Chapter 319 Drink a glass of ale and make friends?

By the time my brother and Charlotte came back from Tiesong's blacksmith shop, it was already late at night.But at night in Junlin City, it is relatively lively. There are also some small stalls setting up night stalls beside some roads with street lights.

The street lamps in King's Landing City are the kind of oil lamps.Charlotte also saw workers who specialize in lighting street lamps and putting oil on them!

It's just that Charlotte found a bad phenomenon along the way: there are too many poor people.Whenever I walk through a street or an alley, I can always see ragged, yellow and emaciated people hiding in the corner.

There was both numbness and greed in the eyes of those people, like a dying wild dog, hiding in a corner all the time, wanting to tear a mouthful of bloody fresh meat.

Survival does not bring any happiness to them.Just live to live.

Counting these poor people in the city, plus those in the shantytowns outside who can't even enter the city, there are really a lot of poor people. According to my brother: "What is this? There are two big blocks in this city. The area is all very poor. Although they are in the city, they are not necessarily better off than those in the shantytowns outside the city. At most, they are protected by the city wall and can be safer."

The old man said: "Don't think that the city of King's Landing is much bigger than Helsing, but in fact, for these common people, I'm afraid life is not as good as the people of Helsing! Ever since the conquerors established King's Landing, this The rulers of this city have a very bad habit of always being too brutal! Whoever comes to power has never been kinder to the common people."

My brother said that in this city, many places that cannot be visited are those dirty and dangerous places.

"Mud Alley and Black Bone Street are famous and vicious places. Many outsiders just arrived in King's Landing City without knowing how deep they are, so they inadvertently broke into those places and finally disappeared..."

"In the slums of this city, there is a dish called brown soup. It has a strange color and looks like a sticky dish. No one knows whether it is made of rat meat or other meat..."

King's Landing City is much more dangerous than Helsing.In other words, the land of freedom is much more dangerous than the Norfolk area.

There is a saying: Poor people have bad intentions, but rich people have good conscience.The latter sentence is not necessarily accurate, but the first sentence is indeed very applicable in King's Landing City.

If a person is poor and crazy, he can really do anything.The elder brother specially reminded Charlotte that in this city, one must not take it lightly.

The next day, under the leadership of Tie Song, Charlotte and her elder brother found a seller with Longyan Steel.I heard that this person specializes in reselling Longyan Steel.There is nothing wrong with relying on mountains to eat mountains and relying on water to eat water. People count on special products to make a fortune!

It's a pity that the seller is also complaining: the Longyan steel in his hand has already been collected by the Iron Throne, and he dare not keep it at all.Even if there is a new source of supply, the Iron Throne must be given priority.

On the way back, Charlotte saw a scene that could not be commented on.

A man who looked like a little nobleman wandered the streets with a few vicious dogs holding hands by his subordinates.As a result, he threw a piece of raw meat and fed it to his pet dog.In the alley next to it, a tramp in ragged clothes suddenly jumped out. He rushed over and frantically fought for the piece of meat!

No matter how the vagabond dog bites him, or how the servants of the little nobleman beat him, he insists on swallowing that piece of meat alive!

In the end, the little noble was tired and left with his men and dogs.The homeless man covered in scars even laughed triumphantly at his companions in the alley, as if he had taken advantage of something...

Once this kind of injury worsens, according to his conditions, he will definitely die!But this tramp doesn't care about his own life for a piece of raw meat!He no longer has any nostalgia for being alive, right?

Tie Song glanced at it and said, "You can see this kind of scene almost every day as long as you are wandering in the street. There are even more terrifying scenes than this..."

Human nature has been reduced to this point, and it is no different from a beast.Not even a beast!The ants are still alive, but that person doesn't care about his own life at all...

Tie Song said that in this city, there are probably only two paths for the children of common people: one is lucky, they can find a shop or workshop, and after working as an apprentice for a few years, they may be able to find a way out, or learn a craft.

The second way is to join various strange organizations. At least [-]% of these people cannot survive the first three years...

This city, which thrives on the export of iron ore and weapons, is like a deformed monster lying on its side by the black water lake...

Tie Song returned to his blacksmith shop, Charlotte and his elder brother also rushed back to the residence of the Moxi Chamber of Commerce, and they made an appointment to contact other sellers tomorrow.

But outside the station, Charlotte met a little boy.

Maybe it was because he felt that Charlotte and his elder brother were kind-hearted, so this clever-looking boy came over.He kept a reasonable distance, and then asked Charlotte if they needed a guide?

He claimed that he had lived in King's Landing City for 12 years and knew all kinds of connections, and he could be hired with only four copper coins a day.

Charlotte looked at this 12-year-old boy, his speech was clear and logical, and his clothes were clean and tidy.For this kind of thing, Charlotte is not disgusted.So he asked, "Oh, are you really familiar with King's Landing City?"

The boy nodded repeatedly and said, "Hello Mr. Adventurer, my name is Blitz, you can call me Little Blitz. I am very familiar with King's Landing City! I grew up in the lower society of King's Landing City Asking for a living, basically I have a little news about everything you want to know..."

When Charlotte heard the name Britz, she almost couldn't laugh out loud on the spot!

Your name is Britz, I wonder if you can use a mechanical flying claw?

Charlotte suppressed a smile and said: "I really want to find a well-informed person to ask something. If you can help, the reward will never be less for you." Charlotte took out a few silver coins The deer weighed in his hand.

Little Blitz glanced at the silver stags in Charlotte's hand, and swallowed secretly.But he immediately turned his attention to Charlotte. When he spoke, he looked into Charlotte's eyes, which made people feel very frank and unavoidable.

"I don't know Mr. Adventurer, what news do you want to know? I will try my best to find out for you." Charlotte felt very satisfied seeing that little Blitz didn't take care of everything.Sometimes the tempering of life can make some people better.

Charlotte asked simply: "I want some Longyan Steel, do you know of any way to get some?"

Little Britz was taken aback when he heard the news. He hesitated and said, "Sir, if you came to King's Landing two months ago, you only need to spend some gold dragons, and you can get Longyan Steel very easily. But now Nowadays, even if you take out a lot of golden dragons, it is very difficult to get Longyan Steel."

"Oh..." Charlotte gestured to Blitzcrank to continue.

Little Blitz scratched his head and said, "Sir, you may have heard that the Iron Throne Chamber of Commerce is also collecting Longyan Steel. And their attitude is very firm! Now in this city of King's Landing, dare not give the Iron Throne There are not many face-saving ones! Therefore, the Longyan steel that is relatively easy to obtain in the market has been taken away by them. As for the other Longyan steel, they are also keeping a close eye on them. At this time, they want to get some Longyan steel Steel, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome!"

Little Britz means that if Charlotte wants to get Longyan Steel, it is very likely that there will be a conflict with the Iron Throne Chamber of Commerce.It seems that the Iron Throne Chamber of Commerce is not a legitimate businessman.

Little Britz looked around for a while, then leaned closer and whispered: "The Iron Throne Chamber of Commerce is not easy to provoke. In the current King's Landing City, they have almost agreed. If you really want to get some Dragon Flame Steel , maybe I can provide you with some useful information..."

Charlotte didn't have much hope at first, after all, she was just a child.But I didn't expect him to claim that there is still useful information!Charlotte continued to ask.

Little Britz and Charlotte talked about a hidden tavern.Claims that the tavern is the distribution center for news of the underground thieves' guild.There, as long as you meet the conditions with the bartender, the bartender will provide some help.

If there is any organization in Junlin City that can help Charlotte find Long Yangang.Then this underground thieves guild should be ranked first.As long as some kind of agreement can be reached, there are few things they cannot do in King's Landing City.

Charlotte saw what Blitz said was so swearing, and chose to believe it for the time being.He gave the silver deer to Blitzcrank, and made an appointment to find Charlotte tomorrow morning and take them to the tavern of the underground thieves' guild.If things work out, there will be other rewards.

Early the next morning, before Charlotte had breakfast, he found that Little Britts was already guarding the gate of the Moxi Chamber of Commerce's residence.Charlotte thought to herself that since she wanted the horse to run, she wanted the horse to be full.So I greeted him and had breakfast together.

Compared to yesterday's eloquent talk, Blitz Jr. was much more reserved. After he took a piece of bread and a bowl of oatmeal, he ate them quickly.Then wait for Charlotte and the others outside the door.

Just in case, everyone is fine.So everyone decided to go to the tavern of the underground thieves guild together.

The journey was not far, Charlotte rented a carriage, and then walked for a while.After half an hour, they arrived at the entrance of a tavern in a hidden alley.

This tavern is called the Barleywine Tavern.

Little Britz said: "The rule in this tavern is to drink a glass of ale for a lot of money. Then you can ask the tavern for some information, but the information will be charged separately."

Hmm~ Have a glass of ale and make friends?
