☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- I sometimes feel the same way. What if an economic crisis is looming? Maybe we should stock up on cereals and toilet paper. Don't you think so?

—If that's the case, then we need to go to the countryside and live off our own land, and use the last of our money to buy a rifle and ammunition to defend ourselves against raiders. At least, that's what I would do in my homeland... But I don't think the capital is in danger yet.

- Look, check out this list. Before the previous owner died, "Abundance" sold almost everything, including goods from Calcite... You know, there are rumors that... He was killed because he stepped outside his niche and tried to take a share of the market from the big Margel fish... To be honest, I don't want the same thing to happen to me.

—Sometimes you look at these "fish" and think: half of them are probably officials who are being bribed to cover up problems, and that, by the way, is a capital offense. —makes a significant gesture towards the destroyed guillotine. —But of course, let's not choose anything that already has an equivalent. So, let's take a look...

>Rainbow Gem
—What is this, if you don't mind me asking?
>All equipment from Calcite
—I haven't seen anyone else in the city with it, but correct me if I'm wrong.
>Mindjin equipment
—The same, but... It's better to negotiate with local manufacturers, and if they refuse right away, it's better not to risk it.
>Fashionable clothing
>Margel boots
—I don't remember seeing those either.
>Magical fruit
—When I talked to the "Leaf" merchant, I got the impression that it was a very rare item, and even he didn't have access to it. If you still have contacts with that part of the world, it could be a very profitable thing. The main thing is to make sure that it's not some poachers and animal abusers, otherwise, definitely not.
>Flags, furniture, medicine, food, drinks, books, enchantments
—We already have those, so we won't touch them.

—Who else is around us on the map... We already have the Island Store, what about Aiskir? They should know about equipment for adventurers, maybe we can contact them through the local guild. Carnia? I don't know anything about them. Anything from Zimivia? The rest is clear.

- That's a good idea! But... I don't know any blacksmiths. Maybe you know someone who wouldn't mind spending their Action Points to work for us?...

—Out of the three people I know, two only do high-end orders, and the third is an old friend of mine, and I don't know where he is. Do you happen to know anyone? —addresses the universe/Sanex.

- Got it, thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

—By the way, do you know the owner of "Chronos"? From what I understood from the technical negotiations of my colleagues, they often use gems for their advanced inventions. Maybe we can exchange contacts? If you can create an alliance, you will secure a small, steady source of income.
