Chapter 011. Not a secret secret

Stretched out his finger and knocked on the table, old Moulton's face was also full of pride and self-satisfaction, he seemed to be a master in terms of wine-making technology, he reached out and brushed his gray sideburns with some reserve, and with the other hand, he also felt a pipe on the table and put it in the corner of his mouth, and said with a soft smile: "Even the group of dwarves in the inner harbor of Gray Mist City don't come to my tavern every day to buy goods?" They drank the ale as if we were drinking water, and I felt like I was spoiling my wine. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Dwarves? Those guys were all born drunks, and they were still short-tempered, and if it weren't for their good metallurgical skills, they would have been kicked into the sea by the nobles of Grey Mist City. ”

Shrugging his shoulders slightly, Levi drank the ale in front of him gently, but he also had an impression of the dwarves mentioned by Old Moulton. However, Levi's impression of them was not good, especially after the news that there was a flintlock pistol on his ship was leaked by the Rotten Algae Gang, and there were dwarves who came to check whether it was the musket lost by the dwarves. This was an absolute humiliation for Levi, and thanks to the elder Morton's maneuvering around, Levi's flintlock pistol was indeed not the short-barreled musket commonly used by the dwarves, which prevented the conflict between the two sides from escalating and almost turning into bloodshed.

Thinking about the arrogant and arrogant appearance of the four or five dwarves at that time, Levi couldn't help but roll his eyes to the side, if someone said to him that this group of dwarves was honest and honest guys, he would have to take him to see what kind of character this group of drunks was. You must know that the wanderers who often live in closed mines or in dark and narrow spaces such as blacksmiths, and who were wiped out two hundred years ago, are definitely unhealthy mental illnesses!

"Be happy, you will find that in addition to being rude and short-tempered, those dwarves generally like to get drunk, but they are actually quite honest."

Old Morton smiled slightly, gently took his pipe in his mouth, and reached out into the box next to him and took out a small golden stick engraved with mysterious carvings. Seeing Levi's somewhat strange appearance, the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more brilliant, just like showing off his toy, he gently put the side of the golden stick engraved with mysterious carvings in the pipe, and a faint burning breath appeared immediately, the tobacco in the pipe had been ignited, and he inhaled the mellow smoke, and at the same time shrugged his shoulders and smiled at Levi: "The magic carving skills of the dwarves are still very good, and this mysterious skill is their secret." ”

"Magic carving? Isn't this stuff just there... Does it exist only in legends? ”

Levi's hand holding the wooden wine glass couldn't help but shake slightly, and his knuckles were a little white from his exertion. The little golden stick seemed to be made of gold, and shimmered in a charming golden color under the light of the candle next to it, and the strands of fine and mysterious carvings were engraved on it, which looked extremely elegant and full of mystery. But it wasn't this that shocked Levi, because in his pocket, in the velvet money bag, there were also five gold items that resembled a large number of carvings!

But the excellent psychological quality brought by his previous life still made Li Wei forcibly calm down in his heart. He frowned slightly and looked at the golden stick with mysterious carvings, subconsciously licked his lips, raised his head and asked softly to Old Moultun, "Could it be that this thing is a legendary magic item?" After a pause, he couldn't help but exclaim: "Legend has it that magic items have mysterious magical powers, and even those powerful magic items can even separate the waves. ”

"Hahaha, little Levi, your legend is in my hands."

Old Morton laughed, gently smoked his pipe, enjoyed the mellow smell of fine tobacco, and at the same time handed the carved golden stick in his hand to Levi, leaned back on the back of the chair indifferently, and smiled at him: "But this is not a magic item, this kind of magic carving that can only light cigarettes is not uncommon in the circle of nobles, and in fact, in our Gray Mist City, there are mysterious magicians." ”

"It's really shocking."

Slowly swallowing and foaming, Levi's eyes also had a little frightened look, and subconsciously reached out to take the golden stick handed over by Old Moulton, and looked down at the countless fine carvings carved out on it, a faint and almost inscrutable mysterious streamer was emerging in the carvings, and his chest couldn't help but rise and fall slowly, and he looked at Old Morton with wide eyes and said: "Is this the legendary mysterious magic that can reach the essence of the world?" ”

"No, no, no, it's not exactly magic, it's just a little bit of craftsmanship left over by that group of dwarves after the destruction of the country."

Gently taking a sip of wine, old Morton put down the wooden wine glass that had been empty in his hand, waved his hand and refused the waiter at the bar next to him to want to continue to add, just looked at Levi's shocked appearance, touched his neat hair with a little reserve, swallowed the smoke with a faint sweet smell in his pipe, and said slowly: "Don't dwell on this kind of problem, these are too far away from us, aren't they?" After a slight pause, he leaned forward on the back of his chair, looked at Levi and smiled, "If you have time, why don't you go to the farm in Samar City and help me buy some fine hops." ”

As the owner of a large tavern, the elder Morton apparently also had his own cellar and winery, and Levi knew that. However, he swallowed slowly and spit, diverted his mind from this small mysterious golden stick, and did not hesitate to put this little thing back in front of Old Morton, suppressed the shock on his face a little, and nodded lightly: "I will go inland the day after tomorrow, and then it will be enough to go back and forth for a day." ”

Levi leaned back slightly, as comfortably as old Morton on the other side leaned back in his chair, and reached out to take a sip of his wine glass. His mind was a little confused now, and the money bag made of velvet in his pocket seemed to weigh thousands of pounds, and he couldn't help but want to open it here to see what the golden thing was inside. In fact, when he saw this golden color on the ship, he was already a little panicked in his heart.

The world's money system is entirely based on the silver standard, and large quantities of silver are made into large silver coins and small silver coins, which are used as currency in daily circulation. Even those nobles and big merchants used higher grade silver horns when they traded large sums of money, and this kind of silver object, which is said to be rectangular, is only a measure of high-level transactions, and a small captain like Levi who can't even save a lot of big silver coins is only heard.

But the silver standard did not make him feel frightened, and what really unsettled him was the little golden stick of old Morton, and the object in the shape of five gold coins in his pocket. He only now realized that after coming to this world, he didn't even find the precious gold in his previous life, and even the words about gold in this world only exist in legends and myths, and even things that are comparable to the mysterious magicians and magical items!

"Looks like you're a little absent-minded?"

Old Morton looked at Levi as if he was contemplating something, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, for this young man he had always cared for very much, he also had the feelings of a kind old man. Gently holding the pipe in his mouth, old Morton sat up straight, thought for a little in his head, and asked Levi, "What bothers you?" If you don't mind, you can talk to me as an older person, at least I have more experience than a young person. ”

Suddenly coming back to his senses, Levi's thoughts instantly returned to the small table, and he subconsciously picked up the cup of malt wine and gently sipped it in his mouth, and his face returned to normal. The mysterious gold coin in the velvet money bag is definitely not an ordinary thing, and the thought of wanting to take it out and show it to old Morton can't help but stop, this kind of gold coin mixed with mysterious magic items he must not let outsiders know, and even if old Morton treats him like a son, but for his own caution, he still shrugged his shoulders and said softly: "Oh, it's nothing, it's just that after I came back, I found that there were traces of thieves in the Ketuf River in the Rotten Algae Gang." ”
