"This is Wind City..."
The big businessman of the Kingdom of Kurt hurried to the Wind City with his caravan, looking at the solemn walls in front of him, and couldn't help but swallow.
Although there is a large river separating the border between the Black Forest and the Kurt Kingdom, and this businessman also lives in the interior of the Kurt Kingdom, it is not clear how the situation is in the Black Forest.
However, on the way he led the caravan to the tragic wind, when he passed the northern part of the kingdom, he also heard the horror of the Black Forest. I heard that if the river thaws in summer, the big river cannot be approached, because The fish in the river is so fierce that even an adult standing on the shore may be dragged into the water if he is not careful.
The edge of the Black Forest is so terrible, at least for the businessman, it is terrible, so he simply can't imagine how terrible the tragic leader of the border bordering the Black Forest is.
Looking at the things in the sad wind collar with this mentality, the businessman always feels that everything here is built around dealing with the monsters in the Black Forest.
The endless stream of teams in front of the gate made the businessman feel a shock.
He saw a lot of adventurers carrying weapons or armor in and out of the city gate. The city guards stood on both sides of the city gate. There was no need to pay the "entrance fee" when entering the city. The open city gate entered and exit at will. Such a grand scene You can't see it anywhere.
The city guards are also different from the "procrastinating" and "greedy" guys in the businessman's impression. They stand on both sides of the city gate just to maintain the order in front of the city gate.
They don’t ask for tips for people passing by. They don’t check things too carefully. Only trucks like caravans will check them carefully, but they don’t accept any tips after the inspection, even merchants. I also saw a city guard who justly refused a'tip' for a caravan manager...
Everything here is so novel and completely different from those people or things in the merchant's memory!
These things seemed to subvert his cognition at once. He could not imagine that there was such a "ordered" city in the world, because in other towns led by the tragic wind, he had also handed "tips" to the city guards. They did not refuse, but in Wind City, all this changed.
Although the big businessman was surprised, the caravan under his hands was not surprised.
This big businessman is visiting Wind City for the first time, but they are not, because the distance is not far, and the business here is also very prosperous, so many people in this caravan are not the first time to Wind City, a few months ago They have already seen these scenes, and they will not be surprised at all.
On the contrary, after they returned to the Kingdom of Kurt, they often complained about the work efficiency of the nobles. Even if it was not in Wind City, the work efficiency of the entire tragic leader is not low, and the things that can be handled in a day will never be delayed to the first place. Two days, unless things are too much.
Even if the affairs that need to be handled are delayed, the service attitude of the other party is also very good. There is no arrogance. It is better than officials in other countries.
"The Kingdom of Kurt?"
Walking on the right side of the road, because the guards of the city processed quickly, it was quickly the caravan of the big merchants.
The city guards in charge of the inspection glanced at their convoy, and ‘actually’ asked,
What is your cargo? Are there any taboos?
When he heard this, the big businessman's eyes widened.
What did he hear just now? He heard it right?
This city guard... this city guard would even ask them ‘what’s taboo’? !
City Guards did not expect that just this ordinary sentence actually made the businessman in front of him panic.
The big businessman took a deep breath. He remembered what happened to him when he was still a caravanserai. At that time, his caravan delivered "wine". The wine that was originally worth dozens of gold coins changed because of a group of rude city guards. A bunch of "waste" that can only be "sold" at the end.
So just a word from this city guard, he had some inexplicable affection for Wind City.
"The goods list is here, and the quality certificate is here."
However, what he didn't expect was that the caravan's manager turned over the'cargo list' to the city guard without obtaining his consent!
The big businessman frowned and shouted, "John!"
The manager was taken aback and looked back at the big businessman, a little confused in his eyes, "Master Nelson, what's wrong?"
"How can you give the list of goods to others?"
Nelson spoke out this sentence, but then he discovered that in addition to'John', there were many people who looked at him, his eyes full of daze-even the city guard in this way.
"This gentleman!"
Sitting under the city gate, the secretary who recorded the entry and exit records saw the noise, and came over and explained to Nelson: "In the mournful wind, if you want to enter the town, the goods list is not necessary, But a "quality certificate" is necessary. If there is no list of goods to confirm the goods on the quality certificate, we also need to carefully check the goods in your caravan, undoubtedly, this will take a lot of time. If you If your caravan is coming from a border town, there will be someone to inspect the goods in your caravan and will issue a temporary quality certificate to ensure that there are no dangerous goods in your cargo."
"This gentleman submits the goods list just to facilitate our inspection. We only need to compare the "quality certificate" and the "goods list" and perform another rough inspection, we can release it. This is a good efficiency inspection method. Now, it is only piloted in Wind City, and it may be extended to other towns in the future. If you do not want to submit the goods list, we will be more careful when checking, not only delaying your time, but also delaying the people behind you. Time, so I hope you can cooperate with our work."
Nelson opened his mouth and didn't expect it to be so.
But he only froze for a while, and then quickly reacted.
"So that's what happened..."
It was not without reason for Nelson to become a big businessman, especially when he realized that Wind City was not only the main city of the sorrowful wind but also the holy city of Lady Fortune, he completely extinguished his anger.
"John, I blamed you wrong."
Nelson first nodded to the caravan manager, and after seeing John's worried expression, he gave up and said to the city guards: "Please, I've been delayed a lot of time before. I'm really sorry. "
Although he said so and pretended to be similar, Nelson was not embarrassed.
‘Apologize’ is only for the city guards in front of me. As for the people behind the team, what do they do with him!
After some inspection, the city guards let go, they pulled up the railing placed on the right side of the city gate, "Sir, your caravan can already go in ~EbookFREE.me~ The caravan of the caravan is slowly driving When they entered the city gate of Wind City, what they did not find was that there was a glimmer of light on the top of the city gate and the floor tiles under their feet.
When the railing was lowered again, the two places flashed again. The secretary explained to Nelson sat on the chair, glanced at the mirror on the table in front of him, and lowered it again. head.
"next!"
The gate was still noisy, but the secretary's faint voice still reached people's ears.
In this regard, they have been surprised. After some time of adjustment, they feel a little uncomfortable with the "inconvenience" of other towns.
After all, it is easy to go from extravagance to extravagance, and from extravagance to extravagance is difficult.
Perhaps because the original ‘miracle’ was already amazing enough, people didn’t realize that they were witnessing the birth of a miracle—
Or... they are part of a miracle.
