When Hilton heard this, he also fell into thinking.
According to the businessman’s instinct, he will definitely use his exquisite words to lower the value of the black diamond at this time.
Then they will aggressively bargain and purchase at an extremely low price to obtain maximum profits.
However, because of Cao Xing’s identity as the Tianxuan Lord and his first transaction, he took out something as precious as the [Black Diamond].
This made Hilton feel that Cao Xing was a lord with full potential.
If you can leave a good impression on him, there may be a chance to work together again in the future.
Between short-term interests and long-term interests, he chose the latter.
So, Hilton said: “The market price of ordinary black diamonds is between 200,000 and 400,000 crowns.”
“A black diamond of excellent quality can be sold for 500,000 kronor.”
After hearing this, Cao Xing felt joy appear on his lips.
500,000 crowns! This is a truly huge sum of money, and indeed exceeds the price of a piece of purple equipment.
However, Hilton’s next words surprised him even more.
“And the black diamond in your hand is even more exquisite.”
Hilton thought for a moment and said a price.
“What do you think of 950,000 kroner?”
When he quoted the price, there was a flash of surprise in Cao Xing’s eyes! Because the price was far beyond his expectations.
Even more than the price of that golden shield! Although Cao Xing doesn’t understand the prices in this world.
But obviously, this is a reasonable price.
Because it is already higher than the price of that golden shield.
Cao Xing let out a long sigh.
Unexpectedly, the black diamonds he collected in the safari camp could be exchanged for a piece of golden equipment.
This made Cao Xing secretly decide that if there was a chance in the future, he would clear out a few more safari camps, what if something good came out again?
So, Cao Xing said: “Let’s do it. I want that golden shield, plus 100,000 kroner coins, which is exactly 1 million.”
Hearing that Cao Xing had increased the price by another 50,000 yuan, Hilton thought for a moment and then nodded.
“make a deal.”
There was joy on both of their faces.
After finishing speaking, Hilton motioned to the mercenaries behind him.
Two mercenaries, each carrying a large black box, came over.
Then, they opened the box in front of Cao Xing.
Inside a box, there was a hexagonal shield over one meter tall and completely golden.
It is also engraved with dense patterns, which is beautiful and has a strong sense of weight.
The appearance of this shield is even comparable to some works of art.
In another big box, there were tons of krona coins.
Hilton praised: “Lord Cao Xing, you are really discerning.”
“I collected this shield from an ancient tribe. It has a history of at least a thousand years. The craftsmanship on it even amazed the dwarf blacksmith master Tedak.”
“Master Tedak said that this forging method has probably been lost.”
“So, this may be the last such shield in the entire continent, and it has extremely high collection value.”
Cao Xing nodded, he could also see how precious this shield was.
Even the aborigines looked into the box with longing.
Of course, Cao Xing didn’t care about what Hilton said was out of print.
After all, these merchants always like to exaggerate their products and increase added value.
Then, they exchanged the supplies.
[Transaction successful: You obtained [Paladin’s Shield (gold)], [Coin]*100,000, and you lost [Black Diamond]*1] When the transaction was completed, joy appeared on both sides’ faces.
Cao Xing was also excited when he looked at the golden shield in his backpack.
After all, this is the first piece of golden equipment he has obtained.
At this time, Hilton once again looked at Cao Xing with longing eyes and said: “Dear Lord Chosen, I wonder if you have any special items there?”
He seemed to be unsatisfied, after all, even though the acquisition price for this black diamond was very high.
But he still has a way to make huge profits.
Cao Xing shook his head, “No more for now, Mr. Hilton.”
Hilton also looked a little regretful, but he quickly recovered and said: “It doesn’t matter, Lord Cao Xing, I will come to the Blizzard Snowfield often in the future. If you have anything special, please try your best to trade with me.”
Cao Xing also smiled and nodded, “Easy to talk to, Mr. Hilton, happy to cooperate.”
After speaking, Cao Xing took the initiative to step out of the territory and shake hands with Hilton to show his sincerity.
Hilton also extended his chubby hand.
“Happy to work with!”
At this time, Hilton glanced at the territory behind Cao Xing.
His eyes stayed on the [Lord’s Cabin] and the [Elementary Element Arrow Tower] for a moment.
He nodded secretly.
Then, his eyes were fixed on the half-built [Tavern].
Hilton’s eyes lit up, and he seemed to have made some kind of decision.
“Lord Cao Xing, I see that your territory has already begun to take shape, and even the tavern is about to be built.”
“I wonder, are you willing to establish trade relations with our Black Lion Chamber of Commerce?”
“Trading?”
“Yes.”
Hilton nodded and said: “When we, the Black Lion merchants, are doing business in the snowy fields later on, we will also come to your territory and use this place as a trading point.”
“Of course, we will also pay a certain fee. At the same time, if you become our partner, you will be able to enjoy a 50% discount when purchasing items from the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce in the future.”
This is because they are interested in the development prospects of their own territory, and they plan to come here often for trade in the future.
A system prompt appears.
[The prosperity of your territory has reached the required level. Hilton, the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce, is applying to establish a trade relationship with your territory. Do you want to accept it? 】
Cao Xing thought to himself.
Obviously, this condition is not harmful to him.
And because of the influence of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce, more people will come to his territory in the future, and the chance of recruiting some powerful heroes will also become higher.
Cao Xing replied: “Sir Hilton, I am happy to establish a cooperative relationship with the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce.”
After hearing this, Hilton suddenly beamed.
[Trade relations have been successfully established, the favorability of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce has increased, and the current favorability is: friendly]
The two sides shook hands happily again.
At this time, Cao Xing added: “Your Excellency Hilton, my territory is still under construction. It will take some time to improve the facilities.”
After hearing this, Hilton waved his hand and said: “It doesn’t matter, Lord Cao Xing, we are not in a hurry.”
At this time, Hilton’s two eyes on his fat face moved as if he thought of something.
“Lord Cao Xing, the construction of the territory requires more manpower. I wonder if you need to recruit a new group of territorial citizens?”
Cao Xing frowned slightly after hearing this, “Mr. Hilton, what do you mean?”
Hilton smiled mysteriously.
Then, he had people lift the black curtains over the last two carriages.
Cao Xing immediately saw a group of humanoid creatures with white skin, clothes sewn from white leaves, and white hair, huddled in the carriage.
“This is it?” Cao Xing asked doubtfully.
Hilton explained: “This is the tree spirit clan. They are the guardians of the Pale Holy Tree, but their home was destroyed because of the awakening of the ancient dragon Zetan.”
“A large number of tree spirits are homeless. They fled all the way from the northern continent and came to our western continent.”
“Our president of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce couldn’t bear the displacement of these former guardians, so he asked us businessmen to bring the tree spirits with us when doing business to see if we could find a kind lord to take them in.”
Having said this, Hilton added: “Lord Cao Xing, please rest assured that the tree spirit clan has been living in the Northern Continent all year round. They endure hardships and stand hard work. They will not be lazy when working.”
After listening to Hilton’s introduction, Cao Xing understood.
These tree spirits were not captured by them, but took refuge in the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce because they were homeless.
Now, the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce is looking for a place for this group of escapees.
From this point of view, the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce is not like those traditional businessmen who do business without evil intentions. At least they still retain the last bit of conscience.
Of course, this group of tree spirits must have brought them a lot of benefits.
Cao Xing couldn’t help but think: ‘It seems that this world is not peaceful. There are all kinds of cultists, evil gods, and now even the ancient dragons have come out. ’
From a long distance, Cao Xing saw the attributes of these tree spirits.
[Tree Spirit: Valerie lv6]
[HP: 360/360]
[Attack power: 27~31]
[Skill: None]
[Talent: Guardian of the Pale Tree (within the range of the Pale Tree, restore 0.1% of blood volume per second)]
…
[Tree Spirit: Voino lv4]
[HP: 280/280]
[Attack power: 23~25]
[Skill: None]
[Talent: Guardian of the Pale Tree]
…
[Pale Seed: Neve lv5]
[Level: First-Level Elite Level]
[HP: 420/420]
[Skill: Eye of the Forest (can share vision with a nearby plant)]
[Talent: Guardian of the Pale Tree]
…
Cao Xing’s eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Neve’s attributes.
It’s actually an elite level, and it also has a special skill.
Cao Xing’s eyes were fixed on a relatively petite tree spirit in the carriage.
She also looked at Cao Xing with curious eyes.
With eyes like ice crystals and snow-white skin, she looks like a crystal doll.
However, the moment she looked at Cao Xing, Eve lowered her head.
It is estimated that this Neve herself did not realize what was special about herself.
After all, the elite level only has 30% more attributes than ordinary creatures. At lower levels, this advantage is not so obvious.
The attributes of other tree spirits are not bad either, and they can be used as labor units.
You can also train them into Frost Archers after the training barracks are built.
At this moment, Cao Xing was indeed moved! …
