Pirate Alliance: Chapter 9 Selling swords
Qiu Bai held the scabbard in his left hand and the hilt in his right hand, holding his breath, and then swung the knife out. His movements were less direct and violent than before, but more light, and changed from striking iron to something like "swinging a whip".
Berserker's color finally retreated a little.
Directly in front of him, a little further away is the sea, and between him and the sea is a rock similar to his height, which is also the target of his slashing.
But it seems that the distance between the location of Qiubai Station and the target is still a bit far.
"Qiubai, you can go now."
"it is good."
After hearing the voice behind him, Qiubai put away the knife, and just waiting for him to turn around, the back of the reef spewed out a mist in a straight line... It was the dust that was instantly generated by the exciting friction caused by the attack.
I can't see how hard Qiubai was, the reef was split into two smoothly, and the thing called "Sword Qi" extended his attack distance further... After staying on this island for two months , Qiubai finally did what Ryoma asked him to do.
After reaching such a set goal, Qiubai and the two will also go to sea again, but before that, there is still a problem that they must get a boat.
Before they can get the boat, they have to get the money to buy the boat. Fortunately, Qiubai never worries about money. He also has a plan, and the next destination for the two of them is... Baron Island, Baron Town, Baron Port.
This is also the first time the two have gone to the other side of the island in such a long time.
When he was in his hometown, Qiubai heard that this island is relatively prosperous, so he made it his first destination, but after encountering Longma, this destination became a secondary thing, so at this time , he had the consciousness to go to the town.
The two walked from one side of the island to the opposite side along the coast. The island is very large, and naturally it took them a long time, but it would not cause any serious physical burden.
After going around such a big circle, Balon Harbor appeared in front of Qiu Bai and the others, but the scene in front of him made him slightly uncomfortable, who had been accustomed to seeing small villages for more than ten years.
Streaming crowds, bustling voices, row upon row of buildings... Qiubai doesn't understand statistics, but looking at the scale of this place, it is more like a city than a town, and it even looks like it is so small with hundreds of thousands what the population looks like.
It can't be considered small anymore.
This island is a transportation node connecting the surrounding sea areas. Its commercial prosperity and huge floating population are its major features.
And among the various towns, there may be soldiers, sailors, pirates and even bounty hunters mixed in, so there must be shops dedicated to them in such a large town.
For example, bars, and weapons stores.
Qiubai was okay, after a little getting used to it, he recovered, but Ain was a little timid... This is relatively normal, in terms of this life, because he has always lived on Whale Island, probably all the people the two have met so far. The sum is less than three digits, and now seeing the crowd crowded scene, her worldview has actually been impacted.
Fortunately, there is Qiubai leading the way... even though he doesn't know the way at all.
While inquiring about directions, he led Ain around, and after half an hour, he finally found what was said to be the largest weapons store.
And this shop specializes in swords, which is perfect for Qiu Bai, so he plunged in without saying a word.
"Guest, welcome, what can I do..."
The area of the shop is not small, more than 100 square meters, and the four walls are covered with all kinds of swords, some traditional styles, some strange styles, some for cavalry, and some for infantry. , arranged in an S word for a while, and an M word for a while.
However, it seems that there is only one person in charge of business in this store. There is no one else here. The owner is a man who looks to be around 50 years old. He wears a pair of round-frame glasses and looks like a "businessman" with a smile. .
Qiubai interrupted him directly, and then slapped the knife he just used in front of the boss... This is the reason why he hadn't put it away just now.
"Five craftsmen of good and quick swords, famous sword "Okayama", 2 million Baileys. "
Qiu Bai said quickly... If he can accurately describe his current behavior, this is the legendary sword seller.
I have to say, although sometimes Qiubai is a talker...cough, although sometimes he prefers to be reasonable, but under certain special circumstances he speaks very straightforwardly...that's the time to "do business" right now.
With a dark red scabbard and an unadorned style, the boss supported his round glasses, then pressed the scabbard with his left hand, and pulled out the blade with his right hand.
The restrained murderous aura, the low-key cold light, and the simple blade pattern all show that this is not a simple thing.
The boss first carefully observed it, and then stretched out his hand to flick the sword, and the special "sounding sound" of the sword came out...
"Good knife," with the boss's years of experience in the industry, he can quickly make this correct judgment, "2 million is worth it... If it is really "Okayama". "
In other words, it is not worth 2 million.
Because this is Qiubai's "Thousand Knives", it is impossible for it to appear in the ranks of "Good and Quick Knives and Fifty Workers" anyway.
Qiubai just carried on rhetoric and fake and shoddy without saying a word.
I don't even think about how a more professional sword dealer could be fooled by such a simple matter.
The boss first put the thousand knives back into the scabbard, and then pushed him in Qiubai's direction. This action seemed to show that he was not very interested in this business.
"Little brother, the lion has opened his mouth, you must understand that the number of famous knives in the world like 'good and fast knives' can never be only fifty, but 2 million Baileys... Only good knives will be above this price, you Do you know why?"
"A very simple word, fame."
The reflection of the glasses made the eyes of the weapon shop owner well hidden at this moment.
Qiu Bai Xin said that I still need you to say it? If you have a reputation, you will have a good quality. If you have a good quality, you will naturally be more expensive. This is a rule that applies no matter what world you are in.
"400,000 Baileys."
The boss gave his offer, and he directly cut the price to one-fifth... Although the cut was quite fierce, 400,000 was not a small number, which also made Qiubai understand that the other party didn't care as much as he showed. He really wanted to take down the sword.
Observing the words and expressions, the boss can probably see that the little brother in front of him is not the kind of person who wants to be fooled. It seems impossible to confuse him with rhetoric, and it seems impossible to spend 30,000 to 50,000 yuan to win this high-quality knife, so he only The price can be reduced as much as possible within the "reasonable" range.
"1.5 million." Qiu Bai said, he cut it hard himself, because he really needed money.
"600000."
"1.2 million."
"900,000."
The boss just wanted to say that this was the highest price he could offer, and then used this to put pressure on him, but he didn't think so...
"Deal, but I only accept cash."
The boss was severely choked, so the deal was done? Well, although the price is within the affordable range, the other party is a little too straightforward and the boss feels a loss.
It seems that 600,000 can be taken down...
But no matter what he thought, for Qiubai, the money to buy the boat was already in his hands.
But after the deal was concluded, Qiu Bai didn't leave the place directly, but turned around in the weapon shop, and then he saw the most expensive knife.
"This is your best knife?"
The boss was preparing cash for Qiu Bai, and he said without looking back, "Yes, Da Kuai Dao 21, the famous knife "Guo Guang", is your brother interested? 20 million Bailey. "
His attitude is very casual. It is hard to imagine that a person who just sold his knife for 900,000 will then buy a famous knife for 20 million.
This little brother doesn't look like that kind of rich man.
"100,000."
Qiubai seems to be bargaining.
Judgment and rational analysis, in his opinion, more than 80% of this knife is an imitation, and there are only 21 pieces in the world.
But this is not important.
"what??"
The boss was a little angry, how could there be such a bargain, "You can't even buy a scabbard for 100,000 Baileys, little brother!"
Qiu Bai ignored the boss's attitude, he stretched out his hand and tapped inside the glass counter, "It doesn't matter if you can't buy it, I don't want a scabbard..."
"One hundred thousand Baileys, sell me the sword box that holds the sword."
This... is this the legendary "return of pearls"?
The boss's lungs are going to explode. I've never seen anyone who buys things like this. It's a set of things that he carefully designed, right? The pursuit of the most reasonable and attractive appearance is one of his principles. The pursuit of decoration is one of his principles. One, a mere 100,000 Bailey is an insult and blasphemy to him!
…sold.
Buying a wooden box for 100,000 yuan will give you the ratio of income and the rate of taking the bait. If you don't sell it, the boss's brain will be kicked by the door, or the donkey will be caught.
