Not a Witch
Page 546
After the girl walked out of the room, a bartender entered the room to inquire.
"Boss, do you want to strike?" He thought about the girl's appearance, and his heart was throbbing.
"Let her leave safely, this is not something we can provoke." Dad sat in the room puffing, thinking about Lorraine Hill's goal, then untied the small bag, and fiddled with those shiny and beautiful gold coins .
"Okay, boss."
After receiving some useful information, Lorraine Hill took the girl out of the bar door, and the cold mountain air hit again.Refreshes and comforts.
"Let's go." After finishing speaking, the girl walked towards a corner of the city, where there were many foreign tourists.
Finally, when she was about to enter the residence of the Roentgen Chamber of Commerce, there was a burst of shouting and arguing.Several knights in black were awkwardly negotiating with the merchants.
Chapter 120 VII Lend a Helping Hand
Lorraine Hill heard the arguments between the two parties, and after a little attention, he realized that there was a conflict between the two parties because of the transaction.
It turned out that the trader sold a batch of wheat to these travelers in the northern border yesterday, but later these people went back and found that the wheat was short of two catties, which obviously did not meet the two catties agreed at the time.
"That's clear. Didn't you confirm it at the time? Now you're going back on your word." The vendor stood on the wooden box and loudly rejected these people, attracting the attention of the people around him.
"Do you think that we southerners are easy to bully? You guys do this, and you only talk about the weight after staying overnight. Isn't this bullying?" The group of northerners in black clothes below.
"However, it is indeed missing. Yesterday you said that it was too late and too cold, and you kept urging, and there was no time to check." A thin man from the north defended. Judging from his appearance, he seemed to be a scholar. It's rare to quarrel with others with a blushing neck and a thick neck like this, which is a bit lacking in momentum.
"Ha, don't you blame me? I've said it many times. Check it out yourself. Who knows if you secretly hid some of it when you went back to blackmail me." .
"Let me tell you, don't think about bullying a small person like me. This is Iron Hill City, the southern border of the empire, where the Royal Legion is stationed. The swords in your hands are not easy to use."
As he spoke, he looked around and saw a few legion soldiers patrolling the street. He smiled when he saw such a scene, and then ignored it, as acquiesced.
"You!" The following people were overwhelmed with anger, and were about to draw their swords, but were stopped by their companions.
"Don't, don't, let's just leave it at that, we'll figure it out when we go back." An older tourist from the north stopped them and walked to the other corner of the street.
"Just let that cunning guy go like this, I can kill him with a single sword." The speaker was a knight of War Sequence 4, he was wearing armor and a black hood, and his accent was very rough, no As standard as the middle of the empire.
"Don't cause trouble. This place is too far from the north. If there is a conflict with the local nobles and military officers, we will suffer in the end." The old man sighed helplessly.
Are you a northerner? Lorraine recalled what he learned in Emenas. There is a cold place, mostly forests, hills, and a small part of the plains are covered with frost, and only a small part of the year is warm.
"You go back first, Miss Charlene should have helped us arrange a place to live." Lorraine Hill said to the girl beside her, and then asked the familiar Roentgen caravan members to lead her in.
"En." The girl agreed, waved to Lorraine Hill and walked in.After getting along these two days, she gradually no longer was as scared as she was at the beginning.
After watching the girl go in, Lorraine Hill turned and walked towards the northerners over there, just as they also entered a nearby restaurant for dinner.
"Hello, do you need something to eat?" As soon as I entered, the clerk walked over quickly, and I don't know whether it was enthusiasm or simply being attracted by the girl's appearance.
"Let's have some drinks, and then I want some bread to pack." Actually, Lorraine Hill was not hungry, after all, he had just come out of the bar, but since he came in, he didn't order anything, so it didn't make sense.
"Okay." The clerk quickly wrote it down, and was greeted by other customers.
The girl glanced at the environment in the store. There are not many customers now, probably not because of the meal time. Those knights in black from the northern border are particularly conspicuous.
After sitting for a while, Lorraine Hill prepared his speech, then got up and walked over.
"Hello, I just heard you arguing with that vendor outside, so I came here to understand the matter." Lorraine Hill greeted generously, although he was a little nervous, but at least on the surface he was not as restrained as before. up.
"Hello, what's the matter?"
These people looked at the girl cautiously, and saw that she was wearing a beautiful silver armor with a long sword hanging around her waist. She seemed to be an adventurer.Although they are very beautiful, they are not familiar with the place, and they don't want to cause trouble.
"I want to know about the situation in the north, because I heard that there was a snow disaster there recently, and a friend of mine happens to be there." The girl's words were true, and some of her former classmates were indeed from the empire. north.
Hearing such words, several people relaxed a little, but still answered cautiously.
"Now the snow in the north has not stopped for more than a year, and food and medicines are very scarce, so we went south to purchase." This is no secret, and you can guess it with a little inquiry.
"So that's the case, has such a situation happened before, or is it just that this year is special." Lorraine Hill asked curiously.
Because this girl is very good-looking, the knights in black explained patiently.
"This kind of situation has happened in previous years, but it is not as severe as this year. There have been times when it has gradually eased in the past, but now it seems that it will continue next year, which is very dangerous."
Since this world has mana and magic power, the change of weather will also be affected by more reasons, which is not as balanced as in the previous life.
"I heard from the wizards of Trey's family that this is most likely caused by the ice elves in the north, but there is no concrete evidence so far, and it is difficult to target." A young knight suddenly spoke, expressing the resentment he had suppressed for a long time.
"Ice elves?" the girl asked in surprise.
"Fernans!" A big knight beside the table frowned and called out the young knight's name, as if he was unhappy with his random disclosure of information.
"Yes, my lord." The young knight immediately bowed his head in shame, expressing that he shouldn't talk nonsense.
"Sorry, miss, do you have anything else to do? If not, please leave." He has short black hair and a pair of sword eyebrows are particularly eye-catching.
"If it's disaster relief, I think I can help a little bit," the girl said.
"Hehe, Miss Swordsman, stop joking. The food shortage in our territory cannot be solved by a few sacks." No malice, but no anger.
"I know." Lorraine Hill thought about how this would show that he had this strength.
The other witches knew about her coming to the empire, but what they didn't know was her current identity and whereabouts, and if she wanted to do other things, she couldn't use the identity of Lorraine Hill.
Because of the sage of Crancia, the energy that can be aroused under the title of Star Witch is too great.If she makes it clear, I am afraid that many followers will come from all over the mainland the next day, going through fire and water for her.
Now Clancia has a lot of people who admire her. The girl knows it in her heart, but sometimes she is very distressed. She can't use these people without scruples. She always feels that if she does that, she is manipulating other people's lives, which makes her feel a little hindered.
Girls will only use this power unless it is for the better future of everyone.And the things that are currently being done in the empire are actually a gray area. If something goes wrong, it will be the same as those invaders in history, leading to an ending that runs counter to one's expectations.
That's why she agreed not to use her original identity.
Only the bottom-up innovation within the empire will not leave hidden dangers in the end.
These thoughts in his mind disappeared for the time being, and Lorraine Hill looked up at the few people in front of him.
"I'm from Clancia. Compared with the empire, the food production there is very sufficient, so the price will be cheaper."
"Klancia? It's too far away." For people from the northern border, Kerancia is quite a strange place, and the same is true for the Seven Snow Kingdoms. They rarely leave their hometown, and only a small number of people from the southern border of the empire come. Pass.
"It looks far away, but in fact, the border between Clancia and the Empire is actually very close."
"Crossing Longji Province, Chixin Province, and Longya Province is the border of Crancia. If you ride a horse, you can get there in about a week or two. This is still the case of walking on a mountain road." Lorraine Hill explained.
"It sounds good, but Crancia is still too unfamiliar to us. And the border is also very strict on trade." The great knight seemed to have considered this method, but later gave up.
"Actually, I have a friend who is a member of the Chamber of Commerce in Crancia. Their Chamber of Commerce stores a lot of food, and even a lot of fruit and wine." The girl blinked and said that she had a friend.
Although Lorraine Hill's identity cannot be used, it is not a big problem to use Lacey's identity to do something indirectly.Before I knew it, I already had so many vests, the girl thought belatedly.
"This..." Several people looked at each other a few times. Although they had strong doubts and disbelief, they couldn't turn a blind eye to the urgent need to raise food at this moment.
"Okay, I think we need to have a good talk." The big knight asked the clerk to add a chair, let the girl sit down, ordered a delicious drink for her, and then asked for details seriously.
After some explanations and consultations, several people asked in detail about the price, place of origin, year, general type, and mode of transportation.At first they just held the idea that they could understand as much as they could, and they didn't expect this girl to be able to answer all the answers. After all, this is a very professional matter, and generally only veterans of the chamber of commerce will understand.
But what I didn't expect was that this girl who looked like an adventurer answered and explained all the conditions and situations they asked in an orderly manner.Many of these professional details hadn't even occurred to them before.
"If you are the eldest lady of a certain chamber of commerce, we think it is more credible." The great knight commented, and several people also believed that the girl dressed as an adventurer was pretending to be a businessman.
They even thought about their reasons for pretending.It must be in this way to make it easier to travel within the empire. After all, the two countries have just ceased fighting. If the identity of the heir of the Crancia Chamber of Commerce is revealed, they will be kidnapped or something like that.
"Very smart lady, let's toast you first." Although the matter has not yet come to fruition, they have also seen a lot of hope, so they are not stingy with the money for the drink.
"Sorry, I don't drink, just juice." Lorraine Hill waved her hand cutely, raised the green berry juice beside her, and drank it in small sips.
"I live near here. I will transcribe other specific details later. When you take the letter to the border and contact the Chamber of Commerce in Clancia, you should be able to get help." After solving this small matter, Luo Landhir stood up to say goodbye.
"Let's meet here at noon tomorrow."
"Then we will look forward to it." The great knight smiled and clapped his hands, watching the girl leave.
After Lorraine Hill left, these northerners continued to eat lunch and discuss the girl just now.
"She is very familiar with the procedures of the chamber of commerce. It can be seen that at least she has worked in the chamber of commerce."
"And he knows the cost and price very well, unlike those young ladies who are not in harmony with the world."
"It's surprising that there is such a person, and let us run into each other. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing."
"Let's just leave it at that. There's no good solution at the moment. We don't have much money, and we're short on time."
After talking, they finished their lunch and left the restaurant.
After returning to the station, Lorraine Hill sorted out the information just now, first wrote a letter, put it in a bamboo tube, then opened the sealed book Si Ye gave her, and summoned a Sequence 3 Silverfinch to help her Deliver the letter, and then go back to the room to rest.
Silverfinch's speed was extremely fast, and it took only one night to cross the long counties and borders. In the morning of the next day, the girl received a reply letter from the Crancia border.
[Hi Miss Lacey.
We have received your letter. According to your instructions, we will start to allocate grain from the interior now, and we will be able to raise the corresponding amount in about a week.
However, the trade between Crancia and the Empire is currently restricted. We cannot directly ship food to the Empire, and we can only stockpile it at the border. If your friends over there need it, please ask them to prepare documents or certificates for customs clearance.
Afterwards, we will send members of the chamber of commerce to wait at the exclusive market on the border. If your friends want to find us, please follow the following codes to connect.....
——So far, Lucas, your loyal follower, the president of the Dragonsong Branch of the Carites Chamber of Commerce. ]
Seeing the name at the end of the letter, the girl showed a slight smile. This Lucas can be regarded as an old man of the chamber of commerce. He was the one who wrote to him in the war-torn area during the West Wind Revolution, but he did not expect it to be him again this time.Everyone is having a good time too.
Then the next step is to wait.I don't know how long the heavy snow in the northern border of the empire will last. Maybe I should ask tomorrow why I have something to do with the ice elves again.
Aren't they in the far northern continent? Could it be that these ice elves can affect the climate and environment on the western continent because they are separated by the sea?It's really unbelievable.
And this time the Northern Territory was hit by a disaster, the Emerald Forest might not have a better time, because they are also located in the northeast of the empire, even if they are close to the sea, they are still very close to the Northern Territory.
These thoughts gradually lingered in his mind, and Lorraine Hill took a bath after a long absence, and his silver hair was submerged in the tub, floating on the water.
Anyway, there is no one else in the room, so there is no need to hide like during the day.Lorraine Hill released a small fireball in the hot tub, while heating the water, he also relaxed leisurely, no longer thinking about those complicated things.
In the warm tub, water vapor gradually filled the air. The girl rested against the wall of the tub with her eyes closed, and the water rippled slightly.
The mountains and forests outside the window are snowing, and the room is warm.
Chapter 120: Stage of Destiny
A week later, Lorraine Hill bid farewell to the Roentgen Chamber of Commerce, and left with the girl rescued from Viscount Morrow, heading for Longjiao Province, which is in the north of the southern border, near the middle of the empire.
"I didn't expect to say goodbye so soon." Charlene looked at the young girl in front of her, feeling quite emotional in her heart. When they first met, she thought she was a young lady who had run away from home, but after getting along with her, she felt more and more This girl is unusual, not only in strength, but also in knowledge, which are far beyond ordinary people.
It's all because Mecia was too shy when we first met, which caused me to have these misunderstandings.Miss Charlene found a reason for herself.
"Is Mesia going to Longjiao Province this time?"
