Start As a Lord In a Viscount

After Randolph left, according to the agreement with the other party, Claire is no longer pressing the construction of the church. Anyway, when the time comes back, that Omar will simply let him do it. As long as he doesn't allow it, the other party will not even dare to church. Come out, let alone preach everywhere like Randolph.

After Randolph left, the masters also evacuated from Nafhu City. Without Wendy's opera competition with those masters, the popularity of Nafford City gradually decreased a lot. Compared with those days, it became more and more popular. A lot cooler.

But that's just a superficial phenomenon. In fact, the number of tourists who come to Nafu City is still on the rise, and the popularity has gone out. In addition, this time period is also the autumn and winter seasons. Some residents in northern cities are traveling to avoid the cold. , then Nafu City was included as an option for tourism.

And it's not just tourists who come, some of them are particularly attractive - bards, who can often be seen performing performances in the streets and alleys.

Most of these troubadours were attracted by Wendy, as a newly-emerged master troubadour, and his invincible record against many masters, and enough to make many troubadours put Wendy As an idol, just like Wendy took Morey as her idol at the beginning.

After coming here, because there are so many tourists here, it also gives the troubadours a chance to stay. The income they get from performing here is more stable than when they wander around, and Wendy will also Selecting some of the more capable ones to work in the Grand Theater has given hope to many bards at the bottom. After all, they had no stable upward channels before.

Claire welcomed these bards as well, issuing several decrees to ensure their legitimacy and profit while working in Nafta. Although it now seems that they are attached to Nafu City, if a long time passes, they will form a unique culture that will in turn act on Nafu City and become a unique cultural feature of Nafu City. First, attract more tourists to come and watch.

...

In the newly built Mermaid Plaza, Claire stood in the distance watching a bard perform. Like Wendy before, the bard was full of people, listening carefully to the ups and downs of the legend. story.

Because of the large number of troubadours in Nafu City, there is also competition among these troubadours. They must innovate and create interesting stories. Many troubadours find that After arriving in Nafu City, my skills have improved a lot.

After hearing half of it, Claire turned her head and left the place. This time, he wasn't here to find talents like Wendy. He was just here to see how the group of bards was developing in Nafu City.

It looks good now.

Just after walking more than ten steps, Claire was stopped by someone shouting, This young master, wait a moment!

Claire stopped and turned around. The other party was a hawker pushing a stall. Such hawkers are very common in Nafu City now, and they mainly gather in crowded places to sell some drinks or snacks. As far as Claire knew, they got the squid out of the iron plate.

After seeing Claire stop, the peddler walked forward with a smile, It should be your first time visiting Nafford City, right?

Claire tilted her head: ? ? ? Am I an outsider?

After seeing Claire's reaction, the peddler firmed his mind, Let me introduce you to the specialties of Nafta City? This is a sculpture of a mermaid...

Wait! Claire reached out to stop the other party's words and asked, Are you a local?

Hearing Claire's words, the peddler was obviously stunned, but he quickly reacted and said without hesitation: Of course! I am a native of Nafhu City, and I can give you directions wherever you want to play. , I know all the fun in Nafu City!

Claire smiled, it seemed that someone from another city had come to Nafu City to do business, otherwise he wouldn't even know himself. However, Claire is not very disgusted with these foreign merchants. He just needs to put some catfish in. Otherwise, the merchants in Nafu City think that they can sit at home and collect money by relying on the location, which is not conducive to the future development.

Claire smiled and said, No, tell me about your products.

Okay. The hawker smiled again, I'm selling these sculptures. You must have heard the story of mermaids, right? I have sculptures of mermaids. The name of the park here is also called Mermaids. The park was built at the expense of the Viscount...

As the peddler spoke, he handed the statue of the mermaid to Claire, and at the same time took out a new statue from the stall.

It's okay if you don't like the mermaid story... I also have statues of Walt and Millie here, the scene when they met in the cemetery, and a statue of Cupid...

The peddler kept taking the statues out of the stall and placed them in front of Claire one by one. They were all characters from Wendy's story.

Interestingly, Claire discovered that the statue of Cupid, the goddess of love, was actually based on Meili. If someone knew Meili, they would be able to recognize it at first sight.

Claire weighed the statue in her hand, her thumb rubbed lightly over it, and suddenly the movement in her hand stopped.

Claire frowned and looked at the statue of the mermaid in her hand in confusion. When he rubbed it just now, there was no roughness or splitting feeling at all. Upon closer inspection, Claire realized that the statue was different. The sculpture of the mermaid that he held in his hand when he came was very different.

The hand feels a lot more delicate, and from the appearance, there are already some obvious differences. The one in Claire's hand is more delicate, and it looks more low-key and luxurious.

Claire thought to herself: Did the blacksmiths in Najin Town improve their craftsmanship? That's pretty good, at least you don't have to do it yourself, now such a statue is enough.

Seeing that Claire's mind was immersed in the sculpture of the mermaid, the peddler said ostentatiously, I bought this from out of town at a huge price. It's much more beautiful than the previous statues!

Outside? Claire frowned slightly.

Yes, compared to the statues sold by other people, the quality of mine here is not only high but also the price is similar to theirs! The hawker said proudly.

Claire raised the mermaid statue in her hand and asked, Isn't this forged by Najin Town?

Najin Town? Where is that? The peddler scratched his head and said, I bought it from Ogon City.

Ogang City... Claire murmured. He knew Ogang City. It was the closest big city to Nafu City. It was a bit more developed and richer than the current Nafu City.

Claire thought of something and said quickly: How much! I bought it.

The peddler didn't know why the man in front of him reacted so fiercely, but he still replied, The mermaid statue in your hand is one of seven silver coins.

Claire took out seven silver coins from the space ring and buckled them on the stand, picked up the mermaid statue in her hand and turned away.

The hawker put away the seven silver coins and said, Hey, this guy is so generous, he just bought it without haggling. If he haggles, he can accept up to four or five silver coins.

As soon as Claire walked away, a street vendor ran up and shouted, Aubrey! What are you doing!

Aubrey blinked, not understanding why the other party responded so much, he scratched his head and said, Sell something.

Crack! Another vendor clapped his hand on his forehead and asked helplessly, Do you know who he is?

Aubrey was even more puzzled, Who is this?

He was indeed an outsider, just as Claire thought, and all his news about Nafu City came from the hawker in front of him. They were distant relatives. After Nafu City was on fire, he came to seek refuge with each other. The street vendor business was done by the other party with him.

He is the Viscount I often mention to you! I saw him a long time ago, and I didn't dare to talk to him. You are quite brave...

Ah?! Aubrey was so shocked that the statue in his hand was almost unsteady. He turned his head to look in the direction where Claire disappeared, and said, Is that the Viscount?

I seem to have done a remarkable thing, selling the statue of the mermaid to the Viscount of Nafu City...
