"This is your temporary identity certificate in Sosta City. You can enter and leave the city at will in the next month. Of course, you can also purchase properties in the city, so that you can convert yourself into a local resident, and you don't need to pay the city entry fee. "
"Thank you."
Li Hongshen took the small iron piece, put it in his arms, and then walked into the city.
After entering the city, Li Hongshen was not surprised when he could clearly see the towering wizard tower in the center of the city. The lords of such free cities are usually wizards, and only wizards have such powerful power that they can overwhelm everything.
Li Hongshen went straight to the car dealership next to the city gate, gave the driver two copper coins, and asked him to take him to the biggest tavern in the city.
A tavern is a good place, especially a big tavern, where many trivial things in the city are exchanged, and you can collect a lot of useful information by sitting here for a day.
Of course, you don’t want to expect much information, at most there are all kinds of legends that you don’t know the truth or falsehood, here is more to let a foreigner understand the customs of this city.
After all, Li Hongshen had gone through many inquiries and inquiries before, but in the end he still had to see it with his own eyes.
And the coachman is not surprised by people like Li Hongshen. There are not many explorers who come and go every day. In the eyes of outsiders, this free port can get gold when they come, and the bar is the best place for outsiders to get information. .
After riding in a carriage for about 20 minutes, Li Hongshen came to a block near the wizard tower. After getting off the car, Li Hongshen looked at the location in front of him, and then at the central avenue leading straight to the city gate. raised eyebrows.
Looking at the smiling coachman, he didn't say anything. He lamented the simplicity of the folk customs in this city, experienced the purity of the coachman's heart and the degree to which he managed to kill customers, pushed open the door of the tavern, and then walked in.
In broad daylight, the tavern was relatively deserted, and not many people came to drink and get drunk during the day, so the atmosphere was not very lively.
Li Hongshen didn't care, but went straight to the bar.
Standing at the bar of the tavern was a middle-aged handsome guy with silver hair, dressed in a handsome bartender costume, with a tired face, as if he had just woken up.
He was wiping a glass with a white cloth in his hand. Li Hongshen came to the bar and smiled at the bartender.
"Hello, have a glass of ice water."
The bartender stopped wiping the glass, looked at smiling Li Hongshen, took out a crystal glass from the bar, put some ice cubes in it, filled it with water and handed it to Li Hongshen.
"Thank you. I just came to this city, and I want to know more about the customs and customs here. If you have time and effort, can you explain it to me?"
After speaking, Li Hongshen took out a magic stone, put it on the bar and pushed it in front of the bartender.
The bartender looked at the magic stone in front of him, and his tired expression immediately became energetic, and an eager smile bloomed on his face.
"Welcome to the Sosta-Snow bar, what do you want to know first?"
"Well, I'm a businessman and I want to buy a shop here, and then I will sell some cosmetics and perfumes, as well as a small amount of alchemy products. Of course, I have also inquired about the customs and customs in the city before. I hope you can recommend it. A relatively calm shop."
Hearing Li Hongshen's words, the bartender's eyes changed obviously, and then he became more respectful. The identity of a businessman is very common to a bartender, and many customers who can consume in this tavern are businessmen.
Even merchants who sell cosmetics and perfumes are not uncommon, but alchemy products have something to say, no matter where the alchemy products come from, it means that the person in front of him can get in touch with the extraordinary, and with a person with alchemy ability The wizard hooked up a relationship.
It may be a spokesperson launched by a wizard, or it may be a wizard itself. Such scenes are actually not uncommon. In this Liberty City, they can be seen every few years.
"Dear guest, if you can sell alchemy products, I suggest you go to the city hall for some certification, and then you can get a shop on Sosta Street at a more favorable price, where there are people like you people."
Hearing this, Li Hongshen also smiled slightly. He knew that the bar in front of him seemed to have seen something. Sure enough, he was able to act as a bartender in the largest tavern in Liberty City, and his ability was far beyond ordinary people.
From the ignorance at the beginning, to the professional treatment after receiving the magic stone, and the respect after learning the information at the end, it can be said that it perfectly interprets my service spirit.
Li Hongshen didn't care either. After learning the news he wanted, he talked with the bartender and got a general understanding of Sosta City. Then he turned around and left the tavern, and went straight to the city hall.
Chapter 264
When Li Hongshen came out of the city hall, holding a roll of house deeds in his hand, Wei Wei waited for a while, and an official with a monocle and thinning hair came out from inside.
With some respect, he led Li Hongshen to the side house, boarded a carriage, and arrived at the north side of the wizard's tower, in a block near the central avenue.
Coming here, Li Hongshen can see that the pedestrians on the road have become a little sparser, but the quality has been greatly improved relatively. With a slight glance towards the outside of the car, he can clearly distinguish knights, nobles, and wizards.
The carriage traveled along the road into the block, and finally came to a closed shop. This is a small three-story building. The first and second floors are relatively large, which can be used as shops and studios, while the third floor is smaller. It can be regarded as a bedroom.
This shop was originally leased to a merchant. A few years ago, the wizard behind the merchant broke the relationship with the merchant, so the shop was vacated.
Until now, it was bought by Li Hongshen with [-] magic stones. Now Li Hongshen is considered the resident population of Sosta City, and at the same time enjoys the tax exemption policy.
Thinking of this, Li Hongshen also had to admire the city lord of Sosta City. He intended to give up such a big benefit just to keep the wizards in Sosta City. It can be said that this Sosta block was built by the city lord. The business card attracts many people who want to contact Chaofan.
After inspecting the shop, Li Hongshen nodded to the official, which made the official heave a sigh of relief, and then formally handed over the key to Li Hongshen. The smell of ritual.
Seeing new people come to this block to open a store, it made people on the road and in the store feel a little strange, and at the same time they began to watch.
Li Hongshen didn't mind either. After nodding to the surroundings, a huge mage's hand directly destroyed the shop in front of him, but the smoke and dust did not affect everyone, but was controlled by Li Hongshen.
Then, amid the stunned expressions of the surrounding audience, Li Hongshen opened a portal, and together with the garbage dump in the city, threw the ruins of these buildings directly into the garbage dump through the portal.
Finally, the ground was leveled and the suitcase was placed on the ground. After the suitcase was opened, a Bauhaus-style building squeezed out of the suitcase.
The building unfolded quickly, and a few minutes later, a six-story building for commercial and residential purposes was displayed in front of everyone.
Li Hongshen looked at the building in front of him, nodded, and waved his hand. The notice board outside the store stated the store's business hours and the goods for sale, and the store's opening time was [-]:[-] tomorrow morning.
After Li Hongshen entered the building, some of the onlookers walked towards other shops, and some left the block quickly. By the end of the night, the news had spread that a new wizard had arrived in the Sosta block, and he could directly shop at The portal is used in the city, and the name of the shop is David Lee's Cabin.
On the sixth floor of the shop, Li Hongshen was soaking in the bathtub, looking at the starry sky outside the skylight, thinking about his operation today, feeling very satisfied.
The space energy in this world is very active, so technologies such as space teleportation and space folding are frequently used here. Of course, if you want to use these technologies, you still need a relatively strong strength as a support.
But who is Li Hongshen? He is a time traveler, and he is also a time traveler who has mastered the laws of space. Although the laws of space are small and thin and not very powerful, they can still be used.
For the space of this world, Li Hongshen is like a lever that increases the energy of space that he can fluctuate. This makes him able to open the portal before he has become an official wizard, and it is still within the city.
You must know that there is a wizard tower in the city of Sosta, and the space teleportation and other methods are actually somewhat suppressed. Not everyone can open the portal casually. After all, no one wants to be casually opened by a wizard. to open a portal to them.
However, this kind of suppression is also limited. As long as the wizard is strong enough and has a deep understanding of space, then these suppressions can be ignored. In the final analysis, it depends on whether the user is tough or not.
Of course, he was very honest. When he registered at the city hall, it was written as a graduate of Eugenesham, a first-level wizard apprentice. As for whether other people believe it or not, it is none of his business.
Now the store cabinets on the first floor downstairs are full of goods, such as perfume, cosmetics, recovery potions, rage potions, etc. At the same time, he also put a lot of alchemy equipment, such as scimitars, long swords, two-handed swords , armor and so on.
Of course, the specific level is not high, it is the equipment that Li Hongshen bought from some weapon shops at random, and modified the goods after he came back, but even so, it is enough for Li Hongshen to fill the shelves.
Early the next morning, when Li Hongshen opened for business, people from the surrounding shops all came to buy something, and the City Lord's Mansion even specially sent a flower basket.
After thanking everyone, Li Hongshen wrote a recruitment request on the notice board, recruiting followers, knights who intended to undergo physical transformation.
And that afternoon, Li Hongshen welcomed the first person who wanted to apply to be his entourage, a somewhat scruffy middle-aged man.
He has short black hair, pointed ears, a bit like elf ears, a square face, and a horizontal scar on the bridge of his nose.
He was not wearing any armor, only two steel shoulder armors on his shoulders, and the rest was covered by worn leather armor. He carried a two-handed giant sword on his back. He was tall and muscular. After years of training, he has experienced life and death several times to hone his outstanding martial arts.
Moreover, Li Hongshen could also see that there was a surging fire of life in the body of this rather desolate and strong man in front of him. The fire of life was restrained in his body, and it was not constantly dissipating like an ordinary knight.
