A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 508 Change of Face
"I can't tell the power, but the diameter of the explosion is quite different. Is this what they call the best explosive?"

With the effect of visualizing the explosion range, Leon intuitively discovered the difference between the dwarf's cherry bomb and the cherry bomb produced by the system, and also understood why the dwarf's bomb was so cheap.

It's obvious that corners were cut here.

But a bomb is a bomb. As long as it can explode and destroy the stone ore layer, it is a good bomb.

Lyon was really tempted by such a cheap price, especially the 200G price tag of the super bomb, which made Lyon even more restless.

After all, he had just received a huge sum of 50WG. If he had collected the dwarven scrolls earlier to unlock the dwarven language, and traded with the dwarves to buy enough super bombs, he would not have had to stay in the mine for three consecutive days.

Taking the elevator directly to the surface, Leon once again visited the cave where the dwarf was. This time, the dwarf did not use the dagger to press against Leon's knees, but sat quietly on a chair near the rock wall, playing with two ordinary crystal balls in his hands.

"Human, are you satisfied with the effect of the bomb?" The dwarf asked first when he saw Leon appear again.

"I'm not satisfied. It's much worse than my bomb." Leon shook his head and said to the dwarf. Then he took out the cherry bomb he made and handed it to the dwarf to verify that he was not bragging.

"Such a sleek appearance, the same size, yet weighing more than half as much as ours. Your craftsmanship is truly remarkable. I never realized you're such a master craftsman."

Seeing the bomb that Leon took out, the dwarf immediately held it in his hand and examined it. After a moment, the dwarf had to admit that what Leon said was true. His bomb was much better than his own.

Even without the explosion experiment, the dwarf knew the result of the comparison from the bomb-making process. He did have a good eye in this aspect.

"Let's not talk about whether the craftsman is good or not. I'm actually quite interested in your super bombs. If I buy in bulk, are there any preferential policies?"

Seeing the dwarves so readily admitting that they were more skilled, Lyon felt that this ethnic group was quite honest and sincere. So when doing business, he didn't need to worry too much about being maliciously exploited.

"How many do you want to buy?" The dwarf was stunned when he heard that Lyon had such excellent bomb-making technology and was planning to buy bombs from him, but of course he would not refuse a business that was delivered to his doorstep.

"Let's talk about the preferential policies first." Lyon did not directly state his purchasing goals. After all, he himself was not sure.

"If the quantity is large, I can give you some gifts, but the price will not be discounted." The dwarf replied immediately.

"For example, if you buy ten super bombs, I'll give you one regular bomb and two cherry bombs. Or, if you don't give me a bomb, I can give you a lava crystal ball. Five super bombs, and one lava crystal ball."

"Is this how you non-human intelligent races do business? You don't bargain, but you like to give gifts." After hearing the dwarf's answer, Leon couldn't help but complain, because the dwarf's way of doing business reminded him of Krobus.

"It seems that you have also traded with other races. Then you should know that we who do business strictly abide by the price list rules specified by the Far Traveling Chamber of Commerce, right?" The dwarf looked at Leon in confusion and asked.

"I know, just a few random complaints." Although he really didn't know about the existence of this thing, Lyon didn't intend to tell the dwarf the truth. After all, the dwarf didn't trust him before, so how could Lyon still trust the dwarf?

Leon remembered one thing clearly: the ignorant always lose in business. "So, how many super bombs do you plan to buy?" The dwarf didn't continue the conversation on this point, redirecting the conversation back to the transaction itself.

"One hundred, but I need you to give me 30 magma crystal balls." Lyon gave his purchasing goals and requirements.

"30 magma crystal balls are too many. We can't give them away." The dwarf immediately shook his head and refused when he heard that.

"Are you sure? After all, this isn't a small order. 100 super bombs is 2WG. For dwarves like you who spend every day in the mines, you shouldn't be short of crystal balls, right? And you don't seem to have any desire to open them, or perhaps you lack the means to do so, so you chose to give them away as gifts.

Is it really necessary to be so stingy about a gift that is not precious to you and has little practical value?"

Leon asked the dwarf with a smile. The dwarf's opinion of the crystal ball revealed in every word made the dwarf shrink his neck and speak.

"It seems you know a lot about dwarves. Okay, I agree to the gift of thirty lava crystal balls, but you need to pay the full 2WG fee in one lump sum."

"You guessed it right." Lyon was delighted and secretly sighed that his reasoning ability was still so strong. At the same time, there was no expression on his face as he said to the dwarf.

"I can pay in full at once, but your super bombs and crystal balls also need to be delivered at once. I don't want to wait. If you want to wait, that's fine. But if you wait for one day, you'll have to pay for two more lava crystal balls."

"I can deliver all the items at once, but can you take them away?" The dwarf looked at Leon and didn't believe that Leon could take away so many bombs and crystal balls.

"I have my own way. By the way, can you accept credit cards here?" Lyon smiled without explaining. He then took out the gift card provided by the Far Travel Chamber of Commerce and showed it to the dwarf and asked.

"A membership card of the Far Traveling Chamber of Commerce! My apologies, dear member, if I had known you were the holder of this card, I wouldn't have suspected you."

The moment he saw the card, the dwarf jumped down from his chair, stood in front of Leon properly and bowed slightly. The change in polite attitude made Leon a little confused.

"So, can you pay?"

Although he was shocked by the swift change in the dwarf's attitude and the extraordinary significance of this card, Leon still did not forget the deal with the dwarf.

"And you don't need to be so polite to me. My name is Leon, a farmer in Stardew Valley. You can just call me by my name from now on."

"As you wish, Mr. Lyon." The dwarf nodded at Lyon. He was quite happy with Lyon's humility. After all, it was the first time he saw such a low-key membership card holder.

"If you have this card, of course you can make purchases. All you need to do is sign your name after receiving the bill. I will then pass it on to the Far Travel Chamber of Commerce, and we can withdraw the payment there."

As the dwarf said this, he ran to a box nearby and started searching.
