my age of magic

Chapter 132 132. Small town market
When Kurtz opened the curtain and walked in, his eye circles were still red, and his eyes were swollen like two peaches.

Katerina and I sat on the wooden pier of the balcony. I lazily put my hands on the exquisite mahogany railings and looked out as I wished. Our guest room is on the second floor of the old castle. The racks are very high, about ten meters high, so when I stand on the balcony on the second floor, I can still have a panoramic view of the town. Although there are many buildings that only see a blurred roof, I can still Let me appreciate the unique orc architectural style of the town's quaint atmosphere.The balustrades were thickly painted with black varnish, which glistened in the afternoon sun.

Katerina on the side was sitting on a wooden pier, with her chin supported by her hands, her eyes were lost in thought, her beautiful red face and big watery eyes, no matter how you looked at it, she felt that it was a disaster for the country and the people.

Qige changed into a dedicated magic suit provided by the Imperial Academy of Magic. The striped long trousers made her look taller. Her wet long hair was casually tied into a ponytail, and it turned into wine red. I think Qige became a magician , the biggest help to her is that it can make her more beautiful.In her carry-on luggage, the most frequently carried items were bottles and cans of magic potions, and among these magic potions, the most numerous were dyes, various perfumes, and lip oils.I even think that she chose to study magic pharmacy, in fact, to make herself more glamorous.At this time, she was sitting on a high chair next to the wooden table in the room, holding a glass of apple juice in her hand, and asked me suspiciously: "Jia, why is there red lip oil on the corner of your mouth?"

I was like a child who was found out for doing something wrong. I was so frightened that I jumped up from the wooden pier and ran to the copper mirror in the room, colliding with Kurtz who had just entered the room.

"Jia, where are you going?" Kurtz asked me, rubbing his chin.

My head was right on his chin, and his bones were so hard that I felt a burning pain on the top of my head.I touched the top of my head to make sure that I was not knocked out of the big bag, and said to him: "It's nothing, it may be that I just ate a red berry and it got on my mouth."

At this time, I moved my face to the mirror, and saw that the childish-looking face in the mirror was clean and without anything. At this time, I took a peek at Katerina, and saw her stealing Laughing, the lips were clearly stained with light pink lip oil, only then did I know that I was teased by the weird Qige again.My silly appearance made Qige laugh out loud.

"I thought I would come here to comfort you, but now it seems that you don't care at all!" Kurz said with a dumb smile.

Qige widened his eyes and sneered, "We've been in the dance troupe for so long, and I've seen even dirtier ones. Your nephew is just a child. He just entered puberty, and he's just at the age when he's curious about the opposite sex. He's an idiot. How to chase after a girl's cub, want to express yourself in front of a beautiful opposite sex, but don't know how to do it, we will not be as knowledgeable as him."

"Az, just looking at his appearance, your nephew is about the same age as you!" I put my arm around his shoulder, this guy grew taller, and now I have to stand on tiptoe to barely reach his shoulder.

"Yeah, I was born in the same year as me, and we both participated in coming-of-age ceremonies this year. You just saw him wearing a shaman robe, which is the clothes he is going to wear at the coming-of-age ceremony." Kurz said, "Ha Haha" laughed, apparently since he got the set of devil antelope light leather armor he sewed, he began to comment unscrupulously on the costumes of other teenagers.

The few of us sat together and discussed what to do next. The first thing to do was to see the bulky weapons we captured were sold. I remembered the experience of being slaughtered when we sold mountain axes in Yemen town. Now we have to discuss how to sell those two giant sabers for a good price. Among the weapons we seized from the prairie bandits last time, the only ones worth some money were three iron and wooden bows and one that was cut off. The black iron gun.

Kuz was too unclear about the situation of the weapons firm in Gludin Town, so he rang the bell and called the butler Kidd. After hearing our question, the big butler of the castle said directly: "Actually, The big chief always does this, he will call the people from the arms dealer in the town, let them make a price together, and whoever bids the most will sell it."

This method is simple, and we all raised our hands in approval, so we asked Butler Kidd to help us contact the buyers of those weapons firms.Afterwards, we asked Kidd about the situation of the potion shops in the town in detail. Kidd exaggerated like a super notebook, and told the situation of the potion shops in Gludin Town one by one. Eighth, and then introduced several very powerful auction houses to us.

After lunch, the four of us left the old castle of the Kurtz family and merged into the flow of people on the street.

In Gludin Town, the largest number of companies are potion companies and leather companies. These companies are basically trading between the human race and the beast race. These companies purchase all kinds of herbal medicines from the beast race all year round. , leather, rare ores, magic materials, magic cores and magic crystals, etc. are sold to the human race, and then transported back from the human race are magic constructs, exquisite magic utensils, and some luxury goods for life, etc., and now Taking advantage of the famine, they began to transport food here again.

Not long after, we appeared on the busiest main street in the center of the town, and walked out of a shop. The plaque on the top of the shop read "Fenghuiyuan Potion Company" in Orc language and Imperial language at the same time. De said, this is one of the largest potion shops in Gludin Town. We continued to walk west along the street with a little regret. This is already the seventh potion shop we have inquired about, but among these potion shops , either they don’t do the ice grass business, or they are just out of stock, and the Fenghuiyuan potion business that just came out, the store expressed its regret, and it happened that a few days ago, a person came over from Sloit City The magician bought all the ice grass that was not stored in the shop.

Yes, this time our goal in Gludin Township is very clear, that is, to buy some rare magical herbs - ice grass.Use it to enhance the power of our frost scrolls. For now, all we can rely on is the frost traps made with frost scrolls.So we need more ice grass, and strive to make more frost scrolls that enhance the freezing attribute.

We are not sure that we can wipe out those swamp zombies. We originally planned to try our luck in the town of Gludin to see if we can wait for Sister Guoguo and their Wind Chaser adventure group. If we can invite Viru and others to the Death Swamp Drowning on the edge, hunting the swamp zombies there, things are much simpler.

But if we can't wait for Viru's adventure group during the time we stay in the town of Gludin, then we won't stop too much, and there are a group of orcs waiting to eat and drink behind us As for the refugees, staying here for one more day will waste some more food. Why don't we go to the swamp by ourselves to find out how to deal with the swamp zombies. Ever since Kurz and I cooperated with each other and successfully hunted the lonely magic antelope and wind wolf , and later successfully hunted three groups of small magic antelope herds, our self-confidence has been greatly inflated.

We are also ordering a custom batch of beast clips from the blacksmith shop, this small beast clip will follow our design requirements, add two small hooks on both ends of the clip, so that the reel can be mounted on the beast clip will become more convenient.

Walking and chatting on the bustling street, Kurz told us his childhood happiness and speaking skills based on his childhood memories. He also bought four guavas from a werewolf child with a basket of green fruits on his head. The fruit tastes a bit like eggplant.We finally walked to the largest potion firm in the town, which is a potion firm specializing in rare herbal medicines, with the words "Golden Elixir Potion Firm" on the plaque.

"What do you guys need? This store only buys and sells magical herbs of a quality above the first level." A human maid stood at the door, and I finally saw a familiar smile on her face. The smile I have seen the most in this book is a professional smile, it is like a woman with a smiling face, no matter when she faces a rich merchant or a homeless beggar, in the next moment, she can naturally Raise her smile.

I can't tell whether it's disgust or love, but I can see such professional waiters here, and my heart is in a trance.

"We want to buy some ice grass, do you have it here?"

It was Qige who spoke. She wore a consecrated magic suit when she went to the street. That eye-catching black and white striped suit told everyone who knew something about the magic academy: I am a student of the magic academy. magician.She stood up to buy the ice grass, so she didn't need to find any reason. It can be said that she bought an expensive ice grass to give to her mentor, or a magician didn't need any reason to buy the precious ice grass. , need, just buy it!

The maid looked at us in surprise, but it was only for a fleeting moment. Obviously, she also underestimated our purchasing power, and she didn't expect that what we proposed was the top-quality herb among the first-level magic herbs—— — Frost Grass.

"Ah! Please come with me. It just so happened that a batch of ice grass with excellent quality just arrived in our store yesterday. However, the orcs on the Pai Plateau have been busy with spring hunting recently, and the ice grass has been out of stock for a long time. Now, the price of the ice grass is very high.” The maid took us all the way into the small hall inside the shop, introduced the situation of the ice grass to us, and then asked Qige: “Apart from the ice grass, what do you know about the ice grass? Do you need any other magic herbs?"

We walked into this small hall like a secret room. In the center of the small hall less than ten square meters there was a round mahogany table surrounded by a few wooden chairs with backrests. When we sat down one after another, Qi Ge Cai raised his head and said to her, "Look at the ice grass first!"

The maid just said: "Please wait a moment!" and turned around to go out.

Not long enough, an old human race opened the curtain and walked in, and politely said to us: "Wait a long time! Wait a long time!"

The maid who followed behind him was carrying a wooden tray, on which was a very elegant red cloth, and on the red cloth were placed side by side three boxes carved from cold jade, which grew in the extremely cold region. Icegrass is a cool herbal medicine, so it needs to be stored in a colder place so as not to lose its medicinal properties, and the box made of cold jade is the most suitable container for storing icegrass.These cold jades themselves are also magic materials. When making milky white ink, cold jade powder is also used. The price of cold jade powder in the market is not expensive, but the price of cold jade is not low. The box must be worth at least thirty silver coins.

The old man didn't talk nonsense, he opened the lids of the three boxes one by one, and then began to introduce the three plants of ice grass, because the size, number of leaf pods and number of flower buds of each plant of ice grass are different, so the price At that time, the prices of the three ice grasses were also slightly different.But after hearing the price quoted by the old man, we also looked a little ugly.All these subtle expressions were watched by the old human race calmly.

The few of us really didn't think that the ice grass would be so expensive. Obviously, in the wasteland, the tauren herb picker gave us a lot of favors.The selling prices of the three Ice Grass were three gold and fifteen silver, three gold and eighteen silver, and three gold and 47 silver.Basically, the price of each ice grass has reached more than three gold.With such a high price, if the ice grass is mixed with the milky white ink to make a frost scroll to hunt the devil antelope, it will not make much money.

After looking at the quality of the ice grass, in order to maintain the ice attribute of the ice grass, the old man put the lids of these cold jade boxes back on.

"Let's discuss it. I don't know which one you like?" The old man asked Xiang Qige with a smile on his face.

Seeing that the few of us hesitated and didn't speak, the old man quickly changed his tone and said with a smile: "If it's in summer, the price of the ice grass can be reduced by [-]%! If you don't want to continue, you might as well wait for two months!"

Qige frowned and looked at the old man and said, "Why are you not in a hurry? Are there just a few boxes? Are there others?"

"Could it be that everyone is not satisfied with the quality of these ice plants? The quality of the remaining ice plants is also similar to these three plants!" The old man quickly explained.

"Then bring five more..."

The old man looked stunned, and then turned from surprise to joy, and hurriedly called the maid on the side, and went to the back warehouse to take out the ice grass.He never thought that we, who seem to be insignificant, are such big customers.In the end, we paid a total of 26 gold coins, bought eight ice grass plants, and walked away.This transaction alone has spent all the gold coins in our hands.

For an ordinary orc, 26 gold coins would have to be accumulated for at least 20 years without eating or drinking.Then, we bought a wide variety of magic materials in various material stores in the town.Finally, according to the route described by the butler Kidd, we came to a narrow street. There were some small leather workshops and shops on both sides of the street. The stench made passers-by on the street cover their noses.In the small town, we wandered around looking for the leather shop in a remote area. Kurz swore that he was familiar with this small town, but when we walked into the low-shack residential area in the west, these intricate things There are so many small roads that we can't even count them. For a while, we got lost.

We originally wanted to find a leather shop. It was a leather workshop called "Three Grizzly Bears". The owner was a very famous leather master. Ingeniously adjust the active parts of the leather armor according to each person's physical characteristics. The sewn leather armor will be very comfortable to wear without affecting one's agility at all.This master leathermaker is said to have processed the bear skins of three violent bears, so the name of the shop was changed to "Three violent bears".

From the liger robbers in the wasteland, we not only obtained exquisitely crafted weapons and 24 gold coins (most of the money used to buy ice grass), but also obtained a complete salamander leather and a A magic core.After asking Kidd about the price of leather armor, we decided to come here and make a set of tight leather armor from that piece of salamander leather. Originally, Kurtz and Qige agreed to make me a full-coverage set. The reason is that I have the most injuries, the most adventurous, and the least worrying.

However, I thought about it over and over again, and I still refused. The reason I convinced them was very simple. I have the talent of 'self-healing'. In addition, I want to be a magician. I will wear a magic robe to chase girls at the gate of Zhanzheng College in the future. How could a man wear leather armor.Then I gave this salamander skin to Katerina. This time, I came to the master leathermaker to make a set of tight leather armor for Katerina.
