Zhao Hai and the others were about to pack up their things and set off. Just then, a person suddenly walked over from the camp next to them.

The man was dressed in luxurious clothes. However, it was not a Noble’s robe, but an ordinary warrior’s uniform. Zhao Hai knew that this man was just putting on a show. He had never seen anyone use such good fabric to make a warrior’s uniform. After this battle, a normal mercenary’s annual income would probably be gone.

Zhao Hai looked at the man who was slowly walking towards him in confusion. The man did not have any weapons on him. He had a smile on his face and did not seem to be a threat.

The man clearly knew the rules. He stopped five to six meters away from Zhao Hai and bowed to Zhao Hai. &Quot; Sir, please. I am the manager of the Shunfeng Chamber of Commerce. I have no other intentions in coming to find you today. I only wish to travel with you. What do you think? ”

Zhao Hai was taken aback. He looked at the man. Although the man was dressed in a different style, the scale of the caravan was not small. Zhao Hai took a look and realized that there were more than 200 cars.

The man looked at Zhao Hai and quickly said, ” “Sir, please do not misunderstand. We have not offended the bandits here. We, the Shun Feng trading company, have been doing business between the Arkas Empire and the Rosen Empire for nearly a hundred years. We have been walking this path for a long time and are very familiar with our friends on the road. This time, we only want to travel with you and have no other intentions.”

Zhao Hai looked at the merchant and smiled, ” &Quot; it just so happens that this is our first time going to the Roson Empire, so we don’t know the rules. Since we’re travelling with you, we might as well consult you. I’m Weyers, may I know your name? ”

&Quot; I am the manager of Shunfeng trading company, ” the man quickly said. &Quot; if you are done packing, we can set off immediately. &Quot;

“Alright, let’s go together. This way please, Mr. Feng.” Zhao Hai smiled. Feng POQI smiled and turned back to his carriage.

…..

Zhao Hai didn’t quite understand what Feng POQI meant. Why did he suddenly think of traveling with him? after getting into the car, Zhao Hai asked Laura in confusion, ” “Laura, have you heard of Shunfeng trading company?”

Lola nodded and said, ” of course I’ve heard of it. Shun Feng trading company is a medium-sized trading company in the Roson Empire. It’s not very big, and they often do business between the Roson Empire and the Arkas Empire. However, because the Versailles Duchy was quite far away at that time, they have never been there. &Quot;

Zhao Hai nodded,”how’s their reputation?” Right now, we know nothing about the Roson Empire. It would be good to have someone who knows about it to give us some pointers.”

Lola nodded. &Quot; they have a good reputation. The Shunfeng trading company has always been known for its honesty. Although it is not a top-tier trading company in the Roson Empire and Arkas Empire, it is still very famous in the business circle. &Quot;

“That’s good,” Zhao Hai nodded,”but why do you think they’re looking for me? We don’t have much contact with them, and we only have two cars. One of them is for people, so we’re obviously not doing business.”

Lola smiled and said, ” although we don’t look like we’re doing business, they value the ability you’ll show them tomorrow. Don’t forget, not only did you show that you’re a level-seven mage, but you also dealt with those bandits so beautifully. You even made those bandits willingly stay here to keep watch for you. How could they not think of ways to rope in a person like you? ”

Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; I just don’t want to make enemies with those mercenaries. Think about it. If those mercenaries can move around in a place like this, and they passed through many people’s camps and surrounded us, don’t they have guards on night duty? That’s impossible, right? Those people have guards on night duty, but they pretended not to see them. This means that these bandits are very familiar with them, so I don’t want to have a conflict with these bandits.”

Actually, when Zhao Hai saw those bandits, he suddenly thought of the bodyguard agency he had read in a novel back on Earth. The bodyguards in those bodyguard agencies would shout the number of the escort and put up the flag when they were bidding. It was to tell others that they were from that bodyguard agency.

Just like what was written in the book, if you wanted to open a bodyguard agency, it was not based on how good your martial arts were. The most important thing was whether you had a wide range of people and whether your friends in the underworld would give you face.

Since the bandits had dared to Rob here, even if they had managed to steal something, they would have gone to cold wind fortress and hundred battle fortress to dispose of it. It was impossible to say that they had no relationship with the guards of those two places. Zhao Hai did not want to offend their guards before reaching the hundred battle fortress, so he gave the bandits 1000 gold coins.

Of course, he couldn’t tell Laura and the others about this. Laura wouldn’t feel the heartache of spending 1000 gold coins. 1000 gold coins was indeed a lot to ordinary people, but it wasn’t much to them. It was worth it to spend 1000 gold coins to let those bandits keep watch for others.

Their convoy had just set off when they heard Feng POQI’s voice from the side, ” &Quot; Mr. Wells, would you like to come to my carriage? I’ve already prepared some side dishes and fruit wine. How about we have a drink? ”

Zhao Hai smiled and turned to Laura, ” “He’s here, I’ll go take a look.” “That’s what I was thinking,” he laughed loudly. He opened the car door and walked to the balcony outside the car.

On the platform outside the carriage, Zhao Hai looked to the side and saw a carriage that was similar to his. This carriage was receiving the flame horse. Feng POQI was standing on the platform of the carriage and looking at Zhao Hai.

The two carriages were very close to each other. They could reach each other’s carriage in one step. Zhao Hai smiled and got into Feng POQI’s carriage.

&Nbsp; Feng POQI invited Zhao Hai into his carriage. His carriage was similar to Zhao Hai’s, with the same design. It seemed like this design was the most popular style on the continent.

On the small cabinet in the middle of the carriage, there were four side dishes and two glasses filled with red wine. Zhao Hai took a look at the four dishes. They were all magical vegetables that were very popular on the continent. They were also well made. Although there was not a large amount, they were very well made.

It must be known that it was very difficult for ordinary people to eat magic vegetables in winter. There were many civilians on the continent who could only eat salted vegetables for their meals this winter. Some families didn’t even have salted vegetables.

However, Zhao Hai did not say anything. Laura had mentioned that Shunfeng trading company was a medium-sized trading company. On the mainland, a medium-sized trading company was already very impressive. The red spider lily shop that Laura used in the Duchy of Versailles could only be considered a small trading company on the mainland.

After Feng POQI invited Zhao Hai to take a seat, he raised his glass and smiled at Zhao Hai, ” “To be able to meet on this journey is also a kind of fate. Mister, please.” Zhao Hai also raised his glass and clinked it with Feng POQI’S. He smiled and said, ” “Please,” he said.

The two of them took a sip of wine and placed their glasses on the cabinet. Zhao Hai smiled and said, ” “Mr. Feng, why do you suddenly want to travel with me today?”

Feng POQI was stunned. He didn’t expect Zhao Hai to be so direct, but he smiled, ” &Quot; it’s mainly because you did a great job last night. To be honest, we all know the bandits in lifeline Canyon. It’s your first time, so you’ll definitely be robbed. But it’s my first time seeing someone like you, who resolved it so well. I can’t help but want to make friends with you. &Quot;

Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; Sir, you’re really Frank. To me, it’s just a matter of waving my hand to exterminate those bandits. However, I’m afraid that these bandits have connections with the defending troops of cold wind fortress and hundred battle fortress, so I didn’t touch them. &Quot;

Feng POQI nodded and said, ” Sir, you’re right. These bandits can be said to be raised by the cold wind fortress and the hundred battle fortress. Of course, they’re in contact. Don’t look at how these bandits come out to Rob people. In the end, the money that falls into their hands isn’t much. Most of the money they have to hand over to the cold wind fortress and the hundred battle fortress’s defenders. We’re well aware of this. &Quot;

Zhao Hai looked at Feng POQI in confusion, ” “Why are they doing this? Wouldn’t it be the same if we just set up a checkpoint at the fortress and collect taxes?”

Feng POQI smiled,”didn’t you notice?” These Chambers of Commerce have connections with some of the more powerful nobles. Don’t look down on the power of these nobles, they have the ability to prevent the garrison from setting up a roadblock to collect taxes, so the garrison thought of this method. Although everyone knows what’s going on, they can’t do anything about it. ”

Zhao Hai nodded his head. He agreed with Feng POQI. On the continent, one should not underestimate the power of the aristocrats. All those who underestimated the power of the aristocrats were dead. The aristocrats did have the ability to prevent the garrison at the fortress from setting up checkpoints and collecting taxes.

It was much more convenient to use bandits. The bandits were the ones who wanted to Rob you, and these bandits were at your lifeline. It was not convenient for the Roson Empire and the Arkas Empire to meddle in this. Even if the great nobles thought that these bandits were too much, they could just change to another batch. To the defenders, this was nothing.

Feng POQI looked at Zhao Hai and smiled, ” “May I know why you are going to the Roson Empire this time? Looking at the badge on your car, you should be from the Arkas Empire, the Duchy of Versailles, right? The cars behind you, they seem to be the direct descendants of the Versailles family, right?”

&Quot; yes, I’m a Viscount of the Versailles Duchy. I’m going to Tianshui city to settle some matters. The princess of the Versailles Duchy is sitting behind me. She’s going to Carson City to study, ” Zhao Hai replied.

Feng POQI nodded his head, ” Tianshui city is a good place. It is a port city with developed commerce. The taxes there are also very low. It is a good choice to do business there. Hehe, look at me. I don’t even know if you are going there to do business. That’s all I’m telling you. &Quot;
