Chapter 8: To the Slave Merchant's House
On the third day, Su Xuan didn't choose to sleep until he woke up naturally this time, he woke up early before dawn, all the loot to be sold had been handed over to Somara to load the car yesterday, and his white shirt had been cleaned, and the blood stains on it had been cleaned cleanly, so he put on a white shirt and put the iron armor into the backpack, the physical strength attribute bonus of the iron armor was still there, but it lost its protective power after putting it in the backpack.
Somala parked the carriage at the gate of the courtyard, the movement of the carriage was still quite loud, Su Xuan heard the sound of the carriage moving and knew that Somala was already waiting for him at the door, and without waiting for Somala to call him, he quickly went out and walked in the direction of the carriage.
When he came to the carriage, Su Xuan saw that his trophies were neatly stacked together, and there was a large cage behind the carriage, and it was the red-haired man who was being held inside. Seeing that Su Xuan had arrived early, Somala immediately warmly greeted Su Xuan to get into the car, and handed him a large piece of black bread and a glass of milk for today's breakfast.
The carriage was fast along the way, but it was very smooth, not only because the carriage was strong enough, but more importantly, because Somala was good enough to drive. As the sky grew brighter, Su Xuan remembered to ask Somara about the clues about the labyrinth, so he said, "Village chief, do you know the clues about the labyrinth?" ”
After listening to this, Somara only thought for a while and gave an answer: "What you want to ask is the labyrinth, there is an entrance to the labyrinth in the town of Beyru, but it is generally guarded by the people of the Knights, but the method of entering is also very simple, every time you enter, you only need to pay the guards of the knights 3 silver coins to go to the labyrinth to explore, you only need to go to the central square of Beyru Town, you can see the guards guarding the maze and a large number of adventurers gathered there." ”
"Okay, I'm going to go to the labyrinth after disposing of the extra equipment in hand, and then the village chief will return to the village alone, I plan to stay in Beyru Town for a while."
Somara nodded to show that he understood what Su Xuan meant, and then began to concentrate on driving the carriage again.
After another five hours, Su Xuan and his party finally arrived in the town of Beyru, and Somara drove through the city gate without being stopped by anyone, only the guards at the city gate glanced at their carriage, and then continued to look at the pedestrians and horses behind.
Coming to the interior of Beyru Town, the prosperity here is simply beyond Su Xuan's imagination, he really can't understand why such a large and well-equipped building complex should be named after the town, it is not better to call Beyru City directly All kinds of high-rise buildings are lined up, bustling crowds are surging, people here are dressed very differently from the village, not the kind of linen clothes with a uniform style, some people are wearing robes, they look like priests or monks, and some people are wearing armor made of various materials, This is probably a knight or an adventurer, the aristocratic lady in a floral dress chatted with the noble young master who accompanied her, her face was filled with a quiet smile from time to time, and all kinds of novelties stimulated Su Xuan to make him dizzy.
Unconsciously, Su Xuan and Somala had already arrived at the largest market in Beyru Town, and Somala told Su Xuan that because the market would only be held once every five days, the villagers from nearby villages would also gather here, and the market would not be deserted today.
Somala drove the carriage to a building near the bazaar and stopped, the sign on the building said the office of the Beyru Knights, Su Xuan was sure that the people standing downstairs should be the staff of the Knights, because they were all wearing the same red and white striped uniforms as the guards at the city gate, Somala and Su Xuan jumped out of the carriage and walked straight to the staff, there were only two staff members downstairs, one of them was a girl with a golden ponytail hairstyle, and the other was a middle-aged uncle wearing a white turban, Somara walked ahead and talked to the girl.
After understanding the situation, the girl said to Su Xuan: "You are a part of the group of thieves who attacked Beyru, two of them have been rewarded, I will pay you according to the regulations, but before I do that, I need to confirm their information cards." ”
The middle-aged uncle with a white turban stretched out his right hand and motioned for Su Xuan to hand over the things to him, Su Xuan nodded, took out the stack of information cards from his pocket and handed it to the other party. After a few minutes, the blonde ponytail girl walked out of the office building with a money bag in her hand.
"Hey, come on." After the blonde ponytail girl finished speaking, she threw the money bag in her hand to Su Xuan, and Su Xuan Ma also stretched out her hand and grabbed the money bag very quickly. Su Xuan opened the money bag to check the items inside, there were 33 silver coins in the money bag, which is also a lot of wealth in the civilian families of this world, in this world, the conversion of currency is very simple, a gold coin is equal to a hundred silver coins is equal to a hundred copper coins, so even a silver coin is enough to support an ordinary family of three for a week's rations.
"All the bounties add up to 33 silver coins, well, if it's okay, I'd advise you to get out of here quickly." The blonde ponytail girl's words seemed very indifferent, although her attitude was not very good since they first met, but now it seems to have become colder. Su Xuan was slightly stunned and didn't say any more superfluous words, put away the money bag and got into the carriage with Somara, intending to leave here and go to the next place.
Sitting in the carriage, Su Xuan began to look around again, but Somala hurriedly stopped Su Xuan's move and said: "Xiao Su, don't look around in this place, the security around here is actually not so good in every area, and there are many bad places, although there are places like brothels, but I don't recommend you to go to this kind of place." ”
Su Xuan couldn't help but blush after hearing this, "Village chief, you really misunderstood, I really didn't think about it so much." It's not that Su Xuan is quibbling about anything, but he does think very clearly, there is an old saying that a knife on the head of the word lustful, what is a woman, that will only affect the speed at which he wields a machete, he has just gained the ability to maintain a basic life in this world, how can he waste money in this place, and want to let himself spend money on women? Hehe, don't even think about it.
"Haha, okay, then I'll be wrong." Somala laughed and stopped talking about it.
The carriage traveled for a while, and then stopped in front of a more luxurious courtyard, and Somala told Su Xuan that they had come to the Slave Merchant House, which was the largest slave trading place in Beyru Town, and its owner, Yalan, was also one of the richest people in Beyru Town.
Su Xuan and Somara were guided by the servants to the living room used to receive guests in the museum, waiting for Yalan to appear and discuss matters related to the slave trade. After a while, a middle-aged man dressed in a red aristocratic costume and with a neat beard came to the living room unhurriedly, he first bowed slightly to Su Xuan and Somala, and then said: "I'm really sorry, there have been too many guests recently, so the two of you have been waiting for a long time, so do you want to trade slaves?" ”
"Yes, Mr. Alan, this interruption is for this purpose." Somara responded to Ah Lan's words, and explained to Ah Lan why Su Xuan defeated a large number of bandits and why he wanted to sell red-haired men.
After listening to Somala's narration, Yalan also looked at Su Xuan with interest, and then said to Su Xuan with a smile: "Haha, I already know your heroic deeds, but you can beat so many thieves by yourself, your strength must be quite good." ”
"No, no, no, you're exalting me too much, and I'm just a fluke." Su Xuan didn't take Yalan's compliments too seriously, although Yalan behaved very appropriately in terms of words and actions, but this was just a solidified pattern formed in his long-term interactions with people, and all the cordiality and friendliness were just a mask he wore on his face to show others.
Seeing Su Xuan's indifferent answer, Yalan's eyes shrank slightly, and his heart secretly improved Su Xuan's evaluation a lot, a young man with strength and modesty, his future is bound to be limitless, maybe he can provide him with a lot of help in some aspects.
