Chapter 172 -  Chapter 172 The Deal

Is there a place to rest in the territory? It seems not for the time being; you can only rest at the Peace Hotel.

However, this also reminded Ed that he should consider building a place to rest and perhaps a five-star hotel in the future.

no...

He couldn't handle too many stars; he wasn't a pro, much less a master. He could only manage to run a hotel.

"Lord Edd, let's hurry up and go make the trade!" The middle-aged centaur had been out for a while, and he wanted to get back while the weather was still quite cold. He was afraid that if he was delayed for too long, it would affect the sale of the gloves.

"Okay, Mr. Ma Sike, the transaction place is right next door, let's just go there."

Ed knew they were probably in a hurry, just like when he first went to Scarborough Fair.

"Thank you, Lord Ed, but may I buy some bread and other food for the journey? Your black bread is delicious."

Hearing the boss's words, the others nodded in agreement. This black bread was really delicious, and at one copper coin a loaf, it was such a good deal. It was so much better than the bread they had back home.

They didn't know there were also two copper coins each, and wheat bread; they couldn't read. The middle-aged man, however, politely declined the more expensive items.

"Of course, Mr. Ma Si Ke, do you need any copper dragon coins? I can lend you some."

"No need, no need, Carly already gave me some bronze dragon coins."

The middle-aged man, Ma Si Ke, now understood the benefits of the bronze dragon coin. The bronze coins he brought were useless, so he would try to bring some silver coins next time. He should be able to make some money by exchanging the items this time.

Before long, the group arrived at the all-inclusive department store next door. As soon as they entered, the middle-aged man Ma Shike was shocked again. The shelves were filled with gloves, money bags, shoes, all kinds of farm tools, all kinds of clothes, and everything else.

However, he could only be shocked for a moment. After discussing the price of salt with Ed, the middle-aged man tore open the shell and got a large bag of bronze dragon coins.

"Lord Ed, besides salt, what else do you need here?"

The middle-aged man, Ma Si Ke, was already planning what to bring next time. He had brought so much salt this time that there shouldn't be a shortage of salt here for a while.

Bringing him things that are cheaper here than they are there will allow him to earn more, won't it?

Ed glanced at the middle-aged centaur tearing its shell and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up. "Good question, I'm lacking everything here."

"Mr. Ma Sike, I need everything here: food ingredients, all kinds of seeds, all kinds of minerals, whether you recognize them or not, you can bring them over. I will buy anything I think is worthwhile."

"Yes, Lord Ed, I will come over as soon as I get back."

The middle-aged man, Ma Si Ke, had just taken a quick look at the items here. Apart from the gloves, the shoes and money bags were all quite nice. He knew he wouldn't be able to buy much with his copper dragon coins, as the prices weren't cheap. However, he had already calculated that he could make a hefty profit from the gloves once they reached their territory.

He couldn't calculate the price of the purse and shoes since there was no price comparison available. He decided to buy more gloves first and less of the other items, and then see how they sold there.

As for other iron items and clothing, although they look very exquisite, they are not easy to transport. We'll deal with that when I have my own horse again.

Having decided what to buy, the middle-aged man tore open the bag and started shopping. Soon, the large bag of bronze dragon coins was empty, and even the ones Carly had given him were gone.

After completing their purchases, the middle-aged man grinned from ear to ear, looking at the items on the cart with great satisfaction.

He felt that he only needed to make two more trips to buy the horse, which would be much faster.

He glanced at Carly without even realizing it; she was a really nice girl, and the more he looked at her, the more satisfied he became.

"Carly, do you want to come back with me?"
