Chapter 197 One gold coin and one pot
"Baron Gervais, I wonder how much a jug of this wine costs!"
Hearing that the note could be used to pay for money, several people were full of affection for Gervais. Although they did not care too much about such a small amount of money, Gervais's way of doing things was recognized by them.
The first person to speak was the one who had not tasted the wine at noon. The other people had already known about the existence of wine at noon. After an afternoon of waiting, they were no longer so anxious. Anyway, it was not short of a few minutes, but
The person who spoke had just tasted it, and was immediately shocked by the existence of the wine. He wanted to buy it back and drink it to his heart's content.
“The price of this wine!”
To be honest, after the increase from 10 silver coins to 1 gold coin, a tenfold increase, Gervais was still a little cautious, especially when Pat was still present, but he remembered Alice's conversation with him and knew that he had
The price set was indeed a bit low, so in the expectant eyes of the five people, Gervais said slowly: "1 gold coin per pot!"
"Cough! Cough!"
Pat didn't know that Gervais had temporarily increased the price. He almost choked when he heard the price Gervais said.
However, after coughing, Pat noticed that everyone was looking at him, so he immediately explained awkwardly: "Sorry! I just knew the price of this wine. I was a little surprised that it was so cheap at 1 gold coin. I thought it would cost at least four
Five gold coins for a pot!"
“After all, the taste is so good, even the best beer cannot compare with this wine!”
Fortunately, Pat thought quickly, otherwise he would have ruined Gervais's life today, and he would probably never want to taste wine again in the future.
"Baron Pat is right! One gold coin is indeed a great deal!"
"Um!"
After hearing what Pat said, the five people all nodded in agreement.
"Baron Gervais, I want to buy 10 pots, this is my note!"
After several people agreed with Pat's words, they didn't hesitate and immediately started buying wine with notes in hand!
"Baron Gervais, I also want 10 pots..."
After a while, while feeling the heavy money bag, Gervais asked his personal guards to help the five people deliver the wine out of Rose Castle. Their servants were waiting outside the castle, so the personal guards only had to help them deliver it to the door.
.
"Gervis, I also want to buy five pots!"
After a few people left, Pat carried the cup and Gervais poured him another cup. Pat took this opportunity to speak.
"Didn't I sell you two big cans last time? Do you still want to buy them?"
"I didn't bring any wine. Don't I have to stay in Winterfell for several days? So I bought it to satisfy my craving."
Pat was a little embarrassed. The price Gervais sold to others today was one gold coin per pot, but there were 10 pots in his two pots, and each pot only counted 10 silver coins. On the contrary, he took up most of Gervais's money.
Cheap.
"I thought you had finished those two cans. Are you worried about having no wine to drink while I'm here in Winterfell? You can bring two cans up later, and don't ask me for money!"
Gervais is quite satisfied with Pat's performance today and has regarded him as his first friend in the world, so of course Gervais will not ask him to collect money for these two bottles of wine. After all, at noon
In the end, Pat invited us for lunch, which cost a total of 7 gold coins, five kilograms of monster meat, 5 gold coins, three side dishes plus the private room usage fee, 2 gold coins.
…
…
The next day, Gervais got up early. Because it was getting late last night, he didn't go to check on the store he won from Kevin. Today he had to check it anyway, because Gervais
They were all a little impatient.
With a shop worth thousands of gold coins, Gervais tossed and turned all night without sleeping well. Before he set off to Winterfell this time, he never thought that he could own a shop in the East District.
Gervais only had 30 gold coins in his pocket when he came. This was all his belongings, so he originally planned to see if there were any more remote shops for sale in the South District. If there was a suitable one, he could consider buying it.
Not having enough money, Gervais planned to sell ice cubes or ice cream in the square again.
Even if it was not enough, he would shamelessly borrow some from Pat temporarily and return it to Pat when the wine was sold out.
But man's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. God sent him Kevin, a boy who made a lot of money. Not only did he win a shop, but he also earned more than ten gold coins.
"Anna!"
Gervais, who got up from the bed, was still a little confused at the moment, so he called out the name of his little maid without thinking.
"install……"
"It's really easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it's hard to go from luxury to frugality!"
After waiting for a while and not hearing Anna's response, Gervais finally remembered that his personal maid had been taken away by Alice. He could only slowly start dressing and washing himself, but he was complaining about himself in his heart.
I have become accustomed to the luxurious life of noble men.
"Pat, wake up!"
After getting enough food and clothing by himself, Gervais finished dressing and washing, then he came to the door of Pat's room with Terin's jade box in his arms and started to call the door.
"Gervis, it's quite early today!"
After a while, Pat walked out of the room, yawned and muttered to Gervais.
"Kevin's shop already belongs to me. I have to go and have a look early. This shop is worth thousands of gold coins. If rented out, it would be worth dozens of silver coins a day."
Gervais didn't care about Pat's complaints, and took him directly to the restaurant downstairs. After hastily finishing breakfast, Gervais ran to the place where the unicorns were stored, and used Trin to take out his unicorn.
beast.
…
"Gervis, why are you riding a unicorn? It's inconvenient for you to be a unicorn in the city. You might as well go there on a horse like yesterday."
Pat asked curiously when he saw that Gervais was planning to ride a unicorn to Winterfell today.
"You don't understand this. We are going to collect the store today. If Kevin Garbage refuses to stop me, I am at a lower level than them. Although I am not afraid of them, I can't do anything to them. But I
Bring the unicorn, and whoever dares to say no will let him enjoy the taste of the unicorn's horn."
Riding on the unicorn, Gervais did not hide the reason and directly explained it to Pat.
Although the Warcraft mount is majestic, it is very inconvenient for Gervais not to have his own brown elf bug. Even if he leaves the unicorn for a short while, he does not feel at ease. After all, Warcraft is not a joke. Ordinary people face it.
A gold-medal thug like the Unicorn may have a few holes in his body if he is rubbed against it.
But today we are going to close the store. If Kevin dares to play tricks, Gervais is not prepared to be polite to him.
Soon Gervais and Pat came to the East District. Standing in the square of the East District, Gervais opened the house deed.
“No. 6 Rose Place, Champagne Avenue, East District!”
"This is No. 12, Gervais, and the store over there should be No. 6."
The two stood in the square, looking at the house numbers of the surrounding shops. This square was where Thomas and others originally set up a stall to sell ice cream. The environment was beautiful and quiet. Although it was early morning, there were many pedestrians coming and going.
, but compared to this square covering an area of about two acres, it seems a bit sparse.
After Pat heard the address of the store mentioned by Gervais, his sharp eyes immediately discovered where store No. 6 was.
