Chapter 28: Smuggler

"Well?" Locke frowned and looked closely. The squatting faces were covered with black spots on the surface of the plaster. The yellow hair should not have been cleaned for a few days. He was wearing shabby gray cloth clothes and a unkempt look. Indeed I can't see a woman.
Gulas smiled flatteringly, "This is a gang of two traffickers. When I broke the city, I saw these people sneaky and took the brethren to take them. I didn't expect to be a big fish, promise, those boxes. It’s all their goods, and there are a lot of good things!" After all, Gulas kicked open the wooden box, which revealed shiny jewelry and gold and silver coins.
Only then did Locke understand that the unwritten rule that a large number of private goods was obtained by the brothers below was to turn in 50%, 20% to the camp, and 30% to the squadron leader, and the rest was to split themselves. The reason for this rule is that because of the large number of seizures, the soldiers have no way to disengage. Even if there is a channel, secretly occupying such a large wealth will cause a crack between the soldier and the chief.
However, Locke had rarely heard of underground soldiers robbing bulk cargo before. Those merchants and rich households had the ability to run before the arrival of the army. The incapacitated ones would also be targeted by the baron’s cavalry squadron. The baron indulged the soldiers. We made money ourselves, but we did not condone the soldiers to make money in their purses. If there are soldiers fighting for money in the camp, this soldier will definitely not see the sun the next day.
"Yes." Locke praised, Locke had never made such a fortune before.
"Hey." Gulas didn't speak, just smirked.
Locke looked at this guy with a big face and a big physique, and he couldn't really see how thin his heart was. It was really unattractive. "You handed over the logistics for the part you handed over, and you replaced me with Dele for my part. As for these goods, you handed over half of the caravan to the baron and half to a businessman named Henry in the camp. "Locke was not a wordless person, he planned to pay the fat businessman, but he did not dare to give him the seizure of the soldiers, who knows whether the baron would wear small shoes for the profit of the caravan, safe That's right.
Since Gulas said that this is a second-party gang, then there must be a leader. "Who is the leader?" Lock asked.
The few people squatting on the ground clearly felt that the person in question was the head of the soldiers. Although they didn't speak, they all looked at a thin rod man among them.
"It's you?" Locke looked at this unremarkable man with a long pair of ribs. If it weren't for the slightly sly look, it might really have ignored this person. But looking at his trembling look at this time, there is no ambition of the leader of the second trader.
"Yes, adult, the villain's name is Bick." Although the timid man was timid, he was clever. "The villain is a well-known businessman in Frans. If you are an adult, you can let the villain make a living. The villain can bring you great wealth."
"Oh, a second trader, smuggler, and dare to call himself a businessman." Gulas next to him smiled disdainfully.
Locke was interested in him, not his talents, but his wealth. Suddenly, Locke thought, like these two traders are not alone in doing business, they should be a group of people, this group of people is sweeping the goods, then there must be someone who receives the goods, if you follow the line and kill it in one pot, there should be Surprise.
The ribs man was anxious when he heard Gulas' words. He was particularly afraid that the soldiers thought he had no value to kill him. "The villain will still look at things. The villain has worked as a handyman in jewelry shops and shops since childhood. Practicing a pair of flaming eyes can help adults find the baby."
"Kebe, right, you can help me see this." Locke remembered the maid's bracelet she took last night and asked him to see if it was worth it.
Upon hearing that, Kirby rubbed his hands on the clothes, took the gold bracelet, observed it repeatedly under the light, and even flicked the bracelet with his fingers. It seemed a bit professional. However, he soon showed a trace of disdain, others did not see it, but Locke, who had been watching him, caught it.
"How?" Lock asked quietly.
"Adult, this...this..." Kirby stammered.
"Speak quickly if you have something," Locke urged.
"Adult, this bracelet is not a top grade in my opinion. Although the weight of the bracelet is not much different from that of a real gold bracelet, the bracelet is not as soft as gold. It should be doped with copper. The weight should not be too bad. Added some silver, as for the gold, it should be coated with a layer of gold powder, and there is no other doping, no tools, the villain can't see it at present." The ribs man Kerry said the words are said. "In short, this bracelet is worth five silver coins at most." Kirby also estimated the bracelet at the end.
If you convert five silver coins into Dele, you can also change one or two silver dele. If Locke still had a good eye before, now, it still counts.
Locke withdrew the bracelet. It seemed that he was in a bad mood at the moment, and he thought that those women had a big background. But this is only the maid's, almost excusable, Locke so comforted himself.
Gulas deserves to be a personal essence. Seeing that Locke is in a bad mood at this time, he quickly kicked Naqbe. "You don't have any good things to take out yet, show Brother Bro."
Kirby heard that the value of his gang may be in the hands of the officer. He was busy looking in the gang of boxes. Finally, a pair of exquisite earrings and a dark green bracelet were selected. "Adult, this is the best thing in the villain. It is suspected that a noble woman is in the of the villain. The earrings are so big. The jewelry I have seen can be said that there are few more precious than her. This bracelet is made of Yunmo gemstones if the villain admits his mistakes. The Yunmo gemstones used for such a large bracelet are definitely not small. Yunmo gemstones used to be used to create high-end rings."
These earrings are indeed fine products. The diamonds on the light are very valuable. As for the bracelet, Locke didn't see any doorway. Since he said yes, it should be good. Locke didn't say much and put away two things.
It doesn’t make much sense to stay here anymore. When Locke left, he told Gulas, "Keep the boy a life, I am useful."
Locke turned around in the city, and it was still so chaotic. I am afraid that the situation will not be converged until the baron orders to stop disturbing the people.
Locke went to the original squad and looked at it. Hans was taking his brothers to copy things in a grocery store. Kane was sitting on the roof in a daze. This kind of guy Kane was like this. But Locke knew that the kindest thing in the team was him, and he basically did not participate in every such raid. Locke asked him once, and he said that when he saw those Charlotte civilians, he remembered the years when he had been a beggar. Everyone acquiesced in his behavior. Instead, he would count him for every gain.
At noon, the city’s main palace finally received the baron’s order, and the army stopped "searching" and stood by in the squad as a unit.
Xicheng District is the area where the Baron Kashir bombarded with magicians. It is already a rough place, but it also means that the area is clean and it is just for the soldiers to camp there.
Most of the soldiers did not sleep all night, plus the fierce fighting before, as soon as they were assembled, they turned to each other and found a place to sleep.
Locke also met the acquaintances of the Baron Kashgar forces here. Sean, also a civilian-born squad leader, had fought side by side with Locke and had a good relationship.
"Why, you guys are here too?" Locke greeted. This is a world of strict hierarchy. Locke's first words mean that he is willing to make this friend.
"Yeah, Brother Rock, you're promoted, and brother I am happy too. It happened that I got good wine last night. Go to me tonight, I'll be the owner." Sean was very happy to see Locke still feeling old. Although the two are not affiliated with the same army, it is reasonable to assume that their positions and ranks are higher than him. There is no harm in making friends with such people.
Those who have joined the army for more than a year know that the most reliable person on the battlefield is themselves, followed by comrades, which shows the importance of a friend.
"No problem." Locke patted Sean's shoulder and laughed. By convention, there should be no task from now to tomorrow afternoon. Locke’s injury yesterday did not affect his drinking even under the moisturization of grudge.
Mixing a face in the camp, Locke returned to his little yard, carrying a chicken in his hand. Hans sent it to him, and it was indeed an old brother.
Rafi, the maid in the yard, was sweeping the floor, but she was at a loss for some time. Christine sat on the door frame and fiddled with her fingers, and she seemed to be much better. Grace should be in the house. It seems that these women are not stupid and have not escaped. Locke dares to guarantee that they will not escape the city. It is simply impossible to do so with the maid's three-legged cat.
When Locke came back, the maid Rafi made a wary gesture. But Locke didn't make sense, and walked straight through, throwing the chicken in her hand to her, "Can you handle it?" Locke asked.
"Yes." Rafi replied dumbly.
"Brother!" Christine was very excited to see Locke back.
Locke rubbed Christine's little head. He also likes little girls. Normally, the noble soldiers who caught Shirlow would give it to the chief and receive the bounty, but Locke did not plan to do so. Although they haven't recognized their identity, Locke doesn't care, these women are his.
