He did not want to make things difficult for Carter, but he also felt that it was unfortunate. Originally, they could repair the house again within the next two days with those white jade slabs, but aside from having to wait a period of time, they also had to spend more money there. Just thinking about it made him feel annoyed.
“You guys, Baron Edward has already spoken. Didn’t you hear him? Count yourself lucky this time. The next time something similar happens, I will expel all of you from the Lucky Business Group. Hurry up and tidy up this place, then get lost.”
Carter waved his hand impatiently. A few guards quickly acknowledged him. They supported the injured one and were about to turn around and leave.
At this moment.
“Wait.”
Watson walked out. “Uncle Carter, I think it’s just a few stones. It’s a bit too much to punish them for two months’salary.”
Too much?
“Watson, you only say that because you don’t know the value of these white jade stone slabs! White jade can only be found in large mines. It was very troublesome to excavate them back and forth. Monte Town is the only one stocking this within a radius of a few hundred kilometers. It would take two days to go back and forth from here to Monte Town. That’s a total of four days! In addition, a white jade slab is worth ten gold pieces. There’s also the cost of transporting it again, and the money to hire someone to protect it…the total would reach at least a hundred gold coins.”
Carter had a bitter expression on his face. He counted on his fingers, thinking to himself that he could not squander his money like that no matter how rich he was. Watson was a child whose considerations were too simple.
“Then if I can repair these white jade slabs, will you be able to let these people go?” Watson asked.
“Watson, if the white jade slabs could be easily repaired, then Carter wouldn’t be so angry,” Reynolds could not help but interject.
How were the broken stone slabs supposed to be repaired, sticking them bit by bit?
The amount of manpower and resources needed to do that was even more than buying a new stone slab.
The guards looked at each other, then looked at Watson in surprise. However, compared to the two merchants, their eyes were filled with gratitude. They had not expected the young master of that family to speak up for them. What a good person. Of course, if they knew that the stone that had caused them to fall was Watson’s doing, they would not have thought so.
“It’s Alright, Uncle Reynolds. I have a way.”
Watson faced Reynolds, who didn’t believe him, and smiled shyly.
“This…”
“It’s alright, Reynolds. Let him try!” Edward said, stroking his chin. Compared to his two merchant friends, he knew Watson better. With all those magical abilities Watson had, perhaps he really did have a way if he said it so confidently.
“Alright then.”
Reynolds sighed. Beside him, Carter did not have any expectations either.
“System, fuse it for me.”
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Watson walked to the white jade fragments on the ground, pointed at the largest fragment that was no larger than a fist, and activated the system’s ability.
A ray of light flashed, and all the crushed stones on the ground collided in front of him. Some of them were not white jade, but ordinary stones.
[Congratulations, Master! You have successfully fused a Silver-tier ore: Arcana Mithril.]
