Chapter 249 Zhanlan City (ask for a monthly ticket, recommended ticket)
Looking from a distance, you can see the undulating silhouette of the phantom in the distance, and it seems that there are still tiny black spots moored at the pier. Although you can't see the color, you can feel the prosperity.
"Finally going ashore!"
Leite let out a long breath, the long journey was somewhat boring, but when he arrived at the shore and returned to the human world, he felt inexplicably relaxed.
It is still the Kraken Wharf, the path that Leiter came to. At this time, the wharf is still moored with countless ships of various sizes. Many crew members and sailors are coming and going on the deck, busy with various tasks. And when they watched Leiter flying in the sky on a fire grid, they all cast envious eyes. Flying monsters is the dream of most people.
Rett scanned the harbor below, paid attention to every ship, and found the traces of the merchant ships of the Dalton Chamber of Commerce.
Last month, before going to the stormy sea area to subdue the shock elves, he rescued a wave of distressed Dalton merchant ships and wiped out all the pirates of the Red Moon. There is no follow-up chase.
Logically, Leiter also gained the sincere friendship from the Coastal Branch of the Dalton Chamber of Commerce.
His Panlong is relatively popular, but it is placed within the Dalton Chamber of Commerce, and the bulk of the profits are only in the hands of the headquarters and the branch in charge of Carlton, who facilitated the cooperation. I didn't feel much either.
But it is different now. With this experience, Leiter has established a good relationship with the coastal branch of the Dalton Chamber of Commerce.
It is equivalent to developing contacts along the coast of Donglan, and it can even be used as a reliable news channel. After all, Leiter needs to use the hands of the Doton Chamber of Commerce to investigate the truth of the rainbow shell and find out who is suspected of knowing about the rainbow shell. the mysterious man.
He still has a grudge about the original simulation, the mysterious person who killed him because of the rainbow shell. At that time, it was because he let the bard's friend Gade know the news of the rainbow shell in the simulation. It is suspected that it leaked to Manatee Island off the coast of Donglan, causing death.
Tonight is different from the past, Leiter has reached the pinnacle of Magister, especially the three mysteries, so that he has full confidence in his own combat power.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of coming to Donglan Coast this time, he felt that it was time to investigate the inside story...
Leite looked at the Dalton merchant's ships, which were empty, only a small number of sailors guarded the ships, including the goods on board, which were also completely clean.
"It seems that it has been a few days since I returned. At this time, it is estimated that the relevant members have returned to the chamber of commerce, so I will go directly to the chamber of commerce to visit."
While thinking, Leiter ordered Huo Ge to rush towards the city.
Zhanlan City, the largest main city along the East Blue Coast, is also the territory of Augustus, the Grand Duke of Blue Diamond. Looking at the ocean-like deep city wall, one feels relaxed and happy.
Zhanlan City has a history of more than two hundred years, which is longer than the cities on the southwest border. The walls are not made of natural rocks, but are mixed with gems, crystals and other brightly colored ores, which are mixed and smelted with rocks to create semi- The transparent blue walls, and the magic is that under the light, it does not reflect the dazzling light, but is more restrained.
Leite spent most of the day arriving. Looking down at the city by the sea, he let Huo Ge land from afar, and one person and one beast went straight in.
The guarding knights at the gate are tall and straight, and they are divided into two rows to strictly guard. Leiter observed that there were even intermediate knights among them, and he felt envious when he saw it.
At present, his territory has not yet cultivated such a level of knights, and perhaps Lawrence will be the first!
The broad leaves hang down, the sun is shining brightly, and the wind carries the breath of the ocean. Just walking in Zhanlan City, LTECH has experienced a different style, which is a feeling that inland cities have never had before!
In the middle of the street in this coastal city, a long row of milk coconut trees is planted. I heard that the coconut juice inside is as pure as milk. It is a very precious variety and tastes very delicious!
In this situation, Leiter subconsciously put down his footsteps, savoring the different style carefully.
He walked slowly along the main road to the intersection, and saw a circus in an open field a hundred meters away from the corner.
There are monsters participating in the performance, and there are also three orcs, a tauren, a pig-headed man, and a night owl man. There are quite a lot of people gathered around, with high enthusiasm and endless shouting.
Leiter raised his mouth and watched from a distance alone with great interest, and then left alone.
Looking at the sign at the intersection, one of the red arrows points to the west, and the words 'Dalton Chamber of Commerce' are written on the shoulder. After all, it is an established and powerful chamber of commerce, which generates a lot of tax revenue every year. It is very normal to receive such preferential treatment.
Seeing this, Leiter's thoughts could not help but spread. He should have thought of the importance of the advertising space earlier, maybe... he can also arrange it for Dark Eagle City after returning!
All the way to the door of the Dalton Chamber of Commerce, the four-story chamber of commerce, surrounded by a layer of black crystal outer wall about ten meters high, absorbs all the light, revealing a low-key luxury and noble atmosphere.
Lett knew that the decoration of the Dalton Chamber of Commerce does not have to be unified across the country, so each place has its own characteristics.
It was almost as if Leiter had just arrived at the steps in front of the door. Before entering, he saw a familiar figure walking down the corner of the stairs deep in the hall.
Because Dashiell's office is upstairs, he saw Leiter's arrival through the black crystal glass, so he rushed downstairs.
He greeted him enthusiastically. After all, some time ago in the East Blue Sea, their caravan was intercepted by a red moon pirate ship. The Earl Leiter in front of him was a righteous person who helped him out and wiped out the entire ship in the sea. It was astonishing. His strength made him admire.
"Oh, the refreshing sea breeze is accompanied by the arrival of important guests, Earl Leiter, it's a pleasure to see you again."
Dahir was wearing a well-fitting dress, with a bald forehead and a warm smile on his face, and came to Leiter to greet him.
"Thanks to you, the second and third leaders of the Red Moon Pirates were wiped out, and we were able to return with a full load and return to the voyage smoothly. This injury is not a big deal." Dashir shrugged and said, stroking the already dead body on his arm. Scabbed ten centimeters long wound.
"Oh? It's been found out. Those two are the second and third leaders of the Red Moon Pirates?" Leiter asked casually. He didn't care about it. He came here this time mainly to learn about other things.
"That's right, the Red Moon Pirates were newly established in the past two years. In the past, there was only the captain. The original second leader was a fifth-level earth knight. But according to the latest information, the previous second leader died unexpectedly. What we encountered that day were two mid-level transcendents who just joined three months ago. However, they had just started their pirate journey, and unfortunately they met you, and they all died."
Dashiell's eyes were bright, and the battle scene that day reappeared in his mind, and then he thought that the other party was only in his forties, and he had the level of a sixth-level magister. This is definitely a genius, and there is even hope in the future. Promoted to the Great Magister! He has secretly decided that he must make good friends with this Earl Leiter!
Lei Te nodded, and heard Dashiel continue to say in a more enthusiastic voice: "Since we are here, let Earl Lei Te come in and have a look. Last time we traveled by sea to the ports of many cities in the Huilu Kingdom, we got a lot of deals. Novelty things, maybe there are items you are interested in."
"Oh?" Hearing that it was the Kingdom of Huilu, Lei Te's face changed slightly, and he agreed, and they entered the hall together.
Huilu Kingdom is located in the northeast of Rim Kingdom, but its southeast corner extends a long tentacles on the map, making it the most closely traded cities along the coast with the Jinlun Kingdom, and thus flourishing and developing.
The coastal branch has a special exotic counter, and the decoration is also different from other counters. Dashiel led Leiter aside, and introduced fluently:
"This is the Huilu Kingdom's Echo Conch. It can preserve the sound for a week. It's an interesting gadget..."
"This is crispy seaweed, a kind of local taste, quite popular among local nobles, it is harmless to the human body, but can play many wonderful effects..."
"There is also this earth-type magic wand, which is exquisite in workmanship and is just at the intermediate level. If Earl Leiter likes it, please take it!"
Rett looked at a colorful magic wand on the counter, and was not interested. Instead, he asked, "Can the magic wand be considered a specialty there?"
"Hehe, of course not, but the items we buy are not only special products, but also some low-priced items, as long as the profit is enough, we have never refused." In several coastal cities of the Huilu Kingdom, there are many shady items that have been resold to us at relatively low prices..."
"So that's how it is..." In this way, Lei Te immediately understood that selling stolen goods is very common...
Following Dashiell again, he scanned around the bright crystal counters and saw many unique novelties, which enriched his knowledge. But in general, there are no really eye-catching products, and there is nothing that can help LTE.
Feeling that the visit is almost over, Leiter said casually after seeing a stone that can change into seven colors according to the temperature: "Vice President Dashiell, isn't the president at the chamber of commerce today?"
"That's right, some time ago, the headquarters held a temporary meeting, which seemed to be quite urgent. The president went to Wangcheng to listen to the temporary meeting." Dashiel replied.
Leite's heart moved, he went to Wangcheng for a meeting? Could it be... related to the fact that the royal family is about to announce that he has made great achievements and was promoted to Marquis?
Not to mention, this possibility is not small. Although it is not yet the date for the royal family to publicly announce the news, such a major decision must not be made on the day of the announcement, and must have been discussed in advance.
With the century-old operation of the Doton Chamber of Commerce, there must be special contacts and news channels in the royal family, and it is not impossible to get such news.
He remained calm on the surface, and asked, "Did you say what exactly happened?"
"That's not true, and the date of return has not been confirmed. If you have something to do with him, I will tell you when the president returns." Dashir shook his head and said.
After finishing speaking, Dashiel looked at Leiter and asked curiously: "I don't know what happened to Earl Leiter, maybe I can help you too?"
Rett looked at Daher, pondered for a moment, and said, "It's not a big deal, I just want to know some information."
Hearing this, Dashiel suddenly showed a confident smile, stroked his chest and said, "If Earl Leiter wants to inquire about news, you are the right person to ask me. Although I am the vice president, I am out to supervise, contact, I am in charge of most of the process of foreign exchanges such as negotiations, so I really know a lot about the Donglan coast. What aspect do you want to ask?"
Leite's eyes flashed strangely, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Do you know much about the situation on Manatee Island?"
"Manatee Island?" Dashir was a little startled when he heard the words. He didn't expect this question. He frowned. He first took Lei Te to a secluded room, and after the two of them were seated, he said, "Manatee Island is It’s a chaotic place, and I had some contacts when I was there, but...with the particularity of that place, I can’t possibly know everything about it. What information does Earl Leiter want to know about Manatee Island?”
"Is there anyone in charge on Manatee Island? Or is it just a spontaneous gathering place." Leiter asked after a little thought.
"Well, I don't know the original history of Manatee Island, but now the black market on the island is controlled by Quentin Monroe, one of the four major pirates in the East Blue Sea. Quentin Monroe actually owns many industries on the island. Ting’s leader is in the town.” Dashir said slowly: “And I heard that it has a secret cooperation with some forces in the Huilu Kingdom, and it specializes in dealing with some people or goods that are inconvenient to sell there.”
It means doing slave trades and assassination deals, as well as assisting in the sale of stolen goods... Leiter asked curiously: "The kingdom doesn't care? Or what is the attitude of Grand Duke Blue Diamond?"
"It should be regarded as acquiescence. After all, Quentin is very smart. He knows who can provoke and who should not. He has never attacked the royal family and the merchant ships of the Grand Duke Blue Diamond. And there are gossip rumors that Manatee Island will send the Grand Duke Blue Diamond every year. A lot of property." Daher shrugged and said.
Watching Leiter fall silent, Dashiel took a sip of tea and asked, "Earl Leiter, could it be... your enemy on Manatee Island?"
I don’t blame him for making such associations. After all, that chaotic place concealed an unknown amount of filth. Inquiring about Manatee Island’s news is nothing more than being interested in things or people.
But this is the Dalton Chamber of Commerce. If you want to know about a certain item, it is a better choice to ask them. Then the rest...the only option is to find someone...
