《Potestera- Race for Power》Ch 70 Special Customers
Advertisement
Throughout the week I found other smaller streets where I was allowed to set up shop and did my best to sell what I had.
Unfortunately the streets that allowed people to set up street stands without permits were not as popular and populated as some of the bigger squares throughout the City.
Even though I had managed to make a big payday on my first day as a street vendor, the following days weren’t as successful.
Still, no matter where I went, the meat that I had was a popular item for sale and every day I did make a decent amount of sales profit.
Being a Hunter in Martial Citadel was good business if you knew what you were doing.
Every kill you could make was almost a guaranteed sale.
In the week prior to my second City Market Day, I made an average of about 20 gold coins excluding the first day.
All in all I was satisfied with the results.
Getting gold coins was not something I could complain about.
I also managed to sell more of the spears and even many of the baskets and clay vessels I had made on a whim.
Many of the Wives and Elderly of the City were really into the design and look of the crafts I made, so they became quite popular amongst them.
Seeing that my skills were paying off dividends every day, brought me a unique sense of accomplishment different from the feeling of winning a fight.
It was a more peaceful sense of accomplishment.
Eventually the second market day I planned to take part in arrived.
This was where I was planning to establish my biggest reputation in terms of my business quality.
I arrived early that day as I had managed to persuade Yupow to give me a break even though he didn’t like the idea of slacking on my training.
Even so, I had the impression that Yupow had more or less figured out what I was planning to do after observing all my crazy and bizarre actions in the past couple months.
Being a good teacher he didn’t want to get in the way of my growth, so he allowed me to do more or less as I pleased, as long as I completed his training assignments.
I didn’t have to wait long after I set up shop; people who recognized my stuff and memorized my face immediately came either looking for more meat, buying many of my weapons, or checking out the Raw ingredients that I carried.
Eventually I accumulated a good amount of common currency and surprisingly, another item.
Many Young Martial artists approached me and asked me if I was willing to trade Martial Manuals or Manuscripts with them.

The Manuals they offered were of different varieties, varying quality, and lengths.
Some were only one move techniques, others were close to describing a whole Martial Art Form.
At first I was reluctant to accept such forms of payment, but after thinking it over, and thinking of some parameters and their worth and value, I decided to accept most of them, as long as they were of decent quality and not some made up chicken dance.
Even though I accepted it as a valid payment method, I made sure not to accept it for anything I had that was of a higher value.
For that stuff I exclusively kept it at monetary tender only.
Popular items I traded for the manuals were the Spears, Clay Pots, Baskets,Yellow Rabbit Meat, Morning Ray Fox Pelts, Packcoon Pelts, Beast Fang and Tooth Jars and Jewelry, Soothing Tea Grass bags, and Vowels Grace Root.
Soon I accumulated a small library of manuals of all kinds of different Martial Arts.
I wasn't even sure if I would have the time to study any of them at any point in the near future.
Either way I didn’t think they were worthless, whether I studied them or traded them I was sure I could get value out of them.
After some time, other types of customers started to show up and look at some of my raw ingredients or beast parts before waiting to talk to me after closing our smaller transactions.
A guy who was the Martial Apothecary of an Organization called Tigron Claw Institution of Profound Martial Arts, came wanting to buy all the hearts of any Feline type animal species I had.
I had the hearts of the Riverside Cougar, Pigmy Lion Cat, Swimming Felix, Clanpurs, and my biggest Feline catch the Prime Panther.
A lot of the beasts I managed to kill because of the Guider, were not animals I would take on in a head on fight.
The Prime Panther was one such beast.
A 300 pound top rated predator that I only managed to kill sneakily from a distance.
I was sure its body parts would fetch me a good amount of money.
In total the Martial Apothecary gave me 100 gold coins for the hearts of all the small and medium cats, and 100 gold coins for the heart of the Prime Panther.
Animal organs, especially the organs of rare and powerful beasts, went for higher prices than just regular meat.
Often many Hunters didn’t know how to properly harvest them or preserve them, so it was actually a rarity to see large amounts of these Raw beast parts, especially in Martial Citadel.

Soon other special customers started to show interest in the Raw ingredients I carried.
A Cook from another organization came and bought many pounds of Meat as well as the Livers and Kidneys of the Regal Elk, Mountain Buffalo, and Green Hide Pig.
In total he purchased 500 gold coins worth of goods from me.
The Martial Doctor from another Organization came saying he heard I carried quality Raw ingredients, and bought from me many bags and grams of different plants and roots, like the Clerical Root, Awakening Plant Stem, Wise Man's Shoot, and Bowels Grace Root all for 50 gold coins.
Luckily I had many of each type of plant, as I had spent more than a month just foraging and picking them up.
It was good that I could sell them at a decent price.
Experts, Specialized Professionals, Martial Cooks, Martial Doctors, Martial Apothecarys, Martial Physicians, Martial Scholars, Martial Teachers, and Opportunistic Merchants, all came to buy for the Raw Materials I carried whether it was Beast Parts, Plants, or other ingredients.
My prices were fair and the material abundant.
Soon people started to ask me who my supplier was, or how I had acquired such materials.
I usually told them the truth that I had gathered them myself, after which they would get angry with me as they didn’t believe me.
Eventually I just gave them a vague answer, or a roundabout explanation to avoid contempt and nosiness.
I didn’t blame them for their skepticism, I only managed to gather so many things because I had a hack, the Guider.
After midday a new set of customers arrived; these ones looked even more special and snobby than the ones before.
Most of them looked like Martial Students or Disciples from prestigious Organizations, their Martial Robes gave them away.
Immediately they approached and started asking for the type of weapons like the one Limen bought.
I assumed they were friends of Limen, and although they were annoyingly snobby, they weren’t rude, so I decided to oblige and show them a few good things.
I decided against showing off my best stuff right of the back and went with something right in the middle of quality and power.
I knew it would still be good enough for them though.
I pulled out a couple of my magical spears, with tips made out of shattered stone.
When bathed in the magical blood the stone smoothed out not looking like it was napped, and strengthened, becoming as hard as metal.
The spears I took out were bathed in Mana Frog Blood, so although they had powerful magical power, they didn’t have any apparent attribute, although the stone tip could have affected that, I just hadn’t tested it out extensively enough.
I explained to them those details as well as the details of the expert yew shaft and the resin it was covered in which fortified the weapons structure.
After doing so the young Experts went wild with greed, wanting to buy the weapons immediately.
Still I set the price of the weapons at 2 platinum coins, since I figured a Magical Weapon was still a Magical Weapon, and it was immediately obvious not all the guys in front of me could afford to buy the weapons.
In my head I chuckled that despite some of the guys' stuck-up demeanor they were too broke to afford my stuff.
The ones who weren’t hindered by the price, immediately paid up and snatched themselves a spear from my hand in glee.
Even though I knew my ability to make Magical Weapons was worthwhile, I didn't anticipate that Experts in this town would prize a Magical Item so much.
I thought I almost saw one guy's eyes almost pop out of his face once he got to see the weapon up close.
The Magical imbuement definitely gave the weapons a luster other weapons wouldn’t have, I also made sure to craft the weapons as aesthetically pleasing as possible, etching and carving with cool designs the Toltemic liked to use.
I managed to sell 6 of these spears for a total of 12 platinum coins.
Now I had accumulated a total of 14 platinum coins and a lot of common currency.
Combined with the money I already had, I was more confident that in terms of the Ranker World, I wasn’t a rich person, but I definitely wasn’t poor.
The young snobby Experts stayed for a while looking longingly at my shop; some even tried to negotiate for the weapons offering whatever valuable Relic or Martial Manual they had.
I firmly refused all their offers, and eventually they left in anger clearing out the way for the rest of the customers behind them.
Most people couldn’t afford the price of 2Platinum coins, since platinum wasn’t so easy to get ahold of to begin with.
But after seeing the kinds of transactions I had just made, most people saw my shop in a different light, and were assured that everything I sold was of quality, to the point where they even stopped trying to negotiate prices with me, giving me whatever price I sold any item at.
