World of Warcraft Murloc City Guide - Chapter 345
c345 herbal medicine supplier
After leaving Magatha’s residence, Yang Yi said goodbye to Nara Wildmane soon after. He then went to the auction house first, and then walked around Thunder Bluff alone.
This was Yang Yi’s second visit to Thunder Bluff. Compared with the last time, Thunder Bluff is now much more lively, and adventurers can be seen everywhere.
The tribe has begun to accept adventurers, and the tauren, who are members of the tribe, are no exception.
Adventurers come and go on various terraces in Thunder Bluff. They are in a hurry, adding a lot of vitality to this peaceful tauren city.
Yang Yi came to Thunder Bluff for other purposes.
He needs to buy some [Blind Grass] and [Ghost Mushroom] so that Slark can refine [Limited Invincibility Potion].
In addition, he also wants to buy some equipment to improve himself. If possible, it is better to buy more to go back and arm some of the fishmen in Ratchet Town.
After walking around for a while, Yang Yi walked into an herbal medicine store.
The tauren who like to roam around are very good at picking herbs. The shelves of this herbal medicine store are full of herbal bags. Various herbs were neatly arranged and sorted for customers to choose.
Seeing the customer coming, a female tauren came to greet them.
Yang Yi checked the female tauren’s attribute information and found that her name was Nida Icehoof, a high-level herbalist.
“Hello, may the wind guide your path.” The tauren Nida greeted.
“Hello, I want some [Blind Grass] and [Ghost Mushroom]. Are they sold here?” Yang Yi asked.
“Unfortunately, the two herbs you mentioned are high-level herbs. Herbs of this level are generally not sold in our Thunder Bluff stores.” The tauren Nida explained. “If you are in a hurry, you can go to the auction house to have a look. If you are lucky, maybe a traveler will just pick some and auction them.”
Before Yang Yi came, he also knew that the two herbs he wanted were not easy to find, so he was not too disappointed when he heard that they were not sold.
The tauren who sold herbs had a good attitude, so he did not leave immediately, but stayed to ask about the prices of various low- and medium-level herbs sold in the store.
After returning from the Port of Exile, Yang Yi began to plan to expand the scale of the alchemy industry in Ratchet Town. After all, the profits from the banned potions are very tempting.
If you want to expand the scale of the alchemy industry, you must first cultivate more alchemists, and this process must consume a large number of low-level and mid-level herbs.
Some of the herbs in Ratchet Town were collected by the murlocs themselves, and some were purchased with the help of goblin merchants. The supply of herbs is very unstable.
So Yang Yi is planning to find a reliable herbal supplier. The tauren who are good at collecting herbs are a good partner.
In response to Yang Yi’s inquiries, the tauren Nida patiently answered them one by one.
After Yang Yi learned about it, he found that the prices of this herbal medicine store were not bad. The competition in big cities like Thunder Bluff is very fierce. Compared with the small shops and merchants in the villages and towns outside, the price of herbs here is much cheaper.
Yang Yi pointed to the bags of herbs on the shelf and asked, “Are these herbs in your store picked by yourself or collected?”
“How can I pick so many herbs by myself? Most of them are purchased. Business is not good now. There are several stores specializing in herbal medicine in Thunder Bluff.” The tauren Nida said.
“So that’s it. The herbs are mainly purchased.” Yang Yi thought.
“Like these [Silver Leaf Grass], [Spirit Tranquility Flower], [Earth Root Grass] and [Demon King Grass], each with 1,000 plants, do you have them in stock in the store?” Yang Yi asked suddenly.
Minotaur Nida’s eyes lit up, thinking that business was coming, and she hurriedly said: “There is a sufficient supply of level 1 herbs like this.”
Yang Yi nodded and asked: “Then there are also 1,000 plants of [Swift Grass], [Heather Grass], [Thorny Algae] and [Bone-Dropping Grass]. Do you have them in stock in the store?”
Minotaur Nida became more and more happy, and said enthusiastically: “Yes, we are not short of level 2 herbs. We can receive a lot of them every day in our store.”
Yang Yi nodded again and asked: “[Wild Steel Flower], [Royal Blood Grass] and [ [Living Root Grass] or one thousand plants each, should there be stock? ”
This is a big deal, the minotaur Nida said excitedly: “Yes, yes, we also have level 3 herbs. If you want, we can sell them to you at a low price. They are all new goods just received in the past few days.”
“Not bad, not bad, the store can receive so many herbs every day. It seems that your reputation should be good, and the purchase price should be good.”
Yang Yi was very satisfied with the other party’s answer, and then he took out two herbal bags from his bag and put them on the counter.
“Here are [Thorn Algae] and [Living Root Grass]. How much do you charge for them in the store?” Yang Yi asked.
“Ah? You don’t want to buy herbs?”
Nida’s minotaur nostrils opened as wide as possible, and she was stunned.
Just selling two bags of level 2 and 3 herbs, you made me excited.
…
Level 2 [Thorn Algae] is usually found in seaweed farms, and level 3 [Living Root Grass] is a companion plant of sludge grass. A lot of these two kinds of herbs were collected in Ratchet Town. Apart from the daily consumption of alchemists, there were still a lot left, so Yang Yi sold them.
Yang Yi came out of the store after selling the herbs, and the weak farewell voice of the minotaur Nida came from behind.
“Have a safe journey, our ancestors are protecting you.”
Look, this herbal medicine store not only has a good price for purchasing herbs, but their attitude is also very good. We can cooperate well in the future.
Yang Yi happily patted the bulging money bag on his waist, and the sound of coins colliding was really pleasant.
Next, Yang Yi wanted to go and see the equipment. There were more equipment stores in Thunder Bluff than herbal shops.
Yang Yi walked around and found that the armor sellers were divided into cloth armor merchants, leather armor merchants and mail armor merchants, and the weapons sellers were divided into two-handed weapon merchants, sword and dagger merchants, hammer and staff merchants, axe merchants, bow and arrow merchants, gun merchants, etc.
“It’s worthy of being a big city. The commercial prosperity here is incomparable to that of Ratchet Town.” Yang Yi was extremely envious. “It’s a pity that these equipment stores generally only sell ordinary quality armor and weapons to the outside world. They can be used to arm fighting murlocs, but I don’t like them.”
After visiting the shops in Thunder Bluff, Yang Yi also roughly understood the situation here.
The shops here generally only sell low- and medium-level, ordinary quality goods to the outside world. It’s not that there are no good things, but they are restricted from sale.
If you want to buy good goods, you must have a good relationship with the Tauren of Thunder Bluff, to put it bluntly, you have to brush up your reputation first.
Yang Yi’s reputation in Thunder Bluff is not enough, so there is nothing good in these shops.
Yang Yi didn’t buy what he wanted in the shop, so he went to the auction house.
Yang Yi remembered that the auction house in Thunder Bluff would hold an auction at the end of each month. He specially chose a time to come here this time, and it happened that there was an auction today.
The auction house in Thunder Bluff is by the lake of the Central Terrace.
The auction was about to start when Yang Yi came.
A huge tent was crowded with people who came to participate in the auction, many of whom were adventurers. This auction was obviously much more popular than the last time Yang Yi saw it.
It is said that due to the arrival of a large number of adventurers, the auction once a month can no longer meet the demand, and the Tauren of the auction house are already considering holding an additional auction.
The list of auction items was posted on the bulletin board outside the auction house, and many people gathered there.
Yang Yi squeezed in and stretched his neck to check the items registered on the list.
The items on the list were dazzling, including weapons, armor, containers, gems, consumables, groceries, recipes, etc., arranged in order.
Yang Yi ran to the auction house as soon as he said goodbye to Nara. This time he came to the list on the notice board to see if the items he entrusted to be auctioned were listed.
Yang Yi looked carefully on the list.
“[Delicious Wind Snake], quantity: 100; quality: ordinary; level: level 2; starting price per item: 10 silver; fixed price: not set.”
“[Shiny Small Pearls], quantity: 100; quality: excellent; level: level 4; starting price per item: 8 silver; fixed price: not set.”
“[Colored Pearls], quantity: 100; quality: excellent; level: level 3; starting price per item: 30 silver; fixed price: not set.”
“[Black Pearls], quantity: 8; quality: excellent; level: level 4; starting price per item: 1 gold; fixed price: not set.”
“[Golden Pearls], quantity: 10; quality: excellent; level: level 4; starting price per item: 4 gold, 99 silver, 99 copper; fixed price: not set.”
These are the items Yang Yi entrusted to auction.
According to the rules of the auction house, when entrusting an auction, you can decide the starting price and fixed price of the item yourself, and if you want, you can also mark the name of the seller.
As the name implies, the starting price is the lowest price the seller is willing to accept. If no one bids, the item will be unsold.
As for the fixed price, it means that as long as someone is willing to bid this price, the item can be sold directly, and there is no need to wait for the auction.
Regardless of whether the item is auctioned successfully or not, the auction house will charge a certain commission.
Among the items Yang Yi took out for auction, [Delicious Wind Snake] is a product of Dead Water Village. He knows that this kind of food with transformation effect has a market among adventurers, so he set a price of 10 silver that he thinks is acceptable.
[Shiny Small Pearls] and [Colored Pearls] can be mass-produced in Ratchet Town. This time he took 100 of each and put them in the auction house to test the waters.
These two types of pearls are considered common goods. Yang Yi saw that there were several sellers who also commissioned the auction of these two types of pearls at this auction, and the number of auctions was not small, so he set the starting price to match others.
[Black Pearls] are produced from the [Giant Clam Shell] species native to Dustwallow Swamp. At present, the shell farm in Ratchet Town has just begun to try to cultivate [Giant Clam Shells]. These 8 [Black Pearls] all came from Dustwallow Marsh, and they were all that Yang Yi had.
As for [Golden Pearls], they were given to Yang Yi by Lu Xiaoming, as Ratchet Town cannot produce them on its own at the moment.
There were fewer sellers of [Black Pearls] and [Golden Pearls], especially [Golden Pearls]. There were only a few auctioned items, and the prices set by each seller varied greatly. Yang Yi wanted to sell the items as soon as possible, so he set a minimum starting price.
