The Defeated Dragon

“Black pearls can already be mass-produced, you mean, like sapphire family pearls, it can constantly produce white pearls? ”

Reeves was astonished.

Loria, who was sitting next to him, took out a few black pearls that were smaller than table tennis playing with Lester: "Livius, you gave me a black pearl protective pendant, that's the kind of black pearl you made. And that giant black pearl, is it the same variety? ”

Livius nodded: "That's right, Loria. ”

Lester had a slight smile on his face: "I gave you a wedding gift, a black pearl that could forcefully disperse the magic of the wind properties in the surrounding area of 200 to 300 meters, and a gift from Livius, and these black pearls, all of the same breed, originated from the Sea Monster Blackthorn. ”

Levi couldn't help complaining: "But when you sold me the black pearl, you said that it couldn't be mass produced, it was a rare item! ”

“It was a rare thing at the time, but after my constant exploration of the ocean, I finally discovered an area where I lived in the dark, and the black pearl became the specialty of my territory. ”

“Now sell me the black pearl, you won't still be at the original price, will you? ”

“Brother, those two black pearls were expensive in the beginning, and it is true that they are rarely expensive, but you cannot deny that their own value is very expensive. Moreover, even if the blackheads become territorial specialties, production is very limited, and they remain scarce. ”

“How much are you going to bid? ”

“I'm not actually going to sell it to you, and of course, you're willing to buy it, so long as the price is right, I can make the right offer.” Lister whispered about the business and went on to say, "Actually, I'm going to sell the black pearl to Loria, and I don't know if you're interested. ”

“Agent sales?” Loria's eyes shine.

Nobles despise businessmen but are not ashamed to do business.

“Yes, according to the black pearls of different sizes, set different prices, I can give you a certain amount of credit for Loria. For example, this black pearl in your hand, I set the price of 50 gold coins, and you sell it on Golden Island, and I give you 10 points, or five gold coins. ”

Loria moved.

But she looked at Reeves.

Livius touched his chin: “Black pearls are really good, more valuable than white pearls, and this business can be done. But the score of ten points is too low, at least twenty points. ”

“Twenty points? Why don't you go rob it!” Lister shouted, “brother, sister-in-law, black pearls are pearls produced by the sea monster Black Pearl, I hunt them at a great price, even paying the fisherman's life, they look like black pearls, they are actually bloodstained pearls! ”

Making up stories, Lester was never empty.

Strongly depict the difficulties in fishing for black pearls and describe yourself as risking fighting the sea monsters for life and death because of poverty and madness, to save black pearls for some gold coins.

Perhaps.

His performance was exaggerated, and Livius was not moved: “The black pearl is clearly not an expensive item for small aristocrats to consume, and what they need is a channel to sell it to those big aristocrats. Lester, you want us to come up with a channel to do business, you can't lose 20 points. ”

Lester also had a toothache. He didn't seem to bleed a bit. Business was out of order.

But he soon came up with a new way to stop the loss: “I priced the black pearl size and specifications dead, and the draw was fixed at ten points, but... if you can sell a higher price, then the higher price is all your gain! ”

“Seriously? ”

“Of course.”

“Okay!” Levi and Loria looked at each other and slapped the board immediately, "How many black pearls do you have, we've got it all covered, the business is troublesome and requires Loria to use a lot of relationships. But I should be able to earn a lot of hard work in the short term to make up for my wear and tear when I get married. ”

“I don't collect many black pearls, so I have to carefully check the satisfactory price for each one. And then you have to pay me a gold coin in advance as a deposit, and I'm seriously short of money to build my territory. ”

“There's not much liquidity left in the castle, and I can probably move it together under 3,000 gold coins.” Reeves said.

Loria suddenly intervened: "Reeves, I also have some private dowries that can raise about 5,000 gold coins. ”

“3,000 plus 5,000, 8,000 gold coins in total, OK, enough deposits! ”

……

The biggest black pearls Lester has to offer are just slightly larger than the sea bowl, the others are small black pearls.

You can make large black pearls of the Wind God Pearl, all of which will be preserved for future use by yourself.

Mr. and Mrs. Reeves had a lot of nerve.

They decided that black pearls could definitely be sold at a high price, so they ate all of Lester's stock of black pearls at once.

The price of these black pearls ranges from the highest 1,500 gold coins to the smallest 50 gold coins, for a total conversion price of 24,550 gold coins. Eighty thousand gold coins will be paid in advance as deposit, followed by seventeen thousand five hundred and fifty gold coins, to be paid when the black pearls are sold out.

“Pleasure working with you, Lester. ”

“Pleasure working with you, Reeves, Loria. ”

After the count was completed, all three were satisfied - Lester was satisfied that the funds at hand were finally generous enough not to be embarrassed enough to need to borrow money.

As for how much the Black Pearl Leaves could earn if they went backwards, that's what they're capable of. He sells the price he wants, how much other people can earn through channels, it has nothing to do with him, let alone jealousy and regret. He has a good attitude in this regard.

After all, black pearls are not a one-time business.

Big deal. The next batch is enough, then the price increases.

Sea demon Archer often goes around Pearl Lake to collect some black pearls. She is already very skilled in magic and can pick out black pearls directly while some black shells open. Even killings are not needed, and sustainable development is basically achieved, with continuous access to black pearls.

Absolutely.

All that can be collected now are small black pearls, and large black beads do not live in Pearl Lake.

Lester used these smallest black pearls to skewer a black pearl necklace as a gift to his sister Livera in advance. At the same time, 800 gold coins owed to Levera, and 2,000 gold coins owed to Mrs. Penelope, all settled - he didn't like the feeling of owed money.

Much of the remaining money is invested in the purchase of food and production materials.

With the help of the Tulip family's merchants and the Beer Island merchants, large quantities of cereal grain such as wheat, barley, poppy rice and beans are purchased from the outer islands and stored in warehouses on Black Horse Island.

Time passed by like this.

Soon after, in October 152, the Count returned from Blue Dragon Island with this year's pioneering decree - the Iron Ridge and Eagle kingdoms, a pair of feudal kingdoms - which, after all, continue their yearly tradition of fighting each other after the end of the autumn to seize each other's accumulated resources.
