Arcane Universe

The young clerk was taken aback for a moment, then showed a surprised expression and said: “Your Excellency, please follow me.”

If this customer really wants to buy Grandmaster For Rank’s large-scale engineering structure, it is definitely not a small business.

Feng Chou followed the clerks to the third floor of the building and was invited into an office.

He was received by an intermediate mage.

The price of the engineering construct is basically fixed, there is no room for bargaining, and because the purchase is a non-battle-type construct, no special license is required, so the two parties quickly settled the business .

Next, the middle-level mage found an accountant and took Feng Chou to the warehouse of the alchemy trading company behind the building.

Compared with the luxurious palace-like building in front, the warehouse behind the building is like an old castle, simple and strong.

The walls of the warehouse all around stand high. There are not only fixed guards at the top of the wall, but also a contingent of guards patrolling. The warehouse is a huge and solid square stone building with thick walls. Like a city wall, there are obvious magical fluctuations on the wall.

Feng Chou saw the construct he wanted to buy in a closed warehouse.

After a simple inspection, Feng Chou paid a draft of 300,000 kronor as a deposit to the other’s accountant, and got the start-up scroll of this structure.

These money orders were only exchanged with gold coins by Feng Chou.

The activation process of the construct is actually the process of recognizing the Master. Once the construct is activated, it will be very troublesome to trade again.

After the start-up was successful and it was confirmed that the structure was operating correctly, Feng Chou paid 2.2 million for the balance, controlled the space ring on his hand, opened the space door leading to its internal space, and commanded the structure to squat. Walked in.

This space ring was originally given to him by the high elf Princess when they sent him magic materials. There is a cube space of 5 meters by 5 meters by 5 meters in the ring. The structure of more than six meters high needs to be squatted to enter. Fortunately, the structure will not feel hard.

The transaction was completed and Feng Chou left the alchemy trading company.

Behind an alchemy trading company of this size, there must be a Legendary mage or a mage organization to support it.

But there are at least dozens of alchemy trading companies of this size in Owendale!

This is the foundation of Owendell.

It took Feng Chou three days to purchase a full ten Grandmaster Rank constructs in Owendale, and then they teleported out of the city.

Feng Chou was directly transported from Owendale City to a remote abandoned factory building in Bao Feng City.

After contacting Chapman, Feng Chou changed the overalls and canvas jackets often worn by lower-level workers, left the abandoned factory, walked a few blocks, and took the public carriage to the wharf area. .

According to Chapman’s SMS, Feng Chou quickly saw the development of the Knight on a busy pier.

He left the dock, walked into an unmanned alley, and directly boarded the development Knight with teleportation.

Glice, Joel, Natasha, Chapman, Owen and waiting for him in the captain’s room.

After meeting, Feng Chou asked whether the ship entered the port and whether it went smoothly, and how the goods were sold.

Chapman told Feng Chou that they have contacted several local trading companies and plan to divide the cargo on board into several parts and sell them to several companies to avoid a sensation.

Develop the Knight’s tens of thousands of intermediate magic equipment. If they are sold in a centralized manner, it will be an amazing value of hundreds of millions of kronor!

Generally speaking, a large-scale armed merchant ship from Tyron, bringing thousands of magic items, among which there can be thousands of intermediate items, which is already an incredible business. These ships mainly carry , Or some ordinary commodities produced by alchemy technology.

For example, high-quality steel produced with alchemical equipment, sophisticated steel essence weapon armor, high-quality fabric produced with alchemical equipment, alchemical gunpowder, alchemical vinyl, advanced dyes, exquisite production of alchemical technology Porcelain, silk from central Owendale, coffee and sugar from the south, tea from the south and so on. The real magic item, in terms of volume and weight, only occupies a small part.

Although the more alchemical products transported, the higher the profit, but the entire ship transports alchemical products, which will require a huge amount of capital.

Generally speaking, a large merchant ship, transported goods worth 10 to 20 million, and eventually sold for 30 to 50 million, is already a very successful big business.

Adding the return journey, there will be nearly three times the profit after this trip, which makes ordinary merchants jealous. It is no wonder that many nobles also participate in maritime trade when selling their ancestral properties.

However, as more and more funds flowed into maritime trade in recent years, the profits of east-west coastline trade have begun to decline year by year.

Get back to the subject, to develop the tens of thousands of mid-level alchemical products on the Knight, and it will be less noticeable if it is split and sold to at least three companies.

After Chapman reported on the commodity trading situation, Natasha told Feng Chou that just 2nd day after they arrived in Hong Kong, a high-ranking thief dived onto the ship and was left by Feng Chou. Her investigative ring found that after they had captured the thief, he was still locked in a black steel cage on the lower level.

The so-called reconnaissance ring is actually a high-tech idea product. There is a miniature laser projection device on the ring, which can use the laser projection to develop the three-dimensional structure of the Knight.

This ring is connected to the scanner installed on the ship by Feng Chou. Any abnormal situation found by the scanner can be alarmed by the ring, and the hologram of the development of the Knight can be projected out, and then the problem will be pointed out. Mark it out.

After Natasha’s report, Joel opened the mouth and said: “From what I heard in the bar some time ago, this Rogue is 80% of the eyeliner of pirates. The task is generally to find out the details of the docking cargo ship and choose the target of hunting. Merchant ships like ours who have not participated in the fleet and entered the port alone are the key targets of this type of pirate eyeliner.”

Feng Chou Nodded, he knew that Joel was right. These things are in the memory of Captain Locke, the vampire.

He thought for a while, and said: “Tell me about your process of arresting Rogue.”

After listening to Natasha’s description, Feng Chou said: “Since this Rogue already knows Not only do we have a Grandmaster Rank dragonborn powerhouse on board, but there is also a skeletal golem guard, so you can send this Rogue to the marina police station today.”

Seeing that everyone didn’t understand what he meant, Feng Chou explained: “Our purpose is not to destroy the pirates or kill the pirate’s eyeliner. Our purpose is to smoothly drive the ship where we want to go. Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether this high-level Rogue kills or not, it’s important. It is to let the pirates know that we’exploit the Knight’ not to be trifled with. With the ability of the Port Police Station, a high-level Rogue will definitely not be able to be detained. After this Rogue escapes, he will definitely report his experience to the pirate eyeliner. In this way, the pirates will also know the strength of our development of the Knight, and we will naturally have less trouble, understand?”

After explaining, Feng Chou left to develop the Knight. , But he did not leave Bao Feng City at all.

Golden Rose is one of the most famous high-end hotels in Bao Feng City. This hotel is located at the intersection of Binhai Avenue and Binjiang Avenue in Bao Feng City. The west square of the hotel faces the sea and the south The square is facing the entrance of the Xingchen River.

Binhai Avenue connects almost all the seaports in Bao Feng City, while Binjiang Avenue connects the river ports along the north bank of the Xingchen River.

In the north of the gold rose is the import trading market of Bao Feng City. The local trading company of Bao Feng City will put the goods in this trading market for trading and selling after they take the goods from the ocean merchant ship. To businessmen across the country.

To the east of the gold rose is the Bao Feng City mineral trading market.

Along the Star River, all kinds of rough minerals and gemstones gathered from all over the country in the Sutton Empire will eventually be sent to this trading market, and some large exporters will buy goods here , Hoarded at the harbour, waiting to be sold to the ocean-going merchant ship going south.

In addition to the two trading markets, the gold-inlaid rose is not far from the Bao Feng City headquarters of Woking Bank. You can see it by walking 300 meters east along Binjiang Avenue.

The people who stay at the Golden Rose Hotel are either the big merchants of their own country, or the captain and owner of the ocean-going merchant ship.

The gold-inlaid rose is a 5-Layer corner building. The corner of the building is designed in an arc shape. The entrance and lobby of the hotel are located at the corner of the arc.

The first floor of the corner area of ​​the building is the hotel lobby, the second floor is the hotel restaurant, the third floor is the high-end pub, the 4-Layer banquet hall, and the 5-Layer is long-term leased to the Bao Feng City Trade Club .

This gold rose hotel is not the highest grade Feng Chou has ever seen, but its scale is definitely the largest Feng Chou has ever seen. The entire hotel has thousands of rooms.

Feng Chou stayed in the Golden Rose Hotel in the name of a foreign businessman.

In order to make his identity as a foreign merchant more like that, Feng Chou used Transfiguration to transform several alien slaves he bought on Brook Island into human appearances, and brought them with them. By your side, act as a guard.

He asked for a luxury suite on the fifth floor of the hotel. This luxury suite not only has a living room, living room, study, bedroom and other functional rooms, but even two dedicated servant rooms.

After settling in the hotel, Feng Chou took Guderian and Rommel and left the tavern.

Guderian and Rommel are the names Feng Chou gave to two male Drow elves slaves. Their original names are very different from the human pronunciation. And the name of the wizard.

So, Feng Chou gave them some new names that he could easily remember.

Out of the tavern, Feng Chou called for the rental carriage, went to a real estate company that operated warehouse rentals, and rented a whole warehouse.

After renting the warehouse, Feng Chou returned to the Golden Rose Hotel and went straight to the tavern on the third floor.

Feng Chou went to the tavern not to drink. As a mage, he basically doesn’t drink, but to find a broker.

In order to protect the interests of domestic merchants, the Sutton Empire stipulates that foreign merchants cannot directly buy goods from the domestic market, and must go through Sutton traders with aptitude.

Feng Chou does not intend to use the name of Sterling Baron again this time, but in the name of a foreign businessman, naturally, he does not have the right to buy things directly in the market.

However, these regulations do not stump savvy businessmen, so some transaction brokers who specialize in helping foreign businessmen buy and sell things came into being.

The last time Feng Chou came to Bao Feng City big purchases, he was staying at Rose Gold. At that time, he considered that he might not be able to use the name of Sterling Baron again when he came next time. So, He paid special attention to these brokers at the time.

The decoration style of the pub on the third floor inlaid with gold roses follows the usual gold and jade in glorious splendor style of this hotel. The interior environment is very spacious, with tall floor-to-ceiling windows and gorgeous magic lights on the roof. The light is quite bright, here not only provides fine wine, but also high-end restaurants and coffee.

Feng Chou walked into the tavern with two attendants, waved back to the bartender who was approaching, walked into the middle of the tavern, looked around, and quickly found the target.

That was a twenty-seven-year-old young gentleman. He was wearing a blue tuxedo. He was playing poker with three gentlemen in a large deck, with one in front of them. Stack of gold Silver Coin.

Feng Chou went straight to the deck, reached out and raised his hat, and said: “Mr. Burton, I have a business here, maybe you will be interested.”

Young The gentleman raised his eyes and gave Feng Chou a glance. While staring at the cards in his hand, he said: “You can have a drink first, and wait until I finish playing this card.”

Feng Chou shrugged and walked away. I went to the deck next to me and sat down, called the waiter, and ordered a cup of coffee.

Ten minutes later, the young gentleman finally finished playing the cards in his hand, took off the top hat on the coat hook beside him, picked up the civilization stick leaning on the table, got up and came to the deck of Feng Chou opposite.

He put the staff of civilization on the table, took off his hat and placed it on the staff, watched Feng Chou spread his hands, and said, “Sir, let’s talk about your business, I hope you’re not wasting My time.”

This Mr. Burton is the nephew of the Marquis McAdam, but it is rumored that he is actually the illegal child of the Marquis.

Marquis McAdam is a court marquis.

The so-called court marquis is a lifelong nobleman who has the title of marquis, but has no actual territory.

Although the court nobles are not regarded by the real leaders, the Marquis McAdam has considerable authority. He is the interior minister trusted by the contemporary emperor Francois VI of the Sutton Empire.

It’s not that anyone is capable of being a broker. This kind of behavior is undoubtedly digging into the corner of the country’s businessmen. If there is not enough power, it will be torn to pieces by the country’s businessmen every minute.

Among the many brokers, Burton with the Marquis McAdam standing behind is undoubtedly the strongest one.

For the broker’s rules, Feng Chou had long understood and he handed a list of goods to the other party.

Burton casually picked up the list, but after looking at it twice, his attitude suddenly became serious.
