Chapter 5 - Business partner

What a idiot well what ever now were do In find un inn or beater how do I pay for the in.

Simple.

First I went to the smith to see how much iron ore costs, but they didn't sell any, they only had low quality ones and those are 2 copper a piece. Then I piked a spot near the village entrance and stated chanting.

''ORE'S FOR SALE, NORMAL QUALITY IRON ORE PERFECT TO LEVEL YOUR BLACK SMITING SUB-JOB!!''

''ORE'S FOR SALE, NORMAL QUALITY IRON ORE PERFECT TO LEVEL YOUR BLACK SMITING SUB-JOB!!''

''ORE'S FOR SALE, NORMAL QUALITY IRON ORE PERFECT TO LEVEL YOUR BLACK SMITING SUB-JOB!!''

After just a couple of lines a person chowed interest. A well build, brown heard, green eyed man probably 25 to 30 years old. Looks like the blacksmiths tip.

''Hey, aren't these just low quality iron why shout so much?''

''because they aren't just low quality iron, the are normal quality iron.''

''So?''

''New to the business I see. To put is simply a miner needs to be level 3 to be able to mine these and to level up is gone take time at least a couple of hours and then to get 50 like I have may even take half a day, a blacksmith training using my normal iron is obviously gone have beater results then one using lower quality goods, right?''

''Ok, I get your point but if it takes others half a day to get these why do you have them?''

''I work for 'the mining company' we specialize in collecting and selling high quantities of ore, mostly to solo players and small guilds.''

''Never heard of your company before.''

''We are just a small company no more then 20 people are working there currently.''

That is obviously a lie but I can't have people knowing I'm a doing business alone, now can I. That would make me a easy target and serious damage my credibility and thus my sales.

''How much a piece?''

Good, he obviously lost interest in the topic.

One low quality iron is 2 copper I need 2 of those to make 1 normal quality one. But that would be under selling and that is never good so lets go with

''10 copper a piece.''

''What low quality iron is only 2 copper, are your trying to scam me!?''

''You said it your self low quality ones are 2 copper min aren't low quality,they are the superior normal quality ones.''

''Give me 2.''

He probably could afort the loss even if it was a scam.

The first customer is the most important, after one person buys your produced other are more tempted to buy it too. Now it's all about finding a regular customer, a small guild preferably the big and mid sized ones are problematic they will want a exclusive contract or recruit my 'organization' entirely so that I can't sell tho they'er competitors.

''Good doing business with you.''

I started using my top notch persuasive skills to get more customers.

''ORE'S FOR SALE, NORMAL QUALITY IRON ORE PERFECT TO LEVEL YOUR BLACK SMITING SUB-JOB!!''

''ORE'S FOR SALE, NORMAL QUALITY IRON ORE PERFECT TO LEVEL YOUR BLACK SMITING SUB-JOB!!''

I didn't realize that people tot the 'normal quality' I mentioned was referring to low quality instead of normal quality.

3 minutes later no one came. F..k what happend it was going so well.

As I was pitting my self the guy that both the first two pieces came walking towards me.

''I likes you produced how many more do you have?''

I knew it, good stuff is always easy to sell.

''just got 48 left now.''

''I'll take them all for 4 silver.''

''These are top quality goods, let's make it 4 silver and 60 copper.''

''Are these top quality I tot these were normal quality, so let's go whit 4 silver 30 copper.''

''Deal.''

''let's ad each other as friend, call me if you have more good stuff.''

Had to sell at a discount but at least I got a regular client out of it.

''I'm Dwarf, what is your name?''

''lion tamer.''

After accepting the friend invitation lion looked relieved, it seams he was afraid I would decline.

''To tell you the truth I wasn't buying them for my self but a guild me and my budy are trying to create.''

Didn't expect that. Another patient with protagonist syndrome, he looked like quite a good client but can't win them all I guess.

''What is with that look.''

Guess I was chowing my totes.

''Nothing. Are you and your friend going to try and compete withe those big guilds too?''

I realy hope I diagnose him wrongly or the discount I gave him will have be for noting. Not gone risk doing business whit one of those people, it's just a mater of time until the overestimate them selves and offend somebody they shouldn't have, and i'm no gone be dragged down by them.

''I see. You have seen them to, those i'm gone be the king of the new era, 8 grade syndrome, Chuunibyou guys.''

''Yes, I tot you were one of them for a moment there.''

''Don't worry i'm not but I have seen a couple around the village. Rumor has it that the big guilds have bin banding any of they'er members that has got it. Idiots acting like they are the shit.''

''Let's not talk about those guys. You were saying something about your guild.''

Come on, you got me so exited now you can't leave me hanging.
