The scorching midday sun scorched the green trees, rippling layers of summer atmosphere.

And the town of Balu, as an important supply point from the iron center of Cold Stone Town to the starting point of the mainland Maz City, obviously has countless caravans stationed here.

With the scorching sun, it once again swept the trade road outside the town.

At the end of the road, a new team of people appeared.

Seeing this, the owner of the tea shop in Zhenkou hurriedly went to the cellar to get some ice, and then prepared a jar of fruit tea with cool air in the most eye-catching place early.

Sure enough, the tea shop owner's move undoubtedly attracted the entire caravan that planned to enter the town to rest.

A small caravan of a dozen people sat under the pergola without hesitation.

And the owner of the tea shop himself hurriedly greeted everyone while distributing cans of fruit tea with enough ice to everyone one by one.

However, while the owner of the tea shop was distributing fruit tea, he always intentionally or unintentionally, swept his gaze lightly over everyone's faces.

And whenever you see a young man, you will pay a little attention.

Almost unabashedly, they watched as to whether the young men themselves were the original members of the caravan.

But at the same time that the owner of the tea shop was secretly observing everyone, there was also a woman named Su Yan in the caravan, who seemed to be observing the actions of the owner of the tea shop.

I saw that this was a tall and thin girl, and her appearance was exceptionally beautiful.

The girl's age is about sixteen or seventeen years old, which is exactly the age when the tea in the jar is fragrant.

And the girl herself seems to be clinging to some unknown self-restraint, even on such a hot day, she still covers her face with fine sand, so that people can't see her true face clearly.

But even so, through the faint light-colored scarf, the girl's appearance is still unforgettable.

Even because the girl's appearance is too good, this has caused men, including the tea shop owner, to subconsciously dare not stare at her for too long.

It seems that he is afraid that such an act will lead to the disgust of this beautiful girl.

And just when the owner of the tea shop was avoiding the girl's gaze with a weak heart, and at the same time hurriedly swept his eyes from her.

Something that quietly fell into the eyes of the tea shop owner also fully explained the true identity of the woman.

I saw that the one placed next to the girl was a common lyre in the north of a continent.

And the lyre is obviously an instrument used by bards.

Although the lyre itself, its production is indeed crude enough. But the woman's own clothes are not luxurious, but they also confirm that she is a down-and-out bard.

Therefore, after confirming the identity of the girl, the owner of the tea shop no longer paid attention to the girl's movements, but looked at several young men again, and continued to confirm the explanation of the group of "employers".

......

However, what the tea shop owner couldn't have imagined was that Su Yan, who didn't have any special bard in his eyes, was exactly what he really wanted to search for.

Because Su Mu was in the original world, he had already played a female role as a coser because of a bet with a friend.

So at this time, Su Mu was wearing the coat he had obtained from the female attacker, and covered the details of his face with a light gauze scarf, and others did not suspect his gender at all.

As for the lyre, it was simply imitated by Su Mu, and it was just a prop used to hide the dark blade, and it couldn't play any music at all.

Even at this time, Su Mu's slightly neutral voice was also the result of his compression of his vocal cords with Jingqi.

Su Mu's biggest advantage now was that he already knew in advance the true concern standards of those attackers. Therefore, through the practice of cross-dressing girls, they can cleverly avoid the search of the other party.

And at this moment, it seems that Su Mu's method is obviously successful.

The owner of the tea shop, who was the eyeliner of the attackers, did not contact the girl in front of him with the young man they were searching for.

Even the same stems from the peep of the tea shop owner.

Su Mu was 100% sure that that group of people must also be in this town.

......

However, Su Mu, who had secretly seen through everything, was not in a hurry to leave at this time.

After a moment of drinking and resting, Su Mu still followed the team of men and horses that he had joined halfway, and walked unhurriedly towards the trade area in the center of the town.

Because of Su Mu's merchant team at this time, they took the circulation of materials as the core of survival after all.

So even if they come to this small transit town, they still try to sell some of the goods and then buy some of the specialties here.

At this time, Su Mu also happened to be mixed in the crowd and came to the trading place quietly.

In fact, the scale of trade in Balu Town is not even one-tenth of that of Hanshi Town, and even the trade market is only a small half block surrounded by a few shops.

And under the scorching sun at this moment, there are even few customers in the neighborhood.

But even so, among the few shops in the town, the most exquisitely renovated one still has a large enough background.

And this shop itself is also the purpose of Su Mu's visit.

......

I saw that in the middle of the bluestone street of the town, there was a shop that also hung a huge signboard.

And just like the sword and axe cross of the Wanderers' Union, or the stalker's Guild's animal teeth, the Libra pattern engraved on this sign is also a symbol that the whole continent understands.

The Trade Pact, an institution that started only as a business and never touched any force.

But it is such an organization, and it is protected by the three kingdoms of the world at the same time, as well as by the seven major groups.

As for the eight groups at the top of the world, the only one that has not affirmed the asylum trade covenant is actually ...... Never had an armed trade pact itself.

At this time, Su Mu made a special trip to the branch of the trade covenant.

In fact, it is also for the sake of continuing her journey to Maz City with the image of a girl today.

Because today's Su Mu has temporarily abandoned his identity as a mercenary, and only went on the road as a weak woman.

Therefore, at this time, Su Mu was not only unable to go on the road alone, but also more inconvenient to get a free itinerary.

So the only choice left for Su Mu was to spend money on the caravan.

But at this time, Su Mu himself, except for the thirty percent commission advanced in advance for the last escort mission, he had no money in this world to use.

Even because Su Mu, who took over the task at that time, did not have the qualifications to be a mercenary.

Therefore, Su Mu's employment price at that time was actually only the lowest level.

And such a loss of money is obviously not able to support the weak girl Su Yan to successfully go to the distant Maz City.

Therefore, Su Mucai had to come to the shop of the Trade Covenant.

Try to sell some of the valuable items in exchange for his own funds to continue his journey!
