Chapter 329 Thebes
At the border between the Valenci Empire and the Gallinan Empire, a caravan of dozens of people was driving horse-drawn carriages slowly towards the pass of the Gallinan Empire!
I saw the knight at the front of the team holding up a big flag with a big golden word "Tang" written on it!
On a carriage at the back of the team, a young man in black clothes and black hair leaned against a bag of medicinal herbs on the carriage, looking at the increasingly desolate scenery, and couldn't help but marvel at it!
Compared to the scenery of the Valenci Empire, the scenery of the Gallinari Empire has fewer and fewer green plants!
Instead, there are large amounts of rocks and deserts, and there are fewer and fewer green plants!
It seems that the surrounding environment gradually changes from green to yellow, giving people a desolate feeling!
Even the air seemed to dry up. Asura licked his lips and looked around. The border pass of the Garinan Empire was right in front of him!
The Tang family's background is still very powerful. After all, even the royal family of the Garinan Empire has to seek elixirs from the Tang family, so the team was allowed to enter the country without being inspected!
Asura also successfully entered the Garinan Empire as a guard of the Tang family. After entering, he did not leave the team, but followed the team to Thebes, the city closest to his destination!
After seven days of travel, Ashura and his group finally arrived in the city of Thebes!
I saw that the entire city was built on a huge Gobi Desert. The city walls and buildings inside the city were mainly khaki in color, and even many plants had yellow leaves!
Asura also felt it was very novel. He looked here and there along the way and memorized all the new things. Maybe he would use them when telling a story next time!
The men and women in Thebes all wore headscarves, as if to protect themselves from the wind and sand. Their not-so-delicate skin showed how harsh the environment was!
Moreover, water here actually needs to be purchased. All the major wells in the city are occupied by various forces, and the city lord only supplies a jar of free clean water to the residents every day!
If you want more clean water, you have to buy it from the wells controlled by major forces. Asura asked about the price, and found out that the price of a jar of water is almost catching up with the price of food!
He suddenly thought that if Jinze was here, would he call a few water magicians from the family? There is a big business here!
Thinking of Jinze and how he had been looking through his badges every day recently, but there was no news about his grandfather, which made him upset but helpless!
After saying hello to the warrior leading the Tang family team, Asura left the team on his own!
After thinking about it, I decided to go around the city and found the Goldlion Trading Company. Judging from the size of the Chamber of Commerce’s door, the influence of the Goldlion Trading Company in the Garinan Empire is not that big. The one with the largest door is the Khun Sa Trading Company!
After Ashura walked into Goldlion Trading Company, a waiter came over and asked him what service he needed.
Asura said that he wanted to see the person in charge here, and the waiter looked Asura up and down without leaving a trace!
Then he took him to a reception room, politely asked Asura to wait for a moment, and went to call the manager of the local business!
Another waiter prepared tea and brought it to Asura. It seems that no matter where they are, the lives of rich people will not be affected!
Asura had just taken a sip of tea when he saw a shrewd middle-aged man with golden hair walk in!
As the middle-aged man smiled at everyone he met, he glanced at Asura who was sitting there subtly!
He then came to the conclusion that he had never seen this young man before, and that this black-haired young man was not the offspring of any noble family in the city of Thebes!
As the person in charge of the Goldlion Trading Company in Thebes, he does have some ability to judge people!
Even so, the blond man maintained a polite smile. After a slight bow, he asked, "I'm Hunter, the manager of Goldlion Trading Company. What does this friend need from me?"
Asura smiled slightly at the polite supervisor, then raised his right hand and handed over the token that Jinze had given him!
The smiling supervisor, Hunter, almost fell to his knees when he saw the token and quickly ordered the waiter standing by to leave.
As soon as the waiter closed the door, Ashura quickly said, "I'm not your young master. Don't be nervous. I'm your young master's good friend!"
"I came here today to bother you because I want to find out something. Don't be nervous!"
After hearing what Ashura said, Hunter quickly knelt and said, "Sir, if there is anything I can do, please tell me!"
"I've been operating in Thebes for over a decade now, and I know almost everything that happens in the city!"
Ashura nodded after hearing this, and after a moment of contemplation, he said, "Has your Goldlion Trading Company issued any missing person missions recently?"
After hearing Ashura's question, Hunter quickly reacted, asked Ashura to wait, and ran out of the reception room!
A moment later, he came in with a scroll and spread it out to Asura!
There was only a portrait of my grandfather Qin Zongren, as well as my grandfather’s personal profile, such as his occupation as a doctor, etc.!
Hunter saw that Ashura was somewhat moved by the painting and knew that he had guessed correctly. He quickly said, "Headquarters sent someone to deliver this portrait more than half a month ago!"
"It is said that wherever our Goldlion Trading Company is located throughout the King's Continent, this missing person portrait will be distributed!"
"Headquarters wants us to find out about this person and report it to headquarters immediately!"
Asura was very grateful to Jinze when he heard this. Boss Jinze really treated his affairs as his own!
Ashura then asked: "Did you find anything here?"
Hunter said with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry, sir. I've arranged for everyone below to report to me the first person who sees the portrait. I've also inquired at pharmacies and clinics in the city, but there's no useful information yet!"
After hearing this, Ashura still thanked Hunter. Hunter was so frightened that he fidgeted and said quickly, "Sir, you don't have to thank me. I will definitely do my best to do this!"
"First, this is an order from headquarters, and we must carry it out diligently! Second, anyone who finds this old man surnamed Qin or provides useful information will be promoted one level!"
"So whether it's for public or private reasons, we will do our best to do this!"
"With the power of our Goldlion Chamber of Commerce, I believe there will be results soon!"
When Asura heard these comforting words, he just nodded helplessly, staring at his grandfather's portrait with a frown!
Hunter wiped the sweat from his forehead, and suddenly seemed to think of something. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare to!
Asura immediately noticed his abnormality and asked quickly, "Director Hunter, do you have anything to say?"
Hunter gritted his teeth and thought for a long time before saying, "Sir, our Goldlion Company has very strict penalties for taking credit for something!"
"I...a waiter from our company seemed to have seen the Mr. Qin in the portrait buying water in our city!"
"What?" Ashura jumped up suddenly...
