"Is this the capital of the Slan Empire?" I looked at the city in front of me and shook my head. "Forget it, with the productivity of this world, it's already good to be able to do this. I'm asking too much."
After paying a few silver coins for the city entrance fee, I looked around at the streets and buildings while looking for a place to stay temporarily.
Two days have passed since I found out about the space magic core auction at the Royal Auction of the Slan Empire in the bar.
I followed the river all the way to the southeast, and after two days of non-stop flying, I arrived at Tumaco, the capital city built on the river.
But if the capital of the country is built by the river, aren't we afraid that the enemy country will send a fleet directly to the doorstep?
So confident!
But speaking of it, I haven’t seen any fleets in this world. Doesn’t this world even have a navy?
After finding a hotel at random and booking my room, I walked around the streets to see if there was any way to get a lot of gold coins in a short period of time.
It's really a scam. It seems that because of the auction, the hotel accommodation fee in Tumaka City has increased several times compared to usual.
If I hadn't wanted to build floors outside the city, I would have demolished the hotel where you guys are destroying merchants.
However, due to the auction, the crowd density in Tumac City is much higher than that of ordinary cities. As long as you want to make money, it is still very easy. The key is how to get a large number of gold coins in a short period of time, which is more troublesome.
Speaking of which, I've only been gone for a long time, and this is already the sixth recruitment notice.
Looking at the crowd of people watching in front of me and the notice hanging on the wooden pole in the middle of the crowd, I thought speechlessly.
"It's strange. Forget about the regular army recruitment, why is the Royal Cavalry also recruiting?"
Household Cavalry? What is that?
Although I was a little curious, I continued walking forward without stopping.
"So what if the Royal Cavalry is drafted? With your level, do you think anyone will want you?"
"That's right, the Royal Cavalry Regiment was built by the royal family of the Silan Empire with huge investment. Compared with the Holy See Cavalry of the Holy Empire's Temple of Light, it is not inferior at all."
The Holy See Cavalry? The kind of cavalry that picks up Alice after crossing the mountains north of Crow City?
Those are humanoid mobile gold coins. Does the Slan Empire have similar cavalry?
Should I steal a few sets of armor and sell them?
Forget it, even if you can steal it, you can't do it within the Slan Empire. Traveling back and forth to other countries is a waste of time and very uneconomical.
"Even if the Royal Cavalry Regiment recruits troops, without sufficient weapons and equipment, will they be able to arm enough cavalry?"
"You don't have to worry about this. The military department placed an order as early as a month ago. Now a large number of blacksmiths have gathered in the capital to build equipment. And as long as the equipment built meets the requirements, the military will use the equipment shipped from other places.
The department also acquired it.”
Oh, there seems to be a way to make money by purchasing equipment, so you can check it out.
The profits from the arms business are extremely exaggerated.
I took out the city map I purchased from the mercenary union, looked at it, and walked towards the military headquarters of the Slan Empire.
"Miss Magician, please stay." When I arrived at the Silandi [***] headquarters and was about to go in, a guard stopped me.
"You can't enter here without a reservation, Mr. Magician." After seeing clearly the magician badge hanging on my shoulder buckle, the guard said to me respectfully.
"I heard that you are collecting equipment here. What's going on?" I flicked a gold coin out with my finger and landed in the guard's hand.
After thinking about it, I decided to find out the truth from this guard first. Since I can guard the door here, I must be very well-informed.
"Mr. Magician, the military department is indeed purchasing equipment, but it must be made according to uniform specifications and styles. Only qualified equipment will be purchased." The guard clenched his hands and said.
"Well, who in the military department is responsible for purchasing equipment? Can I talk to him?" After thinking about it, I said.
"Mr. Magician, your identity does not require an appointment. You can directly see the Chief Quartermaster. I will ask someone to lead you to the front." The guard bent down and said.
"Find someone to lead the way."
Seeing his subordinates leading the magician to the logistics department of the military headquarters, the guard's respectful expression disappeared immediately, and he said to the subordinates with a cold face: "I'm reporting, a very young seventh-level wind magician. Let's go get some information first.
, win over as much as possible if possible.”
"Dear Miss Magician, I don't know what you want to see me for." After passing through the layers of guards to lead the logistics department of the military headquarters, the chief quartermaster of the Slan Empire said to me with narrowed eyes.
"I won't go into too much nonsense. I heard that you are collecting equipment here. Just tell me the style and specification requirements and the purchase price." I looked around and then said. "If it's suitable, I have equipment to sell."
"Unexpectedly, Miss Magician came to sell equipment to me. I always thought that only blacksmiths can make equipment." The chubby chief quartermaster smiled and shook his head, and then took out a stack of information from the shelf behind him.
Put it in front of my desk: "This is the equipment requirement we need to acquire, you can take a look."
Well, in addition to a complete set of heavy cavalry armor wrapped from head to toe, the entire set of equipment also includes a spear, a two-handed sword, and a cavalry buckler. The total purchase price is 3950 gold coins.
If it is not sold individually but as a complete set, the price can be increased a little, 4000 gold coins in total.
"Will you provide the materials?" After reading this set of design drawings, I almost had an idea.
"If we need to provide materials, then the purchase price of a complete set will become 1,000 gold coins." Probably because he often came into contact with these data, the chief quartermaster said without thinking.
"Oh, but the market price of the raw materials for this set of equipment is only 1,500 gold coins at most." I said after taking a sip of the tea poured by the guard.
"Because our raw materials are extracted directly from the military's combat readiness material warehouse," the Chief Quartermaster said with some embarrassment.
Oh, that means if you want to take it out, does it go through layers of buckles?
What a cheat!
When I came here, I deliberately went to the metal market in Tumark. Because the military department called in blacksmiths to build equipment, although the price of metal raw materials did not fluctuate much, there was often a shortage of raw materials. It is said that sometimes even if there is
Money may not buy metal raw materials.
If I really need to go to the market to purchase raw materials, what should I do if the raw materials are suddenly out of stock?
Do you want me to go directly to the dwarves to order raw materials?
The auction will be over by the time the metal materials there are shipped over, so I'm still going to make a fool of myself!
Forget it, I'd better let them pay for the raw materials and charge processing fees. Although the profit is small, it is safe.
As long as you can process a large amount of it in a short period of time, you can still earn enough gold coins!
"What should you do if I have equipment here that can surpass the equipment on your design?" I raised my head and looked at the Chief Quartermaster. "Are you going to increase the price?"
"If the equipment of the same style exceeds our standards, we will increase the price as appropriate." The Chief Quartermaster narrowed his eyes and said to me.
"I hate not knowing my last name, so just tell me how many gold coins the last name can exceed." I took a picture of the finished design drawing on the table.
"I'm sorry, I'm just a poor logistics person. I can't make the decision. How about you bring out a set of equipment and I'll give it to the army to appraise and try it out, and then give you a suitable price?" said the pitiful Chief Quartermaster.
Looked at me mischievously.
You're already in charge of general logistics, but you're still pitiful?
If you have the ability, step aside and make way for someone better. I'm sure there will be many people competing for the position.
I don't believe that you, the chief quartermaster, can't make any money!
"Okay, let me come again in three days." After thinking for a while, and leaving enough time for any accidents, I said. "Do you have unlimited equipment purchases here?"
"You have to know that equipment is consumed very quickly. As long as you have it, I will take it." The chief quartermaster's narrowed eyes flashed.
"Be prepared with enough gold coins." After saying that, I turned around and left the military headquarters.
I hope you won’t cry when the time comes! (To be continued.)
