Chapter 334: Successfully passed
The identity that I am most worried about is fine, and the goods are naturally even more fearless.
Walking to the carriage, Rip said that it was full of wine, and motioned to Fletcher to check it at will, but the latter was not careless, and several cars boarded and looked at it himself, shaking the barrels and mud jars inside one by one to confirm that they were filled with liquid, and then politely asked the mercenary captain to agree, and picked a jar to open it, and in an instant, the narrow carriage was filled with an intoxicating aroma.
The goddess of war is above! It smells so good!
"Captain Lepp, what is your wine?"
Fletcher swallowed involuntarily, looking like an alcoholic possessed body.
The winemaking industry is well developed, especially in the south and east, which is very suitable for growing high-quality grapes, and wine is also the pillar industry of the local area, and almost every household makes wine.
One of the most famous is the "Ruby" of "Roninbrac", which is actually a white wine, but because of the addition of another local specialty, the blood of longhorn ox, the color becomes as crystal clear as a deep red gemstone, hence the name, and its taste is also unique, and it is widely popular with nobles all over the world.
In addition to this high-end wine, other low-end wines of "Iveling" are also famous, such as the red wine produced in "Frontier Town", which is the best choice for ordinary civilians who do not have so many gold coins in their pockets.
As a native of Ive, Fletcher is naturally no stranger to wine, but he has guarded the frontier for more than ten years, only to see the "Ivey Collar" to buy wine, never seen the wine seller, just now Rep said that he transported a batch of wine to "Iveheim", he also thought about whether to persuade him, so as not to lose money, but when he turned his head and thought about it, the other party was just a mercenary captain who escorted the goods, so he didn't bother to say it, but he didn't expect this wine to be so powerful, just by smell, he could already defeat the pride of the Roninbrok people.
Incense is incense, but I don't know what it tastes like.
Rep outside the car did not directly answer the officer's question, and seeing the latter's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, he naturally knew what he was thinking.
Fletcher got out of the car and reluctantly handed back the jar, but Rip did not cover it, but placed it on the ground, then turned around and got into the car, and carried another jar of "redemption" and a few barrels of "forgiveness".
"What is your name, officer?"
"Forget to introduce yourself, Fletcher, captain of the 9th Squadron of the 3rd Brigade of the "Mountain Guard" in the border town. ”
Rip nodded, pointed to the wine on the ground, and said:
"Then I'll call you Fletcher, I won't say what this wine is called, you can taste it yourself, and all these on the ground will be given to you, let the brothers taste it."
Fletcher was overjoyed, but hesitated.
"Isn't this good, this is the goods you helped people escort, and there will be no compensation when the time comes? No, by the way, why didn't you see anyone from the Chamber of Commerce? ”
Rep laughed, pointed to himself and said:
"I am the president of this chamber of commerce, these wines are mine, you are welcome!"
Anyway, this is all explained by the lord in advance, and wherever he goes, the wine will be delivered, and there is no hope of making money with them at all.
The squadron leader of a "Mountain Guard" may not be more important than the lord of "Montzke", but Rep is much more generous, nothing else, that is, the mercenary group will establish a branch here next, and they will definitely have to ask for help from the other party at that time.
When Fletcher heard this, it turned out that Rip was not only the head of the mercenary group, but also established a chamber of commerce, which was called admiration in his heart, but he turned his head and persuaded bitterly:
"Captain Lepp, since these wines are yours, then I'll say it directly, don't go to Iveheim to sell it, you can't afford to sell it at a good price, our Ivey Ling's wine is not bad."
"I know this, I have also drunk the Ronin Bracker ruby, it does have a unique flavor, but you taste my wine first, don't refuse, I know you are on duty, but don't you personally inspect the goods of the passing merchants? What if it's a dangerous good? ”
After speaking, he squeezed his eyebrows again, as if everyone was his own person.
Fletcher didn't have much to hesitate at this time, he was a good drinker himself, not to mention that the eyes of the soldiers next to him had begun to glow green, picked up the open wine jar on the ground, and poured a big sip of it happily.
As a result, he couldn't stop taking this sip at all, and his mouth burned like a flame, burning from his throat all the way to his stomach, and there was no doubt that he had never drunk such a pleasant wine, compared to which those wines were simply the stuff of a girl.
Seeing that Fletcher was about to drink the whole jar of wine in one go, the soldiers next to him couldn't hold it anymore and hurried up to stop it, on the one hand, they didn't want to see the captain get drunk, which would be severely punished, and on the other hand, if he was allowed to drink it all, then what would he drink.
Fletcher, who was still unsatisfied, put down the jar that had already drunk half of it, and burped, his amount of alcohol seemed to be very good, and his face did not change, but looking at the jar of wine held tightly in his hand, he knew that he had been completely conquered.
When he learned that this was the recent famous "redemption", Fletcher's eyes when he looked at Repp completely changed, if he was just an ordinary friend at the beginning, then he is now a lover in love, or the kind of long-distance relationship that is about to separate.
There was no way, Lei Pu said that he had to hurry up, the people and goods were checked, and he paid a toll according to the regulations, and he could go.
In the old world, there was no tariff, and different countries were taxed on a per capita basis, but each province like the empire had independent economic rights, and taxes would be levied between provinces, but fortunately, the tax rate was not high, and the border towns of "border towns" were generally two silver shillings per person, and some richer provinces, such as Rick Ling, would only symbolically collect one silver shilling in order to encourage trade.
Passing Ferrep had already been ready, and handed over a small cloth bag containing twenty-one golden crowns.
After all the formalities were completed, and it was agreed to come back for another drink, and with the kind smiles of Fletcher and the other mountain guards, the forgiveness of the mercenary group finally entered the city gates and officially stepped into the territory of the Empire.
Although they had already said before that they would not stay and continue to hurry, the young men of the mercenary group were still smiling, after all, crossing this threshold is equivalent to entering a real civilized society, and when they return to "Fetamburg" in the future, they can definitely take it out and show off with others.
Rep also came to the stone and Fitandila, he was also quite happy, the mercenary group passed the inspection, and it seemed that the undead creature brought back by the lord was not caught, everything went well, but the next whispered word of the stone made the smile on his face instantly freeze.
"Okay, old Rip, do you still want to conquer me in bed? Do you like long legs? Then when I go back, I'll find you an orc boy! ”
PS: "I Am Not the God of Medicine" is so good-looking, a rare realistic theme, not sensational, not pretentious, the wall crack is recommended!
