"Thanks, no need. Eslena smiled and declined, "We want to ask if there are any people here who sell or rent the compound." ”

"Is there a place for fifty-seven?" Fawkes quickly glanced at the people behind Esrena, and came up with an accurate number, "By the way, there are six stables for pack horses." No problem, I'm Arabe's shrewdest and best remembered guide, and I know a lot about such a courtyard, and I guarantee that it is cheap and clean. ”

"Are you renting for how long?" The young man named Fox is actually the most common broker in Arabbe City, looking for caravans, providing information and services, or shopping guides. Of course, there is some commission to pay, and the merchant will also offer a portion of the commission.

However, the merchants who frequented Arabe generally did not bother with such street brokers. Arabe City has a special department, the commercial office, which is equivalent to an intermediary office, which provides specialized consulting services, comprehensive information, and reasonable fees.

Therefore, the favorite merchant of this kind of small broker is a rookie who has never been to Arabe City.

"It's better to buy it. ”

Because of Esrena's excellent archery skills, the Friendship Pirates have accumulated a lot of wealth over the years, in addition to gold coins, there are also jewels, which can be regarded as rich.

Buying enough for more than 50 people to live in was a big deal, and it meant that Fox could earn more of his cut. He was pleasantly surprised, but he always maintained a humble smile on his face: "It seems that you must have liked the city as soon as you entered the city, and you can't wait to settle down." No problem, I can guarantee that I will find you the best location, negotiate the lowest price, and provide the best service. Guys, please come to me. ”

No one wants to miss the opportunity to make a fortune. Fawkes made a gesture of please, and Eslena nodded, leading the group to follow.

Iluri rolled her eyes, "I don't look like a good person. Rena, you're too easy to trust people. What if I get caught?"

"Iluri. Eslena shook her head and said in a very low voice, "You think I don't know? But don't forget who we are, and having to provide a lot of necessary information to go there, I don't want to risk it for the sake of my family. ”

Eluli pursed her lips, as if for the first time she couldn't find a reasonable reason to raise the bar, so she could only knock on little Joel's skull: "Give me a quick walk." ”

Fox is very efficient, but the location is not flattering, the nearest large bazaar is at least three streets crossed, the buildings are scattered, and the pedestrians on the streets are sparse, far less than the bustling street that first entered the city.

The yard was large enough, like a small manor, with stables, kitchens and warehouses, and it was no problem to accommodate seventy or eighty people. However, it may be that it has been idle for too long, the owner is too lazy to clean, there is dust everywhere, and the yard is overgrown with weeds.

But what Fox said is that the sky is falling, what a quiet, the warehouse is large, the price is cheap, and there will soon be a large commercial street to be built here, which will soon prosper, and even increase in price.

Eslena only bargained symbolically, lowered the price a lot, and followed Fawkes to the city's contract office, signed a house purchase contract with the master's family, and paid the gold coins.

The whole process was amazingly refreshing, and at the end Fawkes's back molars were all smiling. This is the most profitable business he has made this year, and there is no one, after all, the reason why this remote and old manor cannot be sold is that the main family asks for a high price.

It's not that Esrena is stupid, it's that she doesn't want to waste time on this kind of thing and increase the risk of exposure, knowing that there are many innocent children in the caravan. If it's a sheriff's investigation – that's bad.

The sooner you settle down, the lower the risk of exposure.

The contract is completed, and the ownership of the estate falls into the hands. Without much delay, Eslena led everyone to move in and began a thorough and comprehensive cleaning.

When everything was settled, the gates of the manor were closed. Esrena's heart was completely relaxed, and she immediately began to discuss her next plans with her sisters.

"Sisters, it looks like a remote place, but in fact, the price is still far lower than that in the downtown area. The house here is a little shabby, but as long as we are together, it can become a warm home. ”

As the leader, Esrena is indeed dutiful and good at calming everyone's emotions.

"No matter how much gold we have, we seem to be rich now. Eslena stood in the middle of the empty room and pointed around, "But look, we're all around us. Everything needs gold to be placed. There was also the problem of food, fifty-seven people, and six pack horses, which would consume gold coins every day. ”

"So, what do you think? Just say it, we need to find a business to do in order to support everyone. ”

"I have!" Iruli boldly raised her hand, "I noticed on the street, there are a lot of rich merchants here. We cover it, take a knife, tie it one by two, and we can earn a lot of ransom. ”

Sure enough, there was silence in the room, and everyone was black.

Esrena's cheeks twitched slightly, "Iluri, we're not pirates or merchants now. ”

"Did you tell everyone to say it? Yiluli habitually held the grass root in her mouth, and looked like a hanger: "Don't worry, we don't have to talk about credit." When the ransom is in hand, tear up the ticket immediately, so that there is no risk of exposure. ”

"Stop, stop. You better stop talking. Eslena was going crazy and waved her hands repeatedly: "Others, do you have any ideas? ”

"Why!" Yiluli seemed to be unconvinced because of the unfair treatment she had encountered, "Isn't this proposal of mine unreasonable enough?"

"Iluri. Eslena accentuated, "I think it's important for you to get rid of that." Do you know how powerful the guards of Arabey are?"

"How powerful?"

"Magician, do you know magicians?" Eslena said with a gloomy face: "The spire in the center of the city, do you see? That's the magic tower! The high-level magician from the Kurminsk Imperial Mage Association is the hole card that can ensure that all creatures of all races can trade freely here." ”

"Ahh

"Some of them, mages who specialize in the study of magic, are tired of war. That's why they came to Arabe and founded an association of mages called 'Free Thinking'. ”

Before she knew it, Eslena had been successfully led astray by Iruri: "Their original intention in allowing the aliens to trade here was to find all kinds of strange magical items or magic books from all over the world. The control of the city is indeed in the hands of the mortal nobles, but it is only in charge of the city, so that those magicians who live in seclusion can focus more on the study of magic. ”

"But!" Esrena glared at Iruli, "Anyone who wants to commit a traitor here, if the sin is too great, if it involves human life, and when it comes to the reputation of Arabe, it is against the interests of the magicians. They don't mind using mystical magic to find the killer. ”

"Do you know what I mean? The magicians among them are more than capable of getting the necessary information through the crystal ball. And if you resist - no matter how strong you are, they will have enough power to destroy you. ”

"Black magic, white magic, necromancy, cursed magic, and more. The study of magic here is as free as this city. There are many terrible powers, and when you see them, you can understand how weak you are. ”

"So, if you want to live here in peace, it's best to let go of those unrealistic ideas. We have to be businessmen, law-abiding businessmen, to protect our families. ”
