The correct way to open the elf

Chapter 407: Guide Johnny
"Hahaha, everyone come and look, there's a group of brocade weavers ready to take action!"

Another businessman was sitting on the side watching the excitement and shouted, "Men of the Brocade Empire, don't hesitate, take out your weapons and kill this drunkard!"

After the businessman finished speaking, the businessman who had laughed at them before did not get angry. Instead, he laughed even louder along with the businessman who had spoken.

Just when Philip felt something was wrong, a young man came out and said to Philip: "Sir, this is your first time here, I think you need a guide who knows this place very well.

Just one Cattail Silver Coin, or two Imperial Silver Coins per day.

However, it is limited to this port, and you will have to pay extra if you exceed the limit.”

Philip did not bargain and just threw two silver coins to the young man.

When the smiling merchants saw that Philip gave the young man two silver coins, they knew that there was nothing fun to see and left cursing.

The young man took the money with a smile, took a look at it and put it in his pocket, then said with a smile: "My name is Johnny, and I'm the guide here. The first thing I want to tell you is not to use force here, absolutely not!" Johnny emphasized.

Seeing Johnny speak so seriously, although Philip didn't know why, he also understood that he and others were almost tricked.

Before he could ask why, Johnny started walking away, asking them to follow him.

"You can set up camp here. These are all merchants from our Brocade Empire. Moran's guys are all in the south."

"What would have happened if we had used force here just now?"

Johnny said: “Not good, you will lose your trade qualification.

If you make too much trouble and disrupt the business in Cattail City, then it will be difficult to say for sure.

Some time ago, a big mercenary leader in Moran wanted to make trouble with Xiangpu City by relying on his large number of subordinates, but he was killed by Xiangpu City’s soldiers. All the mercenaries who dared to resist were killed, dozens of them. ”

The captain of the guard asked, "Moran doesn't care?"

"Don't even mention Moran. No one cares about our Brocade Empire.

This is the rule of Cattail City, no one dares to break it.

Both our Brocade Empire and Moran are still counting on things from Cattail City!
Only dozens of people died. The Moran Mercenary Group and the Royal Warriors of our Brocade Empire had previously attacked Cattail City, and more than ten thousand people died. How could they take Cattail City?
Didn't they just pay the ransom and redeem the captives? !
Do you see that big ship at the dock? If it starts moving, dozens of Moran mercenaries will be gone in a blink of an eye."

The captain of the guard obviously didn't believe it and asked, "Is it true?"

"I'll take you there and you'll understand."

Philip and the captain of the personal guard had traveled far and wide and had seen many big scenes, but when they saw the half-palm-thick steel plate on the side of the ship, they still felt that their brains were not enough.

A question kept echoing in their minds: How did this big lump of iron float on the water!

"I don't know about that, have you seen those black iron pipes?
The projectiles fired from there are a hundred times more powerful than the crossbow spikes fired from the most powerful ballista in our empire.

Even the shields of the Royal Shield Guards can be penetrated, let alone ordinary armor.

Even the dragons don't dare to mess with Pupu City, so our great magician has to be polite when he goes there.

Cattail City is not a place where we can cause trouble. If we want to do business with them, we must abide by their rules.

This is the truth of doing business with Cattail City, as summarized by the goblins."

The captain of the guards said in disbelief: "Wow, this Cattail City is really impressive, a bit like a city of miracles."

Johnny smiled and said, "This is just the beginning. Wait until you really see Cattail City and you will know what majesty is."

Philip said, "I heard that Xiangpu City blocked the Lengshui River. Why can't we see it?"

"You can see it if you go up about fifteen miles. You can't see it from here."

"have you seen?"

"Many merchants have visited it. That is the territory of our Brocade Empire. You can go and have a look if you want."

Philip said, "Forget it today. Let's set up camp today and go take a look together tomorrow."

The next day, when the mountains across the river and the huge gray fortress on the hillside next to the Snow-Top Mountain Range appeared in sight, Philip and his companions were stunned.

"My God, they actually moved the mountain into the river!" The captain of the guard was dumbfounded.

"What if our city... cough!" Philip looked at the magnificent fortress built on the hillside and couldn't help but think of the city he had set on fire with his own hands.

Johnny thought Philip was talking about the cities of the Brocade Empire, and said, "Yes, if all the Brocade Empire cities were fortress cities like this, we wouldn't have to be afraid of the Harpies!"

Johnny opened his backpack and carefully took out a long wooden box. He opened it and took out a metal cylinder and handed it to Philip.

"Be careful, this thing is expensive!"

The monocular, non-focusing telescope once again made Philip feel that what the Moran businessman said was right, and he was really a country bumpkin.

"Hey sweetie, how did you get it?"

“The people in Cattail City gave it to me. I helped them, so they gave me this thing.

This is also a product called a telescope, which can replace eagle eyes and allow us to see farther.

But the magic of this thing is that it does not require magic from a wizard or scrolls, and as long as it is not broken, it can be used forever."

When Johnny brought Philip back to the dock, they found that a new large ship had arrived at the dock and many people were gathered in front of the bulletin board of the wooden shed looking at something.

Johnny screamed, "Damn, there shouldn't be any ship coming today! Damn, I feel like I missed out on ten thousand silver coins!" As he said that, he quickly ran to the bulletin board.

The notice board is a wooden board with a roof. In addition to a trade terminal rule, there is also a big-character poster on it.

"This is weird. Didn't Cattail City always ask the goblins for help when recruiting workers in the past? Why is it posted here this time? Are they asking us to sell people?!"

The businessmen burst into laughter.

"Don't you see? We need a lot of people this time. How many can the goblin airship carry? We still have to use a big iron ship to pull them!"

"What does this Cattail City want to do? Why does it need so many people?"

"Who knows? But it's not bad over there. The workers who went there before made a lot of money. I heard that many of them settled in the Golden City that was occupied by Xiangpu City and never came back. They became people of Xiangpu City."

"That's right. Look at their recruitment, they even clearly stated that families are given priority. I really don't know what Cattail City wants those women for!"

"Anyway, I'm not going to be your wife. Those elves and mermaids are all so beautiful!"

Everyone laughed again.
