Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 4 Shocking News (2)

"Big event?" Zhang Tie's expression changed, "Did something happen to my family?"

"There is indeed a big incident in your family, and the whole Black Flame City is a sensation!"

"Could it be the secret police..." Thinking of this possibility, Zhang Tie broke out in a cold sweat.

"No, it has nothing to do with the secret police. What everyone didn't expect is that your family is actually a member of the Zhang family of Huaiyuantang in Jinyun country. A few days ago, the Zhang family of Huaiyuantang came to the black Yancheng, take everyone from your family away!"

Zhang Tie's head was like being struck by lightning, and he was dumbfounded. What Zhang Tie never imagined was that his family was actually related to the Zhang family of Huaiyuantang in Jinyun Kingdom. It's from the Zhang family. My father and mother have never talked about such a thing before.

How come there are so many relatives in my family all of a sudden? And it sounds very awesome. The family that can use the airship to fly from Jinyun Kingdom to Heiyan City is of course not an ordinary stuff. But the strange thing is that my parents never mentioned it in these years, and Zhang Tie felt that there seemed to be something strange about it.

After knowing that his family members were fine, but being picked up by the Zhang family, Zhang Tie's mood at the moment can be described as both shock and joy. The biggest stone that has been hanging in Zhang Tie's heart for the past few days has finally come to an end. land. Zhang Tie's whole body relaxed for a while, and he felt indescribably comfortable as if another bright spot had been ignited.

For Zhang Tie, it doesn't matter how much hardship he suffers, no matter how many hardships and hardships he experiences, as long as his parents are fine. As a member of the Zhang family, being taken back by members of the family is definitely a thousand times better than being in Heiyan City now. Originally, Zhang Tie racked his brains to plan how to get his parents away from Heiyan City, but now, all the problems were solved.

The old man has been observing the expression on Zhang Tie's face. Hearing such news, the expression on Zhang Tie's face can be described as mixed, full of surprises and confusion, changing back and forth like a big dye vat, and finally , when the expression on Zhang Tie's face completely calmed down, the old man went on to say the second news.

"On the second day of the Brape Oktoberfest, the airship that was still far away arrived in Brape. I originally wanted to pick you up, but at that time you were already wanted, and you didn't know where you were hiding. Your family members The people from Huaiyuantang have been looking for you in Brape for two days, but there is still no news, and finally they have to leave. According to the speed of that airship, they may arrive in Jinyun Kingdom in about a week!"

It turned out that people from my family had already come to look for me! I don't know how worried my parents should be after knowing that they were wanted in an accident? Zhang Tie's heart twitched slightly again.

"Can Jinpeng Bank get in touch with my family now?"

"No! At least not yet." The old man shook his head, "Jinpeng Bank also has a branch on the site of the Zhang family in Huaiyuantang. If you want to contact your family, we can send the news back to Jinyun first. China, let the people over there pay attention to the news of your family, and when your family lands, we can help you bring the news to them!"

"Okay, that's it!" Zhang Tie suddenly made a decision in his heart, "Send a letter to my family and tell them that I'm fine, I'm fine now, and I'll come to them soon, so they don't worry about me! "

The old man smiled, and took out a form with a standard format from the drawer next to the table, "We charge by word for long-distance remote sensing communication, including punctuation marks, you write down what you want to say, we The same content will be sent to your family members without changing the word like a letter!"

Looking at the form with a fixed format in his hand,

Zhang Tie smiled embarrassedly, then picked up the pen, and first wrote the names of his father, mother, and brother among the first three contacts on the form, then thought for a while, and then brushed. Leave a few lines.

——Mom, Dad, Brother, Sister-in-Law, I’m fine, I’m fine, you don’t have to worry about me, I already know that you were picked up by the Huaiyuantang airship, especially mom, you don’t have to worry about me, your son and I are both I didn't lose one, and I can still eat and dance. And brother, take good care of your parents. If necessary, the thing I told Tang De can be used as your trump card. They should know its value. Don’t let your parents be wronged. The baby is born, you should pay more attention to your body, everyone misses me, I will find a way to come back as soon as possible!

After finishing writing, Zhang Tie read it carefully again, feeling that almost everything he wanted to say was on it, so he handed the paper to the old man.

"Well, these things have to be sent over, and the people over there have to pay attention to sending them to your family. Let me see, a total of 36 gold coins are needed!"

"no problem!"

Dad's salary for the past three years was sent to his family at this time. If it was before, Zhang Tie would definitely be stunned by this figure, but at this moment, although the price is a bit high, it is still worth it. Within Zhang Tie's tolerance, as long as it can make parents less worried about themselves, everything is worth it.

This kind of remote sensing communication, which is thousands of miles away, is really beyond the reach of ordinary people. Zhang Tie thought of what he read in the library books about the development of human communication before the cataclysm when humans had network technology, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The price and cost, maybe the money to buy a steamed bun is enough to send ten such messages, and it is more than enough, this is the real moment.

"Any questions?" the old man asked Zhang Tie.

"I want to know why Major Franka is wanted?"

The old man told the story of the Iron Horn Corps intercepting Major Franka’s airship on the day of the Oktoberfest and the subsequent discovery of Major Franka’s disappearance. The police are related to the disappearance of the soldiers of the 21st Division of Brape, so they issued a military arrest warrant!"

Ruthless, really ruthless! This is Zhang Tie's evaluation of Franka when he heard that the secret police who acted together with Franka were poisoned to death. Then waiting for his end is definitely a dead end. His subordinates have participated in all the things he did in Brape. Under the strict inspection of the army, anyone who is hard-pressed will speak, let alone those secret police

And this time he had a huge conflict with himself in Brape because of selfishness, and directly pushed the secret police system to the forefront of confrontation with the Iron Horn Legion. As you can see, even if he can go back, the secret police system must conduct a detailed investigation into the matter, and there will be no good fruit waiting for him.

So crazy and vicious! Perhaps when that guy was calculating himself, he had already thought about finding a chance to silence all his subordinates together, so that it would be safe enough.

Just for a secret that even he doesn't know what it is, but it may make him soar into the sky, just for a possible result, that person is so decisive and vicious, is it really worth it?

Major Franka's ruthlessness made Zhang Tie feel a little chilled. Zhang Tie knew that if he was in the position of Major Franka, he would definitely not be as ruthless and decisive as that guy.

This is the difference between people.

"I also want to ask, if I am going to Huaiyuan Hall of Jinyun Country at this moment, can you provide me with such a service?"

"Kalur is the most important transportation hub in this area. Airships fly from here to Jinyun Kingdom every two months. Recently, because of the war, many people choose to leave this area from Karur. Spaces are in short supply. The latest airship left Karur yesterday. If you want to book an airship seat to Jinyun in two months, we can book it for you. You can take the airship to Jinyun and then Then transfer from Jinyun Kingdom to another airship to the territory of the Zhang family."

Two months to book a cabin? Zhang Tie was speechless for a while. Now he doesn't want to stay here for another two months. Maybe before leaving, he still wants to quietly go back to Heiyan City to have a look. In Heiyan City, he still has some concerns, but he absolutely must. In less than two months, from here to Heiyan City, even by train, about a week is enough.

"Is there a faster way?"

"If you have one, you can also charter an airship to take you to Jinyun Country for a short period of time, but we may not be able to provide you with such a service!" "Why?" Zhang Tie was a little dazed.

"Because all the airships that can be chartered by Karur have already been chartered at this time, Jinpeng Bank can transfer an airship from other places, but we only provide such services to the bank's VIP customers, you Not our VIP customer, so we can't provide you with such service!"

"What are the minimum criteria to become a VIP customer of your bank?"

"The minimum standard for a VIP of the Yellow rank is to deposit more than 500,000 gold coins in Jinpeng Bank!" The old man replied flatly.

500,000 gold coins? Or the minimum entry standard? Zhang Tie took a deep breath. According to the Gregorian family's valuation compensation standard for his little life, Zhang Tie would have to sell himself a hundred times to make up the amount. , and relying on the old father's salary, most ordinary people have to earn 500,000 gold coins, and at least 40,000 years of work is possible. Damn, this is the way for a nouveau riche family like Gregory of Heiyancheng to meet the minimum standard for becoming a yellow-level VIP of Jinpeng Bank.

Zhang Tie completely stopped thinking about chartering an airship at such a time. Maybe he can afford to charter an airship to Jinyun Kingdom in a short time, but at this moment, he does not have such air transportation resources. The extremely hot moment allowed Jinpeng Bank to transfer an airship qualification for him. The highest service the bank can provide him is to help him book a ticket to Jinyun two months later.

Zhang Tie is considering whether to book a ticket of this class.

"Young man, do you want to hear my advice?" The information director of Jinpeng Bank looked at Zhang Tie with a pair of wise eyes.

"Please tell me!"

"I don't think you need to worry about finding a way to go back at this moment!"

"why!"

"Hehe, when you are anxious to go back, people from the Zhang family may also be trying to get you back. You seem to be alone and helpless at the moment, but in fact the situation may not be as bad as you imagined. You put the most important Ignored a little?"

"What did I overlook?"

"You have overlooked that although you are wanted at the moment, there is an extremely powerful family behind you. The Zhang family of Huaiyuantang is not only a prominent family in Jinyun Kingdom, but also a noble family among the human race. Inheriting the hereditary noble title of the family, the title of Earl of Changfeng is not an unknown person in the entire Weiyi subcontinent. If you are really a descendant of the Zhang family in Huaiyuantang, the Zhang family will definitely not just watch a family descendant die. Wanted in a foreign country and ignored? If you are really arrested, what will be the face of Huaiyuantang?"

Zhang Tie's eyes widened. He didn't expect the Zhang family of Huaiyuantang to be so awesome. The head of the family is actually a nobleman in the human race, with the title of Earl of Changfeng. Thinking of this, Zhang Tie immediately had a flash of inspiration in his brain, as if he suddenly understood something. All the worries are actually based on his previous identity and social relationship. If he becomes a member of Huaiyuantang at this moment, then...

"You are.…"

"The head of the secret police of the Norman Empire is Baron Pompeii, who is also a hereditary nobleman of the Norman Empire. Baron Pompeii and Marshal Lin Changjiang, the governor of the northern border of the Norman Empire, have some problems. Do you think a viscount would be willing to arrest him? Is a person who is insignificant in his eyes going to offend a count who is also a human noble? If you didn't kill dozens of secret police in Brape in one go, this matter can't be covered up, and you don't want to be wanted publicly You really can't face it, otherwise, even the royal family of the Norman Empire would not offend an earl family in the human race for no reason, let alone a viscount of the Norman Empire. I bet you that as long as you If you don’t take the initiative to run to the gate of the secret police headquarters in Nottingburg and call out that you are Zhang Tie, there will never be a single person in the secret police in the entire Norman Empire who will dare to trouble you! And because of this reason, Although you have left the Iron Horn Legion, the Iron Horn Legion will probably treat your matter coldly, as long as you don't take the initiative to clamor to go back, there will be no problem."

After what the old man said, Zhang Tie immediately had a feeling of seeing the sun behind the clouds. It turned out that what he was most worried about was simply a joke, just a show, and it was just some big shots doing it for others to see for their own face. of.

If he didn't have the background of Huaiyuantang who suddenly ran out, the arrest warrant really had this background, and the conflict with the secret police that day was originally a conspiracy designed by Major Franka, then this The arrest warrant is not so much a arrest warrant as it is a polite deportation order that does not welcome his public appearance in the Norman Empire as Zhang Tie again. The Iron Horn Legion has also acquiesced, and this is the three-party compromise after the arrest warrant. result. At this moment, I guess I am a transparent person in the Norman Empire.

Just as unexpected things often happen in a person's life, the probability of the worst situation that many people are most worried about in their lives is actually very low. Zhang Tie's experience once again confirmed this sentence. What he didn't expect happened, and what he was most worried about was completely black humor.

Poor Major Frank!

His arrest warrant was fake, but his arrest warrant probably couldn't be truer. Not only the imperial military, but even the secret police are probably looking for him quietly. The basket he made in Bulape really made it big.

This trip to Jinpeng Bank was really the right time, Zhang Tie said to himself in his heart.

"If my expectations are correct, as long as your parents receive your message and the people in Huaiyuantang know that you are in Karur now, they will definitely contact you and tell you the details of taking you back!"

"How do they contact me?"

"Since you contacted your family through Jinpeng Bank, as long as you stay in Karur for a few more days, they only need to go through Jinpeng Bank to get in touch with you!"

Zhang Tie's heart brightened instantly, and he let out a long breath. He looked at the old man sincerely, and said very seriously, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome, young man, because according to the rules of the bank, you will be charged for talking to me!" The old man blinked.

Zhang Tie laughed loudly, "No problem, it's worth the money!"

"Then, do you think that including the 36 gold coins you sent the message to your family, plus my consulting fee, the service fee of 100 gold coins in total is not too expensive this time?"

"Not expensive!"

"Then what else do you need?"

Zhang Tie scratched his head, glanced at the ring of vitality on the table again, and gritted his teeth, "I don't have so much money with me now, can I mortgage this ring to you first?"

"Yes!" The old man glanced at Zhang Tie, "If this ring is to be mortgaged in our bank, we can issue you a credit line of 8,000 gold coins. This time, the 100 gold coins will be included in your credit line. The interest is calculated on a daily basis according to your loan from the bank, until when you redeem the ring. If you need money urgently, there will be a very large-scale auction at the Souls Auction House in Karur City in two days , you can entrust the ring to us and give it to Sols Auction House to help you auction it. If it is auctioned, the starting price of this ring will be above 10,000 gold coins. It should be able to sell for a good price. It is up to you to decide whether to mortgage or auction !"

"Auction?" Zhang Tie's heart skipped a beat.

"Yes, the auction, the annual winter auction held by Sols Auction House in Karur City, is very famous in the original Andaman League!"

...

Ten minutes later, Zhang Tie left Jinpeng Bank, which was different from when he came. When he left Jinpeng Bank, the bank sent a car and took him directly to Karur City. Don't take it to auction.

Although the rune equipment made of mithril is rare, for Zhang Tie at this moment, its function is not as real as the naked and heavy gold coins. In Karur at this moment, the piles of war refugees make Zhang Tie truly understand What is money can not move an inch. As long as he has money in his pocket, even if the people from Huaiyuantang can't come to pick him up, he still has more space and resources to move to Jinyun Country by himself. Moreover, Zhang Tie planned to quietly return to Heiyan City after Karur finished participating in the auction.

More importantly, apart from some weird things, this auction will also have some things that Zhang Tie is particularly interested in, for example, the large number of golden unicorns prepared for alchemists...
