my age of magic

Chapter 787 287.
Chapter 287

The sky is clear and the blue waves are cloudless.

A group of birds in the sky flew happily around a magical airship, and a group of young nobles gathered around the ship's edge, looking at these copper-billed sparrows full of novelty.

This group of copper-billed sparrows living near the airport is not very afraid of people. They keep chasing after the airship and shuttle back and forth in the air.

A young nobleman with a piece of white bread in his hand threw a handful of bread crumbs into the sky, and the copper-billed sparrows were like streaks of black lightning flashing across the side of the airship, almost Every copperbill is a good hand at picking up these bread crumbs. They can eat these bread crumbs accurately without colliding with each other. Such a wonderful flight performance attracted the applause of a group of people on the side of the boat. .

The airships leaving the airport are lined up in a long row in a specific channel. After flying out of the airport in a regular manner, they will change their course and fly to their respective destinations. Bud told us that it is difficult to identify those airships in the airport. Whether it is carrying passengers or cargo is actually very easy, you just need to see if it is following the copper-billed finch. The copper-billed sparrows of these chicken thieves are very psychic. They will only fly behind the passenger ship and wait for the passengers on the ship. Passengers can throw handfuls of white bread into the sky, and every airship that departs from the airport never disappoints them.

Watching the airships slowly leave the Imperial Capital Airport and fly into the distance, a group of gray geese lined up above the head of the airship and flew north.

It suddenly occurred to me that these copper-billed sparrows might only stay near the airport for the rest of their lives, begging for food from the passengers in the airport.

But those gray geese flying high in the sky can fly all over the world. They may encounter more wind and waves in their lives, but there is no doubt that their lives will become more exciting.

The magic caravan went all the way south from the avenue of Airport City, and drove along the straight mountain road to Mount Majaro. When I looked back from the airships in the sky, the carriage had already gone far away, looking back at us Coming to the smaller airport city, I think that one day, it will become the most prosperous small city outside the imperial capital, just because it should be regarded as the largest material distribution center within the imperial capital area.

Airport City seems to occupy a large area, but in fact, two-thirds of the area is built as material warehouses. These warehouses are connected together in pieces. Looking down from the plank road, it is easy to regard these houses as Part of the Airport City, and then you will feel that the Airport City is a very big city. In fact, in terms of population, it is almost the same as the small town of Mas outside the city of El.

I think it's because the Greens never count vagabonds and slaves in their population numbers.

Noah was thinking along the way, what kind of subordinates should he find for himself, and then lead these subordinates to fight on some rich planes. When he mentioned this matter to Louis, Louis also responded to Noah with a cheerful face. Ya said it was time for him to go to the fighter training camp in Palestina province to pick some of the best fighters.

Louis's promise made Noah excited all the way.

"Of course it is magic black iron. Although red copper is rare, they are definitely not suitable for heavy cavalry armor. Now in the market of magic materials in the Grimm Empire, the price of magic black iron has already caught up with the price of mithril. One of the most important reasons is that It is the black iron armor of the heavy cavalry that can block the epee of the hell devil." Louis sat in the magic caravan, and when the caravan drove to the middle of the mountain, he finally answered the question I asked next to the material warehouse in Airport City.

Louis leaned comfortably on the sofa, and carefully wiped the thorium ring on his finger with a piece of silk.

The curvaceous female assistant knelt on the corn-colored fine velvet blanket, pinching Louis' legs with a focused expression. Her plump body was outlined in a leather skirt, forming a charming curve.

Bud sat in the magic caravan with downcast eyes. Of course, he knew very clearly when not to look around.

Just listen to Louis continue to say: "Of course, in terms of the conductivity of magic power, red copper is much higher than black iron, so red copper is more suitable for making some magic items, such as the main shaft of a magic caravan or the core of an airship. The wind wings of the floating device, their usual price is comparable to the price of magic black iron."

His sharp eyes were full of wisdom. When he stared at me, I even felt that my thoughts could not be hidden.

An exquisite magic rune sword hangs on the wall of the carriage behind Louis, and the magnificent magic gemstones on the scabbard exude a radiance.

He went on to say to us: "It's just that, at this time, no matter which rich plane you are in, you will be attacked by the demons from hell, because the priests in the temple of the Statue of Liberty received the oracle, Announced to Emperor Charles the Great of the Grimm Empire that the temple would not participate in this battle for planes. At this time, the best-selling medicine in the Grimm Empire is of course healing potions, but other than that, the prices of a series of war preparation materials have risen sharply Fluctuations, black iron is the main raw material for heavy cavalry armor, and the current price increase is also very rapid."

These words of Louis are basically to spread some magic knowledge to Noah and me. The first heir of the Mensa family is a person with a big heart. In his eyes, he couldn't see the slightest suspicion and infighting between those rich and noble brothers. The more he spoke casually, the more he felt that he was very easy-going.

"Compared to black iron and red copper, magic-weave spider silk is of course more precious, but this thing is made of silk spun from the spider silk collected from the spider web woven by a dark spiderman in the abyss. Usually, the number of these spider silk It is extremely rare, and this thing can only be sold in magic tailor shops. The magicweave business in the imperial capital has always been dominated by the three major tailors in the imperial capital. Our firm has never done silk thread and cloth business. There is any friction between the wealthy forces behind the three firms." Louis glanced at me casually.

He frowned slightly again, and said to me: "Although I am familiar with the Hofstadter family, the Hofstadter family's magic cloth business occupies the market in the southeastern region of the Grimm Empire. As for your The source of the goods, I guess, probably comes from the Northern Province. At present, the big cake of the magicweave spider silk business in the northern part of the Grimm Empire is still in the hands of Mrs. Alia. The widow of the Babington family is not She is easy to talk, and is known as a scheming man in the imperial capital, but if you want to do the magicweave business in the northern province, it is difficult to bypass her network."

This is the first time I heard the name of Mrs. Aliya from someone else. I didn't expect Earl Zimmerman's sister to be so famous in the imperial capital. I thought that it was the first embarrassing time in the Zimmerman manor. We met each other, and later survived a catastrophe together on the airship, and arrived at the Imperial Capital together. At that time, Mrs. Alia warmly invited me to her mansion as a guest, but I was always busy when I arrived in the Imperial Capital. Busy, but slowly forgot that invitation.

Now, hearing the name of Mrs. Alia from Louise again, I remembered that charismatic woman. Her eyes were as unforgettable as Xieyuhua.

Seeing that I was silent, Louis said again: "If you want to run the magic metal business, especially the magic red copper, you'd better go to San Carlos City, which is one of the largest producers of rune metal plates. However, speaking of San Carlos City is the territory of the Babington family, if you want to do magic red copper business, it is equally difficult for you to bypass that lady."

I can hear from Louis that he is not willing to touch the two businesses of magic red copper and magic spider silk, but he does not reject magic black iron.

So I said to him: "So, as a material for the equivalent exchange of grain, I can provide you with some black iron, Louis, are you interested?"

Louis patted the female assistant on the shoulder, indicating that she could sit beside him, then raised his haughty chin and said, "Of course!"

The female assistant leaned against Louis, as docile as a Persian cat.

Louis raised his slightly pale face, and said to Bud, "Bud, calculate the value of those grains according to the market price."

Then he said to me: "Ji Jia, how many hemostatic bandages can you give me, and the remaining surplus can be converted into black iron for me. Of course, for Emerald Bay Trading Company, the more black iron, the better."

Bud has always been very careful in front of Louis. Hearing Louis' orders, he immediately stood up and said, "Obey, master."

Without even thinking about it, he opened his mouth and said: "According to the price in the business, the price of finely ground wheat flour is seven copper coins per kilogram. The finely ground wheat flour in the warehouse is packed in a bag of 420 kilograms. Wheat flour converted into gold coins should be [-] gold coins. As for those miscellaneous grains, the price per kilogram is five copper coins, and [-] bags of miscellaneous grains converted into gold coins should be five hundred gold coins, adding up to a total of nine hundred and twenty gold coins. I don’t know how many hemostatic bandages the magician Jijia can take out?”

I carefully counted some hemostatic bandage stocks in the underground warehouse. Because the dwarf Bernd led the orc warriors to fight against the goblin tribes in the surrounding area, I asked the old Zewang to take the orc girls in the village to make a lot of hemostatic bandages.

Since the hemostatic grass produced in Xinliu Valley could not be sold at that time, a large amount of hemostatic grass was hoarded in the orc village. Old Zewang led people to use the ointment ground from these hemostatic grass, and smeared it on linen to make rolls. The hemostatic scroll, if it wasn't for the envoy of the Prince of Wales asking Qige for help a few days ago, I'm afraid I still don't know that there are so many boxes of hemostatic bandages in the underground warehouse.

I said: "I still have ten large iron and wooden boxes full of hemostatic bandages. Each magic sealing box contains 520 rolls of hemostatic bandages, a total of [-] rolls of hemostatic bandages. Of course, these hemostatic bandages were sold in Egypt before. The price in Ercheng is a bundle of six silver coins. Even if the price rises now, it should not exceed twenty silver coins, so the value of these hemostatic bandages should be around four hundred gold coins, so if this is the case, I still need to add the value Magic black iron for [-] gold coins, am I right? Mr. Bard."

Louis looked at me in astonishment. He probably never thought that I could produce thousands of magic scrolls at once. For him, these hemostatic bandages were enough to maintain an army in a battle.

Bud noticed Louis' excited eyes, and immediately added: "Master Ji Jia, the price of the hemostatic bandage you offered is [-]% lower than the current market price."

Being able to become the regional director of the Emerald Bay Trading Company, Bud naturally knows the prices of various commodities very clearly, but I don't understand why a shrewd businessman like him doesn't know how to lower the price, but instead raises the price of the hemostatic bandage .

At this time, I noticed that there was some approval in Louis's eyes.

He immediately understood that the person Bud cared about the most was Louis, and it didn't matter whether he lost or gained in business, as long as he could gain the appreciation of Louis, Bud would gain a firm foothold in the Emerald Bay Trading Company.

I said to Louis: "No matter how much the magic herbal medicine fluctuates in the market, these hemostatic bandages are only worth so much. No matter how much the price of elementary magic herbs like 'hemostatic herb' increases, after all, they are some extremely common elementary magic herbs." Magic herbs, I don’t think it will take too long. The first batch of mid-level magic herbs from Buenos, the royal city of the elf world, will arrive in the imperial capital. By then, those golden thorn grass and living roots will be able to make mid-level healing potions. , it will completely fill the Grimm Empire healing potion market, and no one will take a second look at those secondary life potions, and by then, the value of the hemostatic bandage will fall back to the previous price."

Louis looked up at me suspiciously, and said, "How do you know about the secrets of transporting magic herbs from the elf world?"

Seeing the questioning look in Louis' eyes, I knew he was curious about where I got so many resources, and how could I know such a secret that only the upper-class nobles could know. I couldn't explain the source of those hemostatic bandages, so I had to explain to Louis. Said: "I work part-time in the Imperial Academy of Magic, and I heard the news from there."

The news came from Qige. Last time, Qige made a fuss about the magic herb warehouse in the research institute, asking where the junior magic herb belonged to him. A promise to Qige.

After all, Louis held back and did not continue to ask questions.

Then I started discussing the trade of the magic black iron. I didn’t hide the source of the magic black iron. I just said that I got the spoils from hunting spider warriors on the Hierro plane. At this time, Louis suddenly realized that he knew what I had. The magical black iron and magic-weave spider silk came from the plane of Hierro. Noah was very surprised that I got these trophies, and he kept asking me for specific details.
