Chapter 83 The Way to Burn Money
After the person in charge left, Xifa walked into the hall by himself. At this moment, he heard a beautiful violin sound, which seemed to bring back some memories, and he couldn't help but feel mixed feelings.
He followed the sound, and at the corner of the hall, beside a oriel window, under the crimson moonlight, someone was leaning against the wall and playing a violin.
It was a middle-aged man in his early forties. His blond hair was neither long nor short. He closed his eyes, as if he was intoxicated by the sound of his piano.
His violin was dark and deep black as a whole, as if the deepest night sky had been picked off, and then covered on this violin.
From time to time, the surface of the violin shone with little light, like stars. I don't know whether it is the refraction of the lights in the hall or the extraordinary material.
As if sensing Sifa's gaze, the blond man opened his eyes. He had a pair of brown eyes, and smiled kindly at Sifa, and then continued to play. (Note 1)
Xifa looked away, came to the bar, and saw the so-called 'Mr. Parker'.
Mr. Parker is no longer young, his cheek muscles are loose and drooping, the corners of his eyes are covered with deep lines, his mouth is pursed, and he smiles seriously.
Xifa's purpose in coming to the Elk Tavern was for extraordinary materials. Now that he knew that the club had a trading house, he asked directly.
"I want to buy something."
Mr. Parker glanced at him, took out a notebook and said: "You need to pay a query fee of 10 pounds first, and the fee will not be refunded, but there is no need to pay similar fees in the future."
Although Xifa said he was rich, he was quite moved when he heard that it would cost 10 pounds just to make an inquiry, even if he didn't need to charge extra in the future.
Sure enough, it is very profitable to be a platform, and the more upscale the place looks, the more fees will be charged.
In comparison, the Dragon Bar is too conscientious, at least there is no charge for inquiries.
The thoughts in his heart were like bubbles surfacing, popping up one after another, but Xifa still took out a large denomination gold pound and put it on the table.
"Hopefully there will be something I want." He looked at Mr. Parker.
The old man didn't respond and showed no expression. He just took out a notebook with a black cover, opened it, turned to one of the pages, and handed it to Xifa.
"This is the item in the transaction line in the last week. You can see the detailed information yourself."
The service is really bad!
Xifa complained, took the notebook and looked at it.
The first item turned out to be a 'high-pressure steam rifle', which is a military controlled product! The club even dared to trade this kind of thing, so they probably wouldn't dare to touch this kind of thing without any military friendship.
Xifa continued to scroll back, and saw magical items, spells, and extraordinary materials. When he turned to the sixth page, there was a piece of 'dragon blood piranha rhizome' written in the inventory.
The remaining main ingredients of the potion formula are here!
Xifa quickly looked at the price column, fortunately, it was only 200 pounds. And the seller also agreed to exchange it with 'the complete pituitary gland of the colorful lizard dragon', or 'the solid unicorn crystal of the earth rhinoceros'.
This is the last item.
Generally speaking, there are not many commodities in the trading house, much less than that in the Dragon Bar. However, there are various types of goods, which are more abundant than the Dragon Bar.
Closing the notebook, Xifa said in a deep voice, "I've taken a fancy to one of them, how do I trade it?"
Mr. Parker took out a ledger: "We only accept cash transactions, no credit, no loans."
"We provide information confidentiality services for both parties to the transaction without additional charges. If it is the seller, we will charge a 5% handling fee after the transaction is successful."
"As for the buyer, there is no choice but to pay any additional costs."
"So, what is the product number you fancy?"
Every item on the trading line has a serial number, and Xifa quickly reported a set of numbers, and took out 200 pounds and put them on the table.
The old man took it, and after recording for a while, he left through a small black door behind the bar. When he returned to the bar a while later, he put a beautiful iron box on the table.
Xifa opened the box, and there was indeed a piece of blood-red plant root inside.
Calculated in this way, only the midsummer grass powder is left as the formula material, which is not available in the club's trading house, so I can only go to the Dragon Bar to try my luck.
Xifa put away the box, and said again: "What's the mission recently? Quest inquiry, no charge?"
Recalling that Tingen hadn't arrived a week before, he first paid for Kyle's wife's hospitalization and treatment expenses. Coupled with the spending on extraordinary materials these days, almost 900 pounds have already been spent.
900 pounds can buy a house in Tingen, the one with permanent use rights.
Although the location and house type, it should be just a townhouse like Narcissus Street
Seeing that he had spent nearly a thousand pounds on his property in just a few days, Xifa sincerely lamented that the path of extraordinary is really a waste of money.
He decided to come next time and sell the few extra supernatural materials in the trading house. Plus, find a way to make money!
"There is no charge for task inquiries."
The old man's voice brought Xifa back to his senses, and Mr. Parker took out another red notebook and flipped through it.
"Given your hunter level, this is the current mission that suits you."
"Investigate the 'Sea Serpent Party'."
"The targets of the investigation include the other party's headquarters, the number of personnel, the details of important members and leaders, etc."
"The client will give corresponding remuneration according to the value of the investigation report. The minimum remuneration is 5 pounds, and the maximum is 50 pounds."
"There is no limit to the effective time of the entrustment, and the entrustment will be valid until the entrustor wishes to end."
"The clues that the client can provide are: the place where this gang is active is the dock, and most of their personnel are dressed as dock workers and sailors. The Sea Serpent Party only appeared in the past two years. They quickly occupied the dock area and engaged in various illegal activities. activities, including but not limited to smuggling, smuggling, providing false documents and other transactions.”
After finishing speaking, Mr. Parker closed his notebook and looked at Xifa: "The above are the details of the mission. Do you want to accept this commission?"
Xifa nodded. Firstly, as a hunter, if he doesn't accept the job, it will inevitably attract suspicion; secondly, he also wants to use these commissions to digest the potion through hunter activities. Of course, this is a later story.
The old man quickly took notes in his notebook: "Currently, there are two other hunters accepting the entrustment besides you."
"In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding, I will report your information to the other two. Of course, I will also tell you the corresponding information."
He took out a document from the cabinet under the bar and pushed it to Xifa: "This is the information of two colleagues, you can read it."
Xifa didn't look at it right away, but asked, "Will my level increase after completing this commission?"
Mr. Parker's lips, which had been tightly pursed, loosened a little at this moment, and gradually turned up, but soon stopped: "For the same mission, you need to complete at least two more before you can increase your hunter level."
"so slow?"
Xifa frowned slightly under the mask. He didn't want to take on these investigation missions all the time. Such missions didn't make much money, and they probably didn't help much in digesting the potion.
He changed his thinking: "Since the client wants to investigate the Sea Serpent Party, it means that he doesn't have a good impression of this gang, and even wants it to be destroyed. If, I mean, if, if I let this gang disappear, it should be possible to raise the level?"
