Volume 1 Once Upon a Time in the South Chapter 85 Luo Dai (I)

Even though the lights of the secret passage were on, Alwyn still felt a little eerie.

He thought to himself that this kind of business that can set up secret channels must be doing business that cannot be put on the table, and most of them may be black businessmen. In Salyushi, although he did not have to be involved in these shady transactions, he had heard of them to some extent.

The main reason is that the injury on his hand has not healed yet, and he doesn't want to start with others at this time, so he will find Langyun to accompany him. Now that Langyun is isolated outside, if something really happens in a while, he will inevitably have to take action.

However, it should not be too dangerous to think that Kwai will lead him in so generously. This little girl should have no reason to hurt herself, Alvin said to himself.

"Big brother, I didn't let Langyun follow because he was a local. I'm afraid that people will recognize him, which will cause unnecessary misunderstandings. Seeing Alwin's frowning expression, Aoi explained to him.

"Who the hell are you going to meet?" Alvin wondered, why did the locals cause misunderstandings?

"Big brother, have you heard of the organization Luo Dai?"

Alvin thought for a moment, "I haven't heard of it. ”

"The Rods are a vast underground organization that operates across the Empire. Let's put it this way, every big city on this continent has their point of contact. Aoi said.

"And what kind of business are they mainly doing?" Alvin looked at her pointedly.

Kwai knew that Alwin probably had a number in mind, "Generally, you can find them for things that can't be bought on the market, as long as they can buy them, you can pay for them." ”

"With such a large organization, there shouldn't be more than just 'these' deals, right?" he said with a smirk.

"Big brother's head is still alive. Aoi said with a smile, "Indeed, they still have a lot of assassination orders. There are always some nobles who are inconvenient to kill people by themselves, so they will pay for it to be done by 'Luo Dai'. ”

Alwyn pondered for a moment and couldn't help asking, "In other words, this organization has an intricate relationship with the nobles of various empires?"

"So to speak. Aoi leaned and said, "But not every nobleman has the opportunity to get their hands on this organization. ”

"They only pick people who are useful to them?"

"Actually, to be exact, they're going to find you on their own. Aoi said, bowing her head.

"Huh?" Alvin looked at her in surprise.

"Luo Dai will be there when you need it most, as long as you can afford it. "It's a phrase that people in their organization often say. ”

"Heh, that's not about money, what the hell are you doing?" Alwyn teased.

"Big brother, you're wrong, price doesn't necessarily mean money. Aoi said, looking at him.

"And what else can there be?"

"For example, sometimes the task is not as simple as killing someone, such as stealing information from high-ranking officials," Aoi said, "At this time, they will find those down-and-out noble ladies to come forward to complete the mission, after all, these high-ranking officials are also very cautious, and people with faces cannot blend into their circle." When the work is done, the women will be paid a fair amount. ”

"What do you mean this organization will leave difficult tasks to people outside the organization to do?" Alwyn was surprised.

"Yes, as long as they think you're suitable. Usually at this time you encounter a difficult problem, which only they can help you solve, and at the same time, you have to help them solve the problem. She said, "As I said, didn't they show up when the down-and-out aristocratic girls needed money the most?"

"Wow, and such an amazing skin/strip tissue. Alvin couldn't help but exclaim softly, and then asked her, "Then little sister, you... How did you get into them?"

"Big brother, what kind of eyes do you have? Aoi glared at Alwyn with shame and anger.

"No, I'm just asking. Alvin smiled helplessly.

"Hmph, you must be thinking crookedly. The little girl said angrily.

"Then you don't say it. Alvin grumbled. In fact, he knew in his heart that if that was the case, how could that little guy welcome her in with a flattering face.

"I did exchange things with them. Aoi stopped and whispered.

Alwyn didn't ask any more curiously. In fact, everyone has their own secrets, everyone has unspeakable secrets, and he knows that if he makes that curiosity too offensive, it is a degrading act, which he can't do.

"That... Aren't they afraid that the girls who have done things for them will spread the word about the organization?" the two of them continued to walk inside, and Alvin asked suddenly.

"Big brother, don't you think that the elite killers raised by 'Luo Dai' are vegetarians, right?"

"Understood. Alvin nodded.

After reaching the end of the passage, a dozen stone stairs appeared in front of him around the corner.

Alwyn looked back at the structure of the secret passage, and thought that he had opened up several shops.

Aoi led him up the stone staircase and knocked on the wooden door that stood in the way.

After a while, the small window on the wooden door opened, and after a pair of bulging eyes peeked out, the small window closed again.

Then I heard the sound of the bolt being pulled, and the door opened.

A rather short old man stood behind the door and greeted the two of them into the house with a smile. Seeing that he was dressed in a delicate dress, Alwin was quite curious about where this outfit was made. Because this old gentleman is not tall, to be exact, he is a little similar to a dwarf, but he is not a thin type, there is obviously a lot of fat around the waist and abdomen, and the buttons of the inner lining are very tight.

Alvin glanced at the mahogany stool next to the door, and realized that the old gentleman had climbed onto the stool and looked out the door.

He glanced at the furnishings of the room, which were lined with parchment-covered books on three sides, and a large desk on the other. There are two small windows on the roof, but now you can't even see the night sky, so this should not be the roof.

"Miss Aoi is here, sit down, sit down, and bring a guest?" the short-footed old gentleman glanced at Alwin and said with a smile, "Then there must be big business to discuss today?"

He warmly invited the two of them to sit down on the couch in the center of the room, then picked up a silver teapot with runic glow from the coffee table and poured two cups of black tea for Alvin and Aoi.

Alvin wasn't busy drinking his tea, he glanced down at the woolen carpet spread under the sofa, and when he looked at the fabric and the dΓ©cor, he knew that it was not an ordinary product. It can even be said that it has reached the level used by the court.

He thought to himself, this mysterious "Luo Dai" organization is really rich.

"Elder Luwen, this is Alwin, and he is my eldest brother. Aoi said with a smile.

"Elwin?" the old gentleman looked at Alwyn and thought about it carefully, and suddenly said, "Could Your Excellency be Alvin Ferry?"

"How do you know that?" said Alvin strangely. He thought to himself if he was not so famous that he could spread it to Dwaddan.

"Your Excellency, don't be surprised, our 'Luo Dai' organization has a record of young and talented people in several major empires. It just so happened that I turned over the record about you a while ago, so it's not surprising to remember you. Elder Luwen said with a smile.

"I?。。。 Can you match up with young talents?" said Alvin with a smirk.

"Your Excellency, don't be modest. We have a record of outstanding players on the table, and players like you who are in the top four must have a separate chapter to describe them in detail. ”

"It's just a matter of luck. Elwin had a smile on his face, but he was wondering in his heart that this Luo Dai organization had nothing to do to investigate what the young people of the major empires were doing, and they also had such a close relationship with the nobles and wealthy merchants of various countries. The intentions are so big that it's shocking.

Aoi was quite surprised when she listened, and she knew that her eldest brother was also a master in the top four of the Pillow Sword Club. She naturally also knew about the triennial event of the Yafei Empire.

"What kind of business are you here to talk about?" the elder sat down and began to cut to the chase. As soon as he sat down, the buttons on his belly were stretched so hard that they almost fell off his shirt. Because of his short stature, he had to sit straight, because when he leaned back, it was more like lying down, which was too rude.

"Elder, we just want to buy a batch of fine ore and sell it to the north. Aoi didn't go around the bend and said straight.

"What grade do you want, and what is the quantity?" Lu Wen and Kwai Tian have traded a few times, so they naturally know that this girl is very wealthy, so they have to confirm the quantity first.

"The ore of the level of the Fei Mine must cost thousands of ounces. She said, glancing at Alwin.

Alwyn told her with his eyes that she could just look at the conversation, after all, he didn't know anything about it.

"The price of 1 ounce of gilt ore is around 80 looney. Elder Luwen didn't show too much excitement, and after thinking for a while, he said, "If you want a thousand ounces, there should still be so many in the warehouse." ”

"Is there only a gilt jade ore now, is there any new goods?" Kwai Tian didn't rush to kill him.

"It seems that Miss Kwai Tilt also heard some rumors?" Elder Luwen asked with a squint.

Aoi shook her head in bewilderment, staring at Elder Luwen with wide eyes, waiting for him to continue.

"Then it seems that Miss Kwai doesn't know yet. Lu Wenxiao said, "The exclusive news of the organization, from Pegasus on the Mallord Plains, said that the original king has returned to the west, and the governor of Yuankang has also gone, and in the future, it will be Prince Resa who has the final say within the empire." ”

Elder Luwen glanced at Alwin after speaking. He found that this kid's face was as usual after listening to his words, and he thought to himself that these two should know the news, so what are they pretending to be with me. After all, the battle report he received mentioned that the Count of Philip had also died in battle.

"What exactly is the Elder going to say?" Aoi asked, confused, "As you know, I don't know much about the transfer of authority in these countries in the South. ”

"Rong Laosheng said slowly," Lu Wen said after taking a sip of black tea, "The original King Kelman has always forbidden the mining of fallen crystals in the Tralede Mountains, but this Prince Resa is different. He had always acquiesced in the excavation of the veins in the mountains by the Light Orthodox Church. ”

"What is that?" said Aoi.

"Yo, this thing is worth a lot more than the Fei Mine, so if you really want to calculate it, it is definitely worth a fortune. Lu Wen glanced at the two of them, "An ounce is worth a castle." ”
