"Excuse me sir, I have got some items with me that I would like to sell. Do you know a place that I could go to sell them ?" asked Keith with a curious expression on his face.
"Oh sure, you could either go to the guild, which is located three buildings behind my food stall, to sell them, but for that you will have to be a member of the guild," said the old man as he began to give Keith another option to choose from.
"Or you could go to Olav's trading store, which is located three buildings down across the street, to sell them," continued the old man in a knowledgeable tone.
"Okay thank you for your help," said Keith as he started to walk towards the trading store, which is located three buildings down across the street.
...
Charlotte watched as the slightly handsome male, named Keith, walk away and a small smile formed on her beautiful face.
The old man looked at his granddaughter's expression and a huge smile formed on his wrinkled face.
"My my, what do we have here. Is the shy princess in love ?" asked the old man with a teasing tone which made Charlotte to flush red in embarrassment.
She quickly covered her face with her dainty hands and then she refuted all of her grandfather's claim.
"No ! It is not like that !" exclaimed Charlotte with a flustered tone which caused the old man to laugh and tease her further.
"Hahaha. Oh really, then why are you blushing ?" asked the old man with a mischievous smile on his wrinkled face which further caused Charlotte's face to flush a redder colour as she became redder than a tomato.
...
While the granddaughter and grandfather duo where busy with their playful banter, Keith continued to walk towards the trading store.
He arrived at the above mentioned store and then he looked at the building.
It was decently sized on the outside. It has light brown painted thick concrete walls with two huge and clear windows that displayed the interior of the trading store.
The was a huge billboard hanging on top of the wall which had the name of the store written on it with a huge black bold font on it.
Keith looked at the billboard and then he read the name of the trading store which read [Olav's Trading Store].
After looking at the exterior of the trading store, Keith entered the store and then he looked around at the interior.
The building may look decently sized on the outside but man was it huge on the inside. It had huge shelves and racks which held and displayed a lot of varieties of weapons. Short swords, long swords, spears, scythes, bows and arrows, shields, gauntlets, helms, you name it, it was all there.
Not to mention when he looked to the counter, he saw a display case which displayed a lot of accessories. Amulets, rings, gemstones and other types of accessories.This store was just amazing as it had everything.
Keith then made his way to the counter where he saw a middle aged man with a heavy moustache and a beer belly stood with a smile on his face while he was looking at Keith.
"Good morning sir, I have items that I would like to sell," said Keith as he reached the counter and cut straight to the chase without using up much of his time on pleasantries.
"Oh sure, follow me to the back," the middle aged man with a beer belly, named Olav.
"Cindy, please come and take care of the counter," said the middle aged man as he called out to a young woman with a curves that could make any man drool.
She has slightly light brown hair with emerald green eyes and a slightly pointed chin. Her nose was small and her lips were red and very plump.
She was wearing a short pant that highlighted her curves and her ass. She was also wearing a shirt that hugged her upper body tightly and made her chest stand out.
Cindy made her way to the counter and flashed a flirtatious smile at Keith as she passed by him.
Keith was stunned into silence as he looked at Cindy's figure go past him. But then he was removed from his stupor by the middle aged man who called out to him.
"Young man, this way please," called out the middle aged man as he neared the back door in front of him.
Keith quickly caught up to the middle aged man and entered the back room with the middle aged man and was surprised at the large place. It was very luxurious looking and the walls were painted with a dark red paint and had some gold embroidery made with gold paint on the red paint.
"So what items would you like to sell ?" asked the middle aged man with a beer belly and a small smile on his face.
"Oh right, here they are," said Keith as he pulled out the items from his Item Box and then he placed them onto the ground.
"Oh this is quite the collection you have here young man," said the old man with a satisfied expression on his face.
"Where did you get them ?" asked the middle aged man with a curious expression on his face as he placed a finger onto his double chin.
"I got them by killing some monsters in [The Dark Forest] while I was hunting yesterday," replied Keith as he lied to the old man about going to the forest to hunt.
But he was telling the truth about getting the items from the monsters which he had killed. They were drop items which could be earned from killing the monsters in [The Dark Forest].
"Oh really ... wait what ?! You went to [The Dark Forest] yesterday ? At such a young age ?" asked the middle aged man with a surprised expression on his face as sweat trickled down his forehead.
"Yes," replied Keith with a indifferent tone in his voice.
He knew how dangerous [The Dark Forest] was but he had to take the risk because he had to go and get the items from the forest yesterday.
And fortunately for Keith, he did not meet any powerful monsters while he was there so it was a win for him.
He got the overpowered cheat skills and weapon and also got some experience and he even increased his level. Not only that, but he also got some items from killing the monsters in the forest.
At first, he was slightly worried about where he was going to get money to survive, but luckily for him, the Gods themselves blessed him with the drop items from the monsters he had killed so that he could go and sell them and receive some money to be able to survive from not being able to pay for his living expenses.
"Oh, so I have got a deal for you," said the middle aged man with an evil smile on his face which caused Keith to narrow his eyes at him as he look at him suspiciously.
"You will not regret it !" said the middle aged man as he saw that Keith was looking at him with suspicion in his eyes.
"Go on, I am listening," said Keith as he sighed heavily and looked at the middle aged man who seemed to lighten up when he saw the young boy show interest at the deal he has come up with.
"So listen, you go out to [The Dark Forest] and kill the monsters and bring back the drop items to me. And then I will sell them to my customers at double the price ! Then you get fifty five percent of the profits while I get forty five percent of the profits. What do think ?" asked the middle aged man as he gave Keith his proposal for splitting the gains of the drop items that Keith was going to get from killing the monsters in [The Dark Forest].
Keith began to ponder about the deal he was given. He was planning on going to [The Dark Forest] everyday to train and most of the time his training would demand that he fights and kills some monsters.
So he was going to have an abundance of drop items that he could sell, so all that was good but then an idea came to his mind which was to negotiate for a higher share in the profits.
"Sixty percent," said Keith with a flat tone and a poker face to show that he was serious.
"What ?" asked the middle aged man with a confused expression on his face.
"I want sixty percent of the profits," said Keith with a flat tone and a poker face to show that he was not planning on backing down.
"But sixty percent is just too mu-," was all the middle aged man was able to get out of his mouth before he got cut off by Keith.
"Take it or leave it," said Keith with a flat tone as he started to pick his items up so that he could place them back into his Item Box but he was stopped by the middle aged man as he finally gave in to Keith's demands.
"Wait, fine. You will get sixty percent of the profits," said the middle aged man as he stopped Keith from packing his items away.
"Pleasure doing business with you," said Keith as he placed his items back onto the floor and shaked hands with the middle aged man.
