Chapter 58 Preliminary Cooperation



In order to make the deal, Hook told almost everything he knew and could say.

In addition to the prices of various commodities, Roning discovered an interesting thing - the magic core.

In his understanding, the magic core is the source of magic power of Warcraft, similar to the role of a battery. After Hook's explanation, he has a deeper understanding of the role of the magic core.

The magic core is a crystalline substance. Even if it is ground into pieces, it remains in granular form and can still react with mana. This is why it can be used as a material for mana ink.

In addition, when a magician uses his mental power to perceive a complete magic core, he can sense the spell patterns inside the magic core.

This spell pattern is the key to Warcraft's ability to use magic, and it is also the origin of early magicians' mastery of spell patterns.

When a Warcraft can use multiple spells, its magic core often has many spell patterns. These spell patterns may be closely combined, and the magician needs to separate them, which is one of the magician's daily research work.

Through this kind of research, the probability of a magician mastering this magic can be greatly improved, which is much more effective than practicing with a spell book.

Roning didn't feel anything about this.

After all, he mastered the spell after practicing a few times with the help of the spell book, and felt that learning magic was not too difficult.

Perhaps this is the difference between geniuses and ordinary people.

The conversation lasted for a long time before both sides finally turned the topic back to shopping.

Roning wasted no time and immediately asked to buy five purple magic crystals, twenty-seven bottles of level 2 magic ink, six pieces of level 2 magic beast leather, and the spell books "Small Flame" and "Fireball".

Magic crystals are used for the first charge; spell ink and monster leather are pre-made materials for magicians to make spell scrolls by the Silva Magic Chamber of Commerce.

A bottle of 10 ml spell ink costs 6 gold coins, which can draw an average of one level 2 spell scroll; a piece of Warcraft leather costs 15 gold coins, which can make an average of five spell scrolls.

The price of the two spell books is relatively cheap, basically equivalent to half of the spell scrolls of the same level, and only requires 10 gold coins in total.

The purchase of these four categories of items cost a total of 762 gold coins!

The bulk of it was magic crystals, five of which were worth 500 gold coins, spell ink 162, and leather was less expensive, costing only 90 gold coins.

Roning now has a total of thirty bottles of spell ink, which, combined with six pieces of Warcraft leather, can be used to make thirty spell scrolls, and he can earn back 510 gold coins. He spends a lot, but earns a lot.

When Hook saw such a large order, his eyes were full of stars and he wanted to call Roning "grandpa".

Of course, Ronin had to bargain a lot, and finally got 32 gold coins, and also asked for a fine feather pen and a book explaining the making of spell scrolls.

When seeing Luo Ning off, all the salesmen on the first floor were startled. One by one, they gave him the most enthusiastic looks, especially some of the pretty waitresses, who regretted that they had no chance, otherwise they would have wanted to go with Luo Ning.

Outside the Chamber of Commerce building, Hook sent Roning outside.

"Lord Luo Ning, it's settled then. One month later, in early October, I will arrange a caravan to go to your territory!"

"Haha, welcome, welcome!"

Luo Ning smiled and stretched out his hand, and shook hands with the other party enthusiastically twice while the other party was in a daze.

The proposal to let the Silva Magic Chamber of Commerce come to Shanlin Town was actually proposed by Hook. On the surface, he said that he wanted to collect the newly made spell scrolls, but in fact he wanted to continue selling spell ink and monster leather to Ronin.

After all, even if Roning made thirty healing spell scrolls in the next month, the Chamber of Commerce would only make a profit of a few dozen gold coins.

But if you sell more magic ink to Ronin, you can make more money.

For Luo Ning, few chambers of commerce come to Shanlin Town.

He could use the Silva Magic Chamber of Commerce's arrival as an opportunity to spread the word, which might have a positive effect and make other chambers of commerce interested in Shanlin Town.

As for the risks in passing through the woods to Shanlin Town, Roning didn't need to worry about it.

Not to mention the Warcraft, even if Baron Leisen of the Sean Territory saw it, he would not provoke it easily.

As he watched Roning and the other two leave, the smile on Hook's face never faded.

It was his fortune to meet such a sponsor! "Promotion and salary increase!"

Hook was very excited just thinking about it. In his eyes, Roning was a cash cow, and a cash cow facing him.

"A big client like this needs to be reported to Master Jixiu!"

Jixiu Heer is the general manager of the Silva Magic Chamber of Commerce's branch in Muma City. He is a level 5 chief magician and spends most of his time in the Chamber of Commerce building.

Hook sorted out the receipts and gold coins, went up the spiral stairs and reached the top floor.

Not to mention what was happening on Hook's side, Roning, who had walked out of the Magic Energy Chamber of Commerce building, had already completed the main purchases of this trip to Muma City.

The only things left to buy were wrought iron, farm tools, and a visit to the slave exchange to inquire about the price of slaves.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Roning took Elrond and McKeon to the tavern where he had agreed to meet with Tom and Galen.

It is called a pub, but actually it is a restaurant, except that there are more people drinking in the hall.

As soon as he came in, noisy shouts and yells kept pouring into Luo Ning's ears. This place was even more lively than the morning vegetable market.

Roning took a look and saw that most of the people eating and drinking in the hall were hunters and mercenaries.

For these people who are used to adventure and travel, the happiest time is to eat and drink with their friends. Therefore, most of them appear to be particularly heroic when drinking, speak loudly, and some are even used to swearing vulgar words.

They were basically free people, with only a very small number of them being special slaves who did not have to farm the land.

Although there are professional knights among them, only a few can reach the intermediate level.

Although they are extraordinary people, their ancestors have no background and no channels. It is difficult for them to enter the sight of the nobles or major forces, and they have no channels to join them.

After all, for some nobles, they would rather temporarily employ extraordinary people with unclear origins than accept their allegiance.

It flashed through Roning's mind whether he should hire a few professional knights to deal with Lord Sen, but he suppressed the idea as soon as it appeared.

Mercenaries' business mainly focuses on escorting caravans, accepting specific commissions to hunt monsters, protecting certain characters, etc. If you want them to deal with noble territories, you have to pay a huge price.

Even if you pay, the other party will still evaluate the chances of winning and potential dangers. If the chances of winning are slim and there is a possibility of offending a larger noble, no matter how much money you pay, the mercenaries probably won't be willing to die.

In addition, due to the instability of mercenaries and the lack of loyalty of the knights in the territory, once Ronin hires them, Baron Leisen may already know his intentions before he takes any action against the Lord of Sen.

But then again, as long as these mercenaries earn enough money, or their own strength reaches a certain level, or they form a strong mercenary group, they are still qualified to sit down and talk with the nobles.

It is said that the leaders of the Black Gold Brotherhood and the Polante Thieves Group, which are active in the southeastern part of Wushan Territory, started out as mercenaries.

Now that the business is successful, it has not only occupied several cities in the southeast, but also left Wiggins and others helpless.

In short, the nobles have their own lives, and the common people have their own way of living, and most of the time they do not interact with each other.

Roning paid eight silver coins and asked the waiter to prepare an independent and spacious box for them, which was isolated from most of the noisy sounds outside.

He held five magic crystals in his hand, and at the same time took out the magic crystal trophies he got from Pedro from the space ring.

The six magic crystals have been collected, and now it’s time to make the first charge.
