White Dragon Lord

Chapter 253

At night, snow city.

On the first day when they came to the land of dreams, the two young men were badly hit.

That's - they may be sleeping out on the street tonight.

Edie Campbell, with a heavy burden on his back, is leaning on the white wall.

Beside him, there was a well lit wooden door. The room was full of excitement. There were the shouts of human mercenaries, the strange howls of jackals, and even the thunderous laughter of ogres. At the same time, there was a mixed aroma of ale and food.

The mixed fragrance penetrated into Edie's nose, and the noble young master felt a little hungry.

But as soon as he thought that he might sleep on the road like a homeless refugee tonight, he was not in the mood to eat. Although he was only the second son of viscount Campbell, he had been well-dressed and well fed since he was a child.

At this time, Edie's businessman friend came out of the door with a dejected face.

"It's full here, too."

Edie felt that the world was full of malice, but as expected, he stood up with his hands on the wall and looked at the bright moon rising in the East.

"Come on, let's look again. There must be some vacant rooms."

Said Milne, the merchant, with a mournful face.

"This is already the eighth one. If you want to go, I can't walk any more."

Edie's face was serious and serious.

"Believe me, Milne, it's only nine."

Milne hammered the wall beside him angrily.

"It's no more than three! my friend! That's what you've been saying since the third time! It turns out that three, four, five, six, seven and eight are the same. "

Edie's face broke down in an instant.

"What do you say? Are we really going to sleep on the street? It's winter now. "

"Not as bad as you think."

Milne shook his head and pointed sideways to the bench by the street.

"We can sleep on the bench. I checked it when we came here. The bench is installed for no more than two months, and it's cleaned every day. It's very clean. We can spread our clothes and cover our face for one night."

As soon as the words came to an end, two human beings dressed up for a long journey walked quickly past them, taking the lead in occupying the two benches on the side of the road.

Edie looked at the two of the same kind who took out their clothes and spread them on the bench, shrugged and looked at the twitching companion in a complicated mood.

"Let's go. We're looking for a pub. If we don't have a vacant room, we'll look for a bench."

"Well, the last one."

Milne felt a little tired and moved feebly.

Gululu ~.

Edie glances at his merchant friend's stomach. Milne is just an ordinary man, and he doesn't have such good physical strength as a middle-class soldier.

"Let's eat here first."

With that, Edie took the lead to the pub, and Milne quickly followed.

Before entering, Milne looked up at the wooden board hanging on the door of the tavern, which was painted with an abstract jackal and a wine glass, and a few big zigzag characters.

Then the lights in the tavern, Milne read out these words.

"The wolf and the wine."

Milne said in a broken voice.

"Sooner or later, I'll have my own pub in Xuetao city."

The son of the rich businessman was full of resentment towards the tavern.

After stepping over the threshold of the tavern and entering the noisy room, Edie saw a mahogany bar. Behind the bar stood a jackal in a red checkered vest.

That's right. It's Sao Bao.

If it's just a red vest, Edie doesn't think that the jackal is a wretch. In addition to the coquettish vest, the gray haired jackal only has red hair on his head and three gold rings on his ears.

Mercenaries and monsters rude laughter, let the noble young master frown, he said in a loud voice.

"Boss, give us..."

Before Edie had finished speaking, the red jackal interrupted him.

"No, the room is already full."

It is obvious that the jackals regard Edie as the guest of lodging. Since the opening of the route, there have been too many humans like this.

Edie is a little embarrassed, not because of the Jackal's misunderstanding, but because of his misunderstanding. The Jackal's voice is a female voice.

This jackal is a mother!

After that, the female jackal continued to wipe her oak wine glass and hang Edie at the door.

Milne's voice rings behind Edie, dissolving the embarrassment.

"Cough, madam, we just want to find something to eat."

"So."

The Jackal lady raised her head. She had a little impression of Milne who had been here once.

"We have fresh sea fish and clam shells. Of course, if you are not used to seafood, I also have beef and mutton, but the price is a little higher."

In order to avoid the conflict when checking out, jackal landlady takes the lead to make it clear.

It's just that Edie looks at the Jackal lady's smile and thinks it's similar to the unscrupulous businessman around her.

The businessman Milne didn't know the slander in his friend's heart. He looked at the gap between the Jackal landlady's thumb and forefinger and turned his eyes secretly.

Is that a little bit?! It's several times more expensive, OK!

The overseas islands are rich in marine products, so the price is cheap, while the number of cattle and sheep is rare, and the price is several times higher than that of the mainland. Even Milne, the son of a rich businessman, has some heartache.

"No, we're tired of beef and mutton. We'll have a roast sea fish and a plate of braised scallops."

Milne added, looking aside at the big stomach warrior.

"Twenty more mud turtle eggs, ten steamed buns and two glasses of wheat wine. That's it first. If it's not enough, add more."

Milne skillfully ordered the dishes, and he was responsible for every negotiation with the tavern owner. In the process of negotiation, the smart businessman collected a lot of useful information.

For example, the price of overseas islands, the location of other pubs.

After ordering, they looked inside the pub.

There was an empty table in the corner of the tavern. They passed through the other guests and sat down at the empty table.

Milne puts his bundle on the wooden bench and hammers his aching thigh, while Edie looks at the guests at the other tables.

Among these guests, there are not many humans, most of them are such monsters as jackal and Fishman, and even a cannibal holding a wine barrel and drinking with his head up.

While waiting for food, Edie carefully observed the ogre who was sitting higher than he was standing. To deal with these guys with amazing brute force, it would take at least five intermediate soldiers or one high-level soldier, and there was a possibility that the sewer capsized.

However, Edie is not afraid. Along the way, he has not seen many ogres, but there are many.

Before long, the fish man waiter brought the dishes with a tray.

At this time, sitting on a solid wood stool, the ogre looked up and drank heavily. He found that the wine barrel could not come out of water, and shook it. Then he realized that there was no wine left, and he smashed the empty wine barrel on the table.

Boom!

There was a loud noise over all the voices in the tavern, and the scene was suddenly quiet. Milne wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and picked up the spoons that had fallen to the ground.

But the ogre didn't notice what was going on around him. He wiped the wine stains from the corners of his mouth and chin with his big grindstone hand and cried out.

"Little girl! Another bucket! Hiccup ~! "

"Hawk! You son of a bitch! Roar what roar! Give me a fright

Although the Jackal's wife screamed fiercely, she was smiling and asked koufen to escort the wine.

The ogre hawk took the barrel and continued to drink. The frightened drinkers did not dare to find a ogre's trouble.

Edie pulled open a clam shell, sucked the delicious meat in the shell into his mouth, drank a mouthful of ale, pressed down his heart beat violently, and chose patience like other guests.

Later, they had their own dinner.

Soon, the pub regained its lively atmosphere.

Two people eat while listening to the conversation of other guests. There are all kinds of people in the tavern, and it's a good place to collect intelligence to tell the truth after drinking.

A human mercenary's face flushed with drink said mysteriously to his companions.

"Have you heard? Forget adventure team found a submarine relic in storm bay

Human mercenary B looks disappointed.

"Hey, I don't know why. I knew about you a day ago."

Although human mercenary B disdains, the corner of his mouth turns up quietly. Obviously, he is very proud that his news is one step ahead of others.

"However, most people in the forgetting adventure group can't go into the water, they can only stare at the ruins, ha ha ha."

Human mercenary C pours a mouthful of ale.

"Alas, it's a pity that the relics are on the bottom of the sea. Even if we rush there, we can't even drink a mouthful of soup."

One side of the table fish eyes a bright, obviously have ideas, another table of the human businessman said with a smile.

"If you really want to make a profit in the sea, you can buy the underwater breathing medicine. There is an alchemist in my shop. As long as you can afford it, hee hee..."

Another mercenary slapped the table.

"Come on, Marty, just your little shop and alchemist. I think he is an alchemist who was expelled from the college. Ha ha ha."

The crowd burst into laughter, and the businessman who had been exposed, Marty, was not angry. Instead, he took the opportunity to stand up and solicit business.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Marty, the owner of Pandora's Alchemy shop in white shark block. If you need anything, you can come to me. Just for this wonderful meeting today, I'll give you a 10% discount for those who come to my shop for the first time."

"Oh! Maddy, you asshole! For the sake of new friends, we have lost our old friends in the pit. You must give us an account today! "

"Yes, yes! Give us an account! "

The crowd roared one after another, but the merchant, Marty, couldn't resist and quickly begged for mercy.

"Tomorrow, old friends will get 10% off!"

"Ha ha ha, to our generous boss Marty!"

"Yes, to boss Mardi!"

Looking at the mercenaries who toast or celebrate their common victory, Milne shakes his head and admires the way the boss, Madi, does it.

Marty was not angry when he was exposed. Instead, he thought of his own business. Young Milne admired him for his breadth of mind or thick skin.

This is one of them.

Second, Ma Di's move has successfully attracted a wave of new customers for himself. As for the old customers who feel that they get a 10% discount and take advantage of it, have they really found a bargain?

Of course, the answer is yes, but it's not as cheap as they think. Marty said that only tomorrow there will be a discount. If the mercenaries don't have a task, they seldom buy expensive alchemy items.

So, www.00kxs.com Ma Di's 10% discount promises that the loss of profits is not much. In addition, this makes Ma Di's image in the hearts of mercenaries instantly increase. If mercenaries need alchemy items in the future, they will think of this "generous" Ma Di boss first.

Even if the mercenaries have a task and go to buy the alchemy items tomorrow, Maddy is not in a loss. The initial cost of a store is the most. At this time, Maddy is not well off. Maybe he is still carrying a loan. When the mercenaries buy the items, Maddy gets the money back.

From this we can see that Marty will definitely be a successful businessman.

Milne, with his glass in his hand, went to the table of his companion, intending to meet him.

A successful businessman can't do without good connections.

Edie's focus is obviously different from that of his business friends. He pays more attention to the news of the ruins.

But he was not a reckless mercenary. He thought he might really make a fortune in the ruins. Edie had received noble education, and he could always see through the situation. On his way here, he heard about the name of the forgotten adventure group many times.

Such an adventure group with official background must be able to contact the senior management of the fishman. When these fools who heard the news and bought a large number of underwater breathing medicine ran past, how would they compete with the fishman masters underwater?

The end result is likely to be nothing.

But this news is not without value to Edie. There must be senior leaders of the forgotten adventure group around the ruins. Such a powerful official adventure group is exactly what Edie, a newcomer, is eager to join.

Edie's eyes twinkle, thinking about whether to buy some underwater breathing medicine, go to the ruins of storm Bay, and perform well in front of the senior management of the forgotten adventure group, so as to win the appreciation of the senior management of the adventure group and join the forgotten adventure group.

It's a world of difference between taking the initiative to join and receiving an invitation to join.

A meal, two people eat very satisfied, they got a lot of information, just when they are going to get up to check out, the bar broke out a Hedong lion... Wolf roar.

"What? The money is not enough?! Hawk! You bastard, do you want to break the debt? "

Two people listen, understand how to return a responsibility.

Ogre - Hawk drank a lot of wine and didn't have enough money to pay.

But it was none of their business. They got up and went to the bar.

Ogre - Hawk is about to argue with the Jackal's wife, but the Jackal's wife waves impatiently and interrupts the ogre's conversation. She speaks to the two foreigners who are full of food and drink.

"Two guests from afar, I don't think you have a place to live, do you?"

"Oh, yes."

Edie was stunned at first, then surprised.

"Do you have a room available?"

"No

The landlady of the Jackal has two hands.

Edie: "it's..."

"But I have a way."

The Jackal lady pointed to the drunken ogre next to them.

"Hawk lives nearby. There's a vacant room in his family. If you can help him pay for the wine, I think he'll be happy to take you in, right? Hawk

Drunk ogre - Hawk nodded.

"Yes! I have a guest room at home

Let two people live one night, and not less meat, but can save a sum of wine money, fool just don't want to.

The two men peeped into each other.

……

In the bright moonlight, on the White Street of Xuetao city.

Edie and Milne, a pair of homeless travelers, follow behind the ogre hawk, whose huge volume blocks the moonlight and shadows them.

Milne felt like a dream at the moment, he whispered to his companion.

"So, we're going to be boarding with an ogre?"

Edie nodded, they agreed to the Jackal landlady's suggestion, help ogre - Hawk make up for the wine.

As for the reason for the agreement, both Edie and Milne already know the fact that monsters in the overseas islands never eat intelligent creatures.

But even so, they still feel nervous for the moment.

Humans to the ogre home boarding!

Businessman Milne covers his face.

Oh, my God! This world is crazy!
