"Humans are known for their treachery and cunning ah, on the cunning, this point within the orc race is only the shrewd Foxy Fox race can compete with it one or two, the other orc races are more obtuse, this aspect of our Sconica swan race is considered to be slightly better, but compared to the same as the noble Foxy Fox race, it's still a little bit worse."
The implication of Shelia's words is probably that humans are just like that, there's no way around it.
Carlos did not think, in fact, he is also a human, to talk about playing tricks, Carlos does not have to be inferior to others, and perhaps even more dark than these human beings, Carlos but there are countless predecessors of the essence of the idea of the previous generation Carlos did not look at the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, such as the thirty-six counts of the classics of this family of soldiers is more familiar with the heart, which can be said to be the mouth, but has been in the way of the laws and regulations of the Carlos can only be The first time I saw him, I was in the middle of a conversation with him, and he was in the middle of a conversation.
But here, Carlos would have no qualms about exercising what he had learned in his chest, and the wisdom of the sages would surely be able to hang on to those mercenaries!
"I just don't understand the value of magic cannons, and besides I didn't fall for it, so why are you acting like you're comforting me."
Carlos said.
"I was trying to tell you that it doesn't matter even if you've been tricked, after all, cunning is a human trait, you've always been overly cautious, and you can't usually be fooled, I'm just afraid that you'll hurt your self-esteem if you know you've been tricked!"
Shelia said.
"You think I also think too fragile it, even if I do not know the market will not necessarily lose, doing business, the price is a process that must be there, and now know that I have the certainty that the price will kill the ground a little lower!"
Carlos said viciously.
"Okay, you guys wait here now, I'm going to go out and deal with this."
With that Carlos exited the cubicle and reentered the main hall.
"Well, this amount is acceptable, we've been working together for so long, and we've always been very trustworthy in this aspect of supply."
Sheridan said.
"Okay, I've always trusted you guys too, that's good you're out, Lord Sacrifice!
Was the nobleman not feeling well?
Do you want me to go in and take a look?"
Eranster had been having a hot talk with Sheridan, and when he saw Carlos come out, Eranster immediately said respectfully.
"No, no, it's just a little illness, maybe a little bit of water and the weather over here is not accustomed to it, that's why I coughed so sharply just now, it's much better now, Elenster, you don't have to bother much about it!"
Carlos meant for Elans to take extra trouble also for Elans to bring it up again in particular.
Carlos was afraid that Eranster would suddenly say Hylia's name, since this Sheridan in front of him had once negotiated with Hylia, he must know Hylia's name, if he said it, it would inevitably make him suspicious, which would not be conducive to the ensuing negotiations.
"I can't believe it's because of the water and the soil?
I was just wondering where this priest-sama came from, it seems like it should be quite far away."
Sheridan said.
"We're fresh from over in the middle of the Empire, a lot to get used to."
Carlos said.
"The climate of the Northern Plains is slightly harsher compared to the center, that noble lord should pay more attention to rest!"
Erlangist said with concern.
"I'll take care of it in the future, so it's good that it's okay already, and by the way, what did you guys talk about just now?
It looks like a good talk."
Carlos said curiously, unable to let Eranster talk any longer, Carlos hurriedly changed the subject.
"Oh, this sub-chief and I have discussed the payment this time, and we have a lot of food left in our clan's warehouse right now, so I hope that there will be more materials in what we give this time."
Erlangist said.
"I see, so is the deal done?
It's okay to move on if you haven't, I can wait."
Carlos said.
"It was already negotiated just now, both of us are satisfied, so you can continue, Priest-sama."
Erlangist said.
"Well then, this Sub-Commander Sheridan, let's move on to the matter about the Magic Cannon just now, for the price you proposed just now, I am not able to accept it."
Carlos said flatly.
"Don't you have enough magic crystals, Lord Priest?
That's a shame."
Sheridan looked sorry for himself.
"No, I think you've misunderstood, it's not that I can't get enough magic crystals, it's that your pricing is simply unreasonable, I refuse to buy a magic cannon at such a price, besides, besides being a priest, I'm a magician myself, and there's no shortage of such things as magic crystals."
Carlos said slowly, while a circle of magical energy lingered between his fingers.
Carlos is in disguise to show his financial strength, meaning it's not that I'm poor, it's that I don't want to spend money in vain, don't you think about screwing me!
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
"So that's how it is, it's my humble self who is being abrupt, I really didn't expect that Lord Sacrifice not only serves this Beast Clan's War God, but at the same time is also highly favored by the Elf Clan's Moon God!"
Sheridan said.
"It's true that compared to humans, it's a little more difficult for Orcs to comprehend and use magical energy, I just got lucky."
Carlos said modestly.
"Since you are a magician, then I won't hide it from you, I did give a high price for the normal price of the magic cannon, higher profit is my eternal pursuit, please forgive my merchant nature, in fact, the normal price of the magic cannon is around fifteen hundred, if I sell it at this price, I will make almost no profit at all, however, to be able to make friends with a Lord who is both a Priest and a magician by this, I feel that it's very It's worth it!"
Sheridan said respectfully, with a look of openness.
Carlos could only sneer at this, this was a textbook way for Sheridan to gain trust, decisively admitting his greed for high profits and then voluntarily lowering the price as if this was the lowest price and I was no longer making money.
In order to appear to be honest, if the average person does not know what they are talking about, they may actually believe it, and feel guilty that they are squeezing the "honest" businessman in front of them!
Carlos might have believed Sheridan's remark if he hadn't asked Hylia about the value of her magic cannon ahead of time, but alas there were no ifs!
"Frankly speaking, I have friends who serve in the Empire's border defense fortification department and have had the pleasure of learning about the price of magical cannons, and your price is very disappointing!"
Carlos didn't want to act, and went straight to showdown with Sheridan, and as for the friend, of course, Carlos had a friend out of nothing, and he couldn't say that Shelia had told him.
"This, you have to understand, the empire definitely buys things through official special channels, that way the price will of course be cheaper, you can't ask our merchant group to have the same price as the price supplied from within the empire, it's equivalent to letting a small wealthy person compare their financial power with a big rich person, it's simply incomparable!"
Sheridan was so skillful that he actually made a few points when he argued his case!
Hearing him say that, Carlos actually also felt a little bit of sense, had wanted to ruthlessly press the price a little bit, Sheridan these few words let Carlos firm conviction shaken!
"It does seem like it, I was thinking a little one-sided."
Carlos seemed to be talked into giving in a bit.
It was then that Carlos saw the corners of Sheridan's mouth rise slightly, and Carlos deciphered it simply as an unconscious expression of the elation that comes with having your intentions succeeded.
"Good lord, I almost believed you!"
Carlos said secretly in his heart, and at the same time, he also woke up, this guy in front of him was indeed a human level, no wonder he could still survive when the ship was sunk, there was really something, and even Carlos was almost moved by the words.
"You less talk to me about this, our orc empire are directly from the dwarf side to buy weapons, the dwarf's exquisite degree of workmanship needless to say, that is absolutely the top level of craftsmanship, even so only a thousand pieces of magic crystals only, you human quality is not as good as the dwarf's, but the price is set higher than the dwarf's!
That's what doesn't even compare!"
Carlos said firmly.
"This" Herald dumbfounded, the so-called not afraid of not knowing the goods, afraid of goods than goods, to take the human to go with the dwarves than, that really can not compare, the human is also learned from the dwarves, and only as a profit-making product, not at all the kind of dwarves for the works of love and pursuit, so in the quality of the poorer, this is also the This is also an indisputable fact.
"Now that you've said that, what is the price you can offer?
You make an offer!"
Seeing that he couldn't talk Carlos out of it,Sheridan had to take a step back and let Carlos set the price.
"In my opinion, it's reasonable to set the price of a Magic Cannon at eight hundred magic crystals, that's the most fair price!"
Carlos said blandly.
"What?
Eight hundred?
Geez, even the snarkiest Foxy Fox Clan wouldn't set such an outrageous price!
You're practically a demon!
If that's the price, then our deal can't go through, I won't do a business that's completely unprofitable or even going to lose money!"
Sheridan shrill voice said, this price makes Sheridan very difficult to accept, the look is really like a profit-oriented sharp businessman, probably often play businessman a little bit into the drama, completely into the role, more like a businessman than a businessman!
"The Foxy Foxes are our nobility!
Please watch your words!
And the one before you is an even more noble order priest of the Orc Empire!
This is in the land of the Orc Empire, not your Starfall Empire!
Watch out for controlling your attitude!"
Elanst said righteously, while saying so, the palpitating energy fluctuation escaping outward, the magic energy on the cane slightly rippled, reminding people of this dry, thin and short old man's another identity, this is a real sun magician ah!
Equivalent to the existence of a sixth-order magical beast, it was the same level of existence as the Knight of Glory among humans, and the destructive power of a magician was the highest among these if we were to talk about destructive power alone!
"I'm sorry, please forgive me for losing my temper, the price you offered, Priest-sama, was so outrageous that I didn't have control for a moment!"
Feeling the chilling fluctuation of magical energy in the space, Sherid hurriedly apologized.
Erlangist's words were still strong, and Sheridan immediately calmed down at the threat to his life.
"Well, Eranster, put away your surging magical energies for a moment, Mr. Sheridan is a little agitated, but that's perfectly normal, I can understand his feelings."
Carlos said with great tolerance.
Elenster sniffed and immediately calmed the fluctuations of magical energy on his cane.
"Thank you for your understanding, Lord Priest!"
Sheridan said as he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"I do understand you, then you have to understand me as well, the price of a magic cannon is not at all as high as you set it, you can't just rip me off like I'm an ingrate!"
Carlos said in a hushed voice.
"Honorable Priest-sama, I didn't mean that at all, the ship's magic guided cannons were also purchased at the cost of magic crystals, I can't sell them at a lower price than when I bought them!"
Sheridan said bitterly.
"You say you're from the Starfall Empire, so wouldn't you have traveled across the high seas of Tiboro?
A lot of magic crystals were consumed on the way, right? After all, it's a lot of money to maintain the power of the ship, I guess!"
Carlos said flatly.
"Ship power certainly consumes a lot of magic crystals, so what?"
Sheridan didn't understand what Carlos meant by that.
"That's why you have to trade, do you think you guys can make it back safely without enough magic crystals?
In case we encounter winds and waves along the way that cause us to deviate from our course, and we have to consume more magic crystals to make adjustments, will your reserve of magic crystals be insufficient?"
Carlos sneered, a knowing smile on his face.
"When we go to the center of the country to do business, the large amount of goods we've hoarded will be turned into magic crystals, that's something you don't have to worry about at all."
Sheridan said.
"And what if you can't go to Central for business?"
Carlos said sorrowfully, it was a naked threat that Carlos had not disguised in the slightest.
"We have a deep friendship with the North and have always had an unimpeded flow of traffic, so how could we not go?
Right, Patriarch Elansted!"
Sheridan pretended not to understand the meaning of Carlos' words, then turned his head to Erlangist with the clear meaning of asking Erlangist to help him say something.
"Eh, that, Priest-sama, them going to the center is also greatly beneficial to the center, so it's not good to intentionally target them like this in order to suppress the price."
Eranster ate the soft mouth and took the short hand, at this time can only be hard to say a couple of words, and he also felt that Carlos did this thing a little harshly, said when the discretionary words, expressed a little bit of opinion.
"You have no reason to stop us, buying and selling is not a good thing, Lord Priest, don't be too desperate in what you do, it's not good for everyone!"
Sheridan said with a smile and a winning look.
"Excuse me, this is the Northern Plains!
, in the North Plains, I call the shots!
As long as I don't want you to go you can't get out, if you don't believe me!"
Carlos said with great arrogance.
"Do you have to go this far just for that price?
As a wizard you are not short of magic crystals, so why do you do this?"
Sheridan was a little puzzled, not understanding why Carlos was being like this.
"It's not just about the magic crystals."
Carlos said lightly.
"And because of what?"
Sheridan asked.
"I naturally have my reasons!"
Carlos said.
