Chapter 322: Guild (Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a subscription)
After the waiter left, Soram naturally lived in the master's room on the third floor, and Muhammad took three of his subordinates to live in the entourage room on the second floor.
No matter how you recruit, someone has to serve it, otherwise it will be too cheap, and there are a lot of rooms on the second floor, and it is enough for four people, so adhering to the principle of not wasting, he picked three more subordinates to live in.
When did the three subordinates live in this high-end house, as soon as they entered it, they were attracted by the luxurious decoration of the house, and it was completely like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, and everything was fresh.
Especially after seeing the third floor, these guys are stupid, there is only one bedroom on the entire third floor, and on the opposite side of the bedroom is a huge bath, saying that it is a bath, in fact, it is a swimming pool, and there is no problem at all with a dozen people.
Looking out from the baths, you can see the huge beach of Port Carlin, with its beautiful white sand. I didn't expect this to be an invincible sea view room, I have to say, the boss here is still quite emotional.
Muhammad was very knowledgeable, and saw that Soram was very satisfied with this place, so he immediately took three dazzling subordinates to leave, and now the most important task is to make Soram feel at home, as for the matter of getting into a relationship, Muhammad knows very well what it means to be hasty and not reach, take your time, anyway, there is time.
After Muhammad and his men left, Soram couldn't wait to strip naked and go into the water.
"Whew! It's so cool! For Solam, who has lived in the north since he was a child, the weather in the southern desert is really unfriendly to him, the scorching sun and scorching temperature have taught Soram, a northerner, a hard lesson, and the sweat on his body has not been done along the way.
In addition, because of the need to save water, Solam has not taken a shower for more than ten days.
These days, Solam can only be kept clean with cleansing. But even with the cleansing technique, Soram still felt an itch on his body, and now that he finally had a chance to take a shower, Soram certainly washed hard.
Soram soaked for almost two hours, until Muhammad came up and called Soram to eat, and Soram reluctantly came out of the water, who made it so cool in the water.
When Soram climbed out of the bath, his hands and feet were white.
**********
After eating the very distinctive Karlinsan food, Muhammad took Solam to the most important entertainment mecca in Karlinshan, the two arenas!
If you haven't been to the Arena, you can't be to Kallinsan, these two huge arenas are, in a way, the whole of Port Carlin!
On the continent of Feren, it is not that there is no country that stipulates that gladiatorial fighting is legal, but no country has carried gladiatorial fighting to this point, and in Port Carlin, gladiatorial fighting is definitely a national sport! From the princes and nobles to the ownerless, they are very obsessed with this sport.
And the cost of entering the gladiatorial arena is very low, the outermost seat only costs a few copper coins, anyway, the owners of the two major arenas don't make money from tickets.
They rely on gambling! That is, gambling, in Port Carlin, the two major arenas will hold gladiatorial competitions, and at the same time, there will also be betting, and the way of gambling is also strange, when to be knocked down, when to be killed, who wins, who loses, or all together, can bet on anything, only what you can't think of, there is nothing they don't bet.
Of course, this is inevitably shady, otherwise how can the owners of the two arenas make money, but no one cares about this, it would be strange if there was no shady scene in Port Carlin, those viewers care most about fierce battles, and blood-soaked killings! Other than that, they don't care too much.
In addition to the two major arenas, the popularity of gladiatorial fighting has also given rise to many small gladiatorial arenas, and the attendance rate of these gladiatorial arenas is also very good.
This also led to the birth of a special industry, that is, gladiatorial merchants! The so-called gladiator merchants are slave traders who specialize in providing gladiators, but they are different from ordinary slave traders.
They seldom go out to capture slaves themselves, they just go around the slave market to exchange some potential young slaves, and then start training them, teaching them to fight, teaching them how to make the battle scenes bloodier, more beautiful, and how to stir up the enthusiasm of the audience.
is a bit like the star agent in the previous life, if a gladiator merchant can train a famous gladiator, then he will make a lot of money, you know, in Port Carlin, a famous gladiator, the appearance fee of a gladiatorial fight is even as high as tens of thousands of gold coins.
And that's not even counting the share of the results earned from manipulating gladiatorial fights with the Arena Boss. And they are much darker than those brokers in the previous life, those gladiators will not have any remuneration, basically all the income goes to the gladiator merchants, in the end, no matter how famous those gladiators are, he is just a slave, and the gladiator merchants are the masters.
Today, Muhammad brought Solam to the East End Arena, and the afternoon gladiatorial match was about to begin, and at several entrances to the East End Arena, there were bustling crowds, which was a bit of a football stadium in the previous life.
Solam and Mohammed managed to buy a relatively high position from the scalper, but there was no way, tickets to the two major arenas were so rare, and many of those top positions were booked by those who had money before. As for the tickets for those VIP areas, they are not necessarily available with money.
The people who could watch the gladiatorial matches in the VIP area were all powerful men in Port Carlin, and sometimes the king of Carlinsan would be there to watch the games himself.
As soon as they entered the arena, Solam and they had just sat down, someone came over with some tickets and asked if they wanted to place a bet.
"Two, today is the thirtieth game of Mobitira, if he can win this game, then he will break Kafka's record the year before, aren't you two ready to bet?"
"Who is your opponent today? What are the odds? "Mohammed is clearly a veteran, and he asked about today's opponent as soon as he came up.
Muhammad knew who that Mobitira was, the 16th gladiator who had risen to prominence in the last year, and who had just won his twenty-fifth victory the last time he came to Port Carlin.
As gladiators, their fate is almost predestined, that is, they die in the gladiatorial arena, they are either killed by younger and more powerful juniors, or they are manipulated by their own gladiator merchants and let him die in gladiatorial battles.
The only thing they can do is win one game at a time, and only then can they live longer. Only by winning this battle can they survive until the next appearance, because gladiator merchants will not kill their gladiators off the field, after all, it is too wasteful.
There is a rule in gladiatorial circles that if a gladiator can win a hundred fights, then he will be free, but since ancient times, no gladiator has won a hundred fights.
This Mobitira is lucky to survive to the thirtieth game.
"This time Mobitira's opponent is the murderer Tegula. The odds are 3.5 to 1 for Mobitira and 1 to 2 for Tegula
"What? This madman actually took part in a gladiatorial fight? Muhammad was obviously aware of this man, and when he heard the name, he was immediately startled. But the next moment, he immediately made a bet: "Then give me 50 gold for Tegula!" ”
The staff member who placed the bet wrote the slip for Muhammad and then asked Soram if he wanted to place a bet. Solam wasn't interested in this thing, they were talking so hilarious, but he didn't know anyone, what a.
"Who is that Tegula, why do you bet as soon as you hear his name? Could it be that guy is also a gladiator? Soram wondered why Muhammad reacted so much when he heard about Tegula.
"He's not a gladiator, he's the number one fighter of the Black Claw Guild! He's a pervert! It's a murderer! ”
Muhammad immediately explained to Solam the origin of this Tegula.
This guy is the number one thug of the Black Claw Guild, one of the six guilds in Port Carlin. Speaking of which, we have to talk about the so-called six guilds, which are the six largest gangs in Port Carlin.
They are: the Black Claw Guild, the Sharp Tooth Guild, the Black Sail Guild, the Phantom Guild, the Wild Sand Guild, and the Hammer Guild. Among them, except for the Black Claw Guild, the other five guilds all have their own fixed financial routes, and their financial resources are very powerful.
For example, the Black Sails Guild controls more than half of the sea smuggling in the port of Carlin, and they also work part-time as pirates. The Phantom Guild controlled most of the city's brothels, and there was also a sizable slave trade.
The Wild Sand Guild is even more powerful, they are actually the representatives of several powerful sand pirates in Port Carlin, they control the smallest territory in the city, but they are the ones who say they want to go out of the city.
The Hammer Guild, a guild of dwarves who control many of the workshops in Port Carlinn and are the largest arms dealers in Port Carlin, are very low-key in the city, but the other guilds rarely trouble them, because these dwarves are really not good at fighting.
As for the Sharp Tooth Guild, it is a guild that everyone hates, because this guild is composed of a group of beasts, and there is no territory on the ground, but in the underground waterways, it is their territory, and they make a living by selling news and selling drugs.
Only the Black Claw Guild has no fixed financial routes, and although the territory in the city is the largest, it does not have much oil and water, so they have the worst financial resources among the six guilds, and the number is not large. But they dare to meddle in any business, and often do things that cross the line, and the other five guilds don't like them very much.
It stands to reason that this kind of guild that does not know what to do and provokes the anger of the public should have been killed by the other five guilds a long time ago, but by now, they are still alive and well.
What can be relied on in this way is that they have the strongest force value among the six major guilds! There are not many people in this guild, but there are many masters in a group of cadres, so that the other guilds do not dare to act rashly.
And Tegula is one of them!
