Dali respectfully handed his business card to the receptionist: "I have something to ask for, and I would like to see the mayor."
The receptionist glanced at the business card sideways: "Do you have an appointment?"
Dalihan said: "This, no."
The receptionist said: "The mayor is very, very busy. Please don't disturb the mayor without making an appointment."
Dali said anxiously: "But I have something important to do!"
The receptionist said: "The mayor has important things to do every day. Your important things are nothing compared to the mayor's important things. Please come back."
Damn it, it’s too bureaucratic! Dali said anxiously: “Then how can I meet, uh, get an appointment?”
The receptionist threw Dali's business card out of the window impatiently: "The mayor will not waste your precious time meeting some ignorant people."
What kind of attitude, you are just a concierge! Dali said angrily: "I am also a baron and a lord, not some ignorant person!"
The receptionist sighed and took out a knight's badge from his arms: "Did you see it clearly?"
Dali was stunned: "This, this, you, are you a viscount?"
The receptionist said calmly: "Do you understand?"
Dali sighed: "I understand." Are there really lords everywhere and knights as numerous as dogs?
The receptionist said: "Then, let's go to gain reputation. The reputation is almost there, and then go to gain merit. If the merit is almost there, then it's almost done."
Um, after all, it is still the normal player mode. There is no privilege given to Dali just because he is a country baron? Dali is so painful. However, speaking of it, it is quite simple to increase the reputation of the big city to the level of respect. Give the quartermaster a large amount of gifts.
All kinds of cloth are just like the humanoid monsters in the cloth dungeon. They are almost guaranteed to drop. They are so cheap that they are too lazy to pick them up and they take up a lot of space in the bag. It is this meritorious mission that makes them annoying.
I went to the auction house vigorously to buy cloth. This street was still very popular.
——"The latest news, it's 19 yuan and 6 cents gold coins! Hurry up and ship it!"
——"It has risen to 19 yuan and 7 cents!"
Dali was stunned, this is so crazy? Let them speculate, hahahaha. When Dali entered the auction house, he was dumbfounded - the shelves were all empty! Dali was choosing the category of cloth. No, except for the sky-high price cloths listed by some speculators and profiteers, Dali was completely empty.
No! No, it’s understandable that you scan equipment and materials, but you even scan cloth! How weird?
OK! You are cruel! Dali yelled directly on the regional channel: "Collect a large amount of cloth, 20 bundles of linen for 1 gold coin, 15 bundles of wool for 1 gold coin, 10 bundles of coarse silk for 1 gold coin, pay directly to the mailbox to get the mail!"
The regional channel immediately responded: "Wait, we will go and clear the copy immediately, a hundred times, a hundred times!"
Hehe, have you seen it? Have you seen it? I am afraid that you will scan the goods!
By the way, gold coins are valuable now, prices have plummeted, and the price of collecting pets will naturally drop, so the regional channel shouted again: "Long-term acquisition of various low- and mid-range pet eggs, 2 gold coins for level 10, 4 gold coins for level 20, 30
Level 6 gold coins, level 40 10 gold coins, level 50 15 gold coins, pay directly to the mailbox to receive the mail."
Ignoring the noise from the regional channel, what should I do now? Do some errands? What a pain in the ass. By the way, look for Earl Robertson. He is the only big shot I know in the big city, so I have to pay him a visit. If he has good connections and good reputation,
, wouldn’t you just recommend me to see the mayor with a few nice words?
Try to find a patrol NPC to find out the count's address. These NPCs have a systematic tour guide function.
Earl Robertson's Mansion. Oh, it's very grand. It seems that he is doing well in a big city where jazz is everywhere. Dali suddenly has a lot of confidence in him. However, since he is asking for help, he really can't go up empty-handed.
Question? Dali struggled for a long time. It seems that even the high-ranking officials look down on Xiaodong and Xiaoxi? Well, it’s better to go empty-handed. Anyway, I can’t bring out anything that others will like. If the thing I give is low-end, I might make people angry.
people.
Dali respectfully handed his business card to the doorman: "My Lord, Baron Dali is here to visit Lord Robertson."
The concierge's attitude was surprisingly good: "Please wait, I will send a message to the master right away."
Hahaha, look, how can a concierge be so polite? This is called aristocratic temperament. That viscount, he deserves to be a concierge. After a while, the concierge came out and greeted: "Please do this, my lord -"
Then the butler greeted him politely: "Dear guest, please--"
Wow hahaha! In other words, this is called hospitality.
"Baron Dali, welcome, it's a great honor! Please have a seat, please have a seat!" Robertson greeted warmly. At the same time, a maid immediately served tea.
Dali said hurriedly: "Your Excellency, you are too polite. I am new here and I don't understand many things. I hope that Your Excellency, the Count, can give me some advice."
Robertson smiled and said: "I see, that's easy to say. If there is anything you don't understand, Lord Baron, just ask me."
What a good man! Dali said happily: "Thank you, sir. Well, I want to meet the mayor. Is there any way?"
Robertson frowned: "That's it, it's troublesome. There are countless people queuing up who want to see the mayor. Even with my title, I can't just meet you whenever you want. Generally, you have to make an appointment and have to queue up."
Dali asked: “How to get an appointment?”
Robertson said: "Generally speaking, you need to have a high reputation in the city and have made outstanding achievements!"
Well, going around and around still requires reputation and merit, why is it such a pain in the ass?
Robertson added: "Reputation is very easy to handle. Just donate money and property. I believe this will not trouble the Baron, but it will be a bit troublesome for meritorious service. However, as the director of the Fisheries Bureau of this city, I do have the right to issue meritorious service to the Baron."
I wonder if the Baron is interested in doing something for the Fisheries Bureau?"
Alas, there is no other way, this is the only way. Dali had no choice but to say: "Thank you, Lord Earl, for your concern. Please release the task."
Robertson said: "Piracy has been rampant in recent times, and fishing income has been greatly reduced. Many seafood restaurants in the city are in urgent need of ingredients, especially several high-end ingredients, such as moray eels, sea catfish, yellow croakers, shrimps, etc. I heard that the Baron is on the verge of extinction.
Hailiang Town is very famous, and it would be of great help if the Baron could provide it in large quantities. However, please rest assured, Lord Baron, our bureau will collect all kinds of fish at this price!"
After saying that, he handed Dali a price list. Dali's eyes widened. Dali had eaten at Nasaiyan's luxury tavern. The purchase price of these ingredients was almost as high as the price of vegetables! He asked in surprise: "My lord, Count."
, Is this meritorious mission long-term? There is no limit to the number? "
Robertson nodded and said: "Exactly! The more and as soon as possible, the better. This is an excellent opportunity to gain both fame and fortune. Don't miss it, Baron."
Wow hahaha, my favorite is this kind of unlimited task! Yes, you get both fame and fortune! I like it! Fishing is not easy. The fishermen in the town are unemployed these days. Orles is having a headache. Go back and ask for help.
Erles sent warships to protect the fishermen, and then I gave him a share. With his urine, there is no way he would not agree to such a good thing that kills three birds with one stone!
Dali said happily: "Thank you, Lord Count. I will definitely not disappoint you!"
——System prompt: You accept the meritorious mission "Solving the Seafood Shortage in Darnassus City"
Robertson smiled and said: "In that case, I will take Baron Dali to the fishery pier to see where the acquisition station of our bureau is, and let them get to know the baron."
"Okay, okay."......
After completing the tour and getting familiar with the process, he bid farewell to the count and took a boat back to Nasaiyan.
Nasaiyan Town Administrative Hall, Mayor's Office.
Dali discussed with Orles about the warship protection of fisheries. Orles stared at the Fisheries Bureau purchase price list that Dali gave him, hesitant.
Why is there any hesitation in this? He strongly advised: "Sir, you can kill three birds with one stone. You can not only generate income, but also build a good relationship with the superior leaders in the city, and you can also solve the unemployment problem of the fishermen in the town."
Finally, Orlais shook his head: "No, I just calculated the cost of protecting the fisheries. Sending fewer warships will not be able to protect the fisheries. Sending more warships will simply make ends meet, and at the same time it will increase the risk of town defense, so it is really not possible.
"
Um? The cost of fishery protection!? Oh, yes, although the purchase price of the Fisheries Bureau seems to be much higher than usual, it will not make up for the expense of dispatching warships! Oh my god, I thought it was pie in the sky.
The mission of gaining both fame and fortune, how could I know that there is such a tune!
What should we do now? Why not sneak away and find a nook to hide and fish? But it is very risky, so we should ask Hurley and the others.
Dali left the administration hall worriedly and went straight to the Pier Hotel. As soon as he entered the door, the hotel environment was much fresher and restored the elegant and elegant style of the Elf Hotel. Many local idle sailors were playing cards and drinking.
"Brother, big brother is here!" Hurley and the others greeted hurriedly.
He greeted vigorously: "Haha, hello everyone!"
A man in black robes sitting at the counter couldn't help but look towards the door, and looked directly at Dali - Damn it! Brother Brin! He's finally back, and he came here to drink? Or rum? It's too low-end!
Wow hahaha, I understand, I must have no money to drink high-end wine, right? Hehe, Brother Bryn, as the legendary master who will appear in the later version, it is not okay to wander around and not do his job!
Dali said enthusiastically: "Mr. Brin, why are you here!"
Brin coughed dryly and said: "There are many people here, bustling with news."
Dali said seriously: "Mr. Brin, I have something to ask of you. Please help me! The reward will be generous!"
Brin's brows jumped when he heard about the generous reward, and he said calmly: "Tell me, see if I'm interested."
Dali said loudly: "It's like this... In short, we just ask the navy to escort the fishing boat."
Wow! A room full of local sailors immediately burst into an uproar. Hehe, Dali has experienced the power of these guys, and his ears are pointed.
Brin sighed: "Hey, I really can't do anything about you. Considering that you have helped me, I reluctantly agreed. How to calculate the reward?"
Dali whispered in his ear: "Excluding the wages for fishermen, 30% of the net income will be given to you."
Brin stretched out his fingers: "Fifty percent!"
Damn you! You should have let your mistress kill you in the first place! She strongly advised: "No, this business is not between you and me. I also want to be filial to the earl and to the mayor. If nothing happens,
We must serve them well. If they are unhappy, we will not be able to continue our business."
Brin sighed: "Okay, then 30%."
Dali was overjoyed and said to a room full of sailors: "Folks, did you all hear what I said just now to Master Brin? You must be feeling aggrieved when you are unemployed during this period. Is there anyone who is willing to go fishing with me?
?The restaurants in the city are so anxious that they buy seafood at high prices!"
Everyone was whispering and the whole room was buzzing.
Dali said: "Mr. Brin, show your skills?"
Brin said proudly: "Okay, let you see!" Everyone followed Brin out of the hotel with a roar.
Brin's palms faced each other, and the flames in his palms were burning. The flames turned from red to purple, and the air around him continued to heat up. The onlookers could not help but retreat in fear.
——Go! A large purple fireball dragged a long tail, roaring through the sky! For a long time, there was a faint sound of thunder from the horizon.
He is truly a genius mage, and his skills are incredible! Dali said to the stunned crowd: "Do you have any questions?"
Everyone exclaimed: "We will go back and call people right away!"
