Chapter 171 Is it too unrefined? (4k)
Everyone who heard this breathed a sigh of relief:
"Sir, you scared us."
"I'm sorry, so is that ok?"
"of course can!"
Needless to say, a horse was led to Moon.
"You can ride a horse, right?"
"of course."
Moon nodded and jumped onto the horse. His movements were skillful and efficient, and also carried an indescribable beauty.
These people who have been on horseback for years couldn't help but exclaimed "good".
Morn almost forgot which file he was in. The game arranged a very strict noble training for him.
That was the harshest time that Moon scolded the production team.
Because learning those things is useless to Moon.
But now.
It’s really useful.
After following the team, Moon learned more.
This is the Principality of Meereen, and they are now heading towards the capital of the principality, Meereen.
This is the custom in many countries here, where the country name is equal to the name of their capital.
At the same time, they are serving a large chamber of commerce called Iron Plate.
Moon had no impression of this chamber of commerce with a strange name, but according to the man, the Iron Chamber of Commerce was an affiliate of the Steelheart Church.
Active exclusively on the Orsay Peninsula.
The main business is buying and selling these precious goods that are neither human nor elf.
To be honest, before he spoke, Moon had no idea that this alone could support a large chamber of commerce.
Moen thought for a moment and asked:
“This phenomenon shouldn’t happen often, right?”
The man went straight back to:
"Not many, only three or four a year, and only six or seven on a good day. But each one is so valuable. Those nobles are spending money like crazy."
Moon probably understood this.
The stronger the elves, the more valuable they are.
Because they are the perfect substitute for elves and can satisfy the nobles' evil psychology to the greatest extent.
And the Ironhide Merchant Guild or the Steelheart Church has probably also driven up the prices.
They not only became substitutes for rare commodities, but also became top luxury goods recognized by the nobility.
The process is also very simple, which is to let them link it with face.
Just like in Moon's hometown, capitalists link diamonds, whose prices plummet as soon as they leave the counter, with love.
They want love, and the nobles want face.
Not bad at all.
"The nobles of Orsay alone can't afford their sky-high prices, so where is the farthest they can be sold to?"
"Except for places like the Forsaken Land, I don't think there's any place I haven't bought before."
"That's why I'm wondering why you, who looks like a noble, don't know about this."
To the man's words, Moen replied:
"I really don't know. There are still many things I don't know. Fortunately, what I know is enough for me."
Looking at Moon who did not deny it, the man pointed at Moon and said with a smile:
"So you are indeed a noble?!"
"I am indeed a member of the nobility."
The man laughed even more and said:
"I knew that people like you don't look like civilians at all."
Moon just smiled and turned to look at the bird in the cage.
After a while, Moen withdrew his gaze and said:
"The interest chain involved in this business is quite broad."
"After all, it is a business that has been going on for three thousand years, so it must be very extensive. But sir, I can see that you are an upright and sympathetic man."
"You are rare among the nobility, at least rare among us."
"So, I want to advise you that although you are a royal noble, you should just pretend that you didn't see this."
The man who spoke sincerely couldn't help but look back at the poor bird in the cage:
"In this matter, we and the Iron Chamber of Commerce behind us are nothing, and even the Grand Dukes of the entire Osay Peninsula are nothing."
"The people who are really implicated in this matter are the great nobles and churches scattered around the world."
After lowering his head slightly, the man seriously advised Moen:
"Her parents gave up on her in the face of such power. You are an outsider with no roots and no involvement in this matter. There is no need for you to risk your life for this, even if you are a noble royal family."
The man couldn't guess Moon's thoughts completely, but he could see something, so he gave Moon some sincere advice.
He has seen many people like Moen.
He had even seen many nobles like Moon.
But in the face of this chain of interests, no one’s words matter.
He still remembers the Marquis who actually took action, but fell seriously ill the next day and unfortunately passed away a few weeks later.
The local tyrants who own fiefdoms, private armies and power are in this situation. What can outsiders do?
There's nothing wrong with talking, there are so many people who talk, but if you really take action, you may lose your life.
The man spoke very sincerely. It was not easy to do this to a stranger.
So Moen also said sincerely:
"Thank you."
In response, the man just said sadly:
"You didn't hear that, did you?"
Mo En smiled and said nothing.
Mortals can't take care of this matter, so he has to take care of it.
The man said that he knew it before.
However, in order to avoid the man's worry, Moon said:
"They usually appear at large auctions, right?"
The man rubbed his brows and said helplessly:
"Yes, this year's harvest is even better, so the specifications this year are far better than in the past ten years. And this one we have is the last one, and the auction will start in about five days."
As he was talking, the man said strangely:
"Do you want to participate in the auction?"
“Save as many as you can.”
Moon had no intention of telling the other party his true thoughts. He just wanted to reassure them.
Rather than making them more terrifying.
"In that case, there is no problem. I even heard that many buyers participated for this reason. However, you may not know how exaggerated the specifications of this auction are."
Moen smiled and said:
"I still have some strength."
"Also, can you take me directly to your Chamber of Commerce headquarters later?"
"Of course you can, but what are you going to do?"
Moen turned around and pointed at the poor girl and said:
"I plan to take her away first, don't worry, in a legal and reasonable way."
Moon wanted to take one away first and see if he could figure out what their "atavism" was.
This will allow Moon to further decide how to resolve the matter.
Is it as a human or as an elf?
The man couldn't help but remind him again:
"Sir, this is an important commodity for five days."
"Since you've already said she's a commodity, then she can be taken away in advance."
“That’s going to be very, very expensive.”
In response to the man's reminder, Moen shook his head and smiled:
"I don't mean to belittle you, but sir, people have different understandings of expensive." No matter how expensive something is, it is ultimately a flashy luxury.
So they can't possibly compare with the real sky-high prices, so Moon's small treasury is definitely enough.
The man's face suddenly turned into a bitter gourd:
"Well, sir, you have completely convinced me."
Time went by very quickly after that.
Moon also followed the man to the Ironhide Guild's headquarters in Meereen.
When he came down, the man explained Moon's purpose of visit to the person in charge of the handover.
The steward looked at Moon in surprise, then quickly turned around and spoke to a magnificent gem.
Soon, the steward came forward and bowed, saying:
"Please come with me, I will take you to the VIP room."
Moon followed the other party through the complex rooms of the Iron Chamber of Commerce.
This was also the first time that Moon saw a chamber of commerce turning its headquarters into a fortress.
There are precedents for trying to gain a foothold in a dangerous place.
But this is the capital of a principality.
And the country doesn’t look like it’s in turmoil.
However, as soon as he came in, Moon took out the magic ring.
The man was right, the Ironhide Chamber of Commerce was indeed an affiliate of the Steelheart Church.
Statues and emblems of the Steelheart Church can be seen almost everywhere here.
Considering his relationship with their main god, Moon could only hide.
Otherwise, Moon didn't want a true god to suddenly come towards him like a madman.
As for what kind of deep hatred there is between Moon and Him.
Actually, it was nothing. Moon just carved some blood words on his king's face to express a little humiliation and disdain.
It’s really nothing, Moon even spared the other person’s life!
After reaching the deepest part, Moon saw a circular hall.
As soon as he came in, Moon touched the wall next to him and said:
"Is this the Forbidden Magic Stone?"
After blowing a breath at the wall and looking at the frost-covered wall, Moon said with a little surprise:
"And it's not a later imitation, but it's really from the Distant Forest?"
This Forbidden Magic Stone that looks like both wood and stone is actually a fossil, formed after the death of a tree in the Distant Forest.
It is a product of the Second Age.
The function is to ban magic and isolate prying eyes.
The person who answered Moon's words was no longer the steward who brought him in, but a new person.
A very charming beauty.
She doesn’t look young, but she is well maintained and therefore has a charm and flavor far beyond that of a young girl.
Moreover, it is meaningless to consider age in the extraordinary world.
The other person was wearing a dark red cheongsam with a high slit. There was no such clothing here. It was brought by Moon.
Because Morn, as the Lionhearted King, felt that the Storm Goddess who changed from Rhongomyniad to Denise was still too old-fashioned, and wanted to change her as much as possible.
So I chose the cheongsam which shows off the female figure and is gorgeous.
Take care of your eyes at the same time.
But I didn’t expect that cheongsam would become so popular.
"You have good taste, sir. This is indeed from the Faraway Forest. It is a gift from three ancient nobles in gratitude for the precious goods we gave them."
“So, can you tell me about your offer?”
Moon directly handed the black water gold card to the other party:
"Go get it yourself."
This wiped out the wealth of almost all the dealers at that time. Although it was only 30%, it was definitely enough.
The woman's men quickly left with Moon's water gold card.
The woman took a few steps forward and approached Moon.
The slit of her cheongsam was very high, reaching her waist, and the vague visibility of it always gave people something to imagine.
Like whether to wear it or not.
Although this was also Moon's original design, it was not meant to be seen by others.
And for a long time, the cheongsam that originated from Moon has always been a private attire.
I heard that this time span is as long as a thousand years.
Later, a belated genius finally thought of changing the slit height of the cheongsam, making it a formal garment.
But this is a bit exaggerated.
Moon didn't even set the light so high for Denise at that time. After all, if she set it that high, she would only see the damn mosaic!
The game the company gave him clearly had no concealment of any of its limbs and broken arms, but these aspects were strictly guarded.
Looking at the beautiful woman right in front of me.
What Moon did was to take two steps back.
This surprised the other party a little.
"You are truly a unique noble. Let me introduce myself. My name is Lilith, Lilith Vasya."
"Are you the president of the Ironhide Merchants Guild?"
"No, I'm just a guest official, stationed here temporarily."
"Then can you discuss this business with me?"
"Of course. Although I'm a guest, I'm also a member of the Ironhide Merchant Guild."
"So when can I take the girl?"
Moon still looked straight ahead.
This made the woman even more interested.
As she answered, she kept walking in front of Moon.
The perfect figure and large areas of white skin were displayed directly in front of Moon.
"It should be soon. We at the Iron Sheet Chamber of Commerce are very fast. Of course, you have to have enough money!"
Moon was about to nod when he suddenly saw the lady named Lilith suddenly turn around in front of him, revealing a very smooth arc.
Having done this, Lilith wanted to appreciate Moon's expression.
But what surprised her was that the man turned around at the first opportunity!
"Well, it seems that you are not a hypocrite. Are you an ascetic from some church?"
"I'm only being respectful to you and myself, Ms. Lilith."
"It's really surprising, but you still seem to be too trusting."
Moen didn't look back, but said unexpectedly:
"It's not what I thought, is it?"
“It should be the same.”
Lilith nodded helplessly.
On her face, which was obviously extremely mature, a girl's sorrowful look was revealed at this moment.
The door that Moon came through was slammed shut. Judging from the sound, the door must have been extremely heavy and must have been blessed or magically cast.
At the same time, there were a lot of footsteps coming from behind Moon.
The woman named Lilith said with great regret:
"You're an interesting man, but how can you let people know that you're alone and carrying a large sum of money?"
Moon said more and more strangely:
"Isn't that too rude? You should know that I am a royal family member, right?"
"But this is a forbidden place for magic. Prayers, supernatural things, and all kinds of supernatural items are forbidden. No one would know that a distinguished royal noble died in such a place."
In response to Moon's question, Lilith, who had brought a chair at some point, sat on it with her legs crossed.
This time, Moon couldn't see any erotic scenes.
But instead there were seven or eight heavily-armored warriors beside her.
"I actually thought about this situation, but I really didn't expect you to be so unrefined."
Lilith, who was sitting on a chair with her legs crossed, tilted her head and asked curiously:
"Then have you made any corresponding preparations?"
