The grandfather chatted with Mrs. Meghan, and with the arrival of Bran, the two ended the topic, and Mrs. Meghan first asked Bran about his life in the church and whether there was any inconvenience, and then got to the point.

This meeting is to get Simon into the leadership of the inn guild, and even become the president.

The whole afternoon was in the sand table deduction, and under Mrs. Meghan's analysis, they could only hold eight votes, which is too few.

It costs money and puts knives around the necks of some innkeepers.

It sounds very dark, but the opponent will do the same, it is related to who leads the city, if it is placed in the wool guild, the competition is even fiercer, all kinds of slander and black letters, and even send robbers to kill.

The Teutonic mercenary regiment has been established for some time, and it comes in handy.

The Teutonic mercenary group is now also well-known in the city of Meate, successfully escorting several important cargoes and exterminating a group of thieves led by wandering knights entrenched in the mountains of Florence.

Dare to fight, the development of the Teutonic mercenary group has risen rapidly, but because of this, Bran always doesn't recognize the appearance of these mercenaries, and every once in a while, someone dies and someone replaces.

……

After the core secret chat, Mrs. Meghan gave Howard a kiss and left, there are other guild elections she needs to pay attention to, and there are two grandparents left in the room.

Compared to three years ago, Howard is much older, and a layer of mist has begun to appear in his right eye.

Bran leaned over, and Howard touched Bran's face lovingly, admonishing, "You're thirteen years old, almost an adult, take care of yourself, my body can't move anymore." ”

"I know, grandfather......"

Bran stopped talking.

The two grandparents waited quietly and chatted casually.

About a moment later, Bran helped his grandfather downstairs and watched him get into the carriage and go.

Carol left with him and took the eight guards with him, so that only eight guards and Iron Mountain were left on the first floor.

After sending his grandfather away, Bran gestured to Iron Mountain and Simon and went upstairs with him.

Without the restraint just now, Bran lay directly on his back on the bed after entering, biting a kind of "wood frankincense" in his mouth.

Originally produced on a small island in the Aegean Sea, it was originally in liquid form, but when dried, it became a hard, brittle, translucent resin. When chewed, the taste is bitter at first, and after chewing, a refreshing fragrance is oozing, which makes the mouth fragrant.

In addition to this function, there is also a point that inhibits Bran's "headache".

After being poisoned at the age of three, although he survived with light stones, the root of the disease could not be eradicated.

When the weather changes or is too tired, it will cause headaches, Howard used a lot of herbs and spices and food, and finally found that this wood frankincense can be relieved, as the body grows, the immunity is strengthened, and now even if it has an attack, it is within the range of tolerable headaches, but this thing Bran still carries with him.

Two people in the room stood and listened to the training.

"Simon, a year ago you were relegated to be one of the voting-ready innkeepers, and this time you need to be a member of the leadership."

"Can I?!" Simon was surprised.

"Mobilize all the funds available in the hotel." Bran pointed to a bag of coins on the table and said, "This is Mrs. Meghan's funding, I will open a list for you later, a total of seven people, no matter what method you use, let them all support you, if there is trouble, Iron Mountain will help you from the side." ”

Simon glanced at Iron Mountain, working with this man full of wild smell, he didn't like it very much, and in the same way, Iron Mountain didn't look at him squarely.

After Simon collected the money and left, Bran threw another bag of coins from his body, "Have fun with the guards downstairs, remember, Simon can't do anything too contrary to the doctrine, but you can, if Simon can't convince these people, you have to make some effort, I don't allow things to mess up." ”

Bran ordered some cruel words that had not been uttered just now.

"Yes."

When Tie Shan, who was wearing soft leather armor, respectfully marched and saluted, he could clearly see that there were two sword scars on his hands, which were the eternal marks left by the work of the mercenary group for more than two years.

On a few occasions, he also had nightmares because of this, which made Tie Shan's sword more and more cruel, he would not make mistakes again, despise his opponents who were shorter than him, and could slash people with one sword, and never use a second sword that wasted his strength.

Tie Shan took the money bag and walked downstairs heavily, the stairs made a clicking sound from time to time, and when he showed the money bag and summoned everyone to go to the Fengyue place, there was a loud laugh downstairs.

Wine and women are the favorite things of these mercenaries.

The Fengyue place visited is also Mrs. Meghan's property, so as to prevent them from getting drunk and talking nonsense and saying what tricks are in the hands of the enemy.

Upstairs, Bran was sitting at his desk, writing another letter, this one for Jack.

Mrs. Meghan also said another thing, she asked Bran to pick a few people to follow a man named "Eriel".

Elliel was not an enemy, but a close confidant of Albert's own uncle, "Slop", whom Bran had met at Mrs. Meghan's residence.

Since twelve years ago, Slopp, as a relative, has been acting as Mrs. Megan's representative, seeking profits for the Quake family at the Meath City Council.

Why did she secretly follow Eriel, Mrs. Meghan did not explain, Mrs. did not say, and it was naturally inconvenient for Bran to ask.

After the formation of the Teutonic mercenary group, they inevitably came into contact with the "underground order" in the city of Meath, and this aspect has always been the responsibility of Jack.

Bran mentioned in the letter that Jack should find a few new faces and watch from Ariel's house, to find out where Ariel was going on a daily basis, or who would come to see him, but not to follow too closely so as not to be discovered.

……

Elliel is short and fat, has a large belly, has a goatee, likes to wear southern Italian-style robes, has a good relationship with his neighbors, and is also prominent in the crowd.

So be careful to track it so that it doesn't get noticed by others.

Four days later, Jack sent two cautious men, pretending to be businessmen, to hide in a house two roads away from Ariel at a very high rental price.

Ariel always shouts when he walks, greets people when he sees them, and looks amiable.

After ten days of surveillance, two of his men were taken by Jack to the inn to report back to Bran.

There was a curtain behind Bran, and Mrs. Meghan hid behind her, and she did not speak, but took a quill pen and wrote it on the paper, which was shown to Bran from time to time, and Bran asked questions.

When the question was almost asked, Mrs. Meghan nodded, and Bran waved her hand to let her out, and then pulled the curtain open.

"Your people have made it very clear that Eriel has secretly met with 'Turu'."

"Who is Turu?"

"He's owned by the Pavi family, a proprietor in charge of finished wool products, and I tried to recruit him, but it didn't work."
