The Manu brothers returned to Phoenix City with a load of salt.
The purchase price of salt here is one yuan per kilogram. Traveling hundreds of miles, one kilogram of salt can only be sold for an ordinary person's day's salary, and the profit is very small.
The price of salt sold in Red Rock City, which is only a hundred miles away, is 1 silver coin per pound, but the bottom wage there is only 0.2 silver coins a day, and it takes fifteen days of work to buy one kilogram, or three pounds of salt.
But whether the profit is high or not depends mainly on what can be purchased and the business environment of the trading place.
The Manu brothers came here for Obsidian.
The quality of the obsidian I bought last time was particularly good, and the profit was higher than expected. Five kilograms were sold for a total of eight gold coins. Unfortunately, the extra profit did not turn into more goods. I left one gold coin for my family and another gold coin for hiring. An escort will escort the two to Red Rock City and the return fee is included.
The guards who can be hired with just one gold coin are not very good, so they can barely guarantee that they can win in a duel with a sharp blade. Fortunately, the big brothers on the road don't look down on a small cart of salt, so they can successfully pass the level with just a few pounds of salt.
The two took the camel beast car straight to the city warehouse to sell salt.
This time Manu's brother took the language general knowledge capsule, which was of worse quality than last time. Five silver coins could only be used for three days, which was enough.
After selling salt, we have to buy obsidian: "We want the best quality obsidian."
The guard looked at the two green skins and shook his head: "You can't afford it."
"? Isn't it five yuan per kilogram?"
"More than a hundred kilograms of high-quality stones are left in the Wangting warehouse."
"...Then help us find a beautiful piece. The best price is within two hundred yuan." Brother Manu moved his hands, but he still didn't dare to pay for it for fear of being hung up.
Obsidian is not like ordinary commodities. Its size and clarity affect its selling price. In ordinary cities, if you don't bribe the guards with something, it will basically be defective. You can't bribe here, which makes you feel a little unsure.
The guard didn't waste any time. He called a brother to help him and quickly moved out two pieces of obsidian from the warehouse, one big and one small. The big one was thirty kilograms and the small one was ten kilograms.
In fact, Brother Manu only half understands and half doesn't understand, and they don't see the merits. There is no point in asking the guards, they just pay. It is precisely because they don't understand much that they dare not go to the citizens to buy obsidian directly for fear of being cheated.
Before leaving, I have another question: "If we want to hire the Blade Clan in your city as guards, how much will it cost?"
"I don't know. I can't understand what the Blade Clan is saying. You can ask someone yourself." The guard was annoyed.
The two temporarily stored the camel beast car at the entrance of the warehouse and went to the square to find someone.
As a result, when I asked about it, the price of Mader was astronomical!
The Blade Tribe offered a price of 2.5 yuan a day, and explained that 2 yuan was the standard salary for the city guard, and 0.5 yuan was the standard subsidy for the expedition team.
The round trip takes 20 days. If you make money, you must delay enjoying it in the middle. According to the asking price of Sharp Blade, one round trip will cost you 50 yuan!
"Fifty yuan is enough to buy ten kilograms of obsidian." Brother Manu uttered something sweet, but no one else could understand what the two brothers were saying anyway.
Even if the selling price is a little lower than last time, ten kilograms of obsidian is still worth 12 gold coins, and you can hire a second-level mage. It's outrageous.
Using this quotation as a reference, if we continue to ask, even if it is lower, it will cost more than thirty yuan. The main reason is that the blade is not strong enough, and thirty yuan is more than expected.
The two brothers returned to the warehouse and simply bought obsidian with the remaining 100 yuan, leaving a small change to buy some sugar water.
The bulletin board is of course also the focus, to see if there are any products that are better than salt.
The good thing about salt is that it seems to be worth a lot of money, but the good guys on the road are not very interested in grabbing it. Ten or twenty pounds is enough for you to eat. If it is less, it will be troublesome to sell it. If there is too much, you can’t find it. to the buyer.
The two brought pen and paper and wrote down all the feasible purchase prices on the bulletin board.
The purchase price of the magic notebook is one hundred yuan. If it is a page, it is fine, but a single copy is too outrageous. Unfortunately, the Manu brothers cannot buy it.
The price of spice seeds and dried spices is also good, with dry goods ranging from 5 to 30 yuan per kilogram. The key point in the seed interview is that there are no specific regulations on the specific types of spices, only the flavor types, such as pungent, spicy, aromatic, sweet, Bitter incense, etc. There must be huge profits in this, because Red Rock City produces spices!
The bulletin board shows zero inventory, indicating that there is no trade relationship between Phoenix City and Red Rock City. Maybe there is a path for the two of them to get rich.
After recording some purchase prices, fearing that people in Red Rock City would take advantage of them, the two of them hurriedly made some precautions against thieves and prepared to leave the city.
The way to prevent thieves is to find residents who are building houses and pay some money to buy obsidian fragments they don't want. As an obsidian production area, obsidian fragments that are too small are simply garbage. They can easily cut your hands and feet when cleaning them, so you can buy them for only ten yuan. A mixture of debris and granite buried large chunks of obsidian.
Go to Red Rock City to meet up with the eager guards, and rush back to your hometown together. As for the spices in Red Rock City, make some preparations next time, otherwise something may happen again.
The hometown of the Manu brothers is called Pang Xun City. Pang Xun refers to the Lord of Piercing in the local language. He is a shadow assassin with a brilliant record. Few people have seen him. I heard that he is a dark elf.
The main population here is composed of the Qingyan tribe and the orcs of the Manu family, with a small amount of dark elves and blood elves.
Pangxun City has a very good geographical location, with mountains on one side and water on two sides. There is only one main defensive surface of land. With such a favorable geographical location, the surrounding forces have no way to attack Pangxun City. With the convenience of water transportation, Pangxun City can compete with the orc cities at the seaport. Business.
In fact, in the magical world, geographical location is not a particularly big advantage. Pangxun City can still maintain the behavior of some affiliated ethnic groups here. For example, when the orcs are attacked by the human kingdom and are at a disadvantage, they will send intelligence troops to support them in exchange for the neutral recognition of the orcs.
There is no need to worry about the human race and the demon race. The human race is rarely distributed in this world, and the demon race is mostly in the demon world. The local area is filled with descendants of exiles. It is a piece of scattered sand and everyone is in charge of their own affairs. One or two cities cannot threaten Pangxun City.
With the blessing of the river transportation line that leads directly to the sea, Pangxun City's main transit trade commodities include sea salt, dried fish, pearls, etc. The local specialties that radiate to the surrounding areas are grain, isinglass, pottery, and ironware.
The two Manu brothers rushed back to the city and went directly to a familiar magic props shop.
The owner of the Red Eye Props Shop is a female blood elf who is kind and friendly. She also develops some affordable magic props for the poor. This is where the two brothers bought their language knowledge capsule.
The owner was not there when the two came.
"Why don't you show it to me!" After a few words of conversation, the blood elf clerk became angry.
"I...we're afraid you don't know the goods."
Obsidian is not generated in any volcanic terrain zone. It is produced in very few places and is a very unsophisticated item. The two brothers decided to wait until the shop owner came.
After a few words with the store clerk, the two brothers planned to come back tomorrow. Just after taking two steps, the store owner happened to come back from outside.
"Hey, isn't this Brother Manu? What good things did you buy?" The shop owner has a high ponytail that deviates from the midline. He has an oval face and crescent-shaped eyebrows. He is wearing smart black clothes and trousers. He doesn't look like a magician at all. Like the sister next door.
"Sister Liv, we are here to sell obsidian. We plan to go back first since you are not here."
The blood elf known as Liv raised her eyebrows. She planned to go back if she wasn't here. It seems that there are more goods than last time: "That's just right. Come with me and I'll help you take a look."
He took the brothers into the backyard of the store without entering the house and inspected the goods on the spot.
Open the cloth here and use a wooden stick to pull and pull the obsidian fragments to reveal the large obsidian inside.
Liv's eyes narrowed as soon as she saw it. The source of this thing was wrong.
As far as she knew, there were only two obsidian mining sites in the entire mixed area, both of which had been developed for many years. Even if a big one occasionally came out, how could it fall into the hands of these two little guys.
But a qualified businessman should not talk too much about the source of goods. Her expression changed in a flash, and she praised: "Wow, I haven't seen such a big guy in many years."
After she finished speaking, she stretched out her left hand, and a large phantom palm appeared out of thin air, synchronized with the movement of her hand, pinched the obsidian and lifted it up for observation.
The condition is very good, the same as last time.
It would be wrong to take another small piece.
This clarity...is it really obsidian?
