Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Chamber of Commerce
Noon, Berkshire City.
Jiang Yuan walked down the street in a black robe, his face made a simple disguise using field materials, followed by two heavily armored dolls, one of whom held the reins of a horse.
Located behind the four northern fortress counties, the county town itself serves multiple functions such as strategic depth support and supply line transit, so even if thieves are rife in the county, the city also presents a kind of abnormal prosperity.
In recent years, the burglarity has intensified, and many nobles have given up their castles in the wilderness and chosen to live in the county town.
Due to its proximity to the sea, there are many treasures such as pearl corals, including rare fish species, which are important specialties for foreign trade.
Passing through the alley, the gangsters gathered together silently retreated, Jiang Yuan knew the result, but he was still slightly disappointed, paused for a moment, and finally chose to pass directly.
As long as the physical strength is sufficient, the treatment of the rabble by heavy armor is basically equivalent to indiscriminate killing, especially if the number accumulates.
Across the street, a six-story building stood in front of him, and the Heito Chamber of Commerce, one of the largest conglomerates of the empire at present, was itself the money bag of a certain big man in the imperial capital, and at the same time shouldered the work of intelligence gathering.
"Sir, what do you need, we have a total of four levels of purchase levels, which can effectively help you save time." Miss Ying said enthusiastically.
"Superior Danger Intelligence." Jiang Yuan replied.
"Please follow me."
Relying on the two dolls, Jiang Yuan went all the way unimpeded, and when he came to the fifth floor, Miss Ying bowed and retreated, and the transaction object was replaced by a thin middle-aged man.
"Sir, my name is Conlon, and I hope to provide you with an excellent service." Kanglun looked very polite, although heavy armor is nothing to the strong, but it is very expensive, in addition to the process, the materials required are far better than light armor, and those who can wear and walk on a daily basis will not be ordinary soldiers, at least elite.
This time, the client has good financial resources.
"Berkshire Extra-Dangerous Species Intelligence." Jiang Yuan said directly.
"There are a total of six locations where our chamber of commerce has identified special dangerous species in the local area, and there is a brief overview introduction, you can decide after reading it."
Conlun chose one of the bells on the table, and the bell rang, and half a minute later, a young lady came with a delicate plate.
Jiang Yuan didn't understand why the information sheet was put on the plate, probably some kind of strange sense of ritual, but since he didn't feel threatened, it didn't matter.
"Ghost bone serpent, barren mountain gibbon, blood crow colony, three-headed eagle, sword crocodile lion, one-eyed scorpion."
Cantor explained: "The super dangerous species are basically territorial creatures, and their threat level is off a cliff compared to the previous levels, generally speaking, as long as they don't cross the territory, no one is willing to go through the hard fight, even the top adventurer teams have to weigh the gains and losses, except for the super dangerous species that are almost nowhere to be seen, they are the overlords of the wild." ”
"Ghost-bone serpents, barren mountain gibbons, and three-headed eagles." Jiang Yuan said after choosing.
The reason why the super-dangerous species are called super-class is because they have obvious transcendent properties, such as the ghost-bone giant snake that can spit out pillars of salt and salinize the defenses of the target prey, the barren mountain gibbon is characterized by its hard, lithified whole body to resist attacks, and the three-headed eagle excels in flight speed and extreme altitude.
Conlun took out three of them from the plate and handed them over, and asked at the same time: "Chenghui 150 gold coins, do you need information on the first-level dangerous species, their strength is equivalent to the knight level, and they are much easier to deal with than the special level." ”
"I remember there should be dangerous ant species that can explode." Jiang Yuan said that Oberg was the most famous assassination guild, and its leader had used the bug to injure Gozzi with outstanding results.
"The estimate you are talking about is wolf-headed ants, they are a third-level dangerous species, but the risk assessment is for a single one, whether it is raised or used as a material, please be careful."
Conlun shook the bell, and soon someone sent a metal box half a meter high, and after opening it, a cold air surged, and dense wolf-headed ants slept quietly in the ice.
"Low temperature will make the wolf-headed ants fall into dormancy, a total of more than 3,000, they are more expensive than the previous information, 300 gold coins, if you pinch the queen ant, the rest of the ants will end their lives, and the power will probably blow up this building." Conlun hesitated for a moment and said, "If you need force, we will occasionally take on combat sales, and the cost of this bomb is too high. ”
"Trade, I'll come back to you if you have a problem."
"Sir, rest assured, credibility is fundamental."
One thousand gold coins spent half in a blink of an eye, and Jiang Yuan walked out of the Black Tuo Chamber of Commerce with the harvest, in this world, one gold coin = ten silver coins = one thousand copper coins.
The Empire's Corn Laws in the Earl's Study stipulated that a standard piece of brown bread should not cost more than one copper coin, but at the end of the Empire, prices were now on the verge of collapse, as if they did not exist.
Jiang Yuan left the city of Berkshire and headed towards the northeast seaside, on horseback, he spread out the map, the first target ghost bone giant snake likes to inhabit the natural salt farm, that kind of environment lives a second-class dangerous species, salt cattle, is the main food of the giant snake.
……
Three days later, by a wide river, Jiang Yuan crouched down to wash the blood on his face with the river water, and the corpses of a dozen thieves were scattered not far away.
The stream reflects the cheeks, this face is no different from his fifteen-year-old self, Baron Noel Titus, this identity originally did not exist, Stargate created a projection of consciousness and plunged into the world, and used this as a base to use memes to radiate the cognition of the people around him, and finally integrate the identity.
As a large-scale thinking distortion ability, the effect is terrifying, because he has not discovered the limit of Xingmen's ability at present, as if he treats everyone equally regardless of strength or weakness, and wantonly playing with his own will is undoubtedly the mortal enemy of intelligent life.
However, any so-called perfection is flawed, after all, perfection is a relative concept, and the same is true of memes and mental distortions, if the goal doubts everything and the self is logically complete, then the two sets of thinking will easily conflict.
If he has a daughter, then the other party must have a lot of preparations left by himself to ensure safety, if not, then there is something wrong with this daughter.
Again, this proves one thing again, the stargate has no autonomous consciousness, and it does not have the ability to manipulate the host, otherwise adjusting the advent time, the stargate can completely manipulate the consciousness body to carry out similar activities instead of him, and finally achieve the effect of no flaws.
Jiang Yuan stood up from the edge of the stream and walked towards the target salt field, the salt cow puppet following behind.
Since the beginning of the fight, he has deliberately chosen a completely opposite attitude to the Earl, and has not concealed his true temperament, such as being unwilling to choose a partner casually, this kind of performance will have an impact on the reality of the Earl's own logic, as long as the other party begins to doubt himself, and finally perceives the abnormality, he can complete the security certification of the stargate.
After this temptation, Jiang Yuan finally decided to choose to trust Xingmen, although he may be fighting wits and courage with the air, but his own safety has to be guarded.
As for the price, it's not a big problem, the earl will probably think that it is the influence of a certain missing imperial tool, and for the nobles, the bloodline and social identity are in line, then it is the same as the real thing.
