297. Letters of recommendation
Although it was a bit of a pity that he didn't see orcs and lizardmen in the tavern's auction room, Surdak didn't return to the tavern with the huge wine glass hanging from the door.
When I returned to the hotel, there was only a candle lit at the front desk, and the innkeeper was dozing off at the front desk, and the hall was very quiet, perhaps the footsteps of Surdak woke up the half-asleep innkeeper.
When he saw Surdak walking in from outside, he quickly straightened up and greeted Surdak with high spirits.
When Surdak went upstairs, he found that his stomach was still growling, and he thought that he had gone out for most of the night, and he had eaten nothing but a glass of ale, so he asked the innkeeper what was left in the kitchen, and the innkeeper recommended Surdak a honey kebab and chicken rolls, but it was a little cold.
At this time, Surdak didn't care about this, and directly asked the innkeeper for a copy.
"Tuk Tuk"
There was a knock on the door, and Surdak came out of the bathroom in his shirt, and when he opened the door, he saw that he was actually dressed in a single body. The proprietress in the pajamas stood outside the door with a dinner plate, looking at her with a look full of provocation. Funny, Surdak thought about the innkeeper in the hall downstairs, retracted his gaze and took the plate, and casually took out two silver coins from his pocket and stuffed them into the palm of the proprietress .
He quickly spat out a thank you.
"Knock"
The oak door was closed by Surdak casually, since he decided to use this inn in good condition as a place to settle in Highlandsa City in the future, then he didn't want to complicate the relationship between these people too much, and although the boss was quite charming, and his skin was usually well maintained, he was not the kind of beautiful girl who was full of youth, and he was not very attractive to Surdak.
Surdak brought the plate to the round table on the balcony, where he could see the street lamps lit up in the garden square.
It was late, but there were still people coming out of the quiet part of the garden in pairs.
The next morning, Surdak had breakfast in the inn, and left the inn as if he were out of sight, avoiding the hostess's resentful gaze of cannibalism.
When Surdak came to the underground market, the giant guard at the door did not stop him, according to the caravan leader, these sulfur could have been sold to the logistics department of Highland City, and the Green Empire officially had a uniform purchase price for sulfur, but Surdak did not go there, but habitually ran to the underground trading market, he can be said to be familiar with setting up a stall in the hall this time, and a hard cowhide was full of large and small light yellow sulfur ore.
These sulfur ores are all in his magic waist bag, I have to say that this kind of magic items for space storage are quite convenient to use, but a little expensive, but it is definitely worth the money, all the sulfur mines brought this time are in the magic waist bag.
I thought that these sulfur mines would not be as popular as those magical beast ingredients, but just after putting the sulfur mines on the table for a short time, many magicians came to inquire about them, and they expressed great interest in these sulfur mines, and Surdak raised the price quoted by the caravan leader by a little more, so that it could be used to pay taxes in the underground trading market, and there was also a slight surplus.
The people who came to inquire were all magicians in magic robes.
Usually you can rarely see magicians in the streets and alleys, but I didn't expect them to gather here, these magicians will buy more or less as long as they ask the price, and it is in this atmosphere of free trade that Surdak quickly sells out the sulfur ore.
This time, Surdak brought a whole three wooden boxes of sulfur ore, almost packed the magic waist to the full, and weighed about eight hundred pounds after being put out, in exchange for nearly twenty-six gold coins, but then Surdak bought five more water gathering magic scrolls and three fire gathering magic scrolls in the underground trading hall, but these eight scrolls cost nearly 5 gold coins, and the rest of the money had to pay for those long leather boots and other payments, the old village chief hoped to be able to sell a part of the sulfur mine, and use the money to pay the bricklayers and laborers, Now that I count it, I may not be able to sustain myself for a month.
If I had known that this would have been the case, I would have brought more sulphur mines, Surdak thought to himself.
Leaving the underground trading market, Surdak went directly to the Casment Mansion to find Karl, but unfortunately Karl was not at home, and the old housekeeper told Master Surdak Karl that he happened to be out, and if there was anything to find him, it was best to come back tomorrow, maybe he could leave a note to make a meeting time.
Surdak then remembered that visiting aristocratic families often had to write a letter in advance, which belonged to the social etiquette of nobles, but Surdak forgot about it, and hurriedly wrote a letter to Carl on the spot with the help of the old butler.
The letter said that he would be returning to the village of Wo tomorrow morning and hoped to have a drink together before returning to the village.
After leaving this letter, Surdak found the Knights in the corner of the city of Highlanza with a vague memory, the old knight still wearing only half-body armor was still sleeping alone with a pipe in his mouth, lying on the office chair in the small building, he saw Surdak push the door and enter, and asked him unsurprisingly, "Have you figured out where you are going?" ”
Surdak nodded respectfully and said, "Think about it, it's at the Knight Academy of Highlandsa." ”
The old knight laughed and said: "At this time, it can only be the Knight Academy of Highlandsa, it has been almost a month since the school started, and other Knight Academies will not look at the face of the old man, through your admission application, if you want to go to other academies, you must at least ...... next spring."
The old knight said, but his hand did not stop, he took out a piece of parchment with words printed on it from the rolling cabinet, just asked Surdak to write his name on the parchment, and then stamped a red oil seal on the parchment, and checked the identity information on the badge of the knight of Surdak's reserve, and then waved Surdak to leave.
"Within half a month, I must report to the Knight Academy, otherwise this letter of recommendation will also be invalid, and next time I apply for the admission application form, I won't be so easy to talk to!"
Before Surdak left, the old knight admonished him.
Surdak hurriedly saluted the old knight, and then said that he would definitely report to the knight academy, and then left the knights.
Taking advantage of the afternoon, Surdak rushed to the tannery and took fifty pairs of thick-soled leather boots that had been changed overnight, ran to the blacksmith's shop to buy ten black iron pickaxes, and remained busy until the afternoon before returning to the hotel.
