Robb, I said, can you please stop being in a daze and answer the question I asked you! How much is this armor worth?
Robb still doesn't know the pricing system of this world. After all, prices vary between the different game servers, let alone different worlds.
Hey? As soon as the merchant woke up, he quickly looked up, sat up with his back straight, and said solemnly, "Sorry, Mr. Robb, I was fascinated by it by accident because the workmanship of this flying dragon leather armor is so excellent... Oh, I swear I've never seen such exquisite craftsmanship in my life. This is at least the work of a master-level leather maker.
Robb thought, This merchant is a little discerning, but after all, he is still a small businessman who is still playing around. I am afraid he has not seen much of the world. A grandmaster obviously made this, but he says it is "at least the master level." that is to say, his appraisal ability only works till the master level, but he can't understand the excellent equipment above it.
Robb knocked on the table. "You're half right, but not accurate enough." This armor is indeed above the master level, but to be exact, it is made by a 'Grandmaster leather craftsman.' "
"Grand. Grand. Grandmaster? " The merchant was so frightened that his chin almost fell unto the table. There were only two or three grandmaster leather makers on the entire continent. It was rare to see that this priest named Robb threw one out, my God.
Robb said, "Well, talking about it now, how much can it sell?"
The merchant wiped the sweat forming on his forehead and whispered, "Although a Grandmaster leather maker made it, its material is, after all, the skin of a double-legged flying dragon. As you know, double-legged flying dragon skin is not considered a high-class material. Although it is superior to wild boar and lizard skin, it is much inferior to a real dragon, behemoth, leopard, and other monster skin, so it is much worse. It can't be a real artifact. Therefore, it cant be a real artifact."
Robb nodded. "Correct, that makes sense."
The merchant said, "It will not be favored by the richest people, but will only be favored by some middle-class aristocrats and adventurers, who can't afford to pay a lot of money, so if this leather armor is engraved by the name of the leather maker himself, which can prove the famous masters identity made it, it should be worth 500 gold coins. "
Robb interrupted him, "there is no need for an engraving. The man who made this armor is not a famous leather maker." He is an eccentric hermit who does not like to communicate with others. He is unknown to the world so there is no identity engraving on the leather armor at all."
"Oh, an unknown master, then it can only be worth two hundred gold coins at most." The merchant said, "And even at 200, it may not be sold, because buyers will suspect whether it is really made by grandmaster leather maker. As you know, most people are not as good as I am at appraising items. They can only judge their value by looking at who built them. A discerning merchant like me can only understand whether its at least made by a master, but I cant tell if its made by a grandmaster. So."
"I see." Robb said with a smile: So, after saying so much useful and useless stuff, you are probably thinking in your heart about the price you will buy from me and how youll profit the most, right?" So, you want to buy it at a master level price, then take it to the capital of the saints, and sell it at a grandmaster price to make a lot of money. "
The merchant's face flushed: "Sorry, this is the instinctive reaction of a merchant."
Robb said, "So, at what price do you want to buy it from me?"
The merchant laughed twice: "One hundred gold coins."
Robb said, "Then youll take it to the capital of the saints and sell it for two hundred gold coins and make a profit of a hundred. It's a good business."
The merchant's face turned red, and said, "Mr. Robb, don't I have to pay for transportation? If you carry it to the holy capital to sell it yourself, you'll have to travel a long way, and then, youll have to look everywhere for a buyer, wont you? "
As he said this, he looked a little guilty at Robb and thought, "It looks like he's going to raise the price a little more."
However, Robb didnt. Although he was mocking the merchant for trying to make a lot of profit, he had no intention of bargaining at all. To him, such flying dragon leather armor was just an ordinary item. Hes too lazy to bother for such a minor thing to waste his precious time. Time is something that should be used for laziness, not for doing things.
He said bluntly, "I'll tell you what, if you give me a hundred gold coins, plus this little girl, this flying dragon leather armor will be yours."
"Hey? Really!" The merchant was overjoyed and hurriedly decided, "Then it's settled."
He seemed afraid of Robb changing his mind and waved to his two servants, who pushed the little girl. She ran behind Robb and stood motionless behind him.
[Robb acquired a maid].
Robb glanced at the little girl's face by turning her head and saw that she was obviously relieved. Her eyes were filled with joy and she seemed satisfied that she had been sold to Robb.
Robb realized that being the priest of the Church of Light was quite useful. Even buying a servant would make the servant feel very happy. He might as well use this identity in the future B that the status of the priest of the Church of Light was really very useful, and even buying a servant would make the servant feel very happy. He might as well maintain this identity in the future. There was no real need for him to cut off this status unless it was as a last resort.
The merchant returned to his room, soon took a bag out and put it in front of Robb, opened the bag full of golden coins: "Here are a hundred gold coins. Count them."
"No need to count." Robb put away the bag and said with a smile, "I don't think you dare play tricks in front of me."
"No one dares to deceive the priest of the Church of Light!"
"Well, it was a pleasant deal." Robb stood up and said, "I'm returning to the chapel. I guess you'll make a lot of money in the capital of the Saints soon. Goodbye."
The merchant smiled and said, "Mr. Robb, there is one thing I really don't understand. YouHow did you make this flying dragon leather armor in that small room? Where did the big roll of dragon skin go? It couldnt have been made in such a short time, right? It is impossible to do so in terms of time. "
Robb lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "I'll only tell you. I won't tell anyone. Just now, after I entered the small room, I immediately used a transmission scroll (TL: Yes, the one that takes a long time to activate) to teleport a hundred miles away, I looked for my grandmaster leather maker friend and gave him the double-legged dragon skin. Then he gave me a flying dragon leather armor, and then I sent it back."
"Wow, I see." The merchant's eyes were burning again, "That.. Can you look for him for help in making anything in the future? I. Im willing to buy for a long time! "
Robb laughed: "it depends on whether my friend is in a good mood. I'll tell you that he is a very lazy man who has long disdained to make these worthless objects."
"Oh, really? What a pity!"
