Great Nobleman
Chapter 298 This is a Win-Win!
Because the conflict between the Kaya Empire's northern border and the orcs has intensified.
The trading market in Greystone Castle has many items from the Orc Empire that Brand has not seen before.
In fact, there are some human nations in the northern part of the Human Alliance that maintain overt and covert business ties with certain tribes of the Orc Empire.
Although the two sides are enemies on the surface, in the face of complex reality and interests, it is not impossible to temporarily let go of hatred.
Of course, this kind of thing mostly happened in some duchies or kingdoms where the internal situation was relatively chaotic.
For a powerful empire like the Kaya Empire, if you want to do some smuggling business with orcs, you can do it outside the border.
But if those businesses involve things within the borders...
The various professional spells of the Imperial Judiciary will tell you what it means to be pervasive!
All in all, in the peaceful era, all kinds of items from the Orc Empire were considered rare in the Kaya Empire.
That is to say, the conflict between the border area and the orcs has intensified recently. Otherwise, it is impossible to see all kinds of items from the orc empire in the trading market of any medium-sized fortress.
For many big businessmen and nobles with keen business sense.
The significance of the Northern Expedition of the Kaya Empire is not just to expand the territory, it is also a kind of carnival in the commercial field.
In addition to the large amount of military supplies needed by the Kaya Empire's army, there will also be a large number of "unknown items" from the Orc Empire in the Kaya Empire.
And this time is the time to test your eyesight, knowledge and wisdom!
A smart big businessman can command a sky-high price even for a broken shoe thrown by an orc in a corner.
And stupid adventurers, holding priceless gems, can only be taken away by merchants as rags.
And Brand, as a master of runes and circles with knowledge, wisdom and strong artistic vision, will naturally not be deceived by the businessman's rhetoric like those stupid adventurers!
At this moment, he is conducting a silent "hunting"!
"What is this? Some kind of beast's fur?"
Looking at a "animal skin" with a dark brown body and extremely shiny and neat fluff on the booth in front of him, Brand showed a curious look.
Hearing Brand's question, the business owner sitting behind the booth looked at Brand and Catherine's clothes for a moment, and he smiled proudly and said:
"My young master, you have such a good vision! I don't know if you have heard of the giant Beamon?
In the orc empire, some large tribes raised a giant monster we called Beamon.
An adult Bimon's strength can even rival that of a giant dragon, and what is in front of you now is a Bimon skin that can rival the scale of a giant dragon! "
After hearing what the businessman said, Brand raised his eyebrows in surprise!
Then, impatiently, he took the animal skin called "Bimeng Skin" by the merchant and looked at it carefully.
After looking at it for a while, Brand said suspiciously:
"Beamon is a kind of monster, right? Since it is a monster skin, why does it have no reaction to the magic power I injected like an ordinary animal skin?"
After saying this, Brand threw the "animal skin" in his hand on the booth, looked at the businessman with an unkind expression and said:
"Could you be using some ordinary beast skin to deceive me? Besides, you are just an ordinary businessman, and you still have the ability to obtain bimen skin that is comparable to dragon scales?"
He suddenly heard Brand talking about mage professional vocabulary such as "magic power" and "reaction", and the businessman instantly realized that the noble descendant in luxurious clothes in front of him was a noble and not easy to fool mage.
So he immediately changed his words:
"Actually, I'm not sure whether it's a skin or not, but what I'm sure of is that it's definitely not an ordinary animal skin. I can show you what's special about it!"
While saying this, the businessman took out a small knife and stabbed hard at the "bimen skin".
When the knife went down, although there was a large depression on the surface of the "Bimeng skin", it was not actually pierced. As the merchant retracted the knife, its surface returned to its original state in an instant.
After demonstrating this exceptional toughness and ductility, the merchant added:
"I bought this animal skin from an adventurer, and it cost a high price of 3000 magic gold coins.
According to the adventurer, he went deep into the hinterland of the orcs and stole it from a large orc tribe at the risk of nine deaths.
When he was escaping, more than one big orc chased him!
The process is extremely dangerous!
However, relying on his formidable strength and family-inherited concealment skills, he managed to escape in the end!
If you want to buy this animal skin, young master, I will definitely not sell it below this purchase price! "
Hearing this, Brand frowned in displeasure.
This animal skin is Thaksin stolen from the orc tribe!
But a mere unknown adventurer can still escape and ascend to heaven under the pursuit of several big orcs?
Is this a bit too exaggerated?
In addition, the high price of 3000 magic gold coins...
Just when Brand was about to say something, Catherine suddenly frowned and said:
"Master, do you think this animal skin is a quilt that some orc covered while sleeping?"
Hearing Catherine's words, he carefully looked at the size and shape of the animal hide...
Brand subconsciously said:
"After hearing what you said, I also feel a little similar, especially the size and shape.
Moreover, this piece of animal skin is so malleable that it is not easy to be damaged. For orcs with thick hands and feet, it is the best to use it as a quilt! "
Hearing the discussion between the two, the boss retorted solemnly:
"How could this be a quilt? This fur is obviously untreated native fur! Most of the quilts made by orcs have been simply tanned!"
Although the boss explained in this way, both Brand and Catherine's eyes were full of disbelief.
Like the owner said, "most" quilts are treated, but there are always some that are not!
After being silent for a while, facing the ugly face of the merchant boss in front of him, Brand still spoke out:
"This fur still has some merits, I plan to buy it back and study it.
As for the high price of 3000 magic gold coins, boss, you should stop joking.
I think 10 magic gold coins..."
"make a deal!"
I heard Brand offer a "high price" of 10 magic gold coins.
The merchant boss didn't return the price at all, and he couldn't wait to agree to the deal without waiting for Brand to finish speaking!
As for Brand, although he also knew that the price he yelled casually was a bit high, he was caught off guard by the boss.
It's just ten magic gold coins, and as a rich man, he doesn't pay much attention to them.
Put 10 magic gold coins in the palm of the boss, and put the "unknown animal skin" behind the space necklace.
With a smile on his face, Brand bid farewell to the merchant owner who was also smiling, and then left the booth directly with Catherine.
——Although the process was bumpy, it was a win-win situation! !
