Chapter 6: The Seven Cats Hotel

"There are a total of eighty sets of intact ones here, plus the damaged ones, count you as a thousand gold coins, how about it?"

"A thousand gold coins!" Teucer shouted in surprise.

"Young man, this is the last relic left by your companions, you are fast enough, or wait for two days and get rid of it in minutes."

"Two thousand gold coins!"

"What? Your Highness, are you crazy? Before Teucer could react, he was confused by Zhang Hao's bidding again.

Black Iron was also surprised, this thing shouldn't be a fool, right? Too much money to spend nowhere?

"Master Black Iron, two thousand gold coins, I don't want any of these equipment, but I just need one message, how about it?"

"Hehe, sir, there are rules in the black market, dwarves, I only sell equipment here, as for Your Excellency wants news, please go find the person who sells news, it's too late, I'm closing, please" After Heitie finished speaking, he drove everyone out of the door.

Zhang Hao and others were also helpless, how to persuade the stubborn dwarf to add money were indifferent, insisting on the principle of buying if they wanted to buy, not buying and getting out, and finally Zhang Hao, who was helpless, could only leave five hundred gold coins before leaving, hoping to keep these equipment for a while, if they really couldn't find the news, they would come back and buy this batch of equipment.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that this store is not satisfying to you, so shall we go to the next location?"

"Go, Seven Cats Hotel, lead the way"

"Yes, ladies and gentlemen, please come here."

"Your Highness, let's not go back to rest, why are we going to these seven cats" Obviously, Echard, a mage who doesn't exercise much, is a little tired.

"If I don't go back today, I'll stay at the Seven Cats Hotel, and I'll see if I can find useful news tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, who made you the boss," Echard was a little decadent. And Teucer was obviously still thinking about the deal he had just made, and didn't participate in the conversation between Zhang Hao and Echard. The sunset hanging in the sky slowly disappeared with the pace of everyone.

The Seven Cats Inn is located in the village outside the walls of Fort Marien, and the large sign is the faΓ§ade of the hotel and the logo of the village, and the seven nimble black cats depicted on the signboard are also vivid.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have done my work for today, and if I need it tomorrow, Master Teucer knows where to find me, so please allow me to take my leave." Goblin Rice saluted the crowd and left.

Zhang Hao and others pushed the door in, and the lively sound mixed with the fragrance of wine rushed to their faces. After a hard day's work, tired people come to the tavern to relax.

"How about welcoming guests from afar, warming up with a glass of wine and driving away the cold of the night?"

The old version of the bar is a middle-aged uncle with a big beard, like a big dwarf.

"Three rooms, three rums."

"Guests, wait a minute, Ross go and pack up the three rooms and come out, please wait a minute, the wine will come soon."

Zhang Hao and the three of them snuggled in front of the bar, feeling the lively atmosphere around them, "If you are tired, go and rest first, I am waiting for someone here"

"Your Highness, who do you want to see? Will it be dangerous? Teucer looked around with some wariness.

"Don't worry, I'll take the guards with me if there is danger, you half-baked can't protect me for the time being."

Teucer was a little embarrassed and scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Come, gentlemen, your wine, do you come to Marienburg for pleasure or business?"

"It's a business, has anything happened to this Marienburg lately?"

"Hehe, do you want to ask for news or buy news?"

Zhang Hao glanced at the smiling boss, and then put ten gold coins on the table, and the innkeeper just wanted to put it away, Zhang Hao clasped his hand on the bar table, and looked at the boss with the same smile.

The boss withdrew his hands, turned around and took the large wine bottle, and hurriedly poured it for Zhang Hao to refill, "Your Excellency, what news do you need?" The innkeeper rubbed his hands, and his eyes couldn't leave the gold coins held by Zhang Hao's hands for three seconds.

"The Legation of Bretonnia." Zhang Hao lowered his voice very low and asked with a hint of mystery.

"Uh...... My lord, this ......" The boss was a little hesitant when he heard Zhang Hao want to ask Bretonnia, and glanced at Teucer and Echard beside Zhang Hao.

"Boss, bring them some food, they're hungry." Zhang Hao understood that although these two people came with him, the boss was not very relieved.

"Your Highness, we ......"

"It's okay, go ahead, you eat first, I'll ask something"

"Let's go, Teucer, by His Highness's side, be obedient, and think slowly if you don't understand, otherwise you think anyone can be Your Highness." Echard pulled the ignorant Teucer away, from a farmer to the personal guard of His Royal Highness, there was still a lot to learn.

"Your Highness? Who are you? ”

"I'm just a news buyer now"

"Yes, my lord" The innkeeper turned his head slightly closer to Zhang Hao, "I heard some time ago that the Bretonnian envoy was attacked on the way here, it is said that the Norse people were trying to stop Fort Marien's request for help, and I also heard that at that time, only the Holy Maiden relied on the pure magic of life to come to the rescue of Fort Marien, just the day before yesterday, the new guard of Bretonnia arrived, and I also saw it, passing in front of our door. ”

"The legation has been attacked? Only one person survived? Isn't life magic all group magic? Do you see the corpses of the Norse? ”

"My lord, I don't know about this, do the Norse probably take all the corpses with them when they retreat, and what kind of god do they want to sacrifice to them?"

"How's that new group of guards?"

"My lord, let me tell you, maybe Bato is afraid, but this time they are all elites, everyone walks, that posture, even the amplitude of shaking their hands is the same! It's really powerful, but the fragrance on their bodies is a little too strong, which makes people a little unacceptable."

"Scent? How far were you from them at that time? How can there be a fragrance? ”

"My lord, this is said to be the guard of the goddess's temple, and it is understandable that he is dressed up in incense, as for how far it is, it may be a hundred meters."

"A hundred meters?" Zhang Hao muttered this distance in a low voice, and then thought about how many times he met with Isha and didn't ask about such a strong fragrance, where did this group of people come from.

"My lord, what else do you ask?" The innkeeper asked Zhang Hao to stare at the gold coin, as if he was afraid that it would disappear in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Hao allocated half of the gold to the innkeeper, "How many Norse people are there in the attack on West Province?" ”

The innkeeper gently wiped it with the gold coin, and replied without raising his head, "Probably a full army, who knows, they never dared to come to the boundaries of Marienburg to plunder." ”

"Every time? How long is it? ”

"About twice a year, the time is uncertain, but it will always come, the time is almost the same before, the army of Fort Marion set off, this time I don't know why, the army is hiding in the city like a mouse, and the defense is very tight."

"Why didn't I feel tight?"

The innkeeper looked at the remaining gold coins on the table and remained silent, and Zhang Hao had no choice but to give him all the rest.

"My lord, this is exclusive, absolutely worth, I have a cousin who is on duty in the Marienburg Reserve, although they are not assembled, but they have sent down all the weapons and armor, let them be placed at home, and order that once a crisis breaks out in the city, everyone will immediately join the war, no, the fields are not planted, all are on standby in the city, I guess it is to guard against the Norse, otherwise how can I do this."

"The plainclothes are all out, it seems that this Marienburg is a pit," Zhang Hong was a little helpless, drank the wine and asked for a piece of meat, and walked towards Teucer's place.
