I have a shelter

Mr. Aldous's suggestion was very good. The market in Johannes was very lively. Wayne and others rarely had the opportunity to come here for a stroll because of the heavy daily tasks. They were very excited to come out today.

After instructing several veterans to take whistles and take the two big guys and several wolves in the team out for a stroll. Wayne led the rest of the people out of the south gate of the castle.

As soon as they went out, the sergeants saw the bustling crowd in the town. There was a square snow pile at each end of the street. The early residents had already set up sheds and prepared market stalls. The two teams were patrolled and maintained order under the leadership of the sergeant.

The snowflakes were often melted by the heat exhaled by the crowd before they fell to the ground.

It was already March, and it was actually spring. But Lord Anthony said that there would be a heavy snow in late April.

In terms of the situation in the valley, this was a bit strange. In the past, there were only a few snowfalls in winter. The freezing time was just over a month.

What did the scholars say?

This year may be the last spring. In the future, there may be no four seasons.

A large number of refugees came some time ago. The permanent population of the town is now larger than that of the previous Bianhe Town. 1,800 houses have occupied the last empty space in the town in the south.

I heard that there are many refugees in the south, and they were all taken in by the lords. Many of the natives in the south of the valley were also selected to live in the shelter. This means that the entire shelter has more than 3,000 residents, excluding the soldiers stationed in the castle. The number of legion soldiers, garrisons and knights is almost 1,000.

The castle is now unable to accommodate these people. The more than 300 soldiers of the garrison are stationed in the camp east of the castle. Those who can live in the castle and the parade ground are the most elite warriors.

After passing through the lively crowd, Wayne and others went to the tavern first and exchanged a gold lion for a bronze eagle, bronze star and copper coins.

For these soldiers who came to exchange change, the head of the prostitutes and the owner (mother) of the tavern were very happy. You know, no matter in the past or now, the most circulated is copper coins. But the most valuable is always gold.

However, after seeing that they took out a full seven gold lions and planned to exchange them for silver foxes. She pouted again. She said that part of them could be saved for the boys. Anyway, they were all regular customers, and the number would never be wrong.

Soldier Wayne didn't have so many thoughts. He thought it would be easy to lose it if he kept it on him. After asking his subordinates for their opinions, he generously kept part of it in the tavern.

After hearing the soldiers' decision, the prostitutes smiled and gave them a hot kiss.

However, it would be a lie to say that Miss Dana (the prostitute leader) lacked silver foxes. Even if George came here every month to take away a batch, the wealthy merchants in Gu Nan who lived here would contribute a handful every day.

Everyone wanted to stay here for a while, so although the tavern was expanded again and again, it was still crowded. In addition to the extremely high fees of the tavern, there are occasionally some limited purchase coupons that are said to be not only necessary to have a deep relationship to get, but also frighteningly expensive!

But everyone wants it, because only with limited purchase coupons in hand can you take the things you buy here out of the shelter!

In addition to the tavern being able to exchange silver for a small number of limited purchase coupons, the castle will also issue them. But the limited purchase coupons issued by the castle are given according to the materials sent to the shelter. And a caravan will not get too many limited purchase coupons.

This makes the limited purchase coupons in the tavern have a trend of being auctioned!

More and more people come and go in the shelter, so at the same time, it also brings a lot of labor and materials to the shelter.

At present, some people have begun to post tasks in the tavern-mostly some orders, and tasks such as group collection of materials. There are also a few combat and escort tasks. Occasionally, the shelter will also post some things that the soldiers are too busy to handle.

If you observe carefully, you will find that most of those who accept such combat tasks are a few groups of people. Each group has seven or eight people, and they enjoy a good reputation among the caravans. Mishan and Martin also knew them.

I don't know when they will name their small team and form a real mercenary group.

George is happy to see this. Because it can make the caravan safer to travel here, and there are also Martin's people among these people.

In addition, the merchants have gradually become accustomed to trading their materials here.

For this kind of material exchange between foreign merchants, the shelter does not restrict management. And it will also send people to be fair, so that merchants do not have to be suspicious of each other and are willing to do it here-in Madoc's plan, the future shelter will set up a trading center. Let all the merchants and goods in the entire valley shuttle back and forth here.

Although these goods may not all enter the hands of the shelter, they will make Johannes's circulation of goods and types more and more complete. Whether it is the shelter's acquisition, or in some critical times, tearing off their own skin and leaving them all here. It can solve great problems at critical times.

Every day, the group of people selected by Madoc and Martin will record the goods and various news coming and going.

The overall situation in the valley became clearer and clearer.

At the same time, there will be trouble. After all, there will always be businessmen who want to take advantage of the loopholes, and strangers from the east of the valley with crooked ideas.

At present, George is most concerned about the former. While the civil servants of the shelter were adjusting various measures, they were also scheming with those treacherous businessmen.

Now it is difficult to hit the market with large amounts of foreign gold coins. The civil servants of the shelter are working hard to circulate the things in the hands of those merchants to more civilians. Although no one is hoarding goods in large quantities yet, Maddock feels that this matter should be strategized in advance.

Regarding this matter, all the lords in the south were very cooperative. Although they all attach great importance to it, in their view, it is just a trivial matter - the power of the Sanctuary has become more and more powerful, and the status of these lords who are attached to the Sanctuary is getting stronger and stronger in their own territories. .

Therefore, things that were previously troublesome for wealthy households can now be made obedient to them with just one order.

After getting the change, Wayne planned to buy some meat and wine here. However, Miss Dana and the Orioles pushed her out. When they went out, they quietly told them to go to the market - the things there were much cheaper than in the tavern.

Indeed, as the Orioles said, not only were the goods here cheaper than in the tavern, but the dazzling variety also dazzled the soldiers.

The most popular ones are of course the mushrooms. Because they are not as easy to store as wheat, the mushrooms in the castle also yield a lot every month. Therefore, Lord Archon Yoneyama will only collect some from the residents every month, and the rest will be used by the residents themselves. This leaves residents with spare mushrooms to sell.

After more than a month, this is the second batch of new mushrooms.

Since people began to come to the territory to exchange goods, the residents began to expand their basements. The mushrooms placed on the wooden shelves were taken care of more and more rationally under the guidance of scholars.

The output has also increased significantly compared to the initial batch.

Wayne's friend told him not long ago that his home received four to five hundred kilograms of mushrooms this month!

These mushrooms alone are enough to feed his two younger brothers every month.

I heard that a few days ago, scholars have cultivated a new batch of bacteria called 'Pinococcus aureus'. Not only is the yield higher, the taste is also better.

However, this mushroom always reminded Wayne of a certain fungus growing in the tomb chamber.

Most of what the residents of the shelter brought out were home-grown things. In addition to mushrooms, residents with various skills also brought out many other goods - they collected flax and wood from Gunan merchants. , even silk, cotton, leather, animal sinew. They brought out pieces of cloth, clothes, shields, bows and arrows, and furniture.

The caravan guards would also pay craftsmen to help them sew clothes, repair leather armor, or buy them directly.

As for the wealthy households in Gunan, they would exchange all their stored grain, leather, wine and spices. In addition to these items, there are salt, bottles, linens, olives, cheese, honey, coal and other items on various stalls.

When picking these things, Wayne couldn't help but feel a little sad. My current job is related to coal - for money and a better life, the residents organized together like crazy. Even in heavy snow days, some people would follow the team and spontaneously go to the mountains to dig coal. Cut down trees and open rocks.

People in shelters often go too.

Of course, in addition to these things, there are many meat products. These are all things hunted in the mountains. Hunters often keep a little for themselves, and take the rest to shelters in exchange for mushrooms, wheat and other supplies.

Now, many inventories in the homes of wealthy households have flowed into the hands of residents in the north and south.

There is a difference between the attire of the Sanctuary Guards and the Legionnaires. The garrison wears a double-layered mail coat. The legionnaire's storm armor is a real full-body armor - and it's also engraved with divine patterns!

This makes even the residents of the shelter often mistakenly think that the legionnaires are knights. The residents of Gunan regarded them all as the Paladins stationed here - their relatives who knew their identities all lived in the shelter. And when they talked to outsiders, the words that spread were not the Paladins, but the Templars!

The sergeants, who rarely appeared in the market, soon received a pair of eyes.

"These are the paladins who wiped out the necropolis!" "The thing on the shirt must be the heads of giants and demons!" "I heard it is hung in the cathedral!" "As expected of the cathedral. What you are wearing is more beautiful than the armor passed down from our ancestors!"

The soldiers' faces were slightly red, but they couldn't help but puff up their chests.

As he walked out of the market, the sharp-eyed ensign poked Wayne. Wayne followed his eyes and saw the Lord and Miss Lorna behind him!

The two of them were in front of a stall, holding a black velvet piece and bargaining with the merchant.

The lord's bearskin coat seems to have been bitten by dogs and has lost some hair. But this velvet seems to be for Lorna.

Wayne's heart couldn't help but beat a few times when he saw several red-robed knights behind the lord. But no one was wearing armor today. No outsiders recognized them.

Seeing that the lord saw him and smiled and nodded at him, Wayne was so excited that he almost raised his hand to salute. However, he was quickly pulled by the lieutenant and walked out of the crowd.

"What are you doing!" Wayne stared, a little unhappy.

"Boss, we have almost picked up the things, let's get on the road quickly." The lieutenant felt a little helpless.

"By the way, how much did we spend in total?"

"The change is not used up, which is less than one golden lion-the meat of the two big guys was spent half. We have dry food for thirty people, and we only bought some meat and wine to keep warm at night. It's enough for seven or eight days." The lieutenant said while handing the purchase limit coupon in his hand to the guard guarding the entrance of the market for inspection.

"Prices are becoming more and more stable"

Looking at the Dawn Cathedral illuminated by the golden morning light and the rolling fog wall in the distance behind it. Wayne placed his arm on his chest and swore silently. Leading the soldiers to walk neatly into the distance.

"Raise the flag, lieutenant."
