Chapter Eighty-Nine: Revisiting the Spring Grass Tavern
"Teacher, what's wrong?" Snorlan asked right away.
"This matter is not for us to manage, don't ask about it again." Carmelo said solemnly.
Snorlan nodded, signaling that he understood.
Two black steeds galloped in the night, and due to the tensions in Ward Harbor, fewer and fewer people came out at night.
Seeing that Carmelo was not heading home, Snolan asked curiously, "Teacher, where are we going?" ”
Carmelo glanced at him and took out the bag Baron Evans had given him: "Sell this piece of jade!" Sell early and save trouble. ”
"Then where can we sell it?" Snorlan asked curiously.
"Springgrass Tavern!" Carmelo swung his whip and sped up with a "snap", and Snorlan had to follow.
At nine o'clock, Snorlan followed Carmelo to Buffalo Street, which was still bustling and seemed to be affected by the tensions. Snorlan dismounts with Carmelo at the Springgrass Tavern.
Snorlan had been to the Grassgrass Tavern once, where he had debated, and had received a magic ring that he had given to Theresa, and which he now wore on his hand. Sitting at the door of the Springgrass Tavern was not the elven woman named Naomi that he had seen when he had come back to Snolan, but another enchanting young girl.
"Good evening, you two." The young girl gave a light salute, with a thousand charms between her brows, revealing a hint of affection.
Of course, Snorlan was unmoved, he had seen a lot of beautiful girls, although this young girl was indeed very beautiful, and there was a kind of breathtaking beauty, but it was not enough to make Snolan shake.
Carmelo waved his hand, didn't say a word, and walked inside with Snowland. The young girl, however, was not annoyed, smiled and stepped aside, and let the door go.
The Springgrass Tavern is still a scene of singing and dancing, and the dignitaries of Port Ward are still wandering in the Springgrass Tavern, where the band and singers sing sweet songs, and the scantily clad dancers are lined up and dancing.
Snorlan and Carmelo picked a table and sat down, which was in a very good position and had been empty until now, simply because it was reserved for Shakur, a famous treasure merchant in Port Ward.
A waitress came over and asked what the two wanted, but Carmelo blocked the menu handed by the waitress and said to her, "Go and call Shakur and say that Vader of Oude is looking for him." Wine...... Just take two of the most expensive bottles. ”
The waitress chuckled and bowed, and went down. After a while, she came over with two beautifully packaged bottles of wine.
"Two bottles of Port Ward Night, 200 gold coins." The waitress smiled sweetly and opened two bottles of wine.
Carmelo nodded, and the waitress added, "Mr. Shakur will be here soon." ”
Carmelo shook his head, pulled out a necklace, and said with a smile, "You give this to him." ”
The waitress nodded, took the necklace and went back.
Snorlan asked quietly, "Teacher, what did you give?" ”
"A necklace I bought in his hand in the early years, he told me it was a magic necklace, I bought it for 500 gold coins and looked at it, it was a fake. The necklace was worth a maximum of twenty silver coins, and I kept it as a lesson. ”
As he spoke, a richly dressed middle-aged man walked towards the two Cameros Nolan with a wine glass and a smile.
Carmelo chuckled, "Well, here it is." ”
"Aha, Ranger of the Wilderness! It's been a long time since we've seen each other! The middle-aged man, Shakur laughed.
"Shakur, where's my necklace?" Carmelo chuckled at Shakur with his glass.
"Here we are!" Shakur pulled out a new necklace and handed it to Carmelo, "This is a real thing!" I said, I sell goods here to return and exchange, even if it has been ten years, I have to give you a real one, this is the integrity of our businessmen! ”
"Honest fart!" Carmelo took a sip, "If you weren't Marlene's friend, I would have hacked you to death!" ”
"Hehe, this is the relationship between us and the buyer!" Shakur took a sip of his wine and said with a smile.
"I'm looking for you this time to sell you something." Carmelo took out the small bag and handed it to Shakur, who opened the bag, took out the piece of jade, looked at it carefully for a while, and nodded.
"How much is it worth?" Carmelo asked faintly.
"It's a good thing, but it's a pity that it can only be collected, and it can't be made into magic equipment, at most 1000 gold coins." Shakurma said as he squinted his eyes as he held the jadeite.
"Cheng, I'll sell it to you." Carmelo didn't bother to bargain.
"Well, the Revenant is refreshing!" Shakur clapped his hands and laughed. He took out his gold card.
Carmelo said to Snolan: "What about your gold card? ”
Snorlan took out the gold card from his bag, and Carmelo took it, handed it over to Shakur, and handed it to Snolan, saying: "This is for you, you still have a lot of ways to go in the future, and you can't do it without money." ”
Snorlan hurriedly said, "Teacher, I still have money." ”
Carmelo smiled and said: "You have it, you have it, I give it to you and I give it to you, and the two have nothing to do with it." You take it, it's my investment in you. ”
Hearing Carmelo say this, Snolan had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay." ”
Shakur suddenly opened his mouth and said, "This young man's name is Snowland, right?" ”
Carmelo raised an eyebrow and asked, "What?" Do you know? ”
"It's not just me who knows, but the owner of this place, Stendhal. This lad was in the limelight here two days ago. ”
Carmelo remembered, and Snorlan had told him about it, and he nodded and said, "Not bad." ”
Shakur looked around, suddenly approached and said, "Friendly reminder, be careful lately, the Dock Brotherhood suspects that your apprentice is the culprit of this wave of frequent assassinations of the Dock Brotherhood's management!" ”
"What!?" Snowland asked, shocked.
"Be quiet! You're afraid that others won't know, right? Shakur glanced at Snorlan disapprovingly.
"I hope Mr. Shakur will answer my questions." Snorlan hurriedly lowered his voice and asked.
"Did you injure two thugs who were collecting protection money and then ran away?"
"Yes." Snorlan nodded, he was at the Carmelo house because of this one who moved with Theresa and Leslie.
"Recently, there have been rumors that you are taking revenge on the Dock Brotherhood and assassinating the Dock Brotherhood higher-ups. However, the discerning person will see that it is false, these rumors are all released by a newly formed organization that rebelled against the Dock Brotherhood, but I guess the Dock Brotherhood will not let you go for the sake of its own reputation. Shakur whispered.
"It's okay, Shakur, who can hurt Snorlan with me?" Carmelo said with a smile.
Shakur was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes, there are no people in Ward Harbor who can threaten you!" It's me who is overthinking. ”
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and drank again. As for what the three of them thought in their hearts, it is unknown.
