Chapter 23: The Road 3
Only those two people did not show ill will towards him, and he would not trouble himself.
With Ander's greeting, the caravan continued on the road, and today it will be another day's journey, and it will rest for the night, and it will be able to reach Siwa City the morning after tomorrow.
The caravan traveled all the way from Deciduous Town, and Horren didn't see a few villages, most of them were no-man's land.
"The road we are walking is relatively safe, and it is also very close, and we will turn to the official road at noon today, when there will be more people. ”
Holren, who was not sitting in the carriage today, came out to move his hands and feet, riding the extra horses carried by the guards and chatting with Ona.
In his previous life, he didn't know how to ride a horse, but thanks to his wealthy life in Shuiyuan Star before, he also had the opportunity to participate in some upper-class activities, and there was also a sport like horseback riding, so that he would not be embarrassed at this time.
All the way to the mountains and wilderness, this is summer, the vegetation is flourishing, this world has just passed the summer solstice some time ago, to celebrate the arrival of summer, this is also a very grand festival in the Principality of Moro, the excitement is only in the Winter Veil Festival.
Secretly regretting that he didn't catch up with the excitement, "Why don't you join the Adventurers' Guild?" ”
"Even if you can't be a knight, there are other options. ”
Holren asked tentatively.
Oni's face turned gloomy when he heard this, "I just want to be a knight, and I have spent the first half of my life working towards this goal. ”
"And even if you want to take another path, you mean some other transcendent professional, it's not very likely. ”
"With my strength, I can only reach the lowest threshold of the Adventurer's Guild. Ona smiled wryly.
"I'm not young anymore, but my strength is stagnant, because my body's reaction can't keep up with when I was younger, and I'm already very satisfied to be able to maintain this stage. ”
Huo Lun understands that his strength is indeed good among ordinary people, but when he comes into contact with extraordinary events, there is no way at all, it is not a force that his strength can fight against.
After the caravan turned around, it really met more people, and I heard that this official road was built by a large merchant, and walking on the smooth stone road, the carriage seemed to be bumpy.
There are those who drag their families to Siwa City to make a living, and there are also horse-drawn carriages with luxurious appearances driving by, and when they see high-spirited grooms, often those civilians will get out of the way.
When encountering a convoy like the Ferrari caravan, the groom would put away his face and rush on the other side without interfering.
The people who can own a carriage and go a long way are not poor poor people who can't open the pot, otherwise they can't afford to buy a carriage, and a team like the caravan is generally a little bit of background, and when they meet the team of the big chamber of commerce, some small noble servants don't want to offend people.
Of course, the Ferrari caravan was naturally not a big chamber of commerce, and the luxurious carriage was not an aristocracy. But it's enough to see that there is a clear hierarchy here.
There were a lot of people on the official road, and for a while it was the crushing of cars and the sound of horses stamping.
Built close to people, the danger is much lower, but the distance is often longer.
So, after some time, the caravan turned to the forest path again, and Horen, who was also a little tired from riding, returned to the carriage to rest.
In the evening, the meal I ate was different from yesterday's, not as rich as yesterday's, and I ate brown bread and thick soup with meat.
The ingredients here make Huo Lun really can't stop, in the tumbling soup, from time to time you can see the boiled wild boar pieces and large bones coming out of the water, and then sprinkle a handful of verdant greens on it, and then be submerged in the soup, pick up a spoon and scoop up a bowl of thick soup, the taste buds are completely opened, the swallowing action does not stop, until a bowl of soup bottoms out, then exhale comfortably, it is really enjoyable.
The ingredients in this world are particularly delicious, especially the meat, and if cooked carefully, it is definitely an ultimate enjoyment.
Although he doesn't care about material conditions, if he has the conditions to live a better life, of course he will not wronged himself.
After eating, everyone dispersed, and Huo Lun spent the night in cultivation.
The next day, as soon as it was dawn, the caravan men were packing up their tents and cleaning up the leftovers of the previous night, and the fire had long since been extinguished.
Fatigue was evident on the faces of some of the guards, some were yawning, the vigil was very hard in the second half of last night, and the good news was that they would be able to reach Siwa City this morning.
It's not much away from Siwa City, and after entering the city, you can take a good rest at the caravan station in Ferrari.
The caravan would hand over the wagons to the head of the Ferrari family in Siwa City, and Ender was not responsible for selling the goods.
His task is to select the next shipment from Siwa City, and return to Fallen Leaf Town after a two-stop stop for the needs of Fallen Leaf Town and the surrounding villages.
This job sounds very frustrating, and Ander said that after a while, he may be transferred to Siwa City, and he will not have to go back and forth again, and he will hand over the work in Fallen Leaf Town to the next successor.
Siwa City.
The city, which has not experienced war, still maintains its prosperity hundreds of years ago, and was founded by a certain generation of ancestors of the Andrew family hundreds of years ago.
The Andrew family's contribution to the Duchy of Moro allowed Andrew's ancestors to be given the title of viscount by the then Grand Duke of Moro, and Siwa City was their fief.
This family has been running Xiwa City for generations, and there have been no ruined children, so that Xiwa City is prosperous today.
There was a large queue of people at the gates of the city ready to enter the city, and Ferrari's caravan from Fallen Leaf was also in the ranks.
Holren opened the door of the carriage, lifted the curtain of the carriage, and stretched his head to look at the team behind him. The city gate is very large, there are a total of three columns of people lined up, in fact, the speed of entering the city to check is already very fast, but there are many people today, and the official chamber of commerce in Siwa City, that is, the chamber of commerce run by Andrew's family, has returned to Siwa City.
The Andrew's Chamber of Commerce brought countless goods that were not available in Siwa City, and many small caravans and small merchants rushed to the scene.
Soon it was the turn of the Ferrari caravan, and everyone paid the entrance fee according to the capitation, five copperples for adults and two copperpools for children.
If you have an identity badge similar to the Adventurer's Guild or Mercenary Guild, you don't have to pay an entrance fee, which is a proof of identity, and even the Freedmen need to pay this fee.
This entrance fee was paid by Ender, and the previous cost of a silver pulp had already included these expenses.
After entering the city, he said goodbye to Ander and the others, and the other two transcendents who were also in the same carriage got off the train directly and disappeared.
