"Excuse me...are they sold here?" Beside the city wall of the Storm Empire, in front of a small store, a man wearing Hanfu with a gold and jade pendant hanging around his waist asked in broken local aboriginal language.
The boss who sells cloth.
The indigenous boss looked at this wealthy businessman who was obviously from the Airanhill Empire, waved his hand and said: "No sale! No sale!"
This is the third foreign businessman who has come here to buy a store in the past few days. He is a little impatient. He really wants to know why these businessmen from afar want to buy their store.
Storefront.
You must know that this store was passed down from his family. Although the location is average, it is enough to support their family. If it is sold, what will happen to their family in the future?
If he hadn't seen two burly guards standing behind this man in gorgeous clothes, holding long swords, his expression might have been even more impatient.
Although there are now many notices posted in the city explaining some of the basic laws of the Elanshir Empire, claiming that no forced buying or selling is allowed, and that everyone enjoys some of the legitimate rights and interests of empire citizens - the locals still don't quite believe these notices.
What to say.
In short, he was unwilling to provoke these people from the Elanthir Empire, because he was very afraid of the rows of battle puppet robots carrying weapons that roamed the streets.
"Set a price! As long as you are willing to sell this store, I can give you a large sum of money!" The wealthy businessman did not turn around and leave immediately, but continued to speak with a smile.
The local indigenous bosses looked at the wealthy businessmen again, as if they were looking at a fool - they wanted to use some colorful pieces of paper to defraud their stores, which was simply a wishful thinking.
These guys from the Ellandhill Empire call money for paper with weird patterns and a man’s stinky face printed on it, saying that you can buy many good things that you have never heard of... This
The indigenous boss thinks it is simply impossible!
"Ahem... I don't sell in this store, you'd better leave as soon as possible." Even for the sake of the two guards holding long swords, the indigenous boss did not dare to say anything harsh, he just spoke again.
Such a sentence.
The wealthy businessman still had no intention of leaving, but continued to smile and said: "Brother, what do you want, food? Gold? Anything is fine, as long as you can think of it, you can say it..."
"Gold? Grain?" The indigenous boss looked at the wealthy businessman a little differently this time, because in this world, gold is a hard currency and can be regarded as the most valuable trading currency.
Being willing to give gold instead of colorful pieces of paper showed that the businessman was not here to deceive people, which made the tireless indigenous boss somewhat willing to continue the conversation.
"I can give you a lot of gold coins! Pure gold!" The wealthy businessman smiled and looked so amiable.
He reached out and took a fine gold coin from his guard, and handed it to the indigenous boss: "Look at this. How many gold coins do you think are the same as this one?"
"This?" Taking the coin from the wealthy businessman, the native boss of the Storm Empire carefully identified the gold coin in his hand.
This is a very beautifully minted gold coin, with gears around it to prevent wear and tear, and the thickness is very even.
There is a vertical bar carved on the front of the gold coin, and inside the vertical bar are some horizontal stripes. Next to the vertical bar, there is a strange symbol.
On the back of this gold coin is an eagle spreading its wings. Just this engraving looks worth a lot of money.
Based on the cloth shop owner's experience, this gold coin is definitely pure gold. It is heavy in his hand and is obviously very valuable.
So he held the gold coin, stretched out his palm greedily, and said proudly: "These gold coins are exactly the same. If you are willing to give me 1,000 of them, I will sell you this store!"
"A thousand?" The wealthy businessman from the Elanhill Empire, who was wearing gorgeous clothes, was obviously stunned, with an incredible expression on his face.
He really couldn't believe that the other party actually spoke directly and asked for such a surprising number.
"Yes! One thousand!" The indigenous boss, who felt that the price he offered would definitely scare the other party away, nodded proudly and said.
The smile on the wealthy merchant's face became even brighter, and he immediately agreed to the other party's offer: "Deal! I can give you 1,000 gold coins like this right away!"
As he spoke, he asked a guard behind him to hand the drafted contract to the indigenous boss: "Sign it! Hurry up! I will give you an additional 1,000 gold coins. Everything in your house will be
Sell it to me!"
Happiness seemed to come too suddenly, making the indigenous boss a little dizzy. He really couldn't believe that the cloth and shabby tables and chairs in his house could be sold for 1,000 gold coins.
So he quickly grabbed the contract, put his fingerprint on it, and wrote his name.
Not long after, he carried his heavy bag and hurriedly left the store he had kept for more than ten years. He is now prosperous, and with these gold coins, he can even go home and become a real rich man.
.
And inside that store, the businessman from the Eilanhill Empire slapped the chair twice with his hand, dusted off the non-existent dust, sat on the chair, and finally couldn't help laughing.
At the same time, the two guards holding their swords couldn't help but started laughing.
The businessman took out a gold coin and threw it into the air. The coin fell on the ground not far away, made a crisp sound, and then rolled to the corner of the wall.
"I didn't expect to buy this store at such a cheap price." The businessman smiled and looked at the coins in the corner and said.
He was telling the truth, because gold mines have been found on many planets in the vast Airansil Empire. Now the gold in the Airansil Empire is really not much more expensive than iron.
The gold, silver and other metals owned by the Elanthir Empire are no longer considered precious metals. The current currency of the empire, the most basic currency value is one gold coin, which is the legendary pure gold Elanthir Empire gold coin.
This kind of currency is about 1 yuan of the Ailan Hill Empire's currency... and what the merchant just took out is about 1,000 yuan of the Ailan Hill Empire's current currency. Its purchasing power is really not that high.
Probably, I can buy two large-screen LCD TVs with not too advanced performance...
