After eight or nine days of trekking through mountains and rivers, without deliberately speeding up, Lando arrived at Hecker as scheduled. At this time, he was extremely envious of Carter. If he had his ship, this distance would not be so long.
Arrived in no time?!
Compared to the chaos he saw the last time he came here, Hekel has completely changed at this time. Adventurers dressed in all kinds of strange clothes can be seen everywhere, and from time to time, a gorgeous carriage can be seen.
As we flew by, there were obviously more stalls and hawkers on the street, making it extremely lively.
After asking around, I found that there were still three days until the appreciation auction held by the Brazeau family.
The so-called appreciation auction was started by the Brazeau family, which united many nobles in the Eastern Region to bring out a large number of antiques and treasures of known or unknown origins to start a three-day appreciation exhibition. During this period, any connoisseurs and scholars can
Come here, if you can identify objects of unknown origin, you will not only get rewards, but also become famous in one fell swoop. It can be said to be both fame and fortune.
And during this period, anyone can bring their own treasures for free appraisal, and as long as they prove to be valuable, they can join.
After the appreciation exhibition is over, an auction will be held. As long as the owner of the treasure is interested, the auction can be held directly.
This event not only attracted a large number of nobles and wealthy businessmen from the Eastern Region, but also many civilians and adventurers came with family heirlooms or proceeds from adventures.
The above is the origin of what Lando saw.
Lando was also surprised that there was such a big movement. He originally thought that the Brazo family would join forces with the nobles of the Eastern Region to organize an auction, but he did not expect that it would become so lively in the end.
But this is also a good thing for him, after all, the more babies he has, the greater his gains will be.
At this time, he was a little hesitant to go to the Brazeau family, because looking at the current situation, he could achieve his goal by just sneaking into the appreciation exhibition, and there seemed to be no need to get involved with them.
However, he decided to go after thinking about it for a while. If others treat me as respectfully as possible, I will return the favor. The Brazeau family spent so much money to please him, and Lando would feel a little sorry if he didn't go.
Of course, from Lando's point of view, it was nothing more than being involved in the dispute between the Bishui royal family and the Brazo family, and he could handle such a trivial matter.
Arriving in front of the crowded Brazeau family gate, he heard someone shouting before he opened his mouth: "Lord Lando, is it really you?!"
Lando took a closer look and saw that it was the guard he had seen the last time he came here.
The guard said: "The young master and the master have been waiting for you for many days. They talk about how long they want me to have eyes every day. Now I have made you come. Come with me, and I will take you to see the master."
Lando nodded and followed the guard directly in.
"It seems that the Brazeau family is very lively during this time." Lando asked casually.
"No, there are not only many distinguished nobles in the family, but also many well-known scholars." The guard looked proud.
When they arrived at the inner courtyard, the guard nodded and bowed and said a few words to a person who looked like a steward, and then said to Lando: "Mr. Lando, I can't enter any further inside. Just follow this steward."
Already."
"Lord Lando, I have already told you to come with me," the steward said respectfully.
Lando nodded again.
When we came to the hall where we met last time again, Umut was already waiting at the door of the hall.
"Lord Lando, welcome to your arrival."
After a few pleasantries, Umut got to the point and said: "Mr. Lando, there are only three days left for the appreciation of the exhibition. You said that you are more interested in history, antiquities and treasures, so we have prepared a large number of treasures.
In addition, many scholars have been specially invited to analyze and appreciate it. I hope you will be satisfied."
Only then did Lando remember that he had indeed said that he was interested in history. He had said it casually to cover up the situation. He did not expect that Umut was quite capable of causing trouble, which made him very satisfied.
Seeing Lando nodding with satisfaction, Umut was also very happy. After all, he had put a lot of thought into this incident.
After chatting for a while, Lando ended the conversation on the grounds that he wanted to take a rest, but this time he did not refuse Umut's repeated attempts to stay, and stayed overnight at the Brazo family.
Lando was taken to a remote and quiet room. Outside was an independent courtyard with a pavilion in the center. There was a small pond and a few unnamed trees beside the pavilion. At this time, the trees were full of a kind of flower.
The pink flowers exude a charming fragrance, and there are some ornamental fish in the pond, which are also very beautiful.
Entering the room, it is not luxurious at all, but gives people a warm-toned home feeling.
"Are you satisfied, sir?! If you have any other needs, please explain." The steward who led the way asked respectfully.
"Okay, it's very nice here." Lando was very satisfied with the environment here.
"In that case, sir, please have a good rest. There are servants waiting outside. If you need anything, just let me know. Then I will leave first." After the steward said this, he turned around and left.
Lando waited for the steward to leave, and did not start to rest directly. Instead, he took out the scanner (a universal scanner (?ω?)), and after a simple adjustment, he began to scan the entire room, including the small courtyard outside.
After a series of analyses, Lando nodded. It seemed that the Brazeau family did not do anything stupid.
After filling up the monitoring and protective equipment as usual, Lando shook his tired head, threw himself on the soft big bed and began to fall asleep.
…………
At this time, only Umut and Metaru, who had just arrived, were left in the hall.
Umut held a cup of hot tea and drank it slowly.
Metaru reported the current situation on the side: "The mobilization of troops from the Bishui royal family is becoming more and more frequent, and intelligence has come from the dark side, and there are signs of mysterious team mobilization; from the nobles of the Eastern Region, we have obtained
There are many verbal promises, but once the war breaks out, it is hard to say how credible these promises are..."
Seeing that his son was a little pessimistic about this, Umut smiled nonchalantly and said: "Don't worry, son, our Brazo family has always only worried about the inheritance of the four kings. In the past, the Bishui royal family was powerful, so we naturally needed to be patient. Now
Their inheritors of the king have all been killed by Mr. Lando, and their final hope of rising has been cut off. There is nothing to worry about anymore. As for the nobles in the Eastern Region? Ha! They are just a bunch of blinders.
They are just things, they have never been the key!”
