Chapter 58 - 58, The New Order (I’m asking for a recommendation again.)_1
Fang Hao’s delivery time surprised Tellock.
The Taurens had their own blacksmiths. If they chose to order from Fang Hao regardless, the speed of crafting the equipment was the crucial reason. 3000 sets were no small number. Delivering them in only five days was almost unimaginable.
Seeing the widened eyes of Tellock, Fang Hao was taken aback.
He was afraid that Tellock’s eyeballs might pop out from surprise, and that he would have to help him look for them on the ground.
“Chieftain, rest assured, I will deliver on time as promised,” Fang Hao assured him.
He had the Book of Lords and the ability to increase production by a hundredfold, which allowed him to deliver at any time.
However, there were some things that he also couldn’t overdo.
Exceeding the Taurens’ understanding might cause unexpected issues in the transaction.
Tellock glanced at him again and came back to his seat, “Alright, as long as you have a plan.”

-I will deliver the armor on time, but I still need the blueprint from you, Chieftain,” Fang Hao stated.
“Don’t worry, I can provide you with the blueprint,” Tellock lightly responded.
For all lords, the importance of a blueprint goes far beyond a single piece of equipment.
Soon, a Tauren brought the blueprint and handed it to Fang Hao.
[Plate Armor Crafting Blueprint (Green), Armlet Crafting Blueprint (Green)]
[Plate Armor: 12 Leather, 6 Iron, 4 Iron Plates]
[Armlet: 5 Leather, 3 Iron, 2 Iron Plates]
Fang Hao was excited.
They were two green equipment.
He could produce them in bulk and upgrade all his skeleton army to green equipment, enhancing their combat power.
“What’s the price, Chieftain? At what price do you plan to purchase this batch of goods?”
“25 Warfire Coins each set,” Tellock gave his price.
Fang Hao shook his head, quite dissatisfied with the price.
A set referred to two pieces, both of which were green equipment.
The materials required must be quite a lot, especially the third kind, Iron Plate, a new material that needed a blueprint.
Even though he had a hundredfold increase, he still couldn’t lower the price too much.
“Chieftain Tellock, this price won’t even cover the labor cost. It’s hard for me to agree,” Fang Hao placed the blueprint back on the table, pretending to consider.
Tellock knew he offered a low price, so he asked, “What price do you think is right?”
“70 Warfire Coins for one set.”
Fang Hao emphasized the three words ‘Warfire Coin..
“70 is too high. Let’s each take a step back and make it 50,” Tellock stated in a deep voice.
“Chieftain Tellock, with only five days and a guarantee on the quality, I’m also under great pressure. 6o Warfire Coins, no less, or else I’d be suffering losses,” Fang Hao added 10 to his asking price.
Tellock started to ponder.
He seemed to be considering whether to accept this price.
After a long thought, he slammed the table, “Alright, I agree.1
“Good, I will deliver on time in five days.”
Fang Hao revealed a smile, picked up the blueprint again from the table.
He didn’t claim the blueprint in front of Tellock because it was better not to expose too many secrets.
“By the way, Chieftain Tellock, where can I buy some horses and spices?” Fang Hao asked again.
The ten horses in his territory were not enough to deliver goods. Especially this time with the three thousand sets of armor, more horses would be necessary.
He plans to buy more to avoid a shortage when needed.
“You can buy those in the market. You can take a look around, don’t worry about safety. No one dares to cause trouble in Manim,” Tellock said gravely.
“Alright, then I won’t disturb your rest, Chieftain.”
“Hmm.”
Fang Hao left the Chieftain’s hall, and the 24,000 Warfire Coins were temporarily kept by Tellock for safekeeping.
After he finished his shopping, he would take the coins away.
Outside the door, Eira was quietly waiting.
Seeing Fang Hao come out, she happily greeted him.
“Master, did it go well?” Eira asked in her crisp voice.
“It went well. Made a good profit and accepted a bigger order,” Fang Hao confidently answered while walking.
-Where are we going next?” Eira followed Fang Hao’s steps and continued to ask.
From his direction, he wasn’t going to where the carriage was parked.
But instead, he was heading to the market.
-I’m going to buy some horses and spices you suggested,” Fang Hao stated.
“Okay,” Eira replied and silently followed behind.
The two of them arrived at the market.
This was the busiest area in Manim.
The entire area was full of various stalls. Vendors were hawking their goods. A leisurely human in the Orc Market certainly attracted a lot of attention. Greedy eyes measured Fang Hao up and down.
Fang Hao disregarded them, continuing to saunter around casually. Eira, however, was a bit timid and closely followed behind him.
The two of them wandered around the market, choosing what they were fond of.
Soon, Fang Hao discovered that although the Orc Market seemed to have many stalls, the variety of goods was quite scarce.
Many vendors spread a cloth in front of them, placed two pieces of animal
skin, or unidentified ore, and began selling it.
“How much for these stones?” Fang Hao squatted down in front of a female
Ore’s stall, examining the resources on display.
Beast Tooth 55, Natural Gem 22, Trace of the Earth 3, Trace of Brutality 5, Trace of Violence 5.
The rest were animal skin products, which Fang Hao didn’t need, so he didn’t pay them much attention.
“What are you interested in? These are resources, not just rocks,” the female Orc corrected him.
The female Orc belonged to the Demon Orc lineage. She had a large mouth with prominent tusks and her body was covered with robust muscles.
Sitting cross-legged, her bare thighs were covered with thick hair, as if she was wearing fur pants.
“I’ll take all these,” Fang stated, pointing at Beast Tooth, Natural Gem, and all the other resources.
“All of them?” The female Orc asked surprisingly.
“Yes, if you give me a discount, I’ll consider buying all.” Fang Hao smiled.
It was very rare to encounter someone selling so many rare resources at once. He had enough money and could use it either to upgrade buildings or for storage.
“Are you paying with money or bartering.
“Warfire coins.”
“Alright, wait a moment.”
The female Orc was silent, trying to calculate a reasonable price without scaring off the potential customer.
“It’s 55 Warfire coins to take all. How about that?”
After a while, the female Orc spoke again.
“I don’t like dealing with pennies. 50 Warfire coins, and I’ll take them all.” “Deal.” The female Orc was straightforward and agreed right away. After exchanging money and goods, the transaction was completed. Meanwhile, a crowd of Orcs had gathered around Fang Hao.
As soon as he stood up, someone came up and asked, “Sir, do you need these gems? I have a few Natural Gems, I will give you a discount.”
“I have some too. You should have a look.
People gathered around him from all sides, pushing their resources onto him. Soon, he received hundreds of rare resources and spotted a blueprint unintentionally.
