Chapter 387 The fragrance of gold coins
Yang Naigall, the city of dreams.
It can satisfy all the fantasies of anyone on the mainland about the bustling city.
The cliff-like city wall allows any leader who has made some achievements to be named a famous general.
Inside the towering city wall, there are buildings that are taller than the city wall, and every section is a masterpiece that can be admired by artists.
The crowds at the city gate were enough to shock every self-proclaimed economist.
There is only one kind of person who is angry—that is, human supremacist.
Because here, you can see all races walking harmoniously on the same road.
The human race, lizard man covered with scales, dwarfs with big beards and alcohol, shadow-toothed orcs with fur, like upright big dogs, mermaids sitting in the big water tank behind the carriage , and even saw the elves and the drow with a glance.
Even Lei Wen was shocked by the magnificent scene for a while.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way-"
A giant carriage led by four horses came to Lei Wen against the flow of people. The wheels of the carriage were wrapped in carefully relief gold, and the coachman was wearing silk clothes. Lei Wen quietly observed with the eyes of truth and found that he turned out to be a level 3 knight.
The carriage stopped in front of Lei Wen, the door opened, and a dwarf who was less than 1 meter tall jumped off from his head. His body proportions were perfect, and he was simply an adult with a scale reduction.
If you only look at facial features, you will even be a little handsome.
"The Goddess of Lucky is on." The dwarf looked at Lei Wen with an amazement in his eyes:
"You are Lord Lei Wen, aren't you? Oh my God, I didn't expect you to be so young!"
As he said, he took off his hat and bowed:
"I, Pier, I am my Majesty. The order is here to welcome you into the city! "
Laiwen did his homework long before coming to the capital. Although this Pier is just a dwarf, he is the red in front of His Majesty the King People are the most beloved court clown.
So Lei Wen turned over and dismounted and nodded, "Mr. Pierre is so polite. I didn't expect that you would come to greet me in person. This is a rare honor!"
"Haha, it's said that Lord Lei Wen will be very difficult to get along with at a young age. It seems that the rumors should not be believed." Pier laughed:
"Then please get in the car and go into the city with me. You can take him to take him in the car. Of course, someone arranged a garrison for them. "
Levin knew that it was impossible for all the soldiers he brought to follow into the city, so he nodded and ordered, then turned to Pierre "Okay, Mr. Pier, let's go!" Pier was about to agree, but suddenly he was stunned:
"Well...ah, Lord Lei Wen, I don't seem to say clearly enough, that is... the gift you brought, you don't have to go to the city with you."
Because he saw that Lei Wen brought Most of the soldiers and servants have left, but there are still more than 20 carriages left behind.
"I understand this." Lei Wen smiled and said, "The gifts to Your Majesty and all the nobles have been transported away with people. I am preparing to go to the city to ship on these 20 large cars. The goods sold."
"Ah?" Pier dug his ears: "What did you say?"
"The goods." Lei Wen blinked and said innocently: "Can you be Is it not allowed to sell goods in the city of Naigar? ”
"Ah..."
Piler was stumped.
There are many nobles who came to the royal capital from the place, and Raven was not the first one to receive.
But it was the first one to come to Wangdu to sell goods.
And one pull of 20 big cars!
You are here to be appointed, can you be more serious? ?
For a moment, Pierre really didn't know whether to admire Raven's big heart or to mock him for his ignorance.
This is Yan Naigall, what kind of thing is there? These 20 trucks of goods are probably going to be completely destroyed by this baron!
But the first time we met, it was difficult to talk to the deepest words, so Pier had to swallow his complaints back: "No problem! Let's get in the car!"
Pier's carriage is big and comfortable, and it's like a mobile mansion.
A few personal guards such as Weiston, Hyena, Julia followed behind on horseback.
Since getting on the carriage, Pier has disagreed and Lei Wen has not taken the initiative to speak.
For the first time we met, Pier was the celebrity in front of His Majesty the King, and he would not flatter him ordinary; and even if Lei Wen could hold his face and spared no effort to please the court clown, he would not be able to change it. What to come.
So Leiwen bets on the streets of Sinagaal.
Along the way, the more prosperous the streets are in every city you pass by, the dirtier it is.
Shit and urine always flow into the street.
In addition to human activities, the biggest source of dirt is horse carriages and ox carriages used as means of transportation.
The animals pulling carts don't know any rules. The feces can be seen everywhere. On the main roads of big cities, horse manure can accumulate half a foot deep in one day.
But the streets of the royal capital are different, clean and tidy, without the slightest annoying smell.
On the carriage, there was a royal badge, but passers-by only spontaneously avoided it, but they would not bow to salute. It was obviously used to it.
"Sir Leiwen, please." Pierre handed over a cup of hot tea.
Lei Wen subconsciously took it, took a sip, and he was fixed on his place.
What does this taste like?
The base is a popular black tea in the empire, but it obviously contains a lethal amount of sugar and a lot of salt, and even a rich star anise and cinnamon fragrance.
It was like a sip of hot water in the pot.
"Sir Leiwen, how does it taste?" Pier blinked with eager expectation.
"Uh... it's very good!" Lei Wen replied with a hard temper, then stuffed the remaining tea in the cup in one mouthful.
Luckily I didn't eat much in the morning, otherwise Lei Wen would have vomited all over the floor.
"If you like, drink more!" Pier immediately filled Lei Wen with another cup of tea.
The smile on Lei Wen's face froze.
After making a choice between "spraying in the carriage" and "spraying outside the carriage", Raven finally turned his attention to Pierre's face:
"Why don't you drink it? ? ”
Piler spread his hands:
"The taste is so disgusting, I don't like it."
? ? ?
Levin stared at Pier, not knowing what expression to do for a moment.
You don’t like it, come and persuade me?
"Haha!" Pierzhan smiled and accused him of the crime before Lei Wen became angry: "Sorry, sorry, just kidding."
As he said that, he quickly changed Lei Wen to a cup: "This time it's pure blood tea, absolutely nothing is wrong." "But, I'm not trying to trick you out." , the previous way of drinking was the mainstream of the royal capital. "
"The king capital is like this. There are some rules that everyone knows are inappropriate, but they have to abide by."
" Moreover, you used selling goods to fool me before."
Lei Wen heard the reminder in Pier's words, and felt a little amused and amazed in his heart - are people in the royal capital so strong in revenge?
"Mr. Pier, I didn't fool you."
"Those 20 big trucks are really the goods I'm going to sell."
Pier's He was a little hesitant. He had read all the information about Lei Wen before coming and knew that Lei Wen was not only an excellent leader, but also an excellent businessman who could not do losing money.
"What exactly are you bringing this time?"
Lei Wenzhan smiled and shouted to the outside: "Hyna, go and get a No. 1 item!"
Soon, No. 1 item appeared in the carriage.
It looks like a board covered with white silk. "That's it, Mr. Pier, please see." As he said, Raven uncovered the satin covered with the goods.
"Hiss——"
Pier gasped, his eyes full of surprise and astonishment.
It was a mirror, the surface of the glass was clearer and more realistic than any mirror that Pier had ever seen or even the magic mirror.
"And the Angels shine!?" Pier rubbed his eyes.
Although he had heard of this name before, he had only seen the real thing in His Majesty's bedroom.
Of course, the angel in front of me has a length of only 70 cm, which is far from comparable to the one that is several meters long and wide hanging in the Royal High Court, but it is also amazing enough!
"How much do you plan to sell this?"
Levin smiled and said, "19999 gold coins!"
This price made Pierre's original enthusiasm cool down.
The royal capital is luxurious and the nobles are extravagant, but it does not mean that the nobles are all fools.
Although a de facto armistice has reached a de facto armistice with Insa, everyone knows that this is just a temporary peace, and the major nobles are now strengthening their military strength.
20,000 gold coins are enough to arm about 20 heavy armored cavalry, or 100 heavy armored infantry.
Although the angel's glory is good, it is up to be discussed whether it is worth so much.
Levin seemed not to see Pier's enthusiasm fade away, and immediately launched a strong sales offensive, showing a unique smile of a profiteer:
"This is our eagle leader Specialties, except for the Nord Province, cannot be found at all! "
"Of course, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. This thing is in Nord, and the public price is 9999 gold coins, but after all, I've also walked on the way. One year also costs a lot! ”
"In this way, you can take the 9999 gold coins and just make friends, how about it?"
Although Pier still feels it is a bit worthless, but on the one hand, Angel Zhiyao is indeed a good thing, and on the other hand, Lei Wenduo I am so earnest, I can't help but give face!
9999 gold coins, if you buy them, you can sell them if you lose a little!
"Okay, then thank you Lord Lei Wen."
"This is too much to be away from others." Lei Wen raised his teacup: "Since you bought the Angels Yao, we are friends."
"Cheers for our friendship!"
Piler had no choice but to raise his glass to answer.
After taking a sip of tea, I felt something was wrong - isn't this my carriage? Why does it seem like I'm here to visit?
Fortunately, this doubt did not last long.
The carriage soon arrived at its destination, and stopped at the entrance of a hotel called "Emerald Hall" on King's Avenue.
Pier smiled and said, "Although you will not be too far away when you arrive in the royal capital, you don't have to worry too much. There is still some time."
"It must be very hard along the way, tonight Let’s have a good rest. I’ll come over tomorrow and take you to appreciate the style of the royal capital!”
Lei Wen smiled and thanked, and then entered it with the help of the hotel staff.
This is a hotel with a royal sign. Only earls from all over the world and envoys from other countries are qualified to settle in it.
Inside the towering walls are independent medium-sized buildings.
Every building is not inferior to any viscount's castle in terms of scale; its luxury is hard to match even the count.
At least, there is no such luxurious decoration in Earl Tyrone's castle.
Simply put, the reliefs on the walls, the decorations on the doors and windows, and the skirting lines on the corners of the floor are all decorated in gold.
Even in every room, there is a soundproof magic array that can be activated by itself.
As soon as Lei Wen was about to rest, an invitation was delivered to him.
The author of the signature is "Domi Shiva Farrell", and Raven is invited to go to his mansion five days later to participate in a cocktail party.
The middle name is Shiva, which means that this is an earl, but Raven has never heard of his name.
When Pier comes tomorrow, let's ask again.
Just about to rest, the knock on the door sounded. After getting Lei Wen's approval, Weisdong's head leaned in: "Brother, Hyena and I are going to go out for a walk, do you want to come together too ? "Lei Wen shook his head: "I'm a little tired, you guys go by yourself."
Weiston asked again, "Then, do you need to bring something?"
Leiwen said, "No need, you should pay attention to it yourself. The king is not as good as Nord, and he has a bit of a sense of decisiveness in his words and actions. "
"Okay!" Weiston closed the door with a smile.
Walk outside and waited for the hyena beside her to come up and said, "What do you say, sir?"
"When did you treat us badly?" Weiston smiled and turned to greet him: "Thor, Julia, let's go!"
A group of four people left the Emerald Hall like this.
The sky gradually dimmed, and on the spacious and tidy streets, magic street lights began to shine.
There are men and women walking on the street. The men are wearing slim-fitting and shaping stockings and tights, while the women are wearing various long skirts that Viston has never seen before, and they are ignoring the severe cold of winter. Everything that shouldn't have been leaked.
It's even more open than female workers in the Nord Provincial Bathroom!
Weston is fine, I have eaten it and seen it; hyenas are always with Lei Wen, and all kinds of high-end beauties are not uncommon.
Only Thor, it was like a weasel entering a chicken coop, and his eyes could grow on those women, attracting all kinds of fingers.
The most new ⊥小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小�
"Don't be embarrassed!" He patted Thor on the shoulder, and Weiston glanced at him dissatisfiedly: "If this happens, you can go back first!"
Thor Immediately retorted.
He didn't want to come out with Weiston.
But after looking at Julia who was lowering her head, she still held back and whispered: "...I understand!"
There is a lot of trouble all the way, and when you arrive at the capital, you must be well. Relax.
Since you want to relax, of course you have to drink some wine.
So Weiston has already inquired about the target, a tavern called "Dragon's Throat".
The sign is a lifelike black dragon head. Whenever a guest passes by, he will turn his neck and occasionally a mouthful of false light and shadow flames will spew out of his mouth.
"This..." Thor was a little scared when he saw it: "Or, let's change one?"
The signs all require magic. How much consumption is here?
Weston was actually a little upset, but she didn't want to lose face. She coughed and said, "Brother, you are about to become an earl. You are the most thoughtful countryman like you. You can collect it for me, but I won’t be able to use it to spend money anyway! ”
As he said that, he walked in the first place to push the door.
The royal capital is crowded with people, and there are always many outsiders. Therefore, although Weisdong and others look like outsiders in their clothes, they have not encountered any scenes of looking down on people.
The maid brought the four people into the seat and asked, "What do you want to order?"
As he said, the maid couldn't help but turn her eyes on Julia.
Although they all came as Lei Wen's guard, it was always inconvenient for the king's capital to wear armor, so they were all dressed in casual clothes.
Julia's majestic figure cannot even cover up her specially customized plate armor, let alone ordinary clothes, so even if she is wrapped in extremely rigorously, it is still very eye-catching.
Almost all flowed out of Julia's arms wrapped around her.
So the maid was wondering if Julia had something on her body, or had the blood of a barbarian or a tauren. "We are also here in the capital for the first time. Do you have any recommendations here?" Weisdong's voice woke the maid up.
"Oh, yes!" The maid quickly took out the wine list and put on a professional and enthusiastic smile: "We are the best tavern in the entire capital. What kind of wine do you want us There are all here.”
"Of course, if you want to try it out, in terms of wine, we recommend 'Tears of Angels', which only costs 28.88 gold coins in one bottle."
"This is the most famous good wine in our empire in recent years. , the hometown of Baron Leiwen, a hero and famous general from the empire, is extremely rare even in the entire capital! ”
The few people looked at each other and smiled almost at the same time.
Although the tears of angels are expensive in Nord, they are not so expensive!
Weston even felt a pity that because the journey was too long and the wine could not withstand the wind and sun, they did not bring the angel's tears to this trip.
If I had known this, wouldn’t I have made a profit if I had installed it with more than a dozen big cars?
"Forget the Angel Tears." Weisdong said, "Let us have a few royal city specialties."
"What are your recommendations for eating?"
The waitress was not surprised that she did not sell the angel tears. Although this wine is beautiful, it is indeed too expensive.
"In terms of wine, I will give you the 'Tyrant Blood'. Although it is not as gentle as the tears of angels, it has a unique flavor as a strong wine."
"As for food, I especially recommend the 'Gold Coin Hamburger'!"
"The creativity of this food also comes from the 'Wallace Hotel' in the Eagle-Ling, but it has been specially improved by the royal capital. , very suitable for 'Tyrant's Blood', do you want to try it? ! "
Weston nodded, took the wine list himself, let everyone see it, and ordered other snacks.
Including the hyena, everyone was a little restrained - it was really too expensive!
Although the blood of the tyrant is not as good as the tears of the angel, it costs 16.79 gold coins per bottle, and the price of the gold coin burger is as high as 98 gold coins.
If this meal continues, it will cost a local knight's net income of 1 or 2 years!
It’s not easy to live in the capital without some wealth!
But there is no money in the world, and the consumption is expensive, so there is nothing to say about the service.
Only a few bangs!
Colorful streamers flew in the sky, and musicians in the tavern played cheerful tunes.
The food delivery team of 5 people walked out of the kitchen.
The two at the front were holding a huge gilded tray, and two male waiters on both sides were holding huge bread knives and forks. The waitress walked in front, holding a bottle of crimson hero blood in her hands.
After accompaniment, I walked to the table.
Weston swallowed, "Did you smell it?"
Hyna sniffed and asked in confusion: "What?"
Weisdong said, "The smell of gold coins!"
The plate was brought to the table, the lid was uncovered, and a strong meaty aroma flowed.
The gold coin burger is really worthy of its name!
A layer of bread on it is fried and roasted into a golden color, and the portrait of Cairns XVI is also printed.
The meat in the middle was full of juice, and fine gold powder flowed in the brown sauce, which was like crushing gold and putting it in, flowing down the edge.
It doesn't look like food, but it looks like a golden sculpture!
The two male waiters next to them cut the huge burger with bread knives, and the other one divided it and put it into everyone's plate.
The waitress smiled and poured wine for the four people, and said with a smile: "Everyone, please use it!"
Weston was about to taste it, but found that these people had not left. .
He also stayed in entertainment venues all year round. He knew what this meant, so he took out a few gold coins and threw them to the waitress.
The waitress has not left yet.
Weston had to use the same trick again, and gave a total of 18 gold coins, and then he left.
When I turned around, Thor was already consuming his head.
Weston, who originally wanted to say something, had to sigh and start dealing with the burger on the plate.
I have to say that the taste is really good - anyway, anyone who spends more than 100 gold coins just to eat a hamburger will taste good.
"What a pity." The hyena suddenly said, "Baron is not here."
"The most important thing is to have someone to pay!" Weiston joked and sighed again: "I'm not without it either." Call me brother, but you also know when he has come out to have fun from the time of the funeral to now? "
This sentence made the originally relaxed atmosphere a little depressed.
As Weiston said, it has been nearly a year and a half since Nancy's death, to the preparation and holding of the funeral, and then to the departure.
Apart from necessary social interaction, Lei Wen basically won’t go to any casual occasions. Even if he drinks, he will lock himself in a tent.
"Hey! That girl!" With a drunken voice, three drunken men walked up, one of them with a big beard said:
"Come here and have a drink with us brothers! ”
As he spoke, the unrestrained gaze kept pulling against Julia’s chest.
Julia covered her chest.
Weston straightened up and said, "I want to drink, I can invite you..."
"What are you? You deserve to invite us to drink?!" The leader's big bearded man pressed his finger on the emblem on his chest: "Did you see it?? Do you know who we are now?"
"No matter where you came from or why, even if you came today!"
"I think you guys are also a man who has seen the world. Now let's take this girl. Let us go out and serve us brothers comfortably. No matter what the problem is, it is not a problem!"
As he said, he stretched out his hand with greasy grime in his nails and grabbed Julie Ya's chest.
"Don't!" Weiston said loudly.
But it was still late.
Julia flexibly lowered her body, avoided the man's savage hands, then rushed forward with force with her right leg, and an elbow hit it landed on the upper right side of the man's belly. Where is the liver!
"Ao——"
The bearded man's face suddenly twisted, and he opened his mouth and began to vomit wildly.
"How dare you hit someone!" The other two big men looked angry and drew out the long swords from their waists. The fighting spirit of one red and one yellow quickly burned on the blade.
Julia was in power and was cut off a wound while fighting her shoulder. She immediately bullied her into the arms of the man on her right, and punched her fingers into the man's throat.
The man rolled his eyes and fell forward into his companion's vomit.
At the same time, there was a thud.
The big man on the right was also knocked into the temple by Weisdon, and he fainted and fell to the ground.
The screams rang out in the tavern, and someone was shouting: "Guard, guard!" "Come on!! Kill people!!!"
br>Thor and Hyena were both a little embarrassed. They had just gotten up, but they didn't expect that the battle had been finished!
Yes, how could this group of guys who are pampered in the capital compare to Weiston and Julia who have fought with real swords and guns?
"What are you doing when you stand?" Weiston, who had experienced fighting in the tavern, grabbed the plate in front of him and smashed a guard who wanted to come up to maintain order: "Run!" Ya, Hyena and Thor didn't know that Weiston had done his homework, but he knew clearly what the heralds on the three people represented.
The shield-shaped heraldry with an amber base is entrenched in a bronze rattlesnake, and a purple crystal is also held in the snake's mouth.
That was the heraldic emblem of the Quiselan family, one of the eight great dukes of the Empire!
When will you not run away at this time?
Fortunately, the few of them were extraordinary, but they didn't wear armor when they came out, so they ran as fast as they flew. They didn't take long to return to the Emerald Hall.
"No one can tell this tonight." Weiston looked at the three of them and said seriously: "Just pretend that it hasn't happened, do you understand?"
"I will explain it to my brother myself."
The three of them nodded one after another.
Weston also breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Julia. Although the wound on her shoulder was not big, it was still bleeding: "I'll help you with the wound?"
"No need, I can do it myself." Julia shook her head and refused: "I am not seriously injured."
Knowing Julia's temper, Weiston stopped forcing her and returned to herself After washing the room, I went to bed.
No words all night.
After all, it was a long journey. Weiston slept until noon the next day. Just when he thought he was getting up late, he came to the hall and saw Lei Wen sitting there, just applying a layer of jam on the bread. .
"Brother, we encountered some small trouble yesterday..." Weiston sat opposite Raven and told about what happened last night one by one.
Laiwen heard that, he didn't say anything special, but said, "I understand."
Although the Quiselland family is powerful, it must be the one who can make trouble in the tavern. It won't be the core of the family, it's easy to deal with.
It just needs a suitable opportunity and occasion to explain things clearly so as to avoid the people below making trouble.
"Levin, I knew you would sleep until now!" The sound of kicking and stomping footsteps sounded, and Pier appeared in the hall: "Eat and drink enough, and take you to a place later, let me give you a chance. You can see it carefully! ”
