Chapter: 59
good! There is a proverb that says that a cane is the best self-defense weapon for a gentleman. It can be used as half a crowbar. Holding a gun in one hand and a cane in the other is the way civilized people fight!
Amidst his thoughts, Klein made up his mind, turned around halfway, and turned into the "Wilkel Cloaker Shop".
The layout of the cloakroom is very similar to the clothing store before he crossed over. On the left is a row of formal clothes against the wall, in the center are shirts, trousers, vests and ties, and on the right are pairs of leather shoes and boots in glass cabinets. .
"Sir, what do you want to buy?" A male clerk in a white shirt and red vest greeted him and asked politely.
In the Kingdom of Loen, because the gentlemen with status, power and wealth like to wear white shirts, black vests, black trousers, and black suits, the colors are quite monotonous, so male servants, shop assistants and waiters are required to wear bright colors. , Or colorful, to distinguish between master and servant or noble and humble.
In contrast, ladies and ladies dress in different colors and gorgeously decorated, while maids can only match black and white, or white and black.
Facing the male clerk's question, Klein thought for a while and said, "The walking stick, be heavier and harder."
The kind that can blow other people's heads off!
The clerk in the red vest gave Klein a sneaky look, led him into the store, pointed to the row of walking sticks in the corner and said, "The one inlaid with gold is made of ironwood, very heavy and hard, 11 soli and 7p, you Want to try it?"
11 soli and 7 pence? Why don't you grab it? Isn't it great to inlay some gold? Klein was taken aback by the price.
With a calm expression on his face, he nodded slightly and said, "Okay."
The red vest clerk took down the heartwood cane and handed it to Klein carefully, as if he was afraid that he might damage the goods.
As soon as Klein took over the cane, he felt the weight. He tried to move it, but found that he couldn't swing it smoothly.
"It's too heavy." Klein shook his head and breathed a sigh of relief.
This is no excuse!
The clerk in the red vest put back the heartwood cane, pointed to the other three and said, "This is made of walnut, made by the most famous cane maker in Tingen, Mr. Hess, 10 soli and 3p... this is made of sinking wood. Inlaid with silver, as hard as steel, 7 soli and 6 pence... This is made of the heart of the white Burly tree, also inlaid with silver, 7 soli and 10 pence..."
Klein tried them one by one, and found that the weights were more appropriate. Then, he tapped on them with his fingers to roughly grasp the hardness of each cane. In the end, he chose the cheapest one.
"Just the one that sinks into the wood." Klein pointed to the silver-encrusted staff head in the hands of the red vest clerk.
"Okay, sir, please go with me to pay over there. If this walking stick becomes worn or stained in the future, you can hand it over to us for free." The red vest clerk led Klein towards the counter.
Klein took this opportunity to unfold the four gold pounds held in his palm, and took out one of the two smaller ones.
"Hello, 7 soli and 6 pence." The clerk behind the counter saluted with a smile.
Klein originally wanted to maintain the dignity of a gentleman, but when he stretched out his left hand holding the 1 gold note, he couldn't help but asked, "Can it be cheaper?"
"Sir, these are all handmade, and our cost is very high." The red vest clerk replied next to him, "And the owner is not here, so we are not qualified to help him reduce the price."
The clerk behind the counter echoed, "Sir, I'm sorry."
"Okay." Klein handed over the banknotes, and took the black walking stick inlaid with silver on the top of the stick from the red vest clerk.
Waiting for the change, he took a few steps back, opened the distance, and tried the effect of the "off-hand weapon" in a small way.
Woo! Woo! Woo!
The sound of the wind was heavy, and there was texture in the void. Klein nodded in satisfaction.
He turned his gaze forward again, preparing to see banknotes and coins, but was surprised to find that the red vest clerk retreated far away, and the person behind the counter shrank into a corner, clinging to the double-barreled shotgun hanging on the wall.
The Loen Kingdom implements a semi-control policy on hot weapons. If you want to own a gun, you need to apply for a "full class weapon use certificate" or a "hunting certificate". Arms control things like six-barreled machine guns. JrNovels.com
