Chapter 184: Old Friends Meet
Compared with Mingyue City, Berg City is only less than a quarter of Mingyue City in terms of scale, but Berg City can become a rare prosperous city in China with its small area, and this is thanks to its well-developed transportation and geographical location......
"So, you're going to escort a caravan to Berg City?"
Hart sat in his room, holding a freshly baked brown loaf of bread topped with a thick layer of jam that was his daily breakfast routine.
"That's right, it will take about half a month, but the commission is very generous, you should know this, I will be able to concentrate on cultivation after I come back......
Han Yuliang held the freshly brewed hot tea in his hand and took a sip, a sweet taste mixed with a little bitterness flowed into his body along the root of his tongue, making his originally tired body a lot more energetic.
Today is the day when Han Yuliang is going to set off, and the time is set for half past three in the afternoon, and the location is the south exit of Mingyue City. Because he was living in Hart's house, Han Yuliang felt the need to tell him his whereabouts, so he started such a topic at breakfast time.
"Uh-huh......," Hart muttered, letting go of the untouched black bread in his hand.
Han Yuliang sensed that Hart had something to say and asked, "What's wrong, Hart?"
"There aren't many caravans rushing from Bright Moon City to Naberg City these years, it can be said that it is very rare, do you know what kind of goods your caravan is carrying?" Hart picked up a steaming cup of coffee and took a sip.
"The goods are confidential. ”
Han Yuliang shook his head, according to what he knew about the freelance association in the past few days, Han Yuliang found that they were very concerned about the privacy of their customers, so they would not tell their members any information other than tasks.
If someone tries to leak information about a customer, not only will they be expelled, but they will also be held accountable by one of the Free Society's deployments.
"Maybe I'm thinking too much, but you'd better be careful along the way, I'll let Heidi clean your room every day......"
Hart then chatted about trivial matters, and after that, he kicked Han Yuliang out of the library after breakfast.
Han Yuliang came to the exit of the south of the city and saw a caravan, next to the caravan there was a sign of the Freelance Association, which was the caravan they were going to escort for the next half month.
"Stop, please reveal your identity first!"
As soon as he walked to the caravan, Han Yuliang was stopped by someone from a freelance association.
Han Yuliang took out the badge of the Freelancers Association, and at the same time he also took out a rolled-up piece of paper, which was the paperwork for signing this assignment at the Freelancers Association.
"Well, the escort mission starts at half-past three, and there are still some people who haven't arrived, so you can rest over there. Also, have a nice trip!"
It was a young man with short blond hair who spoke, but his expression had a calmness that did not belong to his age.
Han Yuliang walked in the direction pointed by the young man, and in that direction there was a small pergola, with a wide mat spread out underneath, and a few chairs placed here.
"It seems that you are the one who will escort our caravan this time, I hope we can cooperate happily this time! My name is Jayenko, you should be Master Hanyu Liang!"
Han Yuliang was still observing, and a low voice sounded next to him, it was a man with a thin body, yellow face, and half bald hair.
Jaynko's eyes were squinting all the time, unsure whether he was open or closed, and his smile that covered almost his entire face, and the connection between them was not very good.
After chatting for a while, Jaynko took Han Yuliang to visit the caravan briefly, and also introduced several important people in charge of the caravan, as for him is the owner of this caravan.
"You can come to me if you need anything, this trip depends on your protection!"
Jaynko grinned again, holding out his pale, withered hand.
"Happy working together!"
Han Yuliang nodded, and took Jainko's thin hand, which felt like holding a dead wood branch.
From the beginning to the end, Han Yuliang paid attention to the goods transported this time, but those goods were packed in black wooden boxes, and they were tightly wrapped in a layer of cloth, and when Jayenko introduced this, he didn't mention the goods at all.
This reminded Han Yuliang of what Hart said this morning......
Han Yuliang came to the pergola, where he saw a slightly obese young man and a petite young woman, both of them had beautiful faces, and it could be seen from the subtle movements between them that their relationship was not ordinary, but what puzzled Han Yuliang was that they looked very familiar!
The young man asked in a friendly manner, "Hey, are you also the guard of the caravan this time?"
Familiar sounds that can no longer be familiar!
Tudu!
Only then did Han Yuliang remember that the somewhat fat young man in front of him turned out to be Tudu, and the young woman beside him was the slug Ella when Han Yuliang was in the academy!
Because they hadn't seen each other for a few years, the faces of both of them had changed slightly, so Han Yuliang didn't recognize the two of them at the first time.
Han Yuliang only felt warm in his heart, and he almost blurted out 'Long time no see, I miss you so much', and then gave Tudu and Ella a warm hug!
But when that sentence was about to blurt out, Han Yuliang suddenly realized that he was Han Yuliang now, not Su Ya, the two of them would not recognize or recognize themselves at all, and after so many years, do they still remember me?
In the end, Han Yuliang still held back the excitement in his heart, and although his mind was chaotic, he still thought that it was the best choice not to reveal his true identity.
In this way, Han Yuliang met the two of them with a new identity.
During the chat, Han Yuliang found that Tudu and Ella's cultivation had both entered the early stage of the Orange Order, while he himself was still at the peak of the Yellow Order, which made Han Yuliang even more determined to make double efforts to improve his cultivation.
By half-past three, the caravan guards had arrived.
The six guards are all members of the Freelance Association, and for the sake of communication within the members, the Freelance Association also stipulates that the members are not allowed to reveal their real names, and that they need to use code names or other names when communicating, and this code and name will be recorded in the Freelance Association.
Han Yuliang's name in the Freelance Guild is Cass, Tudu's name is Tucci, and Ella's name is Suya.
Jaynko began to sort out the personnel of the caravan, and the people from the Freelance Guild began to emphasize some precautions, and after some detailed and complicated preparations, this time the escort mission from Bright Moon City to Berg City officially began.
Jayenke called the guards, including Han Yuliang, together, and put a smile on his face that belonged to him: "This time the trip will have to work for the six of you, if you have any needs, I hope we can ...... it."
After a brief conversation, Jainko told them all about the route of action, and told them all the trivial things such as where the goods were placed and where they needed to pay extra attention.
Han Yuliang and other guards were divided into two groups, one at the front of the caravan and the other at the back of the caravan, so that if anything happened in front or behind, the guards could respond to the accident in time to minimize the caravan's losses.
In this way, Han Yuliang, Tutu and Ella were placed in the carriage at the front of the caravan.
"Looks like you don't understand a lot about escort missions, don't you...... Are you new to the Freelancers' Association?"
In the conversation with Han Yuliang, Tu Du obviously felt something different, and asked puzzledly.
Han Yuliang was surprised that Zhongtu was able to become such a sensitive and brained person in just a few years, and couldn't help but feel a little funny, but after all, he didn't laugh out loud: "En...... It's true that I just joined the Freelancers Association a while ago, so I don't know a lot about it. ”
"Haha, that's really the case, but most newcomers will go to find tasks in Mingyue City, it's really rare to see something like you, but it doesn't matter, if there's anything you don't understand along the way, ask me!"
Tudu patted his chest and said confidently, if it were Han Yuliang in the past, he would definitely dislike him mercilessly.
"Tucci, I've heard others say that there are almost no caravans rushing from Bright Moon City to Berg City now, is that the case?"
Han Yuliang called Tudu's nickname and asked, after coming to the caravan, what Hart said lingered in Han Yuliang's head for a long time, and if he didn't understand, Han Yuliang couldn't put his mind at ease anyway.
Tudu touched his chubby chin and nodded: "It's really rare, at least I've never seen a businessman do this, but we're not businessmen after all, maybe they have different opinions, right?"
At this time, the sky outside had gradually darkened, and the towering city walls of Mingyue City had long been invisible, and the noisy chirping of summer cicadas was in the ears of walking in the forest.
Jainko rode at the front of the caravan, and next to him was a burly dark-skinned man named Dirk.
"Do you think our trip will go smoothly?" Jainko looked at the distant darkness ahead, his mouth pursed into a line, and his voice was a little cold.
"Perhaps, just cross the mountain road behind the swamp. "Dirk is like a taciturn man, speaking concisely and quickly.
"Maybe they already know!" Jaynko let out a deep breath.
