Chapter 133 Blue Ocean Market
There were only three people in this small building, and the rangers searched around again, but they couldn't find any secret passages or secret rooms. Make plans after you wake up.

In addition, the rangers also found a lot of interesting things in the small building: ledgers, maps, and a notebook written in an encrypted language. Long, things will soon have the next step.

He paid a little attention to the maps, and one of them looked very rough, and the terrain was seriously out of shape. At first glance, it looked like a non-professional private work. Except for the ones that no one could understand, he could barely recognize it. Insula was drawn on the map, and the specific point was near his stronghold. The fake camp he built was also marked by the opponent's circle, and there were even some strange markings for deeper places.

This map reveals the truth, the other party obviously has plans for him, it is definitely not a simple matter of selling mushrooms for money.

The elves sat on the ground in a circle, took out a small piece of bread wrapped in green leaves from their pockets, and ate it with water. This is the black technology of the elves. A little bit can fill the stomach and provide soldiers with the energy they need for a day's battle. It can be called the perfect military ration.

Tang Zhao once seriously asked the other party for the formula. This thing can greatly relieve the logistics pressure, and eating delicious food in wartime can also effectively boost morale. Franken unanimously vetoed it, on the grounds that this formula is a family secret, involving elves' beliefs and culture, and will never be passed on to the outside world.

Of course he hasn't given up yet, this thing is of great value, but now is not the time, he is never in a hurry.

In the darkness, Andrea opened her eyes. After a moment of panic, she quickly calmed down and began to observe the surrounding environment.

The curtains were not closed, and she could tell from the dim light from the outside world that this was still her stronghold, not somewhere outside the city. Take it easy.

However, the relief was only for a moment, and in a blink of an eye, her face was filled with fear again - since the other party stayed here confidently, it is possible that he did not intend to keep her alive.

After all, she was a child who grew up in a slum, and she had seen many things. Although she was afraid, she did not lose her mind. Looking around, there was a tall figure standing in the shadow opposite her. She couldn't see it because of the light at night. clear appearance.

"You were the last one to wake up. It seems that it's not just your appearance. You didn't inherit the woodland residents' resistance to toxins. You just have a meager blood."

"What bloodline are you talking about? I really don't know anything." Andrea didn't understand what he said, but she could hear the complicated mood of the person in front of her.

"Don't you know? That's the best, so you don't need to add trouble to yourself." The tone of the thin and tall man in front of him returned to normal, "Then, it's business, and I'm going to ask you a few questions, just answer them truthfully. Those two friends woke up much earlier than you, and they told us what they should say and what they should not say, we know very well that you are the mastermind, and probably know your plan, and lying will not do you any good."

Andrea nodded calmly on the surface, but she was terribly flustered in her heart. She was very clear about how her two companions were. If they didn't really see the benefits this time, they would have quit halfway.

If such unreliable people were tortured to extract confessions, they didn't even need to be interrogated. Everything they knew would be told like beans.

After thinking for a few seconds, she slowly said: "I will do everything honestly, can you guarantee my safety?"

The figure in front of him shrugged: "If I were the conductor, then I wouldn't mind giving you my guarantee, but I'm just a person in charge of the work, and I can't guarantee anything."

Hearing this, Andrea was silent for a few seconds, and finally she nodded emphatically: "Well, what do you want to hear, I will try my best to tell you everything I know, and I hope you can save my life. Didn't do anything too extreme."

As soon as this remark came out, Tang Zhao, who was hiding in the shadows and observing everything, was a little surprised. He glanced at the woman quite unexpectedly: Obviously, she had roughly guessed the origin and purpose of everyone, and she didn't know whether it was a guilty conscience or careful observation. , Tang Zhao personally prefers the latter.
-
Indeed, as she said, she was very cooperative in the back, and she answered whatever the elf asked, clearly and orderly, without too many flowery rhetoric, which made people sound very comfortable, especially after Tang Zhao had just experienced dealing with the other two. This is even more so with the extortion of confessions by individuals.

They were a little frightened, and they all stuttered, intermittently and repetitively, which was a torment for the audience. In the end, the elf ranger lost his patience and changed people halfway through.

In short, the final result was good. Tang Zhao finally figured out the motives of these human beings, and it was very simple. They were just trying to make money.

Tang Zhao made a good guess. The human merchant Jacques took over the trade with Insula, and the power of the Serif Chamber of Commerce he represented increased. With proper operation, it jumped from the second top chamber of commerce in Luford to one of the top chambers of commerce. .

Under such a big background, a human named Andrea saw the opportunity and began to use his own methods to track down the source of goods from the chamber of commerce. Selev chamber of commerce did a good job of blocking news, but she was still involved in the transportation team through her connections. Found some clues from it.

The following things were similar. She used her little savings to issue commissions to collect information related to Insula. Because of insufficient funds, she also began to buy other things found by adventurers. She became a second-hand dealer. This is a The secondary market that big bosses look down on, Luford is not a coastal commercial city-state, and the related construction is not perfect, it belongs to a very profitable blue ocean market.

After doing this for a while, the income was not bad, so she took this as her main business, but she was still thinking about the goblin handicrafts, and she never gave up her search for goblin settlements.

[There is probably someone behind her, but she is kept in the dark. 】

After listening to the other party tell his story, this is Tang Zhao's first feeling.
