Chapter 13: Karl's Little Trick

"I'm Carl Musk and I'm from the county of Carinha in the Greater Turin district. ”

Ignoring the noise of various tones around him, Karl introduced himself directly: "I came to visit Baron Haywell in the City of Silver Tide, and unfortunately, the Baron's family went to the holy city of Vatranggang and made a pilgrimage to the Holy See. So, I'll have to stay here for a while, waiting for the Baron to come back. ”

Carl had been in the workplace for a few years in his previous life, and he knew that he had the right not to expire and invalidate, and to have connections that was equal to no reason. So when I came up, I named the identity of my Musk family and the relationship with Baron Hayfour.

As for whether he is an illegitimate child who has been deprived of inheritance rights in the Musk family, or a young son who is favored by the head of the family, these outsiders do not know.

After all, other companies don't know the real situation of you in the original company, and can only evaluate your ability according to the resume you wrote yourself.

"Is Baron Hyfort, the owner of the Golden Rose Firm, the financial advisor to the Mayor, and the famous Baron Haveor of the 'Golden Fleece' family?"

Sure enough, Carl reported to his home, and the noise in the tavern suddenly became much quieter. Lord Hayfort is a powerful man in the Silver Tide City, originally a foreign nobleman, from the famous "Golden Fleece" family, in a wealthy territory rich in cattle, sheep and olives on the Hileaa Peninsula.

The Baron's most legendary experience was that he mortgaged all his possessions, borrowed money to build a large fleet, and ventured into the maritime trade industry, which was equally risky and rewarding.

His actions were once considered insane, despised and ridiculed by all the lords who regarded the land as the root of the nobility. However, when he succeeded in taking the plunge and the size of the Haywell family's wealth increased dozens of times in one fell swoop, everyone had to marvel at his amazing courage and vision.

Baron Hayfort is very accurate and good at investment, after he came to the Silver Tide City, he came up with a few ideas for the mayor and several big figures in the council, so that they made a lot of money, won the trust of the mayor and the council, and soon became the financial adviser of the mayor, in fact, he was responsible for the work of the entire Silver Tide City Finance Department, and was the hot real power figure in the entire Silver Tide City.

Such a big man doesn't even need to do anything, just a word, and many families can go bankrupt and unemployed, and live on the streets. Carl can have a relationship with such a big person, whether it is true or not, those who are heckling have consciously restrained the sound of heckling.

After all, no one knows if this young man, who can get in touch with the Baron of the Golden Fleece, will suddenly soar and turn into a tax collector and sheriff in the city, and come back to trouble them.

"Musk, the Shanyan family?

The barman glanced up at Carl and said, "You don't look like that!"

The Musk family is a well-known knightly family known for being conservative and stubborn. Their family crest is three mountain rock boulders built together, so they have the nickname of the mountain rock family.

The people of the Shanyan family are old-fashioned and serious, and they are known as the granite-like Musk. Carl really doesn't look like a serious Musk.

"That's why I was kicked out of the family!"

Karl shrugged his shoulders slightly, and deliberately said in a nonchalant tone: "Maybe they think I was born into the wrong family, and I shouldn't be a Musk like granite, but a Haywell like a Golden Fleece, or a Klein who drinks ink." ”

"I don't have a job for you here!"

Uncle Bar is not entangled in Karl's identity, in this era, it is a big sin for commoners to pretend to be nobles, and knights and nobles value family honor more than life, if Carl is found to be a member of the Musk family, then what awaits him will be a high bounty and hunt, and many people will be happy to use his head to please a powerful and noble family.

"I only have temporary jobs here such as porters in docks and warehouses, changers in pulp washers, kitchen helpers and servants, etc., which are inferior jobs, and are not suitable for people of status like you! If you want to find a decent job, I am afraid that you have come to the wrong place!"

The barman was obviously not interested in Carl, so he directly rejected him: "Since you know a big man like Baron Hayfour, then you can directly ask Lord Baron Hairwell to help you arrange it! Even if Lord Hayfort is not there, I think his butler can help you find a decent job without losing your status." ”

"I hope so, too!"

Karl said helplessly: "It's a pity that I met thieves on the road, and the salute was robbed by these hateful guys, and now I am not only penniless, but even the documents to prove my identity have been lost." The Baron's butler, though merciful, will not help a stranger without identification!"

"I sympathize with your plight, but I'm sorry I can't help you. ”

Uncle Bar wiped the copper kettle, put the copper kettle back in its place, turned around and prepared to leave.

"Wait, Uncle John!"

Seeing that Uncle Bar was leaving, Carl didn't care about selling it, and hurriedly said: "I know Uncle Todd, he often mentions you to me, and he also told me that if you encounter any trouble in the City of Silver Tide, come to the copper kettle tavern in the gladiolus bend of Alfalfa Avenue to find you!"

"Todd?"

The bar uncle suddenly stopped, turned around, his ordinary eyes suddenly sharpened, and he stared at Carl like a falcon: "Do you know Todd?"

"Of course!"

Watching Uncle Bar turn around, Carl couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, of course he knew Uncle Todd, but the relationship was limited to the level between the little kid who loved to listen to stories and the old drunkard who loved to chatter, as for what went to the Silver Tide City, what trouble was there to find Tom Daddy in the Copper Kettle Tavern and the like, it was even more nonsense, Uncle Todd had never said such a thing.

However, this does not prevent Carl from pulling the tiger skin to make a big banner, anyway, it is a fact that he and Uncle Todd know each other, Graystone Town and Nagar City are far apart, and there is no phone WeChat in this era, and Uncle Tom can't personally ask Uncle Todd for verification, so he doesn't have to worry about being debunked. Moreover, with his familiarity with Uncle Todd, even if the two meet in the future, Uncle Todd will most likely not debunk it when it comes to this.

"Uncle Todd is now in Greystone in Carinia, where is his hometown, and he has returned to his hometown since the Battle of Trebizond, when he retired from the Silver Dawn Mercenary Regiment because he was shot in the knee. ”

"Uncle Todd loves to drink, and when he gets drunk, he likes to brag about his story in the Silver Dawn......"

"Uncle Todd has a lot of scars on his body, and it is said that one scar is still a burn scar left by your team when you went to the Central Mountain Range to slay the dragon together, and was sprayed by the dragon's breath......"

"Uncle Todd often mentions you, Uncle Tom, saying that you are the best shield defender in the warband, and that you saved his life in several times of danger......"
