24. A wave of unevenness rises again and again
When the three of Asa returned to Dugu City, it was the evening of the fourteenth day of their departure, and as soon as they entered the gate, a guard of the Blue Palace greeted them, and it turned out that since the tenth day of the three of them, the Blue Palace sent people to keep an eye on the city gate every day, as long as Asa they came back, they would immediately take them to the Blue Palace.

When Asa arrived at the Blue Palace, to his surprise, General Tulius, Governor Regie, and Isla were all here, and Islaon finally decided to stay in Dugu City until the end of the Portmar incident, leaving Durak, Ammar, and half of the Dawnguard soldiers with him, while the rest followed Seran, Jamal, Sonya, and Decion back to Dawn Canyon.
When Asa came in, Islaun seemed to be done with his visit, nodded to Asa and left. Asa guessed that he was here to discuss how to help the Imperial soldiers improve their fighting skills against the undead and the undead.
"Mr. Asa, where have you been these days?" General Tulius seemed to be quite concerned about Asa's whereabouts, and when he saw Asa himself, he naturally wanted to ask for clarification.
(This is my freedom, it's your stinky old man!) Despite the answer in his heart, Asa said with a proper smile on his face: "I had an agreement with Princess Hamia before, after defeating the vampires, I would hand over the Elder Scrolls to the side of the Hosgar Peak, and I can't help with the project here anyway, I think I will go to Snow City and the Hosgar Peak for a while." "Asa's words are half-true, how could Tullius and the others know that Asa had already asked the dragon to help send the Elder Scrolls over.
"Oh, I remember hearing Hamia mention it before...... That's it, I hope that next time at this important moment, you don't leave without saying hello, I know that the duties of the Dragonborn are important, but the work here is also related to the survival of Dugu City. As soon as Assa's explanation was reasonable, Tulius's straight face seemed to relax a little, and his tone softened.
"But it's not like I haven't gotten some important news for the empire this time." Since the other party didn't put on a stinky face, Asa also felt that he should reveal something to repay the other party, of course, it couldn't be gratuitous.
When Tulius looked at Asana's slightly treacherous smile, he didn't know that the other party was asking for benefits, but Tulius didn't get angry directly, but asked, "What does it have to do with it?" "Before asking the price, you must first know what kind of medicine is sold in the other party's gourd, if it is really important to the empire, some benefits Tulius will be regarded as a reward for the spies.
"It's the Storm Cloak."
"What do you want?" Tulius very simply began to ask for the price code, and from the price code offered by the other party, he could basically estimate the importance of the information to his side. It seems that Tulius automatically ignored Asa's "very important" prefix at the beginning.
"My eldest lady's Dugucheng account is done, but the house price and land price in Dugucheng are so high that they are scared to death, and even the decoration fee is several times more expensive than other places...... "After Foke-Huohu helped the eldest lady settle down, Asa had specially asked about the house price in Dugucheng, but his little heart almost jumped out of his mouth. The capital is the capital, and it looks like the house price is not several times higher than the outside, and it looks like it is embarrassed to sell it. (ps: The house price of Dugu City is 2w, my personal impression should be the most expensive in the sky, and it will cost about 20,000 yuan after the renovation of the Proud Spear Villa, which will look glamorous, and the practical area of the three floors together is not half the size of the house in the Wind Helmet City!) And the bookcases are all small, and book collectors like me have to buy the Marcus City house, which contains at least two oversized bookshelves! οΌ
Asa made a rough calculation, although he had looted a lot of gold and silver treasures during his adventures for a while, but he sold them all, and it seemed that it was only enough to buy a small house for two people in Dugu City, and it was still the kind that had no decoration configuration. Serana had previously said that she wanted to bring her mother Valerika to Dugu City, and if Asa really could only buy such a small house, even if Valerica didn't despise him, he would have no face to see his future mother-in-law.
"......" Tulius's brows immediately furrowed, but after thinking about it, he still said in a deep voice: "Okay, if your news is important enough, I can give you the Dugu City Villa that the former High King gave me for free!" It's just that I've been sleeping in DΓΌrr Castle since I arrived in Dugu City, and I haven't lived in that house, so you have to pay for the furniture, decoration, etc. out of your own pocket. β
"This is easy to do, I have always felt that it is not enough to settle down for Mr. Asa's friend to settle down to express my heartfelt gratitude, if Mr. Asa's news can satisfy you, General Tulius, I am willing to take out a part of my private treasury to help Mr. Asa solve the problem of house decoration and furniture." At this time, Elysiphus, who was a little speechless after Asa entered the door, finally seized the opportunity to join the conversation, Asa didn't understand that this was actually a reward for him to go out this time, and immediately secretly winked at Elysif to indicate that the mission was successful, and smiled in surprise on the surface: "Wow, such a reward is really beyond my expectations." Well, I'm sure you won't think it's too expensive when you hear what I'm going to say next. β
"What the hell is going on? What does Uffrick want to do? Seeing that after chattering here for a long time, it seemed that the price had finally been negotiated, and Ricky immediately urged.
"I met an old friend of Helgen outside the snowy city, and General Tulius may have the impression that it was Larov from Brookwood, and that when I was on the carriage to Helgen, Ufrik sat next to me, and he was the one sitting opposite me."
Tulius nodded to indicate that he remembered such a person, and motioned with his eyes for Asa to continue.
Of course, he didn't come alone, but he went outside the city with a lot of Storm Cloak soldiers dressed as civilians. There are not many people, but it is enough to do some preparation in advance. β
"What preparation!?" Tulius keenly grasped the point of the problem, and the brow that had been slightly relaxed was now frowning again because of a bad premonition.
"Preparations for the construction of a secret front-line position."
"Do you have a map here!?" Tulius's face changed, and he asked in a solemn tone at Foke. Of course, what he asked for was not a normal map, but a strategic map that marked all the known fortresses in Skyrim Province at the moment.
"There's a copy, please come with me!" The crowd soon arrived in a conference room, where Buddha spread out the map he found and placed it on the table.
"Where is it built?" After comparing the scale of the map with the impression in his mind, Tulius, who confirmed that the map was accurate, nodded and continued to ask.
"Here, Figoro Fortress." Assa's finger tapped the location of the Figoro Fortress in the northeast of the city, which was no longer marked on the map, and continued: "Although this place has been abandoned, it is only the above-ground part, and the underground part is still quite intact as far as I know. β
"Underground?" Tulius frowned and asked Ricky, "I don't remember too clearly, is there a big prison under this Figoro Fortress?" β
"Yes, this used to be the largest underground prison in Skyrim Province, if it was slightly remodeled...... Enough is enough! β
"Damn! Things come one after another! The matter of the Queen of the Wolfheart here has not been resolved, and there is movement again over there! Tulius slammed his fist on the table with some annoyance, and said, "Tomorrow...... No, send someone to Xueman now to inform the Governor of the Imperial Army and ask him to strengthen his vigilance! If you're sure, get rid of those guys, and if you're not sure, keep me under close surveillance! β
After speaking, he looked up at Asa again, squinted his eyes, and was about to speak, but Assa, who guessed what he wanted to say, had already replied by himself: "Don't worry, even if you don't say it, I will be responsible for Portma's affairs all the way to the end." I'll have to help you with bad news. β
It was only then that Tulius finally felt that the price he had just given was worth it. (To be continued.) )
