"I am selling them per kilogram, they're pretty light so you can get around ten for a gold coin. How about that?" Asked the Mountain Giant.
A gold coin was able to feed a commoner family for a month, but for expensive rchandise like this, only ten were worth that, even if these were actually cheaper than they are originally. He probably is reselling them of course, that's how he makes money and how rchants' profit from traveling around, they buy and sell, they never just magically find things to sell, they do investnts and find places where they're rare and sell them off. They're part of how societies advanced into modernity in Earth, as they were able to connect people and cultures all for the sa sake… profits! …And surviving, I guess.
A Gold Coin is around a Hundred Silver Coins, so each Spirit Stone is ten silvers? I guess… He could had made a price for and sold them cheaper like 90 Silvers for it, but maybe he's already making a price and he'll tell he's selling them at 11 Silver Coins instead or sothing like that, which is obviously false, this is how rchants sell, they're always making "offers" but these "offers" are actually just the normal price and they add an even more exaggerated expensive price to the side and scratch, making it seem as if this is being sold very cheap and you cannot miss it, very simple ntal manipulation that actually works a lot, more than it should… This is why I believe that a good rchant is never honest.
Nonetheless, I was loaded with gold coins, so I easily bought several kilograms, anyways! I already had made a big amount of money out in the Orange Village by selling all the mana stones I wanted to sell. Of course we are keeping a lot for our own people and the three- well, four counting my castle sects that we are maintaining, each one of those got their own small economy so I cannot simply extract all of their resources to make myself so money, I have to be equal if possible and be considerate with everybody so everyone can be happier.
"Okay then, I am buying twenty kilograms for each one." I said. I quickly took out twenty gold coins and paid them to the man.
"Thank you… But how are you going to pack them? Well you're an ice giant I guess you can just carry them in a sack, want one? It's on the house." He said, taking out a big leather bag.
"Yeah, thanks." I said, I quickly grabbed the bag and the man quickly put the stones inside.
"And done." He said. "You too?" The man asked Rakasha as he took out his wallet, I had already exchanged mana stones with everybody. Everyone in my party got their own wallets with their own money they earn by working for , so they got their own capital and can buy whatever they want to, they're people of their own after all so they're not restricted by or sothing.
At the end, when we brough everything, we decided to move on, carrying sacks of spirit stones wasn't annoying, they were very light for , but it kept my hands occupied, which was a main, so I decided to move to an alleyway and stored them inside my inventory behind the scenes, Rakasha asked to store his bag as well, and then we continued moving through the large market. The first thing we saw after that was a stall selling alloys, there were several colorful tals, red, green, blue, black, and even golden tals all of them with a shiny and beautiful luster that made them stand out a lot. We checked them one by one, and they were a widespread magic tal known as Magicite.
"This is Magicite, if you folk don't know about it, it is a widespread tal that has an amazing magic conduction." Said the old Bull Beast-kin man selling them off, he was also selling weapons too, swords, spears, axes, and even a giant hamr, and a lot of armor, which was all made out of Magicite and infused with other magical minerals and even jewels such as Spirit Stones. "I got these from them dwarves that ca from their continent the other day in the port city. These tals are pretty good at channeling elents too, even if you're not good at fire magic you can conjure a fire slash with this big red sword."
"I see… So they're magical weapons." I said. I have created many of these before, most of the ti they're all ice-based because ice is my greatest elent at the end, but I have also made so of other elents, I rember having crafted a poison-attribute bow for Benladann's mother, and also I've made so war-attribute gauntlets for her father, I have also thought about making a wind-attribute weapon seeing I got two ice weapons.
However, even then, it is hard to make magical weapons that are not of my elent, we lacked enough resources to make them and using monster materials alone won't do it, we need more than just that to make these be better and actual weapons, so I wasn't really good at making them completely, and although there were dropped weapons, they were subpar dropped from a dungeon of low ranks, there are better weapons and armor but they barely drop in higher level dungeons, and I have prioritized the gathering of dungeon points so they drop even less and perhaps up to zero.
Also, I have discovered that dungeon equipnt tend to break apart, it is as if they got a limited amount of durability, like actual ga items, and this is probably why it is better to just break them apart and make alloys out of them to make better weapons, I suppose I figured that out pretty late myself. The whole dungeon thing was made by an ancient, reincarnated person with the power to create dungeons, so it is probably based in so ga-like power now that I think about it…
And these armor and weapons were special too.
"These armor and weapons were crafted by dwarves from their own continent!"
