Journey to Azeroth

Chapter 79 The Golden Indus Market

"Mr. Landlord," Carl sympathized with the landlord's experience, and said comfortingly, "I came to help you when I came today."

"How can you help me?" The landlord's gloomy eyes lit up, and he asked expectantly.

"I'm very interested in your house, do you plan to sell it?"

"Impossible!" The landlord slapped the wooden railing of the prison cell, and said angrily, "When I was down and out, you came to take advantage of the fire and rob me. If I die, I won't sell it to you cheaply!"

"I was expecting you to save me, I was really blind!"

"Mr. Landlord, how much money do you owe, and the police station has not let you out?" Carl was not dissatisfied with the landlord's anger, and asked.

"About 150 gold coins."

"For 150 gold coins, you can buy a single-family house in the civilian area, two apartments in the mage area, and the rent for shops in the bustling commercial area will not exceed 1 gold coins a year," Carl said in a calm voice: "I believe you should know the price of Dalaran better than I do. 2 gold coins are not something that ordinary people can afford. This may also be the reason why your friends can't help you."

"For gold coins below 50, their partnership should be able to get them together. For 150 gold coins, there are not many people in Dalaran who can come up with so many gold coins."

"Understood," the landlord nodded, looked at Carl intently, and waited for the next step.

"And I happen to have a lot of gold coins recently," Carl continued, "I didn't come here today to take advantage of the fire. You can entrust the chamber of commerce to evaluate the price of your house, and trade according to the price evaluated by the chamber of commerce."

"To be honest, although your house is in the Mage District, it is not the most prosperous location. It costs about 300 gold coins at most. You are not the only one who sells houses in the Mage District. I just prefer Lily Street, and I am familiar with the surrounding areas. People, life is very convenient."

"The most important thing is that this money can pay off your foreign debts, and the remaining money can be used to buy a house. Instead of wasting time here, you can make money when you go out. Maybe you can buy a house in the Mage District in a few years, right?"

Looking at the thoughtful landlord, Carl continued to persuade: "Isn't this a win-win deal? I am the most sincere buyer so far. If you refuse, there will be no such fair price next time. The most important thing is I believe that there should be many chambers of commerce staring at your house, they are waiting, when you are weak, desperate, and when you are most desperate, the lion will open its mouth."

"At that time, if you can sell 200 gold coins, it will be a high price."

In a few minutes, the landlord's expression changed, and his heart was constantly changing. The landlord's expression changed from angry to frowning, from cloudy to gloomy, then became calm and began to think, and finally seemed to have made a big decision , opened his mouth and said to Carl: "I've done this deal!"

He added: "But you have to pay for me first, and get me out."

"A wise choice," Carl reached out to shake hands with the landlord, and said with a smile, "Happy cooperation!"

The conversation changed, and he said to the landlord: "No, the amount is too large. It would take too much risk to rescue you without a contract. I can help you contact any chamber of commerce you designate in Dalaran. Come here Accept your commission."

"Or you can contact the guards here. I am familiar with the guards at the security station. I believe they will be willing to help with this little favor."

"Understood, let the guards help me contact the Nia Chamber of Commerce!"

Carl stood up and said to the landlord: "After the Chamber of Commerce's assessment is completed, you can come to No. 12 Lily Street to find me at any time."

After leaving the prison, when Carl passed by the security station, he saw Smith frowning and writing something in the middle of the one-meter-high materials from the window. He left the Sword of Dawn through the main entrance without disturbing Smith, who was writing quickly.

After leaving, Carl walked towards the next destination today. He arrived at the market of the Jinwutong Chamber of Commerce in ten minutes. After showing his membership card, he was guided into the interior by the employees at the door.

Jinwutong Street is the street where the market is located, and the name of Jinwutong Chamber of Commerce is also named after this street.

Jinwutong Street is less than 3 meters wide and covered with smooth cobblestones. On both sides of the street are dense two-story buildings. These buildings are similar in style to Karl’s villa. The second floor is more spacious than the first floor, blocking most of the sunlight. Brings shade to the hot summer.

All kinds of shops are lined up on both sides of the street, and the shops are full of goods, and the goods of some shops are even piled up at the door of the shop because they are too full.

The shopping crowd is walking in the market, and the employees of the store are enthusiastically selling their products to the customers, shouting one after another:
"Furniture, the most popular oak furniture this year!"

"Crucibles, iron pots! Knives and shovels, kitchen knives!"

……

"Feather quilts and duck feather sheets, give you the most comfortable sleeping experience!"

Carl quickly found the target of the trip, a shop selling kitchen utensils and tableware.

"Good day, Mr. Mage," an employee greeted Carl in a loud voice, bowed, and said, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

This is a shop specializing in tableware and kitchenware. There are wooden shelves on both sides of the shop, and the shelves are full of various tableware and kitchenware.

"I just moved to a new house and need a standard set of tableware and kitchenware," Carl nodded, looking at the goods around him.

"I recommend this to you, sterling silver tableware. This is the most popular tableware for the nobles of Lordaeron and can show their status!" The employee gushed, "Look at the exquisite carvings and exquisite patterns. Del's works are of high value no matter they are used or collected."

"Just 10 gold coins!"

Carl rolled his eyes. I was out of my mind and spent 10 gold coins to buy beautiful tableware.

"I need 10 sets of plain silver cutlery, china plates, and glassware, and by the way, glasses, stemware, and decanters," Carl pulled out a piece of parchment, handed it to the employee, and continued, "This It's a shopping list for cutlery and kitchenware."

"The material has been marked on it, and the required quantity is also written on it. I only need ordinary quality tableware. If you continue to promote these flashy things, I will go to other stores to buy!"

Looking at the employee who was staring at the order, Carl said in a deep voice: "If I find any private goods or some flashy things, the vice president of your chamber of commerce, Lena, is my friend, and you don't want him to know You behave like this."

There are a lot of items on Karl’s shopping list, all of which are worth close to 10 gold coins. After completing this transaction, the employee will also get considerable income. The employee’s eyes glowed with excitement, and he said to Karl firmly:

"Mr. Master, please rest assured and leave it to me, there will be absolutely no problems."

Carl swaggered and sat on an unoccupied chair, watching the employees in front of him get busy.
