Cultivation of the Elf Continent

Chapter 135 Return to the border town

In the past few days in the border town, all the nobles were worried. Of course, it was unclear whether the Danube Chamber of Commerce was really worried. They had been lucky enough to think that the snow outside the city would melt, but no one could have imagined that it would actually happen. There is no change at all, the ground is still smooth, and humans and animals cannot stand on it. Of course, it is just worry, not panic. After all, the restaurants under the Danube Chamber of Commerce are still open. Although the prices are more expensive than before, in Under such circumstances, it is good to be able to eat food. Ordinary people and mercenaries naturally do not think about the twists and turns, but these nobles feel that this is a conspiracy. There is a conspiracy against the nobles in the border towns. The city lord, Viscount Elk, stepped forward at the critical moment to turn the tide, so that the border town would not fall into panic but he had no idea that this was a conspiracy set up by the Danube Chamber of Commerce. The other nobles of the Danube Chamber of Commerce naturally cooperated with the city lord Milu. The Viscount put on a good show. Just now, Viscount Black Fox went to the city lord's palace and asked Viscount Elk to give him more food in the name of the elder of the Danube Chamber of Commerce. As a result, Viscount Elk, the city lord, spoke uprightly. The behavior of Viscount Elk, the city lord, who rejected Viscount Black Fox and broke up unhappy in the end, was recognized and supported by other nobles in the border town. I have to admit that this move of the Danube Chamber of Commerce has successfully deceived everyone. Moreover, the people who were calculated also praised the Danube Chamber of Commerce for the good weather in the border town. From the gray weather in the past few days to the howling north wind starting today, everyone in the border town knew that the next step would be heavy snow and ice. It's time to close the city. Halson and the wandering knight Bert took a hot air balloon and braved the cold wind and returned to the border town. Looking at the residents of the border town who had not changed much, Halson thought in his heart, "It seems that the city lord Viscount Elk handled the food crisis very successfully and did not cause panic." When he came to the Miami bar, there was once a bustle of people, but now it is empty. Halson couldn't help but sigh. However, in comparison, the mercenary guild next door was... It was very lively. After the food crisis occurred in the border town, the tasks issued by the nobles began to increase. Most of them were exploring paths, purchasing animals, and collecting wild fruits. The nobles realized that food could not solve the problem, so they would naturally increase food sources from other aspects, so , the number of mercenary missions has naturally increased. In the Miami bar, there was a voice, "Three belts and one, I can't afford it, bombs, give me money, give me money." Halson's followers gathered together, in groups of three. Fighting the landlords, after all, there is nothing to do. As for the food problem in the border town, Master Halson is here. Why do they need to worry about it? They just need to follow the arrangements. For such salty followers, haha Halson didn't know whether to be happy or sad. "Squeak!" The heavy door of the tavern was pushed open. Halson and Burt pushed the door in. "They said there was no more alcohol and the business was temporarily closed. When the business resumes, "Welcome again," Diwen said without even seeing who was coming in, because in the past few days, there have been too many people coming to buy wine. The mercenaries have long been accustomed to drinking a few drinks when they have nothing to do. For the sudden Many of the Miami bars that are closed are not used to it, and those who are addicted to alcohol naturally often run to the bar, hoping to buy some wine. After all, they all know that there must be stock in the bar. This morning, they have already arrived. There were four waves of people. Devin didn’t need to look at it. He knew that he must be thinking about the people buying wine. That’s why he said, “I don’t have any wine to drink when I come.” Burt answered, “Oh, Burt. , you are back, Master Halson." Devin's words immediately attracted the attention of others, "Master Halson, Bert," everyone gathered around and said hello, "Um, you guys talk, Helen, Ahri. , you guys come upstairs." Halson glanced at his group of followers, and then said to Helen and Ahri, "Ahri, tell me about our recent financial situation," Halson sat on the sofa On the way up, he asked Ah Li on the opposite side, "Master, currently, our food reserves in the border town are only enough for us for ten days. All the businesses we operate are iron ore shops, and we only have [-] gold coins." "Gold coins, among them," Ahri held a small notebook, which recorded detailed records of Halson's business operations in the border town. Halson didn't know much about the financial aspect. Ahri's management was very orderly. Ahri, but the Harsen group is truly rich. But recently, during the food crisis, Ahri took the initiative to manage the food problem. In the border town, Harsen did not have many subordinates. In addition to followers, they were the service staff of shops and restaurants. Of course, even these people consume a lot of food every day, including chefs and soldiers in the military camp. Therefore, food is still a big problem. After listening to Ahri’s report, Halson pondered for a while and asked Helen "What's the latest news from the border town?" "The snow outside the city has not melted, so the nobles cannot go out to buy food. They are eating the food in stock, but they probably won't last long." "Then they will have to rely on the city lord's help, that is. I don’t know how much food the city lord has in stock and how long it can last.” “And there seemed to be conflicts within the Danube Chamber of Commerce over food distribution, and they eventually broke up.” “Helen briefly talked about the situation in the past two days. Nothing special happened. , but Halson knew that this might be the darkness before dawn, the tranquility before the storm. Since the conspirator behind it has set up such a big plan, he must have a plan, maybe he is waiting for the time to mature. Of course, It is not Halson's style to leave one's destiny to others and wait passively. Originally, Halson planned to fly a hot air balloon outside to buy food. However, the howling cold wind was not suitable for hot air balloon flight. Therefore, we can only wait a few days. The cold wind cannot blow all the time. As soon as the cold wind stops, Halson will go out to buy food. Looking at the thoughtful Halson, Ahri came to the back of Halson. Qian Qiansu put her hands on Harsen's shoulders and massaged Harsen's shoulders. Helen glanced at Harsen, got up and left the private room, "Master, are you worried?" Ahri asked while massaging, "How come, this little thing can still make me worry?" Halson said easily, "Master, tonight" Ah Li said to Halson with a pretty face, blushing slightly, "Um, okay, you can come to me tonight Room," Halson said.
