Chapter 184 (1/2)
Amen's Bazaar is built in a large area. It is said to be a bazaar. In fact, it is only an area across four streets. All goods are sold in shops rather than in the open air.
”Celestite!” Looking at the ore placed in the counter of an ore shop in horror, Suoga couldn't help exclaiming. Such a precious ore was even found in such an insignificant shop.
Seeing Soga's surprise, the shop owner warmly welcomed him, rubbed his hands and said, ”what do you like, sir? Is it this celestite? It's very cheap, just 1000 diamond coins! ”
”What!” Hearing the boss's words, Soga couldn't help shouting. You know, a diamond coin is equal to one hundred Amethyst coins, ten thousand crystal coins, equal to one million gold coins! Such a small stone is worth a billion gold coins!
Looking at Soga's shocked look, the boss said displeased: ”my guest, don't be too expensive. This day's crystal stone can forge the top materials of legendary or even epic suits. This price is absolutely not expensive!”
”Ha ha...” with a wry smile, Soga looked bitter. The boss said that this celestite seems not expensive, but you know, the metal extracted from such a celestite can only make a ring at most. If you want to make magic equipment above legendary level, you also need a top gem, and the price is endless.
Seeing Soga's wry smile, Nicole quietly gathered around Soga and said, ”please, boss, don't embarrass us. It's not like the holy light here. The money of the holy light is worthless. Most countries in the world circulate crystal coins. A crystal coin can be exchanged for 100 gold coins.”
He nodded bitterly. In fact, Soga already knew this fact. The Shengguang empire is too small and the economy is underdeveloped, so inflation is very serious. Once it is exchanged with foreign countries, no one is willing to exchange one hundred yuan for another.
Although it is said to be gold coins, in fact, the money of Shengguang empire is made of copper, thin and light. The so-called gold coins actually refer to metal coins, not gold coins.
After a little estimation, Soga has only 10 billion gold coins left after helping Nicole pay the money. If it is converted into diamond coins, it can be converted into 10000 diamond coins. You can buy ten celestites, but ten celestites don't seem to be enough to buy too many materials!
A pair of combat boots and a pair of combat pants need to consume a lot of materials, and... Soga also wants to bring more precious metals into the great trade route. After all... Who knows if there will be more partners in the future, and... Soga's Alchemy also needs a lot of precious metals to be tested.
While thinking, Soga turned and walked out of the shop. First, Nicole led him to the bank to exchange all his money into diamond coins. Looking at a large bag of diamond coins, Soga and his party continued to turn.
Until noon, the party came to the tavern with a bitter smile, but no one was in the mood to drink. They just sat in the tavern after filling their belly.
After walking around the market for half a day, everyone suddenly found that the cheapest things that can be sold here are also worth hundreds of diamond coins. If you look at them a little, you have to pay thousands of diamond coins!
Moreover, the most excessive thing is that, like the celestite, although it sells 1000 diamond coins, if you really want to buy enough materials to make a pair of boots, you have to buy 100 copies, which requires 100000 diamond coins, but Soga currently has only 10000, and you can't even buy a pair of boots.
Moreover, after inquiry, if you want to customize the equipment, you have to pay 10000 diamond coins just for the production cost. Add all the money on hand, which is just enough for the production cost.
At present, Roger has no money, Nicole has no money, not to mention Xiang Yun. Only Soga has some money, but it is not enough, so the four people have to worry in the tavern.
Originally, Soga also wanted to sell potions here, but in fact, there are already potions sold here, which are produced by Soga Bailou. As for other spiritual potions, magic potions and physical potions, Soga doesn't want to sell more. Otherwise, once they fall into the hands of the enemy, won't it make trouble for himself?
After thinking for a while, Suo Jiameng gritted his teeth. Now, forced and helpless, he had to sell some. Although he knew that these drugs would fall into the hands of others, so far, it's the only way.
Thinking, Soga turned his head, looked at Niko and said, ”Niko... Is there an auction house in Amen?”
Looked at Soga suspiciously, and Niko said, ”it's strange that you asked. How can there be no auction house in such a commercial city? Even if there are things in a small city, there will be no less here.”
With a deep nod, Soga stood up and said, ”in that case, all right... Let's go with me. Let's go to the auction house. In order to collect all the equipment for Roger, we must sell something.”
While talking, Soga stood up and walked outside the tavern. The other three dared not neglect. They followed Soga and walked towards the auction. They were very curious. What did Soga sell? You know... There are priceless treasures everywhere. Auction houses don't accept ordinary things.
All the way to the auction house, Soga directly found the receptionist of the auction house and said he wanted to auction something. Facing Soga's application, the receptionist said in a formulaic way: ”well, now... Please take out the items you want to auction, and we will have experts to identify the items. Only when you reach a certain level can you auction here!”
Nodded slightly, Soga took out several belts from the space ring, threw them on the table and said, ”look, this is what I want to sell.”
Glancing at the belt, the auctioneer said lazily, ”Oh? Is it a four-color potion produced by the city of light? Sorry, the grade is too low to be qualified to auction in the auction house! ”
”What!” Hearing what the auctioneer said, Suoga was shocked. How is this possible? He has never sold four-color medicine. It should be enough for auction.
While thinking, Soga suddenly recalled that there were four-color potions in the hands of 36 six winged Phoenix angels, and... There were also a large number of four-color potions in 5000 spearmen and 5000 swift dragon riders in dawn city. Now it seems that they obviously could not withstand the temptation of money and revealed the four-color potions against Soga's order.
While thinking, Soga couldn't help hating his teeth. These hateful guys seemed to ignore what he said at that time. Since they dared to disobey his orders, they were waiting to be punished. Although Soga doesn't have this ability yet, one day, they will be punished!
While thinking about hate, the auctioneer disdained: ”although your four-color potion is effective, its effect is too small. You know, the lowest level that can enter the great business road is also the magician level. The supplement amount of the four-color potion is too small to be worth too much money.”
Hearing the auctioneer's words, Soga felt a little moved. When he was in dawn City, the recovery amount of the four-color potions he made was really small. After all... The supplement amount of these four-color potions is only 20% of the total magic of a magician.
At that time, Soga was already a great magician, but there was no refined magic potion, which could hold so much energy. In terms of today's Soga, even drinking ten bottles could not make up half of the magic, and the effect was very small, so the value must not be high.
But the refined medicine is different. The refined medicine refines, purifies and compresses the medicine. Although it is still such a large volume, the pure medicine can supplement a lot of energy. Even Soga's current magic only needs to drink a bottle to fill it up.
While thinking, Soga smiled and said, ”my friend, you probably misunderstood. My magic potion is not the magic potion you've seen before. It's a refined magic potion, and the supplement is ten times that of an ordinary magic potion!”
