Chapter 3 - Golden Ivory Tavern
The gangsters active on the border are generally looting past merchants and travelers, and rarely have the courage to attack the town. After all, the border guards are the worst. That is also the regular army of the empire. There is really no pressure on the ragged robbers.
Most robbers keep a low profile, avoid being targeted and become the target of annihilation, but there are always some guys who are not afraid of death, unscrupulous burning and looting, and repeatedly challenging the majesty of the Duke of Westland.
Without exception, these gangsters were all on the wanted list of the west border, and their heads were printed as bounty orders, which covered the border towns.
In this world, there is no shortage of adventurers who want to become rich and famous overnight. The heads of those gangsters are the shortcut to their fame.
Even a five-year-old child knows that every bounty has a **** smell that is so thick that it can’t be washed away. There are adventurers and bandits.
Under such cruel fighting, the gangsters who can survive are all well-known and have high rewards.
Ogre Tyson, nicknamed ‘Iron Man’, a newly emerging thief, who likes to kill their enemies and eat their ears raw, with a bounty of 10,000 Kundera.
Rooney the bear, nicknamed “Balloon”, shot a second to kill the leader of the Pioneer of the Arsenal Knights at the time of his debut, and he was well-known in the West. The head of the gas gave a high price of 50,000 Jindran, rewarding his head, but only coveting this bounty The mercenaries have all become the dead souls of the bears.
“Huh, it has risen to 150,000 Jindelan!”
Downton saw that Rooney’s bounty slip was posted on the upper right corner of the billboard. The wind and the sun were already yellowing, but the amount of the gold coins marked was still clear and did not tear off. This shows that the reward is valid and the bear is still at large.
The gangsters with a “worth” of more than 10,000, even if their strength is worse, it is also a war rank. There is no suspense in killing Downton, so he continues to turn down.
Tauren Kita village, orc female shaman, bounty 5,000 gold deran!
Downton sighed, gave up, and can get a reward, at least the starting price of three hundred gold coins. With his strength, he can’t even make a fish worth ten gold coins. He wants to live on the bounty, not starve to death No way.
Return to the hut, in order to save money, Downton does not cook anymore, nibbling a piece of black bread, thinking about making money.
As a Deranke, naturally using the currency suffixed with Delan, a family of three, the cost of living a month is about fifteen Kindran, but ordinary civilians have not seen gold coins a few times in their lives, commonly used It was Yin Delan instead.
“I heard that the postman in the imperial capital received only a dozen coins a day, and I don’t know the true or false!” Downton shook his head, throwing away unrealistic fantasies and preparing to go out for a job.
At this time in the past, Downton sorted out the parcels early and embarked on the journey of delivering letters, but in the future, he never had to do it again.
“A full three-year postman career!”
Downton walking on the street, suddenly idled, very unaccustomed, but more sighing, relying on these legs to deliver letters, he fed his sister Elaine for her admission to the most famous Saint Franken George Magic School, he has feelings for this job.
If Ballmer did not find faults so frequently that it was uncontrollable, Downton felt that he would probably be a postman for life.
“Where have you been? I’ve been looking for you for a long time!” Justin saw Downton and shouted immediately. Behind him, he followed six postmen, all of whom had a good relationship on weekdays.
“What’s the matter?” Downton frowned at Will’s bruised mouth, “Why don’t you go home and rest?”
“It’s all I hurt you!” Will is guilty.
“Don’t blame yourself, Ballmer won’t let me go without you.” Downton smiled openly and patted him on the shoulder. “You think I can’t be a postman, I’m going to starve to death?”
“How is it possible, you are the Fox of the Western Realm!”
“Just your first postman’s name will be removed!”
The boys talked nicknamed Downton, and the hearty laughter spread well in the drizzle. Although the way of comforting friends is poor, it undoubtedly represents a sincere friendship.
“Go, please go to the Golden Ivory Tavern for a big meal!” The tall Durham punched Downton in the chest and wrapped his arm around his shoulder.
“Forget it!” Downton refused. Everyone is a child of ordinary people. They are not wealthy at all, so they can afford pubs.
“Look at us!” Du Lun hugged Downton tightly, not letting him break free, and other teenagers shoved behind.
“Only the one you taught us about picking up close mail is worth a hundred meals!”
This group of teenagers is really grateful to Downton. Each of them has been blessed by him, and all of them are postmen brought by him.
Drankfork is located in the northern part of the Western Continent. It is a country with a comprehensive national strength ranked third and is often given the title of poverty and backwardness.
Except for the Wangdu Circle, the remaining land is divided into four realms of east, west, south and north, and is the hereditary territory of the four princes.
Chenwu Town is located in Sequoia County and belongs to Prasido, Duke of the Western Realm. Downton’s annual taxes all flow into the family’s purse.
The fifth mainland jihad 10,000 years ago, the Dragon Hill as one of the main battlefields, was once bombarded by the dragon army commanded by the Red Dragon King, and the neighboring Sequoia County was also affected.
It is said that under the devastation of tens of thousands of kinds of fire magic, the whole county was scorched to the earth. It was not until the Frankfort founding the country and migrating to the refugees that it was considered to have recovered a little.
On the land where the burning dragon breath is boiling, even today, tens of thousands of years ago, many crops still cannot be planted. Even the most resilient oats can only be harvested once a year, and most of the grains are shrivelled, just like malnutrition Thin beggar.
Fortunately, the inhabitants of the border do not rely on farming. The underground of Chenwu Town is rich in magic energy ore veins. Otherwise, the king will not migrate, but the mineral veins have dried up with the exploitation of the past millennium, and the border economy More and more depressions have caused more young people to leave their homes and go to big cities to discuss their lives.
Too many abandoned mining towns, like lonely spirits and wild ghosts, stood on the border land and became a nest of Warcraft, bandits, and refugees, making Sequoia County even more ruined and chaotic.
Passing through the vast sunset wilderness is the orc empire, ivory, animal skin, the magic of Warcraft blood, and other specialty products, after being sold to the human empire, can make merchants make a lot of money, so this trade Line rises.
Morning fog town is the last large supply point to enter the sunset wilderness. Once the peak season every year, businessmen, mercenaries, and adventurers will flock to fill every corner of the town, and several pubs are overcrowded.
Downton had just stepped into the golden ivory tavern, and a noisy sound mixed with alcohol and sweat smelled at him, making him frown slightly, and he really didn’t like the noise.
A dwarf covered with mineral powder drank too much, fell drunk at the table, and fell asleep, not knowing that the thief had just lost his purse.
Dancing girls stood on the high platform of the hall, accompanied by lively music, struggling to tap dance, and every time the white thighs were raised high, a series of whistles would be heard.
Several unremarkable mercenaries squatted under the stage, looked up, trying to peep under the skirt of the dancers.
“Come eight glasses of dragon tongue spirits!” Justin yelled at the waiter.
Among a group of teenagers, he is very likely to have fun and is not too frugal, so he needs someone to borrow money to live in the second half of each month.
“Sit in the past!” Durham found a few empty seats and took Downton a handful. After walking a few steps, he found that he had not followed.
“What’s the matter?” Justin looked down at Downton’s eyes, “Well, a desolate travel businessman, what’s so good about it? Go away, drink!”
“You go first, let me see what goods are sold!” Downton escaped a few drunken guests and walked to the corner of the merchant’s stall.
This is a pretend mysterious guy, wearing a black robe and cloak, his entire face hidden under the hood, his lungs should have been injured, and every time he breathed, he would make a cry like a broken windbox .
The floor was covered with a stained bohemian blanket, on which were placed mechanical pocket watches, huge colored feathers, and striped stones…
Without exception, are all goods that look slightly mysterious.
“A broken piece of wood actually costs a hundred kydlands. Are you mad?” A fat businessman sprayed on his mouth and shouted, but he didn’t put down the totem-style wood in his hand and groped for it.
The businessman didn’t speak, he didn’t even raise his head.
“Hey, don’t pretend to be mysterious. This method can’t fool me. It’s a price. Ten Yinderan, I want it.” The merchant’s glass-shaped eyeball turned and pressed the price hard.
There were a dozen other guests looking at the goods at random, but there was not much interest in shopping. They were considered to go south and north, UU reading www.uukanshu. com has seen a lot of people in the world, such as the pretend mysterious dress like the businessman in front of him, and cheated those countrymen who have never been far away.
“Thirteen Yin Deran, can’t be more.” The fat businessman raised the price.
“Grand Terrace, anyway, we are also the first businessman of Chenwu Town, worth millions, as to be careful with a downcast businessman?” Some people ridiculed Grand Terrace.
“You know what a fart, every copper plate should be spent on the blade, if the value generated does not double, it will be a loss!” Grandi reached out his thumb and scraped the two lip under his nose neatly trimmed Beard, once again offer, “Well, I lost, twenty silver Deran, really can’t be more.”
Traveling merchant did not speak, shook his head.
Downton’s eyes fell on a book placed on the upper left corner of the blanket, about six centimeters thick, A3 paper-sized, the cover wrapped in leather, very old, full of oil stains and black dirt, and even dark red blood spot.
Unlike his peers who like to play, Downton spends the rest of his time apart from working to make money and exercising to learn magic energy. He likes to collect books, thinking that it can make people smart and knowledgeable!
“You really think you are one of the five most mysterious legends of the mainland’s travel merchants, and the goods they sell are rare legends? Thirty Yinderans, I won’t do it if I don’t talk about it!” Grande issued an ultimatum. A pair of small eyes stared at each other, trying to find the bottom line of the price.
“It seems very interesting!” Downton stooped down to get the books, but with one hand faster, be the first!
“I want this book!”
