Chapter 17: The Strange Ghost (Part II)
"This ......" Luna and Xue Yuan were both speechless, thinking that this was a special method of the strange space. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Winter nights in Copenhagen can freeze to death, and you signed a contract with me to find a place to shelter from the cold, and you have to follow my arrangements for a day of work unconditionally. As a result, you want to regret it now? Where in the world is such a good thing! Charlotte sneered, "It doesn't matter if you choose not to fulfill your contract, because according to the laws of the Kingdom of Denmark, you will be assigned to hard labor, and you may be assigned to the Royal Third Army as cannon fodder." On the one hand, he only worked as a temporary worker in the militia for a day, but on the other hand, he was put into hard labor and could not be free for eternity, which one do you choose? ”
"Promise him first."
A woman's voice appeared in Xue Yuan's mind. He turned to look at Luna, and saw that her lips were closed and she didn't look like she was talking.
"Don't look around, I'm Luna, and I'm talking to you through telekinesis. Charlotte's words couldn't be believed, if it was just to be a temporary worker in the militia for a day, he didn't need to go to such a big time. But the current situation is pressing, so let's agree to come down first,"
"Do you still need to say that?" Xue Yuan was a little impatient, but he still chose to do it obediently.
"That's of course a choice to fulfill the contract I signed with Mr. Charlotte, and my companion was just joking. After all, we're from the South, and we're really not very familiar with things like ghosts. Xue Yuan behaved very submissively.
"That's good, I also think you two have a lot of potential to tell you so much, after all, Mr. Durant's militia is not collected by everyone." Charlotte was more satisfied with Xue Yuan's attitude this time, "Since there is no problem, let's continue to go, finish the formalities as soon as possible, and start work as soon as possible." ”
The space on the second floor was very large, and Xue Yuan felt that the area should be more than the hall on the first floor. But it's still empty and dilapidated. Charlotte was obviously not the first time she had come, and he was familiar with the two of them going around with them.
"Mr. Charlotte, why can't you see anyone else in this big place?" Xue Yuan asked with some curiosity.
"There used to be a lot of people here." Charlotte didn't seem to be in a bad mood, explaining to the two as she walked.
"When I was young, there were three steps and one post, and five steps and one sentry. At that time, the militia was rich, not only with direct funding from the royal family, but also with the exclusive control of the market in the western city of Copenhagen. Charlotte looked a little emotional, and the words became more and more.
"Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and after the new king ascended the throne, he said that in order to implement a tight fiscal policy, it was necessary to streamline the organization and reduce the number of personnel. The militia group, which originally had 600 formal formations, was cut to only three. As you know, royal grants are given on a budget-based basis...... And Copenhagen's West Market, which is an important source of income for the militias, is also getting worse day by day - since the North and East markets were established, the shops in the West Market have basically moved away, and there are not even a few small vendors. So Mr. Durant can't help it, because he has no money and can only cut everything he can, so at the moment there are only him and two guards in this red mansion - because the militia is all three of them. Charlotte said and shook her head, "Alas, it's also a tragedy that the militia has gotten mixed up like this." ”
"Usually forget it, the militia can directly outsource the task of transporting supplies to a small caravan, and you can make a difference. But before Christmas, the strange spirits of the land of eternal winter in the north of Cyprus will come across the frozen Greenland Sea, and there will be no caravans willing to take over the delivery of supplies...... Okay, without further ado, we're here. ”
They came to a door that was painted red, and it looked a little tattered because of the mottled paint.
