Chapter Three [Black Street]
I want to say that the wildest, most energetic and most chaotic place in Yehuo Town is "Black Street".
Black Street is not an official title. In fact, whether it was the Byzantine Empire or Odin, the occupation of Wildfire Town was very short. It was too short to register all the streets and buildings of Wildfire Town. The more foolish Odins below did not even count the population.
Xiuhe Street is a customary name, which is located on the west side of the town of Yehuo Town, the street closest to the periphery. This street was originally very wide and was considered to be the most spacious street in the town. It could have accommodated two carriages side by side—this kind of road, not to mention difficult to see in such a backcountry, even in the civilized Byzantine Empire Just standard equipment in some big cities.
However, what I just said is that "it was originally" that it could accommodate two carriages side by side-if there were not so many vendors occupying the road on this street.
Here is all the weird stuff from all over the mainland, southeast, northwest, and northeast. Anything you can't imagine can be found here.
Of course, if you want to buy something, no matter it is rare or weird, as long as you come to this black street in Yehuozhen and put a buying sign on it, it will take less than half a day, there will be several Insidious looking guy in dirty robes came running up to you and asked how much he was willing to pay.
These people are not liars, not even beggars. It was the liaison of some mercenary tribes.
There are many large and small tribes on the wildfire plains. The large ones even have thousands, and the small ones have hundreds. Some of these tribes do mercenary work, but more of them are gangs of thieves.
For these tribes, it is difficult to distinguish whether they are mercenaries or thieves-it depends on their mood.
There is a saying in Byzantines that the mercenary regiment and the thief regiment are distinguished by:
"If you hire a mercenary to be a bodyguard, then you can pay afterwards. If they suddenly feel bad, they will not only take your money, but they will also **** you up-this time, they are the thieves . "
Of course, this saying has been strongly resisted by the Wangdu Trading Association, because the Trading Association has repeatedly stated that only those registered mercenary regiments are legal and regular. These regular mercenary regiments are law-abiding. Those who are also robbers are also illegal black gangs.
But it was these black gangs on the wildfire that helped a lot. They dare to take any job, and they are willing to do everything!
If you have enough money, they even dare to do a lot of hard work! For example, to arrest dwarven slaves, those regular mercenary regiments are not allowed, but what about these black gangs ... hey, how much would you pay?
Although the natural environment is harsh, it has to be said that Wildfire is a place with great business opportunities! This is the buffer zone between Byzantium and the Odin Empire, and the only way to trade between the two empires. Odin's business group, the Byzantine business group, must go through here if they want to do business in the other country.
The area is vast, and the wildfires with harsh geographical environment are dangerous everywhere. Just north of Wildfire Town is the Blue Basin on Wildfire Plains-this is the place for those fierce and lonely dwarves. If you are a caravan of humans, it is best not to get there, otherwise, maybe some days later, your skull will be made into lacquerware and hung on the shelf of a shop in Black Street.
Only a few merchant groups that have established trust with the dwarves can approach the dwarven territory and make some transactions with them.
If the dwarves are still observant (as long as you don't pass, they will not come to provoke you), then the goblin is the real headache. These guys are like rat mice. In the northern part of Wildfire Plains, they are breeding in a nest, these things are the real robbers-they grab everything, eat, wear, and use it. They even eat everything.
Congratulations if you are unfortunately caught by them.
Your meat will be dried into jerky, your bones will be ground into powder, and your hair will be knitted into blankets by those goblins! All in all, Goblin possesses a very good quality that is extremely lacking in humans: saving simplicity!
The trade of wearing off-road fireland is very dangerous and also very profitable!
的 Sophisticated armored weapons, horses, cattle and sheep, ore, art ...
The finest fur produced by the northern Odin empire, as well as various crystals, and various sculptures (It's ironic! The Odin people have always been synonymous with rudeness and ignorance, but this is a stupid country, but it has the best in the world The carving technique of the Byzantine Empire has kept the carving artists from raising their heads. However, to show disdain, the explanation of the Byzantines is: those Odins, all their lives are divided into three parts: three One-third of the time is spent fighting, one-third of the time is used for mating, and one-third of the time is used to sculpt idols and pray.)
这些 However, only those large business groups with great strength can do these businesses.
And if those small caravans want to do this kind of trading, then you must first put out the energy to pin your head on the waistband.
Of course, in the face of huge profits, many people are willing to die. At least most of the guys who came to Wildfire Town came with dreams of getting rich.
Every now and then, there are always one or two lucky people who died nine lives and crossed the wildfire to the other country. The trade was successful and they became rich overnight. This stimulated more people to come to Wildfire with their rich dreams.
There is a saying on the Takino Fire Plain: go outside the town, hold a shovel, and shovel out a shovel of soil in the wild. The adventurer's bones are buried below.
Uh ...
Uh ...
When Xia Yaleiming walked into the black street, his waist was quite straight, mainly because he had filled his stomach-thanks to the fool liar from outside.
Xiuhe Street is no different from the past, except that the band of thieves occupying Wildfire Town was driven away a few days ago, and a mercenary fighter is now patrolling the road. People in Wildfire are used to this kind of thing. And these new mercenary regiments here are very disciplined and have not raised tax rates.
By the way, the tax rate in Wildfire Town is very simple, there is only one tax here: the city tax! No matter who you are or what status you are in, you must pay a copper tax on your head when you enter the city.
Besides this, there are no business taxes and any other taxes.
When Xia Leiming entered the city today, he gave the last copper plate in his pocket to the soldier at the gate.
So if he can't get a job today to make some money, then he really has to join the beggar ...
Crowds are crowded on the black streets, and the noise of quarrels and shouts from the shops and stalls on both sides comes from time to time ... The people here are strong, and people who dare to travel thousands of miles to take risks in this place are mostly not good readers Son-So, there are no good people in Wildfire. These stubborn guys, even bargaining, seem to swear.
Occasionally, some drunks were thrown from the tavern on the side of the road and thrown into the garbage dump at the corner.
There are also some suspicious looking guys sneaking through the crowd, these people are all doing golden finger (thief) work.
Fortunately, none of the Golden Fingers noticed Xia Lei Ming—he looked worse than a beggar.
Xia Ya Lei Ming walked along the trend of people, looking around, looking for work that can make money. His idea was simple. First, he had to make a fortune. His plan was to make a cameo job as a demon hunter.
Demon hunters, and hunters, are two different professions. Although the work is generally similar, the target is different.
How about a hunter, hit rabbits, foxes, pheasants, coyotes and the like, as long as you can shoot arrows and get traps.
But the demon hunter, only one thing is hunted: Warcraft!
When the old guy was alive, Xia Leiming was forbidden to hunt Warcraft, but Xia Leiming didn't want to be a dirt hunter nesting in the mountain all his life. The life of the demon hunter is full of adventure and excitement, and can make money, which is what young people yearn for.
Therefore, he has secretly done this kind of business several times without knowing the old guy, and has successfully hunted down some Warcraft. Unfortunately, he has not saved any money, and most of his income has been turned into alcohol and filled into the house The belly of two alcoholics.
Finally, Xia Leiming found a target.
在 At the end of Black Street, a sign was hanging on the door of a small shop.
"Buy for Warcraft Cub ..."
