Chapter 319 320.Business 2

"No problem! I'm also very interested in some of the goods you shipped." Roy said to Andre, the manager of the business group.

The two hit it off almost immediately.

Andrew checked a few more bundles of magic herbs and felt that there was nothing wrong with them, so he asked his entourage to go back to the merchant ship to find ten crew members who could identify magic herbs.

Roy felt that the armors needed by the resistance could be purchased from merchant ships, so bartering would be more cost-effective.

Roy invited Andre back to the deck of the Black Pearl and asked him:

"Are you from the Green Empire?"

Andre nodded and said: "Our merchant ship set off from the Green Empire's Qiyan Port and after two years of sailing, it finally arrived in the Elf Continent."

Although Roy knew that the Elf Continent was very far away from the Human Continent, he never thought that he would have to sail on the sea for two years.

"It takes so long?" Roy exclaimed.

Although Andre, the steward of the merchant group, did not know much about navigation technology, he left many footprints along the way.

"Well, our five-masted sailing ship crossed the endless sea and passed dozens of islands. During this period, it went through several repairs and carried out a large-scale maintenance on the sailing ship. It took two years to reach the Elf Continent. That’s pretty fast in my opinion,” Andre said.

The translator on the side translated Andre's words, and Miss Tiffany couldn't help but ask:

"I heard that almost everyone in the Green Empire believes in the Statue of Liberty?"

When Andre heard this question, he stood up straight and answered with a very serious expression: "Yes, almost all the people in the Green Empire are believers of the Statue of Liberty. In our country, almost every town has a Statue of Liberty Temple, and some There are even several Statues of Liberty in the city at the same time..."

Andre was very talkative and told everyone about the customs and customs of the Green Empire.

It wasn't until ten crew members arrived from the merchant ship that Andre arranged work for them, mainly sorting magic herbs on the deck.

With the help of these ten crew members, sorting magic herbs suddenly became much faster.

Roy wanted to see the goods on the merchant ship, so he asked Andre:

"Can I see your stuff?"

Andre immediately said with a smile: "Of course, just list what you need and I will calculate it based on the lowest selling price."

After saying that, Andre, the steward of the business group, and Roy walked off the Black Pearl. Woods stayed on the Black Pearl. He and Sabrina took care of so many magical herbs.

Miss Tiffany, who was extremely curious, stopped Roy and expressed that she wanted to go to the merchant ship with him to see...

So, Miss Tiffany and Moira followed Roy back to the port terminal.

Accompanied by the steward Andre, Roy came to the stall at the port terminal again. This time Andre introduced these products to Roy. Roy was the first to stand in front of the pot stall. The elves usually I only eat fruits and fish and have little need for pots and pans.

These pots cannot be sold here in Castletown.

Roy first picked out a set of kitchen utensils, and then found some spices with Andre's introduction.

Miss Tiffany and Moira followed Roy, watching him open different bottles and jars, smelling the spices inside, and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Roy, you actually know spices?"

"Well, I read some introductions about spices in a book. It is said that these spices sprinkled on food will give the food a unique flavor..."

Roy introduced in a low voice.

"Like when you eat guava, you have to sprinkle salt on it?" Miss Tiffany asked.

"Roughly the same!"

After speaking, Roy put the selected products together.

As for the handicraft area surrounded by many elves, Roy didn't go there at all.

He walked to the stall selling weapons and armor. There weren't many elves here.

The crew member standing behind the cargo box looked at the steward Andre with some embarrassment, for fear of being reprimanded by Andre...

These weapons and armors can be said to be the most troublesome products for Manager Andre. He has been trying to sell these weapons and armors to the city's merchants in the past few days. Unfortunately, the elves do not like the weapons and armors they brought over at all, thinking that these weapons and armors are not worth mentioning. The armor and weapons are not beautiful enough, and no elves will buy them even if they are cheap.

Roy came to a row of weapon racks, where there were some exquisite long swords. Although there were no complicated patterns on the scabbards, these long swords looked okay.

He tried to pull a sword out of the scabbard. There was a thoughtful pop-up design on the spring, which allowed Roy to pull out the long sword made of fine steel very easily...

The cold light on the blade could clearly reflect half of Roy's face.

Although he didn't know whether this long sword was considered an exquisite long sword, Roy still asked Andre:

"How to sell these long swords?"

"This type of weapon does not come with magic. When making the blade, some magic black iron and three magic crystals were mixed in each."

Roy casually took out a handful and placed it in the pile of goods he was about to buy.

Then he asked Andre: "Where's the chainmail?"

"These chainmails are made of woven steel wire. They are not filled with any magic materials and will not be able to be inscribed in the future. If this chainmail is paired with trousers and combat boots, it will contain a set of four magic crystals." Andre said.

Roy didn't even choose, he just picked up a piece of chain mail. This thing was relatively heavy and felt heavy in his hand.

He crossed the spear weapon rack and shield area and stood directly in front of a row of short bows made of metal. The elves here made bows and arrows from various precious trees. It is rare to see short bows made of this kind of metal. bow.

The arms of the alloy bow are two spring leaves with very good elasticity, but Roy doesn't quite understand these...

"These are...?" Roy pointed to the alloy bow and asked the crew member responsible for selling the alloy bow.

"Alloy bows are much better than ordinary hardwood bows." The salesman explained seriously.

"How much does this kind of bow cost?" Roy didn't want to buy it, he just asked casually.

"One magic crystal stone, two bows, each bow comes with two quivers, and each quiver contains fifty arrows."

The crew member's answer made Roy stop. Roy's eyes fell on the alloy bow with a frosted surface.

Seeing the surprise in Roy's eyes, the crew member quickly added weakly: "If you want to buy it, the price can be lowered."

Roy only took one piece of long sword, chain mail, and alloy bow.

Because he didn't know much about how to identify this type of weapons and armor, he only bought one. It was obvious that both weapons and armor were much cheaper than those in the Castletown weapons store...

Seeing Roy shopping here and there, only buying one item of each item, Andre didn't pay much attention. He just thought that Roy might be feeling novel and wanted to buy something...

Andre didn't adjust the price quoted by the crew at the stall. After all, he didn't buy much!

Afterwards, Roy quickly made a detailed list and handed it to Andre, telling him that he could use this document to make deductions when trading magic herbs.

Director Andre really wanted to say, 'As long as you are willing to sell those magic herbs to me, I can give these items to you...'

But after thinking about it, Andre still held back.

…

The Elf Academy is about to start.

Before each term begins, the Elf Academy Adventure Group holds a small gathering in the tavern next to the library.

Although Roy, Sabrina, and Woods have officially withdrawn from the Elf Academy Adventure Group, their connection with each other has not diminished at all.

When Roy pushed open the wooden door of the pub and walked in, he happened to catch a glimpse of the bartender inside the bar. The bartender wiped the glass while waving to Roy and pointing to the corner of the room inside.

Roy quickly ran over, and sure enough he saw Instructor Nora, Instructor Eleanor, Instructor Gru, and Instructor Virgil playing cards around a small table.

"Oh, Roy, why are you here?"

Nora raised her head and said hello to Roy.

"I'm actually here to ask the instructors for advice!"

After Roy finished speaking, he sat down quietly next to the small tea table.

Instructor Nora had already drawn a hand of bad cards. When he saw Roy running over, he quickly threw the bad cards in his hand into the card pool, stirred it up and said, "We'll play here for today, now let's see what Roy finds." What do we want to do?"

"Hey! Nora, you are too cunning!"

The other three instructors shouted.

Roy first pulled out a long sword from his magic belt bag, handed it to Instructor Vergil, and said to him with a smile: "Instructor Vergil, can you help check the quality of this weapon?"

Instructor Vergil took the long sword smoothly, pulled the long sword out of the scabbard, and kept tapping the blade with one finger.

The crisp sound is endless...

"The sound of the blade is very clear, and the steel mouth is not bad. It's a bit ugly, but it's still usable." Instructor Virgil replied.

"What if we want to grade this long sword? What do you think of it?" Roy said.

"It can only be regarded as an exquisite long sword at best. Roy, haven't you been using the sacred scepter recently? Why do you plan to wear a long sword?" Instructor Vergil asked.

Roy shook his head and explained: "I just want to see the quality of this weapon."

"It's a sophisticated weapon." Instructor Vergil said with certainty.

Roy took out another set of chain armor and placed it on the small table. Instructor Nora frowned and said, "I can't feel the slightest bit of magic. This should be an ordinary chain armor."

Roy handed another alloy bow to Instructor Gru and asked him to help identify it.

"Oh, it's actually a metal bow. It has a lot of pulling power and is much better than ordinary hardwood bows." Instructor Gru said.

Sure enough, the instructors know this better, and the price is very cheap.

Roy then asked the instructors a few more questions, and finally decided to buy a batch of weapons and armor from merchant ships.

"Roy, how was this plane trip?" Instructor Nora asked curiously.

"It went pretty smoothly." Roy replied honestly.

"Roy, martial arts training courses are no longer suitable for you after school starts. Which martial arts course do you want to take?" Instructor Nora asked him.

Roy replied: "I haven't thought about it yet."

Instructor Nora continued: "Since you have formed an adventure group now, I suggest you learn some ranger skills from Eleanor..."

Roy and the four instructors were chatting...

Miss Scarlett, Miss Christine, and the two new members of the adventure group walked into the tavern one after another.

This time, Instructor Nora and the others went to the Rocky Mountain plane, and they really gained a lot.

After the party, everyone walked out of the pub one after another. Roy also drank two glasses of fruit wine and felt a little dizzy...

Miss Christine, wearing a white gauze dress, stood next to Roy and said to him:

"Roy, wait a minute."

Roy imitated the elf warriors of the 17th Legion, made a knightly salute to Miss Christine, and asked with a smile:

"What can I do for you? Miss Christine."

"this is for you."

Miss Christine's hands were exposed from her long sleeves, holding a parchment scroll in her hands.

Roy took it, unfolded it in his hand, and asked a little dullly:

"What's this?"

Then he saw a line of text written on the scroll, and he immediately woke up from the wine.

"...Business certificate from the Partington plane! How did you know I need this...Thank you so much." Roy said excitedly.

"it's nothing."

Miss Christine waved to Roy freely, turned around and boarded the carriage waiting on the street.

…

It has been four days since the Roy Adventure Group returned to Castletown City from the Partington plane.

After last night's hard work, these magic herbs have finally completed the final sorting, and are now neatly packed into wooden boxes. These wooden boxes have simple nameplates that introduce the types and quantities of the magic herbs.

Roy ran to the Black Pearl this morning, and Andre, the manager of the business group, was waiting on the west beach early.

Then they began to calculate the price. After some calculations, the price of this batch of magic herbs turned out to be as high as 3,653 magic crystals.

This selling price really shocked Roy. In fact, according to his thinking, as long as he could sell two thousand magic crystals for this batch of magic herbs, he would be very profitable. Unexpectedly, it actually tripled to more than three times.

Andre, the manager of the business group, readily took out a whole box of magic crystals, and then some crew members began to check the magic crystals.

"For those goods yesterday, even if we gave you free gifts, this time we need to pay another 3,650 magic crystals!" Andre said to Roy while holding the account book.

"Well, let's do the math. Yesterday I just took a few samples. Now we can talk about those long swords, chain armor, and alloy bows. I plan to purchase 135 sets of each." Roy stood Said next to the wooden box.

"Are you serious?" Andre asked Roy.

"That's right."

Roy nodded firmly...

"These long swords, chain armor and alloy bows are worth a thousand magic crystals in total. In this case, I only need to pay you two thousand six hundred and fifty magic crystals!" Andre said with some joy.

After deducting the cost of shipping these weapons and armor, the business group earned at least 500 magic crystals.
