1082. Every city has a shadow
Many of the people in the village left the city of Highlandsa for the first time, starting from the city of Highlandza, passing through Hagasburg, Constantinople, Ruyt, and finally through the portal in the central square to this strange plane.
Seeing that the starry sky was no longer shining overhead, everyone realized that they had completely left their hometown, the city of Highlandza.
A bald uncle looked a little nervous, he wiped the pocket of his leather apron with his hand, sat in the carriage and asked:
"Charlie, how long do you think we're going to be here before we get back to Highlandsa?"
Charlie and Luke walked at the front of the convoy, turning back as they went:
"We're here to do bricklayer work, we'll go back when we're done, don't worry, Duck introduced us, it won't deduct our wages, and it seems to be a simple wall cut, isn't that what we're best at!"
The bald uncle's face was still a little tangled, and he said:
"Charlie, do you think we can go back to harvest wheat at harvest festival this time?"
At this time, another village bricklayer beside him laughed and sarcastically said to the bald uncle:
"Just your small piece of wheat field, your two wives can harvest it in half a day, do you say you want to harvest wheat or pay the public grain when you go back? I said Santo, since you married your second wife, the whole person has become lazy, and now our life has changed for the better, do you think that every day when you lie in Vol Village, the copper plate can fall from the sky? ”
The bald uncle Santo squeezed out a sneer on his face: "Hehe, I just said it casually, I heard that the battle here has just ended, and the fight is still a demon ......"
The convoy has come to the main street of the city, because it is late at night, only the shops near the central square are still open, and a group of people stand on the opposite side of the street at the exit of the square, and when they see someone coming out of the square, they will come up like a swarm of flies and whisper:
"Hey, friend, do you need a guide?"
Those who are familiar with these guides usually whisper:
"No, you don't!"
"I know Lu ......"
Or simply ignore them.
Look at the direction and go straight ahead, walk out along the street, ask for directions at random, and you won't spend any more money.
Charlie and Luke, the villagers who came out of the mountains, looked at the dazzling array of goods in the store, their eyes were a little insufficient, and their eyes would flash a novelty when they saw everything......
In the eyes of these guides, this expression was not simple, nor was it honest, but a fat sheep that sparkled like gold.
Obviously, the villagers didn't realize that they had been targeted by a group of guides, and the only thing they felt sorry for was that the group of people seemed to be together, and the matter of leading the way could not be charged per person.
……
Harry is a guide, and he usually wears a brown leather waistcoat, tulle bloomers, and pointed scalp boots on his feet, which is fashionable in Mucuso.
He had a scar on his forehead, which had been bitten by the caveman, and although the wound had healed now, the hideous wound was like a centipede coiled on the top of his head, and it looked very scary, so he would wear a shabby melon skin hat every day when he went out.
At this moment he saw these craftsmen of the city of Highlandsa, hundreds of men and twenty carriages, such a large group of people standing stupidly at the exit of the square, and the other guides hesitated and did not go over.
Harry looked at the sky, spat a mouthful of phlegm on the ground, and walked towards the young man in the opposite direction.
Valley pumping
"Where are you going? I'm a native of Mucuso, and I can take you wherever you want to go. Harry said to the young man in a posture that he knew all the planes I knew.
The leading young man was none other than Charlie, and he was with Luke, discussing how to place more than 300 bricklayers, and when it was daybreak, he was trying to contact Surdak.
"No, someone will pick me up."
Charley often leads a group of villagers to build villas for nobles in the city of Highlandsa, and he is not prepared to take care of this ruffian city guide.
"Waiting for someone? Park your carriage on the side of the street, there is a lot of traffic on this street at night, don't get in the way of others. Harry pointed out with some familiarity.
Luke didn't say anything, but he didn't say anything about letting twenty four-wheeled carriages stop on the side of the road.
"I heard that a plane war just broke out here?" The bald uncle Santo couldn't help but ask Harry.
Harry was afraid that no one would pay attention to him at this time, and when he saw someone talking, he squinted his eyes and said: "Yes, it's been almost two months, but the war ended last month, and now the whole Mukuso is engaged in construction, and you are ......"
Santo said very casually, "We are bricklayers from the city of Highlandsa, and we are here to find a job. ”
Luke, on the side, tried to pull Uncle Santo aside so that his mouth could be closed.
Unexpectedly, Harry stretched out his hand to stop him, Harry was like a loach blocking Luke, and then said to Uncle Santo:
"We are short of bricklayers with craftsmanship, who brought you here, I said you might as well follow me, the main sewer line is being repaired on Central Street, I know the foreman there, if you want to go, I can help you introduce, the commission is one out of ten."
He saw Uncle Santo's eyes flickering, and he thought a little proudly: it seems that they should not have received a job beforehand, so he really ate this big fat sheep.
didn't wait for Uncle Santo to agree, and took the initiative to shout: "Okay, okay, it's decided, don't rob me, I've already talked to this group of friends in Highlandsa City, don't come over and make trouble." ”
In the latter half of the sentence, Harry shouted to the other city guides who gathered around.
When the guides heard Harry say this, they cursed quietly and left.
Harry took Uncle Santo's hairy hand, pointed to a dark alley opposite, and said enthusiastically: "I'll take you to find a place to live first, it is definitely the cheapest rent accommodation in the whole Mukuso, the house is clean and tidy, not sleeping in bunks, and each person has a single bed." ”
"Thank you very much for your kindness, we don't need a guide, someone will pick me up." Charlie walked over at this time, pulled Uncle Santo away and said.
"Are you hillbillies playing tricks on me? Come here for me, all of you! Harry's originally grinning face became a little hideous, and he shouted across the street,
Suddenly, the city guides who were waiting across the street to solicit business stood up and gathered towards Harry.
This is a means of bluffing people, usually you help me, I help you, give each other a strong voice, and the bully is the timid and afraid of the vegetable bag.
"Do you think we Mukuso people can be teased casually?" Harry now held his chest high, pointed a finger at Charley's chest, and scolded him fiercely:
"I kindly gave you hillbillies a job, not only did you not give me information fees, but you didn't even thank you, so forget it, after all, everyone is here to build Mukuso, but you actually want to play tricks on me. Do you look down on us locals? ”
Charlie was pushed back by Harry......
"You said that if a hellhound suddenly came out of this city, it would eat you to the point that there would be no bones left."
With that, Harry ripped off his leather vest and exposed his chest hair, with a necklace made of Cerberus teeth hanging from his chest, and threatened Charlie viciously.
