Chapter 316: Polypoch
When the caravan entered the city, Jia Zhengjin immediately arranged for them to go to the vacant residential area.
The leader of the caravan commanded his companions to unload the goods, and then temporarily placed the money and horses in the stables.
"Your City Lord is really young! I don't know how to call him?" After handling everything, the caravan leader asked respectfully.
"My name is Keen!" Jia Zhengjin replied.
"So it's Lord Keen!" The caravan leader bowed, "I am a member of the Mambola Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Salvis, and my full name is Polipoch Zagula Bertrand Russell. You can call me directly Just Boripoch!"
"Polipoch?" Jia Zhengjin wanted to laugh when he heard the name, "Where are you going?"
"Our caravan is going to the Boman Kingdom in the north, and import a batch of honeydew melons unique to the Boman Kingdom back to Salvis." Polipoch replied.
"Honeyed melon?" Jia Zhengjin heard this name for the first time, "What is that? Fruit?"
"Yes!" Bolipoch hurriedly fumbled for a paper bag from the cloth bag he was carrying, and presented it to Jia Zhengjin with respectful hands, "This is a dried fruit made of honeydew melon, which is very popular among our people! Because the Salvis Kingdom is located in a severely cold place, it is almost impossible to grow any fruits and vegetables, and can only rely on hunting and farming for a living. Therefore, all the fruits and vegetables need to be purchased through caravans from all over the world."
"So that's it!" Jia Zhengjin took a piece of honeydew melon and found that it looked like a dried radish. I put it in my mouth and took a bite, frowning and chewing a few times.
"Master Keen, what do you think?" Polipoch asked him expectantly, "Is honeydew melon delicious?"
"Hmm~~" Jia Zhengjin savored carefully, frowning the whole time, and finally shook his head, "To be honest, the taste is just so-so! The name is honeydew melon, I thought it would be very sweet! I didn't expect the sweetness Just a little bit..."
"Really? Lord Keen, I'm sorry!" Polipoch was very puzzled, so he reached out and took a piece into his mouth, "It's very sweet!"
Seeing him say sweet, Jia Zhengjin was confused. Could it be that I just ate a piece of non-sweet one? So I tried to take another piece and put it in my mouth. The result is still very light: "Your taste is so strange."
"Master Keen, you have eaten too many good things, right?" Polipoch said in confusion.
"What's the price of this honeydew melon?" Jia Zhengjin asked curiously.
"When we went to the Boman Kingdom, we bought them at the price of 1 silver coin each, and then returned to Salvis and sold them at the price of 3 silver coins each!" Polipoch did not hide anything, and answered whatever he asked.
"The purchase price is 1 silver coin, which is quite expensive!" Jia Zhengjin was a little surprised, probably the common people would not be willing to buy it, right? Sell 3 silver coins!
"For our Salvis Kingdom, the price is already very fair!" Polipoch replied, "You have never been to our Salvis, so you cannot understand the needs of our people for vegetables and fruits!"
"That's true," Jia Zhengjin nodded, "Rare things are more expensive! Then what are you going to bring to the Boman Kingdom for sale this time?"
"What our Chamber of Commerce launched this year is the Eternal Rose!" Polipoch replied.
"Eternal Rose? What is that?" Jia Zhengjin became curious, "Can you let me see it?"
"Of course! Master Keen, please wait a moment." Polipoch immediately turned and returned to his temporary residence, and quickly took out a beautifully packaged small red wooden box.
Coming to Jia Zhengjin, he carefully opened the small wooden box and slowly held it out with both hands.
Jia Zhengjin glanced at it casually, and found that inside the box was a crystal-clear artificial rose that looked a lot like crystal. He reached out his hand and took it out curiously, scaring Polypoch in a hurry, lest he accidentally drop the flower to the ground.
[Ice Sculpture Rose] A special product of the Salvis Kingdom, it uses ice and snow to create the appearance of a rose, and then uses a unique magic to make it never melt, so it is named the Eternal Rose! It is the favorite collection of girls from all over the world.
Seeing the introduction, Jia Zhengjin was disappointed. I thought it was a good thing, but it turned out to be a processed ice sculpture. So he put it back into the box, looked at Polipoch who was nervously checking whether the rose was damaged, and said, "Are there any other products?"
"Not for the time being!" Polypoch was relieved to find that the Eternal Rose was not damaged, "All the ones we pulled over this time were all Eternal Roses!"
"Hey~" Jia Zhengjin was even more disappointed, "Just this ice sculpture, can it really be sold for money?"
"My lord Keen doesn't know that this eternal rose is a special product of our country, and it is very popular in all countries!" Polipoch said confidently, "I don't think I have enough of this cart! It's just this one , can be sold for 5 gold coins!"
"Hey, how much does that cost?" Jia Zhengjin asked curiously.
"This..." Although Polipoch knew everything, there were some things he couldn't say, or didn't want to say.
Seeing his embarrassed look, Jia Zhengjin shrugged and said, "Forget it! I just asked casually. I thought I could buy some useful things, hey~"
"Master Keen, forgive me! Next time, how about I bring you other goods?" Polipoch said hurriedly, "Just tell me what you want!"
"Oh? I like to collect some strange things, preferably ones that have never been seen or heard of!" Jia Zhengjin thought for a while, "or things that are very difficult to obtain, such as monsters, monster eggs, monsters, etc. Nuclear or something!"
"Eh~" Polipoch was dumbfounded when he heard this, "Master Keen, you are talking about things that have a price but no market, and you can't buy them anywhere! Monsters and eggs of monsters are different things. It is only possible for a big country to use its national power to capture it. It must be used for military purposes, and it is impossible to sell it! And magic cores and the like can only be obtained by those top-level existences, such as some empires. Strong generals, or some hidden masters. It is impossible for them to sell their magic cores, and they are mostly used as gifts for important people."
"Oh? I see..." Jia Zhengjin nodded.
"Master Keen!" As he was speaking, he suddenly heard someone greet him behind him. Turning around, I saw many city residents pulling watermelons and grapes out of the inner city with wooden carts.
"Hi everyone!" Jia Zhengjin responded with a smile, "Why are you going?"
"The warehouses and ice cellars are full again, so we are going to bring these fruits to the barracks to comfort the soldiers defending the Holy Dragon City!" The city residents replied happily, their faces full of satisfaction.
"Oh, then you go!" Jia Zhengjin nodded with a smile, and stepped aside a little.
"Wait!" Unexpectedly, Polipoch rushed to the car, "What kind of fruit is this? Can you let me see it?"
"Please, please!" Although the townspeople didn't know who he was, they agreed politely.
