In the blink of an eye, another week has passed.
When it comes to the study of steam engines, Zhang Feng can't be said to have mastered it to perfection, but he can barely be considered an expert.
Another five steam engines have been built, two of which are placed in Blackrock Forest for mining, and two are placed outside Red Leaf City to build new city walls.
As for the remaining one, it was requisitioned by Zhang Feng to build his own exclusive car.
Although he already has Panda and Xiaobai, they all have their own limitations. At least in terms of comfort, it is still more comfortable to stay in the car.
In particular, the car designed by Zhang Feng has a large interior space, which is very convenient for various activities inside.
In a four-story factory, two steam cars were parked next to each other.
But I didn't expect to meet him again here!

Erica looked at Zhang Feng staring at her with a strange look in his eyes, and she was a little at a loss.
Although the snow was half a person deep, it was nothing to them.
Except for Shu Daqiang who was quite surprised by this situation, no one else showed any special expression. After all, they had seen this kind of thing many times.
Moreover, they also have a knight named Abe, which serves as another layer of insurance.
The soldier leading the way trotted over and reported to the Lord of Silver Pine City.
Although the second floor has the same structure as the first floor, it is brightly lit because of the many torches.
"nice."
"Finally we're home!"
Everyone also hurriedly saluted.
Shu Daqiang and his men have very important trade missions. This city should be similar to Hongye City, or perhaps a little better than Hongye City. After all, their city is so big.
Marlowe nodded.
"Mrs. Caroline and Mrs. Zhang Xiaotang are in Black Rock Forest, teaching them how to use the steam engine. Mrs. Amy is riding Little White and practicing with the wolf cavalry in the wild. I'm not sure about Mrs. Tina, but she seems to be with Mrs. Caroline and the others."
Following the sound, Marlowe saw a familiar face.
"You'll know when you get in."
"Isn't the snow here left over from half a month ago?"
The caravan led by Marlowe finally arrived at a big city.
Although it has been snowing heavily since the past few days, it does not affect the driving of the car.
Hearing that this was Eugene's last drink, Benson's expression softened a lot. He still said with some disbelief, "I have drunk all kinds of wine. I have even drunk the three great wines of the royal capital. Your wine, huh!"
"Is that so?"
"More than a hundred pieces! No more, no more!"
Isn't this freckled woman the former city councilor of Red Leaf City, Marcy? "It's really you, Marlowe!"
They had been walking for such a long time that they only passed through two small cities.
"Why do we have to shovel it away? It will snow again even if we shovel it away. Look, it snowed again today. We will clear it up after winter."
After all, this is a big city with its own heritage. Soldiers like Marlowe are not many to them, and they don't have to worry about the other side's ill intentions.
The snow in the other world either doesn't fall at all, or when it does, it's heavy snow accompanied by biting cold wind. People without some experience and good physical fitness will probably never come back once they go out.
"No, no, no, it's not that, it's Red Leaf City!"
Fortunately, as soon as they arrived at the gate of Silver Pine City, someone saw them and reported it. When Marlowe and his companions walked to the city gate, someone asked them questions, and Marlowe naturally introduced himself.
Although the environment here is not very good, it's still okay to make do with it.
Anne's eyebrows were twisted into knots.
"Stingy? Do you know how scarce this wine is? The wine is limited in Hongye City. This is my last pot of wine. Once I drink it, it will be gone!"
Shu Daqiang was a little confused. This was different from what he saw in Hongye City.
Shu Daqiang looked at the city not far away and asked curiously.
The soldier shook his head.
Suddenly, someone patted his shoulder, and Eugene came to his senses and turned around to look.
Eugene took out a small iron wine flask from his arms and poured a little into Benson's cup.
After hearing what Eugene said, Benson became more curious.
"Master, is this enough strength?"
"Is this true? This dress is not cheap, I have never seen this kind of fabric before. This style can only be cut by a master tailor..."
"Uh, are you kidding me? Isn't Silver Pine City the most prosperous city in the north?"
"Unpalatable? Hey, tell me the truth. Have you gone somewhere to make a fortune? I haven't seen you for such a long time, and you think dark beer tastes unpalatable? Could it be that you've been drinking spiced red wine all the time?"
In order for Benson to believe what he said and spread the news, he had to start giving examples.
After accepting the benefits given by some people, Marlowe led everyone to move forward.
Because this car is too similar to the one she saw before, but that car is not the golden car. Although she doesn't know how Zhang Feng did it, she is sure that Zhang Feng is inside.
"Go forward and you will see the hotel. It is all over the place. The most luxurious hotel in our Silver Pine City is also here. You can go directly there. I will go and report to the city lord."
Really sold?
"I don't believe it!"
After returning home, the merchants in Silver Pine City didn't want to stop for a moment and left for the tavern, a place with a lot of people.
When Red Leaf City was in the most difficult time, these people chose to leave. Although Marlowe could not judge anything, from the moment they left, these people were no longer his friends.
"Since you can't taste it, forget it. I won't sell it to you. I believe there are so many people in the tavern, someone will definitely like it!"
After walking in the snow for a while, all the people in the caravan came in. Ma Luo seemed to see Shu Daqiang's doubts and explained:
As soon as Erica went out, she heard clanging sounds. She turned around in confusion and saw an extremely dazzling steam car slowly stopping in front of her.
In the end, feeling sorry for his copper coins, Eugene closed his eyes and swallowed the whole glass of dark beer in one gulp.
Right in front of him was a slightly plump man wearing a brightly colored robe and a colorful hat on his head. Anyone who could wear clothes of this color must be the city lord.
"But it smells so bad in here!"
The difference between a silver coin and a gold coin is a hundred times!
He turned to Erica and said, "Are they all in the castle?"
Only after leaving Hongye City did I realize how good it is.
Soon, news came that this was the city lord's special car! After hearing this news, everyone suddenly realized what was going on.
"This is not Red Leaf City. There won't be another Red Leaf Hotel."
Benson was a little confused looking at the clothes Eugene handed over.
Shu Daqiang was a little confused.
"Lord City Lord, the person has been brought here."
"What, a silver coin!"
"Yes, Master!"
"Don't worry, I definitely won't."
Eugene originally thought that Benson really didn't taste it, but when he saw his eyes looking at his wine jug from time to time, Eugene instantly realized that he was lying!
"Forget it if you want it. I'll sell it to someone else later. By the way, I remember you like drinking a lot. I have some good wine from Hongye City here. Do you want some?"
Seems to make sense? What the hell does it make sense? So much snow blocked the road, what's the difference between inside the city and outside the city? Shu Daqiang was speechless. He was about to say something else, but was interrupted by Ma Luo.
Because Marlowe is a knight, he can wear knight armor at any time, but he definitely cannot bring in a knight sword.
After the gate was fully opened, Marlowe led the team into Silverpine City.
Suddenly, Benson's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.
"If I sell it to you, how much are you willing to pay?"
As for the interior of the car, it is as luxurious as its exterior. It adopts a separate cab mode. The cab is very large, more than enough to seat four people, and can also hold a lot of things, such as weapons and equipment.
"Yeah, not bad, not bad, comfortable!"
He is a member of the Red Leaf Business Alliance. Although the protection along the way is free, as a businessman, he cannot always take advantage. When it is time to pay, he must spend some money.
There were some people sitting next to him, probably the city lord's retainers, and they were whispering something to the city lord.
This piece of clothing is not an ordinary item in terms of quality or style. It is impossible for it to be priced so low. It is impossible for anyone to violate the laws of the market!
"Here, one hand for the money, the other for the goods!"
Benson is Eugene's business partner, and his ability is similar to Eugene's.
Moreover, these cars are equipped with a lot of bulletproof glass, which is also not a product of this world.
Shu Daqiang looked at the thick snow in front of him and said:
The other city lord didn't believe Ma Luo's claim that they were from Hongye City and refused to let him in. After all, Ma Luo and his men were fully armed, and life was difficult now, so the city lord was afraid that they were here to rob.
Although he was not very lucky and did not become a member of the Red Leaf Business Alliance, he gained a lot this time. He spent almost all the gold coins he had in exchange for many things that were not available in Silver Pine City.
"Thank you!"
The soldier stretched out his hand and pointed to a large area of snow in front of him.
"let's go."
Zhang Feng picked up something that looked like a phone and told the driver to go for a drive outside the city. He wanted to feel the car carefully to see if there was anything wrong with it.
…
Marlowe counted the number of people and made sure that there were no omissions. He then paid each person a week's fee, which made the boss very excited. This was a big customer! They didn't know when the snow would stop. If it kept snowing, they would have to stay in Silver Pine City for a while.
"Sell it to me, I'll pay a gold coin!"
After all, they were once colleagues, so he felt a little sad.
Before Zhang Feng could say anything, he saw Erica saying she was hot as soon as she got in the car, and even wanted to take off her clothes? He always wondered if this was a hint from Erica.
Listening to the boss's words, Marlowe felt that this was the right place.
The inn owner soon noticed so many people coming. He trotted over and said with a smile on his face: "Ladies and gentlemen, do you want to stay in the hotel? We have the best rooms in Silver Pine City!"
But today, it seems their luck has run out, as it is snowing again.
At Eugene's urging, Benson changed into new clothes without thinking.
"How is it? This wine tastes good, right? Do you want it? If you do, I'll sell it to you at a low price!"
On the table, the oil lamps emitted a faint fragrance, which diluted a lot of the strange smell in the castle.
Shu Daqiang was very much looking forward to this city. After walking for so long, he finally saw a decent city. From the outside, Yinsong City looked much bigger than Hongye City.
"But it's not like this in our Red Leaf City, right?"
"Don't worry, there will be absolutely no problem!"
As a beast ratman, Shu Daqiang was very vigilant and subconsciously thought of the worst.
Some silver coins were handed to the soldiers, and they did not refuse.
Someone spoke up, he was a former knight of Red Leaf City and a former colleague of Marlowe.
Benson looked a little embarrassed.
"Master? What's wrong?"
"What's wrong with you guys?"
"Why don't you shovel the snow away?"
This earl's territory is really shitty!
In Hongye City, he basically did not see any snow on the road. No matter how heavy it snowed on the first day, when he woke up the next morning, the road was clean.
"If I remember correctly, it didn't snow before. Didn't this snow just fall?"
Although Yinsong City is very large, its City Lord's Mansion is similar to that of Hongye City, or it can be said that the buildings in this world are all similar.
"Uh... this?"
"You have more? How many?"
I arrived at the castle gate without any obstructions and just saw Erica coming out of the castle.
Shu Daqiang was a little confused when he saw that no one was talking, but the city gate in front of him had already started to open, so he didn't think about it anymore and decided to go in first.
Although he felt that the title did not mean anything, he still felt a little unhappy.
"Only the city lord can have this strength!"
"Yes, Master!"
Seeing that Benson was a little angry, Eugene hurried to explain.
This car was strengthened from the inside out by Zhang Feng using the "Turning Stone into Gold" technique. Although it cost a lot of gold coins, the quality is absolutely impeccable!
After being informed at the door, everyone followed the soldiers inside.
Looking at the sign that said "Luxury Hotel", Marlowe was a little unsure. He didn't know whether the most luxurious hotel the soldier had just mentioned was luxurious inside the hotel or just its name.
When this golden car came out, the sensation it caused was no less than that of the previous "Red Leaf Steam No. 1".
Zhang Feng didn't bother to correct Erica's mistake of calling all these people Madam, he just spoke directly.
The piece of clothing just now could earn a hundred times the price, he didn't believe that these wines couldn't earn any! "Uh... I just drank too fast and didn't taste it, how about you pour some more for me to taste?"
After the soldiers left, Marlowe said:
The city lord, who had been silent the whole time, smiled and tried to smooth things over.
The soldier was confused and felt that this person was so strange!
Benson felt unhappy as he saw that there was only a little bit of wine in his huge cup.
After walking for such a long time, they were finally relieved when they finally reached the door.
"It's okay. Maybe it's just an ordinary banquet. He must have heard about the Red Leaf City and wanted to ask about it."
Touching the very smooth fabric on his body and looking at Eugene with a happy face, Benson said in disbelief:
"That means there's no one in the castle."
People who buy wine are not so stingy. At least they let you try a glass.
"Hey, Eugene, why are you so stingy!"
It is only slightly stronger than the previous Red Leaf City.
Eugene's example is still there. The merchants from Silver Pine City who came back from Red Leaf City were all eager to show off their gains. They risked their lives to return to Silver Pine City from Red Leaf City. Why? It was for this moment! It was to earn ten times, or even a hundred times, the profits!
As they entered the castle, many people shuddered.
Benson was speechless.
The group walked in the snow for a while. There were no buildings near the city gate, nor any road signs. In addition, the snow and wind were very strong. If it weren't for the merchants from Silver Pine City leading the way, they might have gotten lost.
Eugene whispered in Benson's ear:
Zhang Feng had already started training drivers when the steam engine was manufactured. After so many days of study, these people have learned almost everything.
He wanted to squeeze in, but because there were no partitions here, the price of drinking was the same everywhere, so everyone was squeezed in.
Compared to the outside, although there was no wind or snow inside the castle, it was colder and more damp, and there was also a rotten and smelly smell.
Benson was still very curious about why Eugene had disappeared for such a long time. Although it was dark in the pub, Benson could still clearly see that Eugene was wearing clothes that were completely different from him.
Abe was helpless.
They may not have been to Silver Pine City, but they know that Red Leaf City is definitely not comparable to Silver Pine City. In their hearts, Red Leaf City is a city comparable to Buck Capital!
After turning on the mechanism, Zhang Feng half-reclinated his seat.
This is the steam car that Zhang Feng named "Red Leaf Steam No. 1" a week ago. However, it has changed a lot compared to a week ago. The most obvious change is that it is bigger!
Marlowe didn't refuse.
But fortunately, the cost here is much lower than that of Hongye Hotel. If you stay at Hongye Hotel for one day, you can live here for three months.
Everyone was not sure. This shiny thing did look like gold, but who could be so extravagant as to use gold to build a car? How many gold coins would it cost? "And there are so many crystals on this car! How extravagant!"
In the past, Marlowe treated them all as friends.
"The Lord of Silver Pine City is inviting us to a banquet?"
Even if Eugene were given a day, he wouldn't be able to finish talking about the clothes in Red Leaf City. Now was obviously not the time to go on for a long speech.
"So it's the city lord's special car. That's fine!"
After hearing the soldier's report, the city lord raised his head and looked at Marlowe and his party. He stood up with a smile on his face: "Welcome everyone to Silver Pine City. I am Earl Langman, the city lord of Silver Pine City. To express my welcome, I have prepared some food. I hope you don't mind."
Of course, its city wall is not as high as that of Hongye City. It is estimated that it is only half of the city wall of Hongye City at most. But compared with the previous two small towns that are like villages, it is already very good.
No one would take such a risk before being sure of their own strength.
That dress looks much prettier than mine! "Spiced wine? Oh, I don't drink that stuff, it's expensive and tastes bad!"
"Wine?"
Marlowe shook his head.
Except for Marlowe, everyone here received an invitation.
Some people saw this golden car on the road and were a little bit unbelievable.
"It's okay, come here."
"Hmm—"
The rear passenger area is covered with various precious furs, and has luxurious and soft seats, soft couches, a folding dining table, and even electric lights and a small refrigerator.
He even felt that he would not lose money on the two gold coins, but he was a businessman after all, and it was impossible for him to tell the price right away. At most, he could talk about it later! Moreover, he thought that this was just Eugene's casual talk. If he had such a beautiful dress, he would definitely not sell it. After all, one or two gold coins were nothing to him.
But what Benson didn't expect was that as soon as he finished speaking, Eugene immediately took off his coat.
“That should be it.”
"Everyone, please!"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
“Huh~”
But everything is afraid of comparison. When compared with Hongye City, the gap is obvious.
Eugene raised the corner of his mouth and pulled Benson to the corner to discuss the buying and selling of wine.
As soon as we entered the door, we smelled a strong musty smell.
"Wow! This car is made of gold!"
As soon as she came in, Erica felt particularly warm, even warmer than in the castle. She had just put on thick clothes and suddenly felt a little hot.
Its appearance is the same as that of "Red Leaf Steam No. 1", both of which have a strong steampunk style, but it is more refined, and the whole car is shiny golden!
The soldier in front said: "Everyone, do you want to find a place to live first, or..."
Erica came and knelt behind Zhang Feng, then supported Zhang Feng's forehead and let him lean on her chest, her movements very gently.
"Everyone, let's go to the front and take a look."
But Hongye City was not a place for him to stay for long, after all, his wallet could not support it.
As he spoke, Benson tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp.
This is the final destination for some merchants.
Erica naturally would not refuse Zhang Feng's order. Zhang Feng opened the car door and Erica stepped on the pedal to get in.
Eugene came to the tavern. Although he was dressed warmly, it was still a little cold in the tavern.
"As for where I went? Hehe, you may not believe it, but I went to the most prosperous city in the north of our Buck Kingdom!"
I have to say that Zhang Feng put a lot of effort into the design of this place. For the slightly noisy steam engine, Zhang Feng used a lot of sound insulation materials, so it was acceptable for him to sit inside.
"We are partners, how could I lie to you? Really, I really went to Hongye City. You don't know how prosperous Hongye City is!"
Judging from the map, they were already halfway through their journey.
"Greetings, Lord City Lord!"
Shu Daqiang said to the soldiers:
After all, the destructive power of a knight really cannot be measured by common sense, and the strength of knights also varies greatly. Marlowe is one of the more powerful knights, and this does not include the weapons and equipment given to him by Zhang Feng.
Because of his helmet, the city lord and the others did not see Malu's face. When Malu sat down and took off his helmet, a cry of surprise was heard.
The word "tattered" means literal meaning. Shu Daqiang can even see the snow inside through the hole in the roof.
…
"Um?"
"No, we can talk about it later! I'm willing to pay a high price for it!"
"No, this is the cheapest piece of clothing I have, it only costs one silver coin."
"Abe, I don't want to live here..."
"Probably not."
But once we got to the second floor, things felt much better.
"That's because this isn't Red Leaf City."
"Benson, long time no see!"
Today's Silver Pine City is destined to be restless.
“…”
Beep beep beep, the golden car left Red Leaf City amid the envious gazes of passers-by.
"Hurry up and take off your clothes, I'm freezing!"
Erica bit her lip and pressed her whole body against Zhang Feng.
There was no road directly in front of him.
"Yes, we want to stay in a hotel. Do you have enough rooms for so many people?"
However, as soon as he entered the door, Shu Daqiang was stumped by the situation in front of him.
The soldier pointed forward.
What's wrong with Eugene? Why is he so arrogant? Is he really rich?
Finally, I got out! Shu Daqiang panted. He saw the house in front of him. The road was finally cleared. Although it was only a small road, it was much better than before.
Benson spoke honestly.
Benson touched the fabric of the clothes. The soft and smooth feel made him reluctant to let it go.
Count Langman made a gesture of invitation and everyone took a seat.
There was no choice but to order a glass of dark beer with some depression.
After hearing what Knight Marlowe said, Shu Daqiang seemed to understand something.
But at least they have arrived at a city of considerable size, and they can take a break for a while.
The electricity in the car comes from a small generator, which Zhang Feng brought from Hyundai.
Someone in the caravan breathed a sigh of relief.
Benson still didn't believe it. The prices of clothes like these were generally formed slowly by market rules. Even if they were businessmen, they couldn't set prices arbitrarily, otherwise it would easily collapse.
"I really want to see what it looks like inside..."
Zhang Feng found a temporary driver and asked him to drive the golden car to the gate of the castle.
Especially when she saw that Zhang Feng was wearing very thin clothes, she subconsciously wanted to take off her coat.
Eugene gave a profiteer's smile.
Even from a modern perspective, this car can be considered absolutely luxurious both in appearance and interior. Its only shortcoming is that it takes a little bit of time to start. After all, it is still a steam car, and it is already very good to be able to be made into what it is today.
Of course, "small car" is relative. In fact, it is not small. According to Zhang Feng's body shape, this is completely a small RV.
The knight felt a little embarrassed when he didn't get a reply from Marlowe.
After all, he has been following Zhang Feng for such a long time, and he has gained a lot of experience and ambition. Although he doesn't care about these people, he still feels a little unhappy.
As for Marlowe's strength, it was clear. It could be said that the knights who left might not be Marlowe's opponents! He was very sorry about this. Red Leaf City was beyond saving. Marlowe could only waste time and life there. When the heavy snow came, he even guessed that Marlowe might have been defeated by nature.
But when Shu Daqiang expressed his thoughts, everyone, including Malo, looked at him in confusion.
Eugene looked mysterious.
Benson exclaimed a little loudly. Seeing that everyone around him was looking at him, Benson quickly whispered: "Impossible, from my perspective of doing business for so many years, this set of clothes definitely cannot be worth a silver coin, at least a gold coin!"
Soon, everyone saw a shabby hotel.
Marlowe frowned and rejected the rat orcs' idea, because their soldiers seemed to be only responsible for protection and did not carry anything valuable. The other party probably did not know that he had priceless goods in his hands.
After asking other businessmen for their opinions, everyone felt that it would be better to go. After all, this was on someone else's territory, and it would not be good if they did not go in the face of the invitation from the owner of this city.
Shu Daqiang: “…”
"I bought this dress in Red Leaf City!"
The two clinked glasses, and Eugene's face wrinkled as he drank the somewhat hard-to-swallow dark beer.
Eugene's expression was a little exaggerated, making Benson confused as to whether what he said was true or false.
Finally, it was the merchants in this small town who came forward to prove it. When the city lord heard that there was such a city, he was immediately astonished. He quickly invited Marlowe and his friends to go in and rest, but Marlowe ignored him and camped outside.
Although the tavern in Silver Pine City had no heating, it was still relatively warm because there were so many people there.
"Come and give me a massage."
Although this is just a small detail, the truth lies in the details.
Benson thought he only had one piece of this clothing. Although he felt that it would not be a loss even if he bought more than a hundred pieces, but looking at Eugene's happy face, Benson really didn't want to spend the money.
Hearing that it was something from Red Leaf City again, Benson was somewhat expectant. He licked his lips and said:
It was just a little too bright, and it hurt Zhang Feng's eyes a little.
While Marlowe and the others were resting in the inn, news about the Red Leaf City caravan had slowly spread in Silver Pine City.
"This... should be it, right?"
Eugene's eyes suddenly turned and he decided to change his approach.
"good."
Zhang Feng likes Erica’s understanding. With just one look from her, she knows what to do.
"ah?"
In other words, in front of them was a field of snow half a person's height.
At noon, after everyone packed up and gave instructions to their servants, a group of more than a dozen people, led by a soldier, braved the wind and snow to the City Lord's Mansion.
Shu Daqiang was very surprised. How could so much rain fall in such a short time?
Although Marlowe had no intention of doing business in this city, whether he went or not was one thing, and being turned away was another.
Among all of them, probably only the orc Shu Daqiang doesn't know much about human cities. The others are all businessmen who have traveled far and wide and seen a lot. The reason why they like Hongye City so much and are even willing to settle down in Hongye City permanently is because they know how big the gap is between ordinary cities and Hongye City!
"How could that be false?"
After sending the envoy away, Marlowe was a little confused as to why the lord of Silver Pine City wanted to host a banquet for them.
"baffling!"
I hope the lord of this city won't be so rude.
Because it snowed heavily today, there were not many people on the road. The few people who saw Marlowe were very surprised. They didn't understand why a caravan came to their Silver Pine City in such a snowy day. This was really rare! "Is this their most luxurious hotel?"
"Hehe, I bought so many things in Red Leaf City this time, I think I can make a lot of money!"
After waiting for the boss to take them to this so-called most luxurious room, Shu Daqiang was speechless.
"Give it to me and let me see it. If I'm good, I want it!"
The lobby on the second floor has now been transformed into a banquet hall - in fact, not much has been changed, just adding a large round table.
"What's wrong with you?"
"I heard that a caravan had arrived from Red Leaf City, and I was wondering who could travel such a long distance in such severe weather. It turns out that it was you, Marlowe, who was leading the team! That's not surprising!"
"Greetings, Lord Earl!"
When Erica saw the car, the first person she thought of was Zhang Feng.
Eugene also knew that the other party would not believe him just by his words. After all, he himself felt that it was unreal.
Seeing Eugene about to leave, Benson couldn't pretend anymore and he quickly grabbed Eugene.
Hearing that these people came from Hongye City, many people on the city wall looked at each other in confusion. They had never heard of this city.
…
"Let's not talk about Red Leaf City for now. Do you think my clothes look good?"
In the crowd, Annie covered her nose and complained to Abe:
How can you get good things without someone to share them with?
"Then come and feel it with me, get in the car."
Benson thought he was sick and asked with some concern.
In comparison, there is a mini car next to it.
"Of course, the wine there is much better than that in Silver Pine City!"
"Everyone, please."
"Owner?"
"Not many, only about a hundred pieces. If you want all of them, I'll give you a 10% discount!"
This environment is not even as good as the rooms of ordinary civilians in Hongye City! Not to mention compared with Hongye Hotel.
Erica also participated in the production of this car, but this was the first time she saw the final product.
"Master~"
"Haha, so we are all acquaintances. That's great, let's eat and chat at the same time!"
"Marlowe? It's you!"
The first floor was for servants and livestock, while the second floor and above were the residences of the city lord.
Erica knew who "they" referred to, and she quickly replied:
Their trip was quite smooth. It hadn't snowed since they left Hongye City. They had passed through two cities in total, and this was the third city.
"Is this the Silver Pine City, which is said to be the largest in the northern part of the Buck Kingdom?"
"Nothing is impossible. I won't explain so much to you. When you see it, you will know."
Fortunately, some of the merchants in the caravan had their final destination here, and they knew the soldiers guarding the city. After communicating and confirming their identities, they opened the city gate.
A merchant handed over a money bag and said goodbye to Marlowe.
The exaggerated front end, front shovel, huge chimney, exposed rivets and gears, and the carriage with amazing capacity...a violent aesthetic of steampunk comes to the fore.
Someone else spoke, and Marlowe turned his head and saw that there were several people here who were his acquaintances.
"Let's make it clear first, we can't raise the price maliciously!"
"It's okay, I just think this wine is too hard to drink!"
Eugene felt embarrassed. It was not that he didn't want to buy those more expensive clothes, but he had no money. Before the clothing store opened, he had already spent most of his gold coins.
"Most lords don't shovel the snow in their cities in winter, because there is no way to shovel all the snow. They only shovel part of it, and wait for the snow to melt for other less important places."
Sure enough, Zhang Feng rolled down the car window.
"Very good, but please come closer."
Although the accumulated snow did not cause him any difficulty, he still felt uncomfortable with the experience of being in the city.
He didn't even want to come back.
"Do you want more? One gold coin per piece, no bargaining!"
“…”
"Is there some conspiracy?"
It was so huge that it almost reached the ceiling.
"Marcie?"
Benson spoke without thinking.
Looking at the two big toys in front of him, Zhang Feng was eager to try them out.
If the mayor really had some ill intentions, he could have just hosted a banquet for the merchants in the hotel instead of inviting me.
Eugene is a businessman from Silver Pine City. Because of the heavy snow, he had no choice but to take shelter in Red Leaf City. However, he did not expect that Red Leaf City was such a magical city.
Zhang Feng waved his hand, Erica quickly put her coat away, took off her shoes, and knelt down obediently beside Zhang Feng's legs.
Shu Daqiang was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the city lord was actually an earl. He remembered that Lord Zhang Feng was only a baron.
