Chapter 140: Murderous Characters Five

On the second day, Van Lentin continued to the palace as if nothing had happened.

It's just that I have a plan in my heart, and I naturally have a little more scrutiny in my eyes.

He gave everyone he met and talked to. At this glance, the natural look is the real emotion.

However, the more people I see, the colder my heart becomes.

In front of him, some people are flattering, some are loyal to their duties, but without exception, the same thing is - no one has the slightest affection for Fan Lentine! Although some emotions are hidden deeply, Fan Lenting knows that most of these people hate him to the bone! Fan Lenting naturally couldn't be wrong, his strength was already at the pinnacle of this world, and he was the sharpest assassin by profession, and he was extremely sensitive to the perception of subtle emotions.

Reluctantly, he expanded the scope of his "search" and walked around the palace - he had just made trouble with the Assassins, and his "cautious" attitude was very reasonable.

As a result, it is even less effective to probe those who are not his subordinates! Everyone, male or female, was full of hatred for him. Because in this palace, everything revolves around the big fat man. And he, the "loyal dog of Barry", stands in the way of almost everyone......

The only person who didn't hate him, but only hated him, was the magician he called the "Ghost Master...... He's so upright, he's a nerd at all.

In the past, Fan Lenting hated this person very much, but now he faintly feels that this person is still "cute".

*****

Like Stormwind, Dakhla's royal palace was built on the highest point of the city.

The houses of ordinary people in this world are no different from us in a boxy way. On the contrary, there are various landmark buildings, and out of envy of the gods in the sky, places such as royal palaces and guilds are all in the style of temples, and they are to be built on high places.

That is, replacing the walls with tall columns, digging a pool in the middle of the house, hanging curtains around it to block the cold wind, and so on.

Fortunately, the Penrien Peninsula is located in the south, and it is not much cold in winter.

Ordinary families are forbidden to live in this kind of room that leaks everywhere, cooler in summer and cooler in winter...... If you find it, you will be thrown into a prison with walls everywhere and no wind at all. Particularly poisonous dishes.

Fan Lunting stood in the palace, but felt a chill penetrate deep into his bones.

He suddenly thought of something and ordered, "It's cold, go, light a few braziers around the king." ”

……

"Look! One by one, I know how to compete for power in front of me all day long, who can care about me and my body like Fan Lun! A few minutes later, King Barry, who had been warmed by the fire, took the opportunity to reprimand the courtiers.

Although it is only early autumn, the weather does not feel cold, but how can it be comfortable to bake a brazier and blow a cool breeze. Besides, the high temperature in the hall can ask those dancers and maids to wear less and less, and the world of greasy senior sisters and enthusiastic singing and dancing is very interesting.

The tide of demons is surging from the north, and Thuvariet is sharpening his sword in the south, but the king of Bari is drunk and dreams every day, and he still captures the military power and does not move...... No one knew what he was thinking. But no one dared to take King Barry for a fool, and King Barry had lost many people in the decades, and all of them died!

Many people thought that "Barry's loyal dog" must know something about it, but Van Renting, like them, didn't know anything about it. He only knew that King Barry was really not in a hurry, not pretending to be calm on the surface.

*****

"Pony, my lord's headache! Is the carbon you bought toxic? Are you trying to kill me? Also...... Kill me, and you'll be free. The old man groaned and said that he had been bedridden for the past few days, and could not even get out of the door.

"Master, it's only early autumn, and there are too few people burning charcoal, which is already the best carbon on the market. When the weather gets colder, I'll buy you better carbon! Besides, this carbon is really not carbon poisonous! Matthew explained bitterly.

"Then why does my head hurt so much?"

“…… Sir, how old are you...... It's big. ”

Hearing this, Fan Lenting's hand next door shook slightly.

“…… Sling the bull...... Then you tuck the tent tighter, I think it's cold. ”

……

Fan Lenting listened quietly to the old man and the little servant's complaints, explanations, and another night. The next day, when his men came down to pick him up, Fan Lunting, who was about to walk out of the courtyard, suddenly stopped, pointed to the next door and said, "The palace uses the best fine carbon, send a few hundred catties over!" ”

"Yes." The subordinates hurriedly agreed, not daring to ask the reason.

Since the fire was comfortable, King Barry naturally lit a few braziers when he slept. When I woke up the next day, I also felt some pain in my head. But he didn't think it was a carbon problem - did he drink too much wine? Did you go to bed too late again? Are you indulging in indulgence again? Are you annoyed by something again?

There are so many causes of headaches that you can't find carbon at all.

Even Fan Lenting thought so, remembering the sentence "You are old", the idea of finding a way back rose again.

As for carbon, how can there be a problem with one or two carbons in a gold coin!

Expensive things must be good, and the ignorant views of ancient and modern China and foreign countries are all the same. Therefore, Cordyceps is cherished and can cure all diseases, but there is mercury in it; A hundred years of ginseng can live and die human flesh and bones, but in fact, it is not as good as a shot of morphine; Shark fin is highly nutritious and rich in a variety of heavy metals and mercury...... The ancients also used to grind the jade into the end and eat it, it is said that the high ones don't want to be wanted! I don't say later if you have stones.

There are also people who put gold dust on the meat and eat themselves like fools. But the cook was cut down, and the gold was still good.

Why do so many people believe that the elixir of the Taoist priest can live forever and cure all diseases? Because...... Expensive! Refining a heavy metal pill costs thousands of dollars! If it is used by the emperor, there are tens of thousands of ruined pieces! What realgar, mercury, caustic soda, hydrochloric acid, centennial ginseng...... These things were sky-high in ancient times! But the more expensive it is, the more I believe it is true, and the more obsessed I become.

Pearls were once an indispensable treasure to wipe on the face and eat in the stomach, but when cultured pearls became rampant, the wealthy turned to wild pearls. Later, I was annoyed to find that even the brick family could not distinguish between artificial pearls and wild pearls, and the composition of pearls was thoroughly studied and understood, and there was indeed no "mysterious substance" in it...... Mader's Staff! As a result, the pearl was removed from the menu, and the price of cabbage fell to the price.

I said that you brick people who are engaged in research are just annoying, and you are talking nonsense all day long! Is it easy for a rich person to pretend to be forced, do you know that you ruined an industry?

Therefore, cheap carbon is poisonous, and the high-priced carbon used in the palace cannot be poisonous.

Many poor people died of carbon poisoning in these years, but no nobles took it seriously, because they burned high carbon prices and lived in leaky houses.

*****

Since using the high-priced carbon, the old man next door really doesn't have a sore head anymore.

Fan Lenting was a little happy, and occasionally wondered, should I stock up on a batch now?

In the future, at least there will be non-toxic high-priced carbon available.
