Chapter 187: North African Spy 2

Galliani is one of these many people, and he has indeed been involved in the smuggling of quinine, but he is not a seller or a buyer, but he is just a middleman, and he is still a middleman who has changed his hands, and the soup is not strong, and he belongs to the role of others eating and drinking, and finally licking the soup pot. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info But even if he licks the soup pot, the profit at one time is much better than his hard work, but unfortunately this thing is very rare on the market, even if you want to take risks every day, you don't have a chance.

But now there is, not only that, but also big fat meat, a bag full of quinine, as many as twenty bottles. A veteran like Galliani only needs to smell the string of grass on the outside of the quinine bottle and look at the color of the whale wax to be sure that these are genuine. In the entire Mediterranean, neither the Christian countries, nor the Byzantines, nor the Arabs, nor the Egyptians, could make such pure cetacean wax, nor could they get this straw rope with a peculiar taste, and no one knew exactly where they came from.

With just a bottle of quinine, you can exchange a lot of gold, gems, and slaves in Byzantium, Greece, Bohemia, and the Crusader states. If you want, you can also change to a small piece of land with a house and become a freedman in the local area. As for the cost of doing business, it's easier, and in any port that is not strictly controlled by the Christian Church, there will be a large number of merchants willing to trade you for whatever goods they can find for this little bottle, mainly the not-so-white powder it contains.

"Do I have to make an oak chest for them? Wouldn't that be more noticeable? Pierre was very calm, his ideas were different and they were really realistic. Who would pay attention to a leather bag that is usually used to hold personal clothing, which almost every merchant holds.

"It's going to make you rich overnight, very rich!" Galliani was about to pick his fingernails into the palms of his hands, but he still couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and his eyes were bloodshot.

"Of course I knew, otherwise I wouldn't have traveled so far to sell it secretly. But I need your help, because of my family connections, I can't just sell them in front of me, so I need a reliable agent. I don't know if you have this interest, Mr. Galliani, but for every bottle sold, you will be paid five percent. Pierre's attention didn't seem to be on selling medicines, and he talked to Galliani as he looked around, as if looking for something.

"We shouldn't talk about this here, it's too dangerous! If anyone knows that you are carrying something so valuable, you are in danger. In Galliani's eyes, Pierre's performance was nothing unusual, and anyone with so many things more valuable than gold had to be extremely vigilant.

"It's not the first time you've been here, and you know if there's a safer place here...... It's the kind of place that no one wants to touch, it's okay if it's expensive, I'll pay for you. Pierre looked back, the port of Ceuta was full of North African flat-roofed houses, some tall and some short, but almost all of them were the same, the colors were similar, and the streets were not regular, and it was really difficult to find a small inn.

"Of course, there is an inn called Arsha, which is just down that street, next to the easternmost side of the pier. If we go there, you can rest assured that you can bring twice as much quinine with you. Pirates, thieves, robbers and the army here don't go to the Artsa Inn to harass the guests inside, do you know why? "Galliani did not lie on this question, he did come to Port Ceuta more than once, and he was familiar with the place, and after listening to Pierre's words, he immediately gave an answer.

"If that's the case, we'll go to this Arsha hostel. As for why it's so safe, we can talk as we go. Pierre let out a long sigh of relief, as if he had let go of something. But in Galliani's opinion, the content is different again, and he feels that he has helped the mallet solve a big problem, and Pierre should have more trust in himself. This trust has helped me a lot in my next plan, what 5 percent, I want 100 percent!

"What! Does it have anything to do with Fort Karl and Fort Baron, across the strait? Now that most of Europe sees them as enemies, and it is because of the war with them that my family has been saddled with huge debts, it is not appropriate that we should seek refuge here? "Pierre is Piobino, the sacrificial priest of the Helios Cult, and he came to Port Ceuta as Pierre this time with a special mission from Hong Tao.

What kind of person is Galliani, he can't deceive him, a fake nobleman, when he was suffering with his sick wife in Re\Na\Ya\Gang, he didn't come into contact with these scum who ate people and didn't spit out bones. The reason why he got together with this Galliani was mainly to cover his identity, and by the way, he wanted to find the Artha Hotel through him. Now that he knows the exact location of the Arsha Inn, he naturally doesn't want to be with this crook anymore. He wanted to find an excuse to get rid of Galliani, and then find an opportunity to enter the Arsha Hotel alone and connect with the landlady.

As for the quinine in the bag, it is just a disguise made by Pierre, and he will not do anything else, he will have to show the stuff when he speaks, only this thing is not raw and unproductive. As for the market, what is not sold or not, he will not blink an eye when he throws it all. The Europeans treated this thing as a treasure because they didn't know that on the southern shore of Lake Konochtitlan, there was a factory that produced it every day. The people of the kingdom of Mexica could use it for free, even for slaves.

"Pierre, you have to understand that now you are a merchant, no longer a soldier or a knight, the war has nothing to do with you, all you need is to sell these things and pay off the family's debts. I also know the things about Flanders and Hansea, even more in detail than you know. To be precise, this war is not directly related to Count Karl, even if it is to blame, it should be blamed on Baron Jiang, which is more appropriate. The commander of those devil warships from the East is Baron Jiang's mistress, that is, the Emperor of the East who once bombarded the Cathedral of Renaya and ruthlessly slaughtered the Knights Templar. The crusade against Fort Karl is nothing more than a manifestation of incompetence. Many people know that these medicines in your bag are not from the University of Naples at all, let alone the holy water of the Church, they come from Karlburg, more precisely, they all come from the East, that is, from the hands of the emperor. If my guess is correct, I'm afraid these medicines in your hands are also from Carburg or Baron's Castle, right? "Galliani is just a bad businessman who is deceived everywhere, but his fundamentals are solid. Deceiving people not only has to follow the other party's words, but also has to correct the other party's mistakes at critical moments, and show their own experience by the way. Only in this way can the deceived person slowly relax their vigilance.

"Am I going to repent? God will condemn you in doing so......" Pierre seemed ambivalent and helpless, which was tantamount to admitting Galliani's claim.

"My dear friends, it is the noble lords who spend their days in the Baronial Castle eating good food, drinking fine wine, and dancing with oriental beauties. If you pass by the sea near the Baron's Castle at night, you will see that the huge castle is almost as bright as the moon with lights, and that the ships moored in the harbor below it are all from the Empire, France, England and even Greece and the declining Byzantium. Do you think they're going to war? Does it have anything to do with us that they are fighting? Are they going to make Miss Baroness poor with the amount of alcohol? Let's go, I'll treat you to a glass of the best rum once we're inside, and then we'll slowly plan how to revive you and your family. "Pierre's performance is exactly what Galliani needs, and people have the lowest IQ in this state of psychological ambivalence. It's time to convince him even more, so you have to invest more, even if it's expensive!
