Law of the Devil Chapter 142: [Strange fleet]


Chapter 142 [Strange Fleet]

Although it's only early summer, the noon sun is showing a little bit of poison, and the wanton light is shining on the river.

This is the Port of Enke, located about thirty miles downstream of the capital of the Lancang Grand Canal. It is also an important auxiliary port around the capital.

The Lancang Grand Canal of the empire traverses the empire's east and west, and it took the hard work of several generations of emperors of the empire, and the efforts of several generations, opened the major rivers of the Roland mainland from east to west, and then opened to the sea and formed The east and west aorta of the empire. It became an important channel for transfusion of blood to the heart of the empire.

However, with hundreds of years of peaceful and prosperous life, the prosperity of Emperor Capital crowns the mainland, and the original port and quay of Emperor City has been expanded for several generations, but the capacity still cannot meet the increasingly busy traffic. Vessel throughput. Therefore, in order to alleviate and divide the burden of the port of the capital, as early as several decades ago, such a port of Enke was built about thirty miles downstream of the capital to share the throughput of the port of the capital.

Ten years of development, the tax of the port of God City is 20% higher than here, so some small and medium-sized caravans are often willing to dock the fleet here, although the goods have to be landed again Transit to the capital, but fortunately, the tax is a bit cheaper, which also eases the cost of land transportation.

Around the Enke port, a town with tens of thousands of people has been spawned for decades. There are actually several cargo carriage carriages near the imperial capital.

At this moment, right next to a merchant ship terminal in Port Enque, a large ship has just been moored and stabilized. This is a standard sea boat with a three-masted shape. So that when such a ship winds enough at sea, it can be raised to a very fast speed.

The boat is quite stable. Two merchant-looking guys have already jumped off the boat. They whispered and laughed with the official tax official of the empire waiting at the dock. The gold coin, with a sleeve concealed, was stuffed into the tax official's hand, and the other person's eyebrows smiled. Even the inspection was omitted, and the document was signed directly.

A large group of cool labor porters waiting for work on the dock have gathered around in the back, and noisily pleaded, hoping to get a little work.

"Mr. Hire me! Hire me! My manpower is light and handy! If you have any valuable goods, you will definitely not damage your goods!"

"Dear sir, hire me! I have twenty people under me, and each person only needs two copper horns! Two copper horns!"

Amid the noise. A wooden board had been laid down on the other side of the boat, and two tall women walked down from the boat side by side. One of the two women, wearing light knight armor, was beautiful. Especially the pair of slender long legs is even more impressive. The other one is even more surprising. It is actually wearing a white magician robe, but it should be a simple wizard robe. She was completely changed by her own. A robe was changed into two separate gowns, and she wore a thin leather jacket. Looking at the texture, I did n’t know what Warcraft leather was made, and I also approved one Bright red cloak. Even more striking is that the magician has long, dazzling silver hair, and lives in the sunshine. It was supposed to be a charming and lovely face, but it was indifferent, especially with a pair of eyes. It made people look at it, and they couldn't help but feel cold.

Such a rare combination of a female knight and a female magician stepped off the ship and immediately caught the attention of others, but with the female magician snorted coldly, the people close by. Could not help but fight a chill. Quickly retracted his gaze and dared not look at it again.

"Joanna, look. It seems everyone is afraid of you." Ruolin smiled slightly. She looked at the busyness below, sighed, and summoned one of the men on the boat: "Find someone Go and take a look and unload the cargo. There are new cargoes to be loaded on the ship tonight. It ’s so grinded, if you ca n’t load the ship at night, be careful of your legs! "

These two are Dewey's first female knight Joelyn, and the violent female magician Joanna. Du Wei originally sent the reprinted Captain Jack Sparrow with his newly acquired land, George Bush, to the north to find the Snow Wolf Mercenary Corps. The two lived up to expectations and soon found the Snow Wolf Mercenary Corps. After receiving a letter from Du Weidi, the head of the mercenary regiment, Beinrich, was worrying: he had just hunted out a batch of goods from the frozen forest, but the smuggling merchants who were willing to take over were too dark. , Actually pressed the price even 20% lower than usual! Beinrich was troubled by this matter, and just received Dewey's letter. After reading the contents of the letter, he was overjoyed and immediately decided to sell all the goods in Dewey to Dewey.

At the same time, Beinrich also contacted several friends of the small and medium mercenary regiments who had a good relationship with them. After discussion, they decided that as long as Du Wei's bid can be maintained at this level in the future, then all of them will have All the prey are willing to sell all to Dewey.

The captain of the pirates returned with a full load. Anyway, there was a port in the north, so he contacted Ruolin and sent three ships to the north to pick up the cargo. After receiving the goods from the three ships, Ruo Lin was also anxious, this kind of trafficking in Warcraft was illegal after all. You have to wait for Du Wei, the little master, to find a way to get a legal approval. But Du Wei had left the Rollin Plains and came to the imperial capital, so Ruo Lin had to leave for the imperial capital to discuss with Du Wei.

After all, this woman is a person who once took a small adventure group to go south and north. Naturally, she has plans in mind. She thought: under the banner of Dewey's Rowling family, this legal approval is certainly not difficult to obtain. Since In this way, it is better to take a boat directly to the imperial capital along the way! After the imperial capital was received, in the imperial capital, things like the core of warcraft and fur and bones were more expensive than other places, and by the time they would be able to make a lot of money, wouldn't it be a good thing?

So. A total of three cargoes were bought from the north, two of which went south and one entered the Lancang Grand Canal from the entrance of the East China Sea, and then went west to the capital.

It's just that things like Warcraft fur are illegal. Unless there is an official document in the Empire, these things are explicitly prohibited. In order to cover people's eyes, a number of ordinary fur goods were also deliberately trafficked on board. It was the goods of the furry merchant who had a good relationship with Dewey on the plain of Luo Lin's family, and just happened to take this downwind ship to transport the goods to the imperial capital, and saved a lot of freight. After the ship arrived in the imperial capital, the cargo was unloaded and returned At that time, it was an empty ship, and it was just passing through Kote, where the Rollin Plain was located. Ruo Lin promised to return to the ship by air. You can lend the ship to the furnishing owner to deliver the goods, and he happens to be buying a lot of things in Didu. This way, you save a lot of freight. It's just that those joints that have been cleared along the way are all handled by the fur merchants.

Such a ship, but a small part of the cargo is the fur and bones from the body of Warcraft from the frozen forest. There is also a small bag of magic cores, which Ruo Lin took with him.

The two beauties got off the boat, and the unloading place next to them was already handled by the furs boss all the way, just the sailors on the boat. Originally born of pirates, where have you been to the Imperial City? Although it is still more than thirty kilometers away from the imperial capital, the bustling town of Enke has already attracted everyone's attention. There are hotels and hotels not far from the port, and prostitutes dressed in flowery dresses coming and going to solicit guests, and they see a bunch of pirates. My heart is tickling and I can't wait to jump down and spend a lot of time immediately.

Ruolin has been with these pirates for some time. Knowing that these guys are crude by nature, although they are usually strict in management, they also know that they must have Zhang Youchi, and when they see it, they can't help laughing and cursing. They ordered the people on board to disembark in batches to rest in the port, but they were strictly prohibited from causing trouble.

The pirates listened. One eye puts green light. Thank you very much to Ruo Lin, and then take the money. Changing and changing, in less than a moment, they ran halfway, only those unlucky guys who were on duty, watching the happy companions leave, couldn't help cursing.

"Hmm!" Looking at the pirates' elation, Joanna naturally knew that the guys got off the boat and went to the port town for fun. I'm afraid they have to drink alcohol and prostitutes, and think of it here. Annoyed in her heart, if it wasn't for her having been with the pirates these days, she would have been accustomed to these people's rudeness, I'm afraid that a "Ice Storm" magic had already bombarded it. Shuang, whispered angrily: "A bunch of dirty men!"

Ruolin has already been used to it. When she went north and south, she knew most of the rude men of the mercenary regiment. She looked at Joanna's face and smiled, "Miss Joanna, now we are here too. After waiting for the carriage to be prepared, we will go to Emperor Du Wei to see the Master."

"Oh!" There was a strange look on Joanna's face, but she disdain: "What am I going to see that little bastard! Huh, you go! I and you come to the capital, once come Help you to suppress the ship, come here, I have something to do to the imperial capital myself. Well, by the way ... You help me pass a word to the little bastard, and say that my Joanna promised him, I'm done! I owe him both in the future! If I meet him again next time, we must make him suffer a bit! "

Speaking of which, Joanna glanced at Ruo Lin and couldn't help saying: "Ruo Lin, we get along these days. Although your magical talent is not good, the talent of learning martial arts is good, but unfortunately you haven't encountered any good since childhood. Teacher. Although I have taught you some these days, but I know that I am not a teacher, so I ca n’t help you much. Why do people like you follow Du Wei ’s little bastard? Why not follow me? Come on, my teacher is a first-class and strong one in the world, martial arts magic, all mastery, you follow me back, I ask him to accept you as an apprentice ... "

Before she finished, she saw Ruolin looking at herself with a smile, and couldn't help sighing: "Well, I know you want to refuse again. In this case, we'll see you again!"

Speaking, Joanna took a deep look at Ruo Lin and whispered: "Although I have a younger sister, my temperament has never been the same with her. Every time I see her, she gets angry, but you, it makes me very Like, if I could have a sister like you, it would be nice. "

Holding Ruo Lin for a moment. Joanna said goodbye and left. She is a magician, and she is always proud of herself. She does whatever she wants, regardless of the many people around her. She flew up, and then headed towards the capital. The body turned into a breeze. It disappeared in a moment.

This time, the crowd around them immediately boiled. The people on Roland's continent were most in awe of the magician. Seeing suddenly here a magician soared into the sky, casting magic far away, could not help yelling.

Ruolin frowned at the direction in which Joanna was leaving, sighed lowly, raised her head to the ground, and yelled at the few stunned sailors behind her: "Do n’t you see Joanna the magician performing? Is it magic! What is it! Go work! "

Then Ruolin spoke a few words with the men sent by the fur merchant. The furrier in the Rolling Plains seemed to be doomed to hold Dewey the big tree. Among the persons in charge who were sent with the ship this time was his brother, a forty-year-old man.

His name is He Bang. He traveled north and south for half his life. He is a very smart guy. The car, boat, and wharf on this way were all done in front of Ruolin Field, which was very thoughtful. He didn't wait for Ruolin to order, he had already found a cheap warehouse on the port of Enke (because it is a large port with the Emperor back. There are many low-priced leased warehouses around the port town), and he arranged for a boat The goods were unloaded and transported to the warehouse, and a non-stop car and horse dealer were found, and the price was negotiated.

Ruolin is very grateful to him, but Hebang smiled: "When I came, my brother had already ordered, how honorable is Miss Ruolin as a knight. Where can you handle these common things yourself? I do it for me. "

If Ruolin thanked her a few words, Hebang asked again: "The goods on the ship have been removed. Miss Ruolin, will you go to the Imperial City today? Just by the way, I also want to go to the Imperial City to buy from several businesses. I have already sent them. Someone rented a carriage, so let's go on the road. "

"Exactly, I'm going to see our young master, too, and wait for the young master to order. Goods here will be out. Otherwise, I can't stay in the warehouse."

The two were walking on the dock, and suddenly heard a loud horn sound from the canal!

Ruolin looked back. Above the wide river, the main channel was occupied by a fleet of more than a dozen merchant ships. This vast convoy of cargo-laden ships is obviously different from the scattered merchant ships on the river. The leader's boat of this fleet is hung with a flag embroidered with green oak branches, and no one is occupying it. The main channel, even the surrounding merchant ships, knew this flag and avoided it from a distance.

On top of this fleet, there is also a regular Imperial Army wearing uniform armor. Seeing that style, it is actually a regular Imperial Guard!

"This is obviously a merchant ship, and it is not an official banner. Why is there an **** by the Imperial Guard? Such a wide river channel has to be occupied by itself, and it does not let people go side by side with them, so overbearing!" Ruo Lin frowned.

"Is Miss Ruolin the first time to come to the capital?" Hebang glanced and whispered, "Don't say more! The origin of this fleet is not easy!"

"Oh?"

Herbon secretly pointed at the flag of the oak leaf on the head of the fleet and whispered, "See? It's the flag of the Solomon family, this is the merchant ship of the Solomon family. They are the official merchants who are standing against the royal family. , The family's business has His Majesty's members in it. Every year, he earns a lot of gold coins for the royal family, and also helps to take care of many royal industries! Such a background is not comparable to others! "

He Bang Ning Shen looked for a while and said, "The boatyard has a deep waterline. It seems that many heavy goods carried on it are coming to the summer festival, probably from the Solomon's house to the royal family from all over the place. Supply. "

If Ruolin shook her head: "It should not be a offering, the summer festival will be here soon. If it is a offering, I am afraid that it should have been prepared a month ago, and it will be delivered now, and it is too complete ..."

Herbon smiled, "Whatever he sends, has nothing to do with us."

Ruolin nodded, but couldn't help but look at the fleet twice. She was a warrior, and she could see at a glance that it was far away from the fleet, except for the guards, not even the sailors. They are all physically strong, full of energy, and fiercely defending. Ruo Lin's heart is a bit weird ...

It was already afternoon when the Mercedes-Benz came to the capital with the rented carriage. The rented carriage was naturally far less expensive and comfortable than the carriage of the Luo Lin family. It was okay to bump all the way, but I did n’t know that the carriage was originally shipped. What seafood is there, a salty smell in the compartment. It doesn't matter if Ruolin is used to the sea these days. Hebang could not bear it anymore. He was the boss's younger brother. In the home industry, he is also a distinguished person. He is usually waited for, and he feels suffocated in the carriage for a while, and almost does not spit it out.

When arriving at the east gate of Emperor Capital, watching the mighty horses and pedestrians queuing in and out of the Emperor Gate, Ruolin sighed: "Here it is, there are only so many people. When will you wait?"

"This is already good." He Bang smiled bitterly with a nose covering his nose: "I heard that the city gate tax of the Imperial City has increased again ... 唉. When we do business, the goods cannot be shipped directly to the Imperial City port, only Disembarking at the port of Enke and transporting a trip to Emperor Capital by horse carriage, the original freight was added, and the gate tax was increased, and we will lose another ... This business is getting harder and harder. "

When it was time to enter the capital, it was already evening. If Lynn really doesn't want to ride a carriage again, she holds her knighthood. How can she always ride a carriage? Before waiting for the earl's mansion, we took some people to buy a few horses in the city's horse market and sorted out the appearance. Carrying two old subordinates, was also taken down by Du Wei at the same time, Ruo Lin once adventured the team with two followers, an archer. A samurai warrior, three men and three horses, asked all the way, came to Earl's Mansion.

The servants outside the earl's mansion saw someone coming, watching the three of Ruo Lin actually wearing the armor of the Rolling family's own private army, but they had never seen it before. It was strange.

Jorin strode forward and showed her identity. It was Master Du Wei's direct subordinates. The insider informed him. After a while, Mader ran out and immediately took the three of Ruolin in.

Du Wei is hiding in the room alone to study a bunch of Warcraft bones.

Since returning from the earl's study the day before, Dewey hasn't closed his door, only playing with his stuff in the room.

He got a lot of good things from Alec's old lunatic. At home, I dictated the recipe that is said to be a substitute for Mithril. I counted it according to my inventory and found that I had made up more than twenty kinds. There are only seven or eight things, but they don't have them. I guess I don't have any stock in there. If you want to get them, you have to think of another way.

Du Wei doesn't worry about anything else. As long as he can get a seed, he can successfully cultivate it by magically passing time.

Mad is studying the mystery in the recipe carefully, and Mard has already notified him, and then he brings Joelne in.

Du Wei put away her things, closed the door, and met Ruo Lin in the reception room outside.

I haven't seen it for a few months, Ruo Lin seems to have taken off her face, and she has become more and more mature. Her tall body has a more exquisite curve and a full chest. The more rounded the radians, especially the long legs that Du Wei praised, the more youthful and unrestrained.

Living at sea, her skin was tanned into a **** wheat color. Although her face was slightly thinner, she was more energetic.

"Sit down." Du Wei dragged his chin with one hand, leaned lazily on the chair, looked at Ruo Lin, and smiled, "You worked hard. I will remember your credit. Let's go, How come all the way to Didu to come to me? "

Ruolin sat in the next chair beside Du Wei, calmly, and reported the incident again. When it comes to the Snow Wolf Mercenary Regiment uniting several other mercenary regiments who are willing to sell the goods to themselves and hope for long-term cooperation, Du Wei immediately said: "Accept it! Why not accept it, there is no hesitation We have ships and people now, and what we lack is cargo. Head Beinrich is a good friend who has experienced life and death with me, and a person I respect, even more than I have saved more than a hundred lives. He is a trusted person. "

"Yes." Ruo Lin nodded: "I think so too. Before I came, I had already drafted an agreement. Please look over. If there is no problem, I will send someone to the North this time. One more Things ... "

After Ruolin said that she had brought a shipment of goods to the capital this time, Du Wei frowned slightly for a while, and said, "This is a problem, but it should not be difficult to solve. If you wait for two days, I will Find a way to get this done. "

"There is still the problem of money." Ruo Lin smiled bitterly: "In the beginning, you did n’t bring much money to the north of the Jack Sparrow ship. This time we bought so many goods, we have no cash at all. Beinrich, the Snow Wolf Mercenary Regiment, trusts you very much. With his help, we only left a deposit of ten thousand gold coins and shipped the goods first. Therefore, I also ask you for this visit. Money. "

Du Wei immediately called into Mad, and asked Ruolin to follow Mad to pay the money. After thinking about it, Du Wei said, "This time, I will pay 10% more for all the goods to the head of Beinrich. He is my good friend. Thanks again for his help this time, this relationship must not be returned!"

Ruolin immediately nodded and thought for a moment, the horsewoman suddenly said: "Master Dewey, when I was in Port Enke, I saw the fleet of the Roman family on the canal ... But the fleet seemed like It's weird ... "
