Chapter 33

In this way, Zhao Mai had a "hukou" in neibo town and became a "dignified" figure. However, he is still "low-key" living in the guest room of the fireplace tavern, and does not intend to rent or buy houses in the town.

After calculating the daily expenses, if he doesn't make any money at all, all the 70 gold coins will be spent in a month. By then, Zhao Mai will become destitute, which makes him feel a little incredible. The farmers in neibo town are busy and can't earn so much money in a year. Why do they spend so fast?

Calm down to think carefully, list all the expenses for comparison, he can understand the secret. Excluding houses, servants and food, Zhao Mai only needs two or three gold coins a month. In addition, many farmers spin their own clothes, so they need less money. Under the self-sufficient small-scale peasant economy system, land is the biggest capital.

With land, you can grow food to support yourself and build houses on it to keep out the wind and rain. You can feed your own meat, weave your own clothes, and even worry about life, old age, illness and death. Although there are still lords ruling on it, some laws are harsh, and some are still changing, people who own land are really living for themselves. Owning his own land and building his own home has always been Zhao Mai's dream. No wonder he wants to try to get a piece of land here.

"It's basically impossible if you're alone." "There's a lot of ownerless land away from the town," Green said. Although they are all nominally owned by the Lords, they are not interested because no one grows or pays taxes, and the Lords have no income. Which one do you like? As long as you can develop it and pay the tax, no one will tamper with your land. "

"Why do so few people do it?"

"It's too dangerous." Green moved a chair and sat down at the table. He motioned Zhao Mai to sit down too. They had a good talk. "The beast is the first difficulty, but the experienced farmer can deal with it. The more annoying ones are goblins and goutouren. They live in groups, and many villages are destroyed by them before they can form a scale. If they meet orcs or jackals, they have a good military organization. Ordinary adventurers will be defeated. At this time, they can only rely on the Lord's army. Most of the time, they can only be driven away. Encirclement and annihilation are individual cases. You know, the Lords also need to control their own damage. "

"Why don't you use regular military patrols to stop orcs or something?"

"Because there is more danger. Magical beasts, monsters, undead and dragons are not afraid of the army. In these cases, the strength of the adventurer is more trustworthy. Of course, they can only deal with one or two of them. The top strength is a few professional unions, plus the temple. Nebo is connected with the Druid community. Otherwise, how could it develop to such a scale? "

No matter what civilization, has its unique survival skills, which Zhao Mai gradually realized. He spent more than a week doing nothing, just dragging green to chat and strengthen his common language. If not, how can he understand such a complicated introduction?

"You should have paid me more. It's more expensive to hire a professional language instructor than a servant. I've said too much these days, which makes me fat. " Green picked up the ale again and gulped it down.

"No, let's drink water instead." Zhao Mai said jokingly.

Green laughed and stopped complaining. These ale are all bought with Zhao Mai's real money. As long as you don't get drunk, you can run your mouth. He's a drinker himself, which he can't get. Besides, when drinking, there are always people who can chat, no matter what kind of topic, as long as the common language is spoken slowly and the vocabulary is as common as possible.

This is the most comfortable job. How can green be dissatisfied?

Zhao Mai is also very satisfied. Through Green's description, he connected those things on paper with the living world, and gradually formed a flesh and blood image.

The price of flesh and blood is no money. "Green, is there any way to sell some goods safely and untraceably?"

Green stopped drinking. He put down his glass and licked his lips. Then he said, "if it's the first day of meeting, I'll suggest you go to the pile grocery store. They have channels to contact the thieves' Union in the south. Maybe they can satisfy your wishes. But now, I will advise you not to

"Because you think I'm a good man?"

"Bah, I think you are too weak." Green shook his head: "don't look at you with weapons and armor, but to really count up, your combat effectiveness is very worrying, most of the apprentices can defeat you. Your only advantage is that you are smarter than them. You may be better on the spot, but it's not stable. When you meet some cautious opponents, your cleverness will be useless

"You're right. I admit I'm not good at fighting. But how do you see that I'm smart? "

Of course, from the speed of language learning and terrible knowledge. Green won't say it. He just skips the topic: "to be on the safe side, you may not tell me what you want to sell. You won't take it out until you get to the stake grocery store. Originally, I didn't mind this form. Anyway, I can always get a commission. But now I'm worried that you'll take out something extraordinary and be targeted by the thieves' Guild. Then you're basically dead. ""Thank you for your concern. Do you have any suggestions? "

"It's better to take the channel of guilds and protect yourself by using the contract of neibo town. I can help you contact the businessman, write the confidential information into the contract and leave it to the guild for safekeeping. The cost may be higher, but the security is much higher than contacting with the thieves. I think that's what you care more about. "

"Let me think about it." Zhao Mai nodded.

He's not a kid, so he won't just listen to one side of the story. He felt that his common language could cope with most situations, so he was ready to go to the guild. Before signing the contract with green, he was in the guild, so he knew where the guild was and that there were people there who explained the procedures of the guild. The explanation cost of two gold coins is a lot of money for ordinary people, but Zhao Mai thinks it's worth it.

Now he can probably understand what people around him are talking about, and he can also greet people with local formal etiquette, so as not to make a fool of himself. He can even tell which are real beggars and which are detectives of the southern thieves Union. Green once complained that the thieves' Union from nidale in the South was trying to reach North. The Shadow Council (the ruling body of nidel) is not so powerful in military power, but it spares no effort to support the expansion of domestic organizations. It doesn't know what to do.

No matter he is a real beggar or a fake beggar, Zhao Mai puts a copper plate in their small pot. Anyway, he has distinguished all the money, and none of it is a gold coin of fate. In the healthy jungle, money is a rarity, and fortune gold is useless. But when you come to a commercial town, in order to find other gold coins of fate, you naturally have to take the previous one with you.

Find a craftsman to make a pendant, inlay the gold coin, and then wear it close to the body. Zhao Maiqi hoped that it could sense other gold coins as soon as possible, so that it could master greater freedom by shuttling between the two worlds.

"Boy, can you come and talk about it?" Walking in the street, Zhao Mai heard Chinese.

He turned around and saw that no one was talking to him. He looked at the grain reserve and found that the dog was just staring at a black cat by the road, snoring in the throat, showing some vigilance.

"Tianyutong, remember?" The cat waved like a Fortune Cat in a shop. Then it turned around and got into a storefront under the crack of the door.

Looking up at the sign, there are all kinds of vegetables and flowers. Is it the shop run by the Druids? Zhao Mai grabbed his head, picked up the grain reserve and went in.
