If it is an ordinary person, it is definitely wary to be invited by a group of people. But for Richard, he is confident in his own strength, and he doesn't have much to worry about - if the other party really invited him with ulterior motives, he really doesn't know who the unlucky one will be.

Glancing at the other party, Richard thought for a moment and said, "There is no problem with the price you offer, I can join you and go north with you." But I don't know when you're leaving?"

"Tomorrow, tomorrow morning. Bud, with his beard on his face, replied quickly.

"Is it because you want to invite more people to share the price of the mercenary team?"

"Not really. Bud shook his head, "The main thing is that tomorrow there will be a ship coming to this alfalfa port, and there will be the other half of our caravan on board, and I am going to take them with me." ”

"Of course. Bud added, "It would be nice to have more people like you by tomorrow morning." ”

"Okay, tomorrow morning, meet here?" asked Richard.

"Yes, we will wait for you. ”

"Good. Richard nodded, flipped his hand as he spoke, and three more silver coins appeared in his palm, handing them to Bud.

Bard was stunned for a moment, subconsciously took it, opened his mouth to look at Richard and said, "This ...... Sir, are you so relieved of me, aren't you afraid that I will take the money and deceive you?"

"Will you?" asked Richard rhetorically.

Bud became serious, his expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "I promise you in the honor of the Blue Feather Merchant Group that I will definitely keep my promise!"

"I'll see you tomorrow, I believe. ”

"See you tomorrow. ”

......

After talking to the people of the Blue Feather Merchant Clan, Richard ate the honey bread, drank the water, and left the inn and walked towards the large trading market not far from the port.

Generally speaking, in the current world, every port will have a similar large market, where there is a complete variety of things to buy, as long as you can name it, you can find it.

The reason for this is that the merchant ships in the port will carry a lot of goods from other places, and most of the shipowners will not have time to sell them one by one, but will sell them to the owners of the large market in the port. And when they return to the ship, they will naturally not go back empty, but will try to buy some special products that seem profitable.

The comings and goings have greatly promoted the circulation of various commodities, resulting in the market at the port often having more things than the market in the city, and the prices are also cheaper.

Richard went to the big market and started shopping. A variety of things were purchased, ranging from iron and copper ingots to glass and clay pots, to meet the needs of the basic materials in the Garden of Eden for a long time.

In this kind of procurement, a day passes quickly before you know it.

......

The next day.

Richard met the Bard group of the Blue Feather Merchant Regiment in the "Fire Shochu" tavern, and after a brief hello, he walked out of the tavern and walked towards the avenue leading inland from the far side of the port.

There, a convoy of wagons loaded with goods was parked, and a squad of a dozen mercenaries in leather armor was on guard.

Watching the mercenary team do their duty, Bard's expression was slightly relieved, and then turned bitter.

Richard asks Bard out loud to find a few Lone Wanderers like him?

Bard smiled bitterly and gave an answer: "It's less than expected, except for you Mr. Richard, there is only another big man named 'Harvey'." ”

"But then again. Bard said to Richard, "This is actually a good thing for you, Mr. Richard. I started with a spacious four-wheeled carriage for you loners, nay, that's it. Now that no one else has joined, you and that Mr. Harvey will be exclusive, and it won't be crowded. ”

"That's it. Looking in the direction of Bard's finger, Richard saw that at the end of the carriage convoy, there was indeed a four-wheeled carriage parked, the carriage could be opened in front and back, it was a temporary modification of the carriage for loading, but the space was indeed large enough, and there would be no sense of depression when sitting in it.

"Thank you. Richard glanced at the carriage and said to Bud.

Bard said, "Yes." All right, Mr. Richard, go and sit in the carriage, for that Mr. Harvey is already inside. And I'm ...... We went to take care of some of the rest of the business, and when we were done, we set off. ”

"Good. Richard nodded, and walked towards the carriage.

Walking to the front of the carriage, opening the door of the carriage behind him, and entering the carriage, Richard saw that there was indeed a person waiting inside.

is similar to what Bard said, the other party is very big, about 1.8 meters tall, weighs nearly 200 pounds, and does not have any excess fat on his body, he is full of heavy muscles and has a sense of strength. Coupled with a heavy iron sword in his hand, it looks like no one is close to him.

However, the other party's expression did not look cold or serious at all, but was very talkative, and when he saw Richard getting into the carriage, he took the initiative to say: "You are the other companion that Captain Bard told me, what is your name...... Plum...... Li ......"

"Richard. ”

"Yes, yes, it's Richard. That, my name is Harvey, I'm from Morton, and this time I'm going to go north with the merchant group to see the world and see the world. In addition...... "After learning Richard's name, the man named Harvey began to introduce himself, and then said all the past like a bamboo tube pouring beans, and then looked forward to the future with a wistful expression.

"You know, when I went to the north this time, I was hoping that some nobleman would hire me as a knight. If that's the case, I'll be able to settle down, marry a beautiful girl, and have a son and a daughter. The son's name is Harley, and the daughter's name is Hallie......"

Richard: "......" Seriously, he's seen someone he knows so well, but he's never seen someone so familiar in front of him.

The tall Harvey became more and more excited, and he finished his life with his hands and dances, even about how to be buried when he died. And after saying this fantastical thing, he turned back to reality, suddenly thought of something, looked at Richard, and asked, "Alas, by the way, your name is Richard, right?" That Richard, the leader of their Blue Feather Merchant Regiment, Bard, asked you for how much money did he agree to take you to the north?"

"Three silver coins. Richard said truthfully.

"Three silver coins. Harvey exclaimed, "Well, he didn't overcharge me, because he only asked me for a silver coin." ”

"Well, wait a minute, he only asked me for a silver coin?" Harvey was stunned, as if he had discovered something terrible, and glared, "He only asked me for a silver coin, but asked you for three silver coins, isn't this a lie? Really, you wait for me, I'll go and reason with him, and get back the money I asked for." ”

As he spoke, Harvey was about to get out of the car, but was stopped by Richard the next moment.
