Chapter 492: Special Stones

After exiting the arena, Charles happened to receive news from the Dragonborn Paladin Barrasa and invited him to meet at the Elf Hotel.

Charles returned to the hotel where he checked in and saw Barrasa and "Ye Yu Lingfeng" sitting in the lobby and waved to him.

The levels of Barrasa and "Ye Yu Lingfeng" have been upgraded to lv15, and their efficiency is a bit fast. After Shahr sat down, he asked in a voice: "How is it?"

In fact, when he just returned to Cormanso, Charles sent a letter to Barrasa asking him to help track down the traces of a desert merchant group.

Barrasa is now also a formal member of Nodashir. He also knows about the construction of the territory, so he should do his part.

"Well, as you said, it was a large merchant group with a size of more than 200 people. It entered Cormanso from the desert through the 'Yuehai Highway', and the one in charge of the merchant group was a powerful female sorcerer. These characteristics are obvious and it is not difficult to find clues." Barrasa nodded and handed out a piece of information full of text, saying: "This is the information document I compiled from all parties and compiled. The merchant group finally settled in the city on the banks of the Yuehai, and purchased a large number of supplies, and the list was attached to it."

"They stayed in the city for nearly a month and sold the goods they brought. They are preparing to withdraw the camp and return in the past two days."

"Okay!" Shire felt sure when he saw this information.

He had no intersection with the Woking Church, so he did not know any business giants. The only brothers Ipgil who knew were far away in the deep water city, but far away water could not quench the near thirst.

Therefore, Charles remembered the desert business trip he had encountered.

The businesswoman named Via made him remember it deeply. After all, the noble lady Keshi Carroll was almost attacked and killed by an evil beast magician. Fortunately, the businesswoman herself was also a hero magician, which prevented the tragedy from happening.

Since the desert business trip is about to set off, Charles only needs to wait in the town of Maple Forest where they must pass.

However, the eggs cannot be all in one basket. Accompanied by Barrasa and the "Night Rain Listening to the Wind", Charles visited the Trade Association in Miszorno New City.

"What, you need a lot of stone?"

When the receptionist heard about Charles's purpose, his face suddenly became strange. This was a middle-aged businessman with a goatee, wearing a silk brocade robes, and a friendly smile.

There are trade guilds in all major cities. Some places have trade guilds specialize in a small group of closely related industries, while most trade guilds are comprehensive, facing the entire market, and provide places for merchant members to meet and discuss business.

Therefore, although the middle-aged merchant saw the identity of the Saint Origin of the Charles and the other two, he did not neglect.

Specializing in visiting the guild of trade, it is very likely to be a big business.

"Yes, stone, and it is very strong stone, refractory and cold-resistant. Harder than metal." Charles nodded.

The middle-aged businessman narrowed his eyes slightly and obviously guessed Charles' intention to buy stone. In addition to building military fortresses or cities, other ordinary residential houses do not use special stone.

But the merchant only sells it and never cares about what customers do with goods. The middle-aged merchant smiled behind the reception desk and said, "It just so happened that there is a big businessman specializing in stone business in our Miszorno's Trade Association. Our guild can help you contact him and meet him. Please leave your contact address and 100 gold coin intermediary fee. If the business is negotiated, we will also draw 1% from the transaction volume."

After Shahr left the address of the Elf Hotel and settled the fee, he walked out of the high-rise building of the Chamber of Commerce with Barrasa and Ye Yutingfeng.

Walking on the street full of forest style, "Listen to the Wind at Night" held in a long time, then said: "Char, why should you look far away from the stones for building the city? Isn't it okay to use local materials?"

Stopped. Charles was stunned, then slapped his head and said, "You are talking about it, this is the second method. The territory I designated is close to the Storm Horn Mountains and the Sunset Mountains. You don't have to worry about not being able to find suitable stone resources."

"But the big stone merchant still wants to meet him." Charles pondered slightly, "and if you use local materials and dig stones, artificial means, transportation, etc., you have to find a way for yourself."

As the evening approaches, the sunset falls on the steeply-topped guild building.

After receiving the notice from the Commerce Guild, Charles visited here for the second time today, but his companions around him became two little goddesses.

The middle-aged businessman behind the counter saw Charles and smiled, "Please go to Room 201 on the second floor, that big businessman is already waiting for you."

As he went up the stairs, Charles looked at Shia and Laila who were following him and told him seriously: "When I meet with that businessman later, don't interrupt or make trouble!"

Leila nodded first. At first, Shia looked like she was smiling and indifferent. After being given a thunderous look by Charles, she immediately covered her head and cried and stared at Charles fiercely, trying to go angry but fear something.

Standing in front of the talk room with the 201 door sign hanging, Charles politely knocked on the door, and a deep male voice came from inside: "Come in."

Charles brought Shia and Leila into the room. The layout inside was simple and elegant. A middle-aged bald businessman, sitting on a chair by the window, was rubbing his shoulders and back, lowering his eyebrows and pleasing to his eyes.

"You are the Holy Actor who wants to buy special stones?"

The middle-aged businessman looked at Charles standing at the door with a long look, without any intention of getting up to greet him, his eyes were filled with disdain and indifference, as if he was dissatisfied with the Commerce Guild's arrangement to meet and have a meeting with a Saint.

"Yes." Charles pursed his lips. After discovering that the other party's attitude was not good, his face and tone became slightly cold. There was no need to put his warm face on his cold butt.

"How much do you need?" The middle-aged businessman pushed away the maid in the trouble and said in a deep voice: "That is a hard granite blast produced in the volcanic area, used to build forts. Ordinary spells and artillery cannot cause damage to the walls!"

"The more, the better." Charles did not say how much it was. In the early stage, the amount of stone needed to build a small city on the territory was quite large, and building a city wall was not enough. Various military facilities, such as urns, lord's mansions, defensive forts, also required very solid materials.

"I have three large quarries in the Mokou Mountains, with 3,000 slaves. Each quarry can produce a large amount of stone every day, which can fully meet your requirements."

The middle-aged businessman laughed and stretched out a finger and gestured: "10 silver coins and one piece of stone, each piece is 10 feet in size. This price does not include transportation costs. If you need my chamber of commerce to transport it, then you have to add 5 more silver coins."

"Sia, Laila, go!"

However, Charles's face turned cold and pulled the two little goddesses and left without looking back.

A piece of ten-foot piece of stone without any processing actually costs 10 silver coins, which is definitely a deliberate price increase that has increased by at least twice the price. Moreover, Charles has inquired that merchants elsewhere often make a car-by-car calculation.

This bald businessman sold the price one by one, which was simply a bad price to bully people. (To be continued.)
