"Liquid metal? Sure, we have some, but I can't really go much lower with the current price. Recently, there was a boom of people stocking on it, so I would advise you to be cautious when investing in it."
Instead of going for the potentially best place to obtain this popular product, Fen decided that checking the closest shop that the guards pointed him at first would be a better idea. Even if he wouldn't end up buying anything, the young man could use this opportunity to learn a bit more about the local market.
"I see. What would be its price then?"
Given what the smith in front of the young man said, it would be hard to expect the tag as favourable as Fen's former coachman gave him. Apparently, the information about the profitability of this trade was already widely known, drastically lowering the chances of actually making money out of it.
"Right now? Ugh, I will take the loss but I could sell some for two and a half silver per piece."
