Super Floating City

Chapter 9: Caravan

  Stephen Zhou first changed a set of clothes, and then mixed into the tavern for information.

   Normally, the tavern is a good place for the aborigines to brag and pretend to be. Here you can hear all kinds of drunks bragging about their glorious past. One day allowed Stephen Week to get a lot of useful information, but it was limited to the perspective of the aborigines, and most of the information was limited to the northern region. This planet is very similar to Saturn. With the blue star as the standard, the volume of Saturn is more than 700 times, and the maximum distance that is currently known from the aboriginal population is only the South Valley Wind Valley. Travelling takes about a month, I am afraid The maximum area distance is not half of that of Middle-earth.

  If you mark it with a lighted map, the currently known intelligent biological activity area is only dusty dots on this planet.

  The exploration area of ​​indigenous civilizations disappointed Stephen Week a bit, but considering the extent of current civilizations is also reasonable. It takes a long time to fully explore such a large planet, even if it is scanned with a floating city.

  As a legendary alchemist, Stephen Zhou is [Eternal Life], although immortality does not mean immortality, but he still has a lot of time to squander. The alchemist's pursuit of life is immortality, immortality, but it is easy to pursue immortality, but it is difficult to want immortality.

  As for the immortality of the soul, it is the ultimate meaning of alchemy!

   The bar sells ale, not only has low alcohol content, no fragrance, rough taste, turbid liquor, but also has a sour taste. But even this kind of wine is a rare enjoyment for the aboriginal people, most of the town residents are satisfied with just a drink. This is almost difficult for Stephen Week, who is already used to top wine making. The food is the simplest cooking method. There is no seasoning for pepper, MSG, soy sauce, honey, cream, etc. It is just cooked and grilled with salt. Sugar belongs to the category of luxury goods, and spices are extremely expensive.

  After a short observation, Stephen Zhou quickly locked in his goal.

   It was a bearded middle-aged male human, a citizen of Southland, tall and burly, his weapon was a two-handed sword, a merchant and a warrior, and he sold medicine, fur and metal to and from Southland and Howling City.

   He is the leader of a caravan, with fifteen guards, six men, five camels, three carriages, and a daughter.

The caravan is about to go to the Windwind City to deliver the goods. The commodities are the spices, crafts and cloth in the southern border. The daughter is the head of the caravan. There are seven people in the southern border, three highlanders, two dwarves, two Half-elves and a Yalong, all of them are people from the South, and they were obviously a bit smarter by the Normans. After initial contact with the intelligent races of this world, Stephen Zhou became more and more certain that the planet had encountered interstellar colonies. Alien races have introduced races, animals, and plants from many other worlds, and they have undergone aberrations when they intersect with native creatures. There have been serious signs of retrogression in civilization, but the specific reasons are still unknown.

  Stephen recruited the maid with strong makeup in the tavern to come over, and then took out a few silver coins and stuffed into the other party's chest and whispered a few words.

   Soon the barmaid brought a plate with a smile, and placed a glass of ale in front of the merchants. She smiled and pointed to the position of Stephen Week: "That guest invites you!"

   For a time, many eyes were cast.

The middle-aged man headed frowned slightly, and gave a glance to the person next to him, and then sat directly in front of Stephen Zhou with a glass of ale. This southerner was close to two meters, even if he sat down, he was one higher than Stephen Zhou. At the head, he put the ale down heavily like an old river and a lake said: "Eden, the president of the Maple Leaf Chamber of Commerce. Why did you suddenly ask us for a drink?"

   finished, he could not help looking up and down Stephen Zhou.

After simple tidying up, Stephen Zhou finally looked like a savage. Eden focused on the palm of his hand, without any calluses, looks white and slender, and did not seem to have received any combat training and hard work, and his skin was delicate. It’s like a woman. It’s a long time to be respectful and good before you can make a man so smart. The birth of such people is generally very good, either a noble child or a rich businessman, but the northern customs are tough unless the noble lady will develop him like this, otherwise even noble children will have calluses after training.

   The danger is very low.

  Eden judged the height and size of Stephen Week, and immediately reduced his danger to below the civilian level. Such a ‘small man’ could easily fall down on his caravan, and the opponent did not even have a weapon on his body.

   "Steven Week."

   He looked at the burly man in front of him and smiled, "A wandering minstrel. I heard that you are going to Rinfeng City. Recently, the road is not very peaceful. I want to catch a ride along the way."

   "Of course, I will pay."

   Troubadour?

   is really a young person born of nobility, only they will be so boring.

In order to make himself more persuasive, Stephen Zhou stood up and smiled: "If there are robbers on the road, I worry that I can't handle it alone. So I hope you can take me to the Windwind City by the way, when you get there I will leave by myself."

   Hitchhiking is a thing that caravans often encounter.

   There may be many dangers in the wild. Both urban residents and travellers will take a car after leaving their place of residence, visit relatives and friends to transport goods and carry gifts, and the small caravan will occasionally earn extra money. It is usually enough to bring one or two silver coins with the dry food to follow the caravan. If there is a requirement, the charge will be higher. The Maple Leaf Caravan followed a group of single merchants, some from the South and the North. The charges from the South were high, and the charges from joining the North were halfway. Basically, caravans with escorts might encounter them while staying. Travellers hope to take the ride. Occasionally, there are urban residents on the road who want to go to other places. Basically, they travel together or follow the caravan. It takes courage and strength to move alone in the wild.

   "Twelve silver coins. Meet in the morning at the south gate."

After confirming that there was no danger in Stephen Week, Eden smiled and raised his glass to touch him before returning to his seat. After seeing him coming back to other caravan guards, he raised his glass and gestured to Stephen Week and took a sip. The cowhide blew loudly. If Eden didn’t talk to Stephen Zhou, they wouldn’t drink this glass of wine. These caravan guards are all experienced veterans.

   Twelve silver coins can improve the caravan's food for a week.

  Eden looked like Stephen Zhou as a rich man, and reported him the highest price for the guard.

After negotiation, Stephen went to a hotel to rest for one night. The wooden house was dirty with bedding, the bowl was pottery, the bed was covered with dry grass, and there were small fleas like bugs. This Nima was treated as a single room. They are all grunts, and occasionally they can hear the cry of the guardian crying cheap cheap warbler.

   This is Steven Zhou’s first day in the indigenous civilization.

He arrived near the South Gate early the next morning. There were already many people gathered here. Three or five small merchants who were going to sell fur at the Windwind City, an urban resident who went to visit relatives, and went all the way to sell. A small group of goods traveling businessmen, the team has a total of 50 or 60 people, six or seven camels, five carriages, a few other animals carrying goods, and a smell of feces in the air.

   is responsible for collecting the money is Eden's daughter, a young woman with a face mask.

   The cold wind in the north is like a knife. The caravan does not wash their faces no matter whether they are men or women who go out and run, so they look dirty on the face, but this can also protect the skin of the face, otherwise it is easy to dry and frostbite.

It took the team a long time to start. Eden’s daughter collected the money and went to count the goods. They would buy some medicinal materials and sell them in the city of Fengfeng. The caravan had to support more than ten escorts, and the profit was so little. Points accumulated. The others were walking with the team. Before the departure, Eden came to Stephen Week and shouted: "There is a llama there that is still empty. If you feel tired, you can go up and sit for a while."

   This treatment is unavailable to other people.

The camel is a large animal, belonging to the mixed race of the dragon, omnivorous, with humps before and after, unicorns, thick limbs, a head like a rhinoceros, gentle temperament after domestication, in order to ensure the physical strength and endurance of the camel The team was fed three points forage, five points for grain, and two points for meat.

   This product tastes like a warhorse.

  The most important members of the caravan are these camels, and only they can travel long distances to transport large amounts of goods. They have specially equipped veterinarians and folks to take care of them.

The mighty group of people is not slow to move forward. UU reads www.uukanshu.com. The ethnic endurance in this world is very good, the soles of the feet are thick and thick, and there is no need to rest on the road of dozens of miles. The powerful Normans He can also carry along with dozens of pounds of fur. Caravan escorts have horses but don't ride much. They spend half of their time on the lead, probably to save horsepower. Occasionally, there are muddy roads where horses are used to pass.

   took a half-hour rest at noon.

Eden’s daughter saw that Stephen Chow did not bring any salute and called him to eat in the past. The food was a hodgepodge in a pot. The caravan guards had two points of meat in one pot. The caravan man had only a little dried meat in one pot. Bring your own dry food.

As the leader of the caravan, Eden eats with the guard. His daughter also sits next to the mouth and eats. Although he is from the South, he is also close to 1.58 meters tall. His amber eyes are very big. He will peek at Stephen Weekly from time to time. A glance, but after comparing his height, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

   Although the poet looks handsome and handsome, he is too small and a little thin.

The caravan guards basically don’t talk much. The most nagging is actually the Yalong, with green skin, lizard head, dark red eyes, and mouth full of teeth. They are descendants of the Yalong who have been reproduced for many generations, and basically have no inheritance. What ability, but the strength is very strong, and the resistance to toxins is very high.

  Basically unless there is an awakening to become a dragon vein warlock, otherwise there are so many talents of sub-dragon species.

  Most of the Yalong people in this world have been reproduced for many generations, and some have been mixed with the lizard people. Only the nobles of the Dragon City still retain the blood of the half-dragon. These nobles basically do not marry the outside world.

   Everyone has no unusual reaction to the existence of the Yalong. It seems that the world has completed a certain degree of racial integration in a long time.
