Chapter 14: The Trial

Grinstad is a typical inland city in Denmark, not big or small, ordinary and ordinary. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although it is not close to the sea and has no fishing support, it is a rare grain producing area in Denmark due to its flat land and many rivers, and the people of Greenstad live fairly well thanks to cultivation and trade.

But as in other cities, except for the farms and villages outside the city under the leadership of the various nobles, the city was very class-distinct.

From the aristocratic quarters that surround the castle lord's mansion and churches, to the plebeian quarters that surround the aristocratic quarters, to the slums on the periphery of the plebeian quarters and close to the city walls, it is clear and clear.

According to Tommy, their home is in a slum not far from the city gate.

But instead of going to Tommy's house first, the group went to the Danske branch in the middle of the city.

I don't know when every country on the mainland has set up its own national banks, and almost every city has large and small branches. Zhang Ang didn't quite understand what Albert said about coinage, what is convenient circulation, what is the financial industry, storage and lending, and so on.

For him, for a tycoon like him, the banks all over the continent just made his life more convenient.

For example, now, he smashed a large bag of gold francs on the counter of the Danske Bank's Greenstad branch, ignoring the surprised eyes of the people around him, and said lightly: "These are gold francs, help me change them all to krona!"

The heavy bag was opened, the gold coins were revealed, and the supervisor behind the counter immediately gave an order: "Hurry up and get things done for this distinguished gentleman, you, you, you, hurry up and help." ”

Several female clerks left their counters, were gathered, and counted the money in the bags together, and after a while, more piles of coins were piled up in front of Zhang Ang: "Dear guest, your business is complete, and we have exchanged all your 500 gold francs for our Danish gold krona, after deducting five percent of the handling fee, we will pay you a total of 679 gold crowns, you can count them." ”

Zhang Ang didn't have time to waste time with them, so he grabbed one and looked at it, and he found that the golden kronor was slightly smaller than the golden franc, on one side was a bust of a knight, and on the other was a very short sword, like a broken sword. Then, all the gold coins were received in the bag.

"I don't know if you need a guard to protect you, we have a master guard on our side to ensure that you are escorted home or hotel safely, and the price is negotiable. Zhang Ang was about to leave, but the fat supervisor greeted him.

"Hehe, no. Zhang Ang decisively rejected him, what kind of eyesight is this, the peak martial arts master of the labor and capital, the sword skills are superb, the strong under his command are like clouds, the fierce generals are like rain, and they still need to be escorted?

Out of the door, Zhang Ang met with the others, came to the hotel, and then counted out 100 gold kronor and handed it to little Tommy: "We are waiting for you here, you can go by yourself, wait for the affairs at home to be dealt with, and then come here to find us, okay?"

"Yes, I don't need so much, I, I just need to ......" Little Tommy was a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, after curing the disease, you can stay at home with the rest of the money, after all, didn't we say that we would be my disciple in the future?" Zhang Ang interrupted him: "Okay, let's go." ”

Watching little Tommy walk out of the hotel, Zhang Ang couldn't help but ask Albert: "Am I really not like a master? ”

But Albert had a serious face: "Well, yes, you really don't look like a master, to be honest, I haven't been able to see through your strength." And from the point of view of temperament, you don't have all the usual killing aura of masters, that wildness, that kind of fortitude, that kind of courage, how to say, other masters are like weeds struggling to grow in the cracks of the stone, full of hard work, the more you fight, the baptism of wind and frost that has been killed. You, on the other hand, are more like flowers carefully cultivated in the garden, delicate and innocent, more like a free and easy artist, rather than a real warrior. ”

"That's right. Maybe I have too little practical experience. Zhang Ang also frowned: "Forget it, I'll take a look with me first, after all, accepting apprentices always has to be tested." Rest here until I come back. ”

After that, he rubbed his face a few times at will, turned himself into a different appearance, and left the hotel.

Keeping up with a kid who didn't have martial arts was effortless for Zhang Ang, not to mention that he had already changed his appearance and clothes.

However, unexpectedly, little Tommy did not go back to the slum first, but went to a bar at the city gate.

Oops, I wipe, I know that I know people and faces, I don't know my heart, I just gave you money, why don't you go into this kind of place to spend, I'm really a dog.

Although he was disappointed, Zhang Ang still followed him into the tavern.

When he walked in, he saw little Tommy talking to the bartender, he burst into tears, and said to the tavern owner with a bewildered face with sobs: "Captain Hank, Sister Linda and Brother Nick were all killed by vampires, and I managed to survive and let the teacher save me." There's 80 gold crowns here, my teacher gave it to me, I don't know if Captain Hank has any family, can you help me give them the money?"

"Teacher, have you found the master? You can't be a liar, no, since he gave you so much money, he shouldn't be a liar. Alas, those who are adventurers don't know today yesterday, it's good that you can come back alive, don't worry, I'll go and inquire and help you give money to their families. The tavern assured with emotion.

"Uh-huh, then please. Little Tommy bowed and left the tavern.

Oops, it's the wrong person, I'm so stupid, my apprentice, of course, is kind-hearted, so simple and unpretentious, and it's completely different from those bewitching sluts who only know how to kill people and become stronger.

Then he followed little Tommy around and into a crowded and dilapidated slum.

Along the way, there were dilapidated houses, foul smells, and poor people with languishing faces or scrawny faces.

It's dirty, it's dilapidated, the roads are narrow, the sewage is running sideways, and the feces and urine are everywhere. Little Tommy could easily walk through here, but Zhang Ang couldn't bear it, so he had to take up light work and go to the roof.

Finally, he stopped in front of a dark, haphazardly patched hut, but instead of going in, he said to a shriveled old woman next to him, "Aunt Kardashian, is my mom okay now?"

"Oh, Tommy, you're back, don't worry, I went to see it in the morning, and your mother is still the same, but if it goes on like this, ......"

Little Tommy entered the house, and after a while he ran out and got a doctor, and the neighbors around him came to help.

In the midst of a rush of hustle and bustle, the worry on little Tommy's face disappeared, revealing a smile that he had not seen in a long time.
