"Don't miss out on this opportunity. Just take a look. All the treasures in this shop cost ten crystals. You won't get cheated or taken advantage of. "
"This shop specializes in all kinds of armors. Light armors, heavy armors, hard armors, soft armors, armors, helmets …."
Just when the two of them were near the shell market, they heard all kinds of hawkers shouting. The Brahma Island was not big, but it was quite prosperous. Because it was a trading port, goods from all over the world were gathered here. Good things that could not be bought in the Southern Continent could be bought here. Moreover, the price was very cheap.
Some of the martial artists went out to sea not to explore, but to trade. From some trading ports and rare islands, they would buy a lot of cheap goods and bring them back to the big cities in the Four Great Continents to sell. Although they did not get any rare treasures on this trip, they still made a lot of money. In fact, it was much better than some adventurers who tried to barge into the Secret Territory and lost their lives.
The helmets were made of shells. The design was not bad. Du Feng picked up one of the helmets and looked at it. This kind of shell was very interesting. There were three holes in the sky, exposing the eyes and nose. If the size was right, it could be worn as a helmet. Since the shell was made of a hard material, it could be used as a defensive helmet.
"How much are you selling this?"
Du Feng was interested. So, he asked about the price.
"Five blue crystals for one. I can get it cheaper if you want more."
The stall owner was excited when he saw that there was a customer. Not only did he tell him the price, but he also introduced the other products. He could tell that Du Feng was a novice sailor. This kind of curious person was the easiest to rip off.
"Are you trying to rip me off? This thing can be found in Silver Beach for free, and you dare to ask for a higher price."
Without waiting for Du Feng to bargain, Gu Xiaobei started to argue with the owner of the stall. The stall owner was right. These helmet-shaped shells did come from Silver Beach. When the tide was high, they would be washed up on the beach, and one could pick up a lot of them at once.
"You can't say that. I also need to pay to go to Silver Beach. Besides, that place is now monopolized by the Sharks Gang. It's impossible to get it for free."
The stall owner was just about to rip off Du Feng when he heard what Gu Xiaobei said. He knew that his dream was about to be shattered. It just so happened that I was able to launch another type of attack, which was to complain about how difficult it was to obtain an analysis. Even if I didn't get any credit, I still got some hard work. I should at least earn some money, right?
"One blue crystal for two. Our Boss Du wants a lot."
Du Feng was shocked when he heard Gu Xiaobei's bargaining. From the price of five blue crystals for one to one blue crystal for two, would the stall owner go crazy after hearing this?
"Oh, it's you, Mr. Du. Sorry for not recognizing you. May I know where you made your fortune?"
Unexpectedly, not only did the stall owner not go crazy, but his attitude became even better. Many shop owners who came to Brahma Sound Island from other continents did this, bringing along a local shop assistant to bargain with them. This kind of person usually needed a lot of goods and would work with them for a long time.
"Boss Du has shops in the East Continent and the South Continent. Just tell me how many goods you have."
Gu Xiaobei's bragging was pretty reliable. Du Feng had an upper-class house in the South Continent's Stony Plain City. He also had some influence in the East Continent.
"I don't have a lot in stock right now because recently …"
"How about I only charge you 4,000 blue crystals for ten thousand?"
The stall owner nagged for a long time and explained all kinds of reasons. He said that the price of the boat tickets had increased recently, that the competition at Silver Beach was fierce, that the Sharks Gang's protection fee had increased again, and that it was hard to get the goods. Du Feng thought that he was going to raise the price, but in the end, he offered 4,000 blue crystals. Selling ten thousand for five thousand blue crystals was even cheaper than one blue crystal for two.
"Do you want it, Brother Du? If not, you can buy a few for fun. Just say that you're buying samples."
Gu Xiaobei actually didn't know if Du Feng was really buying in bulk. He was just bragging. If he wasn't buying in bulk, he definitely wouldn't get such a good price. But it could also be said that he was buying samples first. The price was still cheaper than retail.
"I'll take all ten thousand for three thousand blue crystals. Do you sell them?"
After getting Du Feng's confirmation, Gu Xiaobei slashed the total price by 1,000 blue crystals. The bargaining was really fierce. According to the stall owner's introduction, his cost was 3,500 blue crystals. If he could only earn 500 blue crystals by selling ten thousand, he would be losing money if he sold them for 3,000 blue crystals.
"Alright then. Boss Du, please take care of my business in the future!"
The stall owner hesitated for a while before agreeing to the price of 3,000 blue crystals. Du Feng paid on the spot and kept all the shell helmets into the mini world of his necklace. The lake in the mini world had grown bigger during this period. There was a circle of sand by the lake. It was just right for him to scatter the shells on it.
Just as the shells were scattered, something interesting happened. The mini world suddenly expanded by two times and the water in the lake started to become salty. It seemed like the addition of the ocean elements had made the structure of the mini world more complete.
This necklace was indeed not simple. As different elements were added, the level of the necklace would also increase. He wondered if it would really become a complete world in the future. Usually, when Du Feng added things to it, there would not be such a big reaction. Perhaps it was because of the difference in the expression of the elements on the east and west side of the island.
Du Feng's initial purpose of purchasing these shell helmets was not to add elements to the mini world of his necklace, but to make real helmets. Although the shell helmets were sturdy, they were not infused with elemental force or carved with runes. They could not be considered as real defensive equipment. Otherwise, they would not be so cheap.
He planned to make them into real defensive equipment and sell them. By then, he would definitely make a profit of ten times the original price. Previously, Boss Qian had given him a 400,000 crystal card to show his sincerity. He could consider working with him on defensive equipment.
Eh? Could this be a dudou worn by women? The material was exquisite and smooth, and the style was trendy. The people on this island were really tough to sell. In the East Continent, dudou were all made by themselves because no one was too embarrassed to sell them. Even the shops did not sell them.
Brahma Sound Island was indeed different. Not only were there people selling them, but there were also soldiers hanging on the streets.
"Boss, are you interested? You can follow me to my shop."
