Chapter 192: Small Talk
On this day, Bai Lan came to a lot of wealthy merchants, princes and nobles, and all countries also sent princes. It's not that these princes want to come to buy things, but an unspoken rule between countries - to give face to each other. Today, you invited me to hold a large-scale event, I went, and tomorrow if I invite you to an event of a continent-wide nature, don't you have to come to support the field and strengthen the façade? Regardless of the effectiveness of the event, the governments of all countries will be able to get by.
Interestingly, this year, it is not the prince who represents the ancient bird country, but the Duke of Xingqi, and the nine emperor princes represent the magic guild, and the emperor of the ancient bird country did not send the prince over again, and he doesn't know what medicine is sold in the gourd.
That night, the equatorial mercenary group from Syracuse City took over the security of the entire Bailan, and these mercenaries were all armed with real guns and ammunition, and fixed duty points were arranged in all the main streets of Bailan City and at the entrance of the tavern, not to mention the Jingshuo Palace, where wealthy businessmen and magnates from all walks of life gathered.
A few days ago, a large number of wealthy businessmen and magnates settled in Jingshuo Palace, and Bei Ming was still calculating how much money they could earn this time when he was having dinner with his parents. Duke Xinglan smiled and said that he was naïve, how could Elvis, an old money fan, who was comparable to a money printing machine, sell Jingshuo Palace, just gave them the right to use Beichen Mansion for a few years. It was not until this time that Beiming knew that the so-called "buy" referred to this right of use.
As for the location of the auction, this Beiming also learned today, just above the central corridor, yes, it is above. It's no wonder that Beiming is lonely and unheard, in order to create topicality, Elvis keeps the auction venue and location strictly secret every year, and ordinary people don't know until the day of the auction!
For example, last year, in order to maintain Bai Lan's style, Elvis built a huge tavern, and this year's theme is 'Soaring to the sky', so it was built in the sky.
Tonight, thousands of Bai Lan's powerhouses will use magic and technology to build an auction hall floating in the air. I don't know how it is, Pu Xiuwen originally wanted to go and see it, but when he learned that there was a curfew in the whole city tonight, he dispelled this idea.
In one of the bars on the tenth floor of Jingshuo Palace, Bei Ming and the others sat by the window and looked in the direction of the central corridor. The group chatted with each other, when Paul and the King came over with a beer.
"What do you guys think?" Paul asked directly, as he sat down.
Pu Xiuwen and Fu Tianshui condensed their hearts and they stood up directly to say hello: "Good evening, senior." ”
Paul has lived in Beichen Mansion for nearly a year, and Pu Xiuwen has gone to Duke Xinglan from time to time to learn some military art or something, and he is also familiar with Paul.
"Don't worry about that, just sit down. Paul waved his hand casually.
These two grandmaster-level masters came over a table and couldn't let go, and they were better in the face of Paul, but in the face of the living history of the King of Freedom, it made people feel that the pressure was too great, but this did not include Beiming.
Bei Ming saw that there were only two of them left, so he asked, "What about the old liar?
"Hahahaha, he doesn't have the guts. Because tomorrow's auction hall needs to use mechanical knowledge, the old guy was called in by Elvis to help. The King said with a smile.
Everyone nodded, and instantly understood, in terms of mechanical old liars, they must be among the best in Bailan.
"Why didn't the old pervert go? Didn't you say that it should be built with both magic and technology?" asked Bei Ming with his chin raised. This title was given by Beiming after he saw them show off to him with beautiful women that day.
These three people are: an old liar, an old pervert, and an old gambler.
King Xiaoyao took a sip of wine and said, "He, let me tell you, if it weren't for that kid Xinglan, he would have been driven out of Bailan a long time ago, and he still thought..."
"My lord, the Sixth Prince has just arrived, and I want to visit you first...", the guard said in a low but anxious voice.
The six princes they are talking about are the six princes of Tozaki Province.
"Oh, he's coming. As he spoke, King Xiaoyao put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "Tell him to let him see others first, and I will look for him later." ”
The guard was a little embarrassed and said, "Uh... The sixth prince said that he would visit the Duchess in a moment..."
King Xiaoyao frowned when he heard this, and said, "Forget it, I'd better go and have a look." Then he said hello to them and left.
Duchess....Bei Ming fell into deep thought after hearing this, it is not excluded that it is other dukes, but what, the duchess related to the King of Freedom can only be her own mother, could it be that my mother once had a period with the six princes of Dongqi Kingdom? But Bei Ming didn't say this, otherwise he would have to let his father beat him to death.
After the King of Escapes left, Paul asked a few of them, "How are you doing with your 'Loki Treasure'?"
"Isn't it like playing with us geniuses to crack a map, of course we have studied it thoroughly!" Pu Xiuwen said proudly.
"Tell me, I'll see if it's right. Paul said, holding the glass. 、
Bei Ming also said: "Tell him about it, let him give us a reference, this treasure map has been in his hands for decades, he must know where it is!"
Then Mourning began to whisper how they used poetry as a starting point, and then collected old poems, how troublesome it was to determine that 'Rocky Shenzang' was in Tozaki.
Paul took a sip of wine and nodded, "You guys are very good, you can crack it in a few days." ”
"That senior, where is the 'Loki Divine Treasure'?" asked Hongxue with a little star in her eyes.
Paul didn't speak, just shook his head and picked up his glass.
"Senior, what else are you selling, you can show us a rough place. Pu Xiuwen said anxiously.
Bei Ming looked at Paul's expression and probably understood, he didn't know the specific location! Thinking of the three of them as a whole, Bei Ming instantly understood!
"Can't you find a place for King Xiaoyao?" Bei Ming asked, he understood that the reason why the old liar and Paul asked King Xiaoyao for help and didn't look for others was because King Xiaoyao was the second emperor in Dongqi, and he was in the Dongqi Empire, so it would be very easy for him to find a place in Dongqi. But looking at Paul's face, it was clear that their plan was not going well.
Paul shook his head helplessly and said: "During this period of time, the King of Freedom has asked people to search all the vicinity of the Dongqi Tailanier Mountains, and only the deep mountains and old forests have not been found. ”
Modern people live in the city all year round, and the distance from the jungle is getting farther and farther away, and no one can tell what is in the deep mountains and old forests.
Beiming and the others looked at each other, and they all understood that the next step was to enter the deep mountains, and no one knew what they would encounter inside.
"Campbell and Barlow are already on their way today, you have to do your best!" Paul said, spreading his hands.
"Is it so fast?" asked Mourning in surprise.
