I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 18 18. I release the elven magic weapon!

Butler Robert stood at the gate of the castle with a calm expression, exactly the same as Cloya's, even though the carriage in front of him was for the guests he had invited.

The carriage slowly stopped at the castle gate.

A very plump man who looked similar to Bartos walked out.

He was wearing a silk dress woven by elves, with the magical aura of nature lingering around it, and clouds and vines of grass and trees moving with his movements.

Lifelike, as if it had life.

It is obviously very expensive at first glance, but it is more likely to be for show. After all, businessmen have to dress gorgeously.

His expression was completely different from his gorgeous clothes.

He had a very pleasing round face with a simple smile on his face. He rubbed his hands and spoke politely, "It's a rare opportunity to come to the castle of a wizard lord. It makes me happy!

If I have the honor to meet you, it will be even more joyful! "

Well, that's not false.

There is no other wizard around Hanjiao Island to be the lord. After all, the location is remote and there are no special products. Everything in the sea is controlled by the sea people...

Otherwise, Croa would not have been exiled here.

"Haha, my master wizard is conducting research... Please come in, Mr. Seriou, I have prepared the white iron ore."

Robert ignored his hint that he wanted to see Cloya and just stretched out his hand in a vague gesture.

A businessman from the Chamber of Commerce wants to meet the Master Mage?

It’s better to go to bed early and dream.

The merchant named Serius was not discouraged. He followed him into the castle, walked through a passage, and came into a room.

There were some strange iron blocks in the room that were as shiny as silver, and each block weighed exactly one kilogram.

It was the white iron ore ingot that Robert had sent someone to move early in the morning.

The reason why they didn't store it in the castle's warehouse, but chose to transport it here with great effort, was mainly because they didn't want a businessman to see the real situation in the castle.

He felt that Cloya would not want outsiders to enter the castle for a visit.

"Huh." Sai Liu's attention was immediately attracted by them.

I walked forward to rub and examine them carefully, and concluded from their smooth appearance and the faint magical aura that emanated from them: These must have been forged by a wizard himself!

Look how well-proportioned they are, without a speck of impurity in them, beautiful as silver, and the magic within them is still gentle.

The quality is excellent, belonging to the best category.

As a qualified businessman, even if he is very excited inside, his emotions on the surface are very stable.

His fingers gently stroked the iron ingot: "The quality is good, then according to the market price, I will give you six silver coins."

Robert just laughed at this and said simply: "Then please leave now, Mr. Serio, I will go to the Gray Sea Chamber of Commerce right away.

I think they will be able to give me a suitable price.”

When Robert mentioned the word "suitable", he deliberately emphasized his voice - just kidding, it's not like he has never seen the world. These top-quality tin ingots can definitely be sold for more than eight silver coins.

Indeed, if it were in a place like the royal capital, this would only be around six silver coins.

But the more remote the area, the fewer top-quality items there are, the more precious they are, and the higher their value.

Not to mention that this is the main material for common armor and weapons, and it is filled with magic power. If you can find an alchemist, you can even create weapons that are close to magic.

You do not want?
If you don’t want me to keep looking for someone else!
If he hadn't been a noble and knew these tricks, he would have given it to someone who had just come from the royal capital and hadn't investigated the market.

But to be honest, this is also human nature. The existence of businessmen...

Sai Liu couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This butler is obviously an expert. Isn't it said that magicians always look for butlers who know nothing?
How come even the price is so fixed?
He rubbed his hands together and a smile appeared on his face.

"Oh, what you said is wrong. We are talking about business, it's a give and take, you have to at least give me a price!"

"Seven silver coins!"

Robert's expression was resolute, but it also left him enough profit - he could earn an extra silver coin with every resale.

Don't squeeze too hard, there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future. This person is backed by the Hanhai Chamber of Commerce, which has more advantages than the Huihai Chamber of Commerce, which is farther away, and is said to be related to the local nobles.

It will be helpful for Croa to expand his influence locally.

"Okay then." Selius did not bargain. After checking all the tin ingots one by one, he said, "There are 1617 in total, so it's silver coins."

It sounds like a lot, but according to the currency exchange rate, it can only be exchanged for sixteen gold coins - of course, gold coins are already magical materials and are generally not easily exchanged.

Most common items can be purchased with silver coins.

"Do you need to exchange it for gold coins?"

Seriou offered: "If Master Mage needs it, I can exchange it for sixteen gold coins, and the remaining ones will be considered as the cost of the exchange."

This is actually a good deal, because almost no one will exchange silver coins for gold coins.

Robert was a little hesitant. He didn't know whether Croa needed gold coins, so he thought of sending someone to ask.

But before he could ask for instructions, Knight Art came in and conveyed Kloya's intention: "It's all up to the butler!"

Then he took out a handful of crystal clear sunflower seeds.

There are only twelve.

"This was cultivated by the Lord, and he wants to sell it."

Sai Liu was immediately surprised and asked, "Brought by the Master Mage?"

This time he really didn't hide his true colors. He hurried over and looked at the sunflower seeds carefully.

It's like looking at some priceless treasure.

Many people don’t know that Seriou actually dreamed of becoming a wizard a long time ago, but due to his talent and the conditions at the time, he had no chance to learn.

But this regret has even become his obsession.

He was very interested in any item produced by a mage, which was why he rushed here immediately after receiving the invitation.

As a qualified Chamber of Commerce deacon, he could certainly discern the power of these tiny sunflower seeds—a power full of vitality.

Gentler and warmer than the sun.

Seems to be good for the body.

'I want to try one myself!'

He made this decision immediately, and then hesitantly estimated the price: "One hundred silver coins per coin, this is the highest price I can offer."

When he said this, his expression was obviously a little nervous - this unprecedented sunflower seed was unique here and was different from tin ingots.

If you miss it, it may really be gone.

"..."

Robert showed no emotion on his face, but he felt complicated in his heart - that huge pile of ore, which had been accumulated for who knows how long, only cost more than 1,600 silver coins.

But what about this?

Twelve of them can be exchanged for 1,200 silver coins.

Is this a magician? He can easily earn wealth that ordinary people can hardly imagine, and even asks them to pay him, fearing that he will not sell.

Robert's hesitation was mistaken by Selius as the lack of money. The latter gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and took out an exquisite necklace.

Put it on the table.

He said reluctantly: "This is an elven magic weapon I once got. As long as the master wizard is willing to sell it to me and continue to supply it in the future...

Consider this magic weapon as my gift to the Master Mage, and I will still pay you with silver coins!"

He said this in a sensible way, and it also meant to apologize for the temptation just now.

At this, Cloya, who was eavesdropping, suddenly felt his heart beat fast.
