Chapter 021
The next morning, Tang En turned over as soon as he opened his eyes and suddenly heard a "crackling" sound like fried beans.
"Damn!" Tang En helped his back and grinned: "Is this a bone-reducing skill? Has half of his life been shrunk!"
Since Tang En's total blood and energy value has reached the learning conditions for some skills, he was very excited to learn skills last night.
After reading it up and down, he decided to learn bone shrinking skills first.
Tang En still remembers that the old housekeeper had demonstrated the effect of bone shrinkage to him before. "Crack, Crack, Crack", the old housekeeper, about six feet tall, instantly turned into a child, like a Transformer, which was really magical.
But it was his turn to "k, kid, kid" - Damn it broke...
According to the old housekeeper, Tang En's bones have been formed and the best time to learn this skill has long passed. Now if you want to learn, it is inevitable that your bones will be interrupted and reorganized.
Whenever the bones are broken too hard, the old housekeeper is clean and neatly and reorganizes his body. Well, let's do it again...
So within about two hours, Tang En's bones were interrupted and reorganized, and the pain was not something that normal people could tolerate. Fortunately, Tang En had special training on pain, and although he kept screaming, he did not have a mental breakdown in the end.
After two hours, Tang En fainted in the system space and slept until dawn.
Tang En changed the bandage to the wound, and the injury on his back was not yet improved, but according to this trend, it only took two or three days to do so.
When he went out, Tang En asked the hotel owner about the situation of buying a house in Laiyan City and was told that it could be handled at the City Affairs Department.
The City Affairs Department is located in the middle of Laiyan City. After explaining the purpose of the visit, the lazy City Affairs Department official raised his hand and pointed to the direction of the wall, signaling Tang En to see it himself.
There were a lot of notes posted on the wall, which were clearly written on it, and the size, location and price of the house were all available.
After reading it, Tang En couldn't help but stumble. The cheapest house on it was 100 gold coins, and the most expensive house in Dongcheng District was priced at 200,000 gold coins. Tang En only had about ten gold coins in total, and none of them could afford it.
No house price is cheap... Tang En touched his nose and sighed.
"Sir, do you buy a house?"
"Huh?" Tang En turned his head in shock and saw a half-grown boy with a cleverness all over him looking at him with a smile.
“But the house price is too expensive, is it?”
Seeing Tang En nodding, the young man said quickly: "You can count the houses sold here with one hand. Believe me, the men of the City Affairs Department have never been a business man. I have grown up in Laiyan City since I was a child and are familiar with everything here. If you can trust me, I will help you find a suitable house. After that, you only need to pay me 3 silver coins."
Tang En said unanimously: "How do you tell me to believe what you said?"
"Sir, you can ask me. I know almost everything about Laiyan City."
Tang En's heart moved: "I heard that a nobleman was assassinated yesterday..."
"Yes, sir. The dead man is called Delk Vinson, who is the eldest son of the Viscount Delk family. The assassin is the number one assassin in Laiyan City, Ghost Face."
Tang En opened his mouth and stared at the half-large boy in front of him: "How did you know?"
The boy took out a stack of gray paper from his pocket and handed it over: "Sir, if you are interested, there are still some details on it."
Tang En took it and opened it. The paper clearly stated "Vissue Delk's eldest son was assassinated and died." Below are some specific contents, including the assassin's ghost face, some situations of the Delk family, and some traces of the assassination scene, etc. At the bottom of the page, a black and white picture was also drawn, which was the way an assassin wearing a ghost mask inserted a dagger into the other party's chest.
"What's this?"
"Laiyan tabloid, sir."
"Newspaper?" Tang En was in a daze, and a ridiculous sense of time travel came to his heart. This kind of thing he had never read before, but now it made him feel a urge to burst into tears.
"Sir, sir...how about it, have you decided to use me?"
"Okay, it's you." Tang En calmed down and pointed to the newspaper and said, "But you have to tell me first, where to buy this?"
"Of course there is no problem." At this time, the boy looked very excited and said quickly: "Every morning, it is sold in the dock and Dongcheng District. The price is 10 copper coins, so only the nobles in the Dongcheng District and the merchants in the dock will buy it."
After pausing, the young man looked up and said proudly: "The contents on this are mainly about the business situations in various places and the experiences in the city. I would rather buy it when I was hungry every day. I know that this information will bring me wealth one day."
"You will definitely become an outstanding businessman." Tang En said with emotion as he looked at the clever boy.
"Thank you, my name is Allen."
"Arthur..."
…………
In the residential area of the southwest corner of Laiyan City, in front of a two-story small attic.
"Mr. Arthur, it's here. This house has been around for a while, but it's well maintained inside. It's not large in size, but it has a yard behind it. If the owner wasn't eager to take action, he would definitely not be able to buy ten gold coins."
While speaking, Allen went up and knocked on the door.
After a moment, an old woman, who was slightly hunched, opened the door. She was not surprised to see that it was Allen, so she let them in.
Alan greeted the old woman and took Tang En inside: "This is the owner of the house. Her son asked her to move in with them, so he sold the old house."
Tang En nodded, walked around the attic, and then went back and looked at the yard.
To be honest, the house looks just like an ordinary one. Although it is two floors, it is relatively small in size. However, Tang En is very satisfied with the terrain here. It is located in the southwest corner of Laiyan City and is relatively remote, which is very suitable for him to live in.
Crazy...
Just as Tang En was looking around in the yard, there was a sound of paper flipping from the yard of the adjacent room on the right.
Originally, the sound of paper being blown by the wind was very light, but there seemed to be hundreds of large pieces of paper being blown up in the yard next to it, so the sound was in an uproar.
Alan explained, "There is a, uh...a painter, who is probably drying his paintings again."
Tang En nodded suddenly.
"This painter is not simple..." Allen said with a mysterious expression.
"Oh, what famous painter is it?"
"I don't know whether he is famous or not. The things he draws are so scary. What I mean is that his identity is not simple. His name is Robert Beth, but he is the eldest son of Count Robert, the lord of our city of Laiyan!"
"Huh? It's him..." Tang En was stunned. At the Vinson party, when Bevin suddenly arrived, he heard the noble young man talk about this person, and it seemed that he was not liked by Count Robert.
"Tsk tsk, I really can't figure it out. If you are not good at the eldest son of the earl, what kind of painter are you..." Allen obviously disagreed with Beth's actions.
"He's here?" Tang En asked curiously. This count's eldest son is doing too miserable.
"Mr. Arthur is not our Laiyan City people, right? Everyone in Laiyan City knows this. This Bess is a nerd who paints something strange. The city lord asked him to take care of family affairs, but he ignored it. One day, the city lord got angry and tore his drawings, and it ended up in a turmoil. Later, Bess moved out of the Robert family and came here to live. He didn't go out every day, and he just focused on painting. He heard that the angry city lord was going to break off the father-son relationship with him."
"It's really a weird thing..." It turns out that literature and art are a disease!
After a small episode, Tang En finally decided to buy the house.
The old woman simply collected the money and gave the land deed to Tang En. However, Tang En would have to wait until tomorrow to move in. After all, the old woman's things need to be cleaned up.
After leaving the door, Tang En took five silver coins to Alan, who looked excited, and asked him for the address. Tang En also saw that Alan was indeed familiar with Laiyan City, and if he couldn't take it, he would ask him if he had something to do.
Although there are still a few silver coins left in the pocket, Tang En is in a pretty good mood. After all, he has a house clan!
