After hearing the words, he grabbed the holy emblem tied around his neck and cast a few divine detection spells very seriously, but found nothing abnormal at all.
Wiping the sweat off his brow, he was out of breath: "It seems that the portal was opened in your house randomly."
"How could it be? Without the help of space-time beacons, the portal to hell can't be opened at all, okay?"
Ada retorted, but in the end there was still nothing to do but to give up.
"Auntie, Grandpa, please drink water..." Xiao Liutiao saw the two of them sitting back at the table again, and brought two glasses of boiled water with interest.
"She called me Grandpa, really, am I that old?"
After Xiao Liutiao left, the old prostitute touched the stubble on his chin, feeling a little unconfident.
"Ha, she already calls me Auntie. You are so much older than me, so of course you can only call me Grandpa. What's so strange?"
Ada sneered.
But having said that, the old prostitute is now in his 40s, and he is just a standard middle-aged man, far from the standard of his grandfather.
I really don't know what the little wicker wants to shout when he sees the heart of the tree, mummy?
"Forget it, let's talk about business. Have you finished the two things I asked you to do? Have you found the house?"
"I found it. There are two places. I will tell you in detail."
Ada simply dipped her fingers in water, drew a map on the table, and began to explain.
Old prostitutes have very high requirements, the most important thing is to be concealed and safe, so that the surrounding residents cannot suddenly find out that there are more people here.
But this is not a problem for Ada, who has a wide network of contacts at this stage. She directly went to the local guard Dizhi and told him her request:
Just find a place where you search for the most important criminal, but you can't search it no matter what!
So Indigo quickly handed in two answers.
And he promised: "Don't worry, even if it is the most rigorous search in this place, it will last for at least ten days and a half months. I know the job!"
Chapter 209. Correct docking
Listening to the girl's introduction, the old prostitute kept nodding.
These two places were chosen so professionally that there was even a complete escape plan, as if it was drawn up by the most professional people!
My little brother, in order to help himself, really worked hard.
"The monthly rent for the first place is 1000, and the environment for the second place is better, 2000 a month."
After Ada finished explaining, she talked about the price.
"Are you the first one who can't make money from me?" The heart of the old whore, squinting at the girl, pulled her character to the lowest level in his heart.
"That's right, I've earned nothing less."
Facts have proved that Ada's character has fallen below the bottom.
The old prostitute was choked up by the girl's frankness for a long time and was speechless.
"Let's just be the first one...can you give me a cheaper price?"
He even talked about the price with an intermediary, which felt really strange: "How about 500?"
"500!? Then I won't make any money!" Ada slapped the table wildly: "900 can't be lowered."
"Good guy, you want to earn half of my rent? Do you think my money comes from the wind?"
"My money didn't come from the wind!" Ada slapped the table and stood up: "Do you know how much I spent in favor of getting in touch with the fraternity's insider for you!"
In fact, she didn't spend a penny, and even picked up a few pieces of broken glass from a window and fed them to Xiao Bai as magic spar, but unfortunately she was caught on the spot.
Overwhelmed by the girl's aura, the old prostitute remembered the matter of the Dark Brotherhood, and only then did he understand why she charged so much.
"Well, it's because I didn't think carefully," the old prostitute sighed: "This time it cost you money, the rent will be calculated as 1000, I will live for two months first."
As he spoke, he took out his wallet and counted the banknotes: "By the way, when will we see that insider?"
"Wait here for a while, I'll get someone to call him over." Ada calculated the distance between Brando, who lives in Uptown, and Brando, and continued: "He may not arrive until the afternoon, so I can't stay here." You have lunch."
"????" The old prostitute was exhausted physically and mentally: "You run a tavern here, why can't you cook some food?"
"Look at what you said, if I don't keep you, don't you have to go out to eat? If you go out to eat, can you bear not to bring me and Shen Ying, Xiao Liu Tiao and Xiao Bai?"
After reacting for a while, the old prostitute realized that Xiaobai was referring to the white crystal ferret who lived on magic spar, and suddenly collapsed:
"It's fine as a treat, why do I have to offer it?"
According to the current prices, two hundred kronors can't stop this meal, right?
More than half of them are fed to pets.
"Hey, you should just do your filial piety to it. I know you have money anyway."
Ada knew that Stonetalon Mountain let the human killers find a place to live on their own, and it must be a public fee.
And Stonetalon Mountain specializes in robbery, food may be short, but property will not be short.
For such a large household, it would be useless not to slaughter it!
…………
Ada's family had a great time eating this meal, and even packed a lot for Triss who came back from school in the evening, which made the hotel owner click his tongue, thinking that such wealthy customers are rare these days.
Even the strange-looking dog ate magic spar.
This is not some noble family in the upper city who came down to visit privately in microservices, right?
Satisfied with wine and food, Ada returned home with four dishes and one soup packed, and saw Brando knocking on the door.
"Here, that's him." Ada pouted at the fat man.
The old prostitute saw that the fat on this person had blocked the door without leaving any gaps, and suddenly felt a strong sense of distrust.
He was terrified and asked the girl next to him in a low voice: "How much did you spend to hire such an actor to deceive me?"
As we all know, the main business of the Dark Brotherhood is assassination, and their members are all professional killers, and this one in front of him...how does he kill people?
Use that fat body to sit on the butt to death?
"Don't make trouble, he is a high-level brotherhood, please be polite." Ada said in a low voice and earnestly.
Brando saw the return of this group of people, and immediately trotted forward, and raised his hand to say hello from a long distance: "Oh, Miss Ada, I heard that you want to introduce business to me?"
The old prostitute felt the vibration of the soles of his feet, saw the fat man scurrying around with fat and courteous appearance, and looked at the girl again in horror:
"You can't get in touch with the fraternity, and you can't just find an actor to fool me!"
This little brother is too scumbag now, really.
It's different from back then, when in order to trick Shen Ying into washing her clothes, she also specially found a professional drama actor to act in a breakup scene.
Even professional actors don't bother to look for them now, so they just dragged someone from the street?
The Dark Brotherhood is all cold and mysterious, it doesn't matter if this actor is fat, but he still acts so attentive, the acting is too unprofessional!
Faced with doubts, Ada just smiled.
What kind of person do you think she is, and you can't hire actors to spend money?This is free!
"Introduce, Brando, the head of the local fraternity; Old whore, my former teammate, brother."
Ada introduced the two parties respectively.
"Ouch!" Brando's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly stepped forward to hold the old prostitute's hand and shook it back and forth: "I've been looking forward to it for a long time, I'll be in charge of our fraternity affairs, if you have anything to do in the future, just talk to me."
The old prostitute chuckled: The structure is still small, this fat man might as well say that he is the future queen of this country, maybe the comedy effect can be better.
Brando handed over another business card with his home address on it: "Go and wait for me over there first, I have something to say to Miss Ada."
In theory, he wouldn't give his business card to someone he met for the first time and didn't know well.
So far, he has given out less than ten business cards, and the holders are all well-known.
But Ada's former teammate... this is the teammate of the legendary strong man, he must be very strong! ?It won't hurt to make friends!
Thinking of this, he asked Ada cautiously, "What is the strength of this gentleman?"
"I don't know, we haven't seen each other for many years, the priest of the third ring..." The girl carefully estimated the old prostitute's ability to assassinate the half-dragon's subordinates, and said a little uncertainly: "Maybe it's a mid-level assassin? "
"Hehe, Miss Ada is so good at joking, how is this possible!"
Brando nodded knowingly, as if he understood something: "But I understand, to hide my identity and strength, just like you, don't worry, I won't say anything about it."
After finishing speaking, he ran to the old prostitute who was waiting aside, his courteous manner was no different from his treatment of Ada.
"Although I don't know what you understand, but the direction must be reversed."
Ada muttered to herself.
Looking at this fat man who suddenly became courteous to him, the old prostitute was also at a loss.
But after all, it was Ada's promise, and what if... Forget it, let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor!
Thinking in this way, he described his ulterior needs in detail, and immediately got a promise from Brando.
"That's it? Don't you want to ask the higher-ups for instructions?" The old prostitute squinted at the fat man who had obviously entered the scene in front of him.
Good guy, you dare to agree to this kind of request in one go, you really regard yourself as a cadre.
"You don't need to ask for instructions. I've said it all. I'm the head of the local fraternity." Brando's sincere words seemed so ridiculous to outsiders: "And we have already cooperated with the royal family. Your request is too simple. , in a matter of minutes, let's agree on a delivery location, shall we?"
Ada looked at the two who had correctly docked(?), hummed a ditty and returned to the house.
She didn't want to inquire about the old prostitute's secret.
If the old prostitute wants to talk, he will take the initiative to tell himself. Now if he asks forcibly, wouldn't he hurt his friend's feelings?
Section 210. Bootleggers
At night, it was the last few people left, and Ada was lying on the counter drowsily, listening to everyone's commonplace talk about food issues.
But this time I heard something different.
"Hey, have you guys heard that someone in Xicheng District is already quietly selling low-priced rice, but it's very hidden. I went to investigate twice today, but I can't find where it is."
Someone whispered mysteriously to the others.
"Xicheng District? As far as I know, there are also green parks. My wife also looked for them, but they couldn't find them."
"I found one. There is a newly opened antique shop down Bali Street in Dongcheng. Although the price is lower than the market price, it is not that low. If you want to buy it, I will take you there tomorrow."
Some people raised their hands, which attracted a lot of attention.
But after he said the price he found out, there was a lot of sighing and cursing.
"Fuck, I see that there is a grain store near the sea, which has already filled all four rice warehouses, and the sea is still continuously transporting grain here, but they would rather raise the price than sell it to us ordinary people!"
The blacksmith on the street corner was as violent as ever: "Push me to the end, I took a few people to order it!"
"That's right! There's no way out anyway, so count me in when the time comes!" Someone immediately echoed.
"Forget it, Lao Jin, it's not their fault at all." The one who found the low-priced grain sighed, and pointed upwards: "It's His Majesty who keeps raising the price of grain, and they can't sell it with a big fanfare. People who smuggled low-priced food told me."
That's why they can only deal with the inventory in their hands secretly in this way.
But this couldn't stop the excited people, and some people immediately slapped the table to retort: "You can pull it down, the price you inquired about is still not that low. Businessmen are all profit-seeking, and they don't make money. How could they be content?"
At this time, Ada finally raised her head, looked at the group of neighbors who planned to start an uprising in her tavern, and said leisurely: "I advise you to wait a little longer, things might turn around soon."
The tavern suddenly fell silent.
Someone asked in a low voice, "How about a turning point?"
"Don't ask, I estimate that in half a month, food prices will start to drop sharply." Ada waved her hand in a daze: "Trust me."
As soon as this remark came out, although there were still people who continued to mutter about businessmen chasing profits and being unable to survive, no one answered.
Now that Ada's prestige in the local area is getting higher and higher, they are also willing to convince this seemingly young girl.
Ada breathed a sigh of relief and looked into the distance.
I hope my judgment is correct.
Of course, all of these reasonings must be based on the premise that His Majesty the Old Sword Lord intends to solve the food crisis in the territory.At first, she didn't understand why His Majesty agreed to the terms of those merchants and treated the people so harshly, but just after listening to the discussion of the neighbors, a realization struck her mind like lightning.
Yeah, if it's for this sort of thing, then it all makes sense.
