Chapter 202: Folk Voices
readx;? A few people returned to Huangsha City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Xiao Han came back from the side of the Giant Stone City, and the last time was a large convoy entered, and Meng Han didn't have time to see anything. This time, there were only Joey and Zhu Box around, and even Gavin was sent back to report the news, and he walked slowly along the way, and Li Jian made him see the changes in Huangsha City.
The first is the population. The current Huangsha City is no longer the small town it used to be, and its population is more than the original twins of less than 1,000 people. The wooden city that was built in a hurry last time was slowly replaced by Grace with a stone city piece by piece due to the abundance of time and manpower, and the scale was at least twice as large as the original. In terms of population, if you count the mercenaries and caravans stationed in this area, 100,000 have already been checked. Huangsha City, in this world, is already a medium-sized city.
The influence of the forbidden spell in the desert had been minimized, and Meng Han was amazed, even if he was not in Huangsha City during this time, it seemed that this place was no longer the original dry weather, and there was green grass everywhere, a vibrant scene. Obviously, it rained a lot during this time, otherwise there would not have been such a change. At the same time, it also means that there is no need for Meng Han to worry about the water source problem all the time, and under the influence of the elven forest next to it, the climate here will only improve.
Seeing this situation, Meng Han was glad that he had reached an agreement with the elven clan first. Otherwise, when the principalities around the desert show this, the idea of annexing this desert will inevitably lead to more trouble.
After staying in the desert for dozens of days, the clothes on Meng Han's body can no longer see the original color. Along with Joey and Julie, they all look gray-faced and gray-faced, walking down the street, no one can see this guy with two guards. It is the real master of Huangsha City.
It is precisely because of this that Meng Han walked on the street and was not recognized. There are many mercenaries in and out of the desert, hundreds or thousands every day, and their outfits are not inconspicuous at all. On the contrary, many people in taverns and inns frequently dragged them to stay to rest and drink, and directly regarded them as mercenaries who had just come out of the desert.
Suddenly, Meng Han really wanted to feel the life in Huangsha City for himself, he was referring to the kind of life that Grace Alice didn't need to serve him very thoughtfully, and he would open his mouth to eat and drink, but like an ordinary mercenary, he would feel the life of ordinary people in Huangsha City.
There was a good opportunity in front of him, and Meng Han told Joey Zhu Box what he meant, and the two girls naturally had no special objections. What adults like to do is an adult's business, and this is the territory of adults, and no one can limit it.
Still, Joey was smart enough to signal Julie to get ready. Although this is Meng Han's territory, if they still make the adults suffer in their own territory, it will be a great dereliction of duty for these two exclusive knights. Although the adult said that he didn't want other people to interfere with his interest, this did not prevent Joey from secretly arranging a group of people.
has been involved in the struggle at the top, and Meng Han has not paid attention to the lives of ordinary people for a long time. This time, Meng Han put down the shelf. Walked into one, not his own industry, when Feng went to drink and rest.
It's an ordinary tavern, and I don't know where the merchant opened it. Now that Huangsha City has such a large population, the tavern that Meng Han originally operated is not enough for so many people to use, and it is also cheaper for many foreign merchants.
It's daytime. It's not that there are not many people in the tavern when eating. When Meng Han entered, only one person was sitting near the window, and the other seats were empty. After a brief look, Meng Han walked to the table by the other window and sat down.
Influenced by Meng Han's tavern, it seems that all the taverns here are set up with booths and boxes. But. The place that Meng Han chose was just facing the street, and there was nothing special about it.
"Two glasses of ale!" Whatever you want!" Meng Han shouted, as loud as those bold mercenaries.
"Coming soon!" shouted at the tavern counter in the same voice. Very tasteful.
Meng Han couldn't help but feel much better when he heard this unfamiliar voice, and seeing that Joey was still standing next to him, he couldn't help but pull her and let her sit beside him. If there was one person standing all the time, it would seem too obvious and out of place here.
Soon, two keg-like glasses slammed into the table in front of them. Although it didn't smell good, this feeling seemed to be what Meng Han wanted. There are no cumbersome aristocratic etiquette, you can drink as much as you want, and you are free.
The food was very surprising to Meng Han, it was actually barbecue. Meng Han took a big sip of ale, then picked up a piece of barbecue and threw it into his mouth, as if he had the feeling of drinking beer and eating kebabs in front of the barbecue stall in his previous life. The net came out of the desert, though. Mubu didn't suffer a lot. But compared to eating peacefully, Splash Zongquan has a different taste. With the rise of eating, Meng Han couldn't help but straddle the chair with one foot, clinking glasses with Joey, and chatting with her about some of Joey's previous adventures, which was very pleasant.
"Brother, seeing that you guys are having a good time, don't you mind chatting together!" was chatting with Joey, but a voice interjected next to him. Joey had already touched the hilt of the sword intentionally or unintentionally, and this Xuan stared at the person even more closely.
Standing next to him with a large wine glass was the guy who drank alone. Meng Han didn't seem to see Joey's performance, nodded and smiled: "Sit, sit, we're friends when you're out, it's good to sit down and talk!" As he spoke, his other hand touched Joey's small hand under the table and signaled her not to be nervous. Joey also seemed to feel that this guy was not in danger, and slowly let go of the hand holding the hilt of the sword, and then the little hand was grasped by Meng Han, who continued to signal.
Neither of them seemed to expect such a change, Meng Han was slightly stunned for a moment, and immediately let go of his hand.
Joey slowly retracted his hand with a red face, pretending to hold the glass. It seemed that the movements were very natural, but the flush that appeared on her face from time to time betrayed her mood. Others only thought that Joey was a male mercenary, but unexpectedly, under the dusty face, she was a beautiful female knight.
"Did you try your luck in the desert?" The person who came was not very frightened, and he seemed to be very familiar with him, and he didn't even wait for Meng Han to answer, he immediately said to himself: "Brother, you are outdated now." Whoever still tries his luck in the desert now, if it weren't for the caravan going to the desert, who would have nothing to do and suffer this sin! I tell you, you might as well go there and line up, as long as you wait for a month or two, you will always get a chance, and that is much more cost-effective than if you go into the desert. ”
"Can you get in line?" Meng Han asked with some confusion, he didn't know how Old Tom operated, but listening to this guy's tone, it seemed that Old Tom was doing a good job.
"Of course, you're new here, right?" The other party was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked with a smile: "That silk federation was established by the city lord himself, and the person in charge was originally an old-timer in our mercenary world, it is very fair, as long as you line up, you can take your turn." ”
"But I don't have any gold coins, and I can't buy them when I get there!" Meng Han continued to ask suspiciously, chatting slowly with this unknown guy, he could also know a lot of news that he didn't know before.
"You're stupid!" The other party took a big wine glass, poured it violently, and then unceremoniously picked a piece of barbecue meat from the plate on Meng Han's table and threw it into his mouth: "Everyone is only allowed to buy silk with two gold coins, even if it is shipped out to sell, how long does it take to see the benefits of a trip?" Now there are big businessmen who are qualified to buy these silk transactions, as long as they are lined up, they can sell them to those people at a lower price, although it is not more profitable than running from a bow, but it is better to be stable. ”
Listening to this guy's words, it seems that Old Tom has indeed done a very good job, and has bought the hearts of many mercenaries with this fair qualification. Meng Han was very satisfied, but he still wanted to know something else.
"You've been here for a few days, haven't you?" Meng Han asked, and after seeing the other party nodding, he asked with a smile, "How did you remember to come here." Where birds don't lay eggs, come and mess around?"
"Birds don't lay eggs?" the other party heard the adjective Meng Han. His face changed a few times, and then he nodded: "It's really a place where birds don't lay eggs." However, it's also strange, in the past, even birds didn't want to lay eggs, but now in their lives, they are *** golden eggs!" After sighing, he took a big sip of ale, and then continued: "You don't know, this place used to be a dilapidated village when I first came, and it was not even as good as a village." Don't say it, that lord is really capable. ”
Next, there were a lot of salutes to the Lord of Huangsha TownFrom his words, Meng Han could hear that he admired himself from the bottom of his heart. At this point, Meng Han couldn't help but exchange glances with Joey beside him. Everyone loves to listen to it, especially if it comes out of someone who doesn't know them. Joey seemed to see Meng Han's pride, and couldn't help but glance at him and didn't say anything.
was chatting happily, the door of the tavern was kicked open suddenly, and then, more than a dozen big men broke in from Hulala. The tavern was the only one at their table, and it was very conspicuous. When those people saw the guy sitting and drinking opposite Meng Han, their eyes immediately lit up and they surrounded him.
"Bison, hand over the right to buy and sell silk in your hands!" A big man in the lead, without looking at Meng Han, shouted directly at the guy beside Meng Han.
It's been too busy these days, and the writing is not satisfactory. After this month, it is estimated that it will be free. You can resume two shifts, please bear with me.
