Chapter 26 Trading



Carl came to the booth again.

"There are six portions of soul powder and twelve black stones in total. Uncle, just give me ten." Aya rubbed her hands, her little face flushed.

Ten black stones were already the largest single transaction she had ever made since she started setting up her stall.

After deducting the cost of purchasing soul powder from other people, I can earn nearly three black stones.

"Six portions?" Carl frowned slightly, squatted down to check the powder, and said with a slightly unhappy tone: "That's all?"

Out of consideration for the late stall owner Cologne, he gave the other party enough time to collect soul powder, but only six portions were obtained, far from his goal.

"Uncle..." Aya's face turned pale, and then she gritted her teeth and said, "I am incompetent, but if you give me some more time, I will definitely be able to collect more soul powder."

"I guarantee it with my life!"

Carl looked up.

The other party did not make excuses for his insufficient collection, but directly admitted that he was not capable enough.

This was somewhat beyond his expectations.

If it were someone else, they would most likely say that they have tried their best, that other people don’t have any soul fans, etc.

"one day."

Standing up, Karl spoke slowly: "Give you one day, how much soul powder can you collect?"

"One day?" Aya lowered her head, thought for a moment, and then answered:

"Twenty copies!"

"At least twenty copies. If you are willing to lend me the capital, I can collect thirty copies."

"Okay then." Carl nodded. "Just twenty copies. I'll come again at this time tomorrow. I hope you can collect them as you said."

As he spoke, he took out the ten black stones he had exchanged and handed them over.

As for lending the other party the capital...

He had no such plan, and his willingness to continue doing business with the other party was Carl's greatest goodwill at the moment.

"Thank you, uncle."

Aya took the black stone with excitement and patted her shriveled chest desperately:

"By tomorrow, I will definitely collect all of them."

Karl did not respond and turned away. No matter how much he said now, it would not be as good as having enough words when the time comes.

He also needed to raise supplies.

Twenty portions of soul powder require forty black stones, which can be exchanged for at least a cart of bread and bacon.

One trip is definitely not going to work.

After returning to Signo, he called a carriage to go to the market and bought a cart full of bread and bacon.

At the same time, with the help of fragments of the divine domain, they were sent to Black City in batches and hidden away.

"Um?"

Carl's face was stiff.

After traveling through time and space many times and returning to Signo City, he was shocked to find that he could no longer enter the fragments of the divine realm.

This made him a little flustered.

The fragments of the divine domain and the other world were his biggest trump cards since he traveled through time, but now they are useless?

Fortunately, after waiting for a while, I felt the sensation coming from the depths of my sea of ​​consciousness.

It’s not that it can’t be used.

Instead, multiple crossings in a short period of time are also very tiring for the fragments of the divine domain, and time to rest is needed.

It won’t be usable for at least one day.

"It's good as long as it works. It's good as long as it works."

Carl breathed a sigh of relief:

"I didn't expect there is such a restriction. Fortunately, it's not an emergency situation, otherwise, wouldn't I be in trouble?"

If it can't be used in one day, then wait for another day, but I will definitely not be able to make it in time as agreed with Aya.

The next day.

Carl appears in the Raqqa bazaar.

"Uncle!"

The moment she saw his figure, Aya was overjoyed and stood up from the ground:

"You are here."

She didn’t ask why Karl broke the appointment yesterday, and there was no complaint on her face, she was as enthusiastic as ever.

"Feel sorry."

Carl bowed his head slightly:

"I was delayed yesterday and couldn't come."

"It's okay." Aya waved her hand, with a generous look on her face: "I believe in you, uncle. If there is no other way, you will definitely not break the appointment."

"Uncle, you came at the right time. I went to a few more stores yesterday and bought a total of 32 soul powders."

Those slender arms were covered with scars.

"Aya."

"exist."

"Do you want black stone or food?" Carl said slowly, "I have some bread, bacon and some milk in the city. I can sell them to you at a low price."

"But you need to come with me."

"Bread, bacon, and milk?" Aya swallowed subconsciously, hesitation in her eyes.

Compared to black stone, these things are more cost-effective in the market.

And if it was sold cheaply as Karl said, she could make more money by reselling it.

"Uncle." Aya's eyes flashed: "Please wait a moment."

As he said this, he packed up the things on the stall, put them on his back, turned around and ran to the back.

Some ruins.

"I want the black stone!"

A tall and strong man with a very childish voice sounded:

"Sister, the black stone is readily available. He doesn't dare to play tricks when trading in the market. Who knows what we will encounter if we go out with him?"

"Xiao Nan is right." A hoarse voice followed closely: "Making money steadily is better than anything else. There is no shortage of murders and robberies in Black City."

"But..." Aya struggled:

"The winter moon is coming soon. It will be hard for us to survive without sufficient supplies. Besides, I have been at the market for so long, but the money I earned is not enough to cover the stall fee. This is an opportunity."

"Do you know him?" A staggering old man came out from the darkness and asked:

"Do you know who he is?"

"How can he get so much food? Why do you trust him? Have you ever thought about the consequences?"

The old man kept asking questions and pressing forward step by step.

"I don't know what kind of person he is." Aya shook her head and said seriously, "But Uncle Cologne once said that this person can always get good things that others can't get, and his identity is very mysterious. This kind of person should not be short of money, and there is nothing on me that is worth his attention."

"What if..." The old man paused and held the cane in his hand:

"What if?"

"I want to give it a try." Aya's eyes were fixed. "If he really has a lot of food, I can get in touch with him, which will bring me a lot of benefits in the future."

"If you are deceived..."

"That means I lost the bet, I have to admit defeat!"

"You..." The old man was furious: "I shouldn't have let you buy Cologne's stall in the first place. With your mining skills, you could have lived a stable life."

"Alive?" Aya's face was bitter: "Just alive."

"Mining day and night is no different from being an animal. I don't want to be an animal all my life."

"Sister." The tall and strong boy stepped forward: "I will go with you."

* * * Karl didn't have to wait long before Aya came back again, with a big man wrapped tightly beside her.

"Uncle."

Aya smiled and said, "If there is a lot of food, I am afraid I can't move it all by myself, so I found a companion."

"Um."

Carl nodded slowly.

It was normal for the other party to be cautious, and he did not feel threatened by the big man.

"Let's go!"

He turned around and motioned for the other person to follow.

The city was still covered with snow, the black snow was piling up thicker and thicker on the ground, and sparse and scattered footprints could be seen on the road.

Not long.

"It's right inside."

Carl winked at the wooden house ahead.

Just as Aya was about to step forward, the burly man next to her stretched out his hand to stop her, and then the burly man cautiously came to the door of the wooden house.

“Squeak…”

The wooden door opened.

The sight of piles of bread, meat loaves, and buckets of fresh milk made the strong man freeze in his place.

Aya's body tensed. Although there was no expression on her face, the nails of her ten fingers had pierced into her flesh and blood was oozing out. She herself was completely unaware of the pain.

real!

The other party really has the means to get a lot of food! Karl's expression remained unchanged. Whether it was for the convenience of trading or future development, he needed an agent here. Aya, who had no background, was just the right person.
