Chapter 099. The arrival of Heloise
As a senior accountant of the Senge Chamber of Commerce, Greenton has been serving one of the strongest chambers of commerce in Grey Mist City for twenty years, which seems to be doomed when he entered the Senge Chamber of Commerce at the age of twelve. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
This is actually not a big deal, the Senge Chamber of Commerce is an old nobleman in Gray Mist City, the industry of the Senge family, as a commoner, he can rely on this big tree, although he has been tired and busy for many years, but he also really enjoys the benefits from the Senge Chamber of Commerce.
He lives in the inner city of Grey Mist, a safe, clean, and enjoyable city. Immune to the chaos of the Outer Harbor District, or disturbed by the noise of the Outer Harbor District, an area inhabited only by nobles, he lived in a separate compound with his family.
The group of gentlemen around him nodded to him in friendly respect, and although Greenton was not a gentleman, nor was he a wealthy landowner or businessman, he belonged to the senior accountant of the Senge Chamber of Commerce.
This has become a status symbol of sorts, and as long as the Senge Chamber of Commerce does not decline, then he can always enjoy this respectable and jealous treatment.
But he stood on the dock of Cape Town, with a little hesitation on his face, and slowly clenched his hands, and his expression was even more helpless. He can understand why he is valued by the Senge Chamber of Commerce, because for a large reason, it is valued by the next generation of heirs of the Senge family.
There are many senior accountants in the Senge Chamber of Commerce, but very few can live in the inner city. Greenton was one of them, but he was now a little apprehensive about whether he had done something wrong.
There were footsteps behind him, and a figure wearing an ordinary linen costume and a linen hood on his head sat over, looking small, and the clothes were also draped on his body, looking incongruous, but he made Greenton hurry over and bend down slightly, and said softly: "What do you command?" ”
Under that hood, his delicate white chin was also exposed, and he asked with a little regret, "Mr. Greenton, hasn't Mr. Levi come here yet?" ”
"They are said to have encountered some robbers."
With a slight smack, Glinton also frowned a little embarrassed, he subconsciously turned his head to look at the hills not far away, and he could see many figures walking on it as far as his eyes could see.
Of course, he knew that the so-called Mr. Levi was leading the troops to fight against the ferocious Ketuf River bandits, but considering the psychological state of the eldest lady behind him, he also coughed lightly and comforted: "Don't worry, Mr. Levi is a warrior after all." ”
"Yes, he is indeed a warrior!"
The white chin under the linen hood was also slightly pointed, and the whole person also agreed with Greenton's words, and slowly stretched out his hand in the linen robe, which was also a white and lovely little hand, and pulled the hood on his head, and a delicate and beautiful face appeared on the dock of the ruins of this cape town.
She is the pearl of the Senge family, the eldest lady of the Senge Chamber of Commerce, and Heloise, who also has some unrealistic reverence for freedom, and was rescued by Levi on the hill outside Baal Town before.
The sea breeze gently blew the sideburns in her ears, Heloise reached out to her ear, looked at the simple temporary fortress in front of her with a pair of watery eyes, and seemed to bite her lower lip excitedly, turned her head to Glinton behind her and asked, "Is that a military fortress that was built?" ”
"Yes, Miss Heloise, that's the fortress that Mr. Levi built."
With an embarrassed look on his face, he looked at the obviously rudimentary civil engineering building in front of him, and shook his head helplessly, he didn't dare to refute the words of the eldest lady, but he was also beating the drum in fear.
Swallowing softly, he looked at the eldest lady next to him who seemed to be looking at the environment very strangely, staring at the surrounding situation with a pair of big eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Will I let Master Charles know, if I know, everything for me will be over." ”
Young Master Charles was furious with Miss Heloise's willfulness, especially after returning to Grey Mist from Baal, and lodged a serious protest with the family council because of this.
After all, the reverence of the eldest lady is really too unrealistic, and Glinton, as a senior accountant, was sent to teach Heloise about financial management, but in the end, he took the eldest lady to see her idol, Levi who came to Cape Town.
He is really helpless now, why would he risk being expelled from the Senge Chamber of Commerce, and the danger of encountering aliens or pirates, to accompany this eldest lady to really come to Cape Town, to this place that is still in ruins.
Glynton looked at the ruins of Cape Town in front of him, he used to have a certain impression of this place, but with the complete abandonment of the high-level of Grey Mist City a few years ago, this place has become a forgotten place, and the branches that the Senge Chamber of Commerce originally established here have all been withdrawn.
The current Cape Town, instead of connecting with the past, should be directly pushed away and re-examined, because this is already a new area.
The former Cape Town has long since been reduced to ruins, but in front of it is a simple and almost ugly civil fortress, and the construction is extremely sloppy, in Grinton's eyes, it is simply a group of civilians with no experience in building it.
The city wall is only more than four meters high, and even a clever person can climb up with a low appearance, and it can't stop many enemy attacks at all in times of war.
As for the rudimentary civil fort that had been routed by the defenders, it was undoubtedly ridiculous in the eyes of Greenton, a veteran accountant who had sailed with ocean-going merchant ships and had seen a great deal of things.
Because he also clearly saw that most of the defenders who stayed here were armed with dwarven muskets, and a small number were armed with scimitars produced in Gray Mist City, not that he expressed disdain for this group of people, because it was true that the shortcomings of dwarven muskets were too great.
Yes, the Dwarven Musket is indeed very powerful, but the extremely slow firing frequency, unsuitable weight, and extremely poor accuracy make any army commander who has purchased a Dwarven Musket spurn this weapon with disdain.
Even the group of craftsmen of the dwarven clan mostly use battle axes and war hammers, and most of the dwarven muskets are used to make up for the shortcomings of their five short statures, and some kind of auxiliary weapon specially developed and equipped is not regarded as a trump card among the dwarves at all.
It is now common knowledge among all that the dwarven musket is always the strongest within ten meters, and even the best chain mail cannot defend against the power of that shot.
But just after this shot, the dwarven musket is a useless waste, even if it is used as a war hammer, it will feel bloated and inflexible, it is simply a special development for the dwarves, a chicken auxiliary weapon, without any great use!
"Captain Levi is back!"
However, just as Greenton was pondering, on the city wall in front of him, a sentry in charge of the garrison waved his hand downward, and with the exertion of several sailors guarding the city gate, the two simple log gates were slowly opened, and burly figures also entered.
Naturally, the leader was Levi, and his eyes had instantly spotted the merchant ships at the dock, as well as Clinton who was standing in place, and his eyes had already seen Heloise who was full of surprises, and said loudly with a smile: "I encountered some small troubles, but fortunately they have been solved." ”
Levi walked over quickly, looked at the senior accountant Greenton, who he had just met a few days ago, nodded slightly to express his respect, and said, "Mr. Greenton, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
At the same time, Levi also walked a few quick steps, came to Heloise, reached out gracefully in front of her delicate face with a slight flush, and bent down like a true gentleman and whispered, "It is an honor to meet you here, Miss Heloise." ”
