Shortly after the drama and scene they arrived at the gates of Anarsha. Two guards clad with armor and calmly talking stood at each side of the gate.
"Look at that carriage."
"Seems like Caret and the team from Chosen Blade has come back."
After stopping the carriage, shivers went down their spines as they picked glances at James. His overwhelming charisma and contemplating gaze made them almost piss themselves.
'Who is this nobleman or perhaps even royalty?'
'Has Caret grown crazy?'
"Don't worry about him, he is someone I just made acquaintance with so do not worry about him."
"Only if you say so but still he has to pay the thirty copper for entrance since he does not have identification also I suggest you have him registered at any one of the guilds."
Caret gave them a bronze coin and they embarked on their way inside the city walls. The city was amazingly packed with people and had a bustling vibe.
James got off at the merchant guild and placed an herb on the counter for the person opposite the counter to see.
The young lady used appraisal to see the grade of the herb and she was obviously shaken. "Sir you are quiet lucky as the herb you brought is worth about 100 silvers."
James who was a foreigner had no idea of how money here worked so he asked her something that came as an even greater shock "How much is that to be exact?"
"Currency is graded from copper, bronze, silver, gold and platinum. Each of a currency is worth 100 of another. Basically 100 silver or 1 gold is enough to buy a mansion and also probably have enough change for its maintenance for a full year."
"Good so can you buy 30 of these?"
"Huh?"
Minutes later James was now seated opposite the merchant guild's Anarsha branch master. He was an astute man and from hi appearance alone you could tell his noble aura.
The reason was because a transaction as big as 30 gold required the informing of both the lord of the city and all guild masters in the city.
This was because in order to mobilize 30 gold all parties had to be involved one way or the other.
"Lord Avion, I am terribly sorry to say this but we cannot pay you the gold outright but instead can give you 10 gold and pay the rest in monthly installments for 2 years."
"I see no issue but I will not do that but instead there are things which I would like to ask. First I want a mansion large enough for a clan house with maids and workers on the ready. Second I want you to lead the establishment of my new clan don't worry I will give you my forces sheet. Finally I also want you to register my company and provide it a large base and a lot of caravans with drivers."
'How much is this all supposed to cost?'
[This should cost exactly 7 gold and 40 silver. But don't worry the request can be easily fulfilled as long as you close up the debt and request a payment of only 5 gold coins. Although you will lose 17 gold and 60 silver this will be easily recovered if you follow my business plan.]
"If you fulfill this request, you just need to give an upfront payment of 5 gold and you can keep the rest."
This shocked the merchant guild master but after signing the deal he thought it was a stroke of fate as such a profit was unwarranted.
James sat at a bed in a local inn and then decided that the time to draw the rewards had arrived. 'Open copper pack and bronze pack'
[The host has opened a copper pack and bronze pack.]
[ERROR!!....
James Avion has a too high luck value so the rewards have turned into a platinum pack and a diamond pack]
[Congratulations for opening a platinum grade pack. You are rewarded with a platinum hero lottery coupon and 4000 system points. Due to the early access of system points, the store has been unlocked.]
[Congratulations for opening a diamond grade pack. You are rewarded with a high grade magic enhancement card, high grade physical enhancement card and 10 000 system points]
'Open system store.'
[The system store has two features which include the Fantasy Store and Otherworld Store. In the Fantasy Store the host can buy anything related to his current world using points. Meanwhile the other world store bought material from earth using dollars. One point was equivalent to 1 000 000 dollars. Also you can trade real world currency to dollars at the rate of a copper is equal to a single cent.]
Next James used both enhancement cards and immediately felt the surge of power. Then he opened the store and bought some new skills and talents.
The first was to buy elite grade swordsmanship for 2500 system points and he used it granting him the power of a peak grade elite knight. This allowed him to use aura, a legendary power that defined a knight.
His second purchase was a greater fire grimoire for 1500 system points. Last purchase were one thousand lab grown diamonds and one thousand military daggers.
The reason of the last purchase was simply to sell them after his company was established. Also he had recruited Caret as his Chief Merchant so why not give him the goods and surely in one week the Avion Trading Company would be worth multiple platinum coins.
'Draw the hero lottery.'
[The platinum hero lottery has been drawn and the character drawn is the Ryan Potter]
