Chapter 35: The Miser
The female shopkeeper with a good voice always looks like she can't do anything, eats apples, and wanders again.
A considerable part of the potions on the shelves are not labeled, and they are obviously privately configured, but there is an encyclopedia Homer, which can completely identify the category and quality, and Downton does not have to worry about buying scrap.
"Fast-acting magic energy potion, a fifty-milliliter bottle, after taking it, can make an empty demon's soul first-order magic energy replenish one-third of the magic energy in two seconds. ”
Listening to Homer's introduction, Downton took a test tube, looked at the light blue potion inside, shook it, there was no sediment, and then packed a hundred potions into the box.
"Powerful magic potions, twenty bottles, according to the standards issued by the Royal Pharmacy Society, under the same volume, their effect should be ten times that of fast-acting magic energy potions, to be considered up to the standard, but the quality of the potions here is very high, it should reach fifteen times. ”
The potion box is naturally made specifically for potions, and it is lined with a soft lining fabric and has a fixed rack, so you don't have to worry about fragile bottles shattering.
"Ten Swift Shadow Elixir that can increase running speed in a short period of time, thirty-five Stone Skin Elixirs, and primary Liliang Elixir, well, don't do this, your Hecules Radiant Blessing Liliang has a better effect, and all the primary agility elixirs. ”
Homer pointed out, enjoying the pleasure of shopping, and after only half an hour, Downton had filled six potions and bought two-thirds of the potions.
"I'm sorry!" Downton, who put away the quick-acting healing potion and closed the lid, walked to the counter to pay the bill, showing an embarrassed expression, Homer had just said that he was going to buy all the potions, but he didn't do it, which made him feel like he was talking big.
"You don't need daoqian, we're not such cautious women. The female shopkeeper of the wolf and spices was still as calm as ever, "Are you sure?" ”
"Is it okay to pay for gems?" Downton took out ten gems and placed them on the counter.
"Six is enough. The shopkeeper didn't reach for it at all, as if she didn't care, still biting on the apple, and the crisp sound echoed in the deserted pharmacy.
"The rest is the deposit, your next potion, I ordered. "Even without Homer's teachings, Downton would have paid a deposit, after all, for the quality of the potion, it was too cheap.
Even if Downton doesn't drink it himself, he will make a lot of money if he resells it.
"You're slow, our potions have already been sold. ”
Downton's face showed a look of disappointment, but he quickly concealed it, thinking that only he knew the secret of the wolf and spices, but he didn't expect that someone had already taken the lead.
"There are a lot of smart people on this shijie. Homer was not surprised by this, and when it saw that there were no high-grade potions on the shelves, it had already guessed the possibility.
Looking at the lonely figure who was about to walk out of the store with a potion box, the female shopkeeper was a little unbearable and suddenly spoke.
"Young man, you have a good eye, as a reward, next time, we will prepare some new improved potions, do you want to order?" The female shopkeeper's voice was full of natural flavor, like a big sister complimenting her brother and giving him candy cubes.
"Promise her!"
Without waiting for Downton to answer, Homer was already shaking slightly, reminding him that judging from the current quality of the potions, those improved potions must be very good, and even if he was deceived, with Downton's current value, he didn't care.
"Hmm!" Downton nodded, he wanted to know the name of the shopkeeper, but he really didn't know how to speak.
"Don't worry, I won't let you down, it's definitely an ultra-rare dragon-slaying elixir!" the female shopkeeper said, closed her eyes, took a nap, and cultivated her spirit for the upcoming journey.
Downton slowed down, left the pharmacy, and led the Black Emperor out for a while, and he couldn't help but look back.
"I don't know which guy is luckier than you to discover the secret of the wolf and spices. Homer was still sighing, seeing that Downton hadn't noticed at all, he sighed, "It's over, it's time to enter estrus early." ”
Bang, bang, Downton suddenly raised his hand and slapped it on his cheek, the hot pain made his trance-like nerves wake up.
"Am I under the spell of enchantment?" asked Downton as he opened the tome.
"Don't think about it, go buy supplies!" Homer, not going to be a psychiatrist, opened Downton, and put a list on the pages of the book with essential substances.
"Flour, olive oil, clean water, charcoal for heating and fire, this is enough for the entire residents of Morning Mist for half a year, and there is a huge reserve of armor, weapons, and magic stones, are you ready to start a small-scale war?"
Downton was shocked, although the war space of the Magic Book was opened, there was no need to fill it.
"Hmph, do you understand the sense of crisis? You must always have enough strategic supplies on hand so that you can survive if you can't get out of a secret situation. ”
If it weren't for the fact that the layout of Morning Mist Town was too small and the goods were insufficient, Homer could have given a more detailed list, the previous master, but in the war space, there were enough materials for 100,000 residents of a small principality to use for five years.
It's just that with the death of the master, the magic book is seriously damaged, and there is no magic stone to maintain the war space, in these thousands of years, all the materials in it have rotted, otherwise Downton can make a fortune.
"Buying all the supplies in the town at once will definitely cause price and people's turmoil, do you dislike me for being too comfortable and want the security team to arrest me?"
Downton vetoed Homer's proposal, and Zuihou, after discussion, decided to buy enough supplies for five hundred people to use for three months.
"Forget it, let's try to collect souls and build portals in dungeons and towns as soon as possible, so it will be a lot safer!"
Homer is quite happy with the result, Downton is still a rookie and needs to be adjusted slowly.
As the No. 1 merchant in Morningfog Town, Grande has the largest five chain shops, so it is naturally Downton's first choice.
"Are you sure you're not playing me?" the fat Grandet squinted at Downton.
He is worthy of being the first miser in the West, and he is still wearing the same linen robe that Downton wore last time he met him at the Golden Ivory Tavern, which was no more than fifty copper plates.
Not only are the buttocks white, but the two elbows are patched, which is shabby.
"I can pay first!" Downton took out the gem and shook it, proving his purchasing power.
"It can't be a thief, right?" said Grandet with his thumb outstretched, shaved his two well-trimmed beards under his nose, and rolled his little eyes.
They all live in the same town, not to mention that their son still troubles Downton every day, how could Grandet not know this guy who works as a postman.
Downton didn't answer, he turned around, he wasn't the only one in the town anyway.
"Wait, the deal is set. Like a toad, Grandet chased a few steps on his short legs and grabbed Downton.
"Seven percent off!" Downton immediately bargained.
"Absolutely not, the goddess is above, what I gave you is already the lowest price. "Like a cat that has been stepped on, Grandet almost jumped up and asked him to reduce the price, which was worse than asking for his life.
"Seven folds!" Downton is very persistent, with Grande's stingy character, he will never give up such a big business, even if it is five folds, he will earn to death.
"I can't even afford underwear at a loss. Grandet cried poor and began to babble about how hard it was for him to open these shops, and how difficult it was to do business in the past few years.
"You trick the undead into going!" Downton didn't bother to pay attention to him, although this guy was stingy, but he was famous for his business methods and talent for collecting money.
"Don't go, let's discuss it again, ninety-seven fold, right?" Grande seemed to see Huang Chengcheng's gold coins flying away, and quickly stopped Downton, "Come here and take a look, they are all antique collections I have collected from all over the world, and they are very valuable." ”
Grandet dragged Downton to the cedar shelves, pointing to the dazzling array of product introductions, which he often used, to stun his opponents with babbling words, and to sell more goods by the way, and to recover the difference in discounts on the other hand.
"These items are all dug up by adventurers from ancient ruins and various secret realms, and they are very collectible, if you meet a knowledgeable nobleman, you will definitely earn death. Grandet picked up a piece of jade carved leaf and almost clubbed it into Downton's eyes, "Look at how perfect the color of this jade is, look at the text on it, it is definitely elven language, if it is cracked, it may be a dragon-slaying magic." ”
The Western Earth Continent has a history of more than 100,000 years of civilization, wars, epidemics, and various disasters have caused many civilizations to be constantly replaced, and many once prosperous empires have also been lost and annihilated.
Those ancient magic, martial arts, magic arts, and even science and technology are naturally buried in the long river of history.
Downton's gaze casually swept across the shelves, these items were indeed full of old vicissitudes.
"A while ago, Emperor Du had a drunkard, and he found a silver wine jug from the stall, and the inscription engraved on it was actually a magic spell of an ancient elf, and Zuihou was bought by a warlock at an auction for a sky-high price of two million gold coins. ”
What Grandet said was true, but most of his goods were fake, and he liked to collect antiques, but his eye was too poor.
"I'm not interested, seven folds, forget it if I don't agree. Downton had never expected to get rich overnight, and was about to turn away when he noticed a slight vibration from the tome in his hand.
"Don't worry, you can discuss slowly!" Grandet just didn't let go, picked up another snuffbox, and spat on the stars to sell it.
"There's a guest coming, why don't you entertain it?" Downton pointed to the door, and had to say that Grande was really stingy to the limit, and such a large grocery store was reluctant to hire even a clerk.
"You wait, don't go. Grandet chattered and ran to the guest.
"What's the matter?" Downton opened the tome and hurriedly asked.
"The idol at the bottom of the right side of the shelf, whatever the price, must be bought!" Homer had barely had time to show a single line before Grandet ran back out of breath
