Mid-April, five miles north of Leonton.

In the morning, the sun has just risen.

At the foot of a Yellowstone Mountain, Jia Ke led three people to set up a stall...

The items for sale are the horns of elite monsters and white dragon feathers, which are the quality of mid-level monster materials.

The four of them waited until noon, but there were less than ten adventurers who came to see the goods. There were only three people who wanted to buy but couldn't afford the silver coins. Setting up a stall in the wilderness, almost no one came, and they couldn't sell anything at all...

The four young men persisted until sunset, and finally couldn't help but complain to each other...

"I can't sell any of them! If no one buys them, I'll starve to death!"

The half-elf girl Avril lay down on the pile of rocks and spoke in a venting tone.

"How did the Saint Lady do this? How about we take it to the city and sell it?"

Jako tugged at his furry ears.

He said with difficulty: "Are you stupid? We took so many things into the city without any cover. The city guards will definitely take our goods away. We might even cause trouble. If we are not careful, we will not be able to survive in Leonton City!"

"It must be a test given to us by the Saint Lady!"

A canine boy named Merlin pricked up his long ears and spoke in a vigorous voice.

Seeing the gazes of several people, he smiled slightly and said, "Think about it, our team has so many people, and we have to spend more than ten silver coins every day, either to buy this or that... Senior Erwin mentioned that the Saint Lady is a descendant of the nobility. Maybe she lets us be self-reliant and set up stalls to train us and cultivate us. This is the intention of the Saint Lady."

Nicholas agreed, nudging Merlin lightly with his shoulder. "Yes, I think so too! These days we have been relying on the Saint for everything. If we can't do such a small thing, doesn't it mean that we are useless people who eat for free?"

"What do you think?" Jaco asked. "The Saint said that we will be in charge of the money from the sales and we don't have to hand it over to the Saint. Is it just to inspire our fighting spirit? Merlin, how do you want to sell these goods?"

"The adventurers who come here are all poor," Merlin stood in front of Jaco, "Doing business means looking for rich people, people with needs. If you don't know the target, why sell blindly? I say these things, not because Jaco is a bad leader."

"Who is the rich man? Also, why should others trust our products?" Nicholas asked, "Or should we sell them to retail investors?"

Merlin picked up a pair of elite monster horns, which were almost as long as his own height.

"Fifty pieces. We can't sell any of them today... I have an idea. Tomorrow we'll spread the word in the city that we have a batch of elite monsters. We'll sell fifty pieces for 2,200 silver coins, with elite monster furs as a gift. If no one comes to ask by noon, we'll lower the price to 2,100 silver coins in the afternoon. Long Yu will make another offer. If no one buys after tomorrow night, we'll change our strategy."

Jia Ke objected, "Why are you raising the price? Selling fifty pieces at a time! Who can afford it?"

"You don't understand this," Merlin smiled secretly, "Our price is just the average price in the market. The only people in Leonton who can afford it are the Chamber of Commerce and the nobles. They are very sensitive to the smell of money. As long as we sell it, we can make an extra 200 silver coins. The dragon feather will be sold separately. Selling so many good things at once will easily attract thieves."

The next morning, Jaco and Merlin sat side by side on a bench in the Fountain Square while Nicholas and Avril posted gossip in the Adventurer's Association and posted it on a public notice board next to the bounty list.

It tells the story of unsaleable goods and the location of the joint.

The four continued to wait, and after lunch time, a middle-aged man came, wearing a white top hat, a blue uniform, and holding a cane.

"Fifty pieces of elite monster horns."

The middle-aged man asked tentatively.

Merlin stood up and said cheerfully, "Fifty pieces for only 2,200 silver coins. Which family are you from, sir?"

"I'll scare you to death if I tell you this. I'm the butler of Count Jialai. The carriage is ready at the city gate. Where's your cargo?"

Merlin saw that there was a good chance and said, "Half an hour later, five miles outside the north city, there is a simple wooden house..."

After saying that, Merlin signaled with his eyes that they should leave immediately.

Jako turned back to the Adventurer's Guild on the main city road and tore off the note on the public notice board.

An hour later, Merlin and the butler exchanged money and goods.

"You are so young," the butler inquired, "where did you get these elite monster materials?"

"Sorry, this is a commercial secret. I cannot tell you. I am also curious as to what you want so many elites for."

Merlin took the eleven bags of coins, each filled with two hundred silver coins. He weighed the heavy bags, opened them and took a look at the handfuls of silver coins wrapped in them. The other bags were of the same weight and sound.

"Of course these elite monster materials should be handed over to the Oberic treasury. If they are not handed over, are they going to be eaten?"

After the butler finished speaking, he told the coachman to return to the Earl's Palace.

After they walked away, Jiako and his companions were so excited that they jumped up on the spot.

Jia Ke stamped his feet excitedly and said, "Great! I really made a lot of money this time!"

"Do you really want to go out and have some fun?"

Merlin squinted his eyes at the three people who were overly excited and acting like crazy.

"There are still dragon feathers that have not been sold. Why are you so happy so early? Following the Saint Lady, I believe the beautiful future will continue."

The excitement of the three people quickly disappeared, and Avril hurriedly asked: "Then...how should Dragon Feather be sold?"

Merlin's eyes turned and he said, "Of course, we sell it to whoever needs it. This is just a small profit, but it's nothing."

"Do you know who needs Dragon Feather? Of course it's the person who drew the scroll!"

Jia Ke felt a little confused, scratched his head and remained silent...

Nicholas simply asked, "Who painted the scroll?"

"Stupid! We need to find a scroll master! In Leonton, there is only one street near the library that can draw scrolls, but we only have 24 dragon feathers, which cost 480 silver coins. However, we have enough money. What we lack most now are equipment and scrolls. Why not exchange them for 13 elementary magic cloaks and 11 elementary teleportation scrolls?"

Merlin blurted out his next plan, and it seemed that he had already figured out the account.

The few of them worked until late at night and brought back a large amount of silver coins and a magic cloak for each person. The primary teleportation scroll was managed by Nicholas.

Far in the western part of the Oberic Empire.

Isabella still remembered the place where she separated from Ling Yi. She opened the space gap and came here, but found that the entrance to the cave had been blown up by a powerful magician.

Feeling something was wrong, Isabella walked closer to observe and was a little surprised, even felt it was very strange.

The entrance to the cave was actually blown up today. The soil is very new, and the refurbished color is out of tune with the nearby soil.

There was no time to think about it. It was none of his business anyway. He took out an advanced teleportation scroll and selected the northwest direction to teleport...

Isabella took out the simple map drawn by Ling Yi and judged the nearby terrain. She was now outside the northwest gate of the Oberic Empire, completely out of the country, and still two thousand kilometers away from Saint Go City if she flew in a straight line.

Isabella took out the intermediate scroll and teleported again. The location was more than 200 kilometers away from Saint Go City...

The last 200 kilometers can only be flown by myself.

Isabella rose to a high altitude and could vaguely see the city of Saint Go from afar under the stars in the clear sky, and there were also several floating rocks similar to sky islands.

When Isabella landed in Saint Go City, the nightlife in the city had just begun. The clock tower in the center of the square showed that the time was 8 o'clock in the evening. Isabella pinched her fingers and calculated the time. The time difference between Leonton City and Saint Go City was more than four time zones.

According to the time and place given by Ling Yi and Shui Xi, they are now in the opera house, which is rehearsing an old love story of the northern elves of the old dynasty. It is a century-old classic in the Saint Go city-state.

After turning on the earth dragon sensor, the magical fluctuations touched the positions of the two of them.

The two of them also sensed that Isabella had arrived.

Isabella chose a barbecue restaurant, went up to the second floor, paid the bill plus a tip, and chose a quiet living room to prepare for the meal.

The climate of the Northern Elf Territory is not suitable for growing crops. The people here mainly eat meat, and a small amount of cereals and grains are twice as expensive as three or four pounds of beef.

Shui Xi and Ling Yi left the opera house. The two of them actually made everyone present feel a little uneasy, because their presence in the city-state was too dazzling. They were able to deal with king-level monsters. There was no more powerful combination than them in the world!

The two of them came to the guest room, and after a warm greeting, they were served a few meat dishes, chatted about recent events, and soon talked about the important matters of the guild.

Ling Yi said: "We currently have 2,000 gold coins in our hands. I am not confident in recruiting people. Since I left the Almighty Eye, it is difficult for me to trust others."

"Have you decided on the location?"

Isabella asked.

Shui Xi chewed the meat and said, "Do you see the suspended stone outside the city? The guild's site is right there! The magnetic field is stable, and the guild won't fall down if it's built on it..."

"My castle will be set up as a guild. I will also have some children that I recently rescued after undergoing my magic experiment. Let them join your guild. Otherwise, our team won't even have a normal name..."

Shui Xi nodded: "I agree with Miss Isabella's idea!"
