Chapter 241 240. Resentful eyes
The various workshops in Hailansa City are basically concentrated in the southwest corner of the city.
This is the lowest place in the city, with dozens of chimneys erected among the forested workshops.
Suldak came to a blacksmith shop on horseback. The owner of the blacksmith shop was bare-chested, wearing a leather apron, and holding a small hammer in his hand, constantly hammering and forging a sickle.
There was a fire in the room, and it looked very hot. One side of the blacksmith shop was covered with various weapons and agricultural tools, and some shelves were also filled with iron.
The owner of the blacksmith shop saw Suldak coming in, so he handed the hammer in his hand to his assistant, then straightened up and asked Suldak: "My lord knight, what do you need? Repairing weapons or shoeing horseshoes?"
Suldak didn't find the iron parts he needed on the wall, so he took out the hinges, bolts and nails and put them on the table, and asked the blacksmith shop owner, "Do you have these here?"
The owner of the blacksmith shop only glanced at it, and replied, "Um, yes."
After finishing speaking, he walked into the shelf area, took out the goods inside and put them on the table, and introduced to Suldak: "Master Knight, if this kind of hinge is installed on the door, you should choose a larger one. The price is 20 copper plates a pair, the window can be slightly smaller, the price is 15 copper plates, this kind of door bolt is 18 copper plates, the iron nails are sold by the catty, and the price is 12 copper plates. A pound."
Suldak calculated how many nails one gold coin could buy, and it was about 800 pounds.
He looked down at the three gold coins in his hand. If he only bought these three kinds of iron pieces, he might renovate all the houses in the village, and he would never run out of these iron pieces.
When the old village chief made these decisions, he probably didn't realize that the salamander meat could sell for so much money, so he temporarily changed his mind and saw sickles, hoes, hammers, saws, Tools such as axes, I thought to myself, otherwise I would buy more or less of these...
When Suldak came out of the blacksmith shop, the clerk of the blacksmith shop moved out two large wooden boxes and piled them at the door of the shop.
The owner of the blacksmith shop enthusiastically followed and came out, and saw that Suerdak was only riding a horse, and there was no carriage parked at the door.
The owner of the blacksmith shop felt that this taciturn knight had bought so many things, almost bought all the farm tools in the shop, and he didn't talk about the price of anything, as long as he quoted the price, he would buy a few, which made the blacksmith shop The boss feels that when meeting such a customer, he should serve him more attentively.
Seeing Suldak frowned when he saw the two large boxes of ironware, he thought to himself: It seems that this knight has encountered a problem, and he didn't consider the transportation problem at all before buying it.
The veteran of the blacksmith shop said respectfully: "Master Knight, where do you plan to send these goods, this shop can hire a carriage from a carriage dealer for you, and we will definitely deliver them on time."
Suerdak was worrying about how to transport these goods away, when he heard the blacksmith's owner say this, he was overjoyed and said to the blacksmith's owner: "Do you still have such a service in your shop? This really saves me a lot of trouble." , please send these goods to Wall Village, and I will pay for the freight."
The store clerk couldn't help complaining in his heart: Of course we don't have this kind of service at ordinary times, but of course we can have it when we meet a big customer like you.
The owner of the blacksmith shop bowed to Suldak and said seriously: "I am very willing to serve you, Sir Knight!"
Seeing that the owner of the blacksmith shop is good at doing business like this, Suerdak temporarily thought that if he wanted to build a reservoir in the village in the future, it would not be enough to have only cement. will appear stronger.
Then he asked the blacksmith shop owner: "Oh, by the way, can you make iron bars here? It's about as thick as a little finger."
The owner of the blacksmith shop showed a bitter expression on his face, and explained to Suldak:
"My lord knight, the cost of iron bars hammered by hand will be very high. Generally, the iron bars on the market are rolled. This rolling process is only available in large blacksmith workshops. As far as I know, there is a blacksmith in Bena City The workshop specializes in rolling iron bars and iron plates, and the Hailansa City Iron and Steel Trading Company acts as an agent for these products, you can go there and look for them, if you can’t find a suitable one, you can come to order a handmade one.”
"Oh, there are still rolled iron bars. I'll go to the trading house to have a look." Suldak nodded and said in response.
When he came to Kaifang District, Suldak found that the industrial foundation of this world is not bad at all, if it belongs to the level of the steam industry era, but the people of the Green Empire don’t pay much attention to industry, they pay more attention to magic items .
In the Grimm Empire, the value of an ordinary magic item is very expensive, and magic has also affected people's lives.
The airport pier of Hailansa City is built on the top of the mountain. Looking from a distance, I can see a magic airship parked there.
The trading firm in Hailansa City is located on the main street in the city, and the location is very easy to find. The female receptionists in the trading firm are very warm and beautiful, and they always like to put the heavy burden on Suldak. However, the process of purchasing steel bars was very smooth. You just need to explain the specifications and quantity you need. After the trading company gives a corresponding quotation, Suldak pays half of the deposit. One month later, these finger-thick steel bars will be sold Will be sent to Wall Village.
After Suldak walked out of the trading house, he realized that the whole afternoon was about to pass.
A magical caravan of silver decorations passed the street, and the carriage of the magic caravan was printed with a sun and a golden mask.
Suldak stopped and waited for the magic caravan to pass by before walking to the opposite side of the street. He brought back the Gu Bolai horse who was about to gnaw the bark, rode on the horse and walked slowly towards the hotel.
…
The magic caravan inlaid with silver ornaments was parked next to a jewelry store at the crossroads, and the coachman sat quietly in the driver's seat and waited.
Dacie Christie was sitting in the magic caravan, supporting her chin with one hand. She saw the knight walking away slowly through the window of the compartment polished with exquisite patterns. He looked very leisurely, and his bright red lips drew A beautiful arc, she did not expect to meet him in the city of Hailansa.
I believe Cole Norton will be very happy when he hears the news.
I didn't expect that I would have such a big harvest when I went home this time. Darcy Christie poured himself a glass of golden cider, raised the glass and toasted to the background of the knight on the horse... and drank it in one gulp. Drank the wine in the glass.
‘Hehe, since I’m back in Hailansa City, I will treat you well! ’ Darcy Christie thought to herself.
…
Walking on the street, Suldak, who was researching what these shops sold in private, didn't notice at all that a pair of young eyes with resentment were staring at him in a magic caravan beside the street...
