96. Trade Points

The Wind Chasing Tribe, as one of the seventy-two fulcrums of the Snake Route, the importance of this trade point is much more important than most people imagine.レm♠Thinking♥Road♣Guestレ(Baidu Search Literature Museum W wW.W oM)

The so-called front-to-tail snake route is a trade route specially developed by the Pancontinental Chamber of Commerce Alliance for the wild land. It has a total of seventy-two trade points. These trade points are located at the outermost edge of the entire barren land, forming a circle. The distance between each trade point is about twenty days, and the error will not exceed five. sky. In other words, it would take four years just to travel through the seventy-two trade points in the barren land.

Of course, this refers to the situation where you have to visit the entire periphery of the barren land. But in fact, very few people can do this, even for people like Andre who have lived in the wild land for more than five years, he has not really completed a region——The Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce Alliance’s response to the wild land The territory is vast, and the seventy-two trading points are divided into six regions according to the import and export of six wild places.

The six regions are the Great Rift Valley, Ellison, Birmingham, Nadarafka, Robert, and the Millennium Covenant, where the import and export are firmly controlled by the Millennium Covenant Empire.

The Wind Chasing Tribe belongs to one of the twelve trade points in the Great Rift Valley, and it is also the first trade point that will definitely arrive after entering the Canyon Rift Valley.

Under normal circumstances, the Wind Chaser Tribe should be able to become the most prosperous trade point in the Great Rift Valley, or even the center of the entire region. But in fact it is quite the opposite. Among the twelve trade points in the Great Rift Valley, the Wind Chaser Tribe has maintained a mid-level ranking. The main reason is that the slave catchers in the wild land are not frequent. In and out of the two regions, coupled with the palpitatingly high death rate and scarcity of resources, it is only natural that the development situation is limited.

Of course, this has a lot to do with regional conditions. After all, going out from the Great Rift Valley is the territory of the Kingdom of Dabion and the Principality of Ryan. And this entrance happened to be in the relatively barren border area of ​​the two countries, and businessmen could not find much profit and business opportunities here, and naturally there would be no development if there were fewer people coming and going. Most slave catchers will choose the Millennium Covenant District, Birmingham District, and Erison District as the main development and import and export areas, so these three areas are the most prosperous areas in the entire snake route.

Andre had lived in the Chasing Wind Tribe for a while, so he knew the basics of this place, so under the leadership of Andre, Xiao En and others didn't need to take too many detours, and found a place to stay easily. The place.

This is an area consisting of dozens of tents, surrounded by a fence. To distinguish it from other tents. The inside of the tent is also a little different from the other tents Xiao En saw along the way. In this huge tent made up of dozens of tents, there is a khaki-colored carpet.

There are also some furniture and decorations inside. Except that everything around them seems to be made of cloth, the feeling given to Sean and others is no different from those hotels in the city.

And after passing through an area similar to a tavern hall. This is the accommodation area called Chasing Wind Hotel. What is different from ordinary hotels is that the "rooms" of this hotel are divided into high and low grades - the high-end room shared by Sean, Cecilia and Tini is a dúlì tent, inside It is covered with a soft and thick layer of white wool cushions, and some symbolic furniture and furnishings are also covered with a layer of cushions at the corners. In addition, even the washing area and the toilet have corresponding bathrooms. Planning, unlike the low-end area. You need to share a toilet, and there is not even a washing area.

After all, the Chasing Wind tribe used to be a tribe in a barren land. Even though it has become a human territory now, many things can't be changed if they want to. After all, water resources are a scarce resource here in the barren land. Therefore, there is only one public bathhouse in the entire Wind Chasing Tribe. Anyone who wants to take a bath can only go here, and the charges are very expensive. Even the water in the bathhouse is not changed every day.

The dúlì tent where Sean and the others live can have an additional washing and bathing area. In the Wind Chasing Tribe, it is already considered a large-scale project.

However, here in the wild land. Usually there are no women, so it is not an embarrassing thing for slave catchers, merchants, and guards to make do with it in the public bathhouse. But Andre was able to discover this carefully and choose such a suitable place to stay, which would naturally allow him to win the favor of Cecilia and Tini. After all, these two women have a relatively long relationship. Haven't showered in a while.

While Cecilia and Tini were busy taking a bath, Sean did not stay in the room, and there was no need to worry about the safety issues here, because this Chasing Wind Hotel was jointly run by several small chambers of commerce in the Chasing Wind Tribe. The next gold powerhouse and the armed tribe of the entire trade point are directly responsible for guarding, and no one dares to make trouble here. Of course, even if they want to make trouble, ordinary people probably won't be the opponents of Cecilia and Tini, let alone Andre and others, unless the next gold powerhouse makes the move himself.

Therefore, Sean left the Wind Chasing Hotel very relieved, and began to hang out in the Wind Chasing Tribe.

The barbaric land has the rules of the barren land. Although this is a jungle society that advocates the strong and the weak, it is undeniable that because of the emergence of the Pangea Chamber of Commerce, this area has a rare order, at least in the trade point. Inside, no private fights are allowed. In addition, the wind and sand here are extremely strong. Under normal circumstances, people who move here in the wild land will wear special hooded cloaks. If the identity is leaked, the so-called retaliatory actions are usually not very successful.

On this point, it has greatly increased the safety of the slave catchers living here in the barren land.

After Sean bought those barbarians before, he didn't treat these barbarians like ordinary slaves. Naturally, they fell into the eyes of some caring people. In addition, there were bears in Sean's team, and Sean himself When he revealed his true face, not many people around saw him, so some people were suspicious of Sean's identity and targeted Sean, just because of some unspoken rules. So no one dares to make a move here.

But when Sean wandered around, he still keenly felt that there were three people following him.

Sean didn't know what the purpose of these three people was, but he wasn't interested in knowing either. The reason why he left the team to hang out at this time is just to better understand the specific situation of the trade point of the snake route, because there was no such situation in the game before, although he followed the guild when he came to Utopia. It's already after the second expansion, and entering the wild land here is even after the third expansion, but players are different from each other after all. Because they all know how to search for so-called "strategies", "tutorials" and even communicate with each other on forums.

However, looking at the entire development history of "Miracle" on the forum, nothing like this happened at all. He always felt that this world had deviated greatly from the world history he knew. If this situation continues to deviate, will the world change according to the major historical events he knows as turning points?

Sean began to feel a little worried, or fearful.

Fear of the unknown.

at this time. A person whose height only reached Sean's shoulders suddenly collided with Sean.

"I'm sorry." The man apologized in a panic.

This is a boy who looks like a child. Although he is wearing a hooded cloak that is unique to this wild land, the hood on his head is not covered by a veil, so Sean can see the slightly immature face of the other party. face. This discovery made Sean feel a little bit surprised, because according to Andre's introduction along the way, Sean generally knows the situation in the wild land relatively well. The least likely people to be here are children and the elderly.

Although women's words are very rare, they are not non-existent.

After all, sometimes when nobles go out, there must be maids by their side. Of course, like Sean, he directly brought a female magician and priestess out. Don't say it's never seen before, or even heard of it.

Here in the barren land, the only people who can see children and old people are captives. That is slaves.

But the child in front of him is obviously a normal human being. Instead of slaves, because slaves don't have hoods and cloaks.

But the surprise is the surprise, Xiao En has heard about the trade point from Andre before, and Dang even said with a smile: "As long as you return the money bag to me, I will treat it as if nothing happened .”

"Sir, what are you talking about?" This time, the boy really showed a look of panic.

"Among the three people who have been following me, is one of your companions?" Sean reached out and touched the right side of the cloak, where there was a very small long opening, although the cloak did not look damaged on the surface, But in fact, it has been cut open by some kind of sharp weapon that Xiao En doesn't know, "Now there are only two people following me, and the other one has disappeared. It is obvious that you took the money bag that you stole from me. It's moved."

"Sir, I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about." The young man shook his head in a panic, turned around and wanted to run away, but was caught by Sean with one hand, and the pain was already excruciating with just a little force The teenager was almost in tears, "Sir, please... please let go, it hurts."

"Shouldn't the first lesson in the Thieves Guild teach you thieves to know how to pick targets?" Sean's right hand said, holding the young man's left wrist tightly, with a smile still on his face, "Eighty Pan Continental gold coins, although they are not a lot of money here in the Chasing Wind Tribe, but they happen to be our one-night accommodation fee. If you only take a few gold coins, I will turn a blind eye and close one eye, and bow my head. That's not the way to pay Fei either....It's a little tricky."

"Hey, outsider, don't you know that the Chasing Wind Tribe doesn't allow private fighting? They haven't released this child yet."

Xiao En turned his head, and saw that the person who spoke to stop his behavior was one of the other two who had been following him, and there were already several other people surrounding him at this time. This scene reminded Sean of a lot of interesting things, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised—even though no one could see it, Sean still smiled very happily, and even his voice became a little excited and light: "Is it because the thief is a child, so I should forgive his wrong behavior?...Since you adults can't discipline children well, why don't I educate you?"

"What do you want to do!?"

"Crack!"

A crisp cracking sound resounded on the spot!
