The Holy Salt City is not very large, but no matter how small, it is one of the few remaining sanctuaries in the Kingdom of Ameri, and it is inhabited by a large population. It is not easy to find Weimar, Joseph and others of the Clap family among so many people.

If Pan Long had an official status, he could have gone to the manager of this shelter and checked his household registration information. But in this era, there has long been no "official", and the various shelters have gone their own way, with only basic respect for each other, and there is no longer any cooperative relationship.

Even if other shelter managers came to Holy Salt City, they would not be able to check the city's household registration information.

Pan Long even suspected that perhaps Shengyancheng itself did not have detailed and accurate household registration information.

Plague continued to spread across the lands of the Kingdom of America, with frequent population movements and deaths. In this case, what is the point of collating detailed and accurate household registration information?

He pondered these questions and found a restaurant.

Mankind's craving for wine and food will never be stopped in any era. Even if there are few supplies in the shelter, even if people are living in precarious conditions, the business of the hotel is still booming.

Perhaps, it is precisely because life is so difficult that people need less expensive enjoyment more and more to comfort their painful souls?

After Pan Long entered the door, he saw a miasma of black smoke. It was still daylight, but there were more than half of the people sitting in the restaurant, and almost everyone had wine in front of them, and many people were drunk and chattering. There are boasting, complaining, remembering, and cursing, and the two people who are chatting passionately at many tables are actually talking about things that are not related to each other at all, and Pan Long even suspects that they don't know each other.

Presumably, all they need is to confide, and someone to talk to, and that's it.

He went to the counter and placed a gold coin from the city of Velen on the table.

"Want something?" asked the bartender.

"Let's do it, just one gold coin can do it. Pan Long said.

The bartender nodded, wrote a list, called the waiter, and asked her to take it to the back kitchen.

This counter is very long, with a row of tall round stools in front of it. Pan Long dragged one over and sat down, put a silver coin on the table, and asked, "I just arrived at this shelter today, is there anything worth noting here?"

The bartender shook his head: "All shelters are the same, nothing particularly noteworthy." It's just that when you usually encounter a green-clothed city patrolman, you should remember to concede three points. ”

"Everybody knows about this kind of thing. ”

"I really don't know what to say other than that. The bartender sighed, "Where is there anything to say in this world? I see that you are a man who can fight with a halberd." Then as long as you watch out for the city patrols and don't cause trouble yourself, you'll be fine. I really don't know what to say to you. ”

Pan Long thought for a while and asked, "Then is there any way to make money here?"

"The most lucrative way is always to go on a treasure hunt, but treasure hunting is dangerous – only two teams have been able to come back from the treasure hunt in recent months. The Clayp family also suffered heavy losses, and even the backbone of the family, the only Awakened Colin, died...... In fact, if you want me to say, it is still the safest to farm. Although you can't make a fortune, you can at least eat your stomach. ”

He sighed again: "In this era, it is a great blessing to be able to eat a full stomach!"

Pan Long nodded and asked, "Introduce me to those two teams." ”

As he spoke, he pushed the silver coin over.

The bartender picked up the silver coin and stuffed it into his pocket, saying, "A team of three older Awakened Ones, they are Rice, Bell, and Ed. All three of them have been experts in the wilderness for many years, and each has led the team many times on their own. Since they formed a team, although the harvest of each outing is not necessarily large, there are almost no deaths in the team. It is the most famous treasure hunt team in our Holy Salt City. ”

Pan Long asked with interest: "Then do they still recruit people?" I still have some confidence in my own ability. ”

"Of course, it has been a long time since it was recruited, and if they wanted to recruit people, it is estimated that the queue would go all the way to the city gate. ”

The bartender smiled and continued, "The Clayp family is the more common kind of treasure hunters who 'hit the big luck'. When old Colin woke up not long ago, he muttered, 'I'm old, I need to save some money' or something. Later, he borrowed from a loan shark, prepared a carriage and supplies, and took the whole family out to hunt for treasure. It turned out to be a lot of gains, but he died, and so did his wife and a daughter-in-law......"

"How many people are in their team?" Pan Long asked knowingly.

"Fourteen people, in addition to the Clayp family, and a few small day laborers they hire. The bartender replied, "Actually, it's about spending money to buy your life, and letting those half-sized children be cannon fodder when necessary." As a result, none of the boys died, but three of the Clayps. ”

He shook his head, and said, "But the Clayp family has really made money, according to those boys, one by one, one by one, gold and silver, at least a big bag." ”

He showed a look of yearning and sighed: "If I can have such a sum of money, opening a tavern by myself is enough to live for a lifetime......"

"That'...... Where is their home?" Pan Long asked, "maybe they need a good fighter, whether it's for their next treasure hunt or to be a bodyguard." ”

The bartender introduced him, and Pan Long remembered the address, ate and drank to his heart's content, and went straight forward.

The Clayp family lives in Midtown of St. Salt — the kind of people who don't have a lot of status, but already have a steady income and can live a stable life. When Pan Long came to the neighborhood where their house was located, he saw a lot of sneaky people. These people have a greedy and vicious glint in their eyes, and they look like hyenas and vultures, which is disgusting.

He ignored the men, walked straight to the door, and knocked on it.

"Weimar, Joseph, I'm Norman. He exclaimed, "Won't you invite me to a drink?"

The door soon opened, and Joseph gladly came out to meet him.

Pan Long noticed that Joseph had dark circles on his face and looked like he hadn't rested well during this time.

Inside, the Clayp family was there. Everyone's spirits weren't very good, more than one seemed sick, and almost everyone had dark circles under their eyes, apparently not sleeping well at night.

"What's the matter with you, why do you look more tired than me, who has been trekking through the wilderness for days?" asked Pan Long.

"Don't mention it!" Weimar sighed, "it's all about money!"

"Can money still hurt people?"

"Our family made that money, and then it was targeted by people from all walks of life. Weimar smiled wryly and said, "Everyone wants to take a bite out of us and snatch the money." ”

Joseph said indignantly, "If it weren't for the absence of Daddy, he would have given them an egg with those goods, and he would not have dared to attack our idea!"

Pan Long smiled: "Then I'm just in time! I'm idle, let's go clean up and clean up those troublemakers." ”
