Academic Gathering with Lich Colleagues

Chapter 40 The Value of Oriu

When the morning dew was evaporated by the sun, Lyle knocked on the door of Borui Manor. The lame gatekeeper looked impatient, but still maintained basic courtesy. After confirming Lyle's intention, let him He waited outside the door.

Because of Ralph's sick leave, he lost the opportunity to attend work. Taking advantage of his free time, Lyle just made some preparations.

I'm running out of savings.

There were only three Orioles gifted by Mr. Dragon in his pocket, and he planned to exchange some of them for Yule, so he thought of the only noble friend he publicly knew, Kevin Berry.As the glory of Rome, Oliu is a good collection and decoration. It is loved by nobles and can be said to be synonymous with its own nobility. Lyle believes that Kevin will give him a suitable price, even if he has no demand, he will not mind. , to help Lyle introduce a good buyer.

It didn't take long for the gate of Borui Manor to officially open, the size of which was like a small city gate, allowing two horses to enter in parallel.

The familiar Kevin sat on a large brown horse, with a dark green leather coat, golden shawl curly hair and a ponytail.

Kevin saw Lyle at his feet, smiled at him, turned over and got off the horse in a dashing manner, and there was no sign that he could not ride a horse three months ago.

Behind him, a man in chainmail was riding a horse, with arrows and hunting bows in the saddle pockets.

It was the knight of the Borry family, and his actions were not disrespectful.Aristocrats have the habit of traveling on horseback and never dismounting on the way. They believe that a stopover outside the destination means setbacks and changes in the itinerary. Therefore, when aristocrats encounter road congestion, they generally choose to detour, or Hit them when they think they can.

Kevin is a special case. This kind of behavior of dismounting as soon as he goes out is criticized, but he doesn't care, because there are generally no higher-level people around him.The reason he gave is also very real, looking down at people, his neck hurts.

"Haha, crime buster, did you come to find me because you reasoned out that I was going hunting?" It seemed that Kevin already knew that he was a sheriff.

Hunting was prevalent in the Middle Ages, and the noble lords were very keen on this sport. This was a good opportunity to maintain a fighting spirit and show strength. Hunting game and rare fur trophies were also sought after. Gradually, hunting became a social activity for the upper class. , As a noble, you can be unreasonable, you can be casual, as long as you use a good bow, people will still pursue you.The best season for hunting is in late autumn, but occasionally there will be summer. Of course, the prey will be much less, and the lush vegetation and the lack of fat prey are the reasons.

The church also likes this kind of activity very much, but their hunting targets are all convicted heretics or heretics, as well as witch hunting, which has become popular recently, and dragon hunting may have been popular more than ten years ago.

"It would be great if you could accompany me. I'm going to participate in more than a dozen hunting activities in the fall. Practice more now, so as not to laugh at the time, if you're here, Lyle, then I'm not the worst. That person." Kevin smiled, his blonde hair reflecting the charm of the sun.

"Little commoner, you can't compare with Master Kevin. Hunting is impossible. I can't even ride a horse. I'm here for something else, Kevin, do you know Oliu?"

"I know," Kevin stroked his chin, and he started to grow a beard. It seems that Baron Borrei has prepared quite a few blind date parties for his wild boy, "Oliu thing, my father probably has one The box, but I can't bring it out, he's too tight, I can take a look at it, can't touch it, I'm sorry, Lyle, I may not be able to satisfy your curiosity."

"No, I mean, here I am, some Oriou want to let go. You know, I'm short of money, but using Oriou is too flamboyant."

"No!" Kevin's voice increased a few degrees, "Where did you get Oriou?"

"Well...my friend gave it to me."

Kevin patted Lyle on the shoulder, "As expected, I didn't misunderstand, Lyle, I have a bright future, and I have risen so quickly. It seems that I am no longer your thickest thigh. I feel a little lost, Where's Oliu? Show me, touch me again, hurry up, I haven't touched it yet."

"What's there to touch, isn't it just gold?" Lyle casually complained and handed him an Orius.

"Cut, it's like you've touched gold. The most gold-like thing you've ever touched is the golden retriever on my head," Kevin took the gold coin, "It's true, and Like the Orioles I've seen, they are really ancient Roman gold coins." Kevin rubbed his hand on it, as if to engrave the touch in his palm.

"Lyle, how many do you want to change?"

"Two, I don't have a few." Anyway, it was a scholarship given by Mr. Julong. It's not very good to spend it, so let's keep one as a souvenir.

"I said Lyle, are you really close to any nobles?"

"Why do you think that if I take Oliu, I will definitely be with the nobles?"

"Maybe you don't know much about Oriou, so I'll tell you a little more."

"As an ancient Roman gold coin, although the circulation was very large at that time, as the currency of the empire, it was never implemented again after the empire was destroyed. That is to say, the number was limited. Just like the young man, now, they are almost never contacted by commoners. This is why my father treasures them. Oriu is the gold coin of the nobles. Therefore, the person who will give Oriu to you is definitely a great noble. Ah, and the title will not be lower than that of my father. At the level of a baron, if you have [-] Orioles, you will be considered a prominent family."

"Isn't there any other way to get Oriou?"

"Yes, Oriou is a noble gold coin, and dead nobles are also nobles. They will also use Oriou as a funeral item. This is why it is becoming more and more scarce. Some people are unwilling to let go even if they die. Ah. I see that you don't have the courage to dig the graves of the nobles."

"By the way, there may also be fallen nobles, but, how bad they are, they will trade Oriu for you. Can you be worth [-]% of Oriu? Or, you Look at a fallen noble who is in a desperate situation, and it happens that your medical skills can help him? Isn't that an idiot? He goes directly to the church and asks for a blessing, is it better than getting a knife from you?"

"..."

In this way, Mr. Julong is also a great noble, and the cup of extravagance is either rich or expensive.

"Okay, even if I find the golden thigh, how about it, the two Oriou can't be exchanged."

"Change! However, Lyle, I have a suggestion for you. If you don't want to, give me these two first, and I will give you the money another day. If you exchange with me, it is definitely not as good as exchange with my father. My capital is limited. , I will find a way to make my father bleed heavily, since you have fulfilled my dream of touching Oriou, I can't say anything to make you suffer."

"Are you that stupid?"

"What are you talking about? When I inherit the title, those are all mine. I just used a part of it in advance. This is an investment in you. After all, Lyle, you have a lot to do."

"Thank you, Kevin."

"Hey, I'm actually a little selfish. The old guy in my family keeps talking in my ear, saying that I don't know how to learn, what kind of ghost medical school, what kind of friends I make, and I'll take Oliu back to blind him. Let him understand how good my eyesight is!"

"Well, then I'll trouble you, Kevin."

"Okay." Kevin took another gold coin and kept it properly. "In a few days, within three days, I will go to your house to send you money."

"Row."
