The tall, thin soldier withdrew his gaze from the carriage entering the city, and walked towards the rest of the carriage behind, preparing to continue the inspection.
After a few steps, he stopped suddenly, turned his head suddenly, looked at the gray man’s carriage before, and looked at the deep rut that the carriage ran out, and suspiciously said to himself: "
If only cloth and cotton are transported, why is the carriage so heavy? Moreover, the two grooms looked very spirited, but the craftsmanship was a little too bad. They started too hard, bleeding the horses. The clothes she wore and the riding whip are all new. A car is obviously enough for a horseman, but it uses two. This is too rich to show...stop! "
"Stop!" The tall, thin soldiers wanted to understand what they were, screamed quickly, and greeted their companions at the gate, "Stop them!"
The companion listened, his expression sullen, without hesitation, "brushing", withdrawing his weapon, stopped in front of the carriage that was about to reach the gate.
The two riders in the carriage pulled the reins of the horse suddenly to stop the horse, frowning at the principal man in gray clothes.
The expression of the gray man's principal man changed slightly, and then he quickly jumped off the carriage and piled a smile on the tall and thin soldier.
"What's wrong with this lord, this lord? Why did we suddenly stop us? Is there something wrong with us?"
Tall and thin soldiers alertly stopped the principal man a mile away and questioned unkindly: "I think there is something wrong with your carriage."
"Carriage? What happened to the carriage?" the principal man said blankly. "Our carriage is the same as others."
"It looks exactly the same outside, but why can it be so rutted with only cloth and cotton?" The tall, thin soldier said with a pit in the side next to him.
"This..." The principal man scratched his head, "This may be that we have too much cargo loaded, sir, as you saw just now, the boxes in the carriage are stacked one by one. Although the boxes are light, they are very heavy. ."
"Then what's the matter with your driver?" The tall, thin soldier continued to ask.
"Master, what's the matter with the groom?"
"The clothes are new and the whip is new. I won't say it, but why does the driving technique look new? And, it's too extravagant to use two grooms in a car?"
"This--" The muscles on the principal man's face twisted and said bitterly, "Master, listen to me, in fact, only one of these grooms is mine, and the other one is for my friends in the city. , Technology is really not good, because they are novices, former farmers in the village."
"Then do you still hire?"
"Because they are cheap," the principal man said helplessly, "they are not good at technology, but the salary is only one-third of the normal horseman's salary, so I can't bear it. As for their clothes and whip, they are indeed new. I’m not thinking that they can bear my love, do it well and don’t run. After all, such a cheap horseman is really hard to find.
The tall and thin soldier listened to the principal man's words, did not dispel doubts, frowned and thought about it, waved his hand to the companion who stopped the carriage, and said, "Go on and check again to see if there are any strange things."
"Okay." The companion nodded, and the two soldiers jumped into the carriage and drove them off, starting the second inspection.
The principal man looked at it, and his expression was a little anxious, but he didn't dare to say anything, just waited patiently for the inspection to finish.
Three full minutes later, the two soldiers who entered the carriage compartment jumped down and shook their heads at the tall, thin soldiers: "Captain Falls, there is nothing strange. The carriages are indeed cloth and cotton."
The principal man looked at the tall, thin man named Falls, and said: "Look, my lord, my carriage is really normal. Just let me go into the city. I'm really anxious to deliver the goods."
Fowles frowned deeply and said nothing, always feeling that something was missing.
The principal man looked at Fowles, hesitated for a moment, and then approached quietly the next moment, and then took out a small purse and handed it to Fowles: "This lord, this is what I mean, you see See if it’s okay?"
Fowles didn't take it, took a step back, left the principal man's hand holding the purse in the air, and looked at the principal man seriously: "Are you rich?"
"No, no, it's all small money."
"I ask you, if you didn't deliver on time this time, how much would you lose?"
"Ten..." The principal man swallowed, not knowing what Falls meant, "Fifteen silver coins."
"Then the amount of money you handed to me now?"
"This..." The principal man's expression stiffened.
"Without waiting for the principal man to answer, Fowles grabbed it, opened it, looked at it, and sneered: "Ten silver coins. "
"Something interesting!" Fowles said, "You're so generous! Instead of paying fifteen silver coins, you would rather pay ten silver coins. Indeed, fifteen silver coins are more than ten silver coins, but those fifteen silver coins are not You must pay. Now if I still believe that your carriage is okay, put your carriage into the city, then I am a pig."
"I am..." The principal man stood there without knowing what to say, and a drop of sweat came out of his head~EbookFREE.me~Fowles no longer ignored the principal man, holding one hand to his waist Looked at the companion who stopped the car and thought for a while: "Pete and Relph, you two drilled under the carriage to look at it. I suspect they have something entrained, not silver wood. It is the refined ironware of the finished product."
Both of these things are expensive and heavy, fully worthy of the word expensive, and the taxes collected are extremely high. It is one of the tax evasion entrainment that is often found.
"Okay, Captain." The two soldiers named did not hesitate, nodded, and got under the carriage.
After a while, the brown-haired soldier named Pete got out first, his eyes wide, his eyes a little shocked, a little afraid, and a little excited.
"Pete, is there really something under the carriage?" Falls quickly asked, "What is it?"
"Yes..." Pete swallowed.
At this time, the red soldier named Relph drilled out, his body shivered, and he held a fine iron crossbow in his hand. The end of the arrow gleamed with black luster, and there were still faint lines in earnest, that is the magic lines.
"Captain, it's... a weapon." Relph shuddered. "There are a lot hidden under the carriage, some of them are specifically used to deal with wizards and magic rides.
"brush!"
Fowles reached out and quickly pulled out the long sword from his waist, pointing to the principal man next to him, making a fighting stance. Then his eyes widened, and he saw Relph and Pete who had just got out of the carriage, their heads burst open, and a large stream of blood spewed out, redening their vision.
Not far away, Richard, who was waiting to enter the city among the crowd, looked at this scene and raised his eyebrows, opening his mouth and spitting silently: "The wizard--"
