Called a dark alley, in fact, their current sales behavior in Castle of Thorns is no longer much different from ordinary stores.
There are vendors everywhere who are shouting and using strange words to attract tourists, and they are working hard to sell various products on their stalls. Among them were natural wonders that they could not identify, antiques from ancient times, and even some just weird-looking stones, nuts, branches, and the like.
Of course, the most popular ones are the various leather armors made from animal skins, the mails and chain armors unearthed from certain expeditions, and the potions with various magical effects made by alchemists. The number of people in this world who cannot break through the restrictions of advanced professions accounts for the vast majority of professionals. Whether it is to break through the barriers of advanced professions or to accumulate wealth and create better opportunities for future generations, these adventurers have never been Will miss any opportunity to gain wealth.
As long as you have enough wealth, you can naturally collect more effective tempering methods, making it easier to break through the barriers of advanced professions. There are even magical potions that can help professionals break through barriers, or collect items urgently needed by evil gods and demons. It is not impossible to exchange them for direct advancement, but the risk and effort are greater.
Therefore, even unorganized low-level adventurers are willing to risk their lives and form temporary adventure teams with other adventurers of equal strength to go to dangerous wilderness and primitive jungles to collect various items. Quest items to complete various tasks hanging in the adventurer hall and tavern hall.
At the same time, many adventurers did not dare to take too many risks, but also wanted to accumulate more wealth, so they would think of using other means to achieve their goals. In the end, a certain scale of craftsmen class was formed, but the quality was uneven, including Leather armor making, chain mail making, weapon forging, potion making, even spell scroll making, etc. Because more complete production techniques are mastered by large organizations and temples, many of the production techniques mastered by these craftsmen at the bottom were discovered by themselves or knowledge gained from ancient ruins.
Compared with adventurers selling all kinds of items to monopoly chambers of commerce at low prices, the objects made by these low-level craftsmen may not be as good as the items sold by professional chambers of commerce and temples, but they also have their own advantages, just the same price. The low price and good quality are enough to attract countless adventurers.
"Hey. Brother, do you want to take a look at what I have at home? This set of scorpion-tailed tiger leather armor is enough to withstand a normal attack from an advanced professional. It can also effectively defend against poison spell attacks."
The arrival of Allen and Hua She attracted the attention of many sellers in the dark alley, and they all sold their goods to them. No, a kobold stopped Allen and the others, holding up a leather armor with yellow and white markings and some rough hair remaining, showing it to Allen and the others.
Allen had already planned to buy leather armor, but he was not annoyed when he was blocked by the other party. He stroked this item, which was at least somewhat leather armor-like, and looked at it carefully.
The quality of the leather armor itself is good. Scorpion-tailed tigers are common beasts in the Gele Mountains, and their strength is comparable to that of ordinary advanced professionals. For most low-level adventurers, they are not easy to provoke. Lord. But for the leather armor that was taken out by the kobold now, it was obvious that the person fighting the manticore didn't avoid the manticore's hide at that time. The spandex only took a cursory glance and discovered the lining of the leather armor. There are many marks of weapon scratches on it.
Although the scorpion-tailed tiger skin that is not completely preserved still has good defensive power when it is made into leather armor, its defensive power has been weakened a lot compared to the intact hide. I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve what the dog head said. It's said to resist the ordinary attacks of advanced warriors.
"How much does this leather armor cost?"
Although he knew that this leather armor was suspected of being fake, Allen still couldn't help but ask, after all, this scorpion-tailed tiger is equivalent to the strength of low-level advanced professions. Compared with other leather armors made from ordinary beasts, its hide is better. More or less more advantageous.
"Brother, you are discerning. For the sake of our fate, I will give you a discount on this leather armor and charge you 10 gold coins. How about it?"
When the kobold saw Allen asking about the price, his eyes became even more focused. He put on a bold and generous look and gave a price. From what he expected, it seemed like Allen had taken a big advantage.
Allen's eyes darkened when he heard this. Although he didn't know much about the value of goods in Thorn Castle, he still knew the general value of the items he needed. Otherwise, he would not dare to take Flower Snake to the dark alleys of North City. Purchased from China.
"Forget it, you obviously don't mean to sell it."
Allen retracted his hands and prepared to bypass the kobold and go deeper into the dark alley.
"Hey, Brother Bugbear, don't leave. The price is negotiable. If you are interested in buying it, just tell me a price and I'll see if I can make a move."
Seeing that Allen was about to leave, the kobold quickly reached out to hold Allen, not letting him go.
"Let go."
A fierce light flashed in Allen's eyes, and the scorching eyes made the kobold's heart tremble. He hurriedly let go of Allen's wrist, but still did not give up blocking Allen's way. He kept blocking Allen's way while twisting his body.
"Okay, seeing how powerful the goblin brothers are, this is our first time to do business and make friends. I'll give you 2 gold coins for this leather armor, and you can give me 8 gold coins!"
The kobold looked like he had suffered a big loss, and took the initiative to lower the price with gritted teeth, trying to attract Allen's interest again.
"Hmph, your scorpion-tailed tiger skin had too many hidden wounds when you made it, and its defense is greatly reduced. It's not worth 8 gold coins at all."
Although the other party took the initiative to lower the price, the price was still higher than Allen's budget. In order to get rid of the kobold as soon as possible, he simply gave his own estimate.
"I will give you 5 gold coins at most. If you sell it, we will trade it. If you don't sell it, don't waste our time. I can go to other places."
"make a deal!!"
To Allen's surprise, after Allen gave his counter-offer, the dog head responded in the affirmative in a straightforward manner, and at the same time he did not forget to push the leather armor in his hand towards Allen's hand, for fear that the other party would return.
Seeing the other party's behavior, Allen knew that this transaction was probably a loss, but since everyone had opened their mouths and paid back the price, Allen couldn't go back on his words. According to Regis, you must be honest in everything you do, so that you can survive for a long time.
Reluctantly, he took out his wallet from his pocket, slowly counted out 5 gold coins, and threw it to the kobold who was looking at him eagerly. This was considered his first transaction in the dark alley today.
"Brother Goblin, do you need anything else? In addition to this set of leather armor, I also have some healing potions and a few spell scrolls. I will definitely give you the lowest discount. Why don't you take a look?"
The kobold, who had tasted the sweetness of Allen, was even more diligent in selling the products on his small stall to Allen, completely preparing for Allen to wrap up his own goods. Allen was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly. He fled the kobold's stall in a panic and ran deeper into the dark alley.
