Chapter 1843: Chapter 615: Black Disaster? Golden Flower? Invasion from Another World? Hmph, Spilled Soy Milk!_2
Finally, there was a double-edged battle axe housed in a luxurious dwarf-style weapon box. Just from the appearance, it looked even more cool and domineering than Bevam the Beheader.
She said:
“These are the drops from the Great Marshal Helley. You can take them back and divide them up, along with the dwarf family heirloom that Miss Doris gave me. It’s said to be something good that Lord Hether lost on the gambling table, but I have a better suggestion.
Do you want to hear it?”
“Hmm?”
The three Commanders looked at one another, and finally, Lord Qin gestured for her to go ahead.
Then the wealthy Miss Golden Peach coughed, glanced around, and softly said:
“Well, you can sell this ‘Great Marshal Armor’ to me, even though I can’t use it, but I want to send it back to the Eleville Family so my father can see firsthand the glorious honor his daughter achieved on the battlefield against the Black Disaster.
With my grandfather’s handwritten letter added, no matter how angry my father is, he couldn’t send people to forcibly bring me back.
Of course, we’re all good buddies, I wouldn’t let you suffer losses.
I consulted LiWen about the price, and I’d like to exchange this set of alien gear for ten sets of ‘Knight Captain’ level plate armor, all premium products from the Eleville family workshops, along with a full set of weapons and horse armor as a bonus for you.”
Biqi’s words made the three cunning men exchange glances, and Brother Meow asked eagerly:
“Is the plate armor as fine as the one you’re wearing?”
“Uh, definitely not.”
Biqi said a bit awkwardly, waving her hand:
“Mine is ‘General’ plate armor, and it’s customized, which you can’t afford right now. However, the Knight Captain level is pretty good; craftsmen in the workshop have tested it, wearing it turns you into a tin can, those wolf people’s weapons can’t hurt you on the battlefield.”
“Then let’s exchange!”
Lord Qin made the decision:
“This Great Marshal Armor is high-quality, but it can only equip one person, plus it’s alien-style and requires craftsman modifications for size; exchanging it for ten sets of high-grade plate armor for ten people is absolutely profitable.”
“Can Eleville family craftsmen directly accept our orders?”
Stick Brother was obviously thinking ahead, he asked:
“Does your workshop make other series besides plate armor?”
“Sure, chain mail and scale armor for soldiers, various exquisite cold weapons, not to brag! Our Eleville family’s products are the symbol of excellence throughout the Goldenrod Kingdom!”
Biqi proudly patted the towering chest armor of her own battle armor, saying:
“The generals under King Louis’s command all have their armor custom made from our family workshops. Of course, excellence means expensive… you get it, right? Although we’ve fought alongside each other against wolf people, and though I’m the only daughter of my father, I can’t give you an exorbitant discount.
But if you buy a lot, I can try to negotiate a discount for you.
For example, the Rushing River Knights Group bought 300 sets of plate armor, and LiWen gave them a very good price.”
“Then I’ll place an order for a hundred sets of the lowest level plate armor first, and then three hundred sets of chain mail!”
Stick Brother took the workshop price list Biqi handed over, studied it carefully, calculated his Gold Coin, discussed with the hefty investor Little Brother Fu, and hurried back to place an order for four hundred sets.
But he’s a savvy businessman, bargaining by saying:
“We can skip the discount, but we’re not paying for the weapons that go with the armor, Miss Biqi… cough, my brother Biqi!”
“Uh, you are quite cunning.”
Biqi frowned, saying:
“I am not good at business, you should go find LiWen to place the order, perhaps go through my grandfather’s connections? I think even if my father loves money, he would be cautious facing my grandfather’s reproach.”
“Wow, you’re such a devoted daughter.”
Brother Meow exclaimed in surprise, and then promptly added an order for ten sets of knight-level armor for his own small team. Lord Qin focused on the advantage of numbers, spending the 50,000 Gold Coin reward won from the death competition to procure a batch of chain mail for his second battle squad.
Though the second battle team’s organization was canceled after the death competition, Lord Qin decided that instead of letting newbies squander the money recklessly, he’d rather maximize the value of equipping them.
The Eleville family’s armor was indeed superior, generally allowing casual players to use it throughout their newbie stage until the silver tier without needing replacements, though one could also obtain equipment from dungeons…
But with the Black Disaster looming, there’s not much time for newbies to farm dungeons, is there?
“Meow! You take this axe.”
Stick Brother and Lord Qin discussed briefly, then handed the dominator-grade axe named “Lute’s Butcher” to Brother Meow, Stick Brother patted Brother Meow’s shoulder, saying:
“Though this thing is designated as a sacred relic of Gaia, before you get the Avalon Sacred Blade from the Giant Shark Gang, make do with it. I suspect it might trigger a mission with Lord Hether, you could share the mission then.”
“That’s… not right, is it?”
Brother Meow was clearly tempted, having gotten used to fighting with double-edged axes, he was looking for a good weapon to transition, didn’t expect the rune battle axe would come his way unsolicited, but the cunning socialite rejected:
“This is a trophy of the second battle squad; taking it as such isn’t appropriate, my brothers will gossip.”
