Pirate Traveling Merchant

Nolan wandered around the market boredly. After shopping for a long time, he still couldn't find anything he could or wanted to buy.Unknowingly, we came to the outskirts of the market. There were not many people setting up stalls here, and the items on display were basically not good. There were not many people coming here, and the overall appearance was very deserted.

Nolan had nothing to do, and since there weren't many people around, he could take a good look at the things on display here.In the downtown area, because Nolan had little purchasing power, every time he watched, he would either be squeezed out by other customers or driven away by the stall owner after he inquired and learned that he had no money.This made Nolan very embarrassed and angry, but after all, he had no money, so he could only swallow his anger.

After all, Nolan is determined to do big business, and he will not go rogue to influence others to do business. In his opinion, there should be principles in doing business, whether it is a buyer or a seller.

While walking, Nolan discovered a very unique stall with a few scattered items on it, but the stall owner was sleeping.Curious, he walked to this stall to take a look.The stall owner did not wake up because of Nolan's arrival, but continued to sleep.The stall owner was a dwarf with a long beard that could hang to the ground. At this time, the stall owner used his beard as a quilt to sleep.

Seeing that the stall owner ignored him, Nolan looked at his things first.There are five things on it, a dagger, a long knife, a shield, a spear, and a pistol.It was a stall that specialized in selling weapons. Nolan picked up the five items and looked at them respectively. The five weapons were ordinary and had nothing special about them, and the stall owner did not have any price tags.

It seems that the stall owner marked the price verbally. The difference between verbal pricing and advance pricing is that advance pricing means the price is marked in advance and placed next to the product. When the buyer purchases, the price remains unchanged.Verbal pricing depends on the mood of the stall owner at that time, so the price will fluctuate greatly. Of course, no matter whether the price is marked in advance or verbally, there is no bargaining here.Therefore, most people will not buy things where the price is verbally marked. After all, the probability of being cheated is much higher.However, most sellers in the market place their bids in advance, and it is rare to see verbal bids.

This is the third place where Nolan saw verbal prices after visiting the entire market.The two previous ones were both in the downtown area, and the things they displayed were all very precious and rare, and you could tell they were expensive at first glance, so they had the confidence to price them verbally, and here... .Nolan doesn’t want to complain anymore.

Although he didn't really want to buy the things above, Nolan still kindly woke up the sleeping stall owner. The goods were stolen here, but no one would take care of it.

"Hey, hey, uncle, uncle, wake up."

The stall owner who was sleeping woke up after Nolan called out several times. "Hmm...Hmm, what's wrong?" The stall owner sat up.

"Uncle, it's not good for you to fall asleep like this. What will happen if the goods are stolen?" Nolan said to the stall owner who woke up.

The stall owner, who had regained consciousness, clarified the situation and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, I don't have anything good here, no one will steal it. Hahaha, my name is Uri, and you are a young man."

"My name is Nolan, I can't say that. If someone wants to buy your stuff, but you are still sleeping, they might not buy it." Nolan said, looking around, although here There are not many people, but when doing business, you still need to have an attitude.

"Brother Nolan, do you want to buy something from me? I haven't been open here for a long time." Uri said with eyes brightening.

"Uh..." Nolan didn't know how to answer, but looking at Uri's expectant eyes, he was a little embarrassed to refuse. "What are the prices of your products?" Nolan asked tentatively.

"Hahaha, it's not expensive. Although my products don't look very good, the quality is guaranteed. The price of the five items is the same, 5 Baileys each." Uri patted his thigh and smiled.

Looking at the five mediocre weapons on the ground, Uri dared to shout out the price. Although it was not high, it was not what ordinary weapons like yours could sell. No wonder you haven't opened for a long time.Nolan complained silently in his mind.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Uri, I only have 1000 beli on me now, so I can't buy your products." Nolan said apologetically.

Uri also lowered his head in frustration after hearing Nolan's answer.

Just when the two of them were feeling a little embarrassed, Uri's stomach suddenly growled. "Gurgulu" Uri quickly covered his stomach and his face turned red.

Looking at Uri looking around in panic, Nolan laughed. This uncle was quite interesting. "Uncle Uri, I happen to be hungry too. I'm going to buy something and come back to eat together." After saying that, Nolan ran out of the market.

"Hey, no need..." Before Uri could finish his words, Nolan had disappeared.

Nolan thought that he couldn't buy anything with the 1000 beli anyway, so he might as well buy some food and make friends with the interesting Uncle Uri.

Soon Nolan came back with a big bag of food, mainly bread, butter, cheap meat and the like. Although it didn't taste good, at least he was full.Otherwise, 1000 beli would have to buy delicious food, and you wouldn’t be able to buy much at all.He himself had a large appetite, but Uri saw that his appetite was also large, so he could only buy the cheapest things to win by quantity, and spent all the 1000 beli he had.

Nolan, who came back, sat down with Uri very familiarly, opened the food and started eating.After shopping for a day, he was also hungry. "Eat quickly, Uncle Uri." Nolan said with his mouth full.

Seeing the enthusiastic Nolan, Uri picked up the food and started eating without any courtesy. After all, he was really hungry.

The two ate for a while to satisfy their hunger, and then started chatting.

"Brother Nolan, is this your first time here?" Uri asked, biting into a piece of bread.

"How do you know?" Nolan looked at himself, how come everyone knew that it was his first time, even Chris from before had guessed it right away.

"It's very simple. People of your age are almost impossible to see here. Coupled with your behavior, people who have stayed here will not be as simple and enthusiastic as you." Uri replied.

Nolan thought about it and it was true. It had been almost a day since he came here, and he really hadn't seen anyone of his own age. As for the pure enthusiasm that Uri said, and compared with what Chris had done, Nolan couldn't help it. not agree.

"So that's it." Nolan looked at Uri's products and asked, "Uncle Uri, why are you just selling these things? You can't make money and you can't sell them."

"Hahaha, I can't help it. I only have these things on hand now, and I'm only here for a few days. I will go somewhere else later." Uri smiled indifferently.

"Well, Uncle Uri, you also sell other things." Nolan noticed the key point in Uri's words.

"Yes, I am a traveling businessman. I travel and do business. I sell whatever I have on hand. These things were found in a ruins before." Uri replied.

This is the first time that Nolan, a traveling businessman, has heard of such a businessman. He had always thought that doing business meant opening a store, developing slowly in one place, and then expanding outward when the strength was sufficient.

Nolan asked Uri excitedly: "Uncle Uri, can you tell me your story about being a traveling businessman?"

Uri readily agreed.

"Do you think that to do business, you need to have your own store or base or something." Uri asked.

Nolan nodded.

"Generally doing business is like that, but I like freedom and am not used to staying in one place for too long. Although the result of this is that the income will be very unstable. Just like now, I am too poor to buy food. But I don’t regret it, I like my current life very much and I want to visit various places." Uri said proudly.

Then, Uri began to tell Nolan about all the interesting things he encountered during his travels.Hearing Nolan's various envy, the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter.Two people who had never met each other started chatting like old friends.
