Chapter 646: Teleportation (Part II)
The Kingdom of Mercum. Hill City
It is a small city, estimated to have a population of less than 10,000, with a city gate road paved with granite strips of stone.
In the small town, there are no grand buildings and no planning, so now the houses are crowded and the streets are narrow, but there is a trace of the vicissitudes of time.
Hot, the only word, can describe the weather at this time.
A huge ball of fire, so brilliant that it blinded the eyes, hung high in the sky, and the air was about to burn under the shining light.
It was just after morning, and it was still some time before noon, and by noon the sun had risen above people's heads, and it was still a little hotter.
This kind of cloudless weather, in addition to bringing people a blue sky, but also brings people sweat.
Although it had just rained heavily a few days ago, the young grass on both sides of the road was about to dry out in this sunny weather.
"It's really hot in this weather!"
In fact, it was just early summer, and people were sighing.
Such an early summer has already brought such a hot weather, if it really comes to the height of summer, what will it be like?
You don't have to feel it, just thinking about it is already daunting.
"Fruit! Fruit that has just been taken from Qingshui Town! A copper coin is a cool and delicious!" A crisp young man's cry sounded from the other side of the road.
In front of people's eyes, there is a large road leading to the gate of Yamaoka Castle, not far away, and the yellow dirt is hot and dry in the sunlight.
On the road, there are many citizens who come and go, most of them are transporting goods in and out of the city.
The price of the carriage is really expensive, most of the people are not able to afford it, and they are reluctant to spend money to rent it, although they are tired and red at this time, but they still choose to walk, walk, stop and stop.
Somewhat different from them, in front of the group, there was a carriage, driving back and forth on this road without speed or slowness.
The carriage was pulled by two inferior horses, so it went very slowly.
No matter how slow it was, it was also a carriage, and when they passed by the crowd, many people who walked cast envious glances.
Not only is there a lot of space in this carriage, but also, what was supposed to be an uncovered carriage, was artificially made into a simple carport, and in this weather, it is really enjoyable to be able to sit in a carriage with a shed.
The weather is sunny, but it is not stuffy inside, as long as you stay in a place away from the light, you will feel cool!
"Fruit! Fruit that has just been taken from Qingshui Town! A copper coin! Cool and delicious!" The young man was sitting in the carriage just now, shouting incessantly.
Beside him, there was also a middle-aged man, whose face was somewhat similar to that of the young man, and at first glance it was father and son.
"Father, take a break, I'll catch the car. The young man shouted for a while, and when he saw that his father was a little tired from driving, he was busy talking.
The middle-aged man looked at the young man and nodded: "Okay, I'll sell, you be careful to catch the car, slow down, don't hit people, this year's business is over, I will donate money to send you to the church to learn accounting, usually you work hard, learn to settle accounts, I will send you to the acquaintance of the firm, and then rise to the position of purchasing, I will rest assured." ”
"Father, I have followed Uncle Galle, in charge of transcribing, and have begun to learn to settle accounts, don't worry, I will work hard!" the young man moved his body, took the whip from his father's hand, and sat down in the position of the chariot.
Running the carriage, the boy was very skilled.
"Fruit!, fresh fruit!" the middle-aged man shouted.
In their carriage there were seven or eight large baskets, filled with fresh fruits, each with a lid made of a flexible and sturdy rattan woven from a large basket on which the middle-aged man sat because he had no place to sit.
"Boss, what kind of fruit are they?" Finally, the passer-by who was on the road couldn't hold back his thirst and asked.
"Oh, it's all alabakes, snowflakes from Mr. Case's estate, sweet with one bite, one copper coin, and one can be eaten half full. The middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Alabaster from Mr. Case's estate...... Okay, get me one. The passer-by thought for a moment, then took out a copper coin from the pocket he was carrying at his waist and handed it over.
The middle-aged man took out a large fruit from the basket next to him, and gave it to the man with a smile while taking the money.
They are all washed and very clean fruits, shining in the sun, crystal clear, a little rubbing a few times, you can eat directly.
A sip of poof, and the juice flows out. That kind of cold and refreshing feeling made passers-by applaud again and again.
"Boss, I want one too. ”
"Bring me two too. ”
As soon as someone took the lead, the number of people who bought fruit naturally began to increase.
This fruit is big, thirst-quenching and hunger-resistant, and even at a time when the demon plague has just ended, ordinary citizens can still afford to buy it.
The middle-aged man was in charge of buying and selling fruits, and there were many people buying them at one time, so the teenager simply stopped the car first.
It wasn't until half an hour later that the group of people who bought fruit gradually disappeared.
The middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead, counted the coins he received, and said to the young man, "Let's go, get to the city before noon, and this cart of fruit will be sold." ”
"Yes, I see, father. The boy answered, and scolded the two horses in front of him to move.
But I don't know why, the two horses were walking well before, but at this time, the four hooves were as if they were nailed to the ground, and they didn't move.
"Go, go!" the boy urged several times, but when he saw that the two horses still did not move, he was not only a little annoyed, but raised his whip and was about to pull it down.
"This one, don't fight yet. A gentle voice, from far and near.
Not only the young man, but even his father couldn't help but turn around, and saw a young man walking quickly from behind them.
The young man was wearing a high-quality robe, and he looked no more than twenty years old.
It's just that when they walked in, the father and son seemed to smell a kind of blood.
It's just that after looking carefully, they didn't find anything wrong with this young man, so the two looked at the young man's face suspiciously.
"I'm sorry, I just wanted to call you, but it was too far away, so I asked the two of them to wait for me. The young man approached them, smiled, and showed his white teeth.
"Please, the two of them?" the boy looked at him in surprise, and then at his horse, though he didn't say it, but the meaning was already obvious.
With two horses, it's still so far away, how can you please?
"You're a druid, aren't you?" said the boy's father.
The young man smiled: "That's right, I'm a druid, I've just driven a short distance, I'm really tired from walking, I want to give you a ride, so I'll go to the city and pay you a silver coin." ”
"Druid!" When he heard that the young man opposite was really a druid, the young man suddenly exclaimed in surprise, and then he asked with a smile, "Do you really want to give me a silver coin?"
That's the money you need to sell twenty fruits, twenty, and only fifty in a basket.
"Cassirer!" his father stopped him, and said to the young man, "I am glad that you would like to sit with us." ”
As he spoke, he tidied up the place where he was sitting, moved out a small place, and said a little embarrassedly: "Don't dislike the simple car." ”
"Hehe, how could it be?" said the young man with a smile, got into the car with quick movements, and sat next to the middle-aged man.
Strange to say, as soon as he got into the carriage, the two horses pulling the carriage moved.
"My lord, what do you call it?" Seeing this situation, the middle-aged man asked more and more respectfully, although the middle-aged man was not an ordinary lord, but a free citizen in the city, he still made a living from land and agriculture, and he was most in awe of a professional like a druid.
"I'm Romon, you don't have to be restrained. Luo Meng smiled and said, coming out of the portal, you are here, let's take a ride!
Hearing Romon say this, the middle-aged man really relaxed a lot in the next chat.
"Monsieur Romon, have you just come from somewhere else?" asked the young man suddenly, after a moment's conversation.
Romon nodded: "Yes, I just came back from a long way away, and I am not very clear about the current situation. ”
"Well, I have never heard of what I heard from Mr. Romon just now, and I think that Mr. Romon must have just returned from a far away place, but even so!" the young man scratched his head and said with some puzzlement, "Why don't you seem to know anything about the celebrations these days?"
"Celebrations?"
"Yes, the demonic plague of the whole continent has ended, and from today onwards, the city will celebrate for three days! Not only here, but also other places, it will be celebrated!" The young man said excitedly: "That's why our fruit business is so good, everyone is happy, and they are willing to pay for some fruit." ”
"Demonic Calamity...... Is it already over?" Romon was stunned when he heard this.
However, he immediately smiled: "A few days ago, I went into the forest to collect plants, so I didn't know, but this is good news!"
Luo Meng's words did not arouse suspicion, and both of them showed joy: "Yes, the demon disaster is over, and everyone is finally relieved." ”
“...... You are selling fruits, bring me a few too, and I will celebrate too. Romon said with a smile.
In fact, there were originally fruits in the space of Shennongjiao, but this time, all those that were not harvested were reimbursed.
"Okay, Mr. Romon, this is the fruit produced by the famous Mr. Case manor nearby, he is a druid like you, and he is also a fifth-level master, and the fruit he cultivates is very easy to sell!" said the young man with great interest, and hurriedly took out a snowflake fruit and gave it to Romone.
Romon took a bite and thought it was good.
