Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Mammon Family
The second piece is six folds?!, such a familiar business method......
Well, I have to admit that the person who made this thing must have wanted to tell the world that he was a traverser. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Maybe he wanted to attract other time-travelers to find a game he had set up?
Thinking about it, Hong Qi tried his best to think about the relevant information, but because there was not much news in front of him, he could only stop everything at the stage of conjecture.
Never mind...... Let's go eat first, and think about it later.
After deciding to make a decision, Hong Qi stopped paying attention to the thing, and at the same time, he and Doug also found a popular restaurant nearby to solve the problem of Chinese food.
A restaurant called Ms. Sunny was almost 90% full because it was lunchtime, and all that was left was the VIP area on the second floor and the reserved seats.
As a rich penguin, Hong Qi naturally sat in the VIP area, and then the waiter in charge of leading the seat asked Hong Qi.
"Distinguished guest, welcome to Ms. Sunny Sonny, what do you need?"
The waiter serves a variety of dishes on the menu, each of which looks very delicious, but of course the price is much more expensive than the usual meal.
Well, on average, a dish costs two or three silver coins, so it's no wonder that few people come to the VIP area.
Two silver coins are no different from sand in the eyes of Hong Qi today, but for most people, two silver coins are a bit expensive for a single dish.
"Well, one for all. ”
"Yes, a drink, please?"
The waiter said respectfully, this situation has long been strange to him, and there are often those nouveau riche who come to the restaurant and order a large number of meals and only eat some, but not many people dare to do so like Hong Qi.
"Let's brew it on a moonlit night, five bottles. ”
Hong Qi said, looking at the menu, he remembered the best drink in the city of Tamo, the moonlight brew, but the price of the moonlight brew is very expensive, it usually does not appear in the menu, only those who have money will be recommended.
"Yes. ”
The waiter confirms the meal and leaves the second floor.
It's good to be literate.
When Hong Qi saw the waiter in front of him, he couldn't help but want to compare the waiter he had met at Vera's restaurant before, there was a clear difference in attitude between the two, and there was also a big difference in their reactions to the same behavior of their own.
Is this the difference between towns?
Guessing, but Hong Qi didn't have much energy to worry about this matter, after all, he had just seen traces of the suspected traverser again, and if the other party was really a traverser, then why did he do such a thing?
In the restaurant, Hong Qi focused all his attention on hearing, and in an instant, he could hear the conversation of everyone on the entire second floor.
This is the advantage of Warcraft, and it is also something that humans have never been able to achieve, and it is a dangerous state that can limit the function of a certain part of the body, and even life support can be ignored.
Although there are not many people on the second floor, compared to the first floor, at least Hong Qi has heard the voices of at least thirty people, and compared to the first floor, the VIP area on the second floor will be possible for Hong Qi to get the information he wants.
"I heard that the price of grain crops has risen a lot recently, why don't you sell some of them first?"
"No, no, no, just wait, it's the right decision to continue to buy crops from farmers. ”
It sounds like a conversation between businessmen.
"It's time for the demonic beasts of the Dark Forest to start getting restless, so be careful. ”
"I hope those extraordinary monsters in there don't run around, or we'll have to be busy for a while. ”
"Also, as the city defense army of the capital, it is really hard to leave this kind of hidden worry near the capital. ”
"Who knows, we can't think of what the group of people up there are thinking anyway, the point is that we still have to spend energy to appease the rookies. ”
"Cheers to the predicament we are about to face!"
"Cheers!"
Well...... Should it be a fullback?
"Hey, you know there's a new thing hanging up in the Mammon prop shop today. ”
"Oh, what? Is it some kind of magical object?"
"It's magical, it's a strip of cloth with the second six-fold on it. ”
Won the lottery!
So Hong Qi focused on the conversation between the two men.
"What does the second piece mean?"
"It's the second thing you buy, it's 60% of the original price. ”
"Oh, sounds interesting, I've never heard of such a sale. ”
"This is the first time I've heard of it, and I've heard that one of the young masters of the Mammon family came up with it, and I'm planning to do other things after hearing about it. ”
"What's the matter?"
"I don't know, but according to what others have said, it is estimated that the shock is no less than this second six-fold method. ”
The Mammon family?!No wonder they dare to reveal their identity!
When Hong Qi heard this, he couldn't help but think of the huge family that still existed even in the later generations.
The Mammon family, known as the four major merchant families along with Prefit, Bisnes, and Riske, called themselves bankers because they wanted to distinguish themselves from ordinary merchants.
When later generations learned about these families, Hong Qi looked at the books in the library and described the wealth of those families, and knew that those people were the local tyrants among the local tyrants.
When the poor people spent their whole lives trying to earn a bag of gold coins, the four major business families had already used that bag of gold coins to earn dozens of times the gold coins.
Although there are some unequal conditions between the two, being able to use a bag of gold coins as funds and then earn dozens of times the amount is definitely not something that ordinary people can achieve, but the four major families are exceptions.
That's why they stand proudly at the pinnacle of commerce, and at the same time, commerce alone can compare with several big families with deep backgrounds, and even threaten the existence of the royal family.
That's terrible......
Hong Qi couldn't help but feel very troubled when he heard the news, because he knew that once that person grew up, his strength would definitely be a thousand miles under the cultivation of the Mammon family.
Could it be that this is the difference between only one point and full point of traversing skills?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh that the other party's crossing technology was much better than his own, and just by applying what he had learned on the earth, he could control a lot of benefits.
I just hope that kind of person can die in the struggle of the big family......
There are often struggles between large families, and if that person is unfortunate enough to become a victim of the struggle, Hong Qi will also be relieved.
But thinking about it this way, even Hong Qi doesn't believe that this kind of person will die in that kind of family strife, judging from the story of the protagonist, it is a plot where whoever stands in his way will die, and it may even be used as a stepping stone to make that person continue to become stronger.
Hehe, I guess the traverser who was hiding in a toothy smile should have been troubled for a long time when he heard the news.
Thinking about it, he shifted his mood and returned to his normal state.
At this time, the meal happened to be delivered, and it should be said that the meal that Hong Qi ordered happened to be the first course, and there were still a lot of dishes waiting to come out later.
"Eat, eat, eat, anyway, I don't bother to care about these things, it's not up to me to decide whether to live or die, naturally I'll do it desperately." ”
Talking to himself, Hong Qi and Doug enjoyed a delicious lunch, of course, these meals were much inferior to Gordon's craftsmanship, but Hong Qi did not have to make Gordon's food.
After the meal, the moonlit night brew, Hong Qi poured the wine into the cup and admired it, through the light refraction in the cup seems to faintly appear a full moon, which is also the origin of the moonlit night brew, and its taste is as sweet as the soft moonlight, people can't help but close their eyes to enjoy the taste.
It's a good wine, but I still prefer a slightly stronger wine, so I'll visit the dwarves or orcs another day.
As far as drinks are concerned, the combative dwarves and orcs have a lot of spirits that humans can't bear, and Hong Qi is eager to find a chance to see them.
Alas...... Hopefully you'll be able to get through the last few days safely.
Thinking a little melancholy, while Hung and Doug had finally finished their meal and left the restaurant, he encountered something interesting outside.
I actually saw a knight harassing a woman in public.
