Chapter 187 (1/2)
After sweeping the three people, Soga slightly touched his hand and motioned for everyone to calm down. Seeing Soga's gestures, Nicole, Roger and Xiang Yun closed their mouths at the same time and looked at Xiang Yun suspiciously.
After a little thought, Soga said in a deep voice: ”don't argue about what identity to enter. Now I just want to know what is the purpose of entering the great trade route?”
Facing Soga's inquiry, Nicole said categorically: ”of course, we are going to take an adventure. There are many strange creatures, rare Warcraft, strange scenery and treasures left over from ancient times in the great business road, so we must enter as an adventurer!”
With a smile and a nod, Soga looked at Roger. Under Soga's gaze, Roger said flatly: ”I don't think so. We don't go to the great trade road to play, but to become heroes who successfully cross the great trade road. Therefore, I think we should be mercenaries and protect the trade team all the way, so we can naturally achieve our goal!”
As soon as Roger's words fell, Xiang Yun said: ”wrong, very wrong. What we want is not just a false name. The reason why we want to enter the great business road is to constantly challenge ourselves and surpass the limit, so... We come to challenge experts, so... I think we must be thieves. Only thieves can challenge infinitely!”
Hearing what the three said, Soga smiled, nodded and said, ”well, I understand what you three mean. In this case, I'll synthesize it. In my opinion, the most suitable identity is a businessman!”
”What!” Hearing Soga's words, Nicole and the other three looked at Soga in surprise and said in one voice: ”how is this possible! We are martial arts. How can we enter the great trade route as businessmen? ”
Looking at the three with a smile, Soga said calmly: ”as businessmen, we can do business in the great business road, but at the same time, we also have the advantages of other identities!”
While talking, Suo looked at Nicole and said, ”aren't you going to explore? Aren't you looking for rare Warcraft and ancient treasures? Can't we explore while transporting the goods? ”
Speaking of this, Soga turned to Roger and said, ”as for you, I won't say it. Don't you want to follow the merchant? In that case, if we are businessmen ourselves, we will follow ourselves. There is no difference. ”
Finally, Soga looked at Xiang Yun and said, ”as for you, you want to challenge an expert. I agree with that, but don't you know? All the experts are among the thieves, and... Instead of trying hard to find our opponents, how can we let our opponents automatically come to the door? ”
Hearing Soga's words, Roger and Xiang Yun couldn't help brightening their eyes, but Nicole was still dissatisfied. He frowned and said, ”although that's what you say, can't it be all good to enter as another identity?”
”No!” He shook his head categorically, and Soga explained, ”take thieves as an example. Although they can also trade on great business routes, think about it. Once the thief group has a reputation, who will do business with them?”
”This...” hearing Soga's words, Nicole couldn't help hesitating. Indeed... Businessmen can fight thieves. They are natural enemies. If you want to be a thief, you can't be a businessman.
Thinking about it, Roger said, ”boss, although I agree with choosing businessmen, it's OK to choose mercenaries, isn't it? Isn't that so? ”
”No!” The mercenary's problem is that you must follow other caravans and have no right to move freely. In this way, even if the goal of the exploration is on the roadside, we don't have time to explore it
In the face of Soga's explanation, Roger suddenly opened his mouth and nodded again and again. Indeed... If he became a mercenary, he must escort enough caravans to pass the level. There is no freedom.
After a long silence, Xiang Yun said in a low voice, ”but Captain, as you said, thieves and businessmen are natural enemies. Since you are a businessman, you can't be a thief!”
He glanced at Xiang Yun slightly and said plainly, ”as soon as you take the flag and the badge, you can become a thief immediately. Isn't this a very simple thing?”
”This...” hearing Soga's words, Xiang Yun hesitated for a while, then his eyes suddenly brightened and said: ”in that case, it's the same with us as thieves. Take off the thief badge, can't we be businessmen?”
With a wry smile, Soga said helplessly: ”boss, businessmen pay attention to credit and fame. You take off your badge. Although you can hide the identity of thieves, I ask you, who will do business with a caravan without fame and credibility?”
Hearing Soga's words, Nicole, Roger and Xiang Yun couldn't help thinking. After thinking for a long time, the three finally raised their heads and looked at Soga with admiration. Xiang Yun said with admiration: ”sure enough, if you think carefully, only choosing businessmen is the most perfect. Businessmen can have the advantages of all professions at the same time, but they don't have their disadvantages, It's really the perfect choice! ”
Smiling and nodding, Soga said flatly, ”since everyone agrees, I can choose a businessman. You should think about it. Once you choose it, it can't be changed!”
In the face of Soga's inquiry, the three nodded at the same time. Then... Soga picked up his pen and drew a check mark behind the merchant. Then... He continued to look at other terms of the form.
The following contents are all identity certificates. After a simple inquiry, he filled them in. Finally... Soga handed the form to the clerk and received a Amethyst certificate. The certificate is composed of a complete Amethyst with grooves. Each pass will get a special crystal stone, which will be embedded in the groove, It proves that the team has passed this level. When all the grooves on the certificate are filled, it means that it has successfully crossed the great business road.
After completing all the formalities, Soga and others did not choose to enter the great business road immediately, but prepared to have a good rest for a few days. After their body and mind completely recovered, they entered the great business road with the most full emotion and spirit.
In the next few days, in addition to the fixed cultivation, the four people let go of their body and mind to play every day. Everyone knows that once they enter the great business road, there will be no such leisurely time.
Everyone else went out, but Soga didn't want to go out. There was no way. In Ross City, Soga found a lot of things only here, which were brought back from the great trade route. How can Soga be indifferent to so many treasures from the great trade route?
However, as early as Amen City, Soga had spent all his money. However, Soga had to open the furnace to refine medicine, then auction it, and then use the money from the auction to buy these treasures from the great trade route. What makes Soga feel sorry is that good things seem to have been bought long ago, and the rest are ordinary goods, but nevertheless, Soga is already very excited. You know, these are just ordinary things on the great business road. In Soga's eyes, they are invaluable.
For several days in a row, Soga stayed at home and made medicine with all her strength. Within a week, she sold thousands of groups of medicine at sky high prices. Soga used the money to buy materials that seemed invaluable to Soga.
This is more than that. What makes Soga most excited is that there are a small number of commercial coins sold at the auction. Although the selling price is ridiculously high, how much money is cost-effective for Soga. As a businessman, the most important thing is the accumulation of original capital. With this money, once you enter a great commercial route, at least you don't have to worry about starting capital.
After wandering for a week, Nicole, Roger and Xiang Yun finally came back. When everyone heard that Soga had found 10000 commercial coins in a week, they were surprised to open their mouths. Suddenly, Xiang Yun realized that it might be the most correct decision to make Soga the captain!
Rose city is a city on a desert oasis. It can only be reached after crossing the tagan desert. It is worth mentioning that rose city is only at the edge of the tagan desert, less than 1000 kilometers away from the edge of the desert.
In the early morning, before the sun rose, the four people of Soga braved the night to leave from the other side of Ross city and continued to walk through the vast tagan desert, which is the largest and worst environment in the world. At the same time, it is also the first pass of the great business road - death desert!
Only the sea can compare the terror of the desert. Once you step into the sand sea, no matter how strong your strength is, you can't guarantee to come out alive. Storm, quicksand, cold, heat... The terror of the desert can't be described in words.
A month after Soga and his party set foot on the great trade road, in the distant holy light Empire and the magnificent palace, Duomei trembled with a letter, and tears had blurred her eyes.
The letter was sent back by a secret detective. It only reads a few big words on it - Soga has entered a great trade route!
Looking at the letterhead in her hand, Duomei recalled the expectations of Soga for them at the beginning. Yes... Soga armed them at all costs in the hope that they could go on a great business road with them, but now they have failed to live up to Soga's friendship.
It has been nearly two years since Soga left. In these two years, the female gods of war seem to have enjoyed all their glory, wealth, power and complacency, but only they know that this is not the life they want. How can a phoenix flying high in the blue sky be willing to lie in the chicken nest for a lifetime?
Money? right? Status? Glory? Everything seems so childish. Their hearts have lost their goal and their souls have lost their direction.
Regret it? That's right... From the day Soga left, regret is like a poisonous insect eating their hearts every day. This pain, not only has not been forgotten, but has become more intense with the passage of time.
”Shua...” she grabbed the letter in her hand, and Duomei stood up fiercely. With a fierce breath, Duomei hurried back to the room and quickly packed her bags.
Half an hour later, the four princes, in the study of the emperor of the Holy Light Empire, Duomei stood there with a determined face. Opposite her, the emperor of the Holy Light Empire looked at her angrily.
Take a deep breath, the four princes said in a deep voice: ”how beautiful! Over the years, I have treated you well. You want power, I give you power, I want money, I give you money, I want glory, I give you glory, but now you tell me you want to leave, which I can't understand!”
