Chapter 20 The Value of Gold Coins

Holding torches, Green and Saskia led the two traveling salesmen into the BOSS hall deep in the tunnel.

"The one on the ground is... a magic circle?" Herola stared at the dark hall.

As a half-orc, Herola has low-light vision. Although she can't see in the dark, she is much better than ordinary people in low-light environments.The light from the torch was not bright, but it was enough for Herora to see the situation in the cave clearly.

For such a situation, Green has long been prepared.

"Yes." Green nodded and admitted frankly, "This should be an evil magic circle. When I came, there were many undead crowded here, probably because of this magic circle." Green tried to mislead Herola. .

"We are not good at magic, but we can indeed feel that there is an evil energy in it." Herola looked a little serious.

nonsense!This teleportation magic circle leads to the witch's dungeon. During the process of using the teleportation, some aura from the opposite side will be leaked. It is precisely because of that aura that Herola misunderstood it.Green is delighted to hear this kind of misunderstanding—in any case, the existence of this teleportation array can be regarded as successfully concealed.

So Green nodded with a serious face and said: "Well, so I plan to destroy this magic circle. You can't keep such harmful things!"

"You're right." Herola nodded, agreeing with Green's point of view.

"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about business now." Green pointed to a pile of ore and broken copper and iron next to him, "The spoils of war are all here, except for some damaged weapons and equipment, there are also some extremely pure rich ore." When the magic circle was cleaned up, all the loot had been moved to the entrance of the hall and piled up, but except for the magic iron ore and the fine gold mine in Green's hands, the others were not very valuable. thing.

"There are so many ores? It's a pity that this kind of thing is very bulky and not very valuable." Herola deliberately showed a disappointed expression on her face.

Green couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "General ores are indeed worthless, but what about magic iron ore?"

"Oh?" The two traveling salesmen were finally moved.

In the world of Io, ordinary items are not very valuable, but anything with magic, the price will rise sharply.The hardness of magic iron is similar to that of steel, but it has extremely strong magic resistance. It is one of the main materials for making various anti-magic equipment and magic-breaking weapons.Armor and shields made of fel iron ore are the equipment that any warrior dreams of.

Green picked up a small piece of magic iron ore from the ground and threw it over.

The two traveling salesmen quickly caught the ore thrown by Green and began to identify it.

Green took the opportunity to count the magic iron ores on the ground and estimated the price in his mind.

"It is estimated that there are 5 units of magic iron ore."

In the later stage of the game, the price of magic iron ore is basically stable at 5 gold coins per unit, but it was sold for 20 gold coins per unit when it was expensive. In other words, the value of this batch of ore should be between 25 and 100 gold coins.

"Five units of magic iron ore can smelt at least ten magic iron ingots, enough to make a piece of armor!" Green turned back to the two businessmen and said, "How much is a set of anti-magic armor made of magic iron ore worth? I think you know it well."

"You can't say that, the wages of senior blacksmiths are much more expensive than the materials." It was Lorenz who spoke, "And it is not easy to transport these ores to the city. Robber, if you don't do it, you will lose everything."

Green waved his hand: "Mr. Lorenz, I'm not a businessman, and I don't like haggling. You just ask the price directly. If I think it is suitable, I will make a deal. If I think it is not suitable, then I will transport this batch of ore to the city to find Blacksmiths make equipment."

"Well..." Lorenz lowered his head and thought for a while, then stretched out three fingers.

Green raised his eyebrows: "Three hundred gold coins?"

Lorenz: "You can joke, a piece of anti-magic armor is only worth this price. I mean thirty gold coins of Ouchen."

oh?The price of a piece of anti-magic armor is three hundred gold coins?Green narrowed his eyes and continued to bargain: "But thirty gold coins is too little. At this price, I might as well transport it back to the city to find a blacksmith."

Lorenz shook his head: "If you can transport this batch of magic iron ore to the city, you may be able to sell it at a higher price, but the various checkpoints and taxes along the way will destroy most of this batch of goods. If you are in If you encounter enemies on the road or encounter forced buying and selling, you may even lose everything!"

Hearing Lorenz's words, Green couldn't help sighing: It's over, he guessed my bottom line.

Lorenz was right, it was impossible for Green to transport the magic iron ore back to the city for sale, but the reason was not because Green was afraid of being taxed by the checkpoint, but because he could not train with so much magic iron ore. level up.

For players, level is everything, and the purpose of making money is just to upgrade faster.Wasting a few days or even ten days of precious leveling time for just dozens of gold coins?This is not in the player's interest.

In fact, without these two merchants, Green originally planned to give up those magic iron mines.

"...Okay, you convinced me. Thirty Woggin gold coins, this batch of magic iron ore is yours." After a short hesitation, Green gave up bargaining and readily agreed to the deal.

Thirty gold coins is already a lot.According to the experience summed up by the players, one Wojin gold coin in the game is almost equivalent to the purchasing power of [-] soft sister coins, and thirty gold coins is equivalent to the purchasing power of [-] soft sister coins on the earth. "A huge amount of money", but it is already enough as an early stage activity fund.

"But we don't have that much money right now." Lorenz's next words made Green feel like he had been fooled.

Green: "...Are you kidding me?"

"We can exchange goods," Lorenz added.

Green looked at Lorenz expressionlessly: "..."

"You should have experienced a tough battle before, right? Weapons and equipment should be worn out. I think that various weapons and equipment should be more suitable for your needs than gold coins." As expected of a professional businessman, he was keenly aware of meet Green's needs.

Although gun magic is powerful, the mana consumption is not a small amount for Green now.If you can update your equipment and replenish supplies, you can also improve your ability to continue fighting.

"...Okay, you convinced me. But the price of the product can only be calculated according to the cost price."

"Of course!" Lorenz smiled and invited Green to look at the goods in the carriage.
