Chapter 193 - Kickback!
“What is it?”
“I want to buy another batch of rare high-grade ores.”
“No problem. Please follow me.”
Tully generously led Lorne to the nearby warehouse and said, “I wonder which ore you need?”
“Star Patterned Iron,” Lorne said.
“Star Patterned Iron is the main material for casting magic cannons. Most of the Star Patterned Iron is only mixed in other types of mineral veins. It is very difficult to mine.”
Tully opened the panel of the warehouse, pulled out a sample of the Star Patterned Iron, and sent it to Lorne.
On Lorne’s mission panel, there was a notification of a mission item. He immediately asked happily, “How much does a unit of Star Patterned Iron cost?”
“Please allow me to ask, are you buying it for yourself?”
As expected of an experienced businessman, he immediately saw the problem.
“No.”
Lorne shook his head, “The situation is like this. Recently, Iron Skull City has detected that there are minions of the Dark faction wandering in the ruins of the war. They want to resurrect the dragon corpses inside, which is a huge threat to all lives in the Iron Skull City. Therefore, Iron Skull City has decided to send the army to clean up the ruins of the war. However, because of the sudden incident, it is difficult to supply their equipment. Therefore, I would like to ask you to sell a portion of the rare ores and let Iron Skull City urgently forge equipment to support the army’s crusade.”
“I see…”
“Alright, we normally don’t sell these ores, but since it’s a request from you, we are also willing to contribute to the peace and stability of the continent.”
“Regarding the price of the Star Patterned Iron, for the sake of our partner, we will only charge 4.5 gold coins per piece. However, we have a request. This batch of ores must be bought by you in your own name.”
Tully looked earnestly at Lorne, who brightened and silently gave him a thumbs-up.
“No problem.”
It had to be said that Tully was really cunning. Not only did he directly guess Lorne’s purpose in buying the ores, but he also guessed the highest price Iron Skull City gave him.
Finally, and most importantly, he made a request that Lorne had to buy it in his own name!
Perhaps many people did not understand the meaning of this action, but as long as they were businessmen, they could tell at a glance.
Tully’s request to trade in the name of Lorne meant that the ores had to go through Lorne. Then, there was a possibility that he could operate as a middleman of the two partners.
For example, the highest price that Iron Skull City offered was 5 gold coins to buy a unit of ore. Lorne could directly quote them the highest price even though the gnomes sold them at 4.5 gold coins. Lorne could obtain 0.5 gold coins per unit of profit in this transaction!
One had to know that the ore requirement for Iron Skull City this time was a total of 100,000 units!
If he calculated it all, Lorne could obtain 50,000 gold coins from the deal!
Was there anything more comfortable than free money in this world?
…
Then, the two discussed the details of the cooperation in detail.
In the end, Lorne obtained the order for 100,000 Star Patterned Iron Ores and wrote a reply to Iron Skull City. The general opinion was that they only trusted Lorne and needed him to trade.
With this letter, it basically confirmed Lorne’s benefits.
Moreover, Tully generously let Lorne take the ores away first, because with the ores around, he was not worried that there would be a problem with the trading of these ores.
“Adventurer, our mining team and airship are ready. Are you coming with us to the ruins of the war, or are you returning to Iron Skull City?”
“Let’s go to the ruins of the war. It’s a good opportunity for me to see your airship.”
“I would love to. Please follow me.”
Following Tully through the city, Lorne finally arrived at a huge square. In front of him were countless gnome miners and a huge oval object.
This was the gnome’s airship. It was very huge. Its entire length was more than a thousand meters, and its total height was nearly a hundred meters. Such a size was about the size of an aircraft carrier. It was a true behemoth.
From afar, one could see a huge oval airbag above the airship. It was very similar to the airship in modern history. The only difference between the two was the main engine.
In reality, airships flew by helium, and the airships built by the gnomes relied on a huge magic circle to release special gases.
There was a magic unit at the tail that provided the lift. It was designed to provide the airship with the impetus to move forward.
Under the airship was a huge cabin. It was constructed from high-grade wood and had a lighter weight, increased hardness, and greater tenacity.
After everyone stepped into the airship, Tully held a condensed energy crystal and placed it on the center platform of the command platform. In the next moment, all the magic circles on the airship lit up.
Then, the airship slowly rose until it was two thousand meters high. Only then did it begin to move forward.
“Warrior, this is the crystallization of our gnome technology. This is a ‘Mol-class’ airship, a medium-sized one. It can carry tens of thousands of people and a large amount of equipment at once.”
Tully proudly introduced this to Lorne.
“Knowledge is power…”
Even if Lorne was a modern person, he was still amazed. After all, this was a world of swords and magic. It was incredible that the gnomes could develop such technology.
However, ever since he saw the strength of the Abyss Rulers, Lorne had some thoughts that looked down on machinery.
Of course, he did not deny the power of technology. After all, not everyone could have the strength of the Abyss Ruler. Such a large machine that could determine the outcome of a war was worthy of recognition.
It was just that his dream was very far away. What he wanted to become was a god who surpassed the Abyss Rulers, an invincible existence who could surpass the world.
…
When the airship crossed countless areas and arrived at the Doomsday Forest, a group of players who were completing a mission there were all stunned.
“Gosh! Airplane!!”
“Bullsh*t plane. That’s clearly an airship.”
“That’s not right. Isn’t this a world of swords and magic? Why are there even airships?”
“Did I enter the wrong game?”
“It should be the work of the gnomes. In the background introduction given by the officials of the Divine Realm, it said that the gnomes will create machinery!”
“That’s true, but I can’t accept suddenly taking out an airship!”
“There’s probably a hidden mission. Brothers, anyone wants to follow me on this journey?”
“Brother, bring me along!”
