Chapter 62: Deal Making

Eugene did not show much surprise at Margaret's answer, but just asked in a muffled voice:

"You have six months' rations for five hundred men?"

"Yes!" Margaret answered confidently.

As long as there are slaves, the city of Menzoberranzan can exchange for everything it wants.

Hearing this, Eugene nodded seriously.

“How do you deliver it to me?”

"We can't deliver it, so you have to come pick it up."

“I can’t do it!

Let me be frank, winter is about to come to the North, and traveling at this time is tantamount to seeking death!

Even if I catch a slave, I can't give him to you."

"Just send it to the Shadow Forest." Margaret explained.

"No!" Eugene shook his head in denial without hesitation.

"The Shadow Forest is the territory of the long-eared ones. I can't enter."

The two men argued constantly in order to make the deal happen;

It can be seen that these two guys really want to make this deal, but at the same time, they don't want to expose their existence.

Although they could roughly guess each other's existence, they obviously had no intention of making it clear.

Seeing this, Steve slowly stretched out his hand to interrupt the argument between the two and said in a calm tone:

"Hey, you two, why are you turning a simple gathering into a secret meeting of an evil organization?

You pay the money, you get some slaves, and the two of you meet up at a nearby location to trade, isn't that great?"

Hearing this, Eugene and Margaret fell silent at the same time.

Not because what Steve said was right, but because what he said was a little bit out of the ordinary.

Honest?

There is no such word in the drow dictionary!

As for the orcs, who are considered evil by nature in the eyes of humans, it is really unlikely to ask them to be honest while they are struggling to survive in the wilderness.

Seeing the two of them not talking and looking strange, Steve smiled helplessly and changed the subject to talk about his own affairs:

"I just recently returned from the Zerg battlefield."

With just one sentence, Eugene and Margaret shrank their necks, but Steve didn't care and continued:

“You don’t know, the Zerg died tragically on the battlefield;

First, more than 500 legendary warriors died in the front line, and subsequent battles left only 700 remaining legendary warriors to be wiped out.

In the end, I, the most inexperienced person, was able to survive."

The weakest survived... Margaret pursed her lips and repeated strangely in her heart.

On the side, Eugene closed his big mouth full of fangs, swallowed his saliva, and his heart was surging.

When did the number of legendary warriors start to be measured in 'hundreds'?

How can I, a fourth-level storm lord, put my face aside?

The number of legendary strongmen in the entire world of Toril is probably only a little over a thousand!

Damn! The Zerg battlefield is so terrifying!

What's even more terrifying is that these 1,200 people died, but this Mr. Steve in front of him was able to come back alive. How unreasonable is his strength!

Looking at the strange expressions on the two people's faces, Steve smiled and said:

"So... do you think I am qualified to be a witness to your transaction?"

nonsense!

Eugene and Margaret complained in their hearts at the same time.

"I think it's feasible!"

"Me too!" Margaret nodded willingly.

Seeing this, Steve smiled and continued:

"What do you think? I charge you 10% of the total value of the goods as a commission?"

"Very fair!" Eugene nodded immediately.

He truly felt it was a good fit and even felt he had gotten a great deal.

With such a powerful lord willing to witness this transaction, the possibility of being deceived was greatly reduced;

He had done business with humans, and compared to those merchants who would double or triple the price at any time, the conscience of this legendary strong man was so good that it made him cry.

On the side, even though she was still a little unwilling, Margaret nodded and admitted that this was a very fair fee.

Seeing the two nod, Steve smiled even more happily.

"Please continue..."

Hearing this, Margaret nodded first, looked at Eugene, and asked thoughtfully:

"What kind of slaves can you provide?"

"Kobolds, goblins, gnolls, er... orcs are OK too!"

"Are there any dwarves?"

Hearing this, Eugene's head shook like a rattle.

"Are you kidding me?! The Dwarven Kingdom's headquarters is in Thorium Hall!"

The implication is that their lair is right here, and if you're looking for trouble with those short and stubby guys, it's like playing hide-and-seek in the toilet - looking for shit!

On the side, Margaret, who had entered negotiation mode, answered without hesitation:

“Before the Dwarves, one Dwarf was worth two Orcs, and if he had the skills, more!

Goblins and kobolds are worthless, three gnolls are worth one orc!"

Hearing this, Eugene frowned and said hesitantly:

"What about...Winter Wolf!"

Hearing this, Margaret's eyes lit up and she looked at Eugene with some surprise.

"Winter wolves are valuable. If you can get a winter wolf with intact fur, it can be worth five dwarves!"

In fact, she lied. The pelt of a winter wolf with its fur intact was worth fifteen dwarves, not to mention a living winter wolf.

While Eugene and Margarita were having a heated discussion, Steve was distracted.

Winter Wolf...

There are many winter wolves in the North. If you just want to kill a winter wolf, it is not difficult to deal with this kind of thing. A first-level adventurer team can kill one;

But if you want to avoid losing money, the winter wolf is definitely one of the most difficult species in the North;

First of all, it should be made clear that winter wolves are pack monsters, which means that you have almost no chance of catching a lone winter wolf;

Their appearance is similar to that of ordinary wolves, but they are much taller;

Adult winter wolves are generally more than four and a half feet (1.4 meters) tall at the shoulder, eight feet (2.4 meters) long, and weigh about 500 pounds (225 kilograms);

Winter wolves are just as cunning as humans, and some believe they are even smarter than humans;

They are unique creatures of the North, naturally immune to freezing, and are good at breathing ice... Yes, you read that right, they can breathe like dragons;

The most speechless thing is that winter wolves are born with the ability to speak Common, Giant, and Wolf.

That is, they will not only bark at you, but also greet your family, ancestors, and spouse in various languages.

Some large winter wolf packs will even train wolf children. The most ridiculous thing is that the wolf children they train can even master the barbarian profession!
