In the early morning of the next day, when the sun rose from the horizon outside the pier, Xue Hua was packing his things and asked the clerk at the Shewan Tavern about how to enter the noble area.
The Noble District of King's Port is not as easy to enter as the port area. When Wood II expanded Dunkre, he did not demolish the city walls of Dunkre. Instead, he followed the walls on the east and west sides of Dunkre towards the harbor area.
Extended, and built roads and various buildings within the city wall, using the extended city wall to connect the original King's Port and Dunkre.
Therefore, Dunkre, which is now the aristocratic district, has its own city wall, and both its height and thickness have reached the level of a true outer city wall.
Since the aristocratic district is full of dignitaries, the public security there is naturally much better.
Under normal circumstances, residents of the port area are not allowed to enter the aristocratic area, and foreign merchants must go through a series of strict reviews before they can enter the aristocratic area with trade certificates.
Of course, it is impossible for Xue Hua to accept any strict scrutiny. Although his identity is absolutely no problem and he is definitely a serious businessman of Lu Gaoyin. He even has his own property in Lu Gaoyin for him to do business, but his body
The body is the deformation of a mimic larva. Although the transformation of the mimic larva is perfect, it can't stand the fact that there are legendary strong men stationed at the gate of the noble area.
Because of the strict censorship system of this legendary powerhouse and the noble district, even the infiltration of the insect swarm into the noble district of King's Harbor was very simple, so Xue Hua had to look for other ways to sneak into the city.
"Sir, for a decent person like you, if you want to enter the aristocratic area, you only need to pass the inspection. Why do you need to find other methods?"
The bartender asked with some confusion.
"I don't like being searched or having those weird things swiped around me or anything like that. Is there a way to get into the city without checking?"
Xue Hua shook his head and explained it with a random reason.
"Well... yes, there is, but..." the bartender hesitated for a moment, with a strange look on his face.
"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this method?"
"Well... there's no problem, it's just that this method is more troublesome than passing the review..." the bartender scratched his head and said.
"Oh? Tell me about it?"
"Sir, do you know the three major families in King's Port?" the bartender asked.
"Of course I know, why? This method has something to do with them?" How could Xue Hua, one of the three major families, not know this? Not long ago, he had offended one of the Margery family.
"It's like this. If foreign merchants want to enter the noble area without inspection, they must be guaranteed by a core member of one of the three major families."
The bartender nodded and explained to Xue Hua.
"I see......"
Xue Hua had a look of understanding on his face, and his mind was spinning rapidly.
He has had contact with the Margery family, the "gold-faced" family among the three major families. The legendary mage Ron should definitely be regarded as a core member of the Margery family, right?
In this way...
Hey......
A mysterious smile appeared on Xue Hua's face.
"Thank you, I'll leave now."
He nodded towards the bartender, picked up his empty luggage, turned around and walked out of the pub door.
Xue Hua had just thought of how to sneak into the noble area smoothly.
However, this method requires the cooperation of his rivals, the Margery family.
...
Near noon, at the gate of the Noble District of King's Port, a carriage slowly stopped in front of the professional soldiers guarding the city.
"Who is it? Outsiders are not allowed to trespass into the aristocratic area. If you want to enter the city, you must first register there and undergo inspection!"
A knight wearing a gold-level breastplate came over with two men and shouted a reminder directly to the carriage.
The side door of the carriage opened, and Xue Hua, wearing a luxurious silk robe, stepped out of the carriage with two bodyguards.
"My lord, I am acquainted with Sage Ron Margery of your country's Margery family. I would like to ask you to make it easier for me."
He walked up to the paladin and without any explanation put a small bag of gold coins into his hand, explaining with a flattering smile on his face.
"Do you know Mr. Ron?" When the Paladin saw Xue Hua's clothes, he couldn't help but relax a little. He turned around and winked at the two men behind him, and shook the money bag in his hand.
Well, at least there should be a hundred or ten gold coins!
"Yes, yes, I am Charlie Walls, a traveling merchant of Lu Gaoyin. Mr. Ron had a brief chat with me when he passed by Lu Gaoyin before. This time I came here specifically to pay a visit to Margery.
The family also wants to open up sales for some of our local specialties."
Xue Hua still had a tacky and charming smile on his face, and the smell of businessman's philistine copper naturally came out.
"Well, I see. Do you have any proof?"
Seeing Xue Hua's approach, the paladin captain was convinced at first and did not do any more checks. He just asked casually like a routine.
"Um, uh, Lord Ron was in an emergency at the time, and I didn't have time to ask for a token from you. You just asked me to tell you his name, so..."
Xue Hua once again approached the paladin captain, stuffed another small purse into the hem of his breastplate without any trace, then took a step back and said: "If you don't believe it, you can contact Mr. Ron to prove what I said below.
If so."
"That's not necessary. Lord Ron is a legendary powerhouse. How could someone like him be alarmed by such a trivial matter?"
A satisfied smile appeared on the Paladin's face.
Both he and his men saw the small money bag at the beginning. As the saying goes, everyone who sees it has a share of the benefits. This bag of money must be divided with his men.
Although he definitely got the big deal, how can sharing money be as satisfying as eating alone?
And the bag of money that Xue Hua just quietly stuffed into him was considered to be his personal belongings, and neither of the two men behind him saw this scene.
Faced with such a righteous guy, the Paladin Captain gave up the idea of continuing the investigation, turned around, took a parchment book, opened it, wrote the name "Charlie Walls" on it, and then directly followed it
The words "Guaranteed by the Margery Family" were written on it.
After the paladin registered, he handed the parchment book back to the two men behind him, then turned to Xue Hua and said.
"Okay, you can go in, but you two bodyguards can't be brought in."
"Of course, of course." Xue Huamei nodded with a smile, then turned to the two "bodyguards" with a serious look on her face and said: "You two, go back to the hotel and wait for me. I will come out after I'm done. Don't mess around.
Run, don’t get me into trouble, do you understand?”
"Yes, sir." The two bodyguards who had transformed into mimic larvae responded respectfully, then got back into the carriage and returned to the harbor area with the carriage.
"Well, remember, you can only stay in the city for one day. If you want to extend it, you have to ask your guarantor to re-register at the city guard office, otherwise you will be unable to move around in the city! Do you understand?"
The paladin nodded, gave Xue Hua a few final warnings, and then stepped aside, allowing Xue Hua to enter the noble area of King's Port.
