Chapter 11: Bogdanor

Although the common currency of the Bogdano continent is gold, silver, and copper, due to the different units of measurement used by the major kingdoms and principalities, and the different techniques of minting currency, the currency exchange ratio of the entire Bogdano continent also fluctuates greatly.

For example, under normal circumstances, a glass of rye wine is about 1 copper coin, and a piece of brown bread is about 2 copper, which is of course the price of the currency of the Nader Kingdom.

If it is a currency minted by a small principality, the price may rise by 20%, and if it is a currency secretly minted by some small lords, it may rise by more than 50%, or even more.

The reason for this is that some lords and nobles mint money privately for personal gain, often with low gold and silver content, so it is also called private coinage.

As for the continent of Bogdanor, the first-class currency is the currency issued by the major kingdoms and free city-states, the second-class currency is the currency issued by some principalities, and the third-class currency is the privately minted currency.

But the most powerful currency is the legendary Wizard Gold Coins, which are the currency that wizards trade with each other, and each Wizard Gold Coin is as beautiful as a work of art, but unfortunately this currency only exists in legends.

"Forget it, it's for nothing anyway, it's better than nothing. Barron put the silver in his purse, then picked up the kettle on the table and took another sip. A taste that is even more spicy than kale hits my throat.

"Stronger than kale, good wine!" said Barron, who had finished drinking it, and then lay down in bed satisfied.

This is the first time that Barron has slept in a bed alone since the crossing, and there is no snoring and sweat smell of the escort boss, which is so refreshing!

............................................................

The next morning, when Baker woke up in a daze, he looked around in confusion.

"I thought I had a dream last night that Barron's stinky boy actually became a junior knight, hey, it must be that I've been training too hard lately!" Baker patted his head as he walked out of the room.

Walking to the hall of the tavern, I was just about to go and see what I had eaten this morning, when I saw several guards and men of the Chamber of Commerce hurrying out of the tavern. Baker thought something was wrong and hurried to follow.

After he got out of the tavern, he found that in the open space outside the tavern where the original chamber of commerce convoy was parked, dozens of people formed a semicircle, but there was no sound, only the sound of "bell, bell, ding" appeared from time to time on the opposite side of the crowd.

The few guards who ran in front of him saw it, and they also silently joined the semicircle in front, and the crowd in front of them saw that someone came in, and they also silently let go of a gap, allowing the latecomers to blend in smoothly.

Baker was confused, and when he squeezed into the crowd, he realized that it was a battle between two people, but he couldn't think of who was fighting against whom, and he was able to attract so many people to watch the battle.

"Bell!" came another sound of swords striking each other, and in the open space in the middle of the crowd, the two figures quickly separated after a brief contact, each looking for the next opportunity.

It was only when Baker discovered that the two people fighting against him were actually the captain of the escort team, Pande, and the team member Barron.

"Did I dream and haven't woken up yet?" Baker couldn't help but rub his eyes with his hand.

Unfortunately, this is not Baker's dream, but reality. Barron, a newcomer who was once and once in the Escort team, is now the one who can fight against Captain Pande.

The scene that happened last night was in Baker's mind again, and sure enough, it wasn't a dream.

Later, Baker discovered that Barron, who had just been promoted to junior knight, was in a state of suppression in the battle with captain Pande.

However, Barron's excellent awareness and occasional brilliant moves defused Pande's offensive made it impossible for Pande to win despite his overwhelming advantage.

Even as time went on, Barron's defense became more and more solid, and he was able to counterattack once or twice from time to time, a discovery that surprised Baker even more.

If Barron's promotion to junior knight is just enviable, now a one-on-one training with Pande, and occasionally showing no less combat skills than captain Pande, really stunned everyone present.

Although Pande is only a junior knight, the same as Barron, but he has been promoted to a junior knight as early as 8 years ago, if it weren't for his age, he was seriously injured when he was a mercenary in the past and left sequelae, otherwise the intermediate knight would not have no hope of promotion.

However, although Pande was not promoted to an intermediate knight, he had accumulated rich combat experience from his mercenary career for many years, making Pande now one of the best among the junior knights.

But in the face of such a strong opponent, when Barron and Pande fight, they can actually fight stronger and stronger?!

"Haha, refreshing, it's been a long time since I've been so refreshing. While Baker was still thinking, Barron and Pande had already finished sparring.

"Hey, I'm still old, but I can't compare to you young people. Pande handed the sword in his hand to the onlookers, and then walked with Barron as he walked towards the tavern, followed by a group of people a few steps behind, and Barron also put away his cavalry sword, which was his trophy, much better than the original short sword.

"The captain has won the award, and I learned a lot from today's sparring. "Barron doesn't have the slightest exaggeration, and he's really learned a lot in this sparring.

"Haha, just learn from each other, you are very talented in combat, how to say it......" Pande is not easy to describe Barron's fighting style for a while, "It should be said that your combat awareness is very good, and the combat skills you occasionally show are also exquisite, but your combat experience is not very much, which leads to many of your ideas not being realized, and you feel a little constrained." ”

Barron didn't expect Pander to see his problem, but he was not willing to say it, so he could only say in a hesitant manner:

"Maybe it's still too little experience in combat, especially after being promoted to junior knight, I haven't fought seriously, so sometimes I can't grasp the strength well. ”

"Possibly, so be it. Pan De pondered for a moment and said: "Now the goods of the caravan, I arranged for someone to transport them to the special warehouse in the trading market early this morning. ”

"I'll be with old Jonny to deal with some things next, and I'll be in Ending City for about 10 sunsets, and although I may not have time during the day, I still have time every morning. ”

"The clearing here is now vacant again, and as I have already told the tavernkeeper, this clearing has now been lent to our escort as a training ground. ”
