Roman didn't pay attention to the looks of several people in the room.
He nodded towards the middle-aged man closest to him and stood in front of the nearest bulletin board.
It is densely covered with various commissions and rewards.
It's almost the same as on the sea, except that there aren't as many bounties for pirates as there are on the sea, but more bounties for murderers and fraudsters who cooperate with the police.
Although Roman has no long-term plans to be a bounty hunter in Backlund, if there is a relatively easy task and there is enough time, Roman will not be unable to take it.
After all, in the next few days, Mr. Maxi Wade's main activities will be in the West End and Queens. These are areas where the rich and nobles gather, especially the latter. Many of them have extraordinary bodyguards.
The "Nighthawks" and "Punishers" in this area will also patrol the area more intensively, so it is relatively safe.
And Roman has been relatively free in recent days.
Later, when Mr. Wade goes to his manor in the northwest suburbs of Backlund to hold a banquet and entertain guests, Roman may be a little busier.
Mr. Wade is actively lobbying and running to seek a noble status, and even wants to go one step further and seek a seat as a member of the House of Lords.
Thanks to the arrival of the "Backlund Social Season", Mr. Wade no longer has to travel back and forth to various places in Loen.
Every year from June to New Year, the nobles of the Loen Kingdom will come to Backlund according to tradition to participate in various banquets, balls and salons. This is a very important event for them, and many things will take place here.
It was finalized within a few months, and as year after year passed, this tradition gradually took on a fixed name, called "Backlund Social Season".
The nobles came to Backlund from their fiefdoms across Loen and lived in their luxurious villas in the Queens District of Backlund and in their huge manor in the northwest suburbs of Backlund.
While observing the bounties and commissions on the bulletin board with great interest, Roman was thinking while he was suddenly interrupted by a voice next to him.
"Hey, buddy." The middle-aged man next to Roman just said hello to Roman: "You look very unfamiliar, are you a new bounty hunter?"
His tone was quite friendly. After all, Roman looked quite strong and not easy to mess with.
Roman did not reject the man. He looked down at the middle-aged man with dark skin and sparse brown hair. He nodded and said something that fit his personality: "Yes, I just came to take Baker with me."
Rand, come here and see if there's any work."
Roman didn't mention anything about his teammates or where he was from.
The middle-aged man with short hair was very enthusiastic, "I am from Jianhai County. I have been a bounty hunter in Backlund for five years. I am quite familiar with the missions here. If you need anything,
I can introduce it to you. By the way, my colleagues here call me 'Black Dog'." He smiled and continued.
"In the bounty hunter industry, no one has a name, only a codename. If you don't have one, I suggest you pick one."
Roman felt that the man in front of him was a little too enthusiastic, but he did not refuse this seemingly reasonable proposal. After thinking about it, he said, "Just call me 'Giant'."
Black Dog looked Roman up and down and said with a smile, "Not bad, it's a codename that suits you very well."
As he spoke, he wanted to pat Roman on the shoulder. He stretched out his hand and found that this action was a bit difficult, so he touched the top of his head with sparse hair instead and looked at Roman: "How are you doing? I'll see if you look at it for a while.
Favorite mission?”
He followed up and said: "I'll give you a suggestion. When you first arrive, it's best to take on some relatively easy tasks first, such as guarding, exploring, etc. After you have a certain credibility and reputation, the most important thing is to earn some money in advance.
After that, take on some slightly more complicated tasks.”
Although Roman was not used to the enthusiasm of the man in front of him, but thinking that what the other person said was considered good intention, Roman did not say any words of rejection and nodded: "I understand, I am still looking at these tasks.
"
"Giant, I happen to have a relatively simple task right now. I am currently short of manpower. I wonder if you are interested?" Black Dog looked at Roman and said.
Listening to the words of the man in front of him, Roman subconsciously wanted to frown.
Maybe this old bounty hunter has such a passionate personality?
Roman was alert, but with a look of interest on his face, he asked, "What kind of mission is it?"
Black Dog became interested in the tall "giant" in front of him, and started to introduce the task with a smile.
This is an exploration mission, and the mission location is a small town called Kermir in the north of Backlund.
There was a rather old manor in that town, which originally belonged to a certain minor nobleman. It changed hands several times and was sold to a grain merchant many years ago.
With the repeal of the Corn Act this year, the grain merchant soon became bankrupt and had to sell most of his property, including the estate.
The current owner of this manor is a wealthy man from Connacht, Duxi County, who is mainly engaged in the rubber business.
After acquiring this manor, the rich man originally wanted to carry out certain maintenance and repairs on the main building of the manor. However, when he was repairing the basement, he discovered a strange, ancient wall.
After taking it apart, the rich man's butler discovered that there was a passage behind the wall, which led to a wider area.
The housekeeper didn't dare to make the decision himself, so he reported it to the rich man.
This rich gentleman originally wanted to find the previous owner of this manor, but unfortunately the grain merchant disappeared after going bankrupt. As for the previous noble owner, it was impossible to trace it.
The rich man was worried that the passage might be unsafe and did not dare to let servants and workers enter rashly, so he issued a commission to find a security company, that is, a mercenary team or bounty hunter, to explore the area behind the passage and bring
Report the results to him.
The request of this rich man is that there should not be too many people exploring, not to attract too much attention, and not to call the police.
"My guess is that the price for this rich man to purchase this manor will not be too high. If something valuable is found inside, it may cause other troubles later." Black Dog said after the introduction; "I didn't know you had any
Not interested? I have now summoned two other teammates, plus at most one more person."
After listening to Black Dog's introduction, Roman felt a strong sense of déjà vu.
Words like ancient, underground, and architecture may mean "treasure" in the eyes of others, but for Roman, this sense of déjà vu made him feel dangerous, and he immediately wanted to refuse.
Just as Roman was about to refuse, Black Dog continued: "This rich man is very generous. Each of the four of us can get a reward of 20 pounds. If there is danger, there may be some compensation afterwards. The only requirement is,
If something valuable is found inside, such as gold, antiques, documents, etc., the ownership belongs to him."
20 pounds... is indeed quite generous.
Out of caution, Roman still wanted to refuse, but suddenly he thought of something and said to the black dog: "I'll go to the bathroom first, and I'll answer you when I come back."
Black Dog nodded and watched Roman walk out of No. 9 chess and card room.
When he came to the bathroom, closed the wooden door, Roman took out a gold coin from his arms, which was the divination gold coin he bought from the rookie girl Arya. This chapter has been completed!
