Just after noon, the streets of the Azcatra shopping district were bustling with activity. As the seventh largest city in the continent of Feren, the variety of goods here is beyond imagination, vegetables, fruits, jewelry, art, even people, and of course, a large amount of gold, as long as you have enough money, you can buy everything except magic, and even rare specialties brought back from the far west Aztec continent. In terms of the size of the market, it is at least twice as large as Waterwater.

Looking at the golden-peaked temple as big as a small town, Henry couldn't help but sigh that the goddess of commerce, Workin, was really unlucky, there was such a glorious sanctuary, but there were not enough priests and believers. Ever since she was imprisoned by Grazt, her influence had been declining every day, and the huge temple had not even been able to fit ten priests.

After all, the Faeron Continent is still very primitive and crude in nature, and the Church of Workin without sufficient military protection is like an unlocked ATM, and as long as the mad cult of the evil god is short of money, the first thing that comes to mind is to loot the temple of the goddess of commerce, because there is usually a large amount of gold and jewelry inside.

However, Henry's visit to the mall was not to cooperate with the Church of Commerce, but to go to the Adventurers' Market, where he would make a message and hire a group of experienced adventurers. He doesn't ask these people to give. Whatever damage Irenikas can do, as long as it speeds up the search.

After all, this is not a game, and the elven city built on the canopy of trees must be quite complicated, and it will definitely take plenty of people to find the necessary things inside.

As soon as I stepped through the gate, there was a lot of noise inside, one of which sounded particularly harsh. It seems to be a fierce bargain with the boss.

"Libod! You're a profiteer! Look at these armors. At least eighty percent of them are new. You only gave less than a fifth of the price, which is simply stingy to the home. ”

"Wow! You call this goblin a thing that you wear eighty percent new? Look at the rust and stains on it, I bet no one would buy it if they didn't clean it up. Don't try to raise the price, I won't get out of any more copper plates. ”

Obviously, the guy who spoke was the owner of the Adventurer's Bazaar, the legendary adventurer Libod. It is said that he did a lot of earth-shattering things when he was younger, and those magic items were the spoils and rewards he received in the process.

This man was quite famous among Am's adventurers, and many nobles and merchants would come to ask for advice with a gift when they were in trouble. Hoping to find a solution, he has never let anyone down, and he can always find something that has been overlooked from the clues.

In addition, many adventurers come from other places every year to see the main characters of the minstrels' stories.

"Okay...... All right...... Don't get excited, just go for the price you say. But you can't keep the price too low, or we won't sell them. "The people who sell things are still holding on and trying to find a difference in the price of other goods.

Henry recognized at a glance that the strangely dressed dwarf was none other than Yao En, a self-proclaimed inventor, who was now lying on the counter waving his fists and haggling. Behind him stood the dragon girl Hina and the holy warrior girl Selly Lef. From the appearance of several of them, it can be seen that they have definitely just returned from outside the city.

Maybe it's some quest to exterminate monsters or bandits. Maybe it's to help the surrounding villages and towns eliminate the threat, but in short, it shouldn't be a difficult battle, because the three guys basically didn't suffer any damage from top to bottom, except for a little mental exhaustion, the rest of the qiē is fine.

Yao En, who was concentrating on raising the price, obviously did not notice that an acquaintance was coming, and boasted about the color and size of the gem, as if he was not selling some ordinary rough stones snatched from the monsters, but a treasured treasure that had been cut.

The boss Li Bode rubbed his forehead helplessly, and it is estimated that he wants to strangle the dwarf in front of him. After so many years in business, he has seen almost all kinds of adventurers, and many of them are calculating, but it is the first time that they have been so verbose.

You know, the combined price of these things is less than a hundred gold coins, and this damn dwarf has been raising the price for half an hour. Every time that mouth opened, he felt the urge to rush over and smash the other person's face.

Just as Libold was about to collapse, Henry laughed and waved, shouting, "Hey! Look who this is, the great itinerant vegetable vendor and dwarf inventor – Yaoen! ”

"Who? Who's looking for me? Yao En immediately turned his head and looked around, and soon he found his target. Oh, my God! You're back. You must know that my income has really plummeted these days, and I am about to go bankrupt. ”

He jumped up and gave Henry a warm hug, and then, while pretending to weep bitterly, he quietly pointed at Seile Leph, who had not yet come to her senses, and lowered his voice and complained: "That girl always returns what others have paid, and I am almost tormented and crazy." ”

"Look at it, the paladins are almost like this, not to mention that Selilev was born in Heavenly Mountain since she was a child, and she has no concept of money at all. Maybe you should let her go away for a while when you get paid, so it's much better. With that, Henry patted the dwarf on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.

Generally speaking, as long as the paladin is not poor and cannot afford to eat, there is an eighty percent chance that he will refuse to receive payment after completing the task of fighting evil. It is said that this will make them more pure, and prevent them from being distracted by something like gold coins that can easily cause depravity.

Of course, this situation is not absolute. In general, the richer the paladin, the more likely it is to refuse to be paid, and the poor paladin will make decisions based on the economic strength of the employer, if it is a wealthy merchant and nobleman, then they will more or less take a part, and if it is a commoner, then it is possible to take nothing.

Obviously, Yao En and the others did not have enough fame and no introduction, so the hired person could never be too wealthy, so Seile Love did not hesitate to return most of the remuneration. This led to the dissatisfaction of the greedy dwarfs.

"Okay. Count me out of luck. Yao En said with a bitter face.

Seeing the dwarf's depressed expression. Henry laughed: "Haha, okay, be happy, because there is a big business to be done soon, and I promise that as long as I can survive, I promise to make a lot of money." ”

As soon as he heard the big business, Yao En's eyes instantly lit up: "Really?!! ”

"Of course! I'm here to issue commissions and hire experienced adventurers. Saying that, Henry turned around and asked the boss Libod, "I think you should have an intermediary business here, right?" ”

"That's right. Mage, Warrior, Priest, Rogue, Bard, Druid, Ranger. As long as you ask, I can reach out to a large number of good people at any time. But the price...... "Libold smiled with a philistine smile on his face. His meaning is obvious, to take a large amount of intermediary fees from it.

Henry shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "No problem. Say, how much are you going to smoke? ”

"Ten percent warriors, twenty-five percent mages, twenty-five percent priests, seventeen percent bards and thieves, and fifteen percent for the rest. In addition to this, you will also have to bear the cost of food during your employment, at least five silver coins per day. Our fees are simple. Depending on the class, there is a fixed price for each level. Here's a breakdown that you can take a look at first. With that, Libold took out a thick roster from under the counter and placed it on the table.

Yao En just glanced at it and immediately cried out, "Oh my God! This is nothing short of naked robbery. No, more than a robbery. ”

Libold laughed and nodded, "That's right, my friend. Hiring skilled mercenaries and adventurers is very expensive, because the people we introduce are absolutely reliable and don't loot employers like the one out there. ”

Henry just smiled and shook his head at this promise, neither refuting nor affirming. He knew very well that there must be a degree to this, and once the value of the employer's property exceeded the sum of the commission and credit, then those sweet-blooded guys would never mind taking a vote and then leaving the country.

But in general, as long as you don't show off too much, then there will be no surprises, at least a hundred times stronger than those in the tavern. What's more, this time it's a hired manpower to fight.,The monsters are all difficult characters.,It's good to come back alive one-fifth.,The rest have to be explained on the battlefield.。

Thinking of this, he closed the roster and asked, "How much does it cost to hire all the occupations above the fifth level?" I need an accurate number. ”

"The gods are above! You are crazy! Yao En jumped in surprise.

You must know that there are at least forty people on this list who meet this condition, and according to the calculation that a fifth-level warrior needs twenty gold coins per day, it is eight hundred gold coins a day, plus the high price of the caster's profession and the intermediary fee, the commission alone will cost about two thousand per day.

Henry shook his head sternly: "No, I'm not crazy, this is a real need." I'm sure you've heard rumors that two armies of monsters are heading for the elven city of Sodenisra, and my purpose is to stop them. Due to the danger of this operation, I am willing to pay all the money in one go, and I am sure that you will be able to send this money to their families. Is that right? ”

Libod's eyes trembled and he asked, "You don't want to drag everyone to death, do you?" ”

"Of course not! The armies I mobilized are estimated to arrive in the next two days, including the Knights of the Warmest Heart and the Masked Mage Guild, and there will definitely be thousands of troops at that time, and with the strength of the elves, it is absolutely impossible to die in vain. Henry patiently explained. He knew very well that it was impossible for adventurers and mercenaries to accept mortal missions, because only by living could they get a qiē, and if they died, they would have nothing.

"Looks like you're well prepared. Okay, I'll try to contact someone right away, but since the amount of business is a bit large, you'll have to pay a deposit of 50,000 gold coins first. Libold opened his mouth directly.

"Give, the bill of exchange of the Merchants Alliance, fifty thousand gold coins, you can go to the chamber of commerce headquarters in the city at any time to redeem it. But I have a request, one day at most, and by tomorrow afternoon, I'm going to see enough people coming. Don't look for some ordinary guys to make up the numbers, I just want the elite. After saying that, Henry directly put twenty-five bills of exchange with a face value of two thousand gold coins on the table, and then took the other three away.

Before leaving, Yao En did not forget to take the few gems and a small bag of gold coins that were placed on the table......

Looking at the backs of everyone gradually disappearing, Li Bode clenched his fists excitedly: "It seems that some of them are busy today, I hope to come more tomorrow afternoon, such a big business is rare......

A few minutes later, a flock of carrier pigeons was released through the back door of the Adventurer's Bazaar. They galloped in different directions, one of their paws dyed bright red to symbolize an emergency. (To be continued......)
