Chapter 35 Professional Team

"But what?"

Seeing his hesitation, Mo Lan asked aloud.

"After you open a store, gangs will send people. After you have an agreement with them, you can continue to open it. If you can't agree with them, you can't open it."

Al's wording was more tactful, but Mo Lan understood it directly.

"It's the protection fee. I understand. Are there no other conditions? For example, go to the city lord's mansion, or report to the castle? Apply?"

"Ah, why do you need to file an application?"

Al looked at Mo Lan suspiciously, and Mo Lan nodded upon seeing this.

"It seems that if you want to open a shop, you only need the consent of the gangsters. Well, it feels weird."

"Hope these gangs will talk to me well, otherwise."

A trace of ferocity flashed in Mo Lan's eyes, and the evil spirit on his face made Al tremble subconsciously.

"I can only run."

"Take me around the DC area, mainly where there are shops."

Al nodded, and directly led Mo Lan around the DC area.

There is only a blank area about 50 meters away from the city wall from the residential area. There are no buildings in the blank area, but now it has been occupied by various stalls and hawkers. They have black hair, black eyes, yellow skin, and familiar accent jokes. Lan felt like visiting temple fairs when she was young.

"Candied haws, sell candied haws, a bunch of candied haws, sour, sweet and delicious."

Enter the area of ​​houses in the familiar melody. Most of the houses here are built of mud bricks, but many of them are built of wood and stone.

There are various types of houses with wood and earth walls, and there is no horizontal or vertical, giving people a very scattered feeling.

Al skillfully led Mo Lan to scurry around, and after a while, he brought him to a place with a lot of people.

The houses here have faintly become a street. There are taverns, grocery stores, grain stores, etc. on the street, and there are relatively many people.

But Mo Lan still shook her head in disappointment.

"Go to the next one."

Hearing this, Al immediately led Mo Lan out of a small alley, and when passing by the tavern, he even said hello to someone before leaving.

Not long after, Mo Lan saw another street similar to the one before, but Mo Lan still shook her head when she saw it.

"Next."

I looked at one place after another, and after looking around Mo Lan, I was a little disappointed.

"Let me ask you, are there mercenaries in the city, adventurers, are there mercenaries or something?"

"Yes, there is the Adventurer's Union, the Warrior's Union, the Archer's Union, and the Assassin's Union, all of which are there."

Hearing this, Mo Lan's eyes brightened.

"Take me to the Adventurer's Guild and the Warrior's Guild to have a look."

Al nodded when he heard the words, and led the way directly.

"The Fighter's Union and the Adventurer's Union are together, in the middle of the DC District and the North District."

Al walked with Mo Lan for a long time, and the Red Maple City was much bigger than Mo Lan expected.

After wandering through the streets and alleys, Mo Lan finally saw two adjacent halls in front of a street.

The doors of the two buildings are very high, and the curved arches look very shocking. The arches of the adventurers are painted with various patterns of warcraft and money, and the doors of the Warriors’ Union are filled with figures and weapons. , looks rough but has a lot of charm.

What surprised Mo Lan was that this street was very bustling with people coming and going. As soon as Mo Lan entered, he felt the lively atmosphere rushing towards his face.

Both sides of the street that can run three carriages are full of shops, and what particularly attracts Mo Lan's attention is the blacksmith's shop all over the street. The sound of clanging hammers echoes in the street. Weapons make the excitement on this street up to a higher level.

"Al, let me ask you a question, which city gate has the most adventurers and fighters?"

"North City Gate!"

Al replied without hesitation.

"Okay, where we are now, which road is the closest to the North City Gate."

On this east-west street, Al led Molan to a small path behind the adventurer's hall.

It is said that it is a small road, and a half-horse carriage can pass through it, but the flow of people on this road is suddenly much thinner.

However, Mo Lan carefully noticed that almost everyone who came and went on this road was carrying a weapon with them, and almost all the people who came back had some injuries, and some had animal skins on their backs.

The most important thing is that although there are shops on the side of the road, there are not many of them. Seeing this, Mo Lan nodded in satisfaction.

"Do you know the guy who lives around the corner?"

Mo Lan pointed to the house at the corner of the intersection and asked.

"do not know."

Al shook his head.

"I want to rent his house, what should I do?"

"You can go to the gang here, you want you to negotiate, and they will help you."

Mo Lan blinked her eyes when she heard this.

"Is this a gang? Isn't this a boy's agency? Forget it, if you want to call it a gang, call it a gang. Take me to find the gang here."

"Well, the gang here is called the Black Crow Gang. This area is their territory, and there are many people."

It didn't take long for Mo Lan to see a large courtyard. The people in the courtyard were all covered in flesh, with many scars on their bodies, entangled with evil spirits, and they kept their weapons close to their bodies. Obviously, they were not good people.

As soon as Mo Lan came over, he saw a group of people beating a player at the gate of the yard?

Well, it is indeed hitting a player.

Al led Mo Lan to the gate of the small courtyard, bypassing the beaten players.

"Little devil, what are you doing here?"

"Scar, he wants to rent a house to open a shop."

The fierce man with a scar on his face glanced at Mo Lan.

"Where do you want to set up shop?"

"The house at the intersection of the street behind the Adventurer's Guild."

Al said aloud.

"To rent a house, one hundred copper nass a month, you have to pay for three months first."

"How do you calculate the protection fee for opening a store?"

Mo Lan continued to ask.

Dao Scar smiled when he heard the words, the scar on his face was pulled a bit ferociously.

"It doesn't matter if your business is good or not, it's two hundred coppers a month."

"Two hundred copper nas? So expensive?"

"Go away, poor ghost."

Scar's face turned cold.

"I can pay the protection fee, but if I pay the protection fee, what will you do?"

Dao Scar's expression improved slightly upon hearing this.

"No gangsters to rob, no one to rob your store, no patrolling guards to blackmail you.

As long as someone is making trouble in your store, the Black Crow Gang will help you solve it. "

"major."

Mo Lan gave a thumbs up and asked again.

"If my business is good, will you continue to increase the protection fee?"

Scar looked at Mo Lan differently.

"meeting."

Mo Lan blinked her eyes when she heard the words, this gang is really sincere.

"How much will it increase?"

"Take one-tenth of your money, and then the Black Crow Gang will send someone to help you, ship, transport, sell things, open up various relationships, and help you deal with various things, including killing people."

After speaking, Scar gave Mo Lan a ferocious smile.

"If the money you earn can alarm our leader, there will even be professional fighters to protect you and your shop."

Mo Lan fell into silence, and suddenly asked.

"Can you help people change jobs as fighters?"

Scar smiled ferociously.

"Money, a lot of money."

"Sir, the Black Crow Gang has been in Hongfeng City for twenty years, and it is the most disciplined gang in the entire Red Maple City."

Al suddenly said aloud, Mo Lan smiled when he heard this, and said to Scar.

"Deal, and, your boss is really a talent!"

"I wish you a fortune, and besides, you are not the first to say that."

Scar grinned ferociously.

Scar grinned ferociously: "Hand over all your tickets to me!"
