Chapter 220: Abraham's Manor [Second Update]
"It's weird that I don't wake up, but I keep breathing steadily. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" The doctor's eyes showed confusion, and he followed his gaze towards the ward.
"Please help me take care of him, it's a gratuity. ”
After that, Zheng Fei took out a bag of more than 100 silver coins, handed them to the doctor, and then went out.
He knew he couldn't help him here, and it would be a waste of time to stay.
When he arrived at the door and was about to board the carriage, Santiago sniffed his nose vigorously, swallowed his saliva, looked at the tavern, and said, "What a good wine, shall we go buy some?"
"Another day, we have more important things to do. ”
Zheng Fei's expression had some meaning of selling guanzi, and he glanced at the tavern, not noticing a few small Chinese characters on the wine flag, nor did he see the yellow-skinned shrewd boss.
Now, he was going to the place called Abraham's Manor to find out what was going on.
He had to find a way to get close to the prince and try to come up with a token that would rule the descendants of Sparta, which was more important than selling the shipment he had brought back from America.
In this case, of course, stepping on the point and deployment before the birthday party are indispensable, and if the "friendly consultation" fails, the only way to do so is violence.
As for that batch of goods, if you grab the tokens, you can't stay in Venice, you can go around a long way to the extra-large port [Tripoli] on the east side of the Mediterranean Sea and sell them.
Tripoli, in its contemporaries, was one of the few mega-ports in the world, and its prosperity was not much inferior to that of Hangzhou, Quanzhou, and Fuzhou in the Ming Dynasty.
......
Abraham's estate, the largest manor castle in Venice, is also the private property of Duke Abraham, this Romanian prince's birthday party was contracted by the duke, no one robbed him, because no one could rob him.
The duke lived in Rome all year round, participated in royal and ecclesiastical proceedings, and returned only each winter and summer, taking with him an elite escort.
The gate of the manor.
The fence is made of iron to distinguish it from the wooden fence of an ordinary manor.
At the top of the fence, there are many sharp wires twisted to prevent thieves or killers from sneaking in, and under the influence of Brad in recent years, almost all the nobles feel that they are likely to be killed quietly, and everyone is at risk.
The scenery around the manor is good, and it can't be seen in winter, but in another month or two, it will be surrounded by shady green trees, flowers all over the ground, and a pleasant spring breeze blows, which is comfortable~
The estate was built on the outskirts of the city, so there were many poor people living nearby, most of whom worked as farmers, and a few who made a living from fishing.
At this time, some children, the so-called children of poor families, lay on their stomachs outside the fence in groups, holding the fence with both hands, leaning on it and sniffing the fragrance wafting from the kitchen.
While sniffing, they kept talking.
"Tsk, what I made today is beef, and it's so fragrant~"
"Hmmm! I also smell roast goose, my favorite!"
"Hey, don't talk about it, I'm dying......" Listening to the gurgling sound of his stomach, a little guy swallowed a big mouthful of saliva, staring at the kitchen full of sin, as if comforting himself: "I don't like to eat roast goose, I just smell it, and I eat it...... It's more fragrant, take a bite of that crispy, two years ago, my father caught a big marlin and sold it, made a lot of money, and ate a roast goose. ”
Hearing their conversation, Santiago couldn't help but smile, remembering himself when he was a child, and standing outside the rich man's house so cute and poignant, smelling the tempting aroma, it was a pleasure.
After looking at it for a while, he silently turned his head to Zheng Fei and said, "Man, can you give me some silver coins?"
Zheng Fei knew him too well, smiled, took out the silver coin and gave it to him, looked at the group of dirty children, and didn't speak.
Santiago whistled happily, made a gesture of satisfaction, and walked over to the children.
Imagine, a big strong man with a height of nearly two meters, with explosive muscles, walking quickly with big strides, and a smile with unknown intentions on the corner of his mouth, will you choose to go away immediately, or run on a horse quickly?
Anyway, the children scattered in a hurry, treating the strong man as a family member who came to beat people.
"Run!"
The child king shouted, and the next movement is not an exaggeration to describe it as a head mouse.
Seeing this, Santiago was stunned for several seconds before he realized and shouted, "Hey, don't run!"
Don't run.
It's a pretty magic word that tends to only come up in one situation, and that's the pursuer versus the runaway.
Shout don't run, and people will stop? Hehe, are you stupid, he's stupid, or are you stupid?
No matter who is stupid, the children are not stupid, they run around separately as if they are dead, and they are clever enough to drill directly into the woods, and startle a rabbit that has come out to forage for food and arch straight into the hole.
Santiago froze in place, shouting in a hot head, "Roast goose for you!"
In an instant, the crows were silent, and this roar not only made the children stop and stop screaming, but also successfully attracted the attention of the head chef of the manor, who touched a bone chopping knife and stood at the door of the kitchen, with a face full of meat, staring at him.
Here's what the chef thought: The kitchen is my yard, do you want to steal food?
In the chef's opinion, there are some poor people in the neighborhood, and they definitely can't afford to eat roast goose, and the only place to get roast goose is their own kitchen.
Invariably, the children looked back at Santiago and his empty hand with questioning eyes.
After a short silence, someone finally said, "Liar!"
Santiago snorted, showing his white teeth as he showed his silver coins, and said, "Look, I don't roast the goose, but I have silver coins, you can buy them!"
After a moment's hesitation, a dozen children, including a few who had slipped into the woods, gathered at an eerie speed, their calves slung faster than the burrowing rabbit.
"Let's talk about the conditions. Standing in front of Santiago, the child king wiped his nose and said, with his hands in his pockets, very stylish.
Even though he was born in a poor family, his parents also taught him that there is no such thing as a free lunch.
Santiago smiled, crouched down and stuffed the silver coin into his hand, and said kindly to the children: "No conditions, take it to buy something to eat." ”
The child king pinched the silver coin and was reluctant to let go, but shook his head again, and said entangledly: "No, you say what you want us to do first!"
Santiago was about to reply when he heard a hysterical yell.
"Hey, arrest those children for me, otherwise if you get in the way of the duke's eyes, our jobs will be lost!"
Suddenly, the children did not stop at all, and fled faster than when they came back.
"I'll take the money first, just as we owe you, we will pay it back later!" the child called out without looking back. (To be continued.) )
