The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 484
Although free board and lodging is still very good, but William prefers to enjoy something better, of course, the premise is that he has money.

Although Wan Guan's private wealth from his concubine is not around, William is not in Calimport and has nothing to gain.

After all, Calimport is an ancient city that has prospered for nearly ten thousand years. It has a profound heritage, especially the luxury in the core area. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is full of treasures.Even though he didn't specifically collect property, but just picked up a few inconspicuous small objects, they were all valuable goods, not to mention that he also collected a lot of high-level equipment as trophies.

William wants to find a place that can deal with the backlog in his hand. In a place like Mermaid Arm, where dragons and snakes are mixed, the bartender is undoubtedly one of the most well-informed characters. He must know where or who can eat the next batch. special cargo.

William leaned over to the bartender who was wiping the glass. The bartender knew this young foreigner who had been specially arranged to live here by a certain big shot. He didn't stop his work, but just said casually: "Hello, young friend. Yes Is there anything I can do for you?" Although he was not very satisfied with the young man's free food and drink, the bartender still reserved his courtesy respect for William.

William smiled indifferently, and then said softly: "Mr. Bartender deals with all kinds of people here every day. You should know a lot of special people, right?"

The bartender stopped wiping the glass, frowned and asked, "Sir, what exactly are you trying to say?"

William smiled and said, "It's like this. I have a batch of things with special origins in my hand. Well, some specialties from the south. I want to find someone to sell them. I wonder if the bartender has any connections?"

The bartender was really interested this time. He put down his glass and asked curiously, "What goods do you have? If it's not too difficult, I should be able to eat them myself."

William covered his arms with his robe, pretending to be groping for something under his armpit, and took out a palm-sized gold ornament from the Fire Spirit's armband.This is a pendant from a powerful angel. Of course, the owner of the pendant was killed by a guy who doesn't speak martial arts A sudden attack and beheaded.

The style of the pendant is a female angel embraced by wings (actually, angels have no gender, unless they are about to fall). When the bartender saw this golden angel ornament, his eyes almost popped out.If it wasn't for his special origin, he would definitely not be able to recognize the origin of this strange object.

Golden Embrace of the Fallen - A magical item from the opposite side of Mount Paradise, when you are dying of wounds, hold on to it and it will heal your wounds.With each use of this trinket's magical effects, your mind grows wilder (away from order, towards chaos).

The bartender felt that his throat was a little dry, and he wanted to grab the pendant to take a closer look, but William avoided it.The bartender said a little uncertainly: "Where did you get this thing? If it's real, I'm afraid even if I sell my tavern, it won't be worth the value of this treasure."

William picked the corner of his eyes and said with a smile: "I don't want your tavern, what can I use it for, can I be a bartender like you? My friend, I want to know how much cash you can spend to buy this item?"

The bartender feels insulted, you can insult me ​​as a person, but you can't insult the profession of a bartender, of course, if you are a rich guy, that's a different story.He deliberately counted his savings with his fingers, and then laughed: "I have 740 gold reals in cash, and if you can give me a few days to raise funds, I can raise another [-] to [-] The payment of Jinlier. Of course, the premise is that this strange thing of yours is real." (Kinlier, one of the currency units unique to Waterdeep and recognized in the Sword Coast region, its subordinate currency units include silver healy, copper Biling.)
William threw the pendant to the bartender without hesitation, and said, "Take out your cash first, I need it urgently now. You can give me the rest in a few days."

The bartender stared blankly at the pendant in his hand. When he held it tightly, he felt that his thoughts suddenly became active and uncontrollable, like a runaway pony, so mischievous and fascinating.He looked up at William in surprise, and said, "This is a real guy! Where did you get this strange object? It is a very rare treasure from another world."

William shrugged and said with a smile: "Of course this is a real guy. I just killed a winged birdman not long ago, and then I picked this thing off his head myself."

The bartender felt that William was bragging, and he said: "You are joking! Sir. An angel with this thing can easily defeat a dozen of the most powerful fighters. You would never touch a single hair of such an angel in a hundred."

William shook his head and said, "Haha! Just think I'm joking! Now, hurry up and get the money."

The bartender looked at the angel pendant in his hand reluctantly, then handed it back to William, and at the same time said with a complicated expression: "I can't afford such an expensive strange thing, even if I take out all the money, I can't afford it." It’s not worth one-tenth of her value. But if you really want to sell, I can introduce you to a rich friend who likes to collect such valuable treasures the most.”

William did not retrieve the pendant, but asked curiously, "Who are you talking about?"

The bartender took a deep breath and said, "Nani Whistle, a reliable adventurer and wealthy mage. He is building his own tower in the coastal area. Nanny is a generous guy, and he will give you a reasonable price. Price. I can take you to him right now if you want."

William shook his head and said, "I don't have that much time, so give me all your cash now."

The bartender said in embarrassment: "But, I don't have so many..."

William smiled and said: "If you feel sorry, wait until you have collected enough money, or go to the generous mage yourself, and give half of the money sold to Mr. Kelben Olosan, he knows how to deal with these money."

The bartender finally smiled, and he said: "It turns out that you and Mr. Hei Zhang are friends! Well, I know what to do. Please believe me, I will sell your treasure for a good price. You wait Wait a minute, I'll fetch some Jinlier for you, I don't know how much you need?"

William said: "Give me as much as you have, I need to make a big purchase for a long trip."

The bartender turned and went to the storage room, and he came back after a while, carrying a leather bag, every time the bartender took a step, there was a rattling sound in the bag.

He handed the bag to William, and said: "Count I lent you, there are [-] Glory Coins (another name for Jinlier, because Waterdeep City is also called Glory City), which should be enough for you to make a wealthy purchase." .”

William nodded, and walked out of the tavern with the bag in hand, leaving only the bartender holding the gold pendant in a daze.
