Chapter 55: Chapter 54 Four Seasons City and Yellow Fiery Horse (Seeking Chase Reading)
Translator: 549690339
We have arrived, young master.
Milton Cheney, who was meditating with his eyes closed in the carriage, heard Williams voice and then opened his eyes.
So soon?
Milton pulled the curtain apart and indeed saw a grand city gate before him.
There stood two fully armored guards in front of the city gate, their gaze fixed straight ahead.
However, compared to the walls and gates of the Far East City, those of the Four Seasons City were noticeably much smaller.
Being a city on the fringe of the Far East Territory, most of its inhabitants were from other territories. As opposed to the tranquility of Far East City, this place was rather chaotic.
But under the deterrence of the Golden Lion Family, the people here dared not cause trouble.
The carriage entered the city smoothly. Although the guards did not recognize William, they recognized the emblem of the Golden Lion Family.
None dared to impersonate a member of such a family in the Far East Territory.
Young master, I will not linger in the city any longer. As Milton got out of the carriage, William, on his horse, spoke.
Leaving so soon?
Hearing Miltons words, William nodded.
His only responsibility was to bring Milton to the Four Seasons City. After that, he had to return to the central area of the Golden Lion family.
After all, the journey through the kingdom was Miltons solo venture, and even if he wanted to, William could not stay by to protect him.
With his departure, William also took the familys carriage away.
Now, other than money, Milton had nothing, although, this was more than sufficient.
He carried a cloth bag filled with a map, gold vouchers, and some letters prepared for him by Earl Arthur.
Milton looked around, truth be told, he was completely unfamiliar with Four Seasons City, a city in his familys territory.
The only familiar thing to him might be the name of this city, the Four Seasons City.
As Milton surveyed his surroundings, a man seemed to muster his courage and approached him.
Sir, it seems like this is your first time in Four Seasons City. I am a city guide for Four Seasons City. If theres anything you need, just let me know. I can guide you for just one silver coin.
Blaye also felt a little anxious. Originally, he did not have Milton as his target.
Because they, the so-called Four Seasons City guides, were basically those intimately familiar with the city.
This profession was birthed by the unique geographical location of Four Seasons City.
As this was a frontier city of the Far East Territory, most of the people here were first-time visitors, hence the existence of this profession.
They all had a pair of insightful eyes.
Milton seemed to be a noble, who even had a dedicated carriage for transportation, showing an extraordinary momentum.
However, the carriage left after just a brief moment, leading him to assume if Milton could be a down-and-out noble?
A Four Seasons City guide?
Milton asked with interest, to which Blaye nodded.
Good, lead me to the nearest bank first, I need to exchange some money.
Milton did not reject the proposal. Although he would not be in Four Seasons City for long, having a guide was certainly convenient.
Moreover, one silver coin meant practically nothing to him.
Seeing Milton agree, Blaye suppressed his joy.
This job was not as easy as imagined, not to mention the fierce competition, the price of a single silver coin was not something ordinary people would willingly pay.
A single silver coin in Four Seasons City could afford a few good meals. Most people would rather stumble around like headless flies than hire a guide.
Sir, do you want me to help you carry these things?
Blaye immediately got into work mode and casually offered help.
No, leading the way will be enough.
Milton refused
Hearing Miltons refusal, Blaye did not show any peculiar emotions but enthusiastically introduced everything about Four Seasons City to Milton.
Through Blayes narrations, Milton gained some understanding of this city lying on the border of the Far East Territory.
Sir, weve arrived. This is the Royal Bank of the Frostwinter Kingdom in Four Seasons City.
Upon arriving at the destination, Blaye stopped and respectfully said to Milton.
Milton then shifted his gaze to the bank in front of him.
Although called a bank, it was actually a three-story tower.
Milton understood this to be the unique architectural style of the Royal Bank.
In all the cities throughout the kingdom, there was only one type of bank, the Royal Bank.bender
There were already quite a few people coming and going in front of the tower.
Sir, I can wait for you outside.
Before Milton could speak, Blaye, showing great tact, offered.
Milton Cheney nodded his head and stepped inside the bank.
Young master, how may I assist you?
As soon as he entered, a decent-looking young girl in a uniform approached him and politely asked.
Milton assessed the girl, his gaze unchanged.
I need to exchange some gold vouchers for gold coins.
Young master, come with me. Could you tell me how many gold coins you need to exchange? Ill lead you to the corresponding window. Milton gave it a slight thought and then spoke, Lets start with a thousand.
Upon hearing this, there was a glint of delight in the girls eyes.
Very well, young master. Ill guide you.
Her voice had softened considerably.
As Milton put it in his previous life, she was sucking up.
The girl led Milton to the appropriate counter and then departed.
The process of exchanging gold coins went smoothly. The Royal Bank had been standing in the Frostwinter Kingdom for hundreds of years and had naturally figured out the most efficient method.
The bank teller handed Milton a bag filled with a thousand gold coins.
Milton took the bag and lifted it, finding it to be rather heavy.
Of course, this heaviness was relative to an ordinary person. For Milton, this weight was virtually negligible.
Back in the lobby, Milton saw the girl who had just led him to exchange his gold coins.
As he passed by her, Milton casually picked a gold coin out of the money bag and handed it to her.
A tip.
Milton spoke calmly, seeing the surprise and delight in the girls eyes.
Thank you, young master!
The girl realized she had encountered a generous noble and bowed respectfully in gratitude.
Milton caught a glimpse of pure white.
It must be said that this show of gratitude was quite whiteSorry, quite respectful.
Once he had exchanged his gold vouchers for coins, Milton gave Blaye a gold coin.
Youve worked hard these past few days.
Young master, I assure you Ill come at your call. Nobody knows Four Seasons City better than I do!
Blaye responded cheerfully. Milton was the first generous and polite noble he
nau seen.
People he had served in the past never regarded him appropriately.
Miltons simple comment made him feel hed be willing to die for such a person.
Milton firstly requested Blaye to find him a place to stay. He would likely be in
Four Seasons City for a couple of days, so naturally, he needed accommodation. As they passed by the shops, Milton bought a small money bag with three silver coins.
The money bag was rather small, the size of a palm, and could hold at most fifty gold coins.
Blaye acted quickly and soon found a decent inn in Four Seasons City for Milton.
This type of inn, similar to a mini-apartment block, was the first choice for most visitors in Four Seasons City.
At the inn room, Milton first summoned the spatial key from his spiritual sea, then stored the gold vouchers and map in the small dimension space.
He only kept the small money bag and fifty gold coins from the money bag.
In the following days, Blaye guided Milton around Four Seasons City.
With the gold coin that Milton had paid, Blaye became extremely enthusiastic.
In what felt like a blink of an eye, three days had passed.
They were in a horse farm in Four Seasons City.
Young master, this is the best horse in our farm. I promise you wont find a better one in the whole of Four Seasons City!
Before Milton, a portly man in extravagant clothes spoke with assurances.
Is this a Golden Lions Head?
Milton touched the steeds pale golden mane before him and spoke.
Dont joke around, young master. How could a small city like Four Seasons City have a Golden Lions Head? However, this Yellow Fiery Horse here does have a bit of the Golden Lions Head bloodline. It could easily travel a thousand miles a day!
The fattys tone got a bit awkward.
Milton realized that the horse farm owner wasnt lying. Having looked around, this Yellow Fiery Horse was indeed the best in the farm.
Milton then nodded his head.
Ill take it.
ps: Thanks to insomniagain and zg farmer for the monthly tickets. Love you guys..
