The fleet docked, and the entire town erupted again.
When the Wings of Radiance and the Whaler docked, the dwarves waiting in line cheered and swarmed onto the ship!
Dafei was so anxious that he peed his pants. "Hey! General, this is for sale, not for free! "
Barto laughed. "Of course! We just need to unload the goods. You just need to go to the tavern and trade with Barkley! "
Dafei was stunned. "Trade at the tavern?"
Barto laughed. "Of course, our town doesn't have a proper trading center, so Barkley from the tavern is in charge of the trade. You can find him."
Damn! No proper trading center? An aura of deceit assaulted his senses! How could this be? But it was better than robbing. I was scared to death just now! After all, it was a game, and the basic rights of the players were still protected. If it was in another world, damn it, who knew what would happen if they really robbed him?
The town's dock was very small. After docking Dafei's two ships, there was no way to dock warships. Under the guidance of a small boat, Dafei and Barto went ashore. Barto could not wait to personally transport the goods, so he sent a soldier to bring Dafei to the tavern.
Thus, Dafei brought Catalina, Serbia, Anlícia, Kortner, and Spielberg to the tavern.
Dafei began to excitedly calculate how much he could sell this batch of goods that cost him 50,000 gold coins.
First of all, this was an ocean trade. As long as there were no local products of the same type, even if it was not a specialty, selling it for double the price was the lowest, which was 50,000 gold coins to 100,000 gold coins. Then, there were urgently needed items, which was the lowest, so 100,000 gold coins to 200,000 gold coins.
Then, there was the risk factor of this journey. Sea monsters were rampant in the North Sea, and sirens were everywhere. They could lose everything at any time, so they had to at least double the loss. 200,000 gold coins to at least 400,000 gold coins!
That's right, according to the rules of the trade system, this trip of 50,000 gold coins had to be sold for at least 400,000 gold coins! At least! It could not be lower than that! This profit was equivalent to ten times the profits of long-distance international specialties!
For a moment, Dafei was slightly excited. Four hundred thousand! Now that the game had only been open for half a month, it was an astronomical sum of money. How many things could be done with it?
They arrived at the tavern. Among the bleak stone houses on the island, this tavern was particularly eye-catching. For the dwarves, other buildings could be ignored, but taverns were luxuriously decorated. In fact, the dwarves preferred to discuss business over drinks in taverns, so using taverns as a substitute for the trading house was in keeping with their culture.
In the tavern's fireplace, the odd-smelling volcanic lava was burning for warmth. Only a few neutral dwarven heroes were drinking and waiting for players to hire them. Of course, Dafei would never consider such a thing. He wouldn't even want the best. In Dafei's eyes, there was only a beautiful vice-hero.
The Dwarf shopkeeper called Barkley took the initiative to greet him. "Welcome, you must be the Warriors who brought our goods. I'm in charge of the bill! Please show me your bill of sale. "
Oh yeah, although it's not official, his attitude seems to be similar to the traders in big cities.
Dafei could not help but feel relieved. He handed over a thick stack of bills. Barkley took the bills and was stunned.
Dafei's heart tightened. Hey, hey! What's going on? Why didn't the trading page appear? Why didn't the system prompt appear? I can't see the price of goods here!
Damn! Is it really a scam? Speaking of which, this trading house is not standard. My trading method is not standard either! How can I unload the goods first and then sell the bill? This is no different from forced buying and selling. Oh no, it's no different from robbery, right?
Dafei was anxious. "Sir, say something!"
Barkley finally came back to his senses. He stroked his beard and said in a trembling voice, "Warrior, according to the market, your goods should be able to sell for 943,434 gold coins!"
940,000! That's twice as much as I expected! Dafei was ecstatic. "Then pay up!"
Barkley said with a sad face, "But we're isolated from the Alliance. There's no bank, no money!"
Damn! Damn, I can't believe I encountered such a thing!
Dafei was about to go crazy. "But you've already unloaded the goods. I saw people opening the boxes and drinking on the spot. You, you, you, you, you, you actually say you don't have money!"
Barkley hurriedly waved his hand. "But we can negotiate. How about we pay with goods? Use our special crystal ores! " As he spoke, he took out a shiny stone. "This is it. This is a strategic resource. As long as you ship it back, it won't just be 940,000 gold coins!"
Ah, pfft! Dafei spat out a mouthful of blood!
Dafei could not help but roar. "Are you kidding me? Do you know how difficult it was for me to make this trip? Do you know how many sea monsters I encountered along the way? Do you know that I was ambushed by the undead fleet just to enter the port? It's a miracle that the goods could reach here! Are you saying that I didn't earn a single cent? Then, I took a huge risk to bring the goods back? Then, I wasn't lucky enough to encounter a sea monster and get sunk. Then, I didn't get anything! "
Barkley sighed. "Warrior, this is much better than returning empty-handed. It's worth the risk!"
Dafei was surprised. "I'll return empty-handed? What do you mean? "
Barkley sighed. "Warrior, your Merchant License is only Level 1. That means you can only buy 10 orders a day. With your fleet's capacity, you'll have to wait here for a month to return with a full load. But we only have two months to thaw every year. Now, it's been almost a month. If you really wait for a month, you won't be able to return. You'll have to stay here for a year! I think Warrior wouldn't want that, right? "
Dafei was shocked! Damn, that's true! When I came here, I was busy buying orders from players. I'm the only player here. Who else could I buy?
Wouldn't this kind of exchange solve the problem of receiving goods for this brother? Wait a minute! Could it be that Fire Dragon Island's trading method is to exchange goods for goods? If that's the case, why should I fight? I'll just be asking for trouble if I fight with the System!
After calming down, Dafei had no choice but to accept this cheating method. The greater the risk, the greater the profit, after all. If they were to bring back Purple Crystal ores, they would definitely not be able to compare to these goods that were used to eat, drink, and play.
Dafei sighed. "Alright, let's exchange then."
Barkley sighed. "Thank you, Warrior, for your cooperation."
Dafei was unhappy. "Why are you sighing?"
Barkley was also unhappy. "If we weren't trapped for three years, we definitely wouldn't do such a losing trade!"
Damn! Is the System trying to appease the players and tell me that this new method is worth it?
Barkley took out a list. "This is the price of the ores here. Warrior, choose the goods you want to exchange."
On the normal trading interface, the price interface finally appeared. The "940,000" that Dafei didn't get was also marked in the capital column. So, this was a game of exchanging goods!
Looking at the various Red Crystal ores, Green Crystal ores, and Blue Crystal ores, Dafei couldn't be bothered to choose. If he wanted to exchange, he would exchange for the most expensive one.
Dafei chose the Purple Crystal ores that cost 2,200 gold each. "I'll take it!" As expected of ores, the price was terrifying. Which small player could afford it?
— System Notification: You spent 940,000 gold to exchange for 427 units of Fire Dragon Island's specialty "Purple Crystal ores"!
Oh yeah! It really was a specialty! If it was a specialty, it would be eight times, or five times, so 940,000 would become 9.4 million! At the very least, it would be 4.7 million! Then, with the risk factor doubled, there was no way he could get away with 10 million yuan!
Damn! It can't be. 50,000 capital became 10 million in a few days? I can't believe it! The System is so generous? No, no, no. This is a trade that only happens once a year! And there's such a huge risk. It's much worse than the big Chamber of Commerce selling specialty products during the open beta. There must be such huge profits!
Barkley let out a long sigh with a long face. "Warrior, you're really lucky. These Purple Crystal mines are the output we've accumulated after being trapped for three years. In previous years, the Kingdom's supply ships would've towed them back along the way. There's no stock even if you want to buy them."
