Chapter 275: Big business in Maple City (2 in 1)

In winter, the wind is bitter.
As the most prosperous city in the southwest of the Holy Manian Empire, Maple Leaf City is as lively as ever.
A carriage full of goods hurriedly drove on the main marble-paved street; street vendors selling hot drinks and cooked food greeted the passing pedestrians enthusiastically; Order; distant bells came from the church in the central square, echoes...
Suddenly, there was a slight commotion at the city gate, but it was quickly calmed down by the guards.
Only heard the ground begin to rumbling, along with the dust, a line of convoys decorated with strange snake-shaped signs slowly entered from the tall city gate...
The citizens who came and went in the city just looked at them curiously, and stopped paying attention, but continued to do their own things.
There have been many more teams in the city recently.
"Another caravan is here."
"Looking at the style, it looks like the kingdom of Ayers, is it coming from so far away?"
"Should it also come for the Lord Lord's auction?"
"It should be. It is said that Lord Lord pulled out a stronghold of Oak Hand this time and caught many elves!"
"More than elves, I heard that there are also humans, all of whom are assigned as slaves."
"Shhh... keep it quiet."
The citizens were whispering.
The caravans entering the city are naturally the players.
At this moment, the players looked at the bustling and bustling city in front of them, and they were all excited.
"Maple Leaf City, this is Maple Leaf City!"
Xiao Xian Miao looked at the pedestrians coming and going in the city, her eyes gleaming.
Lots of people! What a lively city!
This city is much more prosperous than Black Rock City in the underground world!
"This should be the former capital of the Elf King. Looking at the buildings, there are still some Elf styles, and only the outer city wall seems to be built later."
The cuckoo bird also has bright eyes.
But... her focus is more on the urban construction itself.
And Li Mu looked at the pedestrians around him, watched them bargaining with vendors, watched their interaction with each other, and finally couldn't help but marvel:
"Hey... it's one time to enter Black Rock City, one time to enter Ximu Town, and another time to come here... Such a lively and bustling main city, such a vivid NPC, is really unimaginable. This is just a game. ..."
"Cut, Brother Mu, you talk too much like this! Isn't it lifelike and vivid, is it still "Elf Kingdom"? Black technology is not just for fun, don't worry about it! Explore new maps, find hidden plots, and earn money by the way Making money is the most important thing!"
On the other side, Demacia rubbed her hands expectantly.
Just when the players were excited, Anders, who came back with them, jumped from another carriage and walked towards them.
"Mr. Li Mu, Miss Xiao Xian Miao."
The old housekeeper bowed slightly to Li Mu and Xiao Xianmiao:
"This is Maple Leaf City. I still have an urgent matter, so I won't accompany you around the city."
"But... I know that most of you are here for elven slaves. I can introduce the most famous slave chamber of Maple Leaf City to you."
"If you have any needs, please feel free to mention it with the Slave Chamber of Commerce. With my introduction, they will definitely entertain you and cooperate with you in business."
"As the steward of Lord Earl, I still have this channel."
Anders said proudly.
After listening to him, the players' eyes lit up.
Slave Chamber of Commerce!
This is exactly what they need now!
After knowing that Maple Leaf City will have an auction and there are still elves in the auctioned goods, the players will know...this matter, they must intervene!
Save the elf?
No one believes that this is not a hidden plot!
"Thank you, Mr. Anders."
Li Mu smiled and saluted the old housekeeper.
Anders was also satisfied with Li Mu's polite attitude.
Vaguely, he straightened his waist even more.
Then, he took it out of his arms, took out a pen that he carried, and asked the guards to find a piece of paper, write something on it, and then hand it to Li Mu:
"Mr. Li Mu, this is the address of the most famous slave chamber of commerce in Maple Leaf City. Give me my name and they will treat you all."
"There are still three days before the silver moon day, and the annual auction is also held at that time. With the introduction of the Slave Chamber of Commerce, you can also attend as VIPs."
"So... I wish you all a pleasant time in Maple Leaf City."
After speaking, Anders greeted the players and left in a hurry.
After the old butler left, the players looked at each other, and they had the urge to explore Maple Leaf City...
However, at this moment, the thin guard who came with them suddenly walked up and stopped talking.
"Anything to say? Mr. Tom."
Li Mu moved slightly in his heart, and asked calmly.
After this time of getting along, players already know that this guard is named Tom.
However, because he is a civilian, he only has a first name and no surname.
"Master Li Mu."
Tom hesitated, and finally gritted his teeth and said:
"If... you believe me, don't go to the chamber of commerce address that Master Anders left for you."
"Huh? Why?"
The players are very curious.
Tom took a deep breath and said:
"You belong to the Kingdom of Ayres. I don't know something about our Maple Leaf Collar. Master Anders is the steward of Lord Earl in charge of slave affairs. He has close contacts with many chambers of commerce in Maple Leaf City, especially the slave chamber of commerce..."
"Anders is a very greedy guy. He often leads some caravans that have just entered Maple Leaf City to those chambers of commerce that have his shares."
"We all know that if he takes the people personally, it means that he really wants to cooperate, but if he only gives a letter of introduction, then it will be cheating..."
"He introduced the Slave Chamber of Commerce to you, but he didn't lead you personally. It was definitely not kind..."
"Those slave chambers of commerce have a very deep background. For caravans with no foundations from other places like you, even if there are nobles behind them, I am afraid they will suffer from them..."
"I'm afraid... he must treat you as fat sheep and want to kill you."
The thin guard said all he wanted to say.
"Why are you telling us this?"
After hearing what he said, Xiao Xianmiao asked in surprise.
Tom hesitated and continued:
"I know... you are definitely not as simple as a caravan. You must also be aristocrats in the south, but... you are good aristocrats, so I don't want to see you suffer from him."
"Masters, if you believe me, just go around Maple Leaf City and wait for the auction. During the auction, there will naturally be many chambers of commerce participating, and there will also be caravans on site for commercial cooperation."
"If you really want to buy and sell, then trading will be more at ease..."
"How do you know so much?!"
Demacia looked surprised when he looked at the thin guard who said a series of words.
But there was a trace of nostalgia on Tom's face:
"Once... I was also a city guard of Maple Leaf City until I got an arrow in my knee..."
Demacia:...
Fried tomatoes with tomatoes:...
Li Mu:...
After saying what he wanted to say, the skinny guard bowed to the players:
"My sirs, that's all I want to say. Believe it or not is your business. Now that you have arrived at Maple Leaf City, I will not continue to follow you."
After speaking, he also left in a hurry.
"Why did he run away? If we don't believe him, would we still eat him?"
Seeing the back of the thin guard leaving, Xiao Xianmiao frowned slightly.
"We won't, but Anders doesn't have to. He's probably trying to hide Anders."
Cuckoo said.
Xiao Xian Miao suddenly.
And after the two humans left, a group of players stared at the square of Maple Leaf City.
And as they stopped, many people who watched the excitement were gradually attracted.
You know, more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages and a small two hundred people, the goal is still very big.
"What should I do next? Explore separately or act together? Do I need to go to that chamber of commerce?"
Some players asked.
Li Mu glanced at the note that Anders gave and smiled softly:
"why do not you go?"
After speaking, he cut a picture and sent it to the group:
"Look at the name of this chamber of commerce."
Fried tomatoes with tomatoes took a look at the chat group and looked surprised:
"Sauron Chamber of Commerce?"
"I'm going! Isn't this the chamber where the box lunch boss hooked up to Miss Nightingale?!"
Demacia exclaimed.
Then, he was kicked unceremoniously by the box lunch.
"It's the Sauron Chamber of Commerce!"
Li Mu's eyes lit up slightly:
"The Sauron Chamber of Commerce...This is an officially certified hostile force in the "Elf Country", and according to Alice, it is also the main human chamber of commerce selling elves!"
"Now that I know, why not go?"
With that said, he suggested:
"However, we have too many people. I propose that our three major guilds act separately and choose by themselves."
"Some people go to the Sauron Chamber of Commerce to inquire about the news, some people go to the locals to inquire about the ruins and other news, and some people try to contact the underground forces to see if they can inquire about the oak hand mentioned by the NPC..."
"Of course, the latter two can be done together, mainly the first one. I don't think too many people are needed to go to the chamber of commerce."
"Then our Mengmeng Committee will inquire about the ruins. Sister Gugu and I are still very curious about the ruins."
Xiao Xianmiao said.
"Our First Legion went to find underground forces."
Said Tomato Fried Tomato.
"Go and fight with the underground forces?"
Demacia grinned, let out a sneer, and then greeted a roll of tomato-fried tomatoes.
However, he didn't care either, but rubbed his hands expectantly:
"So... Brother Mu, we went to the Sauron Chamber of Commerce, right?"
"That's great! I'm thinking about going to the Slave Chamber of Commerce to do some business! I have discussed with a few buddies."
After that, he hooked up his shoulders with a few other players, and laughed happily, how ridiculous it would be.
"What are you doing? Suicide again?"
Li Mu's eyelids twitched.
"Ahem... I hit the Sauron Chamber of Commerce, then... Am I okay with what I want?"
Demacia's eyes rolled randomly.
Li Mu:...
"By the way, Miao Da, did you bring the Lionheart Sword? Let me use it! Return you back!"
After speaking, Demacia looked at Xiao Xian Miao again.
"What are you doing?"
Xiao Xianmiao subconsciously took two steps back.
"Cough cough cough... isn't this... you want to do some business?"
Demacia said quietly.
Xiao Xian Miao:...
Her eyes flashed slightly, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
She turned around, suddenly took out a long sword wrapped in cloth from the carriage, and handed it to Demacia without hesitation:
"Here, here you are, you don't have to pay rent anymore. You will get 37 cents at that time, and you will be three to seven."
Demacia:...
"Is this too dark?"
He wailed.
"My capital."
Xiao Xianmiao is indifferent and authentic.
Demacia:...
"In addition, I temporarily unbind it and let you bind it for a few days. You can lose it in this way, or if you dare to hack the equipment, just wait to be chased by my people."
Demacia:...
...
West of Maple Leaf City.
As the business district of the entire city, it is also close to the slums, and it is also full of various struggles and chaos.
The black market and underground organizations are endlessly emerging here. Of course, major commercial organizations also have their own locations here.
So is the Sauron Chamber of Commerce.
As the largest smuggling chamber on the mainland, it also has a stronghold in Maple Leaf City.
In the magnificent chamber of commerce, a middle-aged man wearing a wig and a button-up long dress, dressed as an imperial nobleman, sat in the chamber of commerce with a gloomy face.
The middle-aged man is named Cage Sauron, the president of the Maple City Branch of the Sauron Chamber of Commerce.
At this moment, Mr. Cage was not in a good mood.
"Are those elves still refusing to eat?"
He asked gloomily while tapping on the glass carvings imported from the south on the table.
"Yes, Master Cage, those elves are not willing to eat anyway..."
On the other side, a fat man dressed as a housekeeper said while wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"These stubborn long ears! Do you want to die like that?"
Cage grabbed the engraving on the table and threw it to the ground, smashing it to pieces.
The butler was taken aback, he hesitated, and said:
"Or...or just use magic for mind control? Master Cage, these elves are diehards of the Oak Hand. I'm afraid... they would rather die than follow. In the end... It can be used."
"mind control?"
Cage frowned.
"But if you use mind control, it will hurt your soul. They are elves, and they are magic creatures. Under resistance, their souls will be damaged and their minds will be lost... and the elves who have lost their minds will not sell for a good price. ."
"But... you also know that we bought these elves at a low price from Lord Earl~EbookFREE.me~ and Lord Earl can sell to us at a low price, naturally because the elves in the hand of oak are hard bones. ..."
The old butler said with a dilemma.
Cage's brows frowned and tightened.
At this moment, suddenly, the people in the office were lightly knocked.
"what's up?"
Cage raised his head, annoyed by the sudden interruption of his thoughts.
At this time, the respectful voice of the waiter came from outside the door:
"Master Cage, some young Southern aristocrats have come from outside the Chamber of Commerce. They claim to be introduced by Lord Anders and say that there is a big deal to do with our Chamber of Commerce."
"Anders introduced it? Big deal?"
Cage narrowed his eyes slightly.
