Chapter 240: 239. The Young Baron's Curtain Call
Chapter 240 239. The Curtain Call of the Young Baron
The magician turned around and waved. A young magic assistant ran up from behind. The young magician assistant took out 8 gold coins and handed them to Suldak, and then began to put the salamander meat into his magic pocket.
After buying the salamander meat, the magician refused to leave. He stared at Suldak as he rolled up the hard cowhide on the ground, and couldn't help asking, "Aren't you going to sell other salamander meat?"
Suldak thought of the salamander head and leather that he had left behind. He was going to use the salamander head as a sacrifice, and planned to sacrifice it in the ceremony. As for the leather, I still want to make another set of light leather armor in the future.
"I don't have any plans for the time being." Suldak stood up and said.
The magician didn't care about what Suldak said, but said to Suldak casually: "If you didn't eat it, remember to keep the salamander heart and stomach pouch next time. Also worth the money."
Suldak was taken aback for a moment. When dealing with the salamander, the heart, stomach sac and other internal organs were buried on the spot. Unexpectedly, they were also some valuable magic materials. Thinking about the conditions in the future, he processed these monster materials The 'Eye of Reality' should be turned on at the right time, and there should be no such mistakes.
The magician was about to leave with his assistant, but he stopped after taking a step, turned around and said to Suldak, "Oh, by the way, if you have fresh salamander meat, you can send it directly to the alchemy experiment of the magic union. Go to the room, and say that I will deliver the magic beast ingredients to Magician Francis, and I will give you a satisfactory price whether I am there or not."
"Okay, Master Francis Magician." Suldak gave a knightly salute to the magician.
Magician Francis nodded slightly at Suldak with a straight face, and then left the black market hall with his assistant.
It wasn't until the magician Francis' figure completely disappeared from Suldak's eyes that he let out a sigh of relief and discussed excitedly with Karl: "Is it so fun to ship here?"
Karl smiled, patted Suldak on the shoulder and said, "That's because you were lucky and met the right buyer."
After selling the salamander meat, Suldak felt that there was no need to stay in the underground exchange. When he went out, he paid a small amount of tax, and then led the horse and followed Karl from the underground exchange.
…
This magic item exchange looks quite formal, and I don't know why it is called an underground exchange.
When the two returned to the street, there was a square-style park opposite. Such a large square was rare in Hailansa City. There was a row of shady street trees around the square, and some benches were scattered around. An old woman in a long linen dress was sitting on a bench with a cane in her hand. A few children gathered by the fountain in the center of the square, thinking whether to play in the fountain.
Karl stood on the side of the street, looked left and right, then raised his head and asked Suldak, "What are your plans for this afternoon?"
Suldak tapped his head, thought about it seriously, and thought of the entrustment of the village chief Bright, to exchange the part of the money belonging to the village into some iron parts, it is necessary to go to the blacksmith shop, so he said: "I still I want to go to the smithy to buy some things, and then pay a visit to Baron Sidney's house."
Since he returned safely from the Warsaw plane, it is necessary to meet Baron Sidney's family, at least his knight status is given by Baron Sidney.
However, Karl said to Suldak: "It's inappropriate to visit at this time, especially when the host is away, some etiquette needs to be paid more attention to."
The two continued to walk along the sidewalk on the side of the square. Karl said to Suldak: "According to noble etiquette, if you want to visit Baron Sidney's family, you must first write a letter and make an appointment with the other party to visit." You can wait until the other party gives a definite answer before you can visit, so the fastest date for visiting will have to wait until tomorrow at least."
"Then I'll find a hotel first, write a letter and send it there, and then go to the blacksmith shop." Suldak thought so.
Suldak stopped, stood on the edge of the lawn covered with small white flowers, and said to the Hailanza man who had helped him twice but did not ask for anything in return: "Carl!"
The knight badge on his chest was shining brightly in Suldak's eyes. With a faint smile on his face, he maintained a gentlemanly demeanor at all times, and asked Suldak: "What?"
Suldak asked with a smile: "Do you want to have a drink together tonight?"
Carl spread his hands and said, "No problem, I will arrange this, and I should do my best."
There is a hotel across the street from Park Plaza, and Suldak chose to stay in this hotel nearby.
Carl was going to attend the routine meeting of the High Lansa City Guard Battalion in the afternoon, so he got up to say goodbye, and agreed to meet at the hotel entrance in the evening before leaving.
…
The hotel opposite the park square is not big, and it is covered by a row of golden oak trees. The sun shines on the red rubble of the hotel, making the three-story building look new, and the paint on the walls has not faded in the slightest. The rooms on the third floor They all have a small balcony. Standing on the balcony, Surdak can vaguely see the square through the cracks in the oak trees.
There are not many guests in the hotel, and the one standing at the front desk is a charming proprietress who is also the cook of the hotel. As for the owner of the hotel, he also serves as the hotel bellman, groom and handyman, etc. The hotel had no other employees except a temporary laundress.
The main reason is that very few travelers come to Hailansa Mountain City. This hotel can be maintained at a low cost.
He sat on the only chair on the balcony, holding eight gold coins in his hand, three of which belonged to the village, and each of the five young people who helped him will also receive fifty silver coins, leaving only two for himself Gold coins and fifty silver coins, he kept the money in his pockets separately.
There was a knock on the door, and Suldak got up to open the door. The proprietress stood outside the door with a pot of hazelnut milk tea, an envelope, a piece of paper and a quill. She didn’t know how much the envelope and paper were worth. Ke habitually tipped the proprietress ten copper coins.
Seeing that Suldak was polite and generous, the proprietress pulled the long skirt revealing a large snow-white chest, and said to Suldak with a charming smile: "Master Knight, do you have any other needs?"
Suldak shook his head slightly, and stopped the proprietress before closing the door, and said to her, "I'm going out to eat tonight, so there's no need to prepare my dinner."
"..."
The proprietress still wanted to answer the call, but there was a bang, and the door of the room was closed.
‘It’s really a country bag! '
The proprietress cursed in her heart, then turned and left.
…
Suldak left the hotel on a horse.
He knew the address of Baron Sidney in Hailansa City, and asked the hotel owner in detail how to get there before he could find the house.
Although Baron Sidney's territory is located in a remote area of Hailansa City, Baron Sidney has settled in Hailansa City because he has studied at Hailansa Knight Academy for four years. Usually his territory is only The old butler is taking care of it.
The elder sister of Baron Sidney is married to Earl Mond Goss, a nobleman in High Lansa City, and he is usually taken care of by Ms.
Suldak doesn't know much about Baron Sidney, and he doesn't know what other family members he has besides his sister. Since Miss Hathaway is his fiancée, he should not be married yet. He thought wildly in his heart.
The residence of Baron Sidney is located in the wealthy area of Hailansa City. Basically, some nobles in the city live here. Lush golden oaks and silver oaks are planted on both sides of the flat street. The acorns fell with a muffled 'bang'.
Suldak carefully checked the house number at the gate, and then knocked on the door, intending to hand the prepared letter to the housekeeper or the maid who opened the door, whichever one is fine, but he waited at the door For a long time, no one opened the door, so he could only ride away resentfully.
Before leaving, I glanced into the yard through the courtyard wall, only to find that the fallen leaves in this courtyard have covered the corridor, and it looks like no one has lived in it for a long time.
The horse's hoof stepped on the stone slab, making a light tapping sound...
