Chapter 142: Illusions in general are another form of intuition
After leaving Xiskama, Mann walked all the way south. On the way, Mann found a city to join the mainland merchant union. The way to join the membership is very simple, just pay a gold coin for membership fee.
In addition to getting unique epaulettes and clothing, joining a Merchant Union can also share news from the Merchant Union. Obviously, a long-term reliable source of information is definitely worth a gold coin for any businessman. Therefore, most businessmen on the mainland are willing to join the Merchant Union, and gradually the epaulettes of the Merchant Union have become a symbol of the identity of the merchant.
Mann had long wanted this epaulette that symbolized his identity. When he first got it, he was reluctant to take it. He held it in his hand every day and wiped it on his shoulders until recently.
He also bought two space props for himself and Chu. Well, this is also the standard configuration for walking on the mainland. I didn’t buy it before because I didn’t have much money. Now I have a little bit more money, and Mann is not stingy anymore. He bought two space bags, which can be stored in a small capacity and cannot hold goods and goods, but it is far enough to just load coins.
In short, when they were ready for all this, they had already walked a lot of roads before they knew it and arrived at a surrounding city in the south of the kingdom, Loftrov.
As soon as he arrived in the city, Mann went to the city's Merchant Union branch to learn about the recent business information.
In fact, this union has a great effect, and Mann did get the news he wanted. A man named Marchel is buying magic crystals in an unlimited amount, twenty silver coins per, with the address in Jeffries City in the southeast of the kingdom.
The distance between Jeffries and Loftrov is not very close, but if it is an unlimited acquisition, there should be no need to worry about the distance and time.
The most important thing is that the average market price of a magic crystal is only about fifteen silver coins, which means that you can earn five small silver coins by walking on a magic crystal like this. This is not a small amount, and it is completely worth the journey.
As for what Marchel wants so many magic crystals to do, this is not something Mann needs to consider. He is a businessman, and he only needs to know that the magic crystal will not increase in the price in a short period of time, and the price is stable and profitable.
Mann quickly made up his plan. Taking into account all the money he and Chushou had, he bought a total of 120 magic crystals. For this reason, he bought two more carriages to pack these magic crystals.
Considering that someone had to drive these two extra carriages, Mann then arrived at the Adventurers Guild to release a mission. His requirements were not high, as long as the person who came could drive the workshop.
But what he didn't expect was that he had not sent out the task or even had time to make a request.
Are adventurers so difficult nowadays? Do you have to rush to take any task?
Looking at the woman who solemnly wanted to take on her task, Mann couldn't help but think of this.
"Then." Mann spread his hands and said hesitantly to the blonde woman in front of him: "Do you need me to explain the task requirements?"
"Of course." Lorna nodded heroically, looking capable and reliable.
Considering his captain's problem, the Silver Sword Team originally wanted to propose a rejection mission.
But after they listened to Mann's account of the mission, they took it down.
There is no way, this task is really tempting.
You just need to go with Jeffries and you can get four large silver coins, or eighty small silver coins. There will be no danger on the road and the distance is not long. You can reach it at most one or two months based on the speed of the three carriages.
Such an easy and profitable task cannot be encountered once every few months, and it is an opportunity that must be seized for such a down-and-out adventurer team.
After a simple self-introduction, the Silver Sword Team took over Mann's mission.
Mann and Chu also got to know their members roughly.
Swordsman Lorna, a very capable and cheerful female swordsman (at least it seems), seems to have reliable abilities, and her slightly rough palms show that she has used the sword for the years.
The mage Lily, there are some shy little girls, who are only seventeen years old, and are just graduated from the mage academy. Although they are not very practical, they are still proficient in basic magic.
The Dwarf John, like all Dwarfs, was a rusher who loved drinking, and the huge warhammer was his weapon, enough to break ordinary rocks and high walls.
Lizardman Jill, as a usually taciturn lizardman thief, has already said a lot, at least he can clearly explain his meaning.
"So, Lorna!"
On the way to the carriage, the dwarf John glanced at Chu and Mann who were walking in front, hammered the armor on Lorna's waist, and said in a voice.
"This time you have to restrain yourself no matter what. My drinking money for the second half of the year depends on this task!"
"Gudu." Lorna looked at Chu's back and swallowed, as if she was enduring something, she looked away in pain and said with her eyes closed.
"I see."
"Hmph." The lizard man walking beside him snorted: "The desires of flesh and blood are all false."
Originally, Lorna couldn't help but argue in a low voice.
"What do you know? This is called the pursuit of beauty."
"Okay, Sister Lorna, it's bad to be heard." Lily carefully grabbed Lorna's hand and reminded.
"Ahh, I get it." Lorna sighed as if surrendered.
The Silver Sword Team whispered behind, but what they didn't know was that Chu heard what they said clearly. After all, Chu's hearing was several times that of ordinary people, but Chu didn't understand what these people were saying.
She didn't understand anything restrained, fleshly desires, and pursuit of beauty. But she knew one thing: if these people had any bad plans, she would give each of them a sword without hesitation.
"Okay." Mann jumped into the first carriage. He was still used to the initial carriage. After Chu Ye got on the carriage, he turned around and looked at the Silver Sword and said.
"As we agreed, you can drive a carriage, right?"
"You can rest assured about the driving skills of the dwarf." The dwarf John turned over a carriage on the left and held the reins.
"Ah, well, I have no problem." Lorna was still in a daze, but was woken up by Mann's words and got on the last carriage with Lily.
The convoy began to move, and Chu sat in the carriage and moved his body uncomfortably.
She still felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange, especially the female swordsman named Lorna. For some reason, the other party's eyes seemed to be focused on her body, especially on her lower body, as if she was always wandering on her legs.
This made her feel cold in her heart, as if she was being targeted by something bad.
Probably, it's an illusion.
