Abe the Wizard

Chapter 4: Leiburg Town

The town of Libourg was called the town of Libourg because there was an ancient castle called Libourg, and as more and more people came here, a house was erected around Libourg, slowly forming what is now the town of Libourg, where the mayor, Baron Rex, now lives.

By the time we got to Fort Lee, the sun was almost noon, and Abel and Norman discussed it, and went to church and spent 10 silver coins asking a priest to heal Norman's leg wounds with "healing minor injuries”.

Out of the church, looking at the church of Gao Da Sumu, Abe couldn't help but shake his head, or the church made money. It was just a low-level magic, and he received ten silver coins. Ten silver coins is enough for an average family to eat for a month, but for a priest, it's a hand-wave thing.

Then, under Norman's guidance, he came to the store where Zhendong acquired leather goods. When he saw Shadow Leopard, the owner of the store was surprised. The Shadow Leopard was completely complete except for a wound on his back, plus a high-value Shadow Leopard, and the owner quickly bought out ten gold coins.

Norman was satisfied with the price, Abel was not very knowledgeable, and when he saw Norman nod, he agreed to the deal.

These ten gold coins, plus one that Zach gave him, and the five gold coins that he saved, together had sixteen gold coins, and the purchasing power of the gold coins here was still very strong, which made Abel feel like he always had some money.

This trip to Fort Lee had a purpose, and Abel asked Norman to buy the goods himself, and he didn't want anyone to know what he was buying next.

Coming to the centre of town, the Libourg Merchants' sign is the cut of the ancient castle of Libourg, the door is huge, it is almost noon, there are not many people inside.

Abel came to the counter and looked at the merchandise inside, and there were all kinds of daily necessities, and jewelry, and clothes, and so on, like a big grocery store.

“Are you Young Master Abel?” A chubby middle-aged man walked out of the counter with a smile on his face and presented a noble gift to Abel.

Although the other party's aristocratic etiquette is substandard and the use of flowers here is inappropriate, Abel politely returned a courtesy, knowing that it is difficult for ordinary people to learn aristocratic etiquette, and this fat middle-aged man can use aristocratic etiquette well.

“Yes, you know me? ”

“I'm Tim, the owner of this shop, and I know your brother, Young Master Zach, because your corner is marked with the Thorn Shield by the Knight of Bennett, so I'll take the liberty of calling you.” Tim gave another weird gift.

Thorn Shield is the crest of the Bennett family, becoming a qualified nobleman, remembering that as many noble crests as possible are a must pass, and in Abel's memory, Abel has embraced literature, music, aristocratic etiquette, and crest as a very important subject since childhood.

“Mr. Tim, do you have a separate gem here? ”

For Abel to politely call himself Sir, this makes Tim happy. Although the young knight's second son in front of him is not a nobleman, his identity is very noble. For noble people to give him respect, this makes Tim feel much better and hastily replies: "Yes, the Libourg Chamber of Commerce can provide you with all kinds of gems, Master Abel. ”

Tim told me to open a big box in the counter with rows of gems lined up in it. These gems are tiny. In such a small place, few people can afford them, and the bigger gems are useful and will not show up in such a store.

Abel picked six rubies of the same color, about the same size, from the box and asked, "Mr. Tim, how many gold coins are there? ”

“Just give me six gold coins, Young Master Abel. ”

There was no excessive price to pay, and Abel knew whether this kind of shop run by the town's merchants would not bid indiscriminately on his own people, or on a knight's family, so he took six gold coins out of his arms and gave them to Tim.

Tim picked up the coin with his hands, found a cloth bag to help Abel put six rubies in, and respectfully walked Abel out of the store.

Leaving Leiburg, Abel found a deserted alley, took three rubies out of the bag, docked a finger, put them in the Heradic square, and once again meditated on a synthetic formula, three of the same gems combined into a high-grade gem, and if it was true, three gems should disappear after he clicked the synthetic button himself, and what he got was a big rubie.

Pressing the mood, fingers gently on the synthetic button below the twelve lattices in front of the eyes, three rubies emitted a white light disappearing, while a large circle of rubies appeared in the top lattice of the Heradic block, the rubies were removed from the Heradic block, and placed in the sun. It was a beautiful gem, each side perfectly reflected the glow of the sun, emitting a pure glow, a crystalline red color, flashing in the light of the sun.

This ruby is superior in size and quality to the three rubies just now, and although he doesn't know what it's worth, Abel believes it's definitely worth well over three gold coins.

Then I synthesized the second rubies, put two rubies in a cloth bag, think about where to sell them, definitely can't go to the Libourg store, think about it, I just bought six rubies from there, and then I went there to sell two better rubies, fool think about it and know there is a problem.

After a short walk down the town street, I saw an auction house in front of me, the Edmund auction house, looking at that sign, and Abel found information about it in his memory. The Edmund auction house is the largest auction house in the Principality. It operates in essentially every town in the Principality of Kamei. Its 500 year history is the reputation guarantee of the Edmund auction house. Every year, the Edmund auction house, where the country is located, auctions some rarities, attracting the noble millionaires of the entire Principality of Kamei and the surrounding Principality.

“Edmund Auction House welcomes you, how can I help you?” A standard goose face woman in a gorgeous gift dress made of silk from the East with long, blond hair, bright and clear eyes, no impurities, white skin blown to pieces, no flaws, very soft and beautiful voice and a midday greeting to Abel.

“Beautiful lady, I want someone to identify the gem.” A lunch salute was also offered, Abe replied.

From this etiquette, you can see the strength of the Edmund auction house, using the right etiquette at the right time, which is the standard for nobility, and the people who are proficient in using this etiquette have at least studied the nobility etiquette courses, which are not something you can learn if you want to, without the corresponding identities, and nobody will teach you this.

“You can call me Yvette, young and handsome sir. I'm in charge here. Let's go upstairs and talk.” Evette knew Abel was an identified person when she saw him coming in, so she didn't invite anyone else to the reception, she did it herself.

In the meeting room on the second floor, two servants sat down and served two cups of coffee. Albert had been walking for half a day to pick up the coffee and sipped it gently. Very good coffee. Although he could not tell where it was made, he knew the coffee was good and bad. The family was not economical and had not had such good coffee for a long time.

Evette looked at the young man in front of her, arguably a boy, and the respect accorded to the noble was not due to his age, which the noblemen often said was the service purpose of the auction house.

Abel took a cloth bag out of his arms and took a ruby out of it and handed it to Yvette, asking, "Mrs. Yvette, look at the value of this gem. ”

Taking over the stone, Evette looked closely at the inside of the stone, and after a few minutes she looked up and said with some excitement, "Perfect cut, perfect structure, no flaws, light through, did you do this ruby? I'll give you a maximum price of 300 gold coins. ”
