Chapter Twenty-Four: Sesame Oil Town
"You can think of a way, you can get out of the school!" Since Lei guessed the idea that although he was far away, he would be punished, Lei Laohu gave the answer directly.
"You knew this from the beginning?" This time it was my turn to be surprised, although it was far away.
"yes, I knew it from the beginning!"
"Then you still have to use that method, and you want me to hand over the soldiers to you?" Although it is far away, he will pretend to be an atmosphere and say.
"I'm not familiar with you, and I want to try your personality, aren't you the same?" For this, Lei Laohu did not hide it.
"Ugh! Well, we're friends now? Although he was choked from afar, he didn't expect Lei Laohu to say this thing confidently.
"Congratulations, you've passed the test!" A big smile appeared on Lei Laohu's face, this was the first time he had shown such a sincere smile since his rebirth.
Looking at Lei Laohu's smile, he smiled even though he was far away.
The two shook hands again and introduced themselves.
"Even if it is far away, it will be punished!"
"Convince people with virtue!"
This introduction also announced the beginning of their friendship......
…………………………
In the bushes that surround the town of Sesame Oil, there is a magical herb that the town's physicians use to make healing ointments and cures. The inhabitants are also adept at using medicinal herbs, and they claim the town as the healing capital.
…………………………
Although it is a town, it is actually a city, known as the healing capital, where players can learn a side job - apothecary.
Back then, the main source of income for the Iron and Blood Guild was potions.
Speaking of which, Lei Laohu's previous life was basically active in the surrounding area of Xiangyou Town.
It should be said that this place was once occupied by the Iron Blood Guild, and as a player of the Iron Blood Guild, of course, he couldn't be too far away from his guild station, so Thunder Tiger can be said to be very familiar with this place.
Of course, this so-called occupation is not that the Iron Blood Guild really laid down Sesame Oil Town, but that the Iron Blood Guild occupied the four gates of Sesame Oil Town and set up cards at the city gates to charge fees.
Every non-iron-blooded guild player who wants to enter the city must pay an entry fee of 1 gold coin, otherwise they will not be able to enter the city, and they will even be killed on the spot.
Although this kind of thing happened near the city gate, it didn't enter the city after all, so the nPc in Sesame Oil Town also turned a blind eye to this matter.
Of course, as the core player of the Iron Blood Guild, Lei Lao Tiger also knows some secrets, that is, the reason why Xiangyou Town acquiesces to the hegemony of the Iron Blood Guild is because the Iron Blood Guild has to give eighty percent of the city tax to the city lord of Xiangyou Town every month.
And Lei Laohu also knew that this so-called eighty percent was actually handed over after the iron-blooded maniac cut it.
It's just that in this life, the major guilds have not yet demarcated their respective territories, and there has not yet been a seizure of the gate to collect city fees, perhaps these guilds have already demarcated the territory, but there is no idea of occupying the city gate for the time being.
…………………………
Standing outside the west gate of Sesame Oil Town, Lei Laohu felt a feeling in his heart, this is the place where he was born at the beginning of his previous life, and it is also the place where he went offline for the last time.
Lei Laohu squatted down and silently touched the ground under his feet, and by the way, grabbed a handful of sand and put it in his backpack.
This can be regarded as a trace of his memory of his past life.
Although Yuan Bizhu looked at Lei Laohu's expression as if he was remembering something, he didn't speak, just watched quietly.
But he was very strange, he knew that Lei Laohu was here for the first time, but why did he show such an expression?
But he didn't ask too much, everyone has their own secrets, as for whether the other party is willing to say it, this is the other party's private matter, and there is no need to gossip.
After some remembrance, Lei Laohu turned around and glanced at Zhiyuan Bizhu and said, "I'm going to go to the city, and by the way, buy some troops, where are you going?" ”
"I'm still waiting for someone here!" Although Yuan Bizhu shrugged his shoulders and said.
"Then we'll see you at the South Gate in an hour."
"Okay, I'll see you at the South Gate."
With that, Thunder Tiger deposited his royal griffin in the storage point, and left the city alone.
…………………………
Bidding farewell to being punished even if it is far away, Lei Laohu went straight to the recruitment point in Sesame Oil Town and directly recruited 3 squads of marksmen.
As a result, his team is full, and the Royal Griffon can no longer fight as a class without the death of the Marksman.
After recruiting the troops, Lei Laohu followed the route he remembered and came to an ordinary house in Xiangyou Town.
Looking deeply at this gate, which had almost no change from his previous life, the expression on Lei Laohu's face was sometimes smiling, sometimes painful, and sometimes hideous......
Lei Laohu stood in front of this gate for a full 10 minutes before he sighed slightly, glanced at this gate with some reluctance, took a deep breath, and left here without looking back, heading towards the tavern in Sesame Oil Town.
He had the happiest time of his life, only in the end, he found out that everything was fake, everything was fake, and all that was left for him was heart-rending pain.
As soon as he entered the tavern, Lei Laohu was stunned, the tavern was just an intelligence distribution center, although the wine tasted good, but the price was too expensive, so he never thought that the tavern was a real place to drink.
Today, however, it was noticeably different, as the tavern was almost full of players, each holding a glass of wine, as if they knew each other, and as if they didn't.
They all sat quietly, drinking silently, no one spoke, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was a little weird.
Regarding the arrival of Lei Laohu, these people only glanced at it lightly, then turned their heads and stopped paying attention.
Lei Laohu didn't like this kind of atmosphere very much, besides, he came to this tavern for a purpose, so many people were here, and it was very inconvenient for him to do things.
But he has three years of rebirth experience, and he has never seen any big scenes (although he really hasn't seen any big scenes), he rolled his eyes and instantly thought of a solution.
I saw Lei Laohu raise his head and strode in front of the tavern owner, pretending to be very rude, and shouted loudly: "Boss, good wine!" ”
The boss smiled at Lei Laohu, and did not bring the wine up, but said in a low voice: "Thank you for your patronage, 2000 gold coins." ”
"So expensive?" Lei Laohu pretended to be surprised and shouted.
His actions attracted the attention of everyone present, and these people also seemed to be bored, so they all looked at this place with a smile on their faces.
At this time, a player not far from Lei Laohu muttered disdainfully: "Cut, another dirt bun!" ”
Although the player's voice is not loud, it is particularly harsh in this unusually quiet tavern.
The player's words also caused the other players in the tavern to burst into laughter.
Lei Lao Hu didn't seem to care about the player's ridicule at all, only to see that he then turned out a black sign and shook it reluctantly at the boss, and then asked, "Is it so expensive?" ”
As soon as the boss saw the brand in Lei Laohu's hand, his face changed, and the smile on his face became stronger, but no matter how he looked at it, there was a hint of flattery in it.
I only heard the boss say politely: "It's expensive, that price is for those dirt buns to drink, adults, you only need 10 gold coins!" ”
The shopkeeper said and pointed to the player who had just laughed at Thunder Tiger.
"The price is reasonable, give me a drink."
Nodding with satisfaction, Lei Laohu quickly took out 10 gold coins and threw them to the shopkeeper, who didn't care, but hurriedly received them in his arms.
The players who were still laughing at Lei Laohu just now couldn't laugh, who is the soil bun?
Glance.
These people spent 2,000 gold coins to drink a glass of wine that is only worth 10 gold coins, isn't this the behavior of Tubaozi?
And the 2,000 gold coins were actively asked to be spent, just to show that they had money to drink?
Because of the wine, it is sold at this price, and the taverns in any city are the same, and 2000 gold coins are not bought.
The players present had a secret hatred for the shopkeeper in their hearts, but helplessly, they couldn't do anything to the shopkeeper.
So their eyes were also on the smiling Thunder Tiger.
And these players look at Lei Laohu with a slightly different look, some are greedy, some are doubtful, and some are envious...... And so on.
We can't handle a system of nPc, can't you still do it as a player? Maybe the black sign will blow out.
Although they didn't know the properties of the brand, the thought of the role of the brand made the players' eyes red and their breathing became short......
Looking at the eyes of these players, Lei Laohu didn't know what they thought, and shook his head secretly, greed is really the original sin of everything.
"Greedy people are going to hell, but I'm sorry that your ideas can't be realized."
Lei Laohu said with a smile on his face, and then revealed the attributes of the black token.
Shang Wang Ling, a symbol of status, cannot be dropped.
…………………………
Shang Wang Ling, that is, Lei Laohu's merchant level automatically appeared in the backpack when he reached the king of Shang kings, and he only found it after entering Sesame Oil Town.
He didn't know what this thing was for, he guessed that it should be a thing to prove his identity, and he just wanted to take it out and try it on a whim.
He didn't expect that drinking in a tavern could be discounted, which he didn't expect in advance.
In fact, what Lei Lao Hu didn't know was that with this token, he could enjoy some privileges in many places, such as the City Lord's Mansion in the main city of the system, and Lei Lao Hu could directly enter with this order; For example, wine in a tavern can be drunk at a low price; For example, you don't need to pay an entrance fee to enter the city; For example, seeking the protection of hostile forces, and so on.
The system will not tell the player what privileges this thing has, and it is up to the player to find out the true value of this thing.
In fact, this is a small change made by the system quietly, and players can't hang around outside with the title of the king of merchants on their heads, so how to prove their identity? You have to rely on this item to prove your identity.
The main culprit for this change is still because of Thunder Tiger.
He didn't reveal his identity when he was in the Bailey City Business Alliance, but those nPcs knew that he was the lord of the player's first city and offered him up.
This is obviously not in line with reality, although this is a game, but you can't always make nPcs omniscient, right?
Otherwise, every nPC can clearly know the identity of the player, isn't it easy to expose the true situation of the player?
What other Scouting techniques do players learn? Directly bring a low-level intelligent nPc, as long as he needs someone's information, just ask.
