Chapter 384 Strange Land

"Your Excellency, you are asking the right person!"

I saw Eya grinning, then patted his rather tall chest and said: "The little girl is a well-known informant in the Principality of Shanjing!"

Having said that, Eya's slender eyelashes flickered, and she leaned forward slightly, making a skillful finger rubbing motion towards Lei Xiao.

He continued to smile and said: "However, you must also know that our Shanjing Principality rarely communicates with the outside world, and is rarely known to the outside world. As the saying goes, rare things are valuable, and information is even more so. There’s a small price to pay.”

"So that's it, I understand."

Lei Xiao smiled lightly, and immediately understood what the other party meant.

For me, the problem that can be solved with the golden dragon is obviously not a problem.

Immediately afterwards, Lei Xiao's mind moved, and ten golden golden dragons flashed on the palm of his hand, and then handed it to this petite businesswoman.

"As expected of a friend introduced by Uncle Kunbu, it really is very generous!"

Seeing the shiny gold coin, Eya's starry eyes lit up, raised his eyebrows at Lei Xiao, and said, "Since it was introduced by a friend, I'll give you a [-]% discount."

After saying that, she quickly took eight golden dragons from Lei Xiao's hand with a face full of joy.

"He's still a very principled guy."

Lei Xiao shrugged slightly, and then put the remaining two golden dragons back into the space bracelet.

"Then, may I ask this new friend from the Lengyan Kingdom, who exactly does he want to know about the Principality of Shanjing?"

After receiving Lei Xiao's golden dragon, Eya's expression became more enthusiastic. She greeted Lei Xiao and Lin, sat down at the simple square table next to the container, and asked with a smile. , as if a big deal had just been negotiated.

"This person's name is Burt, and he is currently serving as the general of the kingdom in the Cold Flame Kingdom."

Smiling slightly, Lei Xiao, who had just sat down on the wooden chair, cut straight to the point: "General Burt is not only a long-established fourth-rank senior expert, but also, in the Lengyan royal family, leads a The strength of the legion is considered to be in a high position."

After a pause, Lei Xiao looked straight into the other party's starry eyes and said, "In the Principality of Shanjing, there is such a remarkable person, so everyone must have known about it, right?"

"You mean him?"

Hearing this, Eya's exquisite face suddenly showed a weird look.

She put the golden dragon she got back on the table in front of Lei Xiao without hesitation, then shook her head and said, "Sorry sir, I have never heard of this name, if you ask If it is this person, then please leave as soon as possible, the little girl doesn't know anything."

"Oh?"

Seeing the other party's face suddenly changed, Lei Xiao pushed the gold coin in front of the other party again, and said calmly: "It's okay, I just asked casually, there is another reason for our visit this time, and that is the need for large quantities White jade ore, I wonder if you still have it in stock?"

"If it's just white jade ore, the little girl can provide some help."

A somewhat reluctant smile appeared on Eya's fair face, and he said, "To tell you the truth, recently, a large vein of white jade ore was discovered in the mining area of ​​our Shanjing Principality, and mining is being stepped up. "

"And the little girl happens to have the exclusive right to sell this mine. If you need anything, the little girl can give you priority in supplying it to you in the future."

Having said that, Eya couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, with a look of relief.

"Then do it."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, then with a thought, he took out another bag of gold coins, handed it to the other party, and said with a smile: "These are right as a deposit, and I will find someone to contact you later matters."

"Thank you for your trust!"

Seeing that the bag was full of shiny golden dragons, Eya's star pupils lit up again, and he quickly put the gold coins into his arms.

"Okay, let's go here first."

Nodding to the petite and dainty Shanjing Principality businesswoman in front of him, Lei Xiao smiled faintly, stood up from the wooden chair, and walked out of the shop with Lin.

"Your Excellency, go slowly! I wish us a happy cooperation!"

And Eya also stood up quickly, sent Lei Xiao and Lei Xiao to the door of the store, and said goodbye in a warm tone.

When I came back to the bustling street, I saw Lin who was following closely beside Lei Xiao. She couldn't help but frowned and said, "My lord, the businesswoman just now obviously knows something about Bert. But he kept his mouth shut."

At this time, under the influence of the illusion cloak, although Lin's clothes were very ordinary, her appearance was much more ordinary.

However, the heroic spirit on his face has been reduced by half, on the contrary, there is a trace of unexpected charm, which attracts some passers-by around him to look sideways.

"Indeed, otherwise, she wouldn't have blurted out "You mean him?" in the first place, a response that obviously knew something. "

Slightly nodding his head, Lei Xiao looked at the bustling shops around him and said, "Moreover, a shrewd businessman can spit out the golden dragon again, so it can be seen that this giant ax general Bert Behind it, there is obviously an unknown past."

"My lord's analysis is very reasonable."

A sassy voice sounded, Lin, who still had her long hair tied behind her head, leaving only two strands hanging down from her left and right ears, asked again, "Then what should we do next?"

"Our three goals for coming here, among them, the problems about the Sky Pterosaur and the white jade ore have been successfully resolved, and only the last one is left, which is to learn more about the information of the giant axe general Bert, and then, as before, the orange white The same, in order to finally subdue the opponent, make sufficient preparations."

With a slight nod towards Lin, Lei Xiao slowly withdrew his gaze and responded, "However, as you and Kunbu said before, this small country in the mountains is quite mysterious. There are a lot of places that don't conform to common sense."

"And these things, we are not sure whether they are related to the giant axe general Burt."

Having said that, Lei Xiao couldn't help showing curiosity again, and continued: "Therefore, the next action will naturally revolve around Bert, and at the same time investigate and investigate these strange things. place."

"What the lord said is very true. When the subordinates lived here temporarily, they didn't realize that there was any significant difference between this place and other regions. Judging from the current situation, it is indeed quite strange."

On Lin's fair face, her long and slender eyebrows were about to frown together, and she said thoughtfully, "Master, let's go back to the hotel just now to investigate, after all, it was there that my subordinates met before. It is still unknown what new clues may be discovered.”

"Right on my mind."

Nodding his head slightly, Lei Xiao's dark eyes moved, and he continued to observe the lively street scene around him.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion at the corner of the street ahead.

Looking along the crowd, Lei Xiao noticed.

I saw a young mercenary in the caravan that entered the city together, who was at a loss, surrounded by a group of local residents. Judging from the expressions of these local residents, they were obviously very angry.

And the leading short and fat businessman immediately squeezed into the crowd, and after a playful smile, he pulled the young mercenary, who was still in a daze, from the angry crowd to the gate of the hotel not far away.

However, because the incident happened far away from Lei Xiao, and the environment on the street was very noisy, Lei Xiao couldn't tell what they said.

"My lord, it seems that this young mercenary seems to have done something that aroused the resentment of the local residents."

When the flow of people returned to normal, Lin couldn't help showing a look of contemplation, and said thoughtfully.

"That's how it should look."

With a slight nod, Lei Xiao immediately began to speak, and said to Lin, and the six people who were hidden under the invisibility cloak, Knotweed, Ye Cang, Chao Yan, Bai Wei, A Bing, and A Ling: " Alright, let's go back to the hotel and have a look."

Walking straight back to the hotel, Lei Xiao noticed.

In the rather spacious hall, the chunky businessman was saying these things to the young mercenary with a serious face.

Seeing Lei Xiao and the others enter the door, the short and fat businessman came up to greet him, and said with a smile on his face: "Your Excellency, you are back! I have already booked the room for you. It is the innermost part of the second floor of the hotel. The most luxurious large-scale suite here, let alone two of you, even ten people can easily live there!"

After finishing speaking, the chunky businessman handed a simple and simple brass door key to Lei Xiao's hand.

"Well done."

Slightly nodding, Lei Xiao took the key from the other party, pulled the short and fat businessman aside, and then asked, "What happened on the street just now?"

"So you saw it too."

The greasy face of the short and fat businessman was full of helplessness, and he responded: "It's that new mercenary who doesn't understand the rules here, and was almost besieged by these local residents. You know, the folk customs here, in the Simultaneously, but also very tough."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao couldn't help raising his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "Actually, it's the first time we've come to this mountain country, and we just joined your caravan temporarily because we heard that foreigners are not liked here. I wonder if there are any taboos here?"

"Your Excellency, you are asking the right person."

The chunky businessman dragged Lei Xiao into the lobby of the hotel, where he sat down on a sofa in a secluded corner, and then responded: "I am different from most of the traveling businessmen who come here occasionally. A professional businessman on the route between Lengyan, therefore, he does know a little more about this place than others."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged chunky businessman couldn't help showing a hint of caution on his greasy face. After looking around first, he lowered his voice and said, "I have to say, compared with the outside, this place is indeed a bit unusual."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and continued to listen.

"Let's take the rookie mercenary just now as an example. This guy was besieged by the local residents because he took out a few silver dragons to pay for the local specialties just now."

The short and fat businessman covered his mouth with his hands halfway, looked around, and whispered.

"I see."

Hearing this, Lei Xiao couldn't help showing a look of contemplation, and thought to himself: "Before this, Kumbu did mention that the residents here only use golden dragons for transactions, and they would rather give more than others. Change from silver dragons and bronze dragons is not accepted."

"On the inside, the gold coins are divided into several parts and used as silver coins and copper coins. This way of using currency is indeed very different."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao didn't hesitate, and asked again: "Then why do the residents here do this?"

"That's one of the weird things about this place."

I saw the short and fat businessman lowered his voice to the extreme again, and responded in a low voice: "I have also asked many local partners this question, but not only got nothing, but was greeted twice. "

"If it weren't for the fact that there are fewer foreign businessmen here and the competition is not so fierce, I would have already given up my job."

Speaking of this, the chunky businessman seemed to be recalling some bad experience, he shuddered involuntarily, and then said: "I don't know if you have noticed that the architectural style here is also very unique, almost All right angles, no arches or rounded structures, it looks very rigid."

Shrugging his shoulders and spreading his hands, the chunky businessman continued: "When I was young, I traveled to many countries, but I have never seen such a square architectural style."

"I have noticed this too."

Slightly nodding his head, Lei Xiao couldn't help showing a look of deep thought.

I have to say that I have never seen this kind of architectural style even in the ruins of the elves and the enchantment of the winged people.

"It seems that there are quite a lot of weird places. From this, it can be seen that there is indeed a possibility that there is an unknown secret hidden here."

"This mysterious country in the mountains is really becoming more and more interesting."

Realizing this, Lei Xiao groaned for a while, rubbed his hands, and then asked the middle-aged businessman, "Besides that, are there any other things worth noting here?"

I saw the middle-aged chunky businessman rubbing the back of his head and pondering for a long time, then shook his head and said, "Sorry Your Excellency, I don't know about the others."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged chubby businessman seemed to suddenly think of something, and then his eyes lit up and said: "By the way, sir, when I came here in the early days, I once talked to some local partners about giant Axe General Burt, but found another unusual thing."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao immediately showed interest and continued to listen.
