After deciding to rest at the Datang Chamber of Commerce's stronghold, Tang En and the others walked a few steps along the main road and came to the Fehra branch of the Datang Chamber of Commerce. This stronghold was bigger than other cities because it was a huge commercial port city, so image was very important, and the cost of the shop was also higher.
"Welcome, Your Majesty!"
Bennett Mason, the person in charge of the Datang Chamber of Commerce here, knew that Tang En might be coming, so when he heard the news, he immediately brought everyone out to greet Tang En. If the crowd who didn't know the truth saw this, they might really misunderstand.
After the group entered the living room, Tang En began to ask about the local situation of the Datang Chamber of Commerce. After a brief understanding of the situation, he was very satisfied with Bennett's answer. The monthly profit of this stronghold was more than 500,000 gold coins, which was very impressive.
What was even better was that this stronghold had developed quite well here. The intelligence network had covered the whole of Fehra, and any new news could be obtained immediately.
As a port city, many news from other countries could be obtained here. Although the efficiency was a bit poor, it was better than nothing.
Tang En flipped through the account book and asked, "Did anything big happen recently?"
The Nutao Fishmen had run along the Nars River to Paganis, so as a port city, there was no reason for Fehra not to have any news.
"Something big?"
Bennett was stunned and shook his head. "Nothing big, but the spring auction of the Black Pearl Auction House is starting tomorrow. It's one of the big events in Fehra."
"Spring auction of the auction house?"
Tang En's body shook. It's here, the routine of the transmigrated protagonist is finally here!
If he wasn't mistaken, it should be him shaking his body at the auction house to show off and recruit underlings, gain the favor of honeyed beauties, and at the same time, buy all kinds of divine weapons and super divine weapons, and embark on the rhythm of the peak of life!
Oh, gods! You still love me!
Tang En's spirit was lifted, and he forgot to ask about the Nutao Fishmen. He directly asked, "What's the background of this Black Pearl Auction House? Is there anything good? "
Bennett laughed, "The Black Pearl Auction House is an auction house under the Star Diamond Bank. They've sold a lot of good stuff in the past. There's magic equipment, rare metals, rare magic cores, manuscripts, treasures, and so on."
Tang En felt a stab of pain in his heart. Star Diamond Bank, it was the Star Diamond Bank again. He should have expected this.
Damn it, other Transmigrators were doing well by opening banks. When it was Tang En's turn, the Goblins had already taken over the banks. The Goblins had even thought of how to settle investments and loans in other places. What else could Tang En do?
"Of course, the most important point is the relationship between the Black Pearl Auction House and the legendary hero Angus …"
"Angus?!"
Tang En suddenly came back to his senses. "Continue!"
Bennett was stunned. He nodded and continued, "It's said that the person in charge of the Black Pearl Auction House, Cody Lead, knows Angus. Therefore, he can often get some of Master Angus's products to buy. Every time Master Angus' alchemy products attract a lot of customers."
"It's said that the last time Master Angus made a set of magic accessories, it had three enchantments and a permanent tier-3 spell to protect against physical damage. In the end, the accessories were sold for a sky-high price of 500,000 gold coins."
Excellent-grade magic accessories usually had three enchantments, and the average market price was around 100,000 gold coins. It was very difficult to create a tier-3 defensive spell on top of that. This was because creating a permanent spell would put a lot of pressure on the materials of the accessories. Creating a permanent spell could easily lead to failure.
Being able to create something like this meant that Angus was definitely worthy of his reputation.
Tang En rolled his eyes and thought of an idea. He suddenly asked, "Is it too late to take something to the spring auction?"
Bennett was stunned for a moment. He then said proudly, "Others might not be able to, but if it's the Datang Chamber of Commerce, then it's definitely not a problem. Your Majesty, do you have something you want to deal with?"
"No, I just suddenly feel like fishing."
"Fishing?"
Bennett was confused. He didn't know what the big boss was trying to say.
Tang En smiled strangely. Since Angus' whereabouts were secretive and it was difficult to find him, then he might as well not look for him. He might as well use the bait to lure him out.
Tang En planned to use his alchemy equipment as bait.
Angus had a very close relationship with the Black Pearl Auction House. If his item was added to the auction list, it would definitely attract Cody's attention. Perhaps he would inform Angus. If Angus was really a master obsessed with alchemy, he wouldn't miss this opportunity. He would definitely come here once he got the news.
Once they met, Tang En, who was eager to catch a strong man, wouldn't let him run away?
Bennett asked, "Your Majesty, what are you going to put up for auction? You'd better tell me now so that I can communicate with the Black Pearl Auction House. "
Yes, what should he put up for auction?
Tang En frowned. He had tinkered with a lot of things, but those magic-powered furniture and magic-powered machines had already been released to the market. Auctioning them here wouldn't cause any waves. If he wanted to attract Angus' attention, it had to be something that had never been seen before. It had to be something that had a high level of technology and a novel idea.
Tang En's gaze swept around and landed on the chainsword.
He wasn't thinking about the chainsword, but the earliest product, the universal alloy Ironsword.
Tang En asked, "Elsa, do you still have your Ironsword?"
"Yes, I do."
Elsa flipped her hand, and the Ironsword appeared in her hand. Although she already had a more suitable chainsword, as the Ironsword that Tang En had made for her, she had always been careful with it. After Tang En gave her the portal ring, she put it in the ring.
The Ironsword itself didn't have a high level of technology. Its value mainly came from the folding forging method of the dwarves, the universal alloy, and the constant spells that Tang En had personally cast.
The powerful properties of the universal alloy provided a total of 14 spell slots for the Ironsword, which allowed Tang En to cast multiple levels of constant spells on it.
Whether it was the material itself or the constant spells, they all had great value. They should be able to attract Angus' attention.
However, Tang En felt that only one Ironsword was not enough, but if the chainsword was also auctioned, the type would conflict.
Of course, it wasn't that the chainsword was bad, but because the chainsword was too good, it would overshadow the Ironsword's limelight, so it couldn't be auctioned.
To put it bluntly, the chainsword didn't have a high level of technology, but it won in the novel and unique concept, and was powerful. It had four more spell slots than the Ironsword, reaching 18 spell slots. Coupled with the enchantment and constant spells, Tang En felt that the quality of the chainsword had even surpassed the excellent grade and reached the legendary grade. It was much better than the Ironsword.
In addition to the chainsword, Tang En also planned to auction a Harley motorcycle.
On the one hand, it was because the Harley motorcycle would be produced in the later stages of the production of civilian models. Since Fehra was so prosperous with people from all over the world, coupled with the reputation of the Black Pearl Auction House, if it was auctioned here, it would be equivalent to doing an advertisement and making the Harley motorcycle famous in one fell swoop.
When the civilian model went on the market, it would definitely be well received.
The Harley-Davidson motorcycle also won because of its ingenious design. The wind-powered magic engine ingeniously used the power of wind magic and perfectly combined it with gnomish engineering to give birth to this product. Angus would definitely be interested in it.
In addition, after a moment of consideration, Tang En decided that the last item to be auctioned would be the magic pistol with a single magical effect. Although it was only a single magical effect, the important thing was the thought process. If Angus saw it, he might be greatly inspired.
As a trump card, the small magic energy pistol could instantly cast spells without needing to know any magic. Once it was exposed, it would definitely cause the adventurers and Heaven's Enlighteners to go crazy. This was a super bomb, and no one could predict the effects that would follow.
After thinking about it, Tang En's mind became active. He simply made the decision and said, "The auction products will be the Iron Sword, the Harley motorcycle, and the single magic effect magic pistol. The magic pistol will be the final product."
Bennett was stunned. "Your Majesty, the Iron Sword is fine, but the Harley motorcycle and the magic pistol are military products that Ellington never sells, right? Is it really okay to auction them like this? "
What Bennett said was also what Olina, Elsa, and Depp wanted to say.
Tang En said confidently, "Don't worry, I have my own plans."
If he sold these things, he was not afraid that others would copy them. On the one hand, he was the only one who could improve the miniature magic circle manually. Even a copy could not be made. How many people in Prandal could be as powerful as him?
On the other hand, it was because of the materials. The materials used to carry these magic circles were expensive magic metals such as fine gold and mithril, such as Auguin. Even the main part was the universal alloy that only Ellington could produce. Even if others got the finished product, they would not be able to copy it successfully without the materials. Ordinary materials could not withstand the pressure of the magic flowing in them.
Thinking about it from another perspective, if these things could really attract people to copy them, it would be a good thing. It would mean that Prandal was finally on the path of a true magic civilization. The pinnacle of magic civilization was rune technology. The power of magic would be completely quantified, patterned, and standardized, allowing everyone to enjoy the convenience of magic.
At that time, a magician would no longer be a battle-type profession, but a researcher, similar to the role of scientists and inventors on Earth. The progress of the entire Prandal society would be driven by magicians.
Wasn't this the result that Tang En was looking forward to? At the thought of spaceships driven by magic, Tang En trembled with excitement.
The sea of stars was the ultimate romance of a man!
