Chapter 72 Chapter 71: High-profile return (seeking follow-up reading, monthly ticket)

Fisherman's Harbor,
Early in the morning, a group of fishermen, sailors and porters arrived one after another. When they were preparing for their daily work, they found that the port had been sealed.

They were all rough people, and when many of them were about to start cursing, they were beaten up by the city guards who were there to maintain law and order, which made them lose their temper.

The daily security of Fisherman's Harbor is also the responsibility of the City Guard.

Normally they were the bullies of this area, with ships docking and all kinds of shops doing business. If they were not given tribute, they would make trouble three times a day.

Although because they are near the sea, these city guards inevitably have the smell of fish on their bodies and are ridiculed by their peers in the city.

But that kind of ridicule is more of jealousy, envy and hatred!

However, as arrogant as the city guards are, they can only do some minor work today.

Warriors wearing gorgeous leather armor and holding spears completely blocked the port.

Each of these warriors had a fierce aura and sharp eyes. They looked around vigilantly, their gazes like blades.

The emblem on their chests is an iron gauntlet with the palms facing inward, which is the emblem of Torm, the god of justice.

In the center of the crowd surrounded by soldiers was a middle-aged fat man.

The fat guy was really fat. He was not tall, had a round belly, and couldn't even see the ground when he stood on tiptoe.

But no one dares to ignore his identity!
He was wearing a formal dress made of dark red satin with intricate patterns embroidered with gold thread. This dress alone was worth a hundred gold coins.

Not to mention, he had ten gold rings on his ten fingers, and the huge gems on each ring sparkled in the sun, dazzling the eyes.

In the whole city of Auckland, only the devout believers in Woking would dress in such an exaggerated way.

The man in front of him was none other than Mark Williams, the president of the Seven Gods Bank, a devout follower of Woking, the goddess of wealth and trade, and a wealthy businessman who was said to have Goldteel flowing through every pore.

The captain of the Fisherman's Harbor City Guard was standing next to him, bowing and nodding like a servant.

But Mark Williams didn't like him at all, and his face was full of impatience.

Until a ship slowly docked at the shore, the wealthy businessman immediately became alert and looked over with anticipation.

The Percinus docked and the planks were laid. The first thing Roy did when he got off was to meet the fat man.

The etiquette he had cultivated since childhood came into play at this moment. He walked forward calmly, put his right hand on his chest, and said with a smile: "But Mr. Mark Williams?"

"It's me! It's me! Haha, you are Luo Yi, Luo Yi from the Raymond family?"

"Loy Roy Fitz, salute you!"

Mark Williams didn't care about the illegitimate child's last name at all. Instead, he looked expectant and asked, "What that person said to me last night couldn't be false, right?"

Luo Yi said: "In the name of the Raymond family, do you think I would joke about such a thing?"

“Hahahaha, of course not. I just didn’t expect that Mr. Luo Yi’s luck was so good!”

Mark Williams laughed out loud, so happily that he even lost his composure a little.

Luo Yi just smiled without saying anything, looking reserved.

"Mr. Mark, then don't waste any more time?"

"Good good!"

Mark Williams said this, and then laughed and said, "Quick, quick, quick, everyone, move."

Then, the sailors carried down large wooden boxes and buckets from the boat. They were all extremely heavy and required the combined efforts of two or three people to lift them.

At the back of the port, in an empty room, staff from the bank conducted on-site inspections and assessments.

It's not that there are no banks in this world. The prototype of banks existed in ancient times and was called "goldsmith".

Mainly, people can deposit gold bars with a goldsmith, and the certificate issued by the goldsmith can be used for storage, and also serves the purpose of currency identification and exchange.

At that time, 'goldsmith' was a profession, but it was also a synonym for wealth!
However, not only does depositing gold bars with a goldsmith not only not earn any interest, but there are also handling fees and exchange fees.

But the Seven Gods Bank is different. Their system is extremely complete. Not only does it have a complete loan business, even the government agencies of the Habsburg Empire borrow from them.

At the same time, the Seven Gods Bank also has a savings business. The sturdy vault is protected by divine power and cannot be opened without the correct steps and methods.

Most importantly, the Seven Gods Bank will also give depositors a certain amount of interest. Although it is not much, it is always more cost-effective than paying interest to the bank.

The result was that once the Seven Gods Bank came into being, other banks went bankrupt one after another. Apart from some underground money houses and shameful wealth, this was the richest organization in the entire Habsburg Empire.

Luo Yi's gains this time were so great that he was qualified to be received in person by the bank president, who even arranged personnel to carry out the handover with great fanfare.

Those spear warriors are not just for show. Not to mention their strength, the emblem on their chest represents that they are the temple guards of Torm, the god of justice.

Those are warriors who are directly protected by the gods. When they appear, no one dares to move around.

All around, the onlookers stretched their necks, very curious. The box was so tightly sealed that they had no idea what was inside.
However, the boxes filled with gold and silver were too heavy to bear, and one of the sailors ran out of strength and the boxes slipped out of his hands, causing a large amount of gold and silver to roll all over the ground.

At this moment, it seemed as if the world was quiet, everyone's breathing became heavy, and countless eyes converged, with faces full of astonishment, disbelief, and deep greed. Only Mark Williams was angry, scolding loudly, and picking up the gold coins himself.

After a while, all the money was packed up again and the boxes were carried away, but the originally calm crowd pricked up their ears unconsciously.

Even from a long distance away, they seemed to be able to hear the sound of the kintir colliding, so crisp, pleasant and breathtaking.

At this moment, even the captain of the city guard, the seemingly servile man, looked at Luo Yi with eyes filled with deep malice.

Of course, when his eyes turned back to Mark Williams, he restrained his greed.

And this is just a small episode. The barrels will eventually be transported away, but inventory and evaluation will take longer.

There is no other way. In addition to coins, there are also gems, gold, silver, agate, coral, pearls, paintings and other items that need to be evaluated.

This is Mark Williams' business, so after saying hello, he went to get busy.

Just when everyone thought that things were over, someone else arrived.

They were a group of magicians wearing black robes, with their heads held high, contemptuous expressions, looking down on people, making them seem so noble.

But they did have noble qualifications. Not to mention the outer city guards, even the guards of the Temple of Justice did not stop them.

The leading magician was wearing a pure white robe with two circles of pentagram embroidered on his chest. A total of eight corners were lit up, turning into twinkling stars.

This one was a true spellcaster, at level 8 of the second stage. In the era when the magic industry was rising, even the nobles had to salute him when they saw him.

After all, there may be many nobles, but there are very few magicians.

This person was also an acquaintance of Luo Yi. When he saw him, he greeted him with a smile.

"Mrs. Linda, thank you for your hard work."

This one is from the Ancient Mage Tower, a second-level official magician and potion master Linda Armstrong.

Luo Yi was a big customer of the Ancient Spirit Mage Tower, and he spent a lot of money on buying potions with Jintir. The person arranged by the Ancient Spirit Mage Tower to receive him was this person.

Madam Linda smiled very gently, and she said: "For a complete corpse of the Fire Demon, I would have to come even if it took eight or ten trips, not to mention just one.

But don't lie to me, okay?"

"Not only is there a complete corpse of the Burning Demon, but also an adult basilisk, the descendant of the Doomsday Snake Leviathan. I will definitely not let you down!"

Linda's expression froze: "Are you sure you're not kidding me?"

"How dare I?"

Luo Yi smiled and said, "Mrs. Linda, I will take you there myself."

"Let's go!"

This time, it was not Roy who led the way, but Linda who pulled at his clothes, looking impatient.

So, a group of people boarded the Percinus, and soon they heard Mrs. Linda's voice, which seemed to be very distressed and she couldn't help but roar.

Faintly, everyone seemed to hear: "Who? Who told you to do this? It's a waste of natural resources, it's really a waste of natural resources!"

"This snake gallbladder, snake gallbladder, it's such a good material, how can it be left like this?"

"The descendants of Leviathan, the hardest scales, the best armor material, are wasted like this. What a pity, what a pity!"

Luo Yi really didn't stay for long before he escaped because he was scolded so badly that he couldn't even raise his head.

As for the besiegers, they also saw large chunks of snake meat, huge fangs, intact snake skin, and exaggerated sections of snake bones.

These were enough to cause everyone to be amazed, but it was not until the snake head, the huge snake head of the descendant of the doomsday monster Leviathan, was lifted down that the crowd was truly horrified and dared not look directly at it.

As for the corpse of the Fire Demon, it was so shocking that it was carried out covered up.

Madam Linda and her team came quickly and left quickly. They needed to take these materials back to the Ancient Spirit Mage Tower for secondary processing, otherwise many of them would lose their effectiveness.

Of course, Luo Yi promised that unused materials could be sold to the Mage Tower, but not all of them. The details would have to be discussed later.

For example, snake meat is something Luoyi needs for his cultivation, and snake scales are something he needs to make a set of armor.

After these wizards left, Butler Hoover arrived again, bringing with him many people, driving a horse-drawn carriage.

Each carriage was pulling a number of coffins, in front of everyone's horrified gaze.

In the end, what was sent down from the Percynus were corpses. They were placed in coffins and then taken away one after another.

Not until dozens of coffins had left did the Percynas finally complete unloading, but the news had spread throughout the city of Auckland like a whirlwind.

Everyone says that Roy Roy Fitz, the illegitimate son of the Raymond family, got the treasure of the Bloody Mary Pirates, and the glittering gold is more than the treasure of the dragon.
