Broad World

Relying on the fast speed of the magic carriage, Tenn found these people one by one according to the address on the note. When it got dark, the two finally visited the last person and returned to the car. Henry sat down on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief. This time, he invited two mages, a bard, two martial arts instructors, a senior ranger, and finally a dexterous thief. After the celebration, these people will take the letter written by him and take a boat to Waterdeep City, where they will pass through the Brown Bear Chamber of Commerce and reach the Angome Islands.

Turn looked at the satisfied Henry and smiled. He felt that the earl was really racking his brains for his territory. "I'll take you back to the Golden Oak Hotel now. Tomorrow is the Harvest Celebration. You'd better get enough sleep tonight. The carnival will last all day and night. There will be no quiet environment for you to sleep in tomorrow night."

Henry shook the list in his hand excitedly. "I think I can start the carnival now. You have to know that it took a lot of effort to find a qualified teacher. Now that I'm leaving, my stomach is already hungry, and I need to find a place to have a good meal."

Tenn laughed and patted him on the shoulder. "That's right, it's best to keep it like this. The celebration is only fun if you're happy. You've been a little reserved these days, but it's much better now." He started the carriage and drove towards the hotel quickly.

As soon as he returned to the hotel, Henry saw a half-orc warrior who was a little drunk. He was sitting in front of the counter with his head tilted, while the hotel owner kept patting the table and laughing. Henry stepped up and patted Vaughn on the shoulder curiously and asked, "What's going on, you're smiling so happily?"

The boss tried his best to keep his laughter down, pointed at Vaughn and replied, "This guy actually wanted to talk to Zuwotha Boling in the tavern just now. This female half-orc ranger is famous for her hot temper around here. She rushed up and punched this guy. Then knocked him to the ground in two seconds."

"I didn't want to strike up a conversation. It's just that I occasionally met the same kind and wanted to say hello. By the way, I bought her a drink. Who knew that this woman hit someone with a fist, and I lay on the ground before I could react." Vaughn raised his head. Henry found that one of his eyes was a little black, and it seemed that he had been beaten badly.

The boss, who had already stopped laughing, broke out again, and even Tern, who was standing aside, was infected. After sending the half-orc warrior upstairs, Henry turned around and asked, "Who is this Zuwosa Boling? I know Vaughn's strength very well. It is impossible for ordinary soldiers to put him down quickly even if they attack suddenly."

The boss shook his head and replied: "I don't know too much. I only know that she comes to the city a few times a month to buy some basic daily necessities and maintain her weapons. According to other rangers and druids, she built a wooden house in the forest outside the city and lived there to hunt for a living."

"I'll go back first. Remember to come to the Supreme Palace on time tomorrow. When the carnival is over, Alastriol wants to discuss something with you." After speaking, Tun waved his hand and walked out of the door.

After watching him leave, Henry said to the boss next to him, "Is there anything to eat? I haven't eaten for a day."

"Haha, you're asking the right person. We have a special dish here that ordinary customers will ignore." The boss took out a menu and pointed out a dish called stewed meat. "Don't look at the common name, it is stewed with a spice essence called Marzella, which is native to the world of Klein."

Henry readily accepted the boss's recommendation. "Give me two copies and send them to my room."

The innkeeper smiled and gave a thumbs up. "You won't regret it. Get ready to taste the delicious stew." He turned and walked to the kitchen, ready to cook this dish himself.

Henry smiled and shook his head, and when he returned to the room, he fell directly on the bed. He was really tired, having spent most of the night with Alustria and then running around the city all day. In the end, in order to invite these professionals, he not only offered generous salaries, but also gave them the right to teach freely.

Just as Henry was considering how to allocate these people, there was a knock on the door. He opened the door and saw that the innkeeper was standing at the door with two big plates of meat.

"This is my secret barbecue, eat it while it's hot, and the taste will disappear when it's cold." He walked into the room and put the plate on the table.

Henry sniffed it and found that there was indeed a special fragrance. "It tastes really good, I can't wait to eat it now."

"I wish you a good appetite, I won't bother you any more." Said the boss and walked out and closed the door. Twenty minutes later, Henry had eaten up all the meat. He patted his stomach contentedly, and went back to bed to rest. I slept soundly this time, and was not disturbed by the noise outside until the next morning.

He opened his eyes and went to the window to look outside. There were carnival crowds everywhere on the street. They sang and danced while eating the free food and ale provided by the roadside, and they seemed very happy. Henry rubbed his face, and quickly cleaned up. Alustri's banquet started at noon, and there was not much time left.

After packing up, he opened the door and saw Amy wearing a golden dress and a hat with a wheat ear on her head. "Amy, are you going out to play with people outside all day?"

The girl was startled by Henry first, then she shook her hat with a smile. "Today is a harvest celebration. In order to thank the goddess of the earth, Chauntia, for giving this land a good harvest, everyone must express their gratitude."

Henry smiled and helped her straighten her hat. "Then you have fun today, I'm going to the Supreme Palace now, I guess I may not come back tonight." After speaking, he left the hotel and walked towards the city center.

Walking on the street, Henry found that there were too many people today, and it was almost noon when he came to the city center. Along the way, people kept inviting him to dance or sing, and the original 20-minute journey took more than an hour. The guard at the gate of the High Palace recognized him immediately. "Welcome, Earl. The banquet inside has already begun. If it is later, I am afraid I will miss Ms. Elastre's opening speech."

Henry sighed helplessly, and pointed to the enthusiastic crowd behind him. "I didn't expect that there would be so many people at this time. It took a lot of effort just to reject other people's invitations along the way."

The guard smiled understandingly. "After all, there is only this day every year to completely relax, and it is understandable for people to indulge. Please hurry in now, Captain Tenn is probably already waiting impatiently."

Henry smiled at him, and walked along the marble floor of the palace towards the banquet venue. After a few minutes, he found the place, which was densely packed with nobles and senior professionals in the city. Alustri was speaking on the stage in a gorgeous long dress. He silently found an inconspicuous corner to hide in. It didn't take long for Erastriol's speech to end. She lifted her skirt with a smile and walked off the podium, and then a burst of warm applause broke out from the audience.

Tenn took the opportunity to come to Henry and whispered, "Shut up, follow me." He led the way without looking back. Not long after, they came to a courtyard, where the supreme ruler of Silvermoon City was sitting quietly drinking wine. Elastre nodded at Ten, who bowed and turned to leave. Henry was a little strange, not knowing what kind of medicine this lady was selling in her gourd.

"You must know very well, why am I looking for you at this time?

Henry sat down and nodded. "Indeed, you always invite me to Silvermoon City from far away, just to participate in a celebration"

Elastre smiled and poured him a glass of wine. "At first, I just wanted to meet you, the lord who has risen rapidly recently, but now I think we can have a deeper cooperation."

"Silvermoon City is too far away from my territory, and I can't think of any need for us to cooperate." After speaking, Henry looked at her suspiciously.

Alustri took out a piece of paper and handed it over, and she pointed to the words on it with her finger. "Your territory has salt, weapons, armor, etc. that are in short supply here, while we have all kinds of rare metals, furs, and a large number of handicrafts. You only need to resell these goods and sell them to Baldur's Gate or Amn to make enough profits."

Henry looked carefully at the goods on the list and nodded. "If it's trade, there's no problem. When I go back, I'll ask someone to take care of it. The first batch of ships will leave at the beginning of spring tomorrow, and they will arrive in about a month."

"There is another thing I would like to ask for your help. According to the information provided by the Harper Alliance, the orcs near Sundabar have begun to gather on a large scale. I hope you can go there to help guard it. The surrounding area of ​​​​Silvermoon City has been very turbulent recently, and there is no way to mobilize other people for the time being." As he spoke, Alaszhu took out a copper-green gemstone. "This is a magic gem, and it is used as the fee for hiring you this time. It allows the wearer to add a sixth-level spell slot."

Henry thought about it for a while before agreeing. After all, we are hiding behind the city wall this time, and we can retreat at any time if the situation is not good. And if he read correctly, this should be a rare Io stone. This kind of treasure is rare in Faerun, and every time it appears, it will attract the attention of many people. After all, mages and warlocks cannot wear helmets, so headbands made of Io stone are especially precious. . )
