On the tenth day of exploring the valley along the river, I passed through the last canyon and walked out of the vast mountains and peaks. Everyone finally came to a low hilly plain. After passing through a dense forest outside the entrance of the canyon, scattered settlements began to appear.

According to the distance, the distance to the west of this place should be the junction of Provence and Lombardy. It seems that the distance from the valley along the south of Lombardy is more than twice as short as the eastern border of Provence. This is also the result that Atte is most willing to see. This trip to the valley along the river confirmed his speculation-the shortest distance from the coast of the southern continent to the northern countries should be this valley that communicates north and south, and sporadic records in history should be true.

This result made Yat very excited...

Suddenly, the group of people who walked out of the dense forest of the valley did not panic in the scattered settlements at the valley entrance in the hilly areas. The villagers along the way who saw people coming out seemed to have received some instructions, took out salt, linen, ironware, farm tools, clay pots and other items from their homes that had been prepared for a long time and rushed towards Yat.

Yat and his men didn't know the intentions of these people, so they were so scared that they quickly held the bow and held the sword.

It turned out that these Lombards outside the valley regarded Yat and his group as mountain people who came out of the mountains to trade. In previous years, there would be a team in the mountains carrying precious fur, bacon, herbs, nuts, dried mushrooms and other hunting goods in the mountains, with Lombards outside the valley to exchange for salt, iron pottery, cloth and agricultural tools that could not be produced in the mountains.

Judging from the actions of the leaders in these sporadic settlements, it is obviously a routine that has been formed all year round.

However, when the Lombards found that the group of people who suddenly rushed out of the valley were not the mountain people who would be handed over once a year, the Lombards immediately became nervous. They quickly ran back to the village with their goods. After a while, the alarm bell rang out, and there were also young and strong guards holding sickles, axes and iron forks and farm tools at the entrance of the village.

"It seems that we are regarded as bandits and robbers from the mountains." Ron looked at the Lombards who were hiding in the village and could not shrink their heads, and slowly put down the bow and arrow in his hand.

Yat glanced at the Lombardy civilians holding farm tools and iron tools in their hands, looking horrified, and lifted the reins, "By the settlement and move on."

The group rode away under the nervous defense of Lombardy civilians.

The next journey was roughly like this, but the Lombards did not trade things like the valley entrance settlement. I think that in ordinary days, the mountain people only traded valleys with a few settlements in the valley entrance. I guess they did not want to attract attention outside the valley.

After leaving the valley, the warmer the weather is, the more different the customs and customs of the foreign countries along the way.

The original owner of Yat's body was originally a Lombard, but when he entered this world, he was in Burgundy in the north. The Lombardy in his memory was always vague. Now that he is in person, he feels the gap between the north and the south.

Lombardy is a southern country built by a trade country. More than half of the citizens are merchants or make a living by trade. Therefore, in the blood of Lombardy people, in addition to the sleekness of merchants, there is also the enthusiasm and tolerance.

The character of this southern trade country becomes more and more obvious as it goes south, especially in market towns. For example, in other countries, currencies are usually not common. The coins carried by Attes from Burgundy must be exchanged into the guild vaults in Provence. Even if the other party collects foreign currencies, it will generally slaughter high exchange taxes at the same time. However, this situation does not exist in southern countries like Lombardy. Any manager of larger shops and hotels is familiar with the exchange ratio of currencies in their own country. They will tell you directly how much money you need to pay based on your accent, and almost every hotel can exchange local currency for Lombardy.

Shortly after leaving the valley and hilly area, Yat and his men stayed in a market town hotel for a night. The next day, Yat changed into a business leader's outfit, and Ron and the other four were all dressed in a caravan guard.

Yat called the hotel bartender last night, handed over a few local coins worth less than one Finney, and then the bartender gave Yat a detailed description of all the big and small cities around the market town.

The next morning, Yat set out south with four "caravan guards". The place they were going to was a city called Ravati.

Lavati is not unfamiliar to Yat, because the city called Lavati is two days south of a Baron Castle called Sorenburg, which should have been called Wellsburg ten years ago.

Ten years later, Yat was finally ready to go back and take a look.

Lavati, north of Sorenberg, is the most prosperous city in the surrounding area and the largest city in the northern mountainous areas of Lombardy. Lombardy is a trade country with many free cities in the borders. This Lavati is an autonomous city. Unlike the lord castles, these places that are completely autonomous by citizens have a complete urban governance system.

In less than a day, everyone came outside the city of Lazati.

Ravati is built on the low hills, winding and circling. With the municipal center square as the origin, many towering towers and ancient red houses aged wine are radiating around. The rugged stone roads and winding alleys divide the city into many fragments, each of which shines with brilliant light. The most exquisite one is located on the Pin-shaped hills and takes the momentum along the mountain, so the roads are narrow and uneven, with complex lines and crisscrossing. Sometimes, the "line of the sky" can be seen. The tall houses squeeze the ancient and quiet alleys extremely narrow, and the bright sunlight is blocked. The door handles on the tall arches are carved with exquisite relief patterns. When you look up, you can see faded and curly blinds.

In the city, there are luxury merchants and ladies in gorgeous clothes and vendors who are traveling in and out of shops and stalls. Outside the city, there are caravans carrying mules, horses and livestock, and caravans carrying horses, ox carriages and ox carriages.

Ravati is a city without high walls, which is impossible in the northern countries, but is common in the Principality of Lombardy. There are many such unprepared cities. The confident Lombardy urban citizens have a strong army of urban citizens, and they are confident that they can withstand any hostile visitors by relying on these teams more well-equipped than the palace army.

On the road to entering the city, there were also city security soldiers wearing half-body armor, spears, and long steel swords on their waists patrolling. They often patrol the streets in groups of ten people under the leadership of officers. In addition to the security soldiers patrolling on foot, they occasionally saw elite city guards riding armored horses, wearing full-body armor, and holding spears parade. With these well-equipped people, no one in the city dared to make rash at will.

Since Yat and his group were riding horses and swords, they could be regarded as a team with unstable factors, they were stopped by a group of patrolling security soldiers just after they came in from the north of the city.

Yat stated that he was a businessman who came to Lombardy from Burgundy to look for business opportunities. Yat originally planned to explain it again. The person who looked like a security officer did not hear Yat say much, but just explained that he should not cause trouble in the city and let him go.

The group found a hotel nearby, and left two guards to take care of the horses and then Yat took Ron and Matthew out of the hotel to wander around in the city with their purpose...
