Chapter 31: The Silent Swordsman (1)

In the Republic of Venice, and even in other countries, many civilians who are unwilling to rest on their laurels will choose to come to the guild in search of a way to make a living.

Behind the guild is the support of the state, including nobles, wealthy merchants, etc., who will release through the guild what they can't accomplish or are unwilling to do in person, and then these people who are willing to take risks will complete it.

The guild acts as an intermediary, coordinating the needs of both parties and charging some fees from the client as a source of profit.

At this time, it was morning, and the bustling crowd gathered in the guild, looking at the commissions posted on the wall, constantly wandering and considering.

Nangong Yu and Marco were in the guild hall at this time, looking at the crowd coming and going, they suddenly lost their direction and didn't know where to ask.

Nangong Yu looked at Marco, and Marco said that he had never been to this place before.

Nangong Yu thought about it and felt that since this is a place to issue commissions, there should be a place for reception, where is the reception hall?

Infected by the atmosphere in the hall, Nangong Yu began to look for a place to receive him.

There are a lot of people in the guild hall, and many people who look like ordinary or sailors come and go, and there is nowhere to look for them. Just when Nangong Yu didn't know how to look for the reception and was about to find someone to ask, he saw a person, and this person caught his attention. The man was dressed plainly, with a smile on his face, and kept saying something to the crowd.

Nangong Yu walked over quickly, and when he got closer, this person immediately focused his attention on Nangong Yu.

"Hey, boy, are you here looking for a job? I can help you, you can call me Anthony. Before Nangong Yu could speak, this person took the lead in speaking.

Nangong Yu nodded and said, "Yes, it's my first time coming to the guild. ”

"Oh, that's easy, in this way, just the two of you, right?" Anthony looked at Nangong Yu and Marco behind him, "I'll take you to join a fleet first." ”

After speaking, he pulled Nangong Yu and walked out, Nangong Yu used a little force, Anthony suddenly felt that Nangong Yu weighed a thousand pounds, and he didn't pull him all of a sudden, he looked back at Nangong Yu suspiciously.

Looking at Anthony's appearance, Nangong Yu gently patted him away and held his hand, and said, "I don't want to join someone else's fleet for the time being, I just want to ask where the reception hall is." ”

Anthony suddenly snorted and said, "Oh, I see, do you have your own ship?"

Nangong Yu shook his head and said, "No." ”

Anthony saw Nangong Yu shaking his head, revealing an expression that I already knew, and said, "So I'm taking you to join someone else's fleet." ”

Nangong Yu said: "Can't you accept the commission without a ship?"

Anthony showed a strange expression and said, "It seems that you really don't know, but fortunately, you met me." ”

Nangong Yu said, "What the hell is going on?"

Anthony was very satisfied with Nangong Yu's reaction, and said: "It's very simple, you don't have a ship, what do you use to complete the commission? Fly over? Or run over?" So I'll take you to join someone else's fleet, if someone else needs it, you can follow someone else's fleet to complete the commission together, and then distribute the commission fee according to the fleet's own distribution method." ”

After Anthony finished speaking, he pulled Nangong Yu out again, and this time Nangong Yu let him pull him and came to the outside of the guild.

Anthony said as he walked, "There are exactly a few fleets on the dock right now, I'll see if there is a need for your fleet, and the one behind you." What will you all do?"

Marco looked at Nangong Yu and saw that he didn't answer, so he said, "I'm a boatman, and he's very good at fighting." ”

"Can you fight?!" Anthony looked at Nangong Yu, who was still a child, "How good can you fight?"

Nangong Yu smiled and said, "Lead the way." ”

Anthony stopped unexpectedly and said, "Oh, by the way, there's another thing, I can help you introduce commissions, introduce fleets, of course, it's not free, that's what I do." ”

Nangong Yu looked at Anthony and said, "How much?"

Anthony stretched out five fingers and said, "It's not expensive, introduce the commission or the fleet, five silver coins each time." Whether it can be done or not is up to you. ”

Marco was taken aback, five silver coins were worth several days' wages, and he pursed his lips and said, "It's not expensive, it's more than my wages for several days." ”

Anthony rubbed his hands and said with a dry smile: "Hehe, this is really not expensive, after you join the fleet, almost all the expenses are the responsibility of the captain, you don't need to spend money at all, and there is a remuneration for completing the commission, how good is it?"

Nangong Yu asked rhetorically: "Such a good thing, why don't you go?"

Anthony said righteously: "There is no person like me, in such a period, whoever leads you to the beginning, you must know that the existence of every profession is valuable, and it just so happens that I am doing this kind of work and leading you to the road to wealth." ”

Anthony is obviously at home in the profession of "leader", and Nangong Yu doesn't talk nonsense with him, no matter where such a person is, he simply took out five silver coins and threw them to Anthony.

Anthony smiled when he saw the silver coin, he took it, looked it left and right, and quickly put it in his bag. He set his eyes directly on Nangong Yu, and he could see that these two people were headed by Nangong Yu.

Anthony said, "Boy, no, boss, there are three fleets in the harbor right now, so I'll show you there." ”

Money is almost omnipotent in any world, Anthony accepted Nangong Yu's silver coin, became much more enthusiastic, and his tone was much more polite, he put on a friendly smile and walked quickly in front of the two.

The harbor was not very far from the guild, and after passing through several waterways, the three of them reached the vicinity of the docks.

Venice, as the largest port city on the Adriatic Sea, although it is only early in the morning, the dock is already full of all kinds of ships, and many sailor-like people are busy preparing to go to sea.

Arriving at the docks, Anthony pointed to a place to the east and said, "There is a merchant fleet, and their captain needs to carry a shipment to Ragusa, and I will take you there." ”

Looking in the direction of Anthony's finger, Nangong Yu saw a small merchant ship docked on the dock, with a lot of wooden boxes piled up next to it, it seemed that these were the goods that the fleet needed to transport.

Coming to the side of the boat, Anthony shouted to a fat man on the shore: "Hey, Mr. Captain, I brought two people here, do you still need manpower here?"

When he saw Nangong Yu and the others who were following him, he looked at Nangong Yu and Marco, he shook his head and said, "It's them, is there no one in Venice, what I need is a sailor who can carry goods, they are too small, and they probably don't have much strength." ”

Rejected by the captain, Anthony did not leave immediately, but said: "Don't look at their small size, they have a lot of strength, and there is no problem in carrying these goods." Then he turned his head to Nangong Yu and said, "Boss, what do you think of this job?"
