The lord lived in a fort on the west side of Hiskama, and in the city next to the barren land, the lord lived not as comfortable as the lord's mansion in other cities, but more like a military garrison.

Hatsu and Mann were led by the soldiers into the fortress, which was lined with torches, but even then the corridors were a little dark. It wasn't until they entered a hall that the surroundings lit up, and a man was sitting on a chair in the hall waiting for them.

When they entered the city of Hiskama, the soldiers who were with Mann and Hatsu had already informed the wolves of the matter, and the lord of the city, after learning what had happened, asked to see them, and he had something to talk to them about.

The Soldier brought the two men in and bowed out of the hall, giving Mann a chance to observe the people in the hall. The lord looked to be about thirty years old, but the beard on his chin and a somewhat emaciated face made him look much older, but he was very tall and burly.

Contrary to Mann's impression, the lord of the hall was wearing armor and even a sword at his waist. This didn't look like a city lord at all, more like a general.

"Welcome to your friends from afar. ”

The city lord didn't care that Mann secretly looked at him, and said with open hands, his voice was thick and powerful, like the sound of a frontier war drum.

"My name is Hiscama and I am the lord of this city. ”

Mann froze, Hiskama, the name is the same as the name of the city.

As if to see through Mann's thoughts, Hiscama, who was sitting in his seat, smiled softly.

"I understand your doubts, child, my name is indeed the same as the name of this city, or my family has been named the same as this city for generations. For my ancestors swore to the king of the kingdom hundreds of years ago that they would guard this city for generations and give our lives. That's why my family was given the name of the city, and we've been stationed here for a long time, never leaving. ”

It is not an exaggeration to call Mann a child at hiscama's age, and he is estimated to be almost as old as Mann's father.

Hearing this, Mann was stunned for a moment, wouldn't he be able to go anywhere if he had been here for generations, if it were him, he would never have agreed to such a vow, and it was too boring to stay in one place and live his life.

Hiscama had already guessed what he was thinking when he looked at Mann's expression, and continued to laugh.

"You're younger than I thought you were, you're adventurous, and I've never thought of traveling far across the continent when I was your age. ”

"Of course. Mann grinned, he had a good impression of the city lord.

After chatting with Mann, Hiscama looked at Hatsu beside Mann again, he seemed to notice that Hatsu's body was different from ordinary people, and after thinking about it for a while, he said.

"You're the wolf-killing adventurer. ”

Chu didn't speak, just nodded silently.

"Once again, I thank you for my soldiers, you saved their lives, and their families will be grateful to you. ”

Hiscama slowly put his right hand on his chest and bent down a little.

After speaking, he raised his body and looked at Xiang Chu with an undisguised look of praise in his eyes: "You are a beautiful and powerful person, if I had children, I might propose a marriage contract to you for him." ”

"I'm sorry. When she first opened her mouth, she would imitate the shape of her mouth when talking to anyone other than Mann.

"If that's the case, I'll have to refuse. ”

"Haha, that's a pity. Hiscama laughed heartily, she was a powerful person at first, but at least for now, she didn't have the strange temper of those people.

This made Hiscama a little glad, at least it would make him better able to make his request later.

Yes, he saw the two of them for a purpose, and he was ashamed that he couldn't meet them with simple gratitude, but it was indeed an extraordinary time.

After the small talk, he was ready to get down to business.

"Listen to my soldiers, you two are merchants from the east, aren't you?" Hiscama said to Mann and Hatsu.

"Yes. Mann's eyes lit up, and he knew it was a good time to sell his wares.

"We've heard you're short of supplies, so we've brought some food. ”

"We are in a remote location, and the kingdom's supplies are really not timely. Hiscama nodded, not denying Mann's words, food was indeed what they needed.

"I wonder how much food you brought?"

Saying this, Mann's face turned red and scratched his head, he was only going to sell to the quartermaster of the city, but he didn't expect to meet the city lord directly.

On such occasions, the cargo of his carriage was indeed somewhat inconspicuous.

"Hey, hey. Mann smiled awkwardly, held out a finger and said, "That's what we brought with us." ”

"Huh?" Hiscama was stunned for a moment, his soldier really didn't tell him how many people the little merchant had brought with him: "A merchant group?"

"Ahem, no, it's not. Mann was even more embarrassed and coughed dryly.

"A caravan?" Hiskama asked after a moment's thought.

"A little, a little less. Mann raised his brow and said, "We've brought a carriage with us." ”

······

In the hall, Hiscama's face was a little subtle, a carriage, which was probably the smallest business he had ever talked about.

Halfway, he took out a gold coin from his arms with some tears and laughter, and said.

"Every bit of food is precious during the war, and if you don't mind, I'm willing to buy it from you in my own name. ”

When Mann saw the gold coin in the city lord's hand, he saw that the light peculiar to a merchant instantly lit up, and he nodded repeatedly.

"Oh, of course, I'm more than happy to provide you with these precious foods, Lord Lord. ”

Listening to his sensual words, Chu Chu, who stood to the side, glanced at his mouth. It is worthy of the sin of greed, and at such a young age, he has already shown the demeanor of a profiteer.

Hiscama nodded, and got up from his seat and walked over to Mann.

At this time, I found that his legs and feet seemed to be a little inflexible, it should have been injured somewhat, and it was a recent injury, and he had not yet recovered.

Hiscama handed the gold coins into Mann's hand and said, "Then my guards will come to you to collect the goods, and these will be taken as deposits." ”

Deposit, Mann reluctantly resisted the rising corners of his mouth, he had only planned to buy two or three large silver coins for this carload, but now the deposit alone has exceeded his expectations.

"No problem, no problem at all. Looking at Mann's face as a profiteer, Chu took a step back slightly.

"Also. Hiscama stood in front of the two of them and bowed his head solemnly.

"I would like to make a commission to both of you in my own name, and of course, I will pay the commission fee separately. ”
