Chapter 133: Trouble Comes to the Door

"Look how beautiful this is! 6000 gold coins, where do you go to buy this texture scarf in the Western Continent? The Kimberly store manager said and shook the bend of the spring in his hand again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info changes color in the light cast from the roof, like milk and mercury, and the rainbow glow has a bit of a cloudy smell.

"The original maker of this scarf, I'm afraid it wasn't for sale......" Barrett, who saw this scene, naturally had this idea in his heart. Even the most elegant warlocks in the Eastern Continent would not take the trouble to make such a strange thing—unless it was customized or given to someone special.

"This won't be a 'swag' in the Eastern Continent, right? Don't let anyone call your door and ask for trouble in the future! Now that he has found a reason to lower the price, Barrett will naturally not be polite.

"'Stolen goods'? How can it be! We all buy from regular maritime merchants. The Kimberley manager immediately denied it - even if the conditions he had long been accustomed to.

'This guy doesn't get asked about that very often, does he?' Barrett's mind immediately became suspicious. After all, in the Western Continent, even if it is an open store, it is indispensable to take over all kinds of items from unknown origins behind the scenes. It's just that usually they will reinvent which type of product they have - but just take it out and sell it.

Immediately before Barrett could speak, the Kimberly store manager began to explain again: "Are you talking about the trouble in the Eastern Continent?" Then I can't guarantee it, who knows how many hands this thing has turned before. But even if there's a problem we don't know about? Do you think that kind of trouble will come to you across the vast sea? ”

"But after all, there is a possibility. You don't want me to be completely non-existent, do you? Barrett still pressed back.

In the face of this difficult opponent, the face of the Kimberly store manager was also very ugly: "No matter what, you add a little more." ”

There are many customers who know the goods and bargain for a lot of customers. But there are not many that know the goods and love to bargain. If it was in the past, the Kimberly store manager really didn't want to deal with it - but Barrett was a customer with a large amount of purchase funds after all, and he purchased unsalable goods that had been pressed for too long. In a hurry, he had to be patient.

"More? What about 7100? Otherwise, 7200 ......" Barrett squinted, his expression more teasing than inquiring.

Immediately afterwards, the Kimberly store manager finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Absolutely don't think about less than 7600 gold coins!" ”

"7600 is 7600. You'll have to get a box that deserves it, though. Barrett also understood that it was time to accept it. If the store doesn't sell it, the efforts just now will be a chicken and an egg.

'It's finally over! The Kimberly manager let out a long sigh, but God only knows if this guy is doing what he seems to be - maybe someone is secretly having fun in his heart because he has sold the money-taking pressing box!

After spending tens of thousands of dollars in a short period of time, Barrett quickly completed the procurement work and returned to the hotel. After a while, he couldn't find anything else, and while savoring the food of this southern metropolis, he began to wait for the signing of the cooperation agreement.

Barrett, who was traveling with the team, could not have taken on a mission as a mercenary or an adventurer at such a time, and if he missed the returning ship, he would be in wax. And the previous large purchases made his wealth exposed.

While the store that sells high-end curiosities should keep the customer's information strictly confidential, human involvement is never completely foolproof - even if the store manager is tight-lipped, but not necessarily the hired guys.

Maybe Barrett is now a well-known fat sheep in the black market of this port. Although large organizations related to the government and conglomerates are impossible to do because of Barrett's identity. But those who think very highly of themselves are lone wanderers or cross the river dragon, not necessarily.

Of course, with Barrett's current strength, he may not be afraid of them - even if those guys dig a trap, with the help of the two abilities of 'flying' and 'free', it is no longer easy to effectively restrain him.

Although it is unlikely that he will suffer, Barrett is unwilling to cause unnecessary trouble. Because put it right

There are a number of forces that have signed an agreement between Bolim and the Merchant Republic of Tutkel. They have already paid such a big price before, and it is absolutely possible to take advantage of this kind of thing to take advantage of the situation. If it really affects the signing of the agreement between the two forces, the little income earned by Barrett will not outweigh the losses at all!

As negotiations progressed, violence soon erupted in Wilbos, the port where Boreham's fleet docked. The city guards began to investigate and punish the troublemakers everywhere, but unfortunately not many of them were caught - after all, in this materialistic city, as long as you can afford to pay for the outlaws, it is as much as you want.

In order to prevent involvement in such violence, and to give the opposing forces an excuse to attack Boreham Territory - all members of the fleet in Wilbos Harbour were forbidden to leave the three hotels or Bolim Merchant Station, which they had previously owned, 'Red Flame Rose', 'Mermaid's House', and 'Pearl Tears'. Otherwise, they will ambush the sailors who are cruising outside, and don't make it too easy.

"Those damn ground rats, if you can't deal with them head-on, you only dare to have a net behind your back." A scarred sailor poured a glass into his mouth as he spoke. Although there is wine, meat and entertainment in the tavern, the rare time to go ashore to recuperate and not be able to go out for a walk is really depressing.

And the naval officer on the side slapped him on the head: "Didn't the captain say that they have covered all the expenses of these days?" You know, playing here used to cost you your own money, and you can't say less about the money bag? ”

Then the fierce sailor, who had just complained, lowered his head and said no more. But as he walked down the stairs, Barrett carefully noticed that the sailor did not look away, but suppressed all his dissatisfaction in his heart: 'There is another time bomb, and although it does not look like it will blow up his own people, it is a trouble after all. Wait a moment for the pastor to explain! ’

The chaplains of the ships often choose the same mainstream beliefs as the seamen, in order to give the seafarers a person to talk to at such times, and to give those pent-up emotions a catharsis. Prevent any extreme events due to the accumulation of emotions.

But at this moment, "Bang! With a bang, the door to the tavern was pushed open. Immediately afterwards, the tavern guy who had been guarding the door was thrown into the lobby - as he was thrown onto the plank and turned into a rolling gourd, Barrett, who had not yet walked down the stairs, frowned: "It seems that the guys behind it can't help it after all." But I didn't really think they were so bold before. ’

"Why didn't the 'Red Flame Rose' open? Isn't there someone having a good time here? You kid is deliberately teasing me! Or do you think I can't afford it? A man who barged in from outside the hotel door said as he chewed on his cheeks. The fleshy cheeks and shiny head don't make a good impression at first glance.

The three hotels of the Boreham fleet, 'Red Flame Rose', 'Mermaid's House' and 'Pearl Tears', as well as their hotel on the first floor. The well-known stores in Wilbos Port belong to the first tier, although their prices are much higher than their peers. But there will still be sailors who come to enjoy themselves on a diet.

However, there are inevitable reasons why the Boreham fleet chose to buy them instead of other shops - on the one hand, to give the sailors of the fleet just the right treatment, and on the other hand, because such shops are relatively luxuries, and it is not difficult for those seamen to find cheap substitutes after they can't go. So it's unlikely that discontent will accumulate.

So even the first day of the most trouble-making day was calm, but now there is such a thing - Barrett has every reason to think that someone has planned to make trouble. However, how to deal with this situation at the moment is not easy to handle.

After all, the other party won the banner because of the dissatisfaction caused by the tavern being chartered, and if the sailors were allowed to clash with them at this time, it was likely to cause dissatisfaction among the local people under the propaganda and instigation of well-intentioned people. This is extremely detrimental to the actions of the fleet this time.

Of course, it wasn't just Barrett who understood this, but the naval officers in the room also understood. They immediately reached out and pressed down on the eager sailors around them, preventing them from making impulsive mistakes that would affect the overall situation.

Just then, from the back hall of the hotel burst out a stout cook the size of a wine barrel and a ham fit in her arm—a turban, she crossed the lobby at a speed very different from her own size, and then smashed a pan in the face of the troublemaker who claimed to be 'Cracked Tooth Erford'.

It is different from those strong people who go out and venture out to make a name for themselves, and are rumored to have nicknames. These violent people who beg for a living in the city will always give themselves a living name or a funny nickname - the most important thing is to be remembered the first time they hear it.

However, no matter how many people knew about the reputation of 'Splittooth Erfort' before! From this day onwards, he's going to change his name to 'Toothless Fort' - the pan not only broke the bridge of Cracktooth's nose, but also embedded a few broken teeth in the ground. The raw material for the broken tooth naturally came from a troublemaker who provided it involuntarily.

"Get out! The old lady asked you to get out today, did you hear? If you dare to come back tomorrow, you will only be greeted with pots and knives. The aunt, whose waist was thicker than Barrett, who was close to a half-giant, roared at the top of her broken gong.

How could the 'Red Flame Rose' do this to the top hotels in Wilbers Harbour without its own security measures? Obviously, the big chef just now is one of their important thugs. And dealing with the so-called 'cracked tooth Erfu' use of her is already more than enough.

And after the blatant beating, the cook even grabbed the troublemaker who was now missing teeth and threw him directly into the street. Then hang the pan back to the waistband of his pants, and don't forget to kick it a few times hard and kick it far away. I don't care about the consequences of beating people in the street.

Originally, this kind of tavern that could be quite famous, how could it not have its own relationship in black and white? With such a network of relationships, such a small thing as teaching troublemakers a lesson. Naturally, the big thing will be turned into a small one -- if the 'Cracked Tooth Erfu' goes to the city defense army to complain, he will only be beaten more violently at this time.

"Problem four is solved. But what if the other side instigates a troublemaker who exceeds the upper limit of the 'Red Flame Rose''s force? At this time, a lieutenant who was watching the farce outside the door finally couldn't help but ask.

And Barrett walked to the other party's side: "As long as there are locals with a little strength, which one has no power behind it?" The merchant republic of Tutkel would not allow them to mess around, and if they could not do that, then there would be no need for that agreement. ”

If it weren't for this, why would the black hand behind the scenes come up with such a young gangster to make trouble. As for the cross-river dragons from other places, it is not for nothing, but in this matter, they want their actions to arouse the antipathy of the locals towards Boreham. Obviously, it is not realistic, and the regional thinking is still very serious in this period.

Just now, the other party could only bet that the sailors who had drunk too much alcohol couldn't help but do it - as long as they were out of the cook's launch, their follow-up plan could be implemented. It's just that these people underestimated the military discipline of Boreham's leaders and the quality of the grassroots commanders. In the end, it didn't add too much trouble to these fleet members.

As the farce passed, the opponents, who could no longer find a suitable candidate, did not wake up and harass the tavern again. However, it seems that the conflict in the harbor has also become more and more intense, and while the city guards are busy with all fours, it is inevitable that they will complain about the plans of their superiors. However, the impact of this complaint was not great, and soon they were too busy to complain.

On the contrary, it was not long before the three hotels and the Bolim trading post were protected by troops from the Tutkel Commercial Republic. The location of these initiators has instead become a haven of calm and calm. It's just that no one can give a definite figure on how long the storm will last.

But it is clear to all that once the agreement is successfully signed. Then the struggle that needs to be faced will be changed to a new way -- but the battlefield will be similarly shifted at that time. And there is also the possibility that the two sides will fight head-to-face. (To be continued.) )
