462. Baroque Inn
Wang Bo stopped and stopped with Cinderella along the way, and it took more than two months to arrive in France.
This France is very similar to the France that Wang Bo saw on the earth.
Even celebrities are very similar.
Like what...... Joan of Arc!
After entering France, Wang Bo was surprised to see a portrait of a female knight in the store, with the name and exploits of this female knight written underneath.
And this female knight is Joan of Arc.
This surprised Wang Bo very much, he didn't expect that in France in the fairy tale world, there was still a Joan of Arc, in a sense, this is really incredible.
Even the situation of this Joan of Arc is very similar to that of the Joan of Arc in France on Earth, and only in subtle places is there a slight difference.
Wang Bo has to admit that the fairy tale world is indeed beyond his imagination.
After inquiring all the way, Wang Bo found something more interesting.
In addition to France, this fairytale world also includes Great Britain, Italy, and some strange countries.
In Wang Bo's view, this world is likely to be a world that is modeled after the European continent, but adds some countries that did not exist on the ancient European continent.
For example, the kingdom where Cinderella is located, as well as some surrounding kingdoms, such as the Hibiscus Kingdom, the White Chrysanthemum Kingdom, and the Shona Kingdom, in ancient Europe, these countries did not exist.
But in this world, these countries exist.
From this point of view alone, Wang Bo cannot treat this world as the earth.
The fairy tale world is really far beyond my imagination.
After coming to France, Wang Bo and Cinderella still followed their own itinerary, and it took more than ten days to enter the hinterland of France and come to a small town.
This is where Cinderella's father is buried.
This is a typical French country town, the village is full of acquaintances, almost everyone knows each other, so Wang Bo's arrival has undoubtedly attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone looked at Wang Bo and Cinderella with curious eyes, and kept guessing where these two guests came from.
The rest of France is still further afield.
However, curiosity is curiosity, and the public has not taken off their vigilance against strangers, so everyone is just watching from afar, and no one has come up to talk to Wang Bo or Cinderella Rayla.
Wang Bo looked around, "Maybe we should find a few people to ask." ”
Cinderella nodded.
Although she knew that her father fell ill in this town and eventually died here, she did not know exactly where her father was buried.
She could only ask the people in the town.
So Cinderella stopped a man and asked if there was a merchant from a foreign land who died here a few years ago.
The subject of the questioning was a middle-aged woman, who looked Cinderella up and down, shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know, I don't remember this matter." ”
Cinderella thanked her and asked the next person.
But Cinderella asked a few people in a row, and everyone said they didn't know, which made Cinderella's heart full of anxiety and frustration, could it be that her father was so insignificant.
Did his father die in this small town in such obscurity?
Wang Bo stepped forward, patted her on the shoulder and said, "The way you asked is wrong, look at me."
He looked around, walked into a bakery, and placed a gold coin in front of the store manager, "A few years ago, a merchant from a foreign country died in your town, do you know any clues about this matter?" ”
The manager looked at the gold coins on the table and said, "I seem to have some impression of this." ”
"Good." Wang Bo put another gold coin, "Now, do you remember something?" ”
The shopkeeper looked at the two gold coins and said, "I remember, a few years ago there was indeed a merchant who passed by here and fell ill at the Baroque Hotel and died in the Baroque Hotel, because of this incident, the reputation of the Baroque Hotel is not very good." ”
"So, how do you get to the Baroque Hotel?"
"Turn left when you go out, and the third building is." The store manager carefully put away the two gold coins.
"Thank you."
Wang Bo smiled slightly, took Cinderella out of the door, and came to the so-called Baroque Hotel, as a country town, this hotel is indeed more humble than imagined.
The manager of the inn was an old man in his fifties, he was dressed like a gentleman in a very old but very clean clothes, and he had a warm smile on his face when he saw Wang Bo and Cinderella Rayla come in.
"Welcome two, do you want to stay at the hotel?"
Cinderella Rila couldn't wait to ask, "I want to ask if a merchant from a foreign country died in your hotel a few years ago." ”
The old man's face instantly turned ugly, and he wondered if these two guys were here to find fault.
Rayla hurriedly said: "Please don't get me wrong, in fact, that person is my father, I came this time to bring my father's bones home, so please tell me, where my father's bones are, please." ”
The old man's face softened a lot, and he looked at Rayla carefully, as if trying to distinguish something.
After a while, he said, "You don't look like him at all." ”
"I'm a lot like my mother," Rayla said. ”
The old man sighed and said, "Do you know, your father died in my hotel, which caused me a lot of trouble, especially before he died, I paid for the medical treatment, and this is the only loss-making transaction I made. ”
Rayla bowed her head and said, "I'm sorry. ”
Wang Bo chuckled, "If I'm not mistaken, he's a merchant, and if he dies, there should be a lot of goods, enough to match your loss." ”
The old man glared at Wang Bo and said loudly: "It's true that he is a businessman, but he has partners, and his goods have been taken away by his partners, and I have not received anything at all." ”
Wang Bo said with a smile: "Then I'm a little curious, he has a partner, why did you pay for the doctor, shouldn't it be his partner?" Would you be kind enough to shell out the money? ”
The old man was speechless.
Wang Bo casually slapped a few gold coins on the table and said slowly: "If you want money, I can give it to you, but you'd better not use these lies to deceive a girl's sympathy." ”
The old man's eyes began to light up as he looked at the gold coins on the table.
"Where is Rayla's father, tell me, and these gold coins can be given to you." Wang Bo is rich and generous, so he didn't take this little money in his eyes at all.
However, at this moment, a crisp voice suddenly came in from outside, "Baroque, I heard that two strangers have come to your hotel. ”
Immediately after, the door of the hotel was pushed open, and a young girl with a book in her arms walked in.
