Chapter 431: Arms Dealers
Passing through an empty square, bypassing a large statue, the carriage stopped in front of the palace gates, and Christine walked in with her head held high and with steady steps, no longer flustered, but very persistent in trying to prove something. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Lord Christine. ”
At the door, two columns of guards bowed to him in greeting.
He paused for a moment, glancing at the guards, their respectful expressions no different from before.
So he was more calm, a smile appeared on his face, and he waved his hand to Zheng Fei and the others: "Don't come in, I can do it alone." ”
Zheng Fei nodded, quietly watching his back disappear from sight.
"Just let him go?" muttered Santiago.
"Otherwise?" Zheng Fei replied, raised his feet and walked back, walking through the central square of Nuoda.
"But didn't he promise us ten ships?"
"You see, he doesn't have that power. ”
"Then we didn't get anything, we didn't even have an ocean-going ship, how could we go back to America..."
Santiago's words brought everyone into an atmosphere of sadness, and they hung their heads in silence, feeling that it was not worth the effort to build a shelf on the sea cliff before, and that they had been freezing in the howling sea breeze for so long that night.
A team of patrolmen passed by, Zheng Fei greeted them with a smile, and watched them slowly walk away.
"You think I'm going to stop here? He said to Santiago, a confident smile on his lips.
Santiago stared at him for a moment, and Nunu said, "Well, every time you have this expression, it means that you must have planned it." ”
Zheng Fei smiled lightly, took out the wine jug and shook it, it was already empty, so he appealed to everyone: "Go guys, find a place to drink, and visit Copenhagen by the way!"
At this time, Santiago looked around, scratched his head, and suddenly thought of something.
"Hey, where has Brad been in the last few days, hasn't he been following you all the time?"
"Oh~ I told him to do something. Zheng Fei responded indifferently and sold it.
"So what do we need to do now?"
And so on. ”
A group of people chatted and left the deserted palace square and stepped onto the strange and familiar streets, enjoying the unique Danish style.
The tavern in the evening is the busiest time of the day, because many porters and other coolies have left work, and they swarm into the tavern to order two glasses of wine, and sit down to drink while watching the beautiful women outside the window.
With the noisy arguments in his ears and his eyes swept over the faces of the rough men in the room, Zheng Fei stared out the window, holding the wine glass with a gap in his hand, slightly distracted.
He was thinking about things, speculating about what was going on on Brad's side and what the plans were going to go next.
Now the key to everything is with Brad, hopefully he can handle it.
On the street, several children are running, looking like the first few have snatched the candy from the one behind, with mocking and innocent smiles on their faces.
There are many girls in Denmark, but they are not within Zheng Fei's aesthetic scope, so they have no intention of appreciating it, and concentrate on thinking about their own things.
At this moment, a man in a fur hat walked into the tavern, trotted to the stove to roast his hands, and then smiled at the proprietor: "The same old thing, a pot of hot wine, two plates of rabbit meat, and two pieces of bread." ”
The boss shrugged his shoulders and told the young man to prepare, then leaned down in front of the counter and chatted with the regular customer.
"I said Solon, you are so rich now, why don't you go to a fancy restaurant to eat something good, such as steak foie gras or something, and always come to me for rabbit meat and bread. ”
"You still don't want to take care of your business?" said the man named Sauron, joking, taking off his warm fur hat and fanning the wind, and was a little hot from the stove, and sweat broke out on the top of his head.
"No, no, no, I mean a rich man like you can live the best life. The boss lowered his eyebrows, and his eyes fell on Sauron's gemstone ring, "This alone is worth at least two thousand silver coins, right?"
"If you have the vision, you spent two thousand and a half to get it at the auction house. ”
Sauron smiled proudly, then shrugged helplessly, and exhaled: "I don't want to do this either, but I can't help it, I've been getting busier and busier in the past six months, how can I have the time to go to high-end restaurants for recreation, I can only eat casually at your place." No, I'm going to board a ship to Belgium again tonight. ”
As he spoke, the rabbit meat and bread he asked for were brought to him, and he couldn't wait to break the bread and sandwich the rabbit meat in it, and take a big bite of it, and swallow it with the wine.
"Hmm~ I just like your roast rabbit meat, it's crispy and tender. He gave a thumbs up and praised.
The boss raised an eyebrow and asked the guy to bring him another plate.
"Sauron, as for how busy you are, you are not short of money. ”
"Who can be afraid of a lot of money, this time the money is very profitable, and when the expedition plan begins, I'm afraid I won't be able to make money. ”
Expedition plan, this sentence floated to Zheng Fei's ears, which naturally attracted Zheng Fei's attention.
Zheng Fei couldn't help but turn his head and carefully looked at the man lying in front of the counter a few meters away, what was his name... Oh, the boss seems to call him Sauron, and maybe he can get some valuable secrets out of his mouth.
Zheng Fei smiled slightly, pricked up his ears and listened to their conversation.
"Why?" the boss was confused.
"What do you say, when the army is all out, will gunpowder still be needed?"
Gunpowder... Zheng Fei frowned.
Could it be that this man named Sauron was an arms dealer? It makes no sense, with Denmark's great national power, how could it be necessary to buy gunpowder from an arms dealer?
With this confusion, Zheng Fei felt that it was necessary to talk to Sauron.
"Oh~, too. The boss had an epiphany, saw Sauron eating bread and rabbit meat, and said with a smile: "Why don't I prepare more for you to take with you on the road." ”
"Okay, thanks!"
Sauron hurriedly answered, finishing the wine in his glass, when he heard a voice behind him.
"Aha, you must be Mr. Sauron, long time no see!"
Zheng Fei held a glass of wine and greeted him in a fake way.
Sauron turned around, looked him from head to toe in confusion, and furrowed his brow, "Are you?"
"Don't you remember me, think about it carefully, I'm from the south of Europe..."Zheng Fei induced him, but he was embarrassed in his heart, in case this guy still said something he didn't know, it would be embarrassing.
As a businessman, he often has to meet all kinds of collaborators, and Sauron will not remember them all, but he will not easily say that he will forget them, which will offend his former partners.
"Oh, I remember... I've seen you in the South before, but forgive me for not remembering your name. Sauron smiled, acting quite realistically. (To be continued.) )
