Working Prophet.

Chapter 53 Too Many Good Things
"You go to a nearby town to find a market, as soon as you put it out, there will be merchants coming to you to ask the price, or you can go directly to those big chambers of commerce, they have strong financial resources, and they will definitely be able to eat so much Goods."

Miss Rabbit reluctantly put the bag of pepper back on the table.

What is the most painful thing in this world?
Answer: There is a large pile of gold in front of you, but it does not belong to you.

That's how Ilea feels now.

It hurts, it hurts too much!In this icy world, only the ancestors who can jump grid still have the slightest warmth.

Thinking of this, the girl touched the necklace hanging around her neck with one hand.

But then I heard Li Yu say again, "Where is the nearest town to the green field?"

"Black Rock City, it takes less than a day to go back and forth by carriage." Miss Rabbit said, "You can go to Fausto and ask him to find someone to take you there."

"One day is too time-consuming." Li Yu said, "I don't have that much time to spend on the road."

The girl had already held the electronic pet egg, but she seemed to notice something and stopped.

"Besides, I've only just arrived in this continent. I'm not familiar with the place, and I don't know the merchants in Blackstone City. They will definitely lower the price with me."

"You can find a few more and ask."

"What if they join forces?"

"Well, your worry is not unreasonable." Miss Rabbit seemed to smell the sweet smell of gold coins, but her relationship with Li Yu was too close, so she was embarrassed to speak about some things, but the hand that reached for the necklace had already retracted.

"And the biggest question is, according to what you said, this batch of peppers is very valuable. How can I keep the wealth and my own safety after selling them?"

The girl swallowed, and followed what Li Yu said, "You can hire mercenaries, but with such a large amount of money, those mercenaries are unreliable. They are just a bunch of hungry wolves who are blind to money. A sense of honor."

While pretending to be worried for Li Yu, Miss Rabbit secretly observed someone's expression, hoping that Li Yu would propose that she send someone to complete the deal.

In the end, Li Yu said, "Looks like I have to find another helper."

"That's right, that's right." The young girl kept nodding her head like a chicken pecking rice, and her eyes became more and more excited.

"I think Jude is not bad. Although he is greedy for money, he is very polite. He will do what he promises. He is good at martial arts. Before, he could fight four or five people alone. With me, even if he meets six A team of seven is not afraid."

Li Yu noticed that some people's true nature was exposed very quickly, and her saliva was almost dripping in just a short while, so she had to remind her a little bit, and let her restrain herself, lest this guy get carried away later, completely succumb to instinct, and sit on the floor starting price.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Miss Rabbit felt as if someone had poured cold water on her, and said anxiously, "Jude...how can he do it?!"

"Why can't Jude?" Li Yu asked back.

"He... he's still working for me, how can he take other people's money?" Ilea thought up a quick wit and came up with a perfect excuse.

"It's simple. You didn't pay him much anyway. At worst, let him quit your job and concentrate on selling pepper for me. To be fair, we can let him choose."

Miss Rabbit was dumbfounded, how could it be possible to make more money by being a showman for her than doing big business with Li Yu, a fool would know how to choose.

Seeing that the fat from her mouth was about to fly away, the girl was about to cry.

And Li Yu also felt that the fire was almost ready, so he changed the subject, "But Jude is just a mercenary after all, not good at doing business, and he has been in the wild before, and the way he communicates with people is... quite special. , so I think it’s better for me to find someone else.”

"Choose me." Ilea finally couldn't help blurting out.

"I have a familiar businessman in Black Rock City, who can get you a more satisfactory price, and with the prestige of the Arias family in the vicinity, there is no little girl who dares to hit us. If you don't If you don’t worry, I can still send a knight to complete the transaction, and I promise to help you get the money back, of course, this requires you to give up a little profit, just a little bit.”

After Miss Rabbit finished speaking in one breath, she felt relieved for a while, as if the big stone that had been pressing on her chest had been removed.

"How much do you want?" Li Yu asked.

"Thirty percent!" Miss Rabbit didn't think about it, and then she seemed worried that Li Yu would be dissatisfied, and she explained, "Although I am a lord, I can't let people's work be wasted by sending knights out to do errands except during wars. Of course, this part doesn’t need much, the big one is transaction tax.”

"Transaction tax?"

"Yes, Black Rock City is the territory of the Gustav family. All transactions in the city will be taxed by the Gustav family, especially the spices. They keep an eye on it very closely. They send consuls at the market every day. Patrol."

"What is the tax rate?"

"Twenty percent." Miss Rabbit's eyes flickered when she reported the count.

Li Yu immediately understood that this kid must have a way to evade taxes.

This is not the universe he is in. As long as the tax authorities want to check, there is basically no tax that cannot be found out. Besides, even in his universe, there are still many people evading taxes, let alone here.

In order to collect taxes in the Middle Ages, King Athelstan of England once ordered no one to buy goods exceeding [-] pence outside the town. Even God moved out. However, the underground economy has been booming in places where the administrators cannot see. develop.

It must be no exception here.The Arias family has been rooted in the western region for hundreds of years. It would be strange if they couldn't even do something as small as tax evasion.

But Li Yu didn't point it out. Anyway, if he sells it himself, he must pay the tax.

Rather than paying to the Gustav family, Ilea would be better off, and in this way, he only needs to pay [-]% of the income to let Miss Rabbit cover everything from negotiation to transportation.

It can be called a model of one-stop service, and with Ilea as a stingy check, the final transaction price must be higher than what he negotiated by himself.

Maybe it can already make up for the [-]% that was allocated, and with the back of the Arias family, it won't cause any unnecessary trouble.

Li Yu was very satisfied with this transaction, and Miss Rabbit was even more delighted, and her heart was full of joy.

He kept asking, "Is there a lot of black gold in your hometown? Why don't you bring some more next time."

"Let's talk about it," Li Yu said, "I still have other things to get, but when it comes to selling money, I have some other goods here, and I'm a little uncertain about their value, so please help me take a look together. "

"What other good things did you bring?" The girl became interested, "Can it compare to pepper?"

"It might work."

Li Yu took out another small bag from his pocket, this time he directly poured the contents of the bag on the table.

After seeing the sharp-edged gadgets on the table that exuded dazzling light, Ilea's breathing stopped instantly.

--artificial gemstone.The main chemical composition is no different from that of natural gemstones. They are all aluminum oxide, and different colors are displayed by mixing different compounds. The wholesale price on 1688 varies from a few cents to tens of dollars depending on the size of the workmanship.

Li Yu bought the 10*10mm ones, and since there were ten bids, he took ten bids and spent a total of 110 yuan.
