Elevator Dimension Line
Chapter 336 Turn around
After coming out of the alliance trade, a few people didn't know what to do for a while. The certification was also completed. If they want to go back to the Holy Church Trading Station to deliver the task, it seems that they have to run to the sea just after reaching the land. It's not worth it. Anyway, there is nothing over there. If you need time, why not take advantage of the opportunity to wander around the city?
"We'll be walking around here for two days!" Tantai Ye said to the four girls,
"Aren't you in a hurry to complete the task?" Yaozi asked,
"It's not less than these two days. We can't go back to the sea just after arriving today. Stay here for two days, and by the way, we can also understand the world!" Tantaiye said with a smile, and then looked at Tomoko,
"It doesn't matter to us. It's all up to you. We just want to experience the exotic customs... But those organizations should have headquarters on land. I think we can deliver the mission if we inquire about it!" Tomoko said,
"Yes, that's what Sister Tomoko said. Doesn't that mysterious society have to report the situation to their high priest before they can reply to us? Since we are on land, why don't we inquire and see if there is any mysterious society here? Stronghold, maybe we can solve it here!" Miyamoto Rei clapped her hands and said,
"That's right! That's it." Tantaiye nodded and said,
Then several people divided into three groups. Miyamoto Rei and Yaozi went to the Gold Diggers Organization to see if they could hand in a task, while Yaozi and Kagami Xiaoye went to the Mysterious Society Organization. As for Tantaiye, he went to look around alone. What's the gain?
……
Tantai Ye, who was walking on the street, was wearing white shorts, a white suit, and a white captain's hat. He looked like a complete aristocratic son. Some women on the street gave him hot looks from time to time, and they were bolder. He even took the initiative to say hello, but was rejected by Tantai Ye with a polite smile.
When I passed a T-shaped intersection, I saw a bookstore. There were very few bookstores in this period. After all, only those nobles could access books and they also liked to learn knowledge. As for most people, it can be said that they were illiterate. People at the bottom struggling for survival, insulated from knowledge,
Walking into the bookstore, an old man who looked to be in his sixties, wearing thick glasses, was leaning on the counter reading a book. When he heard someone coming in, he raised his head and saw a young man who was cleanly dressed and had a good temperament. , the old man also hurriedly closed the book and walked out,
"Excuse me, do you want to buy a book?"
"Come in and take a look. If there's anything you like, I'll pay!" Tantai Ye said with a smile.
"I have a full range of books here, including the latest "The Stormrage Sea Monster" and "The Adventures of Wales"... Oh, and the current best-selling "Legend of the Old God Island"..." The old man introduced gushingly. The books in the bookstore are basically novels.
Tantai Ye shook his head and said: "I'm not interested in these. Are there any professional knowledge books, or books introducing the local customs and customs..."
"Professional knowledge? Customs and customs?" The old man pushed up his glasses and looked at Tantai Ye strangely, "Do you want biographies, miscellaneous notes, geographical diaries, etc.? Those recorded above are very similar to what you said!"
"Come and take a look! By the way, do you have the latest version of the world map and nautical charts here?" Tantaiye suddenly remembered that he wanted to change to new charts and asked,
While taking the books he just mentioned, the old man said: "There are maps and nautical charts, but they are not the latest editions. The latest editions are in the hands of the royal family. Ordinary people like us can't buy them. Okay, these are This is the book you want, take a look."
The old man placed more than a dozen books on the counter at once, but it was hard for him to lift them.
Tantaiye picked up the top one and flipped through it. It was a biography, which recorded the life of an explorer and his adventure career. It seemed like a novel, but in fact it was a bit like the geography of modern society. , biological notes, which contain pictures of some small islands, as well as detailed records of minerals, organisms, etc.
"Okay, I want all of these!" Tantaiye said with a smile.
The old man was also surprised. He had never seen anyone buying books like this.
"Do you have any books about those mysterious things?" Tantai Ye suddenly asked tentatively,
"Ah! Are you talking about those things about death, curses, etc.? No, no, those are only available to those in the Mystery Society. They are all evil things, and no one will touch those things." The old man waved his hands hurriedly,
"Do you have a mystery club here?" Tantaiye took advantage of the situation and asked,
"I don't know about that. Those people are very mysterious. I heard that they are honest and upright on overseas islands, but few people can come into contact with them here, unless they are royal personnel or some big nobles..." What the old man said later , said it very quietly. If it weren’t for the fact that he bought so many books in Tantai Ye, he probably wouldn’t have told him.
"Who is the royal family now? And are there any big nobles in this city?" Tantai Ye asked,
"You are from the Eastern Continent, right... The current royal family is William III, a very shrewd guy. As for the nobles here, there are many, large and small, too many to count, but the biggest one is the Marquis of Carlisle. Now, he manages this city..." The old man said as he pushed the bundled books in front of Tantai Ye,
"If I want to meet the Marquis, is there any way?" Tantaiye took out a gold coin and handed it over and said with a smile,
The old man took the gold coins in surprise. Very few people paid with gold coins directly. They always exchanged them for silver coins or copper coins. After all, gold coins were generally circulated as currency among high-level officials. Ordinary people used copper coins or silver coins and watched the other party give them to him. The fineness of the gold coins is not comparable to that of ordinary gold coins. Let alone buying these dozen books, you can even buy the entire bookstore.
The old man squinted his eyes, glanced at Tantaiye and said: "If you want to meet the Marquis, it's impossible for no one to recommend you, but judging from your clothes and conversation, you should not be an ordinary person. A baron came to buy books from me two days ago. He I mentioned that the Marquis is going to hold a ball... It should be in three days, and many nobles will be there by then. Maybe you can try your luck there..."
After leaving the bookstore, Tantai Ye also had a plan in mind. He was going to visit the Marquis. As for the address, he had already found out the address from the old man.
Tantaiye, who was carrying a large bundle of books, passed an uninhabited corner and put the books into the wrist space, then continued to spin.
Dressed in pure white, Tantai Ye seems to be walking casually and freely on the street, but his overall style is still somewhat out of tune with the era he lives in. Therefore, there are many people looking at him around, including some crowing dogs, thieves, and vicious bandits.
However, Tantaiye ignored these people. He just walked around and listened to the information coming from all around. Even if he didn't read some gossip, he could also reveal the basic information of the world.
Just as Tantaiye was walking and watching, a person suddenly knocked out of a door diagonally across the street. He threw himself on the street. He was so strong that he suddenly hit his face and it hurt to look at it. That kind of thing, there is a clear big footprint on its back, which was obviously kicked out by someone.
Sure enough, a man walked out of the gate. He put his three-cornered hat on the man on the ground, cursed, then turned around and returned to the gate.
Tantaiye looked up and saw that it was a tavern. It looked quite big. This kind of place is undoubtedly a good place to collect intelligence these days. Then, he crossed the street and walked into the tavern door.
As soon as he entered, Tantaiye was shocked by the scene in front of him.
Good guy, what you see in front of you is just like an ancient nightclub. It has two floors. There are various round table booths in the lobby on the first floor, a patio in the middle, and a circular stage. There are also various booths all around the second floor. 'The wine table and three huge oil lamp chandeliers hang in the patio. There are also bright oil lamps on the pillars around the hall. At this time, the whole hall is also very lively.
What shocked Tantaiye was not only the environment inside, but also the people who were drinking. Some were wearing uniform uniforms and looked like soldiers, and some were dressed like pirates. In short, they were not human beings, no matter you Right and wrong, no one affects each other,
"It is indeed a world with pirate civilization!" Tantai Ye sighed,
At this time, a waiter wearing a gray shirt came up. Perhaps because he saw that Tantai Ye was well-dressed and very polite, he
"My lord, how can I serve you?"
"I'll have a drink, a bottle of your best wine!" Tantaiye nodded and said,
"Okay, please follow me," the waiter led Tantai Ye to a small round table, right next to the circular stage in the middle of the patio, which should be the best location.
Tantaiye sat on the chair, crossed his legs, and scanned the table with three fingers on one hand and rubbed it. It was very clean and there was no dust...
There were three people sitting at the table behind him, and they were all well-dressed, but compared with Tantai Ye's spotless whiteness, it was nothing. The main thing was his temperament.
The three of them looked at Tantai Ye carefully. Although they wanted to answer, they did not speak rashly in the end.
After a while, the waiter brought a bottle of wine.
"My lord, this is the best golden rum we have here..."
"That's it, just put it down. If you have any snacks to go with the wine, bring some up."
Tantai Ye said and flicked a silver coin to the waiter. The waiter hurriedly caught it. He was still a little confused about the snacks he was talking about, but he quickly understood. After bowing, he hurriedly retreated and took action. Silver Coin is definitely a great nobleman,
After pouring a small cup of Tantai Ye, he tasted it. The aftertaste was slightly sweet and the aroma was strong. It was only about 30 degrees.
"Not bad, not bad, this stuff tastes good!" Tantaiye said to himself, looking at the bottle, it looked green, it didn't look very high-end, but he didn't expect that the wine inside was pretty good.
At this time, the waiter brought another plate of pine nuts and a plate of peanuts, which can be regarded as snacks in Tantaiye's mouth.
"How do you call this gentleman?"
A voice came from behind Tantai Ye,
