Infinite Academy System

Chapter 39
After breakfast, tax officer Karl took Beichuan and his party to the mayor.

This time due to Leeds's strong protest and Camicchia's seemingly lack of interest in self-recommendation, Kitagawa's 'Liz & Ship' battle plan failed. At the same time, Ryuyama also said that it was time for him to leave.
He said so.

"It's docked, I should go too! Ken! My future apprentice, you just stay on this ship for a few days, and you come to me after I build the martial arts hall. Or you can go with me now also!"

Just poaching people in front of him like this!To be honest, Beichuan wanted to squeeze him to death at the time, but considering the strength gap between the two sides, he gave up.

In the end, Longshan left alone, while a certain swordsman stayed on the boat alone to enjoy the leisure time.

On Beichuan's side, Karl, a local tax official, led the way, and the group passed through the complicated streets and went straight to the government affairs hall.

--------

The location of Tiha is flat, and there are small parts of evergreen forests in the southeast. Unlike Sagos, which is surrounded by rivers, and unlike the hills on both sides of Woll Harbor, Tiha turns from south to north. After crossing the hill is Yimapingchuan.

It is rich in wood, leather, salt and rich and varied seafood.

Due to the influence of the northern monsoon,
In winter, the cold current will invade the whole of Tiha from the Winter Sea, and then be blocked by the mountains in the south, so the winter here will be more severe than that of Port Vaore.

However, in seasons other than winter, Tiha's geographical location has created quite good trading conditions, coupled with the relatively rich products, domestic businessmen, big and small, are willing to come here to try their luck, and it is precisely because of these As a business traveler, Tiha became the commercial capital of Nord after the capital Sagos.

Carl, who was walking in the front, stopped suddenly, and looked longingly at the huge gray castle that was close at hand
"That is the castle of the Lord of the City. It is said that this castle was built more than 100 years ago by Faenyar's grandfather - 'Old Faun'. All the gray-blue stones used to build the city came from the south of Hrusburg. I don't know what trick 'Old Faen' used to transport those heavy stones to the seaside hundreds of miles away to build this castle. Although it has been repaired and transformed by 'Faen Yar' in the past generations, You can no longer see what it looked like back then, but this castle is still erected in the center of Tiha as the residence of the Faen family. Did you see the red flag on the tower? The white unicorn in the middle represents Faen. The family crest."

Farnjar?I remember that when I was still in Ruger Town, Beichuan also saw the coat of arms of Baron Black Elk, which was a white deer head on a black background.

"Could it be that the coats of arms used by the nobles of the Nord Kingdom are all certain animals?" Beichuan asked curiously.

"Haha! The leader is joking, not only animals, but also many other things. For example, Olaf Jarr, who represents the blood-raged berserkers, their coat of arms is a pair of crossed black axes." Carl rarely revealed A proud look.

Hearing this, no one noticed that Liz's face behind Beichuan suddenly changed.
(Olafjar, crossed axes, ring!? Could it be that person)

Bei Chuan didn't notice Liz's abnormality, he looked at Carl's complacent expression and came up with another idea.

"Huh? It seems that you know a lot about this."

In fact, since the establishment of the brigade, Beichuan had long wanted someone to design a badge, but suffered from the fact that there were no professionals on board, so he kept it.Just now, I just heard that this guy, Karl, looked like he had studied deeply, so he immediately made up his mind.

"Where! I just learned some simple noble heraldry." Karl scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Then if, I want you to help us design a badge for our brigade, will you help me?"

"Really? It is the honor of my life to be able to design badges for the cross-border brigade! If possible, I am very happy!" Carl said excitedly.

"Of course! Please rest assured that you are absolutely indispensable for your wages!" Bei Chuan took care of everything, anyway, now he is not short of money at all.

When Karl was excited, he subconsciously glanced at his current location, and found that he had reached the door of the house where the government affairs hall was located before he knew it.

"Um! We'll talk about the badge later after we've decided on the name. Now the mayor's location - the government affairs hall has arrived, and it's here!" Carl pointed his finger at the house behind him.

Hearing Carl's words, Beichuan cast his eyes behind Carl, and the hall was indeed a busy scene, and the most you could see in this busy area were farmers in shabby clothes.
As if seeing Beichuan's gaze, Carl quickly explained: "These are the village chiefs of the nearby villages. Today happens to be the day of tax collection, so they seem to be busy. Usually, there are much fewer people than this."

"Pay taxes? Doesn't Tiha's tax collector go to the village to collect taxes?"

"Ah? Why did the tax officer go to the village to collect taxes?" Karl asked blankly.

"No! I mean, isn't the lord here afraid of these villagers underpaying and missing paying?" Beichuan asked in surprise.

"Haha, it turns out that adults are thinking about this kind of problem. The reason why they are willing to pay taxes is very simple. It is because they know that only by paying taxes can Tiha be able to get more grain and salt before winter comes. , daily necessities... Even some villages are willing to go hungry to pay taxes, so that their villages will not be abandoned by Tiha after the winter comes." The tax officer explained patiently.

winter?Bei Chuan spewed out a puff of white air and touched the single clothes on his body.

Since he came to this world, he has been wearing this kind of clothes and sometimes rolled up his sleeves to expose his arms. So it's always been cold here?Problems in winter?After much deliberation, Beichuan still couldn't figure it out, so he finally handed the question to Karl.

"Is it cold here in winter?"

Karl glanced enviously at Bei Chuan's unlined clothes and said, "My lord is very talented, and it is a cold-resistant physique that rarely appears among us Nords. Although most Nords can fight against complex environments with their strong bodies, not all People can ignore the cold like an adult! For most people, the so-called talent is at most that they can make people feel less cold. In fact, most ordinary people still rely on thicker clothing to effectively resist the cold. "

Speaking of Karl, he pointed to his thick old aristocratic robe
After listening to his words, Beichuan suddenly realized that the reason for so many people wearing bloated clothes in Woer Harbor and Luge Town was because of this
Bei Chuan looked around at the crowd, and as expected, except for Baru and Liz, everyone else was living a life of their own.But it’s okay for Baru to wear thin clothes because of his strong body, why Liz is also in single clothes.
"How about you, Liz? You don't look like a Nord, don't you feel cold?"

Liz was taken aback by Bei Chuan's question and then suddenly changed the subject: "Captain Higgs! We've been standing here for a long time now, hurry up and register the name of the brigade, okay? Ken and Baru still have to go shopping Ingredients and Uncle Lanster also has something to discuss with you!"

The three who had been silent for a long time heard Liz say this, nodded at the same time, and then the three of them made a thick nasal voice together.

"Ok!"

(I was hit by three people at the same time! And I was speechless)

Bei Chuan looked at the foolish eyes of the passers-by, and immediately bowed his head and walked into the government affairs hall.
Carl, who was standing beside Beichuan, smiled at the passers-by with strange eyes, and followed Beichuan in.
　ps: Huh~huh~
