MTL - Another World Sandbox Gamer-Chapter 14 administrative officer alix
Knowing that building a house in the Storm City area needs to buy land first, Ren can only continue to hurry and move towards the city.
After he left, the owner of the woods just sat back and enjoyed the success, and just used a carriage to pull the "treated" logs back.
When he finally arrived at the city gate, the guards at the gate carefully questioned him, and finally let him go after confirming his identity.
Ren also got useful information from them. If he wants to buy land, he has to go to the Castle of Storm City to find Political Officer Alex.
Although it is a border city, the city is quite prosperous.
The streets are crowded with people, adventurers and caravans come and go from south to north, and all kinds of horses and carts shuttle incessantly.
There are all kinds of stalls and shops on both sides of the street, and there are constant sales.
Food, fruit, weapons and armor, daily necessities are all available.
Ren passed by a fruit stand and found that they were selling fruits from another world that had never been seen before, and could not see any varieties on earth.
The nearby vegetable stall was also a commodity he had never seen before, which shocked him greatly.
There are also local specialties, a kind that looks like pancakes and is cooked in the same way. I don’t know what ingredients are used. The whole round pancake is purple, and many people buy it, which is very popular.
After asking, I found out that this kind of food is called Cha Cha, a local delicacy in Storm City, and it is priced at 2 copper coins.
After Ren bought one and tried it, he thought it tasted okay.
After investigating all the way, I found that the price of Nangris Kingdom is not high.
There are three common common currencies in this world, namely copper coins, silver coins and gold coins.
100 copper coins are equal to 1 silver coin, 100 silver coins are equal to 1 gold coin, and 1 gold coin is equal to 10,000 copper coins.
Compared with before crossing, 1 copper coin is about 1 yuan, and 1 gold coin is 10,000 yuan.
Renn got 50 silver and 69 copper from Kunna, which is equal to 5069 yuan.
No wonder the three people said they robbed them. A crocodile skin water bottle and the water inside sold for more than 5,000 yuan. It was indeed similar to Ming robbery, although the water source in the desert was very precious.
Of course, considering that the pot of water can save lives and even let them stick to the oasis, Ren doesn't think it's too much.
After traveling all the way, we finally came to the castle.
The castle guard blocked the way and asked loudly, "What are you doing?"
Ren stepped forward and replied politely: "I'm here to see the political officer Alex! I heard that you can ask him to buy land."
"I want to call Mr. Alex, you pariah!" The guard said rudely, "Report your identity!"
"My name is Ryan, Ryan Hooper!"
The guard on the right walked in front of a stone tablet, and words from another world automatically appeared on it.
Seeing the words that appeared on the stone tablet, the guard snorted coldly: "It turns out to be an exile from Herman Kingdom! You came out of the sea of despair? You have some skills!"
"Go in!" The guard on the left stepped out of the way, "Go straight inside, the first entrance is the government affairs hall."
Ren nodded, thinking that the castle defense was so lax?
Or, that magic stone tablet can judge whether the person entering the castle is dangerous?
Anyway, I entered the castle smoothly and soon came to the government affairs hall.
Entering the hall, I found that there was a long queue inside, and at least hundreds of people were waiting in an orderly manner, men, women and children.
There are soldiers beside him to maintain order, and the innermost is a middle-aged man who is sitting behind a desk and looks very shrewd.
The middle-aged man was wearing glasses and was listening to a woman's statement. Because of the distance, Ren had no way of knowing the content of the conversation. He was dealing with a problem anyway.
There were soldiers blocking him, so he couldn't run to the front and listen carefully.
Although I don't like queuing, I have no choice but to wait at this time.
System time, 3:31 pm.
Finally, it was Ren's turn.
Administrative Officer Alex took a sip from the water glass, cleared his throat, looked at Ren and said to him, "The exile of Herman Kingdom, Ren Hober?"
"It's me!" Ren nodded. It seems that the castle guard looked up his name on the stone tablet just now, and the administrative officer could also receive it in some way.
"What's your business?"
"I just came out of the Sand Sea of Despair and want to settle in Storm City." Ren replied, "I have 50 silver coins on me, and I want to buy the cheapest piece of land."
Alex turned the pen in his hand a few times and tapped the notepad lightly: "Mr. Hooper, only residents of Storm City can buy land. You are an outsider and do not have such qualifications! Do you have a registered adventurer status? "
Ren shook his head.
"It is recommended that you register as an adventurer first, so that you can stay at any hotel in the city. Or directly apply to the Adventurers Association for assistance. If the association has vacancies, they will take you in! Next!" Alex looked behind.
"Wait a minute!" Ren asked quickly, "Can't I be accommodating? I want to own my own land and build my own house."
Alex thought for a while: "There is a way to buy land!"
"What should I do?" Ren asked hurriedly.
"The first method is to apply to join the fortress army. Recently, the sea clan has been harassing frequently, and soldiers are being recruited there. As long as you join the army and make meritorious deeds, you can become a resident of Storm City after being discharged from the army, and you will be eligible to buy land!"
"You are only eligible after you are discharged from the army. How long will it take?"
"At least one year, UU reading www.uukanshu.com as many as five or six years, it depends on the situation! The premise is that you survive on the battlefield."
Of course Ren didn't want it, it took too long, so he said, "The reason I was exiled by the Herman Kingdom was because I refused to submit to military service!"
Alex shrugged: "Then this method has nothing to do with you! Refusing to obey military service will not lead to exile, and you are also unlucky. Herman Kingdom is at war with the neighboring Kingdom of Mandras, and it is obviously at a disadvantage. In this case, new recruits are urgently needed. , refusing to obey will of course be dealt with severely.”
"Is there any other way?" Ren asked.
"Yes! The second method is to join the Adventurer's Association as I just said." Alex replied, "You can get rewards and merits by accepting the tasks officially released by our Storm City. When you complete enough tasks If you gain the trust of Storm City, you can become a resident of Storm City and get the qualification to buy land."
"Then how long will it take me to qualify?"
"At least half a year, at most a year! The premise is that you work hard to complete various tasks."
"Is there a faster and less troublesome way? I want to find a place to settle down as soon as possible."
Alex said: "If you want to buy land in Storm City, you must gain our trust. Not everyone can stay as a resident of Storm City. Or, you can go to the neutral zone!"
"The Neutral Zone? What is the Neutral Zone?"
"The so-called neutral zone is an area that is not actually controlled by any country, or belongs to a country in name, and the country is temporarily unable to send troops to station and can only give up." Alex replied, "For example, Despair Sand Sea, there is the neutral zone. , is currently the first choice for exiled criminals in various countries. Then there is the monster forest north of Storm City! These two places are very dangerous, and there are very few people who can get out alive!"
