Marvel's Magic Master

Hearing George's words, the crowd of onlookers, who were attracted by George's bag of treasures and crowded outside the trading company, exclaimed in unison.

Some of the brave and clever ones have already turned around and left, preparing to pack up and go up the mountain to explore.

This wasn't the first time this had happened. The last time Whiterun sent a small team of soldiers to clear out the bandit den in the sentry tower, they couldn't take so much away, so some valuable things were left behind.

The clever townspeople immediately went up the mountain and pulled down the remaining items.

Although not much was sold, it was equivalent to the income from farming for nearly half a month.

This time, in addition to the bandits, even the zombies in the ancient tomb of Huangpu were cleared out. There must be more things left.

If you run fast, you might even get a little rich.

Everyone was smart. When they found out someone had left, they immediately realized the opportunity to make a fortune and called their friends to go up the mountain together.

"A total of one hundred thousand Septim!"

Lu Kan appraised the prices one by one, and finally announced the total value of the sack of treasures with a smack of surprise.

"Counting the three thousand Septim as the reward for the Golden Dragon Claw, that's one hundred and three thousand Septim, which should be enough for the short term."

George calculated in his mind, then nodded, approving Lu Kan's offer.

He knew that there was actually some room for negotiation on the price. If he took them to Whiterun and sorted them out and sold them one by one, he might be able to sell them for two or three hundred thousand.

If you meet some nobles who are interested in and study the culture of the ancient Nordic period, the price will be even higher.

But for him, it was totally unnecessary.

With his strength, it is too easy for him to make money.

Whether it's finding an ancient Nord tomb to raid, or looking for a well-known bandit group, a Forsworn camp, or a vampire castle, it's all very simple.

You can earn tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars in just a few hours.

Besides, isn't this the money that people make when they do business?

When you are a hard-working worker, you will bargain with the boss for dozens of minutes to buy a pair of shoes worth two hundred yuan, and finally get it for fifteen hundred yuan.

But when you are the richest man in the world, would you still bargain with your boss when buying a pair of shoes for two hundred dollars?

If the boss has a good attitude and makes you feel well served, it is normal to spend two hundred to buy a pair of shoes and then give him another two hundred as a tip.

Compared to Lukan, the boss of Riverwood Town, George is about the same as the richest man in the world.

Lu Kan, who was originally waiting for George to bargain, was stunned when he heard that George agreed to his offer without even thinking about it.

Then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Okay, but I don't have that much money right now. I need two hours to raise the money."

One hundred and three thousand Septim, this is not a small amount.

As the owner of a trading company, most of his money went into the goods in the store, and he did not have much liquid capital on hand.

But that's not a problem, he can borrow it from the blacksmith Alvo, the sawmill owner Goldo, and Delphine at the Sleeping Giant Inn.

The assets of these three people are no less than his own, so it would be easy to borrow the money as long as he added a little interest.

It would not be a problem for him to sell this ancient Nord treasure worth one hundred thousand for two hundred thousand in a few months. If he was willing to wait patiently for a buyer, he could sell it for even more.

"I just happen to want to take a look at the things in your store, maybe there is something I need."

George nodded again. He was not in a hurry for the next two hours.

"Mr. George, take your time to look around. I'll give you a 30% discount on anything you like."

Lu Kan quickly waved to his sister who was still in a daze:

"Camilla, introduce the things in the store to Mr. George. I'm going to raise money!" After Camilla reacted, she immediately put down the broom, came over with shining eyes to replace her brother, and looked at George.

"I didn't expect you to be so amazing!"

It’s not just amazing, it’s super amazing.

She had heard passing adventurers in the tavern bragging about their experiences, saying that some had killed three or five zombies by themselves, which was considered quite impressive.

But the Mr. George in front of him not only destroyed the bandit den, but also eliminated all the zombies in the ancient tomb of Huangpu Falls.

She felt that George was probably as powerful as those in the Comrades Group.

If George could use his psychic powers to read Camilla's thoughts at this moment, he would say in his heart:

"Now that you are not an adventurer, you will see me as a frog in a well looking up at the moon. If you are lucky enough to become an adventurer, you will see me as a mayfly seeing the sky."

Comrades? Even the comrades combined were not enough for him to hit with one finger.

"I told you that I still have a little confidence in my own abilities."

George smiled and winked, then took the entire list of items sold in the grocery store from Camilla.

He wanted to see if the business had any magic books that he could buy and study on his own.

As a magician, it's really not elegant to always fight with your physical body.

And if you want to join the College of Winterhold, it seems that you must have a certain foundation in magic, otherwise they will not accept you.

By the way, buy two decent clothes. The clothes of this clone are too cheap and not suitable for his status.

Finally, he bought a copy of all the ordinary books in the store. Through these books, he could understand the world in more detail.

With the help of Camilla, George quickly found what he needed. After packing, he sat down and chatted while drinking tea.

It was mainly Kemila who asked and George answered casually.

In less than two hours, Lu Kan returned to the trading house with ten large silver bills.

What George didn't expect was that in the world of The Elder Scrolls, there actually existed something like a bank.

Because there is no bank in the game world, all items must be carried by yourself, or given to followers or placed on horses.

The bank here was established by the merchants of the Empire, and the ten large silver notes exchanged by Lukan, each worth 10,000 Septim, could be exchanged in banks in various cities in all provinces of the Empire.

Even the Stormcloak sphere of influence, which is currently at war with the Empire, can be exchanged normally.

"Two thousand five hundred Septim."

He took ten large silver bills, and then settled the bill for the books and clothes he bought after a 30% discount.

Finally, Lukan took out another five hundred Septim and handed them to George.

After bidding farewell to Camilla who was reluctant to leave, George carried his things and came to the carriage shop in Hemu Town.

Yes, it’s not just big cities like Whiterun, Solitude, and Windhelm that have carriage companies.

In this world, all cities and towns have carriage companies, where you can rent a carriage and it is relatively safe.

Because the carriage and horse company itself also has guards accompanying it.

Instead of sharing a carriage with others, George spent two hundred Septim to hire a carriage by himself, which took him and the books he bought and headed north to the city of Whiterun.

When crossing the bridge and reaching the fork in the road, I took Avel who was waiting there with me.

It takes five days to get to Whiterun by carriage, so he can enjoy the scenery and read all the books he bought in the carriage.
