Chapter 251, Basement Intelligence Station
Fang Hao agreed so readily, but the maid was slightly stunned.
Even if he obeyed his wife's orders and brought the young cloth merchant to visit the shop, he never thought that he would actually buy it.
This is one of the three most prosperous shopping streets in Lisses, and the prices of the shops have also been sky-high.
Like her, the personal maid of the lady of the city lord's mansion has an enviable job and treatment.
You also have to live to be over 500 years old before you can buy one.
This is still a situation where house prices will not rise.
"Do I need any formalities?" Fang Hao asked again.
The stunned maid immediately recovered and asked in a tone of reconfirmation, "Sir, are you sure you want to buy this shop?" The price recorded by the City Lord's Mansion was 700,000 gold coins. ”
When she said 700,000, the maid's voice trembled a little.
This is simply a terrifying number, and only those business houses or families that have been famous for a long time would spend so much money to set up shop here.
"Can I get a discount?" Fang Hao asked.
"Sir, I don't know much about that, but you may want to ask Madame." The maid said.
"You can use the War Card here!"
"Yes."
"Then let's go, take me through the formalities."
"Ahh
Fang Hao walked out of the store with An Jia, and the maid let out with an afterthought and followed.
Is this young cloth merchant really so rich?
Just a simple and casual glance at it, and decided to buy it?
She had also seen many aristocratic and wealthy businessmen, but she had never seen someone like Fang Hao, who was quick and indifferent to spend hundreds of thousands of gold coins.
The three of them got back on the carriage and bought the deed to the shop at the place where the house was registered in the city lord's mansion.
In the future, this shop will be owned by Fang Hao.
The maid's job is done, and there is no need for her to continue to lead the way.
After saluting slightly, he said goodbye to Fang Hao and the others.
Come back to the store and take out your key to open it.
This is my second shop.
"What are you going to do?" Anjia said, addulging the wooden cup at her feet.
Make a dangdang crashing sound.
"Hot pot restaurant, let's go back and make some money first." replied.
Different from the clothing and accessories industry, hot pot restaurants are simple to open and effective.
All you need to do is clean the store, transport the base material prepared by Yi'er, and it can be officially opened.
And with the scarcity of food in this era, hot pot is very popular with people, even civilians can afford to eat it, and it tastes good.
"Yes."
Dangdang!!
The sound of the kicked wooden cup still rolling down, as if it was going down the stairs.
The two glanced at each other and walked towards the area where the wooden cup flew away.
At the back of the stairs, the two found a downward entrance.
It was from here that the wooden cups fell, and the sound of collision was heard.
The entrance to the cave was dimly lit, and it was supposed to be the basement or storage room of the store.
Fang Hao took out a 'glow-in-the-dark stone lantern' from the Book of Lords, bent down and stretched the lantern along the entrance of the basement.
The soft glow of the luminous stone illuminates the basement.
It's cold, empty, and smells a little moldy.
After making sure there was no danger inside, he opened all the covers and walked down the wooden stairs.
"What does it smell like here?" Anjia covered her nose and complained.
It does have a musty smell.
"It should be the cellar of the old tavern."
"When you say that, I don't feel like I want to drink for a month." Anja said.
Hang the lantern on the roof of the shed to illuminate the surrounding space.
There is indeed a wine cellar here, and there are traces of the barrels that were removed.
After a simple search here, I found 5 [Essence of Wine], which is an unexpected gain.
"Fang Hao, there's a business alliance's mailbox here!" Anjia exclaimed not far away.
Business alliance mailbox?
"Where are you?" Fang Hao asked.
An Jia walked out and led Fang Hao to a hut isolated by a secret door.
The hut is small, with a wooden table in the middle and a black mailbox with a sickle pattern.
This is not a symbol of the Merchant Alliance, but a Faceless Hut.
In other words, it is also the intelligence agency of the Faceless Lodge.
The news of the inquiry will be passed on.
Maybe the maid said that she was arrested, maybe because of this incident.
After all, all forces will buy information from the Faceless, and at the same time, they will also reject the Faceless.
"Is it a business alliance?"
"It's the Faceless Hut, the agency that buys and sells intelligence." Fang Hao explained.
The contents of the desk were emptied, and there were only debris all over the floor.
But Fang Hao was still among the miscellaneous items and found a letter that had only been burned and only a corner was left.
Writes: Capture the traverser and send it to the .......
It was also burned in the back when it was sent to the back.
But these words had already made Fang Hao's brows furrow instantly.
The word traverser, only those who understand the meaning of it.
Even if the Aborigines understood that they were foreign, they would not use the word.
Either the traverser himself said it, or some special way understood the meaning of the word.
For a moment, Fang Hao thought of the witch he had met, holding a crystal ball.
Magic and the undead are present, and it's no surprise that there are some ways to search for memories.
"Questions?" Seeing Fang Hao standing aside and frowning, An Jia asked softly.
"It's not a big problem, call our people here, and sort it out briefly."
"Okay."
The two climbed up the stairs and transferred the heavy sword infantry on standby at the inn, and removed all the useless waste from the store and threw it away.
……
Day 2.
At dusk, Fang Hao and his party returned to Prull City.
The hot pot restaurant is a little deserted today.
It was dinner time, but there was not a single customer in the shop.
"Why isn't there one?" Fang Hao asked.
Xiaobai's face was full of sadness, and he apologized: "I'm sorry master, I don't know what's going on today, and suddenly no one came over." ”
Several rabbit maids on the side also lowered their heads.
"Suddenly, you say?"
"Well, the number of people who came since yesterday afternoon has been decreasing, and today there is even a guest who did not come." Xiaobai said.
That's a little weird.
In this day and age, a shop suddenly doesn't have customers.
Unless someone is poisoned in the store, this shouldn't happen.
"Do you know why?"
"I don't know."
"It's okay, I'll go to the tavern across the street and ask, if there are no guests, you can get off work early and rest." Fang Hao comforted a few people and said.
"Oh, good master."
Out of the store, Fang Hao went straight to the Rose Tavern opposite.
It is similar to the form of a hot pot restaurant, and there are no customers in the tavern.
The proprietress sat there listlessly as well.
"Why are you so lonely today?" Fang Hao sat down at the front desk.
The proprietress glanced at him and sighed heavily.
But he still got up, took two glasses of beer and put them in front of Fang Hao and An Jia.
"I'm afraid it will be even more lonely in the future."
"Huh? Why? ”
The proprietress glanced at it vigilantly and said softly: "I heard that there is going to be a war, and the whole city is worried, who still has the heart to come out to drink." ”
"War? Don't make trouble, you can't even encircle and suppress the mountain bandits, who are you fighting? ”
Fang Hao said in disbelief.
Purul is a small city, and the first two mountain bandits and fire wolf mercenaries were eliminated by Fang Hao.
Now he doesn't believe that Pruul will fight.
The proprietress glanced at Fang Hao and said seriously: "Fight the undead in the north, starting this morning, the rich and powerful have left, leaving only those who can't walk in the city, and there is nowhere to go." ”
