Super Magician: The Magic Network Collapsed Again at the Start

Chapter 62 I'm Just One Word Away from Being a Rich, Handsome, and Tall Man
"Can I take this much?" Anser smiled, his eyes crinkling. He handed the money bag to Blatt, gesturing for him to count it.

"Not much, not much." Teach breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that Anser was not dissatisfied. He had heard that this man was a bit petty and vindictive, so he really couldn't skimp on this money.

Compared to money, they valued Anser more. As the organization in Faerûn that loved to cause trouble, no one understood the importance of people better than them.

“Under the circumstances last night, we could only sell to the Magath family of Deepwater City. There were very few people in Silverscale Bay who dared to take it over. Although we lost a lot of money, there were no follow-up problems…” he added.

A normal medium-sized sailing ship can sell for several thousand gold coins. Although the Conch Ship was damaged, it still had so many muskets, cannons, and ammunition on board. Selling it for only five thousand six hundred gold coins is a huge loss.

However, if you try to contact the seller during the day, you may encounter many unexpected troubles and obstacles.

"I understand," Anser said with a smile.

“You left too early last night. The Magaster family’s deacon wanted to see you.” Teach took out a gold badge and placed it in front of him. “This is a badge of a high-ranking member of the Waterdeep City Noble Business Alliance that he asked me to give you.”

"What's the use of this?" Anser took the badge and noticed that "Ash Knight" and a number were engraved on the back. His lips twitched involuntarily.

“It can be used for buying and selling goods, making reservations, finding accommodation, taking boats… it has many functions.” Teach thought for a moment, then handed him a silver badge. “This is the Song Ring Alliance badge. It can be used to exchange information and such. You can keep it; you might find it useful.”

The Song Ring is an alliance of poets and adventurers that facilitates the exchange of news, stories, and music; it is an outer organization of the Harpists' Alliance.

"Thank you." Anser knew of a karaoke bar.

Instead of directly inviting him to join the league, Teach gave him a badge that made things easier, which was a very pleasant gesture.

"Don't mention it. If you need anything, you can go to the Song Ring Bar in the city and find the halfling owner. He can contact me."

"it is good."

Teach patted Anser on the shoulder, got up and left, his steps light and quick.

“I counted it twice, and it’s enough.” Blatt handed the money bag back to Anser, looking on with a sigh. “The Nashwar family is probably going to be furious.”

"Since I've already offended him, I don't care if he lives or dies." Anser poured all the money into the treasure pouch, then patted it with his hand, feeling completely at ease.

There are over three thousand gold coins in here, a huge sum of money that an ordinary worker couldn't earn in a lifetime.

Anyone carrying that much money in their pocket can't help but stand tall!
Besides, he still had a bunch of spoils to sell. Thinking of this, he urged everyone to eat quickly, as he might be leaving tomorrow. He had to get rid of everything today and see if there was anything good.

The three of them finished their meal quickly, returned to their room, packed their things, put them on Nornos's back, and headed straight for the Silverscale Trading Post.

Nornos was still wearing the same simple saddle. Yesterday, Clara used an Elf saddle, which wasn't quite right. For someone of Nornos's size, a custom-made saddle was necessary.

Silverscale Market is not far from Fishbone Wharf. Originally a market for trading bulk catches and commodities, it gradually evolved into a comprehensive trading area, and even major guilds moved in.

After entering through the north gate, they were greeted by a large open-air market selling everything imaginable: farm tools, fishing gear, crops, meat, medicinal herbs, pets...

There was even a labor market in the corner, where you could find any craftsmen or workers you wanted, and the prices were more than half off the usual price.

Anser and his companions were carrying firearms, weapons, equipment, and magical items, which they obviously couldn't sell here.

Further inside are rows of wooden houses selling a wide variety of items, all of which are quite expensive, such as artwork, fine jewelry, exquisite armor, weapons, and magical items.

Compared to the outside, this place is very deserted. Even though no one is stopping us, it's clearly divided, like two different worlds.

The three were unfamiliar with the area and it took them a while to find a wooden building with the Deepwater City flag flying over it.

“This is it.” Anser put the membership badge on his wrist conspicuously.

Nornos waited outside the door as several people carried a pile of things inside.

The waiter at the door caught a glimpse of the badge on Anser's wrist and gave a standard smile: "So you are a distinguished guest of the Magaster family. Please follow me to the second floor."

"Isn't this one?" Anser asked curiously. "Sir, this is the Deepwater City Noble Business Alliance, with seven shops belonging to different nobles..." The waiter was puzzled. There were only a few hundred gold membership badges, and the holders were all regular customers. How could they not know such basic common sense?

The group went up to the second floor, where they were greeted by spacious shops and a dazzling array of goods, mainly medicines and weapons. This was a bit strange, because the shop on the first floor also sold these items; they wondered how the shops balanced this competition internally.

Anser's gaze fell on the ceiling, where a huge noble coat of arms was painted on the roof, covering an area of ​​several tens of square meters. It was completely covered with oil paint, with a blue background, white sails, and silver swirling patterns. It was quite impressive.

'Impressive!' he thought to himself.

The shop had many employees, but not a single customer.

A middle-aged man with a mustache saw Anser and his eyes lit up. He ran over with small, quick steps.

"Good morning, gentlemen. I am Sidney, the manager of this shop. Yesterday, the butler said that we would have distinguished guests today. I never expected it to be Lord Anser."

"You know me?" Anser was surprised that a supervisor could recognize him by name so easily.

"First time meeting you, just guessing." Sidney's gaze lingered on Anser's face for a moment before quickly looking away.

"sell things."

Anser and his companions placed the package on the ground, opened it, and revealed a pile of muskets and weapons.

Sidney's face immediately lit up with a smile: "Sell them all?"

"Correct."

Sidney immediately instructed his staff to take inventory of the items, copying them one by one onto a list. At the same time, he invited an elderly man from upstairs to specialize in appraising magical items.

"14 muskets, showing significant wear..."

"Six pieces of leather armor are intact; the others are worth repairing..."

"weapon……"

After counting the dozen or so ordinary weapons, Sidney rubbed his hands together and began to examine the magical items.

The Fireworks Wand, Spiderweb Wand, and Waterwalking Ring obtained from the Blue Flame Order; the cursed Necromancer's Bow and Necromancer's Sword; the Silent Sword obtained from Captain Amn; the Enchanted Leather Armor obtained from the Slave Captain; and the Magic Greatsword obtained from the Bearded First Mate...

Although this magic greatsword is of ordinary quality, it is sturdy and made with ample materials, making it quite valuable. Unfortunately, Blatt couldn't get used to it and had to sell it.

The identification of magical items is rather slow, so Anser sat to the side drinking tea and waiting quietly.

“Mr. Anser, please check. You are a distinguished guest, and the prices have all been set at the highest level.” After a long while, Sidney handed a list to Anser.

Anser took it and saw a long string of dense text, including names, quantities, evaluations, and estimated prices, with a total price in capital letters at the bottom.

3621 gold coins!

‘Hiss~’

He calmed himself down and checked the unit prices one by one.

A piece of ordinary leather armor is only worth a few gold coins, and ordinary weapons range from a few to thirty gold coins, which is reasonable, considering that a newly forged high-quality greatsword and longbow only cost around 50 gold coins.

As long as it doesn't involve the word "magic," it generally won't be expensive.

What surprised him most was the flintlock musket and its accompanying pyrotechnic powder, which didn't seem that powerful, and cost seventy-five gold coins for a set!
