"Well... do we need to call in more people?" The leading craftsman named Iqil said that this is a big job and more people will be needed.
"We are enough to pick out equipment. Let's wait until all these corpses are disposed of. By the way, will you be resistant to this?" Mo Bei suddenly thought that these few may not have experienced human beings. Shou Shou immediately asked with concern.
"Still... not bad... I have helped collect a lot of corpses before..." Iqir nodded stiffly, but as soon as he finished speaking, a companion beside him couldn't hold it in any longer. Bu rushed to the river bank and leaned over and vomited.
Mo Bei smiled helplessly when he saw this, saying that people's ability to endure such things in different situations is really different.
Seeing that the faces of several other craftsmen were not good-looking, he made another arrangement and asked the five people to sort out the equipment while he and Ned Alvin skillfully picked up the equipment.
Pieces of blood-stained equipment were handed over to Akali and the others for a brief rinse in the river, and then they were thrown in front of the five people. In this way, an assembly line was formed. They were busy until the sun turned west, and then all the equipment that needed repair was All picked out.
Although these five people did not have direct contact with the corpse, they were obviously much silent. They were not like before, and they would show off their discernment intentionally or unintentionally.
Not only that, Mo Bei also clearly felt that several people were a little more fearful when facing him, but they were helpless.
However, after some hesitation, Iqir still spoke:
"The attributes of most of the blue equipment here are very practical. It would be a waste to dismantle them directly and use them as materials. There is a serious shortage of finished equipment on the market now. You can consider giving it to the workshop to sell it on your behalf. They will give you the details, even if it is deducted The repair cost and profit will definitely exceed the cost of selling the materials to the workshop. However..."
"Huh? But what?" Mo Bei had a rough guess when he heard that there was a shortage of equipment, but he still wanted to ask clearly.
"Recently, many new faces have been added to the seaport, and the demand for equipment has also increased significantly. You must have heard about this, but a large part of these people came from Caldeum City and do not have many gold coins with them. They brought a lot of miscellaneous supplies and various gadgets, such as metal ingots and the like. These were useful to us, but some people also asked for some handicrafts to pay off the bills. What we couldn't use, we had to I suggest they go elsewhere to cash in first.”
As he spoke, he took out an exquisite small silver pot from the inventory, showed it to Mo Bei, and continued:
"This is what I just exchanged for yesterday. The whole set is only worth ten gold coins."
Mo Bei took the small silver pot and looked at it. The workmanship was indeed very exquisite. This kind of thing was sold as a craftsmanship. He didn't know the exact value. He could only roughly estimate that it would take one or two to make such a set of utensils. Within a month, ten gold coins should be considered missed.
Why would the job changers from Caldeum City have these things on hand? . . Could it be the severance package given by those big families? .
It seemed that Asilah and Valena were already further dismantling the power of the nobles, but he couldn't figure out why these job transferees were so short of equipment. Logically speaking, only those from the Vergil family should be surrendered. It's the whole body equipment.
But he almost understood what Iqil meant.
By selling the equipment to job transferees who have been dismissed from the big families, you can recycle the artifacts scattered by these big noble families at a relatively low price, and this kind of stuff is quite valuable. As long as you hoard it for a period of time, not to mention the greatest benefit. It is at least more profitable than selling it directly into gold coins.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect that Iqir's mind was quite lively.
He had thought about replacing all of them with small talismans, but he had experienced the previous experience of being beyond his endurance, so he felt that this kind of thing should be done step by step like upgrading. It's safe to come here and it's enough to leave some equipment behind.
After thinking for a while, he still asked:
"Why are those people so short of equipment?"
"Their overall equipment level is relatively poor, and they even have a lot of standard equipment. They are just superficial items. If you want to go deep into the rain forest, they are not enough."
Mo Bei understood clearly after hearing this. He had also worn that kind of standard equipment, and it was a relatively good one. The damage and defense were acceptable. It was suitable for battles involving many people together, and it had to be a favorable situation.
However, because they are all made of materials that are abundant in Alkanas, the resistance and battery life are relatively lacking, so it does not feel safe to practice as a team.
"Okay, after this part is repaired, I will use it for other purposes, and the rest will be as you say." He thought for a moment, and felt that as long as these equipment can be put to their best use, it doesn't matter what they can be exchanged for.
Iqir nodded solemnly, unable to conceal the joy in his eyes.
He indeed hopes to be appreciated by the big shots through this opportunity. This mentality is understandable, but people like Mo Bei have never thought about managing their own power, so they will most likely disappoint him.
While talking, Iqil's companions had already called in other helpers and several large vehicles. After recording the large amount of equipment one by one, they loaded the equipment and took it away.
Mo Bei, on the other hand, got a thick stack of receipts, with a total of more than two thousand pieces of weapons, equipment and accessories. He said before that the number was huge, and that was no exaggeration.
The numbers themselves don't mean much, but being able to bring back so many resources makes a few people feel full of satisfaction and sense of accomplishment.
"Finally done..." Mo Bei put away the list and walked slowly towards Eco's laboratory with a group of people.
He was far less thoughtful than Kane, and he just felt relaxed at the moment.
After solving all these things, it seems that the only thing left to worry about now is upgrading. I thought it would be nice if there was a place like the Secret Cow Gate to give them some experience.
Moo moo moo. . . .
He couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the cry of the hell cow. It felt so funny.
"What's wrong?" Akali felt that his smile was a bit abrupt and asked while tilting her head.
"Haha, wait a minute."
Perhaps because of a feeling of nostalgia in his heart, Mo Bei suddenly had the urge to express himself. He took out his sketchbook and started scribbling on it while walking.
Not long after, a man stood up with an angry look on his face, and a cow holding a machete appeared on the paper. Although the painting style was a bit comical, the expression was quite expressive.
Everyone couldn't help but smile when they saw his bizarre drawings. They just thought it was this guy who had a whim and scribbled carelessly.
However, the small flame on Perona's shoulder swayed back and forth, and Serina's voice came out:
"Have you ever seen this kind of monster?"
"Um... there really isn't such a monster, right?" Mo Bei heard the surprise in her tone and asked subconsciously.
Serena didn't answer, but she saw Perona unfolding Ethan Lan's book, and the pages turned over automatically. After it came to rest, there was a cow monster on it that was very similar to the one painted by Mo Bei, but the style of painting was more realistic, and the key features of the abdomen were It's not as exaggerated as Mo Bei's painting. . . .
Mo Bei stood blankly on the spot, and after a while he managed to say:
"Why is there something so inappropriate in this book!?"
