Ji Ran followed the clues provided by the storyteller and found the drunken down-and-out poet in the bar.

It turned out that this down-and-out bard was once the son of a baron of the Confederation of Ligurias Nadir, and later died in battle against the army of Thana, and because he was on the wrong side, he died in vain.

Along with his entire family fortune, he was confiscated by Mordrac and distributed among the new nobles.

Then, this nobleman gradually fell into loneliness.

Fortunately, the sister of this nobleman married a low-ranking nobleman named Richeleus.

Although the rank is very low, it can be regarded as an aristocratic class, and this down-and-out bard barely survives with the help of his sister.

Later, he saw the article written by his brother-in-law from his sister's house, and thought it was good, so he sold the story to the storyteller for a few gold coins, but it was squandered in a few days in the bar.

Originally, he thought that this was not an important matter, but as everyone knows, he has inadvertently changed the fate of his sister and himself.

"In other words, this is an article written by your brother-in-law, right?" Ji Ran looked at Stiaas and asked.

Stiath was Richele's brother-in-law, the name of the down-and-out bard.

"What? Is there something wrong? Stiath asked, looking at the beautiful and noble elf girl in front of him with drunken eyes.

"Can you show me the original?" Ji Ran looked at Stiaas and asked.

"Want to see the original? Then treat me to a drink. Stiaas said jokingly, he was full of interest in the beautiful and noble aristocratic girl in front of him, but he was also full of awe.

Because he knew that the beautiful elf girl in front of him was by no means an ordinary person, and the clothes and grooming on her body revealed endless nobility, even the jewel necklace hanging down from her snow-white chest was by no means something that ordinary nobles could have.

The fact that she can appear here in such a high-profile manner, and no drunkard dares to come forward to provoke her, has already explained the identity of the other party, which is by no means unusual.

"Okay, two beers." Ji Ran said to the attendants beside him.

The attendant immediately agreed, and went to the bar.

When the attendant was ordered to ask for two barrels of beer, everyone around him was stunned.

When drinking in a bar, it's all about drinking in a cup, using a large glass for a large amount of alcohol, and using a small cup for a poor amount of alcohol.

"Drunk, huh? Are you sure you want two barrels of wine? The bar owner, touching his beard, asked with a smile.

However, before his laughter could fully unfold, he was dazzled by the gold coins thrown by the other party.

It turned out that the other party paid the price of ten gold coins, not to mention two barrels, even three barrels of wine were enough.

"Don't talk nonsense, bring the wine." After the man in black finished speaking, he returned to Ji Ran's side in a proper manner and stood quietly behind him.

The bar owner was stunned by the other party's eyes, and quickly and obediently moved two barrels of wine to the designated table.

"Honorable lady, the wine you ask for is the finest rye." The bar owner said to Ji Ran very respectfully.

Ji Ran nodded elegantly, and then didn't look at the bar owner again, and his eyes fell on Stias's body again.

"If you don't have enough wine, you can ask for more." Ji Ran said to Stias.

"Thank you for your generosity, it's enough." Stiaas thanked drunkenly, then poured two beers, handed one to Ji Ran, and then touched Ji Ran's glass with his own glass.

"Come, beautiful and distinguished young lady, I toast you." Stias said drunkenly.

"Huh?" Seeing that Stiath was so rude, the squire standing behind Ji Ran had a terrifying expression.

Ji Ran gave the guards a look, and their expressions softened a little.

"Hehe, okay, then I'll do it myself first." Stiath smiled knowingly, then took a drink of his own.

After drinking three glasses in a row, Stiath told Ji Ran the story of how he sold Richeleus.

After Ji Ran heard the ins and outs of the matter, she became more interested in Richeleus's text, and she wanted to see the full text.

Stiath agreed, and agreed to meet here in three days.

Three days later, Ji Ran came to the tavern again, but Stiaas did not come.

I waited until late, but I didn't wait.

The guards were a little worried about Ji Ran's safety, after all, her identity was different, and she was the person His Royal Highness Mordrake cared about the most, and there must be no surprise.

If something happened to Ji Ran in the city, they would definitely not be able to afford it.

Seeing that the early hours of the morning are approaching, and it is time to return to the residence, His Royal Highness Mordrake will never allow Ji Ran to spend the night outside, even in a very safe place.

"Miss Aiyi, it's time, it's time for us to go back." The guard said to Ji Ran.

Ji Ran looked at the mechanical watch on his wrist, which was used to keep time, although it was mechanically made, but it was very accurate, and the error of a day was only a few seconds.

She looked at the time, it was indeed time to go back, although she wanted to wait a little longer, but it was not easy to embarrass these guards, they were all thinking about their own safety, if they did not cooperate with their work, it would be difficult for them to do it.

After all, they are not easy, every guard is the most elite warrior selected in the army, training hard and sweating like rain on weekdays, in order to be able to protect Miss Aiyi's net worth and life at a critical time.

They do this errand, in fact, the salary is not very high, only a salary of 100 gold coins a month, and they have to support their families, so if they are punished because of their own affairs, Ji Ran is still a little unbearable.

"Alright, let's go." Ji Ran nodded, stood up, and walked outside.

However, as soon as Ji Ran walked to the door, he bumped into the belated Stias head-on.

It turned out that Stias didn't come late on purpose today, but that his brother-in-law Richeleu was actually at home today, and he tried to get the text several times without success, and finally had to let his sister coax his brother-in-law to the bed, and he had the opportunity to take the text of Richeleus and bring it out secretly.

Fortunately, he had good luck today, and when he first arrived at the bar, he happened to meet Ji Ran, who was about to leave.

"I'm sorry, honorable miss, I'm late, this is the original work you wanted, and it was written by my brother-in-law." Stiath handed the article to Ji Ran.

Ji Ran took a closer look, and sure enough, it was the original, and the imprint of the pen and ink was very clear.

"Well, thank you, this is your reward, thank you again." Ji Ran handed a bag of gold coins to Stias.

Stia took the bag, he was really surprised, he didn't expect that an article by his brother-in-law would be sold for such a high price, it was really unexpected.
