Isn’t this the end of the war, Coldwind City and Banshee ‘restored normal business relations’. Businessmen are the most hungry and impatient. As long as there is enough profit, they are willing to risk being hanged.
Zhou Qingfeng wanted food and was extremely short of food. It is not enough to grow the land by oneself. Foreign trade is necessary. The Banshee in the south stuck to Shanglu, but if the Shanglu was really broken, there would be no money to make.
Not long after the war ended, the dense fog town that was originally the battlefield ushered in a new prosperity. Dilapidated buildings were repaired, blocked roads were dredged, and a fleet of traffic came and went, bringing back popularity to the town.
The Principality of Oss in the south is fighting, but agricultural products are still being transported to the north.
Hanfengcheng is constantly upgrading its manufacturing industry, not only for metal products, but also for glass. It is much cheaper than the utensils for wizards.
If you get the cement out again, Uncle Zhou will have to put together the three artifacts.
Now the profit of running North and South Shanglu is extremely high. Zhou Qingfeng deliberately made a profit, attracting a large number of businessmen to flock. Cold Wind City became a rapidly rising business center in the Northland.
With the contradiction alleviated, Powell and Johnson came again. The signboard they played was to spy on the enemy's situation. In fact, they took the funds of Banshee as their capital and prepared to do business.
Just arrived in the cold wind city, the two met a dismounted horse. In the past six months, the city has completely changed. Even the roads have been re-planned, and the city layout has been greatly adjusted.
In addition, the rule of Hugo Lord penetrated into the hearts of the people.
Ordinary people have relieved the heavy pressure they had carried in the past. Residents' taxation, labor, and status have all changed dramatically. Everyone has a lot of lightness in their hearts, sincerely supporting the new ruler.
Two people and one bird took all their families into the city and touched their noses at the passenger terminal. But they didn't arrange their accommodation and hurried towards the market.
Because the food of Banshee Castle is controlled by big merchants, the two of them can't get the goods at all and can only try their luck in Cold Wind City. Before they came, they had known for a long time that if they ran from north to south, the principal would be at least 50% higher.
If you can get tight goods, it is not impossible to make several times the profit.
The market in the city is currently controlled by the Harmony Chamber of Commerce, which has stores that buy and sell different types of goods. Johnson is a spellcaster, and he first goes to the magic material store.
The shop is in the central square of the city and the Wizard's Tower is nearby. The two rode into the car overnight and entered the city early in the morning. The store opened at ten o'clock. They rushed in and picked the goods they wanted.
The store is like a chemical storage warehouse, with hundreds of sealed vials for display on the shelves. Each small bottle is labelled with the name, type and nature.
Johnson came in cheering, ignoring the stumbling of the robe, and stumbled to the cabinet on the shelf. A wizard apprentice came over and glanced, and asked strangely, "Your Excellency, what do you need?"
Johnson trembles his hands and feet, glaring at the category names on the shelf, whispering the names of various casting materials in his mouth, accompanied by a rapid gasp.
Powell followed up and asked anxiously, "How is it? In stock? Don't run in vain. We borrowed usury and calculated interest in days. If we lose money, we two are afraid to go back. ."
Johnson did not speak, only staring at the container exhibits.
Powell's anxious face turned red, and he just took out a leaflet from his pocket and asked the wizard apprentice in the store: "Do you have any of the above items?"
The wizard apprentice only glanced at the eyes and knew what the two were doing.
Hasn't Alsie done the coking process recently? He took advantage of the high-temperature distillation of coal tar and wood tar collected before.
The composition of tar is complex, with tens of thousands of different chemical substances.
Mo Ji and Shu Mei have trained a group of chemical apprentices to separate thousands of compounds such as phenol, hydrocarbons, benzene, and naphthalene from tar through heating, evaporation, condensation, and extraction.
Many of these compounds have magical effects in other worlds, which makes them extremely precious.
Normal wizards are extracted from natural animals, plants or minerals. The purity of magic materials is in the order of several digits, and even the purity of a few points, most of them are impurities.
The purity of the magic materials produced by Alsie can be one or two orders of magnitude higher, and the utility reaches the level that the quantitative change causes the qualitative change.
The wizard of the cold wind city is ‘near the water to get the moon first’, so he obtains far more advanced materials than usual. Their recent spell-casting levels have been greatly improved, and people are constantly advancing to master stronger arcane spells and touching deeper magic webs.
In order to establish a strong image of his own side, Zhou Qingfeng decided to take part in a more'ordinary' pharmaceutical material. He even made special advertisements to distribute to others, also to make more money.
The advertisements were spread out, and the wizards of the Northland were unbelievable at first, but it was indispensable for the merchants to try to buy a part. After they confirmed the effect, they immediately swarmed in and could not stop them.
Nowadays, the tower of the wizard of the cold wind city is in the courtyard, and every day entertains the wizard who is constantly coming. Everyone wants to know how this high-purity magic material came from?
Even if you can't get the secret recipe, you can get great convenience by doing research nearby.
The wizards seem to be rich, but in fact their research is too expensive, and any points on hand are enough to make a lot of money for other classes. But they themselves are caught in a huge imbalance between costs and returns.
To conduct advanced experiments, high-grade materials must be used, but high-grade materials also mean high costs. The closure of the wizarding circle also means that there is too little communication, and everyone is reinventing the wheel.
Zhou Qingfeng only needs to reduce the price of materials to half of the ‘normal’ level, and the wizards of the entire Northland cannot sit still. With a little open policy, Hanfengcheng can reap the talents cultivated by others for decades.
For Powell’s eagerness, the shop’s wizard apprenticeship has been seen much. He only nodded slightly and said, "At present, all magic materials are in sufficient supply, but the price has increased by 20% from last week."
Hearing this, Johnson, who had been staring at the shelves, quickly turned around and looked at Powell. The two nodded abruptly and nodded at the same time-the price is still within the acceptable range, and some earn it.
"We need ‘Nara Oil’’, ‘Bad Demon’s Saliva’, ‘Prunus Extract of Man-Eating Flowers’...
Johnson reported more than a dozen material names in one breath.
These materials have been drawn on the flyers for a long time, and are currently the best selling goods. Transporting them to Banshee Castle can increase the value by two or three times. If it is transported to the Principality of Oss, where the war is raging, it will not matter if it increases tenfold.
The wizard apprentice pouted every time he heard a name, and at the end he could not help saying, "Come in the future and don't use informal names. Noble wizards should use official names, such as'high aromatic hydrocarbons' '.'
It's cold...
Both Johnson and Powell didn’t speak, and they only stood on top of the master’s head and shouted loudly,
Master, this apprentice is taunting you. He deliberately said that you don’t understand, to express himself as smarter. ."
The apprentice's careful thinking was drunk and slightly embarrassing. Johnson even shouted "Shut up" and didn't want to listen to his pets to expose short. The two sides don't want to dispute, and it's serious to get the deal done quickly.
The transaction took place in the back room of the store. The apprentice fetched the goods in glass bottles and Johnson evaluated them on the spot. Every appraisal can excite him inexplicably.
Powell took out a small bag with magic gems inside for easy portability. The two of them misappropriated the intelligence funds given by Banshee Castle, and also put up all their net worth. They even borrowed daily interest sharks and collected 1,500 gold coins.
Seeing that the two were nervous and solemn about their affairs, they only offered such a small amount of money, and the apprentice pouted again. This expression was caught by Tu Du, and it shouted again-Master, he was saying that you two are poor ghosts!
