Warhammer Throne

Chapter 384: , Hemgart: The Plague

The dwarves' goods were very popular, and the things were sold out quickly. The dwarves collected the gold and silver coins, left the market, and left directly outside the city of Hemgart.

"Isn't that the Rangers of the Angerand clan? It seems that Belleja is also here." Lane said to Suria with interest: "I didn't expect Bellegar to come here with the clan."

"Your Majesty King Bellega may have some ... value face, but he is not stupid. He came to investigate the market price and surrounding forces. In fact, he has helped us a lot since he came to your territory and reunited with his people. Dugan wouldn't make iron dragon guns. His Majesty Bellegar taught him the chief engineer of the Angland clan, Hal Haval-fisher. "The knight whispered.

"I don't know, the dwarf had originally planned to send you a set of meteorite armor. After seeing that his father had sent the armor, I asked them to make a set for the elder brother." Lane whispered.

"Brother? Angel?" Suria was a little strange.

"Yuli, isn't your brother my brother? We are a family." Lane muttered: "It's a waste to get a set of meteorite armor for Brother Angler, I don't think it's much use, Brother Angler The way to play is to chop chop, it does n’t make any difference whether it is rune secret silver plate armor or meteorite plate armor. "

"Poof ~" The knight couldn't help laughing, and she was also very happy. Although the words "your brother" and "brother" both refer to Julius, the meaning in them is very different.

She looked at the dwarves who were leaving the city curiously, and then said: "Oh, how come these dwarves come here to sell? We also need dwarf equipment in Brittania."

"Because those equipments are inferior goods or defective products." Ryan then spit out: "I have a good relationship with Bellega, he sold us first-class goods, but even if they are dwarves, they are in production. It is still inevitable to make some defective products. These dwarves will never use them. They are all sold to humans at a high price. Anyway, in the dwarf language, human means "manufactured defective products", but after all, , Even the dwarf ’s inferior goods are much better than the stuff made by many human craftsmen. "

Ryan and his party didn't go up to say hello to the people of Bellega. They strolled around the town for a while, and soon checked into the Oliver Hotel in the city.

This is a large three-storey hotel, located in the downtown area, in a deep alley near the market, due to the wrong time (just after the winter curtain festival), the hotel is relatively deserted, Lane and others greeted the hotel owner, the hotel The boss immediately opened the three most luxurious suites for Ryan and others to live in.

A group of people put things, Rudolph and Wagner went to the count of the border to approve customs clearance documents. Ryan and his team put the things away. The count looked at the wooden floors and hides of this hotel and nodded: "Olive has been doing more The bigger it is. "

The Oliver Hotel is part of the Oliver Chamber of Commerce. With the support of Lane, Oliver opened many hotels in Britannia and some places in the Empire.

There are many uses for opening a hotel, the biggest of which is not profit, but the collection of intelligence and internalization of transactions. Hemgart is an important border town with a bit of a pass, diplomatic relations and trade tariffs between the Empire and the Kingdom of Britannia The change, Hermgart will always be the first to know.

For businessmen, knowing the message is the most important, so Oliver opened the hotel in the castle of Monteverre and Helmgart, which is the most important trade between the Empire and Brittany. On the land trade route, Ryan had a headache about the surprisingly high tariffs of the Axe Pass, but he also had to admit that with the joint efforts of the Empire and Brittania, the safety of the Axe Pass could be guaranteed.

This is the way business is done. Risks are high, returns are high, risks are low, and returns are low. People always want investments with low risk and high income.

Are there any transactions with low risk and high returns?

There are only two kinds, one is a scam, and the other is a high-threshold transaction for the superior.

Just like the trade contract signed by Ryan and Tagris, this trade contract is in the true sense of low risk and high returns, but this kind of transaction is impossible for ordinary businessmen to complete. Human businessmen find high-quality trade in private, maybe Oncoming is a smelly face, even fireball.

"Oliver's business has grown bigger and bigger in recent years." Ryan looked down at Hemgart's building complex in the sea of ​​clouds. The city looked down on the mountainside to the vast plains in the distance beyond Rick's territory-unfortunately now It's winter, the mountains are filled with clouds and fog, and you can't see the distance.

"Oliver, when we first met him at Nord, he was still a small businessman." Teresa was wearing a Braunschweig and graceful gray shoulder-shouldered dress, with long black shimmering hair hanging down Behind the head, the sorceress tightened her white bear fur coat. She had a black crocodile leather bag on her hand: "Do you remember? Ryan?"

Both Suria and Veronica are very interested in this matter and have repeatedly asked.

"Of course I remember, I still remember Oliver's dress at that time, it was really strange." Ryan touched his chin: "I still remember his very strange dress, wearing gold and silver, and forcibly wearing armor. , When I said 'time is money', we were still marching on Scaville Mountain at that time. "

"Mr. Oliver? I rarely see him wearing gold and silver." Soria also said.

"That's because Oliver is rich now, Mrs. Suria, you know, unlike merchants, they are the opposite." Veronica wore a classic layered corduroy hip skirt, She smiled sweetly on her face: "Isn't it your impression that the merchants in Winford's court are plainly dressed, only to be promised?"

"Indeed, there are a few businessmen who do business on their father's side. Every time they meet them in the court, they are very simple and clean." Surya nodded thoughtfully, and the knight was young. Grew up in the court.

"The smaller the capital and the smaller the businessman, the more they have to wear gold and silver to show that they are financially and capable, and in turn, the more merchants with a large trading network and enough volume, the more low-key they should be." Veronica smiled, and the Witch of Galan explained to Suria: "Otherwise, once the nobility is upset, even if it is not killed, it is easy to be replaced. How can the merchant fight the nobility?"

"It turns out that it's no wonder that when my father saw the businessmen, they were all trembling and quietly speaking." Surya nodded again and again: "I remember that when he first saw Mr. Oliver, he was still very luxuriously dressed. Now, apart from wearing a gold ring and a silk dress, he does not wear any jewelry, just like an ordinary courtier. "

"The knight is different, Veronica, I heard that when Ryan first met you, he was just an elite warrior?" Teresa asked in turn with interest.

"Yeah, Ryan was just a ranger knight at the time, wearing a breastplate and a gray face, I still remember that I was in a bad mood at that time, raising my hand was a fireball, and Ryan was in his early twenties and was fireballed. The technique made his face scorched black, showing white teeth. "Veronica said casually." It was a little handsome face that burned like a dog. "

"Hahahahaha ~" The room was full of chuckles, only Ryan's old face flushed.

"Me too, when my mother and I went to the Nord court to participate in Ryan's promotion to the Kingdom Knights. At the banquet, Ryan actually pretended that something fell under the table and secretly peeped ..." Theresa's face was a little red, but Shaking Ryan's black history.

"That's it! Ryan, he particularly likes ..." Surya also joined the topic.

Ryan was said to be blushing, and quickly said you guys talk first, let me take a look.

The count quickly went downstairs, and even then he could still hear laughter upstairs from time to time.

Three women in one show.

The hotel owner was calculating the accounts. When he saw Ryan coming down, he immediately bowed down and said, "My Excellency, what is your order? Is there something wrong with the room?"

"There's no problem in the room, I just have something to ask you." Lane stood in front of the bar and whispered.

"Please ask Your Excellency." The hotel owner certainly knows who is behind the big boss Oliver. He looks around the environment. This is not the peak season for businessmen, and there are not many guests.

"Don't be so nervous, I'm just asking, what's the status of Helmgart?" Ryan waved his hand and signaled that he didn't want to ask any secrets: "Trade, security?"

"Not very good. Since Humgart was invaded by the Duke of Kasfan, although the Empire and Brittania have not affected the covenant, more businessmen are still on the sidelines, or follow the road. Marinburg trade, Earl Reinhardt-von-Markensen felt uneasy about the slowing down of trade volume. He recently tried to negotiate with Duke Volcard of the Duke of Montfort to slightly impose tariffs to encourage trade. " The boss said: "Of course, my count, there are still many caravans who trade through the axe to pass the pass."

"How about law and order?" Ryan was not surprised to hear the news, he then asked.

"The security is okay. The green orcs and the orcs have less activity recently." The hotel owner breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "However, it is rumored that Hemgart's sewers and mines are very deep and there are many Traces of rats infested, and mice as big as people! These mice often appear from sewers and mines, attacking livestock and kidnapping humans. "

"A rat so big ... Scavin the Ratman ?!" Ryan's face changed slightly, and he frowned: "Did the Earl Hemgart send troops to clean it?"

"Hush ~ my earl." The hotel owner hurried to look around and confirmed that no one was paying attention to it. Then he whispered: "Lord, the empire knows that there are not many Scavengers, only limited to the upper class nobility. . "

Ryan's brow furrowed tighter.

In Brittania, everyone knows the hazards of the Skaven ratmen. Since the founding of the Knights Kingdom for thousands of years, the intermittent engagement with the ratmen has not stopped, especially the most southern principality of Kakasong.

The Ratmen have never been able to invade on a large scale. This is thanks to the Wood Elves. The Wood Elves in the Ethororen Forest are the nemesis of the Ratmen. When the Ratmen come a few times, the Wood Elves beat them up and flee several times.

The empire is different. The last battle between the empire and the ratmen was hundreds of years ago. Under the deliberate low-key of the ratmen, the civilians have forgotten the existence of the Skaven ratmen, only recorded in the ancient nobles ’classics. There are Skaven murmurs, and much of the content is ambiguous.

"What is the solution for Count Reinhardt?" After entering the village, Lane knew that he was inconvenient to preach the threat of the Ratmen. After all, he was not an aristocrat of the empire.

"The Earl attaches great importance to this matter. He not only took part of his family's wealth to recruit a group of gutter cleaners, but also sent an army into the depth of the mine to check the situation, but this army has not yet returned." The hotel owner continued .

"Understood." Ryan thought that the Skaven Ratmen might be infiltrating the city, and he planned to wait for the two Rick Guards recruits to discuss with them when they returned.

After waiting for a while, Rick guards Rudolph and Wagner came back. They were full of grief and entered the hotel to sit down directly in the lobby: "Boss, come here for two glasses of fine dark ale, hurry."

"Hey! Yes, two lords." The innkeeper quickly picked up two glasses of dark beer from the beer barrel and delivered it to them, asking carefully: "Excuse me, what happened?"

"Is the customs clearance document approved?" Ryan asked curiously.

"No, Count Reinhardt is not at Earl's Castle ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Rudolph took a few sips of dark beer and said with dissatisfaction:" The servants stopped us for a long time, only after our inquiry. Tell us that the Earl of Reinhardt is not here, and they do n’t know where they went. The customs clearance document will not be sealed until the earl comes back, and the earl will come back at night, which means that he will be sealed tomorrow, and then apply, the day after tomorrow. set off. "

"Then it's okay, we'll just stay here for an extra day." Ryan shrugged. Everyone has trouble. Staying for another day is not a problem.

"It can only be like this." Wagner looked very open. The Rick guard recruit regarded this journey as a tour. He took the runner pioneer who was playing in his own hands. He said: "Speaking, I am in In the center of the city, I saw a cow that had been gnawed ... "

Lane chatted with Rudolph and Wagner in the lobby for a few minutes. Suddenly, the strong vibration of the ground and the sound of the house shaking came, and the beer in the hands of Rick's guard directly sprinkled on his face.

The Oliver's Hotel is shaking violently, and the dust is falling from the ceiling.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The earth-shattering explosion sounded far away from the hotel.

"What's going on? What happened?" Ryan and others were shaken to the ground, but these people were all professional soldiers, they immediately climbed up, and the knights of Rudolph and Wagner immediately began to serve two Ricks. The guards wear equipment.

Ryan climbed from the ground with his hands and feet. He ran to the door of the hotel and opened the door. Then, the oncoming scene made him open his mouth in surprise.

In the distance, billowing smoke was burning where the military camp of Hemgart was.

On the streets, large groups of ratmen as close to people are pouring out from the sewers, gutters, and corners of buildings, slaughtering civilians in Hemgart!

"Skaven ~ yesyes!"
