Chapter 133: Black Iron Hammer
"Young master, are we going to go out for a walk in a while?" Mia came to the Black Iron Port, where trade is prosperous, due to the export of iron ore as a leader, it has brought a large number of goods trade, merchants gathered, and there are many other supporting facilities, all kinds of shops, hotels, plus this is a viscount's mansion, the center of politics and economy.
So Mia, who just got off the boat, looked directly at the dazzled, on the way to find the hotel, if it wasn't for Ades's drag, this little girl would definitely be lost with Ades, and now she is staying, and she began to ask Ades if she wants to go out for a walk, it seems that the bustling commercial street has always been the killer of urban women.
Ades shook his head and said: "Don't go out first, I'm going crazy after half a month on the boat, I'll eat and take a bath and sleep first, and I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”
As soon as Ades said this, Mia also felt itchy and had to take a bath......
The hotel is located in a corner of the rich area of the port, relatively remote, of course, from the perspective of cost, it is a successful high-end hotel, giving people a high-end feeling in the rich area, the cost of being in the middle of nowhere is not high, and the price is even cheaper than the land price of the commercial area outside the rich area.
The hotel is not big, there are only three buildings, and Adès asked for a suite, and the price is the same as the small courtyard over there in Ambo, and it seems that the consumption here is much higher than that of Ambo.
At night, Mia was tending to rhino leather armor and weapons, and although she had not touched the sea water for so many days at sea, when the bow of the ship broke through the waves, it would create waves, and the waves would produce a lot of fine foam.
Dried by the sun and the sea breeze in an instant, these tiny powders are full of salt, which accumulates on the equipment, and if it is not maintained, it will cause damage to the equipment when the tide returns, so Adeste ordered Mia. Maintain the exposed equipment once and thoroughly clean the salt foam on the equipment.
Adès was studying the map, which showed what the captain had said was worth visiting. Adès also offered to hire a guide with a map. With a guide, you don't have to worry about getting lost until you are familiar with the environment of the Black Iron Port.
The next day, Adès and Mia went out after breakfast, and the waiter at the hotel helped them find a guide, according to Adès's request, to be honest and not need too many words. Just know how to get to the place, so the guide is older, a middle-aged man.
"Mr. Clifford, at your request, we have brought in a guide with a good reputation, who will not take guests to some messy places, and an ordinary carriage, I hope you will be satisfied. "On the way out, the waiter introduced the guide and carriage to Adès.
The guide, dressed in simple civilian clothes, saw the waiter guiding Ades and them over, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "Hello, distinguished guest. My name is Vera, and I am your guide today, and it is my pleasure to serve you. ”
Adès glanced at him. The clothes were very simple and clean, and the head and body were also clean, and he nodded, satisfied with the middle-aged guide with a little gray temples.
Ades and Mia got into the carriage, put their hoods down, and said to the guide, "Go to the Black Iron Hammer." ”
Vera sat down beside the coachman, whispered her destination, and as the coachman flicked her whip, the horse kicked and pulled the carriage out of the rich area.
It was a very ordinary semi-open carriage. Only the top of the head was covered by a canvas, and there was no covering on all sides. It is a convenient means of transportation for tourists to enjoy the scenery of the city.
Along the main road in the center of the port, the horse-drawn carriage moved slowly. Pedestrians on both sides rubbed shoulders one after another, merchants and brokers selling goods, and from time to time Mia pointed to some distinctive shops and whispered something to Adès.
Soon, they came to the small garden square in the business district, which is the most prosperous place in the whole city, and the rent of the shops near the small garden square is ridiculously expensive, and the people who can open shops here are some big power organizations or big nobles, Ades promised Mia, and when he found the blacksmith, he and Mia came here to shop around and fulfill the little maid's little wish.
The carriage turned a corner, walked half a circle around the small garden square, and walked in the direction of the west, where the bulk iron ore was traded, and it was also the location of all kinds of blacksmith shops, from which countless weapons and steel armor were produced, and then transferred to various towns and cities in the south of the Great 6.
"Woo ......" the groom tightened the reins and parked the carriage outside a very quaint blacksmith's shop, unlike other shops, there were obviously fewer pedestrians here, and while Ades was wondering, Vera came forward, "Mr. Clifford, the black iron sledgehammer has arrived." ”
Ades got out of the carriage and asked in a low voice as he stretched out his hand to pick up Mia, "Vera, why don't so many people seem to come here?"
Vera moved closer to Adès and whispered, "There is more than one dwarven blacksmith in Black Iron Harbor, and although the Black Iron Giant Hammer has been open for a long time, it has many rules, so over time, others have gone to other places." ”
"Hmm...... I see, you go in with us. Adès took Mia out of the carriage, turned to Vera and walked into the Black Iron Hammer.
There is no welcome word, let alone the courteous hospitality of the waiters, the consumption of the Black Iron Port is high, and the rent of the shops is also high, so the façade of the blacksmith shop is not large, and there is a counter when you enter the door, and there are no ten people standing in the open space opposite the counter, and the walls on both sides are full of weapons, and a young waiter in the counter is studying something, and is holding two metal ingots to look through and study.
Ades and Mia were silent, turning their heads to look at the weapons hanging on the walls, which had been manufactured for some time, and although they were regularly maintained, they could clearly find traces of the passage of time on their bodies.
After a few glances, Adès came to the front of a dwarven pickaxe, turned to the counter and said loudly, "Can you take down the weapon?"
The young waitress who was flipping over the metal ingots did not raise his head, and said, "Yes, but you should be careful, it is heavier." ”
Ades carefully took down the dwarven light pickaxe, weighed it, the standard all-steel twelve-pound dwarven light pickaxe, if it is used by the Terrans, the weight will be reduced a little, eight pounds or ten pounds are possible, don't underestimate the weight of two or three pounds, in battle, it is not a simple matter to be able to wield a weapon of more than ten pounds at all times, that is, dwarves, a race with relatively large natural strength, use such a heavy weapon.
Of course, some Terran professionals can also use weapons of more than ten pounds, but in general, the Terran is not a race that dominates by strength, and the ability to learn and reproduce is the reason why the Terran can dominate the big 6. (To be continued)
