Riding and slashing the stars of empire civilization

112 The correct way to collect intelligence

Perhaps he was worried that he might have contracted oriosis from inhaling the Originium powder while helping Mirin burn the sheets.

Ella got a crow's mouth mask from somewhere and put it on her head.

Looking at Ella's strange appearance, Milin, who planned to take Lapland to Xianlang to see how to take off the collar, said somewhat speechlessly:

"Your appearance almost made me think I was in Yanan."

"Where is that? I thought, Admiral, you would complain that there is no Black Death here." Ella said as she took off the raven's mouth mask, the plague doctor's exclusive equipment.

"A warm and hospitable place, by the way, where did you get such a helmet?" Milin asked curiously after seeing Aila's skillful movements.

"Plague always goes hand in hand with war. Oh, I bought it from the Wolf and Spice Merchant Guild." Ella said after a moment of disappointment and realized that she was off topic.

"Lawrence's business is quite extensive..." Milin said as he glanced at the Wolf and Spice Merchant's Guild next to the hotel.

In terms of appearance, there is not much difference between the Wolf and Spice Merchant Guild and the high-end residences in the Imperial Capital. They all look like bathhouses.

The difference is that the people coming through the open arched door are not customers wearing robes waiting to take a bath.

A sign with a money bag hanging on the beam at the door indicates that this is a chamber of commerce.

The money bag sign hanging above is a wolf's head and a pair of crossed throwing spears and throwing axes, which represents the Nordic relationship of this chamber of commerce.

It is used to prove to customers its strength and the safety of the goods.

Large chambers of commerce like Wolf and Spice, in addition to having their own fleets of vehicles selling goods everywhere, also provide logistics services.

The letters that Avigo wrote as a citizen representative were brought to the imperial capital through such a caravan.

I wonder if Lawrence had spread the word about the beeswax candles and honey.

Compared to the other chambers of commerce next door, the chamber belonging to the Wolf and Spice Chamber of Commerce has much more customers.

There is no need to trouble the reception staff in the chamber of commerce who introduce products, negotiate prices, and handle delivery procedures.

The familiar Lapland took Milin directly through the noisy hall, which was no different from a vegetable market, to the back of the club, which is the so-called area.

The customers who can be brought here can basically be regarded as either rich or expensive.

The honey and candles, which are the main products this time, are packed in exquisite containers and are available to these guests in the form of samples.

Holo, one of the leaders of the Chamber of Commerce, was walking with her husband Lawrence among the customers who could afford these goods, chatting and talking about transactions.

Lapland, who walked in with Milin and Ella, did not disturb Holo who was busy. He directly found an empty seat and sat down. He picked up the snacks at hand and put them in his mouth.

Milin, who sat down next to him, also took a bite of his heart.

Then Milin and Lapland both put back the snacks they had only taken one bite at the same time.

It's not that it tastes bad, but it's too sweet.

Maybe Lapland in the past could eat this insanely sweet snack.

But along the way, he developed an appetite for Ella's various fancy snacks, and inherited the skill of making snacks from his other self.

If Lapland were to eat such snacks now, he would definitely not be able to eat them.

Seeing the reactions of Milin and Lapland, Ella, who also picked up a piece of snack and tasted it, said: "It's not bad, but I added a little too much honey."

"This is not a little too much, but too much." Milin looked at Ella strangely and said.

Could it be that Her Majesty Ella, the super chef who makes all kinds of snacks by changing flowers and can cook almost all the dishes from all over the world, has a stupid tongue?

Lapland's actions were more straightforward. He directly picked up the kettle next to him and drank several large sips. After finishing the sip, he stuck out his tongue and breathed like a puppy.

It doesn't look like it's sweet, but spicy.

"e... Please wait for me for a while..." Ella, who always felt that Milin's eyes were a bit impolite, thought for a while and asked Lapland:

"Where's the kitchen?"

"Oh, come with me." After hearing Ella's words, Lapland, who knew that Ella was going to cook by herself, jumped up from the chair and led Ella towards the kitchen.

Seeing Lapland's eagerness to give it a try, Milin knew that she was also going to show off her skills. He mentally estimated the time it would take for the mille-feuille to be finished from kneading to completion.

Guessing that it would take at least a while, Mirin took a sip of water to dilute the overly sweet taste in his mouth.

He stood up and walked to the samples like a guest.

The other guests who had glanced at Milin when he entered turned their attention to Milin again.

After all, there are only so many products. If one more person buys them, not only will they get less, but the price will also be more expensive.

Although Lawrence has repeatedly emphasized that he can obtain more supplies, if it were really that easy to obtain, would honey and beeswax still be so expensive?

However, after seeing that Milin, who walked to the sample, neither tasted the honey nor approached the lit beeswax candle to smell it, he seemed to have no interest in these products.

These customers turned their attention back.

However, Lawrence, who was cooperating with his wife to discuss business, had to pay some attention to Milin.

The turmoil last night left Lawrence unable to sleep well at all.

Although Lawrence knew that Milin came to the imperial capital not just for tourism, Lawrence was definitely not expecting such a big fuss.

If it weren't for his wife's obstruction and the dinar he had to pay for his status as general representative, Lawrence even considered the idea of ​​hiding from the Chamber of Commerce for a while.

As a result of being unable to concentrate on business discussions, Lawrence almost collapsed the deal he was negotiating.

Fortunately, Holo was there to help her this time, as the discomfort caused her husband to fail in business negotiations and offend others.

Milin, who noticed Lawrence's mood, looked at the Xianlang couple with amusement.

Along the way, apart from his love for his wife, Lawrence didn't see the same daring, fighting and adventurous spirit as in another world.

On the contrary, he was cautious and hesitant when doing things.

Is it because the Lawrence family in this world has a great career and is not as single as before?

But the problem is that the Wise Wolf in this world is not a heretical belief suppressed by a monotheistic religion, but a mercenary leader who actually has a knife in his hand.

It's a little strange to still be so cautious.

Could it be that following Xian Lang, he inevitably came into contact with some more dangerous things, causing him, who was just an ordinary person, to lose his spirit?

While observing the Xianlang couple, Milin was also accepting the conversations between other guests.

These customers, who were either rich or noble and formed their own small circles, did not talk much about these honey and beeswax candles.

Instead, they talked about what happened last night that caused a stir in the whole city.

As expected, everyone has the desire to gossip.

In just a moment, Milin discovered that his identity was first a traitor who wanted to take revenge on the temple, then he became a guard with a grudge because he was disbanded, and now he became Queen Gaia because She was dissatisfied with the fact that the temple did not support her status as emperor and sent a spy.

He even became the bodyguard of Khan Kuset, the Fianna warrior of Batania, the knight errant of Vlandia, and the vanguard knight of Aselei.

In short, no matter how exaggerated it is, Milin also discovered that in just a short while, the information he obtained about the world far exceeded what he had obtained before.

It turns out that in this world with backward communications, this is the correct way to obtain information.

Just when Milin was trying to compile this mess of information, he hoped to roughly analyze the environment of an empire and even the surrounding regions.

A piece of content related to Milin suddenly popped up in these chats.

"Did you know that Her Majesty the Queen has appointed a foreigner as the executive officer of Escalon?" Judging from the tone of the speaker, he is the same xenophobe as Lao Wei.

"What? Really? What's the rank? If that woman continues to mess around, will the empire still be an empire?" The listener also looked indignant.

"I heard he's from Cathay?" the former asked again.

"Chinese people? Really?" For some reason, the xenophobic tone in his words suddenly became much lower.

"It's true, he's a Cathay man." The former, who seemed a little dissatisfied with the latter not believing his words, raised his voice.

Then he immediately noticed that his voice was too loud and quickly lowered his voice.

But he heard everything that needed to be heard, and at the same time, Milin also noticed that the guests in the room turned their attention to him again because of these words.
