There is no doubt that Lei Xiao’s next destination was naturally to find Kun Bu, the president of Kongqing Town Chamber of Commerce, who accidentally rescued Kumbu, a president of Kongqing Town Chamber of Commerce in the forest a few days ago.
If it weren't for that guy, I wouldn't have obtained the information about the Magic Shadow Forest where the territory is located and the surrounding areas so quickly.
The most important thing is the important information that the two human countries are fighting.
Of course, there is also the second-level magic potion Qi Condensation Pill, and the other party’s lost light crystal stone.
Because of this relationship, in order to further understand the detailed information and power distribution of Kongqing Town, Kunbu is naturally his preferred breakthrough.
Having said that, since Kumbu is indeed very famous among the surrounding merchants.
So, after a brief inquiry, it took less time for Lei Xiao and Konoha to come to a shop called "Song of the Nightingale".
Although the size of this shop is far less than the Shanglu Fair just now, among the surrounding shops, it is undoubtedly the most eye-catching and grand.
"Welcome to the Nightingale Song!"
As soon as he entered the door, a young man who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old immediately came up and said politely to Lei Xiao and the Konoha in a slightly immature voice: "This store mainly sells all kinds of top-notch knitted products, aromatherapy and glass products.
It can be wholesale and retail, and professional private customization can also be provided. Please choose between two guests."
"We are not here to buy things, is your boss here?"
With a slight wave of his hand, Lei Xiao went straight to the subject.
"Who is looking for me?"
Before the young man could reply, a middle-aged man with a big belly and a brocade robe walked out of the inner room of the spacious shop. There was no doubt that the person coming was naturally Kombu.
When he got closer, after looking up and looking up and down at Lei Xiao and Konoha who had been disguised, Kombo couldn't help but look puzzled on his greasy face: "Do you two know me?"
Directly opposite him, Lei Xiao did not answer, but took off the hat on his cloak, and his original appearance was immediately exposed to Kunbu's eyes.
"So it's my master, you are here! Hurry up, please come inside!"
On the other side, Kunbu immediately recognized Lei Xiao, who had saved his life in the Demon Shadow Forest and sent someone to escort him, and couldn't help but say shocked and happy.
Of course, the main reason why he was so enthusiastic was that Lei Xiao accidentally revealed the aristocratic identity of Nan Xing.
The noble young man who is guarded by his masters is obviously a commoner businessman like Komb who has a little money but is more eager to make power, and a big man who is eager to make friends with.
In this way, after respectfully putting Lei Xiao and the knotweed into the ornate reception room in the inner room.
While using a beautiful glass teapot, Kunbu carefully poured tea, and seemed to inadvertently asked Lei Xiao, "I wonder what instructions do you have to do when you visit the villain today?"
"You are polite, you can't tell me the order. I'm just a little bit more affordable recently. I want to see what the overall environment of this town is. If possible, I want to do some small business here."
Smiling slightly, Lei Xiaoyong was ready to speak and responded: "Because I have always been more conservative and never fight unprepared battles.
Especially the overall safety factor and guarding situation of the city are important criteria for me to consider.
So, if you can, please give me some advice.”
"Sir, you're asking the right person!
I have to say that the villain really admires your unique vision!”
Hearing this, Khumbu knew that his chance to perform had come, so he quickly began to introduce it: "In fact, the scale and strength of this Kongqing Town have long reached the standard of a small city.
However, because the current city lord was afraid of paying more taxes to the imperial royal family, the change was not made for a long time.
As for the safety of the city, the lord should be assured that the garrison troops directly under the city lord alone currently have more than 2,000 people in power.
Under the command of the City Lord, there are several powerful third-level powerful men, including the City Lord himself, too…”
Next, Lei Xiao learned through Kunbu's meticulous description.
The military strength of this Kongqing Town is extremely impressive.
First of all, the city lord himself is a third-level nine-star powerhouse.
It seems that the aura of the third-level peak powerhouse that the Konoha had just entered the city was undoubtedly the city lord himself.
Secondly, there are three loyal third-level powerful men under the city lord.
One of them is responsible for about 2,000 people, and is basically a standing army of city defense composed of first-level soldiers.
The other one is the city lord's personal guard composed of elite second-level soldiers and a size of about 100 people.
As for the last one, he had already brought another 1,000 standing army troops to the battlefield on the imperial border.
"In this way, in addition to the third-level strongman and 1,000 first-level soldiers who were recruited.
At present, is the main defensive force in the city composed of three third-level strong men, 100 second-level strong men, and 2,000 first-level soldiers, including the city lord himself... "
At this moment, Lei Xiao couldn't help but show a thoughtful look.
"Sir, besides these regular troops, there are two important forces in the city."
Immediately afterwards, Kunbu continued to say while adding tea to Lei Xiao: "That is the major resident mercenary groups and the Shanglu Trade Fair."
"Oh? The Shanglu Fair is also one of them?"
When Lei Xiao heard this, he said in surprise.
"It seems that the adults have already learned about the business and mainland transactions."
On the other side, Kunbu put down the exquisite glass teapot and said, "The Shanglu family, one of the wealthy families in the empire, has two third-level powerful men in charge in this business in Kongqing Town. Their own guards have nearly a hundred people.
One is the president himself, and the other is the chief appraiser Master Fang Hai.
However, it is said that the president of the trade fair in Kongqing Town belongs to the sidelines of the Shanglu family and is not very popular with the family. Therefore, he was assigned to a remote place as far away as Kongqing Town."
"I understand." Nodded slightly, Lei Xiao asked again: "What about the other mercenary force?"
"If you want to go back to the emperor, the mercenary forces in the city will be a bit complicated."
After taking a sip of the steaming black tea, Khumbu began to introduce it again: "There are more than 1,000 mercenaries in the city in total.
Among them, there are a small number of mercenaries led by the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Group, with about 200 people, and they are wearing pairs of pants with the city lord.
When the garrison army was not convenient for them to come forward, these people often did some shameful dirty work for the city lord.
Therefore, with the support of the city lord, these people are usually domineering in the city, which makes everyone dare not speak out.
However, the villain just heard that Shui Mang, the deputy leader of the Blood Scorpion, seemed to have been inexplicably poisoned by food..."
"Maybe it's retribution."
