The sound of leather boots went from far to near, and the burly patrol stepped back into the hotel lobby and saw that Joan was paying to open the room, and the gloomy face eased down.
"Good evening, Mr. Restrad." The hotel man on duty at night shifted his smile to the patrol officer with a smile on his face.
The patrol nodded as a hello and turned to look closely at Joan, seeming to have some bad associations with his blindfold.
Joan was uncomfortably stared by the policeman's sharp eyes and couldn't help raising his hand to touch the blindfold.
"Sir, please let me take the liberty to ask, did you just get off the boat?"
"No, Mr. Patrol, I'm from Delin Town." Joan pulled the cloak abruptly. "I'm a freshman in Leiden College's arcane major and I came to the school to report."
The patrol officer smiled relaxedly, took off a small iron pot-like dome police cap and bowed slightly to Joan.
"Sorry, I have disturbed you, Mr. Master. I wish you a good dream tonight!"
"Uh... I also wish you a good dream, respectable Mr. Patrol."
"Ah, I don't have that kind of blessing. I have to work the night shift tonight."
The patrolman complained and walked out of the hotel. Joan looked at his back and relieved himself secretly.
The hotel rooms of three Kinduga in a night are actually not too luxurious. The only thing that makes Joan satisfied is the provision of hot water around the clock, allowing him to take a comfortable hot bath before going to bed, washing away all the dust and fatigue.
Joan was more and more worried when he lay in bed. From this expensive accommodation fee, we can see the madness of the price of Leiden Port. I am going to live in such a high-consumption city for at least one year. How can I just rely on the money I carry? It seems that I still have to find a job after school to make money to subsidize living expenses.
Joan fell asleep with worries and woke up at six o'clock the next morning. The clothes were all put on, and I suddenly remembered that the check-out deadline was nine o'clock in the morning. I thought that I had paid three gold coins. I only slept for five hours in total. The more I tried, the more wronged I was. The bedding, decided to make an extra sleep for an hour. Even if you can’t sleep, you need to occupy the bed, as if you can make that expensive accommodation more cost-effective.
Joan rubbed the bed for five minutes in an anxious manner, and had to admit that his mentality was ridiculous. He could not sleep but wasted precious time in vain. He had to get up again and get dressed, preparing for the spell. After washing, walk into the hotel lobby, ask the staff to check out and ask where you can get a cheap breakfast. When he learned that the accommodation fee included a breakfast, he couldn't help but be surprised. He poured a large cup of hot milk in the hotel restaurant, ate two sandwiches with fried eggs, burped, and touched his belly with a round belly. Walked out of the hotel door.
Walking on the city streets bathing in the morning light, Joan thought that today is the last day of March, and tomorrow is the official start of school. It is too early to go to school. It is better to take a moment to find out where to work.
Thinking so, Joan walked slowly along the street, paying attention to the street shops. Turning around the corner, the golden signboard of a leather goods shop broke into his vision. As soon as Joan's eyes lit up, he pushed open the shop door and walked in, thinking about looking for the owner to talk about the business of co-processing enchanted leather goods.
Perhaps it was because it was too early, there were no other customers in the shop, and two young shop assistants were cleaning. Hearing the opening of the door, they all turned around and smiled and said "Welcome" routinely. When they noticed that a young man wearing rustic clothes and oblique blindfolds came in, his face changed inconsistently, and he seemed interested.
Although it has been seen that Joan is not the kind of person who can afford high-end leather goods, the two shop assistants keep smiling and greet each other.
Qiao An thought that after all, the city is different from the countryside, and the guys in the shops are also very polite, and they speak nicely, and will not judge people by their appearance. However, he soon discovered that he was too happy. When he indicated that he was not here to shop, but wanted to find a job to provide an enchantment service for the leather goods store-just like he was in Delin and Longfellow. When the husband cooperated, the smiles on the faces of the two shop assistants suddenly disappeared. Before he finished talking, one of the shop assistants opened the door, and the other shop assistant "invited" him out in a semi-forced way. , Then slammed the shop door.
Joan rubbed his nose, which was almost broken by the door of the store, and was very angry. He resisted the impulse to scold the two shop assistants and looked down on them, and turned to leave.
Joan tried his best to calm down his anger, and persuaded him to open up. Leiden Port is not a small place like Delin Town. It is normal that the earthy buns from the countryside like themselves cannot attract the attention of high-end leather goods stores. People, just change one place.
It’s a pity that things are not as simple as he thought, and I don’t know what bad luck he took. Joan walked on the street all morning and walked into no less than ten shops. At first, the shop assistants greeted each other with a smile, but as long as he offered to work Intent, the other party immediately changed his complexion, and every time he was too lazy to say something, he sent him out. Occasionally, he met a polite person and asked him if he held a license to practice in the industry. Joan didn't understand any "licensing license" at all, so he had to leave in vain.
In this way, Joan Fei was not able to find a job, but was upset. When passing by the central square of the business district, he sat by the fountain of the square fountain and took a breath. He untied his backpack and took out the dry food brought from his home to bite. A group of pigeons walked around the fountain in the square. I don’t know if it was domestic or wild. I wasn’t afraid of anyone at all. When I saw Joan nibbling on dry bread, he came to eat bread crumbs at an elegant pace.
Joan looked at the pigeons, and there was a trace of sadness in his heart. He felt that he was not as good as the pigeons in this unfamiliar city.
Joan crumpled the remaining rusks and attracted more pigeons to peck. After sitting idle for a while, I felt like I could not spend time just like this, and got up and left the square. The pigeon group followed him for a while, convinced that he would not feed again, and flew away one after another.
Joan went around the fountain square and accidentally saw a familiar sign flashing across the street. Turn around and take a closer look. The signboard reads "Yangbo Business Office" and there is a small line next to it, which reads "Far East Yangbo Chamber of Commerce Office in Leiden Port and General Commercial Agent."
"Yangbo Business Office" is a semicolon opened by the "Far East Yangbo Business Association" in Leiden Port.
Qiao An heard from my grandfather that Baiou Port, where the headquarters of the Yangbo Chamber of Commerce is located, is the most important trading city in the Far Northeast Gulf region of the old continent. The current chairman of the Yangbo Chamber of Commerce, Ms. Liu Bofu Yangbo, is also the lord of Baiou Port. I can imagine how strong this multinational chamber of commerce is.
