The Emerald Tower

　　 Looking at the merchants swarming around, Dean remembered silently.

　　According to his memory, the deceased leader of the Knights of Fecharen, soon after, will provoke several caravans to fight, and a good harvest will come.

　　Of course, this plan is not the other party’s idea, but the other party’s partner——

　　 "Hello, two carriages, four people, a silver horn in total!"

　　 The tax officer asked the guards to inspect the carriage in front of him, and said this, and pointed at the money pocket held by the two soldiers.

This money pocket is made from a sack, filled with copper and a few silver horns-Tyre collar tax is not high for merchants, one copper for a person, and three coppers for a carriage; Compared with the price calculated by Silver Horn in the Jade City, it is pitifully low here.

　　 However, even so, business people will complain.

　　 "My lord, last year two carriages only needed five coppers!"

　　 The businessman who paid for the money, put the money in the money pocket in front of him, and told his dissatisfaction.

　　 "This is the order of Lord Baron... After all, the town of Tyre needs to repair the roads and walls next year. Although Lord Baron has worked hard to save more, he still needs everyone's help!"

With an apologetic smile, the tax officer leaned slightly; and with such a friendly attitude, the businessman immediately waved his hand flattered, and even spoke unfavorably: "Mo, Lord Molde, please, Please forgive my rude questioning!"

　　 "It is my duty to answer your tax questions!"

　　 Molde said, owed again.

Once again, the friendly attitude not only made the businessman in front of the tax officer grateful to pay out, but even the businessmen after that. Even the stingy businessman would not say much to such a tax officer. After all, it is a great honor to be a tax officer as a baron to explain to businessmen like them, not to mention such a polite attitude.

The status of merchants is determined by money, and the merchants who come to collect leather goods in places like Tyrrell are obviously those who are not very wealthy, in other words, they have no status except for a few. .

　　The merchants in front of Dean paid taxes one by one into the town, and soon it was Dean's turn—

"A person?"

　　 The tax officer glanced at Dean suspiciously.

　　 "Yes, my lord, I am from the south and want to find some opportunities!"

　　 With the accent of the three southern counties, Dean bowed humbly.

　　Perhaps, other people may be blinded by Molde in front of him, but Dean is absolutely not. He is very clear about what the other party is doing.

　　 After all, the partner of the deceased leader of the Knights of Fecharen is the tax officer named Molde in front of him.

Dean remembers very clearly that when he got the news from the spy of the Grand Duke, he was surprised. If it were not for conclusive evidence, Dean would never believe that Molde would be the partner of the **** Potts. ; However, after reading the information obtained from the spy, he laughed at himself for his ignorance.

Molde, the tax official of Tyre, was originally a knight attendant of this generation of Baron Tyre. Because of his diligence and loyalty, he became the tax official of Tyre. Later he became a knight after being'baptized'; and in the Blood Moon War , Shines brightly; thus married the baron’s daughter, and inherited the baronial title after the Baron Tyre and the baron’s son died in battle.

Of course, this is only information that most people know; according to the real information, the "death" of Baron Tyre and the son of the baron was naturally the tax officer's hand, and even, a year later, the death of the eldest baron's daughter , Is also from his handwriting; and even his knight baptism, it is just the first to collude with the Fecharen knights to seek money, and then use money to dredge the relationship, only to obtain the opportunity of the knight'baptism'.

　　 And the tax official's fate was not much better. The wise one wanted to rely on some means to meddle with the female grandfather, but was eventually killed by the precautionary female grandfather.

Thinking of everything about Molde in front of him, Dean still had that humble look on his face. After Molde nodded and signaled the tax money, he immediately took out a copper and moved towards it. Lost the money bag.

　　 Every year, many merchants from the three southern counties come to this border town near the dense forest of snow, looking for opportunities to make a fortune. There are even several in the team in front of them.

　　 Therefore, Model is not surprised.

　　 "If you need anything, please come here to find me, as the tax officer in Tyre, I am happy to serve everyone from afar!"

When Molde said like this, several southern businessmen including Dean were frightened. Of course, Dean pretended to be very similar. Even Molde in front of him didn’t notice it. What; and Dean, who entered the town of Tyre, did not linger at the entrance of the town, but began to look for the inn-although his target was Molde, he also knew that the only one in Tyre that contained the tavern, Where is the inn with the restaurant function, but Dean is still like those southern merchants who came to Tyre for the first time, and it took some time to enter the inn.

　　Hoo!

When the door of the hotel was pushed open, a heat wave rushed into the face, dispelling the cold from the body. Dean and the few southern merchants walked to the big brazier in the center of the hotel lobby with the charcoal inside. The block was already burning red, braving the heat, and the fireplace beside it provided a comfortable temperature for the entire hotel lobby.

　　 "This is Huck, welcome to the Snow Bear House, what do you need?"

　　 a tall middle-aged man with a right hand missing asked in a hearty voice.

　　 "Is there a room here?"

　　 asked a southern businessman.

　　 "Single rooms have five coppers a day, while beds are one copper a day. You need to pay for food separately!"

　　 Huck quoted the price very quickly; after all, there would be strange customers several times a year, and he had already memorized this story.

　　 "Give me a single room!"

　　 Dean spoke first.

"And I!"

"me too!"

And just after Dean’s words fell, the southern businessmen immediately reacted and spoke; however, Huck waved his hand, pointed to Dean, and said, "Except for this gentleman, you only have beds. Up!"

　　 "I can add money..."

A southern businessman said, but before he finished speaking, Huck's left hand grabbed the collar of his neck and carried it to him. The brass bell-sized eyes glared at each other and shouted: "Snow Bear I have the final say on the rules of the house, it is not your turn! You are not welcome here!"

　　 While talking, the tall innkeeper seemed to be carrying a kitten and threw the southern businessman out of the door.

　　 And this approach won the booing of the businessmen sitting in the tavern——

　　 "Huck, good job!"

　　 "As expected, "Principled Hack"!"

　　 "Everyone, make a drink to Huck!"

　　……

　　 The fierceness of the innkeeper and the booing of the businessmen in the tavern made several southern businessmen look at each other, and finally they chose to compromise.

　　 Although the single room is comfortable and safe, they are obviously powerless in the face of such a ‘principled’ boss.

And Dean, who knew about it, kept smiling--Huck, the owner of the Snow Bear House; however, ten years ago, he was the deputy commander of the Fecharen Knights, if not the first time a knight If the'baptism' failed, and Kimpton could not save enough for the second'baptism', and because he lost his right hand in a battle with the bandits and completely cut off the road of knights, the current Knights of Fecharen simply cannot let Controlled by a scum like Potts.

In contrast, a scumbag like Potts, stubborn Huck, although he has shortcomings such as grumpy, is undoubtedly a qualified knight, even if he does not have the status of an official knight, he has no benefice, but can only become a hotel. The boss, but his moral character is guaranteed. In the original memory, Dean, who had fought side by side with the other party, was very assured of the other party~www.readwn.com~ so he chose this place as his in Tyre. The temporary foothold of the town.

Of course, the more reason is because Huck served as the attendant of the last Baron Tyre and was once the deputy commander of the Knights of Fecharen. Once something happens, except for the baron, ordinary town The guards above would never dare to be presumptuous here.

　　 After all, many of them were trained by Huck himself.

And this is exactly what Dean needs-although he has made enough backup plans, if there is a real accident, there will undoubtedly be a buffer here, so that he has more preparations; you know, who The tax officer is not so easy to deal with by the dead leader of the Knights of Fecharen.

Even if the tax official did not reach his peak at this moment, Dean did not underestimate the slightest; after all, he did not return to his peak state, not to mention, from the beginning to the end, the tax official was Rely on one's own'wisdom' and rarely rely on strength.

Although this kind of'wisdom' was evaluated by the granddaughter as a'little clever', Dean would not underestimate such a little cleverness-because this is only a comparatively speaking, at least, being exposed by the granddaughter Previously, this tax officer had quite promising prospects.

　　 Of course, that's just the past!

　　 As for now?

　　 In the hallway to the room, Dean, who was walking behind Huck, sneered slightly.
