Early the next morning, Levi did not go out of the city with his troops to hunt the enemy, but asked about buying and selling houses through Tiemu, a native of Blackstone Fort.

Although Tiemu himself didn't know much about this, there were people in his clan who did, and soon he ran back to his Hammer Clan, and brought back an old dwarf with snow-white hair and beard, and a wrinkled face, who looked like he didn't know how many hundred years had lived, and said that he was an elder in charge of this aspect of the Hammer Clan.

After listening to Levi's request, the elder didn't say anything, didn't even say his own name, only told Levi that he would bargain fiercely for a while, and then quickly took Levi into a shop, which was very close to the place where the dwarves who served as quartermasters in the iron lock, and fully met Levi's requirements for convenient transportation.

After entering the store, Levi was a little surprised to find that there were several human beings in the store, and even one of the middle-aged men looked like a nobleman.

It seemed to be alarmed by the movements of Levi and the others, and they all looked at it together, but after seeing Levi, they were also a little surprised that there would be humans here, but when they saw the old dwarf, they all had bitter faces, only the middle-aged man dressed as a nobleman barely squeezed out a smile from his face, and said with some chatter: "Ah, Elder, you are here, do you want to drink something?" Today"

Before he could finish speaking, the old dwarf glared at him angrily: "Okay, human, stop talking this nonsense, you have been saying that you are bankrupt before, so there is no way to compensate me for my losses, unless you sell this shop to make money, and now I have brought you this opportunity!" ”

At this, the old dwarf pushed Levi and signaled that this was his chance, and then the old dwarf himself stood aside and kept silent, because he didn't need to speak for the time being.

The middle-aged man glanced at Levi again with some surprise, but he still quickly adjusted his mood, after all, in this dwarf's hometown, it is not easy to find someone to take over his shop, his reputation has stinked here, and the human in front of him is undoubtedly an outsider, and he must seize this opportunity.

"Aha, this handsome warrior, I wonder where you come from?"

The strange tone of the middle-aged man made Levi affirm the identity of the other party, there is no doubt that he is a nobleman, and there is a high probability that he is a nobleman from the empire, because all the nobles in the knight kingdom are knights, and their character is destined to never talk like this.

"I'm Levi, the Chosen Hero, without further ado, I want your shop, you can make a price."

The decoration of this store looks good, the area must be at least nearly two hundred square meters, and it occupies a good geographical location, to be honest, Levi thinks that the other party should be very profitable, but he does not see any goods in the store now, and the old dwarf told him to bargain fiercely, obviously the other party has obvious shortcomings and weaknesses that Levi does not know.

Levi knew that the old dwarves would never cheat themselves, so either the middle-aged man had a problem with his business, or he had a problem with his life, but no matter what it was, he was definitely on the blacklist of dwarves, otherwise there was no way to explain it.

The middle-aged man rubbed his hands: "Aha, okay, then I'll get straight to the point, I need capital turnover, so I can't help but transfer this store to you, a fixed price, 300 gold coins!" ”

To be honest, the price was fair to Levi's, as he had already learned about the prices at Fort Blackstone.

Blackstone Fort was hollowed out of an entire mountain, but this does not mean that they did not expand underground, and it can even be said that only about one-third of the entire Blackstone Fort is above-ground, and the remaining two-thirds of the area is underground.

After all, the dwarves are the best race, and they also prefer to live underground, and they also prefer to live underground. In addition to farmland, pastures, numerous ranger posts, barracks, city walls, and more, most of the important buildings, including residential areas, commercial areas, armories, and the most important entertainment site for the dwarves, taverns, are located underground.

And the area where this shop is located happens to be a prime location underground, no matter what you do, it can be said that you can make a sure profit, Levi really doesn't understand why the other party is so urgent, and wants to sell it with such a small amount of money, and what is even more surprising is that it seems that no dwarf is willing to buy it until now!

However, thinking about the old dwarf elder's previous advice, and Levi's did not have so many funds in his hands, he still shook his head very indifferently on the surface: "No, that's too much, I can only give out 50 gold coins at most." ”

"What?!"

The middle-aged man suddenly jumped up as if he had been bitten by a dog, and his triangular eyes also flashed a fierce light, pointing at Levi with one hand, and said very angrily: "You are too much, I originally wanted to give you a cheaper price for the sake of everyone who is also a human being, but you are too little!" ”

Li Weiston's eyes narrowed, he originally just wanted to suppress the price, and the two sides talked to each other again, almost more than 100 gold coins could be accepted by themselves, but he didn't expect the other party to be angry all of a sudden.

It's just that in his opinion, the other party's performance is too exaggerated, and deceiving those solid-eyed dwarves may be successful, but it doesn't work on himself, and he doesn't like the other party's attitude, looking at his triangular eyes, he knows that he is definitely not a good person.

"I can only offer 50 gold coins, and if you don't want to, forget it, you can wait for the next person who is willing to bid." After Levi finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave, without the slightest nostalgia at all.

Although the old dwarf elder who led the way next to him was a little surprised by Levi's decisiveness, he didn't say anything, this was the other party's choice, he was just doing little Tiemu a favor, although he also wanted to solve his own little trouble by the way, but it was definitely just by the way.

The middle-aged man didn't expect Levi to be so decisive, seeing that the other party had already strode out, he finally gritted his teeth: "Wait, wait, please wait!" At the end, he couldn't help but shout directly.

Levi smiled slightly and stopped, but he didn't change his head, so as not to let the other party notice his expression, he just said in a cold voice: "Is there anything else?" ”

"I, I agreed, 50 gold coins, but I'm going to trade it now!"

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said, he didn't agree and couldn't help it, because what he had done before, he had completely stinked in this dwarven castle, although he tried countless means later, but in addition to spending a lot of money, he didn't bring back any benefits, and still no dwarf was willing to come to him to buy things.

In the end, he could only sit and eat, and even had to decide to sell the store to make up enough money to return to his hometown, but he didn't expect to sell it for three months, and he didn't even ask for a price.

Although 50 gold coins was a small amount, far less than a tenth of his total investment, he really had no better choice, at least these gold coins would allow him to hire some warriors in the tavern, and then follow the caravan back to the border city of Hermgart, his hometown.

He didn't want to wait any longer, otherwise who knew what would happen, he was already unlucky enough during this time?

Levi didn't expect things to go so smoothly at all, until he finished paying, signing it, and the system prompted him that the store was in his name, he was still a little dizzy, this was too smooth, right?

Then he saw the middle-aged man who got the money, took out 2 gold coins from it, handed them to the old dwarf elder, and then rushed out of the store without looking back, Levi's face suddenly became a little strange, could this be an introduction fee? Dwarves will do this too?

But before he could ask, a man and a woman suddenly shouted from the shop: "Wait, my lord, don't leave us, you said you want to take us back to Rick!" ”

Rick's Territory is one of the Empire's territories near the Grey Mountains and near Blackstone Castle, and is also the province where the Imperial Capital of Aldolph is located, and the border city of Helmgart is also part of Rick's Province.

The middle-aged man didn't look back, but ran faster: "Don't dream, I won't take you two back together, you can stay here for the rest of your life and revive your family here, hahaha!" ”

Probably because of the money, he was in a much better mood than before, but the laughter and the words he said made him very much like a villain.

Levi couldn't help but look at the old dwarf elder, and thought to himself, do you want to say something?

The old dwarf put away the two gold coins and nodded slightly at Levi: "Levi, I heard that Iron Lock and Little Iron Wood said that you are a very good human being, and now I know." Thanks to you, I was able to recover this compensation, and after he was found out that he was selling fakes, I thought that his store would never be able to sell. Now that things are over here, I won't stay any longer. ”

It turned out to be a compensation fee.,It's just a compensation fee of 2 gold coins.,As for you, an elder who seems to be definitely not low in strength and status?,Do you come to chase it in person?。。。

Levi had a better understanding of the dwarf's character, but he still politely sent the other party away, and also secretly made a note that no one could owe money to the dwarf in the future.

And when he returned, he found that the two humans, a man and a woman, were still standing there, looking at him with some fear and pity.

Levi looked each other up and down, and found that they were not too old, the man looked a little older than himself, but he should not be more than 25 years old, and the woman should be about the same age as himself, they all looked a little temperamental, not like ordinary farmers or warriors.

Levi couldn't figure out whether they were husband and wife or brother and sister, but if he combined the middle-aged man who had just run away, Levi could slightly guess what they had experienced, but he still wanted the other party to tell him personally.

"Why are you still here?"

"Please take us in, my lord, for the Lord has abandoned us, and if we leave this shop, we will have no place to go." The young man was the first to speak, and his tone was very low, while the young woman continued to look at herself pitifully.

"Sir, is that the guy just now?"

Levi dragged a chair and sat down, "Well, I think we can talk a little bit about this lord, this shop, and you." ”

To be honest, he didn't plan to directly drive out the couple of men and women in front of him, because when he had just sent the old dwarf elder out, the other party said a few words to him, saying that these two people were not bad, and maybe they could be Levi's assistants and manage the shop.

Listening to Levi's words, the couple and the man were immediately happy, and then they hurriedly told everything they knew.

It turned out that they were a brother and sister, both from the border city of Hermgat of the empire, and they had also been wealthy, and there was a baron in the family, and when they passed on to their father's generation, they not only owned several estates, but even had a village as a fief.

It's just that their luck is really not good, in a greenskin raid, the village and the manor were burned, and the two of them who happened to go out to study in the imperial capital were left alive, and the whole family was completely decayed.

Although the brother and sister were full of grief, they still mustered up the courage and prepared to revitalize their family. Even if they are down, after all, they are the descendants of nobles, they are more educated than ordinary peasants, and they can more or less hold a position in other noble families.

It's just that they don't have much experience, but they meet people unladylikely, and they happen to meet the Lord named Truss who just ran away is recruiting people, saying that he wants to organize people to go to the dwarves' Black Rock Castle to make a fortune, and promised them a fairly bright future, saying that when the dwarves marry their daughters-in-law, they use pure gold of equal height as a dowry, and they will definitely be able to make a lot of money.

The two brothers and sisters were immediately moved, although they felt that the dwarven dowry mentioned by Lord Truss was too exaggerated, but the border city where they were located was less than a hundred miles away from the dwarves' Blackstone Castle, and they had more or less heard the rumors of the dwarves, so in the end, they gritted their teeth, and in order to revitalize the family, they still came to the Blackstone Castle.

At first, it was quite smooth, and he made money for a few days, but soon something unfortunate happened, after that Lord Truss saw the wealth of the dwarves, he began to use his brains, all kinds of shortages, shoddy.

It's a pity that he really didn't have the material to do this, and he was soon discovered by the dwarves. Although the dwarves have a bold personality, they are not stupid, and of course they will not tolerate this kind of thing, but for the sake of the friendship between humans and dwarves, ordinary dwarves have reluctantly convinced themselves that they should not come next time.

But the Lord Truss didn't know what was wrong, and he got worse and worse, until he provoked a group of dwarven butchers.

You must know that in the dwarven society, only the most crazy and desperate warriors will become butchers, because they have abandoned all their defensive equipment, except for the weapons in their hands, there is nothing important on their bodies, and they will even shave their hair into a cockscomb head, and dye it quite eye-catching bright yellow, and some butchers even rush to the battlefield shirtless, which looks absolutely grumpy.

Usually even ordinary dwarves don't dare to mess with them, but now they have been deceived by humans, how can they bear it? Immediately smashed the store, and then walked away.

Lord Truss, who suffered heavy losses, immediately wanted to cry without tears, at this time he found the guards of Blackstone Castle, and wanted the other party to pursue the responsibility of those butchers, but those butchers were hovering on the verge of death every day, and there was no deposit at all, and Blackstone Castle was also very dissatisfied with what Lord Truss had done before, he had deceived many dwarves before, and it was good not to trouble him.

In the end, the matter was over, and Lord Truss didn't get a penny, but spent a lot of money on repairing the shop.

After the repairs, Lord Truss found that after what had happened before, no dwarves were willing to come to his shop anymore, because his affairs had been spread throughout Blackstone Castle by the big-mouthed dwarves.

Lord Truss was suddenly in a predicament, and at this time, something to make matters worse happened, that is, the guards who had been following Lord Truss rebelled, and under the leadership of a great swordsman named Tern, they ran away directly with the remaining property of Lord Truss.

At this moment, Lord Truss finally felt fear, because the environment outside has become worse and worse recently, a large number of beastmen and greenskins are openly wandering around, with his small body, it will become a lunch for each other in ten minutes when he goes out, and it will be difficult for him to return to his hometown!

He wanted to sell his shop and hire someone to escort him back to the Empire, but he was desperate to find out that his reputation in Blackstone Fort was so bad that no dwarves wanted to buy his shop, not even a glance, and even if he sold it at a low price, the dwarves would rather not take advantage of it!

It is precisely because of this series of reasons that Levi was able to buy this value-for-money store at such a low price, you must know that Lord Truss's beam bought this store for hundreds of gold coins, not to mention the follow-up decoration or something!

As for why Lord Truss still owes the dwarf elder of the Brute Hammer clan 2 gold coins, they don't know the details, but Levi is not in the mood to inquire, he only knows that he owes the dwarf elder and the Brute Hammer clan a favor, all because of them, he took such a big advantage.

In a good mood, Levi also took in a pair of brothers and sisters in front of him, because his shop was in need of manpower, and the two brothers and sisters in front of him, a housekeeper and a maid chief, were all rare soldiers of the 2nd order, who had served Lord Truss for a long time, and there were originally people who had little brothers and sisters under him, and there was absolutely no problem in managing this shop.

Of course, he also received a task, that is, to avenge the other party, kill some green skins, after success, they will follow him permanently, and loyalty can be expected, they have long since lost any idea of revitalizing the family, just want to find a rich and powerful person to take refuge, such as Levi.

"My lord, what kind of products are we going to focus on next?"

After officially joining Levi and becoming his subordinate, the elder brother Dick immediately became a dog, and his sister Kate also looked at him with concern, because it was very important to them.

The reputation left by Lord Truss was too bad before, it had been a long time since dwarves had visited here, and even some dwarves at the extreme point would rather take a detour than pass through the street in front of the shop, which shows the degree of resentment.

Levi thought for a moment: "Well, although there is a change of owner here, I am afraid that the impression of the dwarves will not be able to change for a while, but I have a good idea, that is, we don't need to do business with the ordinary dwarves here, our target is those God's chosen heroes." ”

"God's chosen hero?" The brother and sister were immediately surprised, because in their opinion, the Chosen Heroes are all high-ranking and rare big shots, will they really come here?

"Yes, and I can expect that there might be some bleakness at first, but soon business will be unusually hot."

Levi smiled, looking a little mysterious, perhaps, that would completely change his current predicament.
