My Magic Age
Chapter 132 132. Small town market
When Kurtz opened the curtain and walked in, his eye circles were still red and swollen like two peaches.
Catalina and I sat on the wooden piers of the balcony. I lazily put my hands on the exquisite mahogany railings and looked out at will. Our guest room is on the second floor of the castle. Every floor of this castle The lifts are very high, almost ten meters, so when I stand on the second floor balcony, I can still have a panoramic view of the town. Although there are many buildings where I can only see a blur of roofs, I can still see them. Let me appreciate the unique orc architectural style of the small town. The railings were coated with thick black paint and looked shiny in the afternoon sun.
Catalina on the side is sitting on the wooden pier, supporting her chin with both hands, her eyes wandering and thinking about her thoughts. Her beautiful rosy face and big watery eyes, no matter how she looks at it, she feels that it is bringing disaster to the country and the people.
Qige changed into a devotional magic suit provided by the Imperial Magic Academy. The striped long trousers made her look much taller. Her long wet hair was tied casually into a ponytail and turned into a burgundy color. I think Qige has become a magician. , the biggest help to her is that it can make her more beautiful. The most common items in her carry-on luggage are various bottles and jars of magic potions, and among these magic potions, the most numerous are dyes, various perfumes, and lip oils. I even think that she took magic potion as an elective just to make herself more radiant. She was sitting on a high chair next to the wooden table in the room, holding a glass of apple juice in her hand, and asked me suspiciously: "Jia, why is there red lipstick on the corner of your mouth?"
I was like a child who had been caught doing something wrong. I was so frightened that I jumped up from the wooden pier and ran towards the bronze mirror in the room. I happened to bump into Kurtz who had just walked into the room.
"Jia, where are you going?" Kurtz asked me, rubbing his chin.
My head just hit his chin, and his bones were so hard that I felt a burning pain on the top of my head. I touched the top of my head to make sure I wasn't knocked out of the big bag, and then said to him: "It's nothing, maybe I just ate cranberries and it got on my mouth."
At this time, I put my face in front of the mirror and saw clearly that the very childish face in the mirror was clean and devoid of anything. At this time, I secretly glanced at Catalina and saw her stealing from the side. Smiling, her lips were obviously stained with light pink lip oil. Only then did she realize that she was being teased by the weird Qige again. My silly look made Qige laugh.
"I thought I would come over to comfort you, but now it seems that you don't take it to heart at all!" Kurtz said with a dumb smile.
Qi Ge widened her eyes and sneered: "We have been in the dance troupe for so long, and we have seen even more despicable people. Your nephew is just a kid. He has just entered puberty and is at the age when he is curious about the opposite sex. He is a guy who doesn't understand." He's just a little bastard who chases girls and wants to express himself in front of beautiful people of the opposite sex, but he doesn't know how to do it. We won't be the same as him."
"Azi, judging by his appearance, your nephew is about the same age as you!" I put an arm around his shoulder. This guy is getting taller and taller. Now I have to stand on tiptoe to barely reach his shoulder.
"Yes, my son and I, who were born in the same year, both participated in the coming-of-age ceremony this year. You just saw him wearing a shaman's robe, which is what he was going to wear at the coming-of-age ceremony." After Kuz said, "Ha Haha." He laughed. It was obvious that since he got the set of light leather armor of the Demon Antelope that he sewed by himself, he began to comment unscrupulously on the clothes of other teenagers.
A few of us sat together and discussed what we were going to do next. The first thing we had to do was to see the bulky weapons we seized sold. We thought about our experience in Yemen Town when we were slaughtered when we sold mountain axes. , now we need to discuss how to sell those two giant swords for a good price. Among the weapons we seized from the prairie bandits last time, the only ones that are worth any money are three ironwood bows and one broken pole. A big black iron gun.
Kurtz was too unclear about the situation of the weapons store in Gurudin Town, so he rang the bell and called the butler Kidd. After hearing our questions, the big butler of the castle said directly: "In fact, usually This is what the chief does. He will call people from the weapons dealers in the town and ask them to bid together. Whoever bids the highest price will sell it. "
This method was simple, and we all raised our hands to express approval, so we asked Butler Kidd to help us contact the buyers from the weapons shops. After that, we asked Kidd in detail about the situation of the potion shops in the town. Kidd was so exaggerated that he was like a super notepad, describing the situation of the potion shops in Gurudin Town one by one. 8. Next, we were introduced to several very powerful auction houses.
After lunch, the four of us left the Kurtz family’s castle and merged into the flow of people on the street.
In Gurudin Town, the largest number are potion shops and leather shops. These firms are basically trading firms between humans and orcs at the same time. These firms purchase various herbal medicines from the orcs all year round. , leather, rare ores, magic materials, magic cores, magic crystals, etc. are sold to the human race, and then magic structures, exquisite magic tools, and some daily luxuries, etc. are transported back from the human race, and now Taking advantage of the great famine, they began to transport food here again.
Soon after, we appeared on the busiest main street in the center of the town and walked out of a shop. The plaque above the shop was written in both Orc and Imperial languages as "Fenghuiyuan Magic Potion Shop". According to Kidd, this is one of the largest magic potion shops in Guluding Town. We continued to walk west along the street with a little regret. This is the seventh magic potion shop we have inquired about, but these magic potion shops either do not do business with ice grass or are out of stock. The Fenghuiyuan Magic Potion Shop that just walked out expressed great regret. It happened that a magician who came from Sloyt City a few days ago bought all the ice grass that was not much in the shop.
Yes, our goal in Guluding Town this time is very clear, that is, we want to buy some rare magic herbs - ice grass. Use it to enhance the power of our frost scrolls. At present, all we can rely on is the frost trap made with frost scrolls. So we need more ice grass and try to make more frost scrolls that enhance the freezing attribute.
We are not sure if we can wipe out those swamp zombies. We originally planned to try our luck in the town of Guludin to see if we can wait for Sister Guoguo and her Wind Chaser Adventure Group. If we can invite Viru and his people to go to the Drowned Pond on the edge of the Death Swamp to hunt the swamp zombies there, things will be much simpler.
But if we can't wait for Viru and his adventure group during the time we stay in the town of Guludin, then we won't stay too long. We are still with a group of orc refugees waiting for food and drink. Staying here for one more day will waste more food. It is better for us to go to the swamp by ourselves and explore how to deal with the swamp zombies. Since Kuz and I cooperated with each other and successfully hunted the lone magic antelopes and wind wolves, and later successfully hunted three small groups of magic antelopes, our self-confidence has been greatly expanded.
We also need to order a batch of customized beast clamps from the blacksmith shop. This small beast clamp will add two small hooks at both ends of the clamp according to our design requirements, so that it will be more convenient to install the scroll on the beast clamp.
Walking and chatting on the bustling street, Kuz told us about his childhood happiness based on his childhood memories. While talking, he also bought four guava fruits from a werewolf child with a basket of green fruits on his head. They tasted a bit like eggplant. We finally came to the largest magic potion store in the town. This is a magic potion store specializing in rare herbs. The plaque clearly reads "Golden Pill Magic Potions Store".
"What do you need? Our store only purchases and sells magic herbs of first-level quality or above." A human maid stood at the door. I finally saw a familiar smile on her face. It was the most common smile I saw in the previous world. It was a professional smile. It was like a woman with a smiling mask. Whether she was facing a wealthy businessman or a wandering beggar, she could naturally raise her smile in the next moment.
I can't tell whether I dislike or like it, but I was in a trance when I saw such a professional waiter here.
"We want to buy some ice grass. Do you have any here?"
The one who spoke was Qi Ge. She walked on the street wearing a set of dedication magic suit. The eye-catching black and white striped suit told everyone who knew a little about the magic academy: I am a magic student of the magic academy and a magician. She stood up to buy ice grass, so she didn't need to find any reason. It can be said that buying an expensive ice grass is to give it to her mentor, or, magicians buy precious ice grass. There is no need for any reason. If you need it, just buy it!
The maid looked at us with some surprise, but it was only a fleeting moment. Obviously, she underestimated our purchasing power. She didn't expect that we asked for the best herb among the first-level magic herbs - ice grass.
"Ah! Please follow me. It just so happens that we just received a batch of excellent quality ice grass in our store yesterday. However, the orcs on the Pai Plateau have been busy with spring hunting recently, and ice grass has been out of stock for a long time. Now the price of ice grass has been driven up very high." The maid took us into the small hall inside the shop, introduced the situation of ice grass to us, and asked Qi Ge: "Besides ice grass, do you need other magic herbs?"
We walked into this small hall that looked like a secret room. There was a mahogany round table in the center of the small hall of less than ten square meters, and several wooden chairs with backrests were placed around it. After we sat down one after another, Qi Ge looked up and said to her: "Let's take a look at the ice grass first!"
The maid only said: "Please wait!" and turned to leave.
Not long after, an old man of the human race came in after opening the curtain, and politely said to us: "Long wait! Long wait!"
The maid behind him was holding a wooden tray, on which was carefully placed a piece of red cloth. On the red cloth were three boxes carved from cold jade. The ice grass that grows in extremely cold areas is a cool herb and needs to be stored in a cooler place to preserve its medicinal properties. The boxes made of cold jade are the most suitable containers for storing ice grass. These cold jades are also magical materials. When making milky white ink, cold jade powder is also used. The price of cold jade powder in the market is not expensive, but the price of cold jade is not low. Such a square box about one foot long is worth at least thirty silver coins.
The old man didn't waste words. He opened the lids of the three boxes one by one and began to introduce the three ice grasses. Because the size, number of leaf pods and number of flower buds of each ice grass were different, the prices of the three ice grasses were slightly different when they were quoted. But after hearing the price quoted by the old man, our faces were a little ugly. All these subtle expressions were seen by the human old man calmly.
We really didn't think that ice grass would be so expensive. Obviously, in the wilderness, the minotaur herbalist gave us a great favor. The price of the three ice grasses was three gold and fifteen silver, three gold and eighteen silver, and three gold and forty-seven silver. Basically, the price of each ice grass has reached more than three gold. With such a high price, if the ice grass is mixed with milky white ink and a frost scroll is made to hunt demon antelopes, it will not make much money.
After seeing the quality of the ice grass, in order to maintain the ice attribute of the ice grass, the old man closed the lids of the cold jade boxes again.
"Everyone, let's discuss it. Which one do you like?" The old man asked Qi Ge with a smile.
Seeing that we were all a little hesitant and didn't say anything, the old man quickly changed his tone and said with a smile: "If we rush in the summer, the price of ice grass can be reduced by 20%! If you don't want to continue, you might as well wait for two months!"
Qi Ge frowned and looked at the old man and said: "Why not hurry? Just a few boxes? Are there any others?"
"Are you not satisfied with the quality of these ice grasses? The quality of the remaining ice grasses is not much different from these three!" The old man hurriedly explained.
"Then bring up five more..."
The old man was stunned, and then his surprise turned into joy. He hurriedly called the maid next to him to go to the back warehouse to take out the ice grass. He never thought that we, who seemed insignificant, were such big customers. In the end, we paid a total of 26 gold coins, bought eight ice grasses, and left. This transaction alone used up all the gold coins we had.
For an ordinary orc, twenty-six gold coins would take at least twenty years to save without eating or drinking. Then, we bought a wide variety of magic materials in various material stores in the town. Finally, we followed the route described by Butler Kidd and came to a narrow street. There were small workshops and leather shops on both sides of the street. Turbid sewage flowed out of these shops and gathered in the dark drains on the street. The stench of the sewage made pedestrians on the street cover their noses. We went around in the town to find the leather shop in a remote area. Kuz swore that he was very familiar with this town, but when we walked into the low-rise residential area in the west, there were so many intricate paths that we couldn’t count them. For a moment, we were actually lost.
We originally wanted to find a leather shop, which was a leather workshop called "Three Earth Bears". The owner was a very famous leather master. The leather armor he made was not only beautiful in appearance, but also solid and durable. He would ingeniously adjust the movable parts of the leather armor according to each person's physical characteristics. The leather armor sewn out would be very comfortable to wear and would not affect one's agility at all. This leather master is said to have processed the bear skins of three Earth Bears, so the name of the shop was changed to "Three Earth Bears".
From the lion-tiger bandits in the wilderness, we not only received exquisitely crafted weapons and twenty-four gold coins (most of the money used to buy ice grass was used here), but also a complete fire lizard leather and a magic core. After asking Kidd about the market for making leather armor, we decided to come here and make a set of tight leather armor with that piece of fire lizard leather. Originally, Kuz and Qige agreed to make a full-coverage set for me, because I was injured the most, loved adventure the most, and was the most troublesome.
However, I thought about it again and again and refused. The reason I convinced them was simple. I have the talent of "self-healing". In addition, I am going to be a magician. I will wear magic robes to chase girls at the gate of the War College in the future. How can I wear leather armor? Then I gave the fire lizard skin to Katarina. This time I came to the leather master to make a set of fire lizard tight leather armor for Katarina.
