On the way back to the bar, Lanya was always attracted by the vendors on the street. Although he wanted to go back to the bar to work as soon as possible, he couldn't bear to stop her when he saw her curious look.
Forget it, let Elise enjoy her addiction for a while longer today. If she goes back too soon, she might not be happy.
When passing by Alison's magic equipment shop, Lanya tugged on Ringer's cloak.
"Didn't you lose your staff? Buy another one."
The last time she fought the wild boar outside the city, Celia used Ringer's wand to deliver the final blow, and the wand flew to an unknown place.
But even if he found it, Ringer wouldn't use it again, so he simply didn't look for it.
Lin Ge thought about it and realized that Lanya had recovered the money she had lost. Although it was less than five hundred gold, it was enough to buy a cheap staff. If there is a staff as a medium, it is always better than empty-handed, so Go into the store.
There were no customers in the store, it was very quiet and filled with light woody fragrance. Alison was dozing behind the counter with her chin propped up.
When the three Ringers entered the door, the magic wind chime in front of the door to alert the guests to their arrival swayed slightly. Upon hearing the sound, Alison tilted her elbow, swayed her body, and almost fell off the chair, and she woke up immediately.
When she saw Ringer entering the store and bringing a new face, her eyes suddenly lit up and she was no longer sleepy.
She walked out of the counter and greeted him with a warm smile on her face:
"Junior Linge, how are you doing with your magic studies?"
Alison is an official magician who has passed the examination of the Dharma Assembly, and Linge is an apprentice of the Dharma Assembly, so she can be regarded as Linge's senior. Calling him a disciple is not only reasonable, but also invisibly brings the two closer to each other. .
"Have mastered some basic magic," Ringer responded politely, "How about you, how is the business in the store recently?"
Alison sighed, looking sad.
"There is almost no business. If this continues, I don't know when I will be able to save enough gold coins to take the magister certification exam."
Lin Ge was moved in his heart and asked: "How much is the fee for the Magister Certification Examination?"
"One hundred thousand gold."
Hearing this number, Lin Ge's heart skipped a beat. This charge was really dark.
"It's an astonishing number, right?" Alison shook her head, "And even if you pay, you may not be able to pass."
Lanya beside Lin Ge whispered: "I will never become a magician in my life. No, with my wealth, I can't even get the 10,000 gold coins for the official magician assessment..."
Karina laughed and joked: "Your magician's guild is really good at making money. Fortunately, I don't know magic."
"Forget it, don't mention this, what are you going to buy today?" Alison's eyes exuded a bright light, which was the light she would emit when she saw gold coins.
"I lost my staff, so I want to buy a new one."
"Oh, junior, why are you so careless? The staff is the soul of a magician. Remember to take good care of it next time."
Alison said regretful words, but the smile on her face became even brighter. Staffs are big business. The last time Ringo bought two staffs in her store, they were enough to handle half a year's business in her store.
Unexpectedly, he lost his staff in just a few days. What a good move...
The corners of her mouth raised involuntarily, and she led Linge to the corner where the staff holders were placed. Linge glanced at the staffs on the shelf and couldn't tell whether they were good or bad, so he asked:
"Which one is the cheapest?"
"The cheapest one, right? This is it - eh? The cheapest one?" The smile on Alison's face paused and she confirmed.
"Yes, the cheapest."
Lin Ge was wondering whether he should go back to Prince Lieyang to get some activity funds. If it weren't for him, he wouldn't be targeted by the lizard man assassin.
Alison thought for a moment and pulled out a short and slender chopstick from the bottom of the shelf. No, it was a staff, a silver staff.
"So small." Linge said.
Alison explained with a smile: "This is a miniature wand. I bought it from Holmuz in the south. The mages there like to use this short wand. This one is made of magic that has excellent conductivity." Made of mithril, it is easy to control magic and is suitable for casting high-precision magic."
Ringer took the wand handed over by Alison. It felt very light in the hand, and the slightly thicker end had spiral patterns to prevent it from slipping.
He injected a little magic power into the wand, and it was indeed easy to control the released magic power, but the amplification effect was almost non-existent. If he wanted to cast a powerful spell, he could only rely on his own magic power, and there was no way to use it as an iron rod for emergency use.
But it should be good for mixing wine. Mixing wine requires precise blending magic to blend the various materials together with as little error as possible.
"How much does this one cost?"
"A thousand pieces of gold," Alison blurted out.
"Is this the cheapest?" Ringer looked at Alison's fair face in surprise. Her face seemed to be full of sincerity.
"Although I would also like to make it cheaper for my juniors, this is already the cost price.
Recently, the purchase price of Holmuz has increased. I heard that bandits have appeared on the caravan route, and the freight has also increased a lot. If sold to others, this wand would cost at least 1,500 gold. "
"But I don't have that much money."
"How many do you have?" Alison asked, blinking.
"It's only 462 gold, otherwise I wouldn't say I want the cheapest one."
"This..." Alison hesitated, should she sell it to Ringer for 460 gold? It would be better to make less than none at all.
She soon made up her mind, and while she was thinking about the price reduction argument, Ringer had already handed the wand back.
"I'd better come back another day."
At this time, Lanya on the side tugged on Linge's sleeve and said, "Don't you still have the eight hundred gold? You can use it."
"Okay, for the sake of junior Lin Ge, 460 gold, this is senior's special discount price." - Allison swallowed the words immediately when they came to her lips.
Ringer said: "But that's your salary."
Lanya stroked her staff and said softly: "You bought this staff for me for 2888 gold. You are willing to buy me such an expensive staff. How can I be stingy to you? I was so stingy before. I lost your gold coins and I said I would compensate you, so just think of these gold coins as compensation from me."
Alison nodded and agreed: "Yes, just think of it as a gift from her in return. I have already felt her sincerity. You must accept it well."
For the sake of this, Ling Ge had to agree even if he didn't agree.
"Okay, I'll take it."
A smile broke out on Alison's face again: "Do you need me to wrap it up for you?"
"No thanks."
After paying the bill, with Alison's sweet voice, the three of them left the store.
"Come and see me when you have time, Senior Lin Ge."
Arriving on the street outside the store, Karina finally couldn't help laughing, as if she had been holding it in for a long time.
