Chapter 1671 Handing over the goods

The famous polar mountain city on Mowit Road is located in a large valley at the end of the Blade Canyon. It is not correct to say that the valley is. It is actually a huge crater. If you want to enter and exit, you can only walk through the two mountain corridors of Blade Canyon and the Snake Canyon.

The statues of the founder Beto and Hillod stand at the entrances and exits of the two canyon corridors. Two huge statues of more than thirty feet high are carved with a mountain structure overlooking the city of Mowit Road in front of you. People in the city can see these two statues when they look up at any place.

I don’t know if it was Beto, the founder of the city, Hillrod, or the successor of the Mowit Road City was too incompetent. In short, after the construction of the Mowit Road City, I know that there has been no change in today, from the city layout, to the street division, to the block construction, etc. What was the city like when it was built, and what it is still like now. The only change is that the people living in these buildings have changed one after another.

The overall structure of Mowit Road City is composed of thirty-three concentric circles. Each circle of houses represents a block. The closer to the center of the city, the smaller the block. The urban layout of the Red Citrine in the Central Kingdom area draws on the layout and style of this city to a certain extent.

Unlike other cities in the polar mountains, the city of Mowit Road does not have a wall, because the original city builders Beto and Hillod both believed that if the enemy could cross the mountains and lead the army to the outside of the city, it means that Mowit Road had completely lost its ability to resist. It is the same whether the city wall is built or not. It would be better to make the attackers easier to occupy the city and reduce casualties.

No matter how the two city builders considered it at that time, their decision not to build the city wall later brought a very alternative status to Mowit Road.

Just like other parts of the mainland, the polar mountains and cities are constantly in conflict, and various battles are endless and never stopping.

Since there is a struggle, there are naturally negotiations to calm the struggle. In the past, such negotiations, both sides would choose a deserted mountain, and each led a subordinate of varying numbers, fully demonstrating their distrust of each other.

But the emergence of Mowit Road made the lords and leaders of the cities in various cities in the polar mountains feel that this city without walls is a suitable neutral area. As long as the lords of Mowit Road ensure each other's safety, it would be nice to place various negotiation locations here.

At that time, the lord of Mowit Road noticed the opportunity here, so he publicly stated that Mowit Road is a permanent neutral area of ​​the polar mountains. He guaranteed the safety of any negotiator here, and personally visited all the cities and tribes of the polar mountains and signed relevant neutral agreements with them. This made Mowit Road a negotiating city for the polar mountains. Almost all the fighting negotiations, commercial negotiations, etc. in the mountains were carried out on Mowit Road.

This special environment has also led to a very special profession in the city of Mowit Road, which is the drafter of the negotiation agreement.

As the name suggests, this profession is specially drafted for several parties in negotiations, which avoids the hot-headedness of several parties during negotiations, completely forgetting the direction and content of the negotiations, and also saves time for several parties to negotiate conditions, avoiding disputes after negotiations.

At the beginning, they just drafted negotiation agreements, but later they became responsible for some commercial agreements, and this profession gradually became standardized with the intervention of the Movit Road city government.

If you want to become a negotiating agreement drafter, in addition to studying at the Mowit Road City College for four years, you must also pass three career assessments. Now there are less than 30 formally manufactured negotiating agreement drafters in the entire Mowit Road City, and at most, there are only more than 50.

Such a few negotiating agreement drafters are responsible for the negotiation agreements brought about by various disputes between so many cities and tribes in the polar mountains. They must be too busy, so some illegal negotiating agreement drafters joined in and picked up the work that formal drafters don't want to do.

Although it is illegal, it does not mean that the ability of these negotiation agreement drafters is really much worse than that of those formal drafters. In fact, all illegal drafters have completed four years of junior college studies, but they are very unlucky and have not been able to pass the three career assessments. But even so, the various agreements they draft can still play a role in various negotiations.

Lagrom is such an illegal negotiation agreement drafter. He is not a native of Mowit passerby. He comes from a small tribe in the ice-cap area in the northern part of the polar mountains. His tribe was defeated by another large tribe. The people in the tribe became slaves. Then he was bought by a merchant caravan and brought to Mowit Road.

His master was a good man. Not only did he not abuse him, he also taught him various knowledge and allowed him to hold a position in the chamber of commerce. Before his death, he returned the contract for selling his body to him because he was worried about his identity and gave him a formal identity as a free citizen.

Afterwards, the successor of the Chamber of Commerce was not as nice as his master, and made things difficult for him everywhere, and eventually drove him away from the Chamber of Commerce. After leaving the Chamber of Commerce, he used his savings to enter the junior college where the drafter of the negotiation agreement was studying.

He was not really interested in the profession of drafting, because he was a slave, even if he was freelance, other schools in Movit Road would not be willing to accept him. Only the junior colleges of drafting teachers would allow anyone to read.

Perhaps because he was not interested in the drafter himself, he barely finished reading for four years, and then failed three assessments, and in the end he became a drafter of an illegal negotiation agreement.

Because his own drafting skills are too poor, it is difficult for him to grab valuable work from a large number of peers. At most, he can only get some profits. He is in danger and needs to do extra work to barely make a living. However, it is precisely because he has received a lot of black goods and can complete them perfectly every time that he has gained more reputation among his peers.

Today, he came to the Svenk area on the outermost side of Mowit Road, which was named after Svenk, the third city lord of Mowit Road. However, the locals on Mowit Road would rather call this place the beast bar because almost all the buildings here are beast bar houses.

The reason for this is entirely because the caravans who came to Mowit Road would unload the goods here and then send all kinds of pack beasts to familiar beast owners to take care of them. For this reason, even in the coldest time in this urban area, you can smell the introverted smell of pack beasts and the feces of various pack beasts.

Lagrom rarely comes to the beast cliff area because the smell of the beast cliff area made him involuntarily think of his life experience of being locked up with a pack beast when he was a child. That bad experience had already given him a psychological shadow and instinctively refused all kinds of life related to the beast cliff.

However, the situation was different this time. He took on a job that had to go to the beast pen in person, because the person who gave him was a big man that he would never offend, and the reward that this big man gave was too tempting, making him forget all psychological problems for a while, took on the commission in person, and decided to go on stage to complete the task.

The task this time is very simple, which is to take a batch of goods, pay a final payment, and then deliver the received goods to the designated location and hand them over to the designated person.

Although the mission seemed simple, it was actually very dangerous, because he could almost no longer have to think about it to be sure that the goods were contraband. Thinking of the people the great man made daily friendship, he could even guess that this goods should be missionary books from some True God Church.

The missionary of the True God Church has always been rejected by the cities of the polar mountains and mountains. The people in the power of the polar mountains and cities may not attack the missionaries of the True God Church, but they can cause all kinds of trouble for the missionaries, such as not selling shops in the city to the missionaries any food and life needs, and even if necessary, they will directly attack those who come into contact with the church, or install crimes on these people, send them into cells, or directly send people to assassinate them. In short, it is to erase all signs that may allow the True God Church to gain a foothold.

Even if the True God Church is hit like this, the Evil God Church will not mention it. Once there is relevant news, it will directly send someone to hunt and kill without giving any chance of negotiation.

It is precisely because of this decisive approach that the polar mountains can be said to be a forbidden area of ​​the church until now, and no church can gain a foothold here.

If it is other times when transporting contraband such as church missionary books is not a particularly serious crime, but in recent times, all things related to the church have become taboos in the city of Mowit Road, so this time Lagrom also felt a little tricky.

The reason why Movit Lu suddenly became so harsh to the people of the church was entirely because of an assassination against the Lord of Movit Lu that happened not long ago, and the missionaries of the True God Church were said to have also participated in it and were all arrested.

Although most of the city lords in the polar mountains have no most of their power and their status has been retained, they still have considerable influence and are deeply loved by the civilians in the city. Now that the city lord is assassinated, they are naturally angry, and the review of the church has not received their opposition.

In such a situation where the whole nation is hostile to the church forces, if he accidentally exposes this batch of contraband, he, a non-local person, will definitely be punished the most severely, and it will not be a problem to lose his head for it.

It is precisely because of this seriousness that he personally took part in this job from the beginning. Because he didn't know when the smuggled goods would arrive, he rented a room in the beast pen and waited here so that he could take the goods away as soon as the goods arrived.

However, what Ragrom did not expect was that during the few days he stayed here, although he did not get the batch of contraband, he unexpectedly took on several orders and helped several temporary caravans to sign several goods purchase and sale agreements with the local chamber of commerce. Although the commission for each order was not much, it was also quite large, equivalent to one-third of the commission for this acceptance task, which made him start to consider whether the business should be transferred to the beast bar.

Today, as usual, he began to ask whether the team of the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce was coming at various reception points in the beast bar. After receiving all the negative answers, he turned around and returned to his house and continued to complete the transaction agreement that he had not completed yesterday. This job was taken three days ago, because both parties said they did not need to hurry up, so he put the job to the end.

Just as Ragrom had just finished writing the last agreement and started to conduct an overall inspection, a staff member of the beast bar reception hurried to his temporary residence and told him that the people from the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce had arrived, but then added with a little doubt, saying: "However, there are only two people and a pack beast, which look like a lone merchant, not like the people from the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce."

"Didn't your head check their proof of identity?" Lagrom immediately folded the drafted agreement in his hand and entered the expansion belt, then asked.

"I checked it, there was no problem," the staff immediately answered, and said, "However, I was worried that I had made a mistake. Even after checking my identity, I still sent someone to find a few elderly people who are familiar with the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce to identify their identities."

Hearing the staff's words, Ragrom did not ask any more questions, walked out of the room quickly, then trotted in the thick snow, and rushed towards the staff's pen that he had to take away the goods before the arrival of the elderly who were familiar with the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce to avoid the emergence of the various periods.

Soon Lagrom came outside the gate of the beast railing, and after indicating his identity to the guard at the door, he walked in. At this time, he happened to see the pack beast standing in the middle of the beast shed. What's more correct is that there was a piece of cloth with a special symbol on the baskets on both sides of the pack beast. This symbol is the identity symbol, which means that the things in the two baskets are the goods he was going to take away.

Seeing this, he walked up and said to a middle-aged man who was sitting next to the pack beast with a different appearance than the northern polar people, "I am the recipient of these goods. This is my proof. Let's complete the handover of goods as soon as possible!"

As he said that, he saw him take out a brief agreement document and hand it to the man.

The man looked up at him and did not take the agreement. Instead, he pointed to another Northlander with obvious characteristics not far away, indicating that the person he was going to hand over was there.

Seeing that he had made the wrong person, Ragrom was not embarrassed. He immediately walked to the northerner who might be a member of the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce and said the handover again.

The northerner took over the agreement, and then took out another one himself, compared it with the agreement, and after confirming it, he signaled that Lagrom could move the things away. As for the supervisor in charge of the beast bar here, he was blocked by the money Ragrom took out before he could speak.

Everything seemed to be going well. Just as Ragrom asked people to start moving out the goods basket and transporting them away, some people blocked the door of the beast bar and asked to check the goods.
