Chapter 115: Prologue to the Trade Union (I)

Midnight, Buso Butra Marina area

Whenever Conway patrols its "Copper Kettle Hotel", .

In fact, with the development of the times, not only wine and food, but also hotels, casinos, and even beautiful women, this kind of large-scale "hotel" is actually similar to the nightclubs on the earth.

Although the customers in the docklands are vulgar, the level is very low, and the consumption is not very high, but it can also make Conway a profit of 200 silver lake every day, which is already quite good.

After inspecting it, Conway proudly returned to his upstairs office, but when he walked upstairs, he was shocked, instinctively felt that something was wrong, slowed down, looked around suspiciously, did not notice anything, he continued to move forward with some hesitation.

When he pushed open the door, he suddenly noticed something unusual - it was quiet upstairs, and the few bodyguards who had always been on duty at the door were nowhere to be seen at this time.

But at this moment, there was a cold and a pain in the back of his heart, and a sharp and blood-stained sword tip leaked out of Conway's chest.

Conway roared angrily, violently broke away, and turned around, his body had changed, and a strong werewolf had torn his clothes, although the werewolf was also fatally wounded, but it would not die immediately, and there would be a few minutes of temporary counterattack - he had already seen the bitch who betrayed him - his lieutenant Chrissy

It was at this moment that a clear voice came from the space: "Weakened! ”

As he spoke, a beam of green light hit it, and the werewolf immediately found that his body was weak, and the power of the dying explosion suddenly disappeared without a trace, the long sword was drawn, blood splashed, and the werewolf fell to the ground, struggling desperately, but it just couldn't gather enough strength, slowly, it felt blurred, and in its blurred eyes, it saw a man in a black robe passing by.

"Magic, it's magic, why? Why would a magician kill it? This thought sank into darkness with it.

Weakness, in fact, is a first-level necromancy, and it doesn't last long, just a few minutes, but this is enough, Chrissy, who did it, came back to her senses at this time, looked at the dead werewolf, but showed joy, she whispered: "Sure enough, it's a werewolf!" ”

Klept unions all operate in the shadows, and their leaders are rarely seen in daylight, making union leadership an excellent means for outliers to use to their ends.

Killing her own leader, this is taboo in the thieves' union, after all, the other union leaders definitely don't want to see this kind of atmosphere spread, but if the leader is a monster, it doesn't matter - she hurriedly pounced on the werewolf, groped for a while, and finally found an iron badge with a black net on it, and the word sergeant on the reverse, and gave it away.

The magician pulled down the mask, revealing a snow-white face, he took the badge, felt the faint magical aura on it, frowned and asked, "What is this?" ”

"It's the mark of the head of the union." Chrissy hurriedly said that the invisibility just now made her kill her boss, which made her very awe-inspiring about the power of magic.

The magician did not speak, waiting for her explanation, which Chrissy did immediately.

It turns out that the thieves' union that belongs to the god of the shadow, in fact, anyone can establish (the underworld), but after the establishment, it is necessary to obtain the recognition of the church of the hidden god of the shadow, which is not difficult to admit at all, basically it can be established by determining the contribution relationship, generally speaking, the leader has four levels - sergeant, second lieutenant, lieutenant, captain.

The sergeant controls less than 100 people, and Conway is at this level.

The second lieutenant controls more than 100 people, which is actually a fairly mature thief union, while the lieutenant controls more than 300 people, and the captain must control more than 500 people, and they are basically only a few in the city.

As for the adjutants, they are the assistants of the chiefs, the ones who really deal with the events in the organization, they take direct orders from the leaders, organize the actions, and make sure that the union runs as they intended, and the average adjutant is someone who has been in the union for a period of time, usually ten years or more, and who never intends to leave the organization.

In other words, what was being seized now was only a neighborhood bandit guild, which controlled an area of only a few streets, and its members were only gangsters, with very few warriors or thieves.

"So, can you control this little guild?"

"If the boss is not a werewolf, it is a little difficult, but if it is a werewolf, we can quickly convince them, as long as there is enough strength, but to transfer this hotel to your name, it is a little difficult, we have to deal with the officials of the docklands and the city hall." Chrissy said.

The magician looked at her and said, "I'll leave this matter to you, and do you have a smuggling channel?" ”

"My lord, we are only the downstream, midstream and upstream of the smuggling channel, and we have no way to get involved." Chrissy carefully introduced it and said,

Cities will prohibit the trade of certain goods due to social, political, religious and other factors, or impose heavy taxes on certain goods, but as long as there is demand and profit, there will be supply, and in many cases, the thieves' guilds play this role.

But smuggling is not for everyone, and smuggling is usually divided into three parts: gathering, transporting, and selling.

To collect, you need to have access to people in other cities

transportation, and is responsible for transporting smuggled goods to the city, and there are many checkpoints along the way

And the easiest to sell, any small union downstream can be part of the black market and sell these contraband.

It is not easy to establish a complete smuggling system, not only to get through these three points, but also, usually with the support of a powerful official and nobleman, otherwise it is easy to be attacked by the authorities.

"Got it, then you go ahead and remember my name, my name is Parks!" The magician said, "I want you to get things done within three days." Also, I do some magic in my room and don't let anyone bother me. ”

"Yes, Master Parks." Chrissy replied.

Parks entered the office, locked the door, and glanced at it, the office was quite good, but it was very vulgar, and the most conspicuous thing was a desk.

Sitting down in front of his chair, he pulled the drawer and found that it was locked, but he only meditated for a moment, and knocked with his hand on the whole table, and all the small mechanical traps and locks of the whole table were opened.

Pulling it open, there were all kinds of documents and records, and even more, gold and silver coins, and after a cursory look, Parks grasped something and muttered a few words, and a pale blue light and shadow enveloped the room.

At this time, he really sat down and took out a badge from his shirt, if Fang Xin was here, it would be easy to find that this badge was exactly the same as his, the badge had a leaf on it, the only difference was that Fang Xin was a gold leaf, while his was a copper leaf.

On the reverse side of the badge, it was actually half the size of a palm, and Parks closed his eyes and meditated, and the badge flashed with brilliance.

Legendary mages can create a badge that not only comes with multiple powers, but most importantly, badges of the same essence that can communicate with each other remotely - of course, they must be mages.

If Fang Xin does not use mana, he can only accept it, not send a letter.

Parks, on the other hand, can inject his magic power, write a message, and the other party will receive the relevant message, unless it is too far away, or there is an extremely powerful enchantment force to interfere, otherwise it is generally possible to contact - at least within a thousand kilometers of the achievable one.

This can already span entire continents.

Parks' expression was a little solemn, gently caressing the badge, and began to write with his heart, and on the badge, a ball of light lit up, and as Parks wrote, there was a rhythmic change of light and obscurity.

Parks' report was very careful, so it took half an hour to write, and at this time, most of his magic power was almost consumed, so he finally activated the message, a wave of magic power, and immediately launched it.

At this time, Fang Xin was drinking in an ordinary hotel.

This is also very usual, after successfully finding a job, the mercenary usually has a drink with his employer, but now, it is naturally impossible to drink with Jazz, so he drank with Fang Xin.

And this old Enlin's hotel was a place where those mercenaries used to be, and twenty people sat together, which already occupied one-third of the seats......

On the L-shaped bar of the bar, the owner Lao Enlin stood there, pouring a glass of wine for the guests from time to time for the man to deliver.

There is a special diet, a large bowl of soup made of meat and potatoes, accompanied by a large glass of ale wine, which costs one-fifth of the silver lake, for the average mercenary, what can compare to a bowl of fragrant and delicious broth and a large glass of ale?

However, according to the usual income, it is not possible to order these every time, in fact, Ashlin originally wanted to pay for it himself, but Fang Xin said that he was the captain and came to treat him according to the rules of mercenaries - 22 people, almost 5 silver Rak, this little money Fang Xin never took to heart.

After 5 silver rays, Poolie carefully took back 60 copper horns - and you can buy 3 sets of this wine and soup!

After the count, she carefully put it in her pocket, feeling that she had an obligation to settle the accounts for the captain.

The food and ale were delivered, and although Purni didn't like to drink, she took a sip of it contentedly and focused on the food in front of her.

Delicious pieces of meat and soup, paired with ale wine, are the most perfect food for the lower classes, she hasn't eaten meat for a long time, she suddenly felt extremely happy, but she didn't notice the sudden change of the captain's expression in front of her - Fang Xin touched the badge inside his clothes.
