For transportation cost, japtem would be fine…”
“Weed nim, japtem is the best.” Mapan
“There is a lot of japtem that I need to take care of so could you also take care of its price? I’m sorry that you had to come all the way out here to take care of this for me.”
“It’s always a pleasure doing business with Weed nim.”
Weed had placed Mapan in charge of disposing of the high quality loot japtem from the Necromancers. The Necromancers had levels that exceed 300 and some even past 400. He had made the undead hunt a lot and had now piled up a colossal amount of japtem. Weed gave the japtem to Mapan so that he could directly sell it to the store for an additional 15% of its value. Then he calculated 5% to be taken as profit. When trading in town, merchants that bought japtem usually got a small margin and 10% was usually the default amount .
“Isn’t he a really good merchant?”
“I know. I’ve dealt with traders a few times in the past but I’ve never seen a deal as good as 5%. Is it because he’s a professional?”
They wanted to sell of their items they got from the Necromancers. They were very nervous to walk around with the burden of carrying japtem. Weed took a guess and then went over to introduce Mapan.
“Say hello here. This is Mapan, a merchant I’m close to from the past. If you want to get rid of your japtem then I could ask him to take care of it for the same price he got for me.”
“Can I really? I don’t have the time to go to the shop to find a merchant since I want to go with Weed nim.”
‘5 percent isn’t much compared to all the trouble I went through to come here…’
It would have been bad if Mapan had met with the Necromancers. Transportation costs were high given how high the risks were.
“This is fine. Mapan is a very good merchant. He used to trade a lot in the past with japtem but now he rarely has the chance since he needs to manage his trade store.”
Mapan then went to say.
“I like adventures so I came here to watch Weed. I would also like to take care of the japtem as an extra. It’s a sacrifice I’m willing to take.”
They came with Necromancer japtem. They could sell it for 2 or 3% in Morata but this was the best price they had seen yet.
