Chiyan City is not a small city. It is two-thirds the size of the Chinese Imperial Capital. Since there are mercenary activities here all year round, there are quite a lot of rare treasures in this city. After all, many rare treasures are needed
It can only be obtained through a very dangerous expedition. And most of the people who do this kind of work are mercenaries.
With such resources, Chiyan City is of course very prosperous. After all, with these rare treasures, merchants will come to buy them, and purple gold coins will continue to flow into Chiyan City.
The most powerful family in Chiyan City is of course the mercenary family.
The mercenary families of the Chinese Empire existed before the founding of the Chinese Empire, and the mercenary families of the Chinese Empire also had their own mercenary group. It was also the most powerful mercenary group in China, the Flame Mercenary Group.
Although there are many mercenaries in this Scarlet Flame City, like other cities, there are only a small number of troops to maintain public security. Despite this, the security of this Scarlet Flame City is still very good. Of course, this is indispensable to the contribution of the Flame Mercenary Group. The Flame Mercenaries
In addition to taking risks outside with other mercenary groups, the Corps is also responsible for the security of Chiyan City.
Gongsun You took Nangong Aotian while walking and introduced the situation of Chiyan City to Nangong Aotian. Avril was supplementing on the side.
Looking at the mercenaries coming and going on the street and the various shops on both sides of the street, Nangong Aotian felt that this trip was really worthwhile.
"Because there are so many mercenaries in our city, the blacksmith shops and auction houses here are more lively than in other cities. Of course, there are also many other shops." Gongsun You pointed to a blacksmith shop on the street.
Nangong Aotian said, "There are blacksmith shops like this everywhere. After all, mercenaries take risks outside all year round, and their weapons are lost a lot. Of course, there is a lot of demand for this."
"I didn't expect that this city could be so prosperous." Nangong Aotian said in amazement as he looked at the bustling flow of people on the street.
"Our mercenary family has set up mercenary unions in the southeast and northwest of this city to issue tasks. The mercenaries often come here to submit tasks and receive new tasks." Gongsun You said with a smile, "So there are a lot of mobile mercenaries.
"
"Who issued these tasks?" Nangong Aotian asked.
"Anyone can do it. Our mercenary union basically accepts any task and publishes any task." Gongsun You said with a smile, "As long as it is a task we take, no matter which mercenary completes it, we will charge them
One-tenth of the remuneration received. Of course, if you want to publish a task in the mercenary union, you also need to pay a certain fee to the mercenary union. At least one purple gold coin is required."
"So the mercenary family must be very rich." Nangong Aotian looked at Gongsun You and said after thinking for a while.
"Actually, not really. The daily expenses of our mercenary family are also very large. Of course, the mercenary family does make some money by relying on the mercenary union." Gongsun You said with a smile.
"Hey, Gongsun Guanshi." Just as Nangong Aotian and Gongsun You were talking and walking, a voice suddenly turned over and said, "This is...this is Miss Avril~!!"
"Li San, it's you." Gongsun You looked up at the twenty-year-old mercenary in front of him and said, "Is everything in the family okay now?"
"It's okay." Li San said hurriedly, "I'm just waiting for you to come back."
"Oh!" Gongsun You said, "What's the matter?"
"The elders of the family have decided to marry the mercenary family of the Silver Eagle Empire, so they are waiting for Miss Wei'er to come back." Li San said while looking at Avril and Nangong Aotian.
"Okay, go and do your work." Gongsun You frowned slightly before saying.
"Huh! I won't marry that person from the Silver Eagle Empire." Avril frowned and said softly.
"Let's go back quickly. We must not let this happen." Gongsun You also frowned and said.
After walking for another half an hour, Nangong Aotian and the others arrived in front of a very spacious house.
The height of the outer wall of this house is actually three meters high. The main entrance is even more high. The two large stone lions at the entrance are also two meters high. They look really majestic. On the huge plaque at the main entrance are written four freely flowing red words.
Painted with large characters "Mercenary Family"
"Weier, I didn't expect your home to be so grand." Nangong Aotian said with admiration as he looked at the decoration in front of the gate.
"The main city of Holy Dragon City is more impressive now." Avril said as she walked towards the vermilion gate, Gongsun You and Nangong Aotian followed closely.
Avril knocked on the door and saw the two huge doors in front of her slowly opening, and a warrior in his fifties with strength in the martial arts level came out.
When he saw Avril, he couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised, "Miss Weier is back."
"Is my grandpa in there?" Avril asked, looking at the person in front of her.
"Here you are." The martial artist at the martial arts level said quickly.
At this time, Nangong Aocai saw the hugeness of the mercenary family's house.
The house of the mercenary family is as big as Kalai Academy. The surrounding buildings are very magnificent. Two hundred meters directly in front of the gate is a very large stone statue. The statue looks like a mercenary, about twenty meters long.
height. The statue is in the center of a huge square. Directly opposite the square is a magnificent building.
"Brother Tian, that building is where I handle all important matters in our mercenary family." At this time, Avril pointed to the tall and magnificent building in front of the square and said to Nangong Aotian, "My family lives next to that building.
In which small building."
Nangong Aotian looked in the direction of Avril's finger. Although the building was not very big, it was extremely stylish.
Avril walked all the way to introduce the layout of the mercenary family to Nangong Aotian. Soon the three of them arrived at the door of the building where Avril's family lived.
"Weier, you're back." The person who opened the door for Avril, Nangong Aotian, actually knew him. It was none other than the woman named Mary whom Nangong Aotian met at the same time when he first met Avril.
"Aunt Mary." Avril called out affectionately as soon as she saw Mary and threw herself into Mary's arms.
"My Miss Avril, you really surprise me." Mary was also very surprised when she saw Avril at first sight. "How did you practice and reach the martial arts level?"
"Of course it's because of my hard training." Avril said immediately.
"This little brother is... that Nangong Aotian!!!" At this time, Mary finally raised her head and saw Nangong Aotian, and the surprise in her eyes could not be concealed. "How come you have reached the eighth level of martial arts? This
...This is simply unimaginable.,”
"Haha, the result of hard work." Nangong Aotian borrowed Avril's words at this time and did not explain much.
"Mary, you actually know Duke Nangong?" Gongsun You said with some surprise as he looked at Mary.
"Yes, he seemed to be just a very ordinary boy at that time." Mary looked at Nangong Aotian and said. Suddenly she was surprised again, "What did you call him, Duke!!!"
"Yes. This is the classmate from Kalai College that Avril told the patriarch before." Gongsun You said with a smile.
"So it's you. Wei'er never said before that this kid is the young boy we knew at that time." Mary looked at Nangong Aotian with much more enthusiasm.
"It's thanks to him that we came back this time. Otherwise we wouldn't have been able to come back." Gongsun You sighed and looked at Nangong Aotian and said.
"Oh. What's going on?" Mary asked quickly.
"Aunt Mary, let's go in first. I heard that my grandpa is sick and I have to go and see him." At this time, Avril couldn't bear it anymore. She stood up from Mary's arms and took Mary's hand and said.
"Oh, well, let's go in first and talk." When Mary said this, the joyful expression on her face disappeared instantly.
