Rom was about to cry and faint in the arms of Wizard Jason. But when he heard the request of 'buying goods', he regained his strength and stood up in a hurry, looking straight at the other person.
Wizard Jason is usually wild and unruly, but at this moment he has a loyal face and smiles like an old farmer. He patted Rom on the shoulder and said, "This time the matter is too big, you must support it. Otherwise, if it explodes, you will definitely have to
It’s finished.”
But Rom took a breath, regained his senses, straightened out the messy robe, and wiped away the tears that almost flew from the corners of his eyes. He deeply hated how his legs had been weak just now, so he called the servant to bring two cups of black tea, and said slowly
sit down.
Wizard Jason took the black tea from the servant's hand, no longer being arrogant, but still sitting down next to Rom seriously, and whispered: "I have found out clearly, this matter really happened because of you. From now on.
Judging from your reaction just now, you must be up to something, so you must be responsible."
Rom almost glared, but he didn't want to offend the other person too much. But he was really frightened just now, so he asked angrily: "What happened? You came here to scare me like this."
"Didn't I hear that someone purchased magic materials at a 50% premium? I happen to know a few supervisors in charge of magic materials in the city." When Jason said this, he suddenly complained loudly: "You also know that we have to prepare for war now, what?
All are rising.
The businessmen in the south took advantage of us and raised the price of grain while suppressing the materials we sold. In the past two months, the prices of lumber and ore in the north have dropped by 20%, but the price of grain has increased by 50%.
Food is already very expensive in our north, and raising the price by 50 percent is too much. The wizarding group in the city could just tolerate it for a while, but profiteers in the south are eyeing the price of magic materials, which is unacceptable.
"
Rom thought disdainfully: "The price of food has been rising for more than a day or two. In the past, we didn't see wizards coming out to complain. It's not because the south has lowered the price of magic materials, and the wizards' interests have been harmed, so they jumped out."
Many magical materials are unique to the North. In addition to the demon-related legacy, there are also frequent lightning strikes in the Icefield Mountains. For example, the calcium carbide produced in special environments is an excellent alchemical material that cannot be found elsewhere.
Relying on the power of the Phils family, the wizards of Banshee Castle used to monopolize the business of magic materials in the North. The wizard tower built by more than thirty wizards was as warm as spring, with flowers blooming all year round, regardless of the crying and wailing of the outside world.
But the profiteers in the south are now buying them at a lower price, and the wizards including Jason are furious. They originally stocked up a large amount of magic materials, but now they are unwilling to sell them at a lower price - they just happened to find out that someone in the city is paying a premium to buy the goods.
The people in the wizarding group didn't have to think too much at all, and Wizard Jason found Rom directly without any effort. He currently has a large amount of goods in hand, and he just wants to get rid of it as soon as possible.
"Rom, I've always been nice to you. As promised, I don't care who you are representing, but you must buy my goods. Remember, there must be a 50% premium on the original price. Absolutely
You can’t let me lose money.”
The laboratory was quiet, and several magic lamps were heating the alchemy reactor, making some bubbling sounds. Wizard Jason also handed over his bill of goods, tapped his fingers on the table, and said seriously: "This deal is absolutely absolute."
You can’t lose money.”
The sound of knocking on the table was forceful, and it seemed that this matter was not negotiable. Rom was a little strange, and glanced at the inventory. The materials were nothing special. Looking at the quantity..., Rom screamed strangely, "So
many?"
Shh..., Wizard Jason's majestic aura disappeared immediately. He pressed Rom's shoulders to signal him not to be too nervous, "If it's not too much, why should I ask you?"
"Where did you get it from? I'm afraid even the warehouse in Banshee Castle doesn't have that much. There are tens of thousands of calcium carbide alone, which is almost equivalent to the Northland's production in half a year."
"Don't ask about this. It has to be sold anyway, and the price must be 50% higher." Wizard Jason was resolute and had no intention of letting go.
Roman took the bill of goods and thought about it and felt something was wrong. He nodded in agreement, coaxed Wizard Jason away, and then sent his butler out to inquire about the news. At the same time, he sent someone to contact Seth to ask if he would accept it.
Magic materials.
There was no contact with Seth for the time being, and the housekeeper didn't know what happened specifically. However, after receiving Rohm's promise, Wizard Jason came back within an hour and brought five large carts of goods.
This is not food and cloth, but magic material. Five carts full, which is too much. After Jason brought the things, he said: "Rom, get rid of it as soon as possible. I allow you to buy it on credit, but you must not
procrastination."
Rom was so frightened again that he opened a cargo box at random, and inside was the Northland specialty 'Ice Bat Blood'. This thing must be kept frozen, and the box it contains alone is a valuable magic device.
At this time, Rom finally realized the seriousness of the problem, "Where did this bastard Jason get these things from? This is definitely not something he can do alone. I don't know who is secretly doing it."
After waiting uneasily for a long time, Roma's housekeeper ran back with a panicked look on his face and said anxiously: "I'm afraid something is really wrong."
The situation described by the housekeeper was quite fragmented. Although the truth of the matter was not found, the general situation can still be guessed from several aspects.
After hearing this, Roma was frightened. He knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to make the decision, so he would have to drag the tall man Zhou Qingfeng out. He went to find Seth to report, but he couldn't trust him and insisted on asking Zhou Qingfeng to explain it face to face.
So before dark, the new wizard of the Banshee Castle wizard group took a carriage out of the city in panic. When he arrived at the lumberyard outside the city, he fell several times while relying on the light spell to illuminate himself.
Only then did I meet the real owner.
Zhou Qingfeng was feeling proud of his successful talent plan. When he saw Roma running towards him in a panic, he was amused, "Your Excellency is now an official wizard after all. Why are you acting like you are on the run?"
"We are in trouble." Roma hurriedly took a few steps and rushed forward like Jason did during the day. He grabbed Zhou Qingfeng and shouted: "If this trouble is not solved, you will definitely suffer."
Zhou Qingfeng had some free time and greeted calmly: "The city gates should be closed now, and you can't go back. I'll ask the hidden servant to arrange a room for you, and you can stay. If you have anything to do, tell me slowly."
Rom had no intention of speaking slowly. He grabbed Zhou Qingfeng's sleeve and refused to let go, "You engaged in premium acquisition, and this time you really caused trouble. You must solve it."
"Too many goods?" Zhou Qingfeng replied calmly and with a smile: "I just bought them all. Are you so panicked?"
"If there was just a lot of goods, it would be fine to leave it to you. But now some goods are too much and some are too little, so we have to rely on you. If we don't handle it well, the whole situation will be in chaos."
"What do you mean?" Zhou Qingfeng listened quietly.
Rohm gasped and said seriously: "The Phils family wants to continue to be the king of the North. Recently, they are poaching people everywhere, buying off lords from all over the country, and asking them to swear allegiance to them.
There are two ways to buy things. One is to buy goods produced in various places at high prices, and the other is to sell grain and other materials at low prices. But now that you have come out to disrupt the situation, the Phils family will not be able to continue.
Now we need to settle this matter quickly before Louis Firth notices it. Otherwise, once it is traced..." Rom suddenly looked at Zhou Qingfeng, blinking and lost words - really traced it,
