Chapter 187: The leader who works overtime
"We'll talk about that later! Let's hurry up and take a hot shower and have a hearty meal. Claudia, who said this, walked with a little jump, "And I've long missed the comfy big bed in the hotel." ”
Klaimatis looked at himself helplessly and said, "Yes! Be! If you want to find a good place, give me less to say and leave, or be careful that you can't find an empty room in the hotel. ”
"Wait for me on the docks for a while! I went to say goodbye to Mr. Lamond. But Barrett clearly wasn't going to let someone get his wish that easily. Because he doesn't want his reputation to be affected by the small things in etiquette.
Although I don't know if I will cooperate with Captain Jody Lamond in the future, I can be considered to be in the same force and not look down. Barrett didn't want to be gossiped behind his back because of a momentary negligence. That would be more than worth the loss if it affected the perception of the rest of Boreham's territory.
In fact, Captain Jody Lamond himself, Barrett, was not worried about anything. After all, the human spirit who can climb to this position will not offend people easily. But the seafarers on the deck who have big mouths after drinking are a place where messages spread! You can't ignore this.
As for Claudia's concerns about housing and food, Barrett was not prepared to tease her on purpose, as Claymatis was. You must know that the stable operation of the port of Morbihan has been some years. The supply and demand for hotels here have also become balanced. Unless there are some special circumstances, it is not so easy to have the problem of finding a room.
What's more, the players of the 'Bloodstained Gray Flower' mercenary group are now choosing high-end properties. Although the number of such rooms is small, the demand is often less. So the situation where Klammatis deliberately scares Claudia usually does not occur.
After a brief greeting with Captain Jody Lamond on the docks, completing the basic etiquette. Barrett then let go of all the burdens in his heart and walked to his companions, who had been waiting along the shore for a short time.
"You've got a lot to do with Barrett." See Barrett approaching. Claudia puffed out her cheeks to the point that she didn't know if she was really crippled by Klamatis, or if she was deliberately making a fuss because she thought it was funny.
For the performance of his companions, Barrett is naturally happy to accompany each other to act: "No matter what happens, there must be a beginning and an end." This is not only a guarantee of success, but also an attitude towards life. ”
"That's it! All right! You've always had a point, now let's hurry to find a place to stay. After so much time at sea, I always felt slimy. Claudia turned around and continued to grumble.
Bathing on an ocean-going sailboat is a luxury. Although Clematis was able to create fresh water with spells. But it's a pain to fill a bathtub with just a large glass at a time - fortunately, Rieli's magic tricks can easily ensure the physical plot of the players, but the psychological impact of not taking a shower for a long time will still make the players feel awkward in one way or another.
The long sea voyage still had a toll on players returning to land. Barrett, who had always been on time, rarely slept until the three poles of Hiyama, and then got up from the bed. Washed and dressed, he did not bother his companions: 'Since we said that we would rest for two days, let them relax completely.' I'll just take care of this alone. ’
Barrett was about to walk straight through the bustling bar on the first floor of the hotel. At this time, the waiter at the front desk on the first floor immediately asked, "Does Mr. need to provide breakfast?" Where are you going? Then your companions will rise up and ask, and we will tell you the truth. If you are travelling far away, do you need to arrange transportation? By the way, 2 to 4 p.m. is room service time, so if you are unable to make it back in time, please take your valuables with you in advance. to prevent unnecessary disputes. ”
If Barrett hadn't paid for the two-day room early, the reddish-brown haired girl in front of him would have continued to ask about check-out and renewals - from that point of view alone. The business standard of this hotel is quite good.
Barrett, who had stopped, looked back at the girl with the two cute bunny front teeth, and said, "If my companion asks, just say I'm going to Poitu on an errand." They'll understand what I'm going to do. By the way, I have all the previous items in the house, so you can clean them with confidence. If it's early, just give me two random things! As long as the taste is not too heavy, I need to meet later. ”
"Yes sir, I'll handle it for you right away. So is the meal fee deducted from the previous advance payment? The lovely little girls asked with a smile on their faces.
Barrett, who casually found a table near the bar and sat down, nodded, "Just buckle it from there." ”
Soon the curtain to the back kitchen was opened, and another hostess with pigtails brought a plate to the table in front of Barrett. Oatmeal cooked with milk. Poche's grilled sausages and whole wheat bread with basil cheese. It's not a lot of money, but it's good value for money - and this shows that the hotel is genuinely thinking about the travelers here, when Barrett's ambiguous choices are made. didn't serve a bunch of expensive high-end food to treat him as Kaizizai. The so-called word-of-mouth and good reputation are built up bit by bit from the daily trivialities.
Filling his stomach, he pushed away the swinging dream and stepped out of the hotel, and then immediately followed the bluestone paved road to the small square in the harbor. I saw a black wooden sign hanging from an iron chain on a tall wooden pole swinging in the wind - the four-wheeled carriage depicted on the wooden sign was even more vivid.
Finely crafted business carriages await their employers, and although they are not flashy or extravagant, the dark black paint and the crystal-clear wax-like coating on the paint give people a restrained sense of luxury.
At the other end of the square, there was the same vehicle hearing point, except that the sign there and the flatbed convertible parked below it were pulled by horses. Together, this combination of high and low vehicles forms the main business transportation system in Boreham's territory.
Came to the driver in the front row. Barrett tossed him a golden coin: "Please take me to the Beversstock family's residence." ”
As the whip sounded, Barrett, who was sitting on the upholstered interior of the carriage, immediately felt the scenery outside the glass window running backwards vigorously. And the buffer reeds forged by the dwarves kept the carriage moving. The gnomes' handmade ball bearings make it walk more smoothly and quietly.
With its comfortable interior, this business carriage was highly regarded by the vast majority of the chambers of commerce in Boreham. The lords of the time also used this carriage to make a taxi business on the route from the pier to the city of Poitou - it must be said that it was a much more expensive form of public transport than the usual flatbed horse-drawn carriage (which was originally a flatbed ox cart). From the first day of operation, it has been very popular with merchants.
After all, not all caravans have a stronghold in Boreham like the large chambers of commerce. At the same time, the long sea voyage was inexpensive, but it was not so easy to carry such items as horse-drawn carriages on and off in a sailboat - this was not a modern roll-over ship before the crossing.
In this way, many times the owners of those caravans have to go with their caravans aggrieved. Most of the mercenaries and adventurers from the lower ranks had no sense of hygiene. Traveling with them can sometimes be a torment for businessmen who think they have a certain status.
But now they have a much more comfortable option, and more importantly, it sets them apart from the mud legs they see as dirt legs. In their eyes, it was a way to emphasize to the rest of the caravan that they were employers - a group of proud and inferior people.
However, thanks to the existence of this group, these taxi shops affiliated with the Boreham family have continued to make profits since they opened. Of course, the more important thing is the excellent business environment and important transit value, so that there is no shortage of businessmen from the south to the north. Otherwise, the carriage industry, which is in short supply of goods, will only be able to dry the net for a day or two, how can it be as prosperous as it is now.
The Foystock family, with whom Bey had several previous contacts, had a significant position in Boreham's territory. It stands to reason that with Barrett's current status, it is best to make an appointment in advance for a visit. On the other hand, the Beverstock family's stronghold is also the public temple of the Church of the Dragon God of Good' in Boreham's territory. Therefore, Barrett, who came to the door for purposes related to church affairs, naturally chose to use another channel.
The road from the port to the city of Poitou is very wide, but even the road is moving non-stop. It would take about 1 hour to get into the city at the speed of a horse-drawn carriage. At this time, Barrett had no choice but to close his eyes and recuperate, so as to recuperate and deal with the troubles that needed to be dealt with next.
With Dada's horses' hooves, the straight trees on both sides of the road were crossed one by one. Even though it was autumn, the leaves on the trees still looked so green and lush - like a supernova, blooming with the last splendor before it withered. Compared to the Seven Cities Alliance, which has completely changed into autumn clothes, the Boreham Collar looks more like it is torn between summer and autumn.
And the constant alternation of shadows and the sun made Barrett, who was sitting in the carriage, feel a lazy charm drilling out of his bones—and after only a few moments, his breathing became gentle. Then Mingming just got up and fell asleep again not long after.
"Sir! Mr! Wake up, please wake up. Your destination has arrived. "In the midst of that hazy dream. When Barrett suddenly heard the voice, he immediately remembered that he was still in the commercial carriage. Immediately opening his eyes, he glanced through the window at the driver who was standing outside knocking on the door—the other man was clearly very well-behaved, calling outside without permission. And did not make such a misleading move as entering the carriage.
And Barrett is subconscious

PS: Wait to make up for it. Thank you for the great commuter pass of the "Prophet Chariot". At the same time, I would like to thank the two "lazy Ying Long" and "Altar Fat Biao" for their great rewards.
