Chapter 44
Chapter 44 0 Sailing City
After two days of life as a sailor, Henry and his group of five ships finally arrived at Luskan, the city of a thousand sails, and he suffered a lot in two days. Every day, he used flying techniques to help the sailors reel the sails between the various ships, anchored the side sails, and changed the direction of the mast receiving the wind, and so on. Now it was finally over. He stood on the ship and watched the fleet slowly heading towards the port. Captain Hawke is already a veritable admiral. He already owns five large ships, but to his regret, there are currently only 21 sailors with the boss. He said to Henry standing on the bow: “We need a large number of sailors, otherwise it would be a big problem whether we can get the boat back.”
Henry gave a wry smile and said: “I totally agree with this. I’ll give you some gold coins to recruit some sailors. But be careful of spies and pirate spies from various forces.” Hawke smiled and said, “Mr. Don’t worry,” I have been to Deepwater City, Luskan, and Baldur’s Gate for many years. There are special channels to hire clean sailors. By the way, do you mind half-orcs and barbarians?” Henry pulled out some money. The bag of about 1,500 gold coins was handed to the captain and said: “As long as I observe discipline and pay attention to hygiene, I don’t have any racial prejudices, even dark elves, beholders and the night of the heart are okay.” Hawk laughed when he heard it. Said: “My boss, I don’t have such a great ability to get these monsters.” After speaking, the two people silently stared at the approaching city.
There are more than 15,000 houses in the city of Luskan. The city has built strong fortifications along the harbor and it looks very magnificent. The city wall surrounds Luskan, and there is a specially designed watchtower on it, and countless soldiers are walking up and down. After a while, the port sent a small boat to pick it up. After learning that the group was here to buy slaves, the port officials smiled. After paying the berthing fee for the five ships, all the ships docked. Due to the small number of people on the ship, Captain Hawke ordered all sailors not to leave the ship, because there are a large amount of spices, silks and a small amount of drugs seized from the pirate ship on the Sword, in addition to a thousand sets of standard stainless steel weapons and armor. .
After getting off the ship, Hawke said to Henry: “My dear boss, I am going to the Bent Shortsword Tavern to hire some reliable sailors, by the way, contact some channels to sell the drugs, spices and silks on the ship. You confirm the weapons And the armor to stay?” Henry looked at the surroundings and said, “Yes, we will soon have a large number of slaves to manage. These weapons and armors are just enough to arm the guard that has been good.” The captain lit up. After his pipe, he said, “Okay, you first go to the city and turn into the night and come to Bend the dagger to find me. And beware of the thieves, gangsters and beggars here. Outsiders are not welcome in this city.” Walk along the path called Banyue Street.
handed all the five ships to the sailor and told him not to let anyone aboard, then Henry took Amy into this chaotic city. Luskan’s streets are lined with two to three floors of closely connected buildings, and most people live in crowds. There are countless kinds of sentries and watch towers on the roof, and all kinds of dangerous and curious eyes shot at the two of them from these dark holes. Henry smiled and took Amy’s hand and walked down the street. He saw many strange faces along the way. For example, the tauren with a large axe, the northern barbarians with huge weapons, and a few half-orcs with green skin. “This is really a messy city!” He said with emotion to the girl beside him.
Suddenly a figure slammed into Amy’s side and quickly wanted to get into the alley. Henry laughed and then a frozen ray made the little thief fall to the ground. After walking over, he picked up the little guy who was less than one meter away. He took a closer look and found that this was a halfling. He grabbed Amy’s stolen dimension bag and threw it to the girl and said, “Be wary in this city. There may be more thieves here than the merchants in Baldur’s Gate.” Amy was ashamed and lowered her head. Thank you. After educating his servant, he turned his head and looked at the halfling and said, “Well, little thief, since you have been caught, introduce yourself. Otherwise, you should know the consequences of angering a mage.” The halfling began to tremble with fear when he heard this sentence. He was too aware of the consequences of irritating a mage. Ruling the city is a famous mage organization Arcane Brotherhood. He has seen angry members of the Brotherhood blow up a thieves’ union with fireballs. The halfling said cautiously: “I’m sorry, respectable Mr. Mage. My name is Jimmy, and I am a thief under the commander of Baram. Please don’t kill me.”
Henry touched his chin and said, “I don’t need to kill you, but you have to contact Baram for me. Just say that there is a big client who wants to see him, and the specific business will be discussed after the meeting.” Jimmy heard that before his eyes. The mage of “didn’t plan to kill him and immediately stopped shaking. He straightened his hair and said, “Dear mage, I will bring your words to you. But it’s not me, this little thief, how the leader will deal with it. I can manage it.” Henry nodded and said, “You just need to take my words to you, and you don’t need to be responsible for the others. If you have news, come to the Dagger Hotel to find me at any time.” After that, he put the halfling out. To the ground. The little dwarf who was less than one meter bowed deeply at the two of them, then turned and ran away.
Seeing the halfling running fast, Henry smiled. He said to Amy: “Seeing it or not, this is the power of the spellcaster. You don’t even need to use too many spells, sometimes you just need to show your identity and use some wisdom. Can solve most problems.” The girl lowered her head and meditated for a while and said: “I understand the master, and I will look at the problem from the perspective of a warlock in the future.” He took Amy to look far away. I took a look at the tower belonging to the Arcane Brotherhood, then visited the command area, and finally watched three sea-crossing bridges. Soon in the evening, the two returned to the dock area. Walk into Half Moon Street, the last street of the pier, where the tramps and villains gather. Everyone stares at Henry and Amy unkindly. Henry raised his right index finger gently and said to the girl next to him: “Close your eyes.” After talking about a flashing technique, he was excited. After a large number of malicious people around screamed, he cursed loudly and quickly fled. Here. Almost everyone knows that spellcasters are not easy to mess with, regardless of whether they use magic or spells.
“We’re here.” Henry pointed to a small hotel opposite. A group of people at the door saw that it was the wizard who had just blinded their eyes. They quickly dispersed and went into the dark, revealing the shabby sign with the word “Short” written on it. sword. Amy’s mouth rose slightly after seeing the tramp who had been staring at her just now, and now the girl finally realized that she was already a magical warlock. The first thing I saw when I walked into the hotel was a woman with heavy makeup and too much perfume. They worked hard to find every man who could pay gold coins. A large number of sailors drank ale, fruit wine, or expensive spirits here, and then started to move with a woman in their arms. All kinds of **** images make Amy unbearable.
Henry quickly found Captain Hawke who was talking to others in a quiet corner. He took the girl’s waist and hugged her in his arms so as to avoid all kinds of hands and feet that stretched out to take advantage of him, and then let go of his hands after squeezing through the crowd. He said loudly to the table: “My dear captain, can’t you find a better hotel. The environment here is really terrible.” Hawke said after seeing the person who was talking in the back. He stood up and said to Henry: “Welcome to my boss, you must know that other places cannot hire sailors with clean backgrounds. And my previous shipping channels only show up here. Come and I will introduce you to each other.” After he took Henry to the table. Then he said to the fat middle-aged man sitting in the chair: “Bruce, this is my new boss, Mr. Henry. He is not only a wealthy lord but also a powerful wizard. The boss is Bruce my previous Incoming and outgoing channels.”
The fat man stood up and handed a hand to him and said, “Hello, respected Mr. Master, I heard that you have a lot of spices, silks and a small amount of drugs that you want to sell?” Henry shook his fat palm and said: ” I originally came here just to buy some slaves. You know that my territory is now in need of a healthy labor force. But on the way there was a pirate who tried to looting my merchant ship. I readily taught them a lesson. UU Reading www.uukanshu .com estimates that most pirates have now entered the shark’s stomach. These things are pirate trophies. I don’t think this will cause you any trouble, right?” Bruce sat down in the chair again and shook his hand vigorously.” No, of course not. This is Luskan! It doesn’t matter whether you **** it or some other method. How much do you have?” Captain Hawke took the topic and said, “Bruce, I Dear friend, we have about two hundred tons of various spices, three thousand five hundred pieces of silk and satin, and about five tons of drugs. Now you can give us a price.”
Bruce lowered his head and began to calculate. After a while, he raised his head and said, “I pay 100,000 gold coins for spices, 40,000 satin, and 80,000 drugs. But I can’t pay so much cash at once and need some other commodities to offset the account.” Henry turned his head to look at his captain, and Hawke nodded slightly. “Well, I agree with the price. But I only want healthy slaves for the goods that are settled.” Henry said. Bruce laughed and said, “My dear friend, this is Luskan! There will never be a shortage of slaves, but we need to talk about the price first. According to the market price, 80 gold coins for men aged 16 to 35, and 10 for adults. There are 50 gold coins for women between the ages of 6 and 30. Those over 35 years old are counted as 35 gold coins, and children under 16 years old are 30 gold coins. I don’t know if you are satisfied with this price. Henry Point He nodded and said: “I’m basically satisfied with the price, so let’s start checking and trading with each other tomorrow. “Bruce said happily: “It’s a pleasure to talk to you about business, then we’ll see you tomorrow.” “After that, he took the guard and left the hotel.
