Chapter 957: The Gambling Contract (Page 1/1)

"So there is no loophole in the Continental Law, but because the bard profession is almost extinct, the Continental Law has eliminated this profession. Alfie felt that this explanation was more reasonable, and then he added in a low voice: "No wonder when I prepared the Divine Aobo Gravel Elixir up to level twelve, I was not attacked by the laws of the continent. ”

"Whatever you want, this is your chance, how about it? Now you understand how important this recipe is to you, right? A Sanctuary-level potion recipe recognized by the laws of the continent, as long as you can make a Sanctuary-level potion according to the formula, then you will become the second Sanctuary-level potion in the entire continent after Madison. With Madison's departure from the Imperial Capital unknown, you can imagine how lofty your position in the Imperial Capital will be in the future!" Willy said with bewilderment.

"But...... Although it may not be recognized by continental law, I still feel that the profession of bard is more suitable for me. Alfie hesitated, at least for now, there was no class comparable to the Bard who could control the powers of the three main gods.

"So you're not willing to close the deal?" asked Willy, looking disappointed.

Alfie couldn't help but wonder how important the deal was. The practical value of the powerful corrosive potion was really limited, and in Alfie's opinion, the symbolism was more than the practical use, and he couldn't understand why Willy didn't hesitate to exchange a Sanctuary-level potion recipe for such a finished product.

Alfie thought for a moment and replied, "It's not impossible to close this deal, but I wonder why you have to close it." ”

"Didn't you just take out this potion and ask me if I was interested in buying it? Could it be that I remembered it wrong?" Willy looked curious.

"That ......" Alfie was speechless for a while, and he actually forgot about the stubble, "Actually, I wanted to sell this bottle of potion for some money!"

Willy looked at Alfie's embarrassed expression and was speechless for a while, he sighed and asked, "Do you know the value of this bottle of potion?"

"Why don't you exchange a few hundred ......" Alfie asked tentatively looking at Willy's expression, he wasn't sure about the value of this potion.

"Hundreds, no! for a few thousand gold coins!" Willie interrupted Alfie, shouting bitterly.

"Thousands, gold, gold?" Alfie's tongue began to knot, and his heart almost jumped out of his mouth with excitement. He just wanted to say that there were hundreds of silver coins, but he didn't expect to be directly multiplied by Willy a thousand times.

"Now you understand why I'm bartering with you with a formula, right?" asked Willie, looking at a red-faced Alfie with excitement, "With my years of experience, only this recipe is worth as much as this potion to you." ”

"Actually, I prefer glittering gold coins...... "Alfie said with a flushed face, now feeling like a vulgar villain.

"Then it can't be helped. Willie silently put away the recipe with a disappointed face.

"Why can't you trade it for gold?" Alfie asked, puzzled.

"First of all, aside from the nowhere to be found in Madison, the value of this potion recipe can only be maximized in your hands. Willie patiently explained, "In the eyes of others, this recipe is precious but worthless. And I am a businessman, and I am born to sell every item of goods to the person who can make the most profit. ”

"Well, I can understand that, but how can you be sure that this recipe will make the most profit for me? I'm not a pharmacist. Alfie asked, puzzled.

"I'll give you the answer later. Willy said unhurriedly: "The second and most important reason is that the current liquidity of the Scarlet Rose is not that much, so we can't trade directly with gold coins." ”

"What? Are you kidding? This is the original Rui...... How could Princess Etheline's estate be so down?" Elfie shouted in disbelief.

"You also know that this is Princess Etheline's inheritance, and what else do you know?" Willy's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard the long-lost name.

"I remember saying that this was the biggest jewelry store in the Imperial Capital—wait a minute—isn't it—" Alfie's eyes widened as he spoke, and he finally knew why something had always felt a little wrong: it was clearly a grocery store now, and there was still a half-cent jewelry store.

"Looks like you've finally found out. After Princess Etheline's disappearance, the Scarlet Rose has long since lost its former glory, and now it has been reduced from a luxury jewelry store to a barter grocery store!" Willy said with a sad and indignant face, "Otherwise, how could I have traded old and new coins with the scumbags of Fett, which is a felony in the Empire!"

"Huh. Alfi smiled and comforted, "At least for Princess Etheline's sake, the people of the empire shouldn't embarrass you because of this." ”

"That's right, but that's all!" Willie said through gritted teeth, "The Blood Rose has fallen to such a point, and it has nothing to do with the suppression of those people in the royal family!"

Alfie was silent after hearing this, after all, this was Rebecca's family matter, and he was not qualified to comment on anything. After Rebecca's disappearance, Fred the Great, who robbed her of the succession to the throne, did not completely erase the Scarlet Rose from the imperial capital, which was already very shameful.

Willy seemed to sense his gaffe, and said with a dry laugh: "There is no need to mention the past, I believe that one day Princess Etheline will come back to seek justice!"

'You'll get your wish soon!' Alfie replied silently in his heart, then raised his head and smiled at Willy: "Boss Willy, I agree to trade with you, and I am also willing to trade a bottle of Divine Aobo Gravel Elixir for a real magnifying glass!"

Willy plucked his ears in disbelief, seemingly startled by Alfie's sudden turn, and grinned when he confirmed that Alfie was serious and not joking.

Alfie was taken aback by Willy's exaggerated smile and wondered if he was sick. Willy's mouth was almost grinning to the back of his head, and even his crooked yellow teeth were exposed.

"Boss Willy, are you alright?" Alfie asked cautiously, he was afraid that Willy would be too excited and turn his back on him, with his age, he couldn't stand this kind of stimulation, and Alfie might have to have a lawsuit because of this!

"It's okay, of course it's okay!" Willy forced his smile and shouted at the corner of the grocery store, "You can come out, I should have won this bet, right?"
