Lord of Secrets - Chapter 80 79. Golden Feather Street
Ubemo planned to first reach the border town of Ia in Feiens, then hire a carriage to Xisong, and then take a steam train from Xisong to Lierli.
Ubemo didn’t care much about the identity issue. The Kingdom of Yuri was almost divided into many large and small forces, and there might be annexation battles every few days, and there was almost no ability to check the identity.
However, he also planned to change his name and appearance. After all, Medley and Buches had seen his current appearance. Ubemo suddenly thought of what he had said to Horus before, and then muttered embarrassedly:
“Wait until Lierli, I will no longer be Belmore. If you can’t find me, I won’t ask you to pay me back.”
Ubemo immediately hired a carriage to Xisong, which took about half a day.
After that, he applied for an identity certificate and took a steam train directly to Lierli. However, these steam trains were relatively old and the roads were a bit tortuous. When he arrived in Lierli, it was already Friday night, August 10.
This was the first time that Ubermo had experienced such a long and boring journey, but it was finally over.
“Sir, please provide your ID and register your information!” The waiter of the Lili White Hotel looked at the young man in front of him with golden hair and golden eyes, a face as sharp as a knife, sharp edges and corners, slightly strong, and a sharp temperament, and then said in Yuri language.
Before Samovi died, as the prince of the Feroza Empire, he had to master various languages, and he also needed to use these languages in order to pursue history.
“Amon Ra Osiris!” The waiter repeated it, and then said, “Is that the name?”
Ubermo’s mouth curled up slightly, and then he replied, “Yes!”
“Room 109, your key!” said the waiter.
Taking the key, Ubermo came to Room 109 on the second floor with his suitcase. He lay on the bed and began to think about the next move. Every step needs to be repeatedly pondered and carefully considered.
First, by infiltrating the Lierli as a treasure hunter, you can exchange treasures for corresponding information, which can be news about ruins, other sealed objects, or even some inside information. The second step is to provide treasure hunting services to some nobles in the Lierli when your reputation is big enough, responsible for ruins exploration, tomb robbing, etc., so as to gain a foothold in the upper echelons. The last step is to increase the collection of intelligence and find clues about Buches and Medley.
But this matter is destined to take a lot of time. After all, the southern continent is too chaotic, with a mixture of dragons and snakes, too much information and too messy, it is difficult to find them.
Even if “spying” can find the answer from it, with the lesson of the last time, Ubermo is not too convinced. Moreover, Medley has the sealed object “Lyanna’s Veil”, which usually has a hint of anti-divination characteristics, and he is already a demigod.
As for Buches, who has the god of death, this cannot be directly found out by “spying”, but may be misled.
So the ability of “spying” should be used with caution.
Moreover, Yuri may be just the first stop. If there is no harvest, he will even have to go to Baimon, Dark Night and Beliye later.
But Ubemo was not in a hurry. He consumed the secret medicine and promoted his life position. This was a necessary process.
Ubemo fell asleep slowly.
…
On the morning of August 11, the White Hotel.
After washing and eating breakfast, Ubemo walked out of the room energetically, went to the first floor, walked to the front desk waiter, handed over 1 Beli, and then asked:
“Do you know where there is a store for sale recently? A bigger one with better security.”
In the Kingdom of Yuri, the currency is also paper money, but most nobles prefer to use gold or silver coins.
1 Beli of paper money is equal to 100 Beli, which is equal to 400 Beli, and 5 Beli is about equal to 1 gold pound of Feroza, which is 1 gold coin of Yuri.
This is also the reason why many people are willing to come to the South Road with great difficulty. For people in the North Continent, things are extremely cheap, so they buy them in large quantities and then transport them back to the North Continent to make high profits. Or bring some handicrafts and sell them to nobles, or pan for gold, mine, look for relics, and rob ancient tombs.
Of course, most of them failed, either because of pirates or natural disasters, and eventually died.
“That is Jinyu Street. There is a house for sale. It is close to the noble district. The area is quite large, about 10 acres, but the price is too high. It needs 5,000 berries.” The waiter thought for a while and then said.
Too cheap! In the capital of the Kingdom of Yuri, a house of 10 acres only costs about 1,000 pounds… Ubermo sighed and said, “What I want is a storefront!”
“Sir, the front half of this house is a three-story Claye wooden house, which can be used as a storefront, and there is a lawn and villa behind it.” The waiter explained.
The Kingdom of Yuri has been in conflict for many years, resulting in frequent damage to concrete residential buildings, which are prone to collapse, and people’s lives are often threatened. It is extremely costly and labor-intensive to repair. Therefore, concrete houses gradually faded out of people’s sight, except for some safe places, such as the royal palace or the noble district. Most people have re-adopted the old techniques to build houses out of kraye wood, a wood that is very tough and resistant to fire. The white hotel where Ubemo now lives is a wooden house.
Ubemo nodded, then went back to the room, picked up the suitcase and walked out of the White Hotel, recalling the information in his mind. Jinyu Street is close to the noble district. It is to the west of the noble district, so it is easy to enter the circle of nobles. Moreover, there are dense people coming and going in the west, so it is easy to get information.
Having made a decision, he took a carriage to Jinyu Street. Unlike Vimo Frey, Lierli Street is extremely noisy, and the buildings are not built reasonably, resulting in twists and turns on the street, and some places are extremely narrow. The most important point is that there is no reasonable planning of the direction of travel, which may lead to a group of people blocking the way and unable to move forward.
This is also the sequelae of the war. The royal family has no energy to take care of these things. Of course, Ubemo said that he is not responsible for this.
Moreover, it was the countries of the southern continent who were dazzled by the items brought by the Storm Church, and then they had been planning for a long time and invaded the northern continent with the support of the Storm Church. Feroza Dires Bay was their initial landing place.
The streets here are relatively spacious and the people are not so dense, but the people are dense again every other street.
After giving the coachman 20 bei, Ubemo looked at the wooden house in front of him. It was dark brown and very smooth. It was painted with another plant secretion lotion. There was a wooden board hanging on it, which read:
“If you are interested in selling, please knock on the door!”
Ubemo knocked on the wooden door a few times, and the sound was unusually crisp.
Soon, someone came out to open the door.
This was a slightly mature man with slightly curly hair and dark skin, which was a common feature of the southern continent. However, there were also quite a few people with lighter skin color. This was the descendants of some people who moved to the southern continent during the historical period of colonization, or the descendants of intermarriage with the natives. Of course, most people in the Dark Night Empire also tend to have yellow skin color.
“Hello! What can I do for you?” The other party said with a unique accent, which sounded a little nasal.
“I want to buy this house!” Ubemo said directly.
The other party took a look at the silk dress on Ubemo’s body, and then said: “This house is not cheap.”
“How much?” Ubemo asked.
“5,000 berries! I’m going to leave, so it’s cheaper.” The other party said.
Ubemo immediately said, “Can I take a look?”
“Of course!” The other party replied, then turned sideways to let Ubemo in, but the distance between them was about one meter.
“My name is Curtis.” The other party introduced himself.
Ubemo immediately responded, “Amon-Ra!”
Seeing that the other party was on guard against him, Ubemo was not surprised. He began to observe the house under the guidance of the other party.
This wooden house is also very exquisite. Ubemo can see that there are empty shelves and a front desk inside. It was probably used as a storefront before, but now there is nothing.
“I used to be in the jewelry and other decoration business.” He explained.
Ubemo nodded. This business is somewhat similar to the store he plans to open. These exhibition wooden frames decorated with glass can be kept.
Coming to the back door, through a lawn, is a villa. Cement and krayer wood are used in a cross-coordinated manner, which looks particularly beautiful, full of modern and classical atmosphere.
“5000 berries, we can sign the contract right away!” Ubemo said after walking around.
“Okay, Mr. Amon-Ra, come here!” the other party said happily.
Then he reminded: “But I have to wait until I pack up my things in the next two days and move out before the house can be officially handed over.”
“But I will keep the furniture and other things.”
Ubemo nodded, dragged the suitcase and walked into the room with him. He took out a stack of contracts, then moved in front of Ubemo and said: “Mr. Amon-Ra, you can take a look, or find a lawyer to verify it.”
“No need for this, I have enough knowledge about contracts.” Ubemo said, then picked up the contract and began to read it. To make sure there were no traps in it, Ubemo took out a check from his arms. This was what he deposited in a local bank when he was in Xisong.
“We can go to the bank to check the authenticity.” Ubemo said.
Curtis nodded. He must be cautious when it comes to such a large amount of money. The two went to the only bank in Lierli, and after verification, they officially signed the contract.
“Around 4pm tomorrow, Mr. Amon-Ra, you can come here. I will give you the key, and then this house will belong to you completely.” Curtis said happily.
Ubemo nodded, then dragged the suitcase containing the contract and left Jinyu Street and returned to the White Hotel.
Next, I will update once a day temporarily to deal with the plot, and keep some drafts in case I can’t update in time next month. Next month, I will update twice a day. (Perfect attendance is now one of the few things I can pursue┏(^0^)┛)
