Reborn as a Mad Dog from a Noble Family

Chapter 209: Xin's Chamber of Commerce is so wealthy

Drinking alcohol can easily lead to mistakes and may develop into a bad habit, so most military forces have a ban on alcohol.

As the titled Grand Lord, Master of the Knights of McIntosh, and Commander-in-Chief of the Rekton Kingdom Expeditionary Force, it is naturally impossible for Artborg to actively violate the ban.

So he picked up a new wine glass, slowly filled it with mellow wine, and handed it to Deputy Commander Barritt.

Barritt looked at the wine glass, then looked at the expressionless Artborg, swallowed his saliva, and reached out to take it.

The same thing happened last time at Yishengmen. He drank almost all the alcohol in the legion, and he almost couldn't walk upright the next day.

When I go to other places in the ancient Chinese nation, will there still be this tradition of toasting? How can this not be considered a military order? He thought in great pain.

The adults drank wine, and the children drank drinks made from fruits and herbs.

Arthurs held the same porcelain bowl as the Tang Sect kids and sipped the sweet soup.

Moshe brought a dark brown jar and sat down beside him.

The moment the lid of the wine jar was opened, a gentle aroma filled the air. As the wine jar was tilted, the milky white liquid poured into the bowl. Under the moonlight, it looked like a piece of fine white jade, showing a translucent to slightly transparent luster, soft and rich in layers.

The base of the bowl is so thick that you can't see the bottom of the bowl. Combined with the slowly floating rice grains, it looks like a texture carefully carved by a craftsman, adding a touch of artistic flavor.

"What is this? It smells so good!" Arthurs looked at the strange drink curiously, then put the empty bowl on the table, "I want to try it too."

Mo Xie met his sparkling eyes and picked up the wine jar again, "This is rice wine."

"Wine?" Arthurs' expression froze and he quickly covered the empty bowl with his hand.

"You are a child now, how can you drink alcohol!" He wanted to take the jar of wine away, but his hand waved in vain.

"Ordinary children really can't drink rice wine, it will have adverse effects on the brain, liver and kidneys." Mo Xie smiled and explained, "But I have witchcraft to protect my body, and the alcohol content of this jar of rice wine is very low, so it won't harm my body. In addition, the raw material of rice wine is glutinous rice, the brewing process is simple, and it has the effect of replenishing qi and blood, promoting blood circulation and removing cold."

Arthurs was skeptical, "...Really?"

Mo Xie responded with a firm look, "Really."

"It won't happen again." Arthurs turned his eyes away and chose to compromise.

Apart from me, there shouldn't be anyone else in the expeditionary corps who would pamper him like this, he thought.

What Arthur didn't know was that a disaster that was about to happen would completely change his mind.

Heavy fog often occurs in Shu during the autumn and winter, and this morning was no exception.

The sunlight penetrates the fog, turning the forest into a paradise on earth.

The expeditionary force bid farewell to the Tang Clan and set off for the next destination - the Xin's Chamber of Commerce, where its headquarters would be established in Linhai.

According to Tang Yili, the leader of the Tang Clan, the Xin's Chamber of Commerce was not originally included in the plan to eliminate the Sky Mark, and the one responsible for connecting with the expeditionary corps was another force, the "Nether Fire Tower".

Just one day before the expeditionary force arrived at the East Continent, the Xin Chamber of Commerce obtained the opportunity to meet the emperor by presenting treasures to the royal family, and expressed that it would use all financial, material and human resources to support and assist the two armies in clearing the Sky Mark.

After getting the emperor's approval, Xin's Chamber of Commerce gathered a large number of extraordinary people. They came from the common people, did not belong to any forces, and possessed powerful Qi and special skills.

The salary they earn for one month is more than the average vendor in the city earns in their entire lifetime.

However, this is just a drop in the bucket for the Xin Chamber of Commerce.

After all, the Xin's Chamber of Commerce is the most financially powerful and influential chamber of commerce in the Central Plains of the ancient Chinese nation, and what they are best at is doing business and making money.

"He set up his headquarters by the sea, probably to expand the market, right?"

"I don't think it's that simple."

"He is a businessman, could he have other intentions?"

"Oh, Clapham, it's a good opportunity for you to come. Could you lend me the latest information about the ancient Chinese nation? I have something I want to know."

Thinking, practice and analytical research are the three most common things scholars do during their boring journey.

This trip across the ocean to another continent broadened my horizons, increased my knowledge, and elevated my entire life.

They decided that after conquering the world's planes and returning to Renekton, they would write a biography together to commemorate this wonderful journey.

From Shu to Linhai, it is equivalent to crossing half of the ancient Chinese country, so it took two more days to arrive.

After entering the city, they followed the route marked on the map and walked on the empty streets.

"Is this an empty city?" Someone exclaimed.

Barritt looked around, shook his head and said, "No, there are people in the shops and houses."

There was a small hole in the tightly closed window, the door was half-open and shaking slightly, and countless pairs of eyes were hiding in the darkness, spying on these strangers.

It was the first time that Arthurs was stared at by so many people in the dark. He couldn't help feeling creepy and a chill on his back.

He bent down and took Moshe's hand calmly, which made Moshe look at him with doubt.

Suddenly, Artbolg stopped.

A young man wearing a dark blue narrow-sleeved robe and a leather belt around his waist, with a handsome face, saluted and said, "I am the person in charge of receiving you from the Xin's Chamber of Commerce. Please follow me."

Artbolg did not move, and said calmly: "Please explain what the situation is in this city."

The young man smiled and explained, "You can understand that the president has bought an hour of time for the people so that everyone can move freely in the city. There is nothing unusual in the city, you can rest assured."

Even the mature and steady Martyri couldn't help but look a little confused when he heard such words.

He relayed it word for word to everyone, and then, faces also filled with confusion appeared.

Buying time with money? The target is the entire city's citizens? Is this what happens in reality?

What shocked them even more was yet to come.

Rambutan made them eat bread while standing, Qi Ding wanted to squeeze them into concentrated magic, Yisheng Sect made them sleep on the ground between the snowy mountains, Tang Sect made them camp in the bamboo forest, and Xin's Chamber of Commerce...

The Xin Chamber of Commerce let them all live in a luxurious restaurant!

Well...it must be written in the biography how wealthy the Xin family of the ancient Chinese nation was.

The scholars stared at the magnificent building in a daze and thought so.

The young man asked with a smile: "How many people are there in your army?"

"Two thousand," replied Martyri.

"Okay, this way please." The young man turned around and led the way.

If a restaurant is compared to a vegetable, then the Xin's Chamber of Commerce is a huge vegetable garden. Everywhere you look, you can see "vegetables" neatly arranged and growing well.

At this point, the members of the expeditionary corps finally understood the people of the city.

There is no way, he gave too much.

Under the arrangement of the young man, all members of the expeditionary corps moved in in an orderly manner.

Of course, before dispersing, Barritt specifically reminded them to always pay attention to the messages from communication tools, pay attention to the surrounding situation, and gather and disperse quickly.

Next it’s time to select people.

The young man said that their leader liked quietness, meaning that Artborg should bring fewer people.

Art Bolger's eyes swept through the crowd and finally fell on the only small figure.

A well-behaved, sensible boy who doesn't run around, a gentle and harmless little boy who can fight, translate, and lower the guard of the president of the Xin Chamber of Commerce, he is definitely the best candidate.

[Father actually chose you!]

Arthurs was extremely shocked.

[If you know Chinese, this opportunity is yours.]

Moshe glanced at him and walked over to Artborg.

Strangely enough, he could now understand Art Bolger's meaning through his eyes and micro-expressions.

[Then I'd rather not.]

Arthurs took a deep breath and looked determined.

[While we are on our way to meet Xin, please pay more attention to the surrounding situation.]

After saying that, Moshe followed Artborg into the depths of the Chamber of Commerce.

[good. ]

Gradually, the word "why" disappeared from Arthurs' answer template.

Moshe is someone he can totally trust.

There must be a reason behind what Mo Xie said and did.

This blood bond ultimately linked them closely together.
