Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem-Chapter 432 - 207: The Suspicious Farmer’s Wife and the Mind Energy Queen (6000)
Chapter 432: Chapter 207: The Suspicious Farmer’s Wife and the Mind Energy Queen (6000)
Orkan laughed, "Lord, you truly have an eye for things."
Upon hearing this, Cao Xing’s mouth twitched.
The basic brewing skill was being exaggerated as a high-level brewing skill. These merchants would stop at nothing to inflate prices.
Cao Xing was speechless, "Just tell me the price directly."
Orkan pondered for a moment and then quoted a price.
"Twenty thousand crowns, Sir."
Hearing this number, Cao Xing rolled his eyes again.
He stated directly, "Two thousand crowns."
Orkan was taken aback by such a hefty price cut.
He had hyped this slave up so much, yet the other party seemed completely unmoved.
With a troubled expression, he said, "Sir, this price is a bit difficult to handle..."
"In our Giant Commerce, even the cheapest slaves cost over a thousand crowns." fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
"Although Delio doesn’t have much combat power, he is quite hardworking and can brew wine. How about adding a bit more?"
Upon hearing this, Cao Xing offered another price.
"Two thousand five hundred crowns, take it or leave it."
Hearing this price, a hesitant look appeared in Orkan’s eyes again.
After a moment, he slowly stated, "Deal..."
A smile gradually appeared on Cao Xing’s face as well.
After paying 2,500 crowns, Orkan blew his goatee.
Then he glanced at the guard beside him, giving a signal.
The slave named Delio was then escorted to stand behind Cao Xing.
In his first transaction, Cao Xing managed to snag a talent, putting him in a good mood.
Meanwhile, Cao Xing turned his attention to a level-13 woman named Sabina nearby.
She had an Intermediate Medical Skill Mastery, and her level-13 constitution gave her slight combat power.
Cao Xing asked, "How much for this one?"
Orkan inspected carefully for a moment, then said, "Sabina was originally a fairly renowned doctor in the Pallas Duchy. Her medical skills were exceptional, but for some reason, while treating someone, she conspired to kill a Baron, and was captured by the Knight Order."
"Sabina should have been sentenced to hanging on the spot, but she was rescued by a knight she once treated. They fled the Pallas Duchy, and after being pursued, she ended up in the hands of our Giant Commerce."
Hearing this, the woman in the cage wore an indifferent expression, and her gaze at Orkan was filled with coldness.
Unmoved, Orkan maintained a faint smile and said, "Sir, this one’s price is slightly higher, needing fifty thousand crowns."
Hearing this, Cao Xing had a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Clearly, Orkan had pretty much figured out the details and abilities of these slaves.
He even had a clear picture of Sabina’s background.
Of course, there was certainly some exaggeration.
Sabina only had Intermediate Medical Skill Mastery, yet Orkan exaggerated it as highly advanced medical skills.
However, what Orkan didn’t know was that besides her medical skills, Sabina had another superior skill.
That was [Advanced Poison Skill Mastery]!
This skill allowed Sabina to master various poisoning techniques and even develop powerful poisons to coat weapons or arrows, greatly enhancing attack capability.
Sabina probably relied on this means to poison the Baron and evade the Knight Order’s pursuit.
Cao Xing even wanted to buy the woman on the spot.
Even for fifty thousand, or even one hundred thousand crowns, it would be worth it.
But he refrained and continued to haggle, "I can only offer five thousand crowns, Mr. Orkan."
Hearing this price, Orkan’s goatee twitched again.
He noticed this Lord truly had nerves of steel.
No matter how highly he hyped things, the other party was utterly unfazed.
This made Orkan suspect if their Giant Commerce’s method of concealing aura had already failed?
However, after taking a closer look, he ensured that the slave’s auras were well hidden, and gradually felt at ease.
After a round of haggling, Cao Xing finally bought Sabina for twelve thousand.
Both parties wore satisfied smiles.
Afterwards, Cao Xing picked and chose, buying several individuals with decent constitution to use as laborers.
Among them, two slaves had Intermediate Culinary Skill Mastery and Basic Level Fishing Skill Mastery.
A total of seven people.
After some fierce bargaining, Cao Xing spent twenty thousand crowns to buy all of them.
Orkan squinted, a genuine smile on his face.
Cao Xing had already purchased 9 slaves from him, making him a good customer.
"Sir, do you need anything else?"
Cao Xing said nothing, instead he looked over again, inspecting each one.
Hoping to find another valuable talent like Sabina with advanced skills!
However, after a thorough look, Cao Xing felt a little disappointed.
Among the remaining slaves, they were all ordinary people, not much use.
And the warriors were too expensive; a Second Order warrior started at twenty thousand crowns.
For Cao Xing, these ordinary warriors held little value.
Just when he was about to end the transaction, Cao Xing’s gaze suddenly stopped on a particular prison wagon.
In the corner squatted a robust farm woman in dirty rags.
Noticing Cao Xing’s gaze, the farm woman opened her mouth, uttering unintelligible sounds.
She looked at Cao Xing, her pupils clouded, with a silly grin on her face, and drool seeping from the corners of her mouth.
