After entering the city, Li Cha saw that the road of Cuijin City was very wide. The main road was more than ten meters, and it was paved with flat bluestone slabs.However, it may be that the construction time is too long, and most of the bluestone slabs have been damaged. Some places are covered with cracks, and other places are potholes, and the depressions are filled with black sewage.

Pedestrians come and go, be careful to avoid difficult places.Occasionally someone riding a horse shouted at Mercedes-Benz, and the horseshoe stepped on the sewage and splashed around, causing pedestrians to scold and dodge.

The air is a bit turbid and the smell is a bit bad, but everything else is acceptable.

Along the wide road, two or three-story buildings are built on both sides. The shops are endless. The guys hang their smiles at the door and enthusiastically attract the guests. The shop is the bargaining of the guests and the boss.There was a lot of noise and laughter from time to time in the tavern. The blacksmith's "jingle bells" were ringing. Pieces of weapons or agricultural tools were built and sold at the door...

Pandora carried the suitcase and looked at the surrounding scene with his eyes wide open. He felt a little disgusted by the bad environment. Compared with the fresh, clean and natural forest, the difference was too far.But I was curious about how many people were busy. This was never in the forest.

Richard took Pandora all the way, and finally walked into a nice-looking hotel.

There is no accident on the first floor of the hotel. It is still a tavern, and many people who are noisy are sitting and drinking, drinking and laughing.

Richard didn't pay much attention to this, and stepped forward to the counter.

Behind the counter is a shopkeeper in his forties who is fat and looks like a ball.When not smiling, there are three points of treachery on his face. When laughing, a pair of thin squints disappear, and the corners of the mouth are up to the nose, making people subconsciously cover their wallets.

"Hey, hey, this guest, what do you need? Staying in the store, or what to do?" The innkeeper had already greeted him without waiting for Richard to say, "If we stay in the store, we have a choice of rooms at various prices. Can be short-term or long-term rental. We also have other services, such as helping you find a girl who can relax, or helping you find some people to deal with problems..."

Li Cha raised his eyebrows and already knew the role played by the hotelier behind the counter. He should be a broker, a medieval intermediary businessman.They use the advantages of hotels and pubs to meet various people to introduce trades to people and earn commissions from them.In fact, in the Middle Ages, many hoteliers and other shopkeepers also took up this occupation, which is why some craftsmen and mercenaries like to gather in pubs and other places.

The so-called mercenary unions and thieves unions are impossible to exist in a world similar to the Middle Ages.Even if it exists, there is a huge gap from what is described in some novels.After all, according to the description, various trade unions can easily contact the organizational forces of several cities, and even most of the continents, and they have been able to establish a country. How can they still be comfortable pumping water and earning service fees?And the rulers of a country will never allow the existence of similar trade union organizations as long as they have a normal mind.

Therefore, in a real world similar to the Middle Ages, pubs and hotels are union mission halls in a sense. People can find ways to get a job by communicating with the shop owner, or find someone who can work for themselves.

But... Richard just wants to find a place to stay for now.

Looking at the shop owner, Richard said: "Just give me a room, the rest of the needs are temporarily gone."

"Ah, yes." After listening to Richard's words, the hotel owner did not feel unhappy because he couldn't make extra money. He still kept a smiling face, but he was much more efficient.He reached out quickly, and simply said, "The best room is one silver coin a day, that is, one hundred copper, and the worst room is five copper a day. There are also ten copper and fifteen copper in the middle. , Twenty copper and fifty copper, you see..."

"The best." Licha said, handing out a silver coin.

"Okay, I'll arrange it for you..." The innkeeper said with a smile on his face, he would greet the man, but his eyes swept the silver coins in his hand, and his voice suddenly disappeared into his throat and face. 'S expression froze for a few seconds, frowning slightly.

At the next moment, the innkeeper looked at Richard, his eyes flickered, and he still spoke politely, and asked in a prolonged tone: "This-the guest is from a foreign land, isn't he from the Emerald Kingdom?"

"Ah, yes."

"That's the case. The price of the room I just mentioned refers to the silver coins in circulation in the Emerald Kingdom. You don't seem to give me this but the rest of the country. Well, don't get me wrong, I don't mean the rest, Maybe your silver coin is more valuable than the silver coin of the Emerald Kingdom, but... this is the Emerald Gold City, not outside the city, or the rest of the Emerald Kingdom. Some foreign currencies are not very recognized, and I don’t want to take advantage of you... …"

Richard listened and nodded, not angry, and no reason to be angry.After all, just as the entire world does not speak the same language, the entire world will not use the same coin.

It is true that the use of the same language, the same coin, and the same measurement and measurement can help communication.The same culture and the same political system contribute to the joint development of each other.But reality is reality after all...

Richard was prepared for the currency that is not universal, so when he left the Blue Lion Kingdom, he brought a small part of gold and silver coins, and more of them were gems and other luxury goods.Richard's original plan was to reach a strange country and sell gems in exchange for local currency.

But now considering the many kinds of currency obtained from the iron ring of the mysterious wizard, it is not necessary to take out gems.

Looking at the hotel owner, Richard lightly touched the iron ring in his hand and activated it with mana. When he flipped his hand, another silver coin came out. "This is the official silver coin of the Emerald Kingdom?"

The innkeeper shook his head: "Well, not..."

"That kind of thing?" Richard took out another one.

"Uh, neither..."

"This kind?"

"Not yet..."

Richard always tried the sixth kind, and finally found the official silver coin of the real Emerald Kingdom, and handed it to the hotel owner.

Seeing the innkeeper finally accept it, Richard flashed his eyes and asked, "Apart from silver coins, is it okay to use gold coins?"

"Ah, of course, as long as the Emerald Kingdom circulates, as long as you have the guests. But..." The innkeeper hesitated and said, "But... if the guest stays for a short time, give me a gold coin. , I still want to give you a lot of silver coins, which is not convenient. So, I suggest you, it is better to use silver coins to pay the bill."
