Wizard, I Have Another World – Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Re-entry

“This…”

Karl frowned.

It was true that selling it to anyone was selling it, but he didn’t think Kingsley could afford it.

“Yvonne’s birthday is coming up soon, and I plan to buy it as a birthday present for her.”

Kingsley said:

“Three pounds, how about that?”

Yvonne?

The figure of a girl flashed through his mind, making Karl hesitate, then he sighed helplessly and nodded slowly:

“Alright then.”

“Clan.” Kingsley was overjoyed, she turned to look at the old man Clan, swaying her body, her voice charming:

“Will you pay for me?”

“Okay.” Clan grinned:

“I’ll pay.”

Three pounds wasn’t much to him.

Old Nick watched this scene and shook his head slightly.

The value of that hairpin was definitely more than just three pounds, even three gold coins was cheap. This woman was so shrewd, she got such a big benefit without paying a penny.

But he believed Karl also knew the real value of the hairpin.

Three pounds,

it wasn’t worth the trip at all.

After paying the money, Kingsley’s attitude immediately became much colder, she said a few words and left.

“Darling, are we going to your place or a hotel?”

“Hotel?”

“Let’s have dinner first.”

“Of course!”

The two discussed their next itinerary as if no one else was around, their figures gradually moving away.

Watching their backs, Karl was speechless, so the passion just now was only because of the hairpin.

“I’m sorry.”

Turning around, he looked at Old Nick:

“I actually have one more item here.”

As he spoke, he took out a jade bracelet and placed it on the table, making Old Nick, who was a little disappointed, brighten up.

It was already getting dark when they left Buddy Auction House.

Karl touched the heavy money bag, turned and walked into a dark alley, and when he came out, he had changed his appearance.

The black cloak wrapped his body tightly, his features hidden deep in the hood, and his whole body exuded an aura of “stay away.”

“Divine Domain Fragment…, it’s really convenient.”

After glancing at Buddy Auction House and muttering to himself, he turned and walked into another consignment shop.

“Friend.”

Gary, who was greeting customers, saw Karl walk in, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted him:

“You’re here.”

“Yeah.”

Karl nodded, his voice cold:

“Same as usual, I’ll look at the goods, and if the price is right, I’ll sell.”

“Yes, yes.” Gary rubbed his hands together, his face full of anticipation:

“You always bring good stuff, friend, I wonder what it will be this time, I’m looking forward to it.”

“It’s jewelry again.” Karl sat down, casually took out a necklace from his arms, and placed it on the table:

“Take a look.”

It was a necklace with dozens of gemstones strung together, each gemstone shining with dazzling light. The overall design of the necklace was simple and elegant, with a smooth chain and perfect matching.

If it weren’t for the poor quality of the gemstones on it, it could almost be considered a beautiful and rare treasure.

“Good stuff!”

Gary’s eyes lit up, he carefully stroked the necklace in his hands:

“It’s a pity that the quality of the gemstones is average, but even so, it’s still an excellent piece of art.”

“Hmm…”

“Twenty gold coins!”

Hmm?

Under the hood, Karl raised his eyebrows slightly.

Not because the price was too low, but because it was too high, it had even exceeded his estimated psychological price.

It was difficult to sell small pieces of jewelry at a high price, especially if the quality was not high.

A few gold coins was more common.

His psychological price was ten gold coins.

“Twenty gold coins?”

“Yes.” Gary explained:

“This price is not cheap, if you are not satisfied, I can only say I’m sorry.”

As he spoke, he put the necklace on the table.

“No.”

Karl said with a smile in his voice:

“I’m very satisfied, twenty gold coins it is.”

After seeing Karl off, Gary waved his arms vigorously, then put away the necklace and hurried to the backyard.

…………

“Ring, earrings, necklace.”

Bray Foster, the younger son of the Foster family, lay on the armchair, playing with the necklace in his hand.

His eyes flickered, and he asked:

✿✿✿

“Is this a set?”

“It is a set!”

Gary nodded heavily:

“These three pieces of jewelry all use topaz, and the cutting technique is the same. The topaz inlaid in the earrings is of the highest quality.”

“The most expensive single piece is the necklace, which cost twenty gold coins. If the whole set is sold, it can be sold for at least one hundred.”

Although the rings and earrings were in pairs, they were relatively small, and the purchase price was not high. The price of the two together was not as high as that of a single necklace.

The profit from this purchase and sale was several times.

“Interesting.”

Bray Foster narrowed his eyes:

“The price of a complete set of jewelry is higher, any normal person would know that, why are they sold separately?”

“And, they weren’t even sold in the same place.”

The Foster family’s business was all over the city, and they had more than one consignment shop, and they also had business dealings with other consignment shops.

These three pieces of jewelry were accidentally discovered by their subordinates. The items purchased from different stores turned out to be a set.

“This…” Gary hesitated for a moment and said:

“Could it be stolen goods?”

A set of jewelry, sold in batches in different stores, and the seller hiding their face, it was obvious that it was shady.

“Maybe.”

Bray threw the necklace in his hand and beckoned Gary to come closer:

“Next time he comes, remember to say hello.”

“…” Gary’s face changed slightly, then he nodded:

“Yes.”

Karl didn’t know that selling goods while hiding his identity would also attract the attention of others inadvertently.

As for that set of jewelry…

He bought them in batches, so he naturally didn’t know it was a set when he sold them.

At this time, he came to Black City again after a few days.

“There are fewer and fewer people.”

Walking into the Laca Market, looking at the sparse flow of people, Karl shook his head slightly and came to Aya’s stall.

Hmm?

The unfamiliar stall owner made him frown slightly.

Aya wasn’t there.

“Friend.”

The stall owner saw someone stop and immediately greeted him warmly:

“If there’s anything you need, the price is negotiable.”

Karl glanced at the goods on the stall and slowly said: “The previous stall owner doesn’t do business anymore?”

“Hmm…” The stall owner’s smile faded, he looked Karl up and down:

“You know, it’s normal for a person or two to die in Black City, and it’s even more common for stalls to change hands.”

“That’s true.”

Karl nodded and walked forward.

As the other party said, it was not uncommon for people to die in Black City. Aya was just more agile, she was just an ordinary person after all, it was normal for her to die.

“Huh?”

Seeing that Karl was about to leave, the stall owner hurriedly got up and stopped him:

“You’re really impatient, friend, I didn’t say she was dead!”

“You’re looking for Aya, right? I know where she is, come with me, let me pack up my things.”

Karl stopped, watched the other party pack up the things on the stall, thought for a moment, and followed.

“If you ask me, what’s so good about that girl Aya, I also sell the things she sells.”

The stall owner carried the package and said as he walked:

“You really don’t want to consider me, friend? The price is negotiable, and there are discounts for large quantities.”

“How much further?” Karl didn’t respond, he just looked up at the sky.

The sky was dark.

The two had already walked out of the market and came to a deserted ruin.

“Almost there.”

The stall owner quickened his pace:

“It’s just ahead.”

“Da…”

Karl stopped:

“Let’s just stop here.”

He lifted his cloak, revealing the broadsword on his back:

“Since you’ve lured me out, there’s no need to hide, come out.”
