Claude turned around and found that there was also a black counter next to the small door he came in. Julian, a fat old man, was already standing behind the counter. He took out a bottle of blueberry fruit wine and two silver cups from under the counter: "Here.
One cup?”
Claude shook his head. It was the first time he came to this underground purchasing point. He didn't let down his guard. He drank. Who knows what was added to the fruit wine. Madam Maria had warned him that there was no difference between magicians and magicians.
There is such harmony and friendliness, especially among wild mages. It is not surprising to be plotted and attacked by other mages, but it is a normal phenomenon...
"My teacher told me." Claude replied.
"Your teacher? Who is your teacher?" Julian frowned.
Claude did not answer. Madam Maria said that as long as you prove your identity as a mage, you can enter the underground acquisition point for transactions. There is no need to reveal your identity. You can ignore any questions about your identity. This is originally underground.
The rules set by the magic market are also designed to allow all mages to trade in the market with confidence.
The fat old man may have realized this, and he drank all the fruit wine in the silver cup: "Sorry, I'm just curious, you have never been here before, and we don't know each other. You said your teacher told you, so I
I just wanted to ask if your teacher knows me..."
Claude let out a hoarse laugh: "My teacher went to Dodessa County to do some errands and won't come back in a few days. I messed up what he told me to do, so I can only come to your place to have a look.
Can you buy some special materials to please my teacher so that I won't be punished by him? Here are some of our senior brothers who heard about it from our teacher. He only found out about this after receiving a letter from the royal capital.
An underground purchasing point has also been opened in the town."
Claude shrugged: "We have never been here before, but this time I have no choice but to come here to try my luck..."
Claude said a lot of things, but the message to Julian was that this masked guy seemed to have a good background. He had a teacher, he had brothers, and his teacher was still in contact with the capital, and he could get information about underground magic.
Market information. Currently, his teacher is not in White Deer Town and is on business in Dodessa County. The masked guy in front of him has caused some trouble to his teacher. He hopes to buy some magic materials here to make up for it...
"Okay," Julian no longer intends to find out the origin of the hidden guy in front of him. He is obviously dressed like this to hide his true face and doesn't want anyone to find out who he is. In this case, it doesn't matter.
Sharpen the knife, this deal involves cutting more flesh from the masked guy: "What special materials do you want to buy?"
"Is there a magic crystal?" This is the second time Claude asked this question.
However, the fat old man Julian's answer was completely different from the one in the room outside just now: "Yes. What attributes do you need?"
"With the fire attribute, do you have fire crystals?" The most important thing about the alchemical magic talisman is the fire crystal. Without the fire crystal, this alchemical magic talisman cannot operate.
In a sense, Claude believes that this fire crystal is the power fuel of the alchemical magic talisman array, and the alchemical magic talisman array consumes fire crystals and magic stones.
"There are fire crystals, but they are very expensive. By the way, are you going to pay with gold coins or exchange them with other magic materials or magic items?"
Claude thought for a while, and he could only use the thirty Sullivan gold coins in exchange: "I'll pay with Sullivan gold coins."
"Sullivan gold coins?" The fat old man's eyes lit up: "Okay, one fire crystal and three Sullivan gold coins, how many do you want?"
Claude heard Madam Maria talk about the quantity of square magic crystals. The size of a square magic crystal is about the same as the mahjong tiles in the previous life, but the thickness is thinner. Madam Maria carries a square crystal with her. It is said that
Wearing water-based magic crystals can moisturize the skin, whiten and nourish the skin. It has always been the favorite of ladies.
Claude has seen the crystal and played with it. He thinks that the magic crystal is more appropriate to use the word "piece" instead of "square".
"There's something wrong with the price..." Claude looked at the fat old man suspiciously: "The price of fire crystals sold in the underground magic market in the royal capital is only two Sullivan gold coins plus five gold crowns. Why are you asking for three sand crystals here?"
Leven gold coins?”
Mrs. Maria said that in the underground magic market of the royal capital, one Sullivan gold coin can be exchanged for twenty gold crowns, and a fire crystal is sold for forty-five gold crowns. If it were not for the fact that Bailu Town is too far away from the royal capital,
Far away. In addition, he didn’t want to cause trouble to Madam Maria. At the same time, in order to hide his secret, Claude really wanted to entrust his thirty Sullivan gold coins to Madam Maria and ask her to use her underground magic there.
The market gives itself the magic materials it needs to acquire...
This fat old man offered three Sullivans for one Fire Crystal. The price was already so high. If the deal was made at this price, it would be equivalent to one magic crystal. He could earn an additional fifteen gold crowns from Claude.
That's seventy-five silver thalers.
Claude is now the supervisor of the Norman Forestry Farm. Madam Maria gives him a monthly salary of three silver thalers, which is thirty-six thalers a year. This fat old man can get a piece of magic crystal from Claude.
The total salary earned in two years is three more silver thalers.
Claude needs at least hexagonal fire crystals, because the alchemy magic talisman is also a hexagram structure, and the fire crystals are arranged at the six corners of the talisman...
"The capital is too far away..." Julian, a fat old man, didn't panic at all. He slowly started pouring fruit wine into his silver cup again: "What you know is only the prices in the underground magic market in the capital, not here.
Over there, one Sullivan gold coin can indeed be exchanged for twenty gold crowns, but here, we can only exchange for eighteen. Therefore, the price I offered is actually only fifty-four gold crowns per fire crystal.
The most important point is that magic materials like fire crystals are generally not allowed to be sold at purchase points such as ours. As long as they are received, they must be sent to the royal capital. Because fire crystals are a scarce commodity in the market, demand has always been in short supply.
status.
The few squares of fire crystals I have now were not purchased, but were given to me by friends for sale, so I can sell them. And the quantity is not large, only eight directions. Nowadays, the production of magic crystals is no longer what it used to be.
, the cost of mining and the danger of excavation are getting higher and higher, and the output of fire crystals is becoming increasingly scarce.
The price is indeed a bit more expensive than the one in Wangdu, but I can't help it. My friend bid at this price. This is why I can't buy it from him. In fact, I don't want to get anything out of this transaction.
No matter how much money I make, I just want to help my friends.
So, I don’t care whether you are willing to make a deal at this price or not. At worst, if you keep it in the store, it’s not like you can’t sell it. In addition, I got news that the Royal Capital is also planning to increase the sales of some magic crystals after the Chinese New Year.
Price, Huo Jing is among them..."
Claude was speechless. Although he didn't believe what this fat old man said, he couldn't raise any doubts. Julian's attitude was obviously that you can buy what you want, and it doesn't matter if you don't. Under such circumstances, Claude
De can only suffer this loss. He wants to get an alchemy magic talisman array but doesn't know how long he can wait if he misses this store.
"Okay, I want the six-sided fire crystal." Claude said helplessly, and the eighteen Sullivan gold coins were just gone.
Julian suddenly smiled brightly and spoke more enthusiastically: "Besides the fire crystal, what else do you need?"
"Do you have Tianxing Sand, White Root Powder and Red Blood Dew?" Claude asked.
Tianxing sand is actually meteorites crushed into gravel, white root powder is a powder ground from plant fossils, and red blood dew is not blood, but a mineral similar to mercury. These three are auxiliary to setting up an alchemical magic array.
Magic materials.
Julian frowned and looked at Claude again, but Claude was covering his face and wearing a black robe, so he couldn't see Claude's expression.
"Are you going to set up an alchemical magic talisman array?" As the person in charge of a regional acquisition point in the underground magic market, Julian obviously knows the use of these magic materials.
Claude shrugged again: "This time I played too big and broke the teacher's alchemy magic talisman. In order to make the teacher forgive me for my mistake, I must give the alchemy magic talisman to the teacher before he comes back.
Return to the original state..."
Julian laughed: "It is inevitable for young people to make mistakes, especially on the road to learning magic. The important thing is to correct mistakes when they are known, and remember the lessons so that you can avoid making the same mistakes again in the future. You can recognize this and
If you can make up for the mistakes you made, I believe your teacher will forgive you."
"A pound of Tianxing sand costs sixteen gold crowns, a box of white root powder costs seven gold crowns, and a bottle of red blood dew costs twelve gold crowns. If you pay with Sullivan gold coins, there are two Sullivan gold coins in total. I need
I’ll give you a gold crown.”
Although Julian, the fat old man, said he was very kind and considerate just now, he was not polite when he quoted the price. Claude was speechless. The price offered by this fat old man was at least half as expensive as the one in the capital.
Mrs. Maria mentioned that she needed to buy white root powder for her pharmaceutical experiments. A box cost four gold crowns. She also complained that it was too useless and she had to buy it when it ran out after just a few experiments. Especially for her family.
It's a great cause, but the magic materials are too expensive, and she can't afford them with her income.
So as soon as she heard that someone in Bailu Town had hunted a four-meter-long Niros crocodile, she rushed over with the idea of making magic books and magic scrolls so that she could make a lot of money to support herself when she returned to the capital.
The expenditure on magic materials purchased for potion experiments.
"Okay, I want one." Claude said.
The magic materials needed for the alchemy magic talisman have been basically prepared. Although the price is a bit high, it is an unexpected surprise for Claude. He did not expect that all the magic materials can be obtained at Julian, an underground purchasing point.
, I thought it was good luck to find one or two of them.
"By the way, I have a magic stone slab here, do you need it? If you use a magic stone slab at the bottom of the alchemy magic talisman array, the success rate of the experiment can be improved." Julian said enthusiastically.
The setting up of the alchemy magic talisman array can be said to be complicated or simple. The simple thing is that you only need to find a flat and solid place with the magic materials. The complicated thing is that the drawing and carving of the runes in the talisman array require carefulness and meticulousness.
, generally speaking, runes are outlined on stone slabs or special wooden boards, so that the depth of the lines and the thickness of the strokes can be controlled, which is conducive to the smooth operation of magic.
Magic stone board is the most commonly used base board for setting up alchemical magic talisman arrays. The source is earth attribute magic crystal. Earth crystal is different from other attribute magic crystals. It is wrapped in a thick stone shell, and the outer stone shell needs to be peeled off.
Only in this way can the middlemost soil crystal be obtained. The stone shell is used to grind it into a magic stone slab, which can also be regarded as a stone rune paper.
Claude was moved and asked: "How big is it and the price?"
"Six dollars, one square meter, if you want, a Sullivan gold coin will do."
Julian means six magic stone slabs, spliced into a hexagram structure with a diameter of about one meter and an area of one square. This is enough for Claude to use. That's the price. This fat old man killed Claude again.
.
Claude no longer wanted to argue with him, so he nodded and said yes, and then walked towards the wooden lattice placed on the wall. He wanted to see what kind of magic items Julian had here.
