After Maxing out all Classes

Chapter 46: A Large Haul

Robbed walked in front, followed by Lillian holding a small bamboo basket. The master and servant walked leisurely to the center of town.

When he first arrived, it was still early July, but now, it's early August. This is the second time Robb's been out shopping, mainly because he'd been so lazy this past month.

This time he went out, he realized that Westwind Town looked quite different since the last time he went out shopping. Many families seem to be building water towers with water screws everywhere. It is amazing. Iron and copper pipes hang from the water towers.

Since mining is the best of the four major industries in Westwind town, even the poorest of townspeople in Westwind Town, even the poorest of people could easily acquire iron and copper. Some people copy Robb and use iron, but some senior townspeople who deal with metal choose copper pipes instead.

When Robb saw the iron pipes, he remembered, "Since there is copper, I shouldn't use iron as a pipe. Copper won't oxidize, nor will it rust easily, which is a huge improvement compared to iron pipes. Alas, I thought like a modern person would. In my original world, the motherland was short of copper. It wasn't even enough to make copper money, so people used iron to make all kinds of objects instead. However, copper doesn't seem rare in this world, and it's not difficult for these people to use it for pipes."

Robb turned to Lillian and said, "Remind me when we get home that I have to ask the blacksmith again to replace all the water pipes in the chapel with copper."

Lillian nodded, Yes, master.

As they walked, the townspeople they passed by respectfully saluted Robb. From time to time, people would shout, "Good morning, my father." Robb waved to everyone with the aura of a leader.

When they arrived at the town center, Robb saw a gathering of people. He thought they were just blocking his view, but then he heard a townsman shouting, "Father is coming!"

The townspeople who gathered around seemed to have been split by force capable of splitting open Mt. Hua. They separated from each other to make way for Robb, and they saluted, "Father, after you."

Robb felt embarrassed by their actions and said with a smile, "You guys are too kind."

The townspeople said respectfully, Of course!

Well, its okay for a son to be polite to his father, but can you sell things to your father for free? After a wave of complaints in his consciousness, Robb walked through the welcome array of the townspeople and came to see the Travelling merchant.

He didn't notice at first, but it's a welcome sign to see that the traveling merchant's a dwarf. He's short, only as high as Robb's waist, with a big head accounting for 1/3 of his total height, with a beard dragging towards his waist. He stared at Robb with great interest.

Behind the dwarf was a group of servants guarding the cart loaded with a dazzling array of goods. Robb glanced at bundles of linen, cotton, salt, pepper, vanilla jars, and some messy daily necessities. There were too many to enumerate.

Oh, dear father. The dwarf said, I come to Westwind Town every two months, but I didnt see a priest the last time I came. I didnt expect to see one now. You are so young and handsome.

As soon as they met, the dwarf immediately started flattering him. Sure enough, its a merchant. Robb smiled and returned, I also think Im quite handsome in this character.

The dwarf said, Character?

Robb smiled and said, Dont worry about the minor stuff. Let me look at the goods.

The dwarf hurriedly bowed and said, Please choose as you will.

Robb went to the cart and looked closely, immediately finding a roll of silk. The dwarf followed where his eyes went and quickly explained, Father, you understand. This is of high quality. It was shipped from Big Tang from the East. Its used to make light and comfortable clothes that arent near comparable to cotton cloth. Its popular among princes and nobles.

At this point, he leaned close to Robbs ear and whispered, Its especially suitable for making pajamas for women. Tsk, reach and touch it that feeling, hehehe."

Robb knows this, of course, and he also knows that robes made of silk are a lot better than cotton cloth, regardless of defense, intelligence, and magic power. This kind of thing, which can only be imported from Big Tang in the East, is very rare in the West, and it is not easy to buy it ordinarily.

He smiled and said, Good, then Ill take it. How many do you have?

"I have ten!" When the dwarf heard that Robb would buy it, a bright smile appeared, one gold per piece.

Robb smiled and said, Ill take it all.

Cotton cloth only costs 10 silver, but silk costs ten times more. Of course, ordinary people can't buy it. In fact, it's quite difficult to sell this stuff on the western border. It's only occasionally bought by the mayor. Robb bought ten at once, which made the dwarf happy. He smiled, took the money from Lillian, and put it in his pocket. His servants put ten pieces of silk in Lillian's hand.

Lillian couldnt carry all of them on her own, but there were enthusiastic townspeople who immediately came to help.

Robb bought another big jar of salt, vanilla powder, and many things that could not be bought in Westwind Town, both useful and not-so-useful.

However, after such an operation, Robb didn't have much money remaining. Last time, he made a hundred gold from selling the leather armor, which seemed to be a lot of money. However, he spent a lot of money on shopping and casually issued a mission with a request. With that, more than half of the money he had gone bye-bye at once.

When his eyes turned to a large can of pepper on the dwarf merchant's cart, Lillian tugged at the corner of Robb's clothes and whispered, "Master, don't. Don't buy pepper. You don't have much money left."

Oh, are we running out of money? Robb always left the money to Lillian, so he didnt know how much he had left.

Lillian whispered, We still have ten gold coins at home. It's okay to buy something, but... we can't buy any more pepper. It's too expensive, as expensive as gold. It takes a pound of gold to buy a pound of pepper. We'd better save a little bit now and stop buying such expensive things."
