Give them a little funny shock

Chapter 662 Chapter 756 The Defeat Court in Another World (I)

Wang Binshu has opened his shop for more than three months, but no customer has come in. He is still in the novice stage, and can only officially unlock this first-level shop after completing the first transaction. Now he can't do many things and can't use many functions.

But Wang Binshu was not in a hurry. He had plenty of time anyway, and this Chamber of Commerce did not have many rigid rules. It was much better than those systems that would wipe out people at any time.

In addition to the merchandise, there is also a TV and a computer on the first floor. There are two consoles in front of the TV, a PBOX and an XS5 PRO. However, there are not many games and there is currently no internet.

These are the few 21st century products in the store, and of course, they are not for sale.

When there is no business, Wang Binshu will stay on the first floor to play games. Today he is playing Call of Duty 5: World at War Remastered, which is a remake of Call of Duty that was bundled with the latest game in 2027. The picture quality has been fully upgraded to support 8K resolution and 144 frames of ultra-high e-sports frame rate.

Of course, you have to be in performance mode to achieve this frame rate, and it's not really possible to have 8K resolution. The resolution in performance mode is actually 4K, but at least in this mode it can achieve a stable 144 frames.

At the same time, outside Wang Bin's bookstore,
"Sir, please enjoy your coffee."

This is a cafe located in the Byzantine border city of Ogonia, outside the Celitia Forest.

"Drinking coffee" is a new thing that appeared about sixty years ago. At first, it was only popular in those European barbarian areas, but soon became popular all over the world.

The price of a cup of coffee is not cheap - the raw material of coffee, "Acadia beans", can only grow in the New World opened up by the Franks.

Although according to the historical events of other universes, the Age of Exploration should not have begun yet, but here, the barbarians of Europe have already started the Age of Exploration in advance.

After all, this is a world with extraordinary powers, and for the strong people in these worlds, it is not a difficult thing to cross the vast ocean to the new universe.

Although many countries have introduced Acadia trees and planted them in special plantations, the results are not very good, perhaps because they are not suitable for the local climate and soil.

The Franks control about 80% of the world's coffee raw material exports, mainly because they are currently the only country that can have a cooperative relationship with the Mayan Empire in the New World.

The new world in this universe is not an uninhabited land, and the locals living there are not a slave empire still in the tribal era... Well, it is indeed a primitive slave empire.

But they are very strong, very strong, so strong that with the current strength of the Franks, it is completely impossible to defeat them on a frontal battlefield.

Even if they were moved to Europe, they would probably quickly become the top overlords of this continent.

The Mayan Empire was a brutal and primitive empire, in which extremely cruel customs of human sacrifice are still prevalent.

However, as long as you are strong enough and have resources that others do not have, you can still do business with them no matter how much others secretly criticize you.

As the only commercial partner of the Mayan Empire in the Old World, the Franks, as the only agents of Mayan products in the Old World, naturally made a fortune.

Coffee has many benefits: it can stabilize the mind, speed up the recovery of magic power, and long-term consumption can slightly increase the user's magic power reserves. It is a drink tailor-made for spellcasters.

Unlike the Ming Dynasty, in Europe, people divide extraordinary people into warriors and mages. The former are physically strong and proficient in various close combat skills. The latter abandons hand-to-hand combat, specializes in long-range combat, and is physically relatively weak. Of course, this relative weakness is relative to warriors. In fact, their physical fitness is definitely much better than that of ordinary people.

In this coffee shop in Ogonia, a cup of the lowest grade coffee costs 15 Azaria copper coins. This price is definitely not cheap. You have to know that a large glass of barley wine only costs 5 Azaria!

Generally speaking, most of the people who spend money in a coffee shop are middle-class people and spellcasters, so this place can be considered an "elegant place".

At least, that's what the spellcasters think.

"Hmm..." Corey took a deep breath of the hot steam coming out of the coffee cup and let out a long sigh of satisfaction.

"Not bad." Corey nodded and drank the coffee in the cup without leaving a drop.

Generally speaking, when drinking coffee in a cafe, you need to sip it slowly and savor it carefully, because this will make you look more elegant. However, Uncle Coridi never cares about these things - only sissy humans with weak magic power will drink it in this stupid way.

"Snapped!"

The coffee cup knocked against the milky white porcelain plate, making a crisp sound, which attracted the attention of people in the coffee shop, and many of them looked dissatisfied. However, after seeing the guest sitting where the sound came from, they all retracted their heads.

“Dang-dang-dang!”

This was the sound of a silver spoon hitting a coffee cup, and soon, a female attendant dressed in a waitress outfit passed down from the Franky Barbarians walked over.

"Do you need anything else?"

The attendant had a clear and pleasant voice, and judging from her appearance, she was also a real beauty.

However, Master Coridi did not pay attention to the servant's beauty. At this moment, he was lost in thought, rubbing the long and curled mustache on his right lip with one hand.

"Just give me two more cream cakes, a large steak, and a top-up for my coffee, and settle the bill while you're at it." After thinking for a while, Coridi said.

"Well, two cups of coffee cost . . . two refreshments cost . . . and a steak costs . . . That's twenty-five flos for a heperunga."

Corey fumbled in the pocket inside his clothes with his right hand for a while and took out a dull silver coin and a shiny gold coin.

He first looked at the gold coin in his hand. It was a Solido gold coin, an old coin from hundreds of years ago, but it still has a very high value today. It is a far more powerful currency than the current Heperon in the empire.

He put it in his left hand, examined it carefully for a while, and then put it back. He then reached into the bag with his right hand and fumbled around, and soon he found a handful of money.
