Chapter 8: The Unlucky Rowan
Davide Rowan rode a tall wildebeest, with his head held high in the middle of the modest road in Ill City, with ten loaded six-wheeled flatbed carriages behind him.
has an older brother who is a knight chief, which makes Rowan extremely proud as a trainee knight.
It is proud that he can rely on the name of his brother to drill in the circle of nobles in Durukshire.
In the ice and snow, David Rowan cursed his damn anger while secretly rejoicing that he could get the position of grain purchasing officer.
Luo Wen, who was in the aristocratic circle, certainly understood the benefits of buying grain.
This was originally the responsibility of Duke Duruck's third son, who was nothing more than an executor.
The purchase price given by the Duke's Palace was 5 dinars for a pound of rye, 10 dinars for barley, and 30 dinars for crystalline wheat.
The white bread eaten by the Orlanto aristocracy was produced only in the Caspar Plain in the Varied Jersey Valley.
As far as the price of York City crystal wheat is concerned, the high price of 100 dinars a pound is that the common people only eat it on various festivals.
"Damn the heavy snow, if you don't stop, you can only rush back in the snow!"
Davide Rowan tightened his cloak, the cold knight's visor, and he knew that his curled beard must have frozen on the visor.
The edelweiss shoulders worn on the upper body can only keep warm from the waist up, and the legs on the stirrups are almost unconscious.
"If there is a dragon grass suit, this kind of qi is nothing!"
I dragged a flask on the side of the wildebeest, but it didn't respond twice, no, and it was also frozen on the wildebeest's iron armor.
Seeing the intersection ahead, a rider in the convoy caught up with Davide Rowan.
"Lord Davide, are you going to the Duke's Palace, or are you going to the town hall with me?"
Looking at the knight on the side, Rowan could only see two bright eyes through the opponent's face armor.
Although the knight used honorifics and hammered his right hand on his chest when he asked Rowan, he still saw a trace of disdain in the other party's eyes.
A knight who is almost the same age as Rowan already has the strength of the intermediate level, and it is proper to advance to a high-level knight.
The horsewhip in his hand was held vigorously by Luo Wen, and as soon as he raised it halfway, he saw the "two-headed sea snake" family badge on the other party's chest.
Whether it is a family crest or a black mid-level knight badge, it is not something that Davide Rowan can provoke.
The raised horsewhip pointed straight ahead, and Rowan laughed:
"Of course it's the Duke's Palace, and the beautiful Lady Edverine must have prepared a barbecue and wine!"
Thinking of the warm fireplace, the roast goose with a whole belly full of spices, Rowan swallowed directly.
In the blink of an eye, Rowan skillfully untied the money bag from his waist and threw it to the stunned knight.
"Go to the city hall and finish your business, and take everyone to the tavern to warm up!
The knight who took the money bag skillfully turned it up and down, and by the weight of the money bag, he guessed that it contained at least fifty silver coins.
In addition to the money for drinking under his hands, there should be a lot left.
"Thank you, generous Lord Davide!" the knight beckoned, and two squires rode out from the convoy behind him, who were arranged to keep Rowan safe.
"Have a wonderful evening at the Ducal Palace!"
If praying to the gods could turn back time, David Rowan would definitely regret going to the Duke of Caspar's Palace.
Just around the corner where you could see the gate of the Duke's Palace, Rowan ate a stuffy stick.
The flying snowflakes gave Gullie and Francis an optimal "subliminal environment."
slapped over the three of them, and the fat man wanted to shout on the street: It's all under the super level!
However, good wishes were dashed at Gu Lie's right foot.
Luo Wen, who was awakened by the cold cold water, was kicked in the face before he could clearly look at the environment he was in.
"Stop, stop, who are you, do you know who I am?"
Another kick!
"I'm doing things for Duke Duruc, you untouchables......"
This time it went straight to both feet.
"Spare your life, spare your life, are you a Brotherhood or a Pirate, I can ransom myself!
Rowan cried, and the three people with bird's beak masks in front of him didn't give themselves a chance to speak at all.
As long as there is a mouth, what is ushered in is a kick.
"Fool, ransom shit! Uncle, am I a man who is short of money?"
Although the room was dimly lit, Rowan could still see the brilliant gemstone rings between Francis's hands, one of which was crystal with a cloud-like pattern, which was clearly a high-quality space ring, and he had seen Duke Duruk's eldest son bring one.
Rodney pulled the fat man back, and slowly spoke through the crystal lenses of the mask.
"Even if Duke Duruk is in urgent need of grain and grain, he will not brave the wind and snow to buy grain, what happened to Durukshire?"
Rodney's right palm flipped up, and a foot-long flame was terrifying.
"Heart, heart, my beard! This magician lord is not Duruk who is short of food, but the pirates who came from the sea to buy a large amount of food at a high price!"
Seeing the flame in Rodney's hand shaking, Rowan hurried to take the sword
"Master Magician, the price of a pound of rock candy in Dirkstein City has been copied to the price of two wildebeests, Duke Duruk has sealed the city in the name of heavy snow, and only the purchase team of the Duke's Palace can leave the city!"
"Oh?" the fat man, who showed a hint of curiosity, took a dark gold dagger to trim his nails, then pinched the tip of the dagger and gently tapped it on the cadet knight's badge on Rowan's chest.
"This information is classified, what I don't understand is how one of your apprentice knights knows?"
Seeing the dagger, Davide Rowan felt a chill between his legs and almost fainted.
"I am good friends with the son of Duke Duruk, and he told me this!"
"And, besides, by this time next year, Caspar will be rewarded to my father by His Majesty the King!"
At this moment, Rowan directly substituted himself into the role of Duke Duruk's son, speaking incoherently.
Before and after, the unlucky Rowan revealed that he had lost some aspect of his ability as a man.
I frequently appear in the tavern to find call girls, and it is all to cover up my shortcomings.
Extraordinary and the fat man glanced at each other, and Rodney next to him had already entered a state of contemplation.
The last step of the interrogation is a routine deception.
"These things can't buy your life!"
The extraordinary cold words that the audience didn't say anything made Rowan startled.
"I'm going to get some breath outside!
Seeing that Extraordinary directly took off the beak mask, Davide Rowan closed his eyes directly, and his whole body trembled!
"No, don't pick it!"
"Yes, yes, I remember! Behind my wildebeest tail, there was a letter from the eldest son of the Duke to Ed Flimf!
The cunning Davide Rowan finally broke down, and found that he was too smart to save his life, and finally revealed the biggest secret of the trip.
Francis retrieved the letterhead, and Davide Rowan breathed a sigh of relief.
After being forced by the Extraordinary to write a bloody confession, the midshipman who was paralyzed on the ground finally saved his life temporarily.
