!"
It has to be said that Yudian, who has long been responsible for patrolling the forest, teaching the rainforest indigenous people, and foreign exchange and procurement responsibilities, is still a bit good at talking. Supplemented by the coercion of the Half-Step Legend, he claims to go to the sun when he disagrees.
God’s style——
The elves won a great victory.
The Temple of the Sun was retreating steadily.
Gold, silver, pearls, shells, conches, various gems, and all kinds of Warcraft materials were piled in piles, forming a hill in front of Idian.
"Yurdian! Yudian! Give me some gems!"
Gretel took out a thumb-sized ruby and shook it in front of Idian:
"Here, help me replace some gems that are not in good condition! It doesn't matter if they are uneven or cracked, but they need to be big! They need to be rich in variety!"
"I use these gems of good quality as your reward!"
"Hey, you can just take whatever you want!" Yudian only glanced at it and turned away, continuing to sort and make books:
"These gems of different quality are worthless, so just grab a handful of them!"
Gretel rolled up a large box of gems and went back. Of course, you can't just rely on the earth element to have a good impression of him, so you can force others to do it, and you have to have something else in exchange:
"Look, to see clearly the structure inside this gemstone, you can use a microscope...high brightness observation...low brightness observation...reflected light...you can also add a polarizer..."
"You see, the elements in gems can be tested like this... The most convenient way is to burn the gem powder, there are several different flame reactions..."
The earth element wrote them down one by one, and took away the microscope provided by Grete, saying it was very useful. Then, he helped Grete convert a bunch of large and small gems.
On the tenth day after everyone from Gretel returned to the capital of the Sun King, all mining and refining projects were completed. One hundred thousand tons of borax and one hundred thousand tons of lead blocks were piled neatly in the square, waiting for transshipment.
In the mansion next to the square, Grete took out a box full of gems. From the size of soybeans, to the size of broad beans, to the size of pigeon eggs, each one was colorful and crystal clear. He pushed it forward and sent it to Serila.
before:
"Come on, come on, Cerela, all our rewards are here! You can keep the jewelry if you want, or you can sell one or two of them for gold, it's up to you!"
"Inlaid with jewelry..." Serila put down one piece and touched another, her eyes sparkling:
"Aren't the gold and silver used for inlaying jewelry, as well as the matching small gemstones, all added separately? How can you sell the gemstones?"
