Section 9: Expedition (Medium)

"Mr. Townsend really understands the essence of a businessman. Si is still the same, with a polite face that can't see the emotion: "I have a hunch that you will become a very successful businessman in the future." ”

"You're probably mistaken about this, I'm just a customer, I don't pursue a deal. Townsend refused to accept the other party's flattery: "If this business can be done, of course it is good." I don't have any regrets if I can't do it, and climbing a mountain is not a big deal. ”

"There may be some misunderstanding among the guests, but it's not that I'm coming forward to despise you, it's that Joan can't keep her mind in front of the food. You should understand this situation, right?" Si continued to maintain the politeness on his face, so that Townsend couldn't guess her true intentions: "These delicacies can be regarded as inferior and low-grade goods, but there are not many items that can be exchanged, may I ask the guest, what do you want to exchange?"

"I don't know what you have in your hands, and Joan hasn't given a list," since others are so upright, Townsend is not very aggressive, so he spreads his hands: "So I don't know what I can get in exchange." ”

"If that's the case, why don't you tell us about your recent plans or encounters, I know some of the guests' past and can recommend something according to your needs, at least to make sure you can use them at the moment. ”

"It's very considerate and I'm willing to accept it. Townsend couldn't help nodding: "Recently, I don't have any other plans, I just want to take a boat to a thousand miles away to make a piece of land down." ”

"Inland?" Si was not surprised at all: "Or the West Coast?"

"The west coast, probably in the Quelsa Plains. Townsend said: "Once you start, you don't know when it's going to go." ”

"It turns out that the guests have already established the determination to forge ahead, so I wish you a successful start. Si thought for a moment: "If it is not presumptuous, I would like to ask if you have enough people under your command? If you are lacking, I can introduce a mercenary to you, even if the cost is offset by these inferior goods." ”

"War is the work of a large group of people, and I play the kind of time and place, and the role of a mercenary is very limited, let alone the problem of mutual familiarity and cooperation. Townsend replied, "So the mercenary is not suitable, do you have any other suggestions?"

"It seems that the guest is full of confidence in himself, in this case, presumably the guest will go to the battlefield and fight with all his might?"

"Indeed, the essence of this operation is that if it is not successful, it will be over. Townsend laughed heartily: "Either I'll send it, or I'll be finished, and there will be no other result." ”

"Mr. Townsend, your temperament seems to have changed a little just now...... Si looked at Townsend intently, "You seem to have suddenly become a little more free-spirited, and you have become a little more worldly." ”

"You're right, I found that I seemed to think too much and do too little. Townsend nodded and admitted: "It's better to be a man, it's better to be unrestrained! It's okay to pretend to be a grandson, but if you keep pretending like this, you will really become a grandson!"

"Understood, since you have made your decision, Mr. Townsend, then I will introduce you to the following products. With a flick of his wrist, three heavy, boxy blocks of ice slid through the corners of the ice cave and came to rest beside Townsend. Si's fingers flicked again, and the opaque ice cracked through it with a "bang", revealing the contents inside.

When countless Xiaoice pieces were scattered on the ground, Townsend raised his eyes and his gaze suddenly changed. Because what he saw was three complete, brand-new pieces of armor. This is an all-encompassing type of leather armor, the head, body, limbs and even the neck are protected, and the joints are treated very well, so you can see that it is not an ordinary product.

On closer inspection, Townsend found that there was something wrong with the three pairs of armor, with different shapes and colors, or rather a completely new base armor - no additional armor inlaid with metal on the surface, but with obvious holes, hooks and locks of unknown purpose, and not even decorative patterns.

"Guest, allow me to introduce you, all three. Si pointed to the silver-white armor on the left and said, "This one is called the Sage Armor." Then she turned her finger away, pointed to the golden armor on the right side, and said, "This pair is called the Brave Armor." ”

"What about the pure black in the middle?" asked Townsend.

"The name of the armor is not important, it is the maker who gave it, and the key is the function of the armor. Si replied softly: "These three pairs of armor were born at the same time, and the raw material is the skin of a group of deep-sea beasts, and the age of the beasts is different, so the color is different. Silver is the lightest and softest, golden yellow is the heaviest and strongest, and black is moderate in weight and defense. ”

"Seems like there's something missing?" asked Townsend, turning his head.

"If it were complete, all three pairs of armor wouldn't be in front of you. Si smiled: "This is the base armor, there should be metal armor pieces on it, and some gems and other things." But when it was mortgaged to me, the other party couldn't come up with other accessories, and I couldn't force the other party to find them. But even so, they're better than normal plate armor. ”

"If you accidentally get touched by the original owner, won't that expose you?" Townsend was also laughing: "At that time, you can't blame me, I'm afraid of pain, if someone catches me and asks, I will definitely explain." ”

"I'm reassured Mr. Townsend, and, no one, for sure, knows that the armor has anything to do with me. ”

"Why?"

"Believe me, guest, you won't be happy with the answer. Si's words said: "After all...... Something hundreds of years ago. ”

"Do you give me all three pairs of armor?" Townsend was also very good, and immediately changed the subject and asked, "Change these fish?"

"Equivalent exchange. Si nodded: "Do you accept the guest?"

"No problem!" Townsend readily agreed, it would be a fool not to agree: "The fish are all yours!"

Si stretched out his hand and wiped it down, and the ice cubes placed next to the delicious fish immediately cracked, and the pairs of small fish frozen in it immediately came to life and swam in the air. They circled around Si's body a few times, bobbing their heads and tails in a happy wayβ€”Townsend was not at all surprised that he was accustomed to strange events here.

"There's a dark river down there, let's go, don't be found by Joan. Si's finger pointed to the ice wall behind him, and several pairs of small fish swam over there, directly through the ice wall and disappeared, no different from swimming in the water.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Townsend had already pulled out the dagger over there and tried the armor, and the final result was very satisfying to him - the dagger made him bend, but the surface of the armor was a small hole at most, and it would slowly recover!

"Because I am satisfied, I solemnly promise you that there will be no more live fish in the future goods. Townsend threw away the dagger and clapped his hands: "The next goods, let's exchange with you, right?"

"It's not a matter of work, so I'll do it. Si smiled and nodded.
