Chereads / The Mage of Eternity / Chapter 9 - Deal

Chapter 9 - Deal

Hanks rushed forward.

He arrived in front of An Kai.

Hanks looked around the four of them and said professionally, "It looks like they are Rank 1, Stage 1 warriors. They can be sold for three gold coins each.

"Whoa! There is also this good stuff, a rank 3 stage 1 Mage. This is rare and can be sold for ten gold coins!

"If converted to low-grade sorcerer's stones, you can exchange them for 15 pieces. I don't have enough on me, but you can follow me."

After Hanks made his bid, his face revealed a happy expression!

As expected of An Kai, that rascal!

Hanks could easily make a profit of 5 gold coins from this transaction!

Even in front of Widow Wang, he could stand up straight!

Reuniting with Hanks, An Kai was somewhat happy.

After all, in Unnamed Town, Hanks had the most interaction with him.

Of course, friendship was friendship, and business was business.

Even blood brothers had to settle accounts clearly, not to mention that they were not blood brothers.

"Hanks, forget about it. You can't afford this deal."

An Kai spoke slowly, pretending to be doing this for Hanks' sake.

Hanks was furious. As a second-hand trafficker, was he being doubted?!

He patted his chest and raised his voice. "I can't afford it? How big of a deal can you get? I, Hanks, can source hundreds of Sorcerer's Stones without even blinking!"

"Hundreds? You can really brag. Why didn't I see you brag so much back in the town?" An Kai did not buy it at all. He rubbed his nose and said disdainfully.

At this moment, Reid was a little flustered. From the words of these two people, he had become an object.

Who was this old man with thick eyebrows and big eyes?

He had to decide his own fate.

Reid was terrified. Being in Chaos City, he knew how miserable the fate of slaves was.

While the two of them were arguing until their faces turned red, Reid slowly said, "That…My lord. Let's go."

"Shut up!"

"Shut up!"

In an instant, Reid's words were met with Ankai and Hanks' roars in unison.

Hanks looked at the disdainful An Kai and frowned. "Brat, don't give me that nonsense. Just tell me what the deal is. A hundred low-grade stones is not a problem!"

"These four guys can be sold, but the price cannot be as you say."

Seeing this, An Kai stopped mocking him and spoke seriously.

Hearing An Kai's words, Hanks only frowned slightly and did not refute. They had dealt with each other many times. He knew that An Kai must have his own reasons for saying this.

Of course, this kid would definitely exaggerate this reason.

"The four of them are members of the Rewards Tower. The quota inside can be exchanged for about 100 low-grade sorcerer stones. Including their personal value, I'll sell them to you for a total of 110 low-grade stones!"

An Kai spoke unhurriedly, pretending to be in pain, and gave Hanks a discount of 5 low-grade stones.

Reid wanted to say that it wasn't that much, but when he saw the sword in An Kai's hand, he chose to remain silent.

Reid had never doubted that he would not be hacked to death if he exposed An Kai's lies.

Hanks' eyes lit up.

He didn't expect that four charred guys would have memberships in the Rewards Tower.

What An Kai said was true.

However, Hanks swore on Widow Wang's loyalty that An Kai must have lied about how many Stones four members could exchange for!

If you can't make a decision, cut it in half!

This was how Hanks handled his business.

He didn't even think and directly bargained, "55 low-grade stones, no more!"

"Deal!"

An Kai readily agreed, causing Hanks' heart to skip a beat. He knew.

He had been scammed.

Before An Kai made his bid, his bottom line was 40 low-grade stones.

To him, the risk of following Reid and the others to the Rewards Tower to exchange for the Sorcerer's Stone was rather high.

After all, the Rewards Tower was completely unknown to him.

He wasn't sure if there would be any accidents.

If someone was willing to take over, he was willing to suffer a little loss.

He did not expect that the final price would not only not be a loss, but it would also be a profit!

The four of them were worth 15 Stones. Adding on the 30 sorcerer stones that they could exchange for at the Rewards Tower, An Kai had earned a net profit of 10 sorcerer stones!

This was a huge sum of money!

As a qualified second-hand trafficker, even if he suffered a loss, he would not show it.

Hanks was expressionless as he calmly took the vines entangling the four from An Kai.

"Let's go home and get it. Your Sister Wang misses you too."

An Kai hesitated for a moment, but he still followed Hanks.

With the increase in his strength and his understanding of Hanks, he had the confidence to deal with some unexpected situations.

For example, Hanks wanted to take revenge.

Pulling Reid's four men, Hanks walked in front. He passed by his stall and quickly packed up.

He glanced at An Kai and saw the ring on his finger.

After sighing in his heart, he reminded, "Don't wear it on your hand."

An Kai, who was following behind, was stunned. Then, he reacted and pulled out a thin branch from the vine that bound Reid and the other three.

Then, he strung up the storage ring and wore it on his chest.

Walking behind, An Kai's trust in Hanks increased a little.

At Chaos City, the streets paved with green bricks were spotless.

According to Hanks, the Chaos City Leader was a clean freak and couldn't stand dirty things.

If someone tried to trick the City Lord, the City Lord would torture him.

If the punishment were light, he would be permanently disabled and lose a layer of skin. If it were serious, he would lose his life.

Between losing their lives and staying clean, the residents of the city chose to stay clean.

As they walked on the street, Reid and the other three muttered in their hearts.

They were also afraid that they would be too dirty and attract the attention of the City Lord, who was obsessed with cleanliness.

On both sides of the street, according to Hanks, there were houses and shops made of obsidian.

It was arranged neatly. This was a far cry from the image An Kai had imagined of a dirty and messy chaos city.

Hanks' residence was very close to the city gate, only about a minute away.

Hanks said that he did it for the convenience of his business, but according to the information of the houses that An Kai had observed, Hanks lived there for the sake of being cheap.

From this, it could be seen that Hanks' life did not seem to be easy.

When they returned to Hanks' house, Kai did not enter. This was his habit.

He would never enter an unfamiliar place.

Hanks did not insist. He returned home and took out 55 low-grade sorcerer's stones.

He had to use all his strength to hand them over to An Kai!

Widow Wang also followed him out and asked about the situation in the Unnamed Town. An Kai casually replied that he had never gone back.

Then, he rejected Widow Wang and the reluctant Hanks 'request to stay for dinner.

He turned around and walked away from chaos city.

[Skill Points +55.]

Before they left, Hanks told An Kai that if he wanted to find some work to earn Sorcerer's Stones, he could come to him.

An Kai nodded. In his heart, he estimated that the next time they met would be in a year or two.

His destination was his secret base.

Staying in Chaos City, there would be unexpected problems.

Three days later.

An Kai arrived at his second secret base in the desert.
