Chapter 227: Regular Bully
Chapter 227: Regular Bully
After breakfast, Old Fleet would take the people of the family to the store that had not been used for a long time, and clean it first, which could be regarded as a preparation for the future opening.
The monk, the old baron, and Tom, the butler's son, went out together, and Carter, the old butler, parked a very rudimentary carriage at the door. The old baron also wanted to open his mouth to explain a few words like that because of the family matter, he would do it first. But Hui Gang's face was calm and he stepped up first, which caused the old man to sigh behind him, it has indeed changed a lot.
The reason for this is that the shop is indeed far away from the area near the Lake of Stars, which is the slum that I passed through when I first entered the city, and the slum in the city is actually a place where commoners and slums live together. Because of status, class, and so on.
The market and most of the exchanges were in this area, so it caused the prosperity here, and around the square close to the aristocratic area, several streets were bustling with people, and people from nearby cities and even nearby provinces came here to buy.
On the carriage, Hui Gang noticed that several people around him were slightly excited, and from what they said, they had not left their homes too far for a long time, because when the spider trading house began to encroach step by step, everyone was afraid to leave that relatively safe area, and personal safety would not be guaranteed.
The only remaining shop in the Fleet family is on the most prosperous street near the square, although this chaotic area is in the slums, but because they are relatively powerful shops, the neighborhood is still quite clean, but at a glance you can see the shops closed in the bustle.
It was the only remaining store of the Fleet family, and the surrounding merchants and clerks were obviously very surprised by Hui Gang and his party, and in the surprised eyes of these people around him, the old baron happily opened the lock and walked in
Several people insisted on not letting the monk clean the house together, presumably because Fleet had no experience in housework at all. Although everyone is extremely surprised that he has become a paladin, they must not have any extravagant hopes for anything else, and everyone must be happy to stay in peace.
Hui Gang stood outside the door, looking at the street outside, which was different from the place where civilians gathered not far away, the ground there was completely dusty dirt, and there were stone slabs underneath it, which looked much cleaner. The stores on both sides are displaying their own goods there, which is extremely popular.
However, the monk did not find that in the entire area, there is not a cloth shop, it should be said that there is only one, which is in the most prime position on this street. The façade is quite large, and the goods are also very eye-catching, and there is a pale yellow spider in the lower left corner of the store's sign.
The manager of this spider trading house is called Sarson, and he is a fat man who is almost round. His face is also white and fat, and he is very charitable, but everyone who knows Sarson on the street calls him a 'vampire pig', and everyone doesn't know what kind of relationship he has with the Thieves' Guild.
But I know that if I offend this chubby, smiling businessman, I am afraid that a large group of ruffians and hooligans will soon come to make trouble, and several newly opened merchants will be destroyed because they do not know this rule.
And on this street, you can't open a shop that deals in the same goods as him. A relative of the leader of a squadron of the City Guard opened a cloth shop here, and in less than three days the warehouse was set on fire. And no one has been bothering Sarson since then, and now everyone knows how terrible he is.
There are a few old merchants on this shopping street who know Baron Fleet's family and know what is going on with them. I saw the old baron come with the son who claimed to be the incarnate devil who had escaped from the punishment of the gods, and came back with a smile on his face.
wanted to tell the usually good old baron, Sarson, but remembering Sarson's methods, they were silent, turned their heads to busy with their own affairs, and a few timid ones even closed the door in advance.
Generally, Salson, who is the store manager, comes to the store around one o'clock in the afternoon. And in a rather wealthy carriage.
Hui Gang stood on the side of the street and watched the people come and go, thinking about the things that happened last night. He had thought that the man who had come to listen and the soldiers hiding outside were part of a group. The fight outside was very surprising to him, but naturally the more lively the fight, the better, and it had nothing to do with him.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, a horse-drawn carriage paid no attention to pedestrians and goods on the road. Swaggered in.
Sarson sat comfortably in the carriage, since being lined up by the Spider Guild to take care of the shop in Matt City. His life was extremely comfortable, and in the entire Odan Empire, among the grassroots level, the influence of the Thieves Guild was still very great. So although Sarson's usual behavior is arrogant and domineering, it is uneventful.
In order to enjoy the afternoon sun, the curtains of the carriage were drawn, and Sarson smiled at the pedestrians and residents around him who were stumbling around to avoid the carriage, and the fear and panic of others, and the kind of fear in it, made him feel very comfortable.
Suddenly, his brows furrowed, and he saw that the shop of the Fleet family had opened its door, and he had noticed this shop before, but at that time, the owner of the store had not been contacted, and it was not easy to openly occupy it. Now the owner of the house has actually reappeared, and he knows that this shop is a cloth shop.
When he reached his shop, Salson stepped down, and though he was fat like a ball, no one had ever noticed that he was not clumsy in his movements.
As soon as I saw my boss get out of the car, several clerks who were greeting customers at the door surrounded me and greeted him courteously. Sarson still had a smile on his face, nodded, walked to the inner room, grabbed a person, and with a cold look on his face, he said viciously:
"Go and find out what's going on in that shop, you're just bastards who eat white rice these days!"
The Thieves' Guild's judgment on the ability of the following financial managers is based on the amount of money handed over every month and every year.
Sarson doesn't know much about business, but he understands a truth, that is, if only one of them is doing this business, naturally the business will not be bad there, so he uses the violence in his hands to achieve his goals. The Thieves' Guild has not only assassination daggers, but also swords and spears.
The fellow who went out to inquire soon returned, and everyone around the street knew that it was the property of the Fleet family, the property of the Baron's family, which had been in decline for several years, and as for the fact that Fleet had returned to the city and made a great show of his might, because of yesterday's various reasons, the news did not circulate at all.
The news that the fellow had heard was no different from the one he had heard half a month earlier, that the estate of the noble Baron Fleet had been ruined, and that he was ready to open a cloth shop.
Hearing this, Sarson finally put his mind at ease, sat down on the sofa with his legs crossed, held a huge wine glass in his hand, took a big sip, and said with a cruel smile:
"A powerless and powerless baron who still wants to come to this street to earn money for clothes, it seems that it was a mistake not to burn down their house a few years ago. ”
The guy on the side is also Sarson's confidant, and these words will naturally not have any taboos, but instead bows down with a flattering smile on his face, and then says:
"Mr. Salson, why don't I take a few people and beat them up now, so that they don't dare to come here at all!"
Salson, who was still smiling with a relaxed smile just now, suddenly became serious and stood up. Pointing to the guy in front of him, he yelled loudly:
"How many times have I said that we are no longer robbers who plunder on the grasslands, we are businessmen, businessmen, and the next time you do this, I will screw your head off. ”
The guy on the other side looked stunned and stunned. I wondered if my boss had changed his sex, how could he say such persuasive words, but then the big fat man in front of him had a smile on his face, and said in a very funny tone:
"If you take a few men to talk to the old baron, if you don't get out of the street yourself, beat him up first, and then burn down his house, it means that we are reasonable. ”
After saying that, Salson laughed proudly, and the guy hurriedly praised this not clever joke, turned around and walked out with a few people, and while walking outside, he thought viciously in his heart: Reasonable, hum, I don't use the knife when I do it, it's reasonable.
Hui Gang was a little bored sitting at the door watching the flow of cars and horses coming and going, coming to this world, when he meditated, he was in meditation at that time, he was in meditation to cultivate his body and spirit, but this kind of boring feeling was really the first time.
The monk also knew in his heart that Fleet's consciousness was completely stimulated in this city, where it had been growing, and although it was not gradually regaining the initiative of the body, he would still do something unconsciously and subconsciously. Hui Gang knew that maybe if he calmed down and practiced the "Great Compassion and Purifying Heart Mantra" for a while, he would completely eliminate these things.
I don't know why, Hui Gang feels that he enjoys it very much.
