Chapter 63: Three Silver Coins
Pete has always had a secret that he wants to marry Fanny.
Pete and Fanny are childhood sweethearts who grew up in the same village. When she was a child, Fanny was a shy and timid little girl, and she would only be mischievous when she followed Pete's ass, and Pete would take Fanny with her for everything, plant cherry trees together, decorate pine trees for Christmas, and repair the lush flowers and plants in the yard together......
In Fanny's memory, Pete couldn't have been more caring.
He never asks Fanny to do the dirty work. Carrying water, Pete would be shirtless, showing off his not very strong muscles, carrying a bucket in one hand; Hide and seek, Pete will deliberately let Fanny find it; Even on rainy days, Pete carries Fanny on his back, and he is afraid that the mud will stain Fanny's shoes.
In the eyes of Fanny's parents, Pete is also a good boy, he is hardworking and cheerful, and he seems to have inexhaustible strength and energy, plus Pete's parents were kind to their family in the early years, and at the age of eight, they made a marriage contract for Pete and Fanny.
The accident happened the following year, when Pete's parents died one after another, and Pete became an orphan and became helpless.
On the other hand, Fanny was sent to the Illuminati to be baptized, fortunately, the priest took a fancy to the little girl, saying that it was a rare pure soul, Fanny was valued by the Illuminati, and every month the Illuminati gave a stipend of a silver coin, and Fanny got her wish to be received by the head of the Paladin, which was a rare honor in the small village.
Receiving a good education, Fanny began to learn aristocratic etiquette and would go to the Holy Street to pray every weekend.
But Pete was still the scruffy boy with a runny nose.
What made Pete feel unattainable was that Fanny entered the Mage Academy last year. The fiancée in Pete's heart became sacred, which brought out his insignificance.
In order to keep up with Fanny, Pete made the most daring decision of his life, he sold his field and house, and went to the royal capital with three silver coins in his belongings.
Because only in the royal capital, he has a chance to make a fortune, he does not want to become a nobleman, he wants to save enough money. Bought a nice yard in the royal capital and married Fanny. He knew very well that Fanny's parents no longer looked down on a poor boy.
Pete wants to become a knight of the noble family, a profession that is both honorable and well-paid.
He found a job running errands for the nobles, but was driven away within a few days because he was really dressed sloppily. He often drags his nose, which makes the guests very unhappy.
After trying many careers. Pete came to the Warcraft Market and began to use all his belongings to buy and sell Warcraft, he looked for various channels to buy Warcraft cheaply, and then resold them to stores, or directly sold them in the market.
Recently, there has been a trickster in the Warcraft Marketplace, a little guy who resembles Frost Snow Pychumon.
Pete, who was in the Warcraft Market, could tell at a glance that this little guy was not Frost Snow Pychumon, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Frost Snow Pychumon had the same length of limbs, because they were used to being in the smooth snow. Climbing on the trees, this little thing looks more like a squirrel.
Of course, it can't be a squirrel, the squirrel is not as smart as it, and it has caused a miasma in the Warcraft market in the royal capital. In the end, Pete used the method of catching weasels in his hometown to catch them, and then used a trap to catch them.
"It doesn't matter if it's a monster or not, you can sell it as a pichu beast!"
Pete put the little thing in a cage and sold it for a whole morning, no one cared, and the people in the royal capital were very smart, and no one would do such a bad thing.
Soon, Pete was on top of a group.
A mage, with a group of apprentices, Pete glanced at the group of people, the female mage must be difficult to deceive, the mage is a representative of wisdom and strength, not to mention that she looks so shrewd. The other apprentices were a bunch of rookies who had never seen the world before, and they ran around curiously.
Pete lifted the cage higher and shouted louder.
"Frost Pychumon! Five silver coins can buy a level 4 Warcraft! ”
Because it was a fourth-level demonic beast, many apprentices left without looking at it, and Master Rou Shao explained that apprentices could only buy demonic beasts below the third-level level.
Still, an apprentice came over, and Pete couldn't wait, and he looked at the other man, and the seldom-seen black-haired girl, who seemed to have neither the arrogance of a nobleman nor the cowardice of a pauper, was a reluctant good buyer.
The reason why Xia Yi was attracted was entirely because of the cuteness of the "Frost Snow Pychumon", which sat in the middle of the sawdust, with a big belly, holding a large duck pear, and gnawing with two front teeth with relish, as if it was not being sold.
"Miss Mage Apprentice, look at this Frost Snow Skinchu Beast, it's cheap and beautiful, I think you will like it." Pete is not very skilled in business, and he is not as good as other shopkeepers.
Shay teased the Pichumon, this little thing is too calm, it seems to be still a juvenile, only the size of a squirrel, maybe it is the influence of the druid, Pichumon looked up at Chay, its little paws hugged the pear that he had gnawed many holes, as if to hand it to Chay, two round eyes looked at her.
"Click......"
Because it was too small for Pichumon to convey the message completely, Xia Yi had to guess as a gesture of favor to her.
"Can you open the cage?" Shay asked Pete.
"Better not, the Frost Skin Duck is very flexible, and it can spit out ice cubes, which is not small, and it will hurt you." Pete kindly reminds that he is mainly afraid of the Pichumon escaping.
"No problem."
At Shailly's repeated requests, Pete reluctantly opened the cage, and the Frost Cheek Beast did well, at least it didn't run away, and Pete knew very well how good this guy could run.
Holding Pichumon in his hand, Xia Yi pinched its ears, which were a bit like cats, only a model larger than cats, like two tea bowls on their heads. Xia Yi knew that this little guy with short forelegs and long hind feet was not a Frost Snow Pichu Beast at all, so he was relieved to hold it in his arms.
Its ears resemble Mondo's, and Shay thinks so.
Pichumon stuck out her tongue at Pete like a demonstrative and lay comfortably on Shay's arm, and Shay was amused, she poked Pichumon's big belly, which was soft and lackluster, and she didn't know how much food it contained.
"Pete!" Ressa's cry made Pete frown.
"I didn't expect to see you here." Ressa said to Charity again, "Charity, this is Fanny's little fiancé!" ”
Pete is very unhappy every time he sees Ressa, there are some people, not a big evil, to say that Ressa's bad habits, at most is competitive, like to compare, is the kind of person who makes you unhappy when you ignore her, ignoring her makes you stingy, anyway, it is from the same village as himself, Pete raised a reluctant smile to say hello.
"Yes, Ressa, I didn't expect to see you here."
"Let me see, Pete, what are you doing? Sell Warcraft? I heard it just now! Poor little Fanny, if she knew that her fiancé was doing a small business on the street in a tattered dress, she would be embarrassed to serve the god of light! ”
Ressa circles around Pete like a victorious peacock, and Pete is a rooster that has fallen into the water.
Pete didn't want to talk to her, he knew that he wasn't worthy of Fanny, and he didn't need Ressa's reminder, so he turned to Xia Yi and said, "Does this mage apprentice lady know Fanny too?" How is she now? ”
In fact, Pete wants to ask, how Fanny has been living recently, has she had a noble boyfriend, Pete heard that there are many small nobles in the Mage Academy, and they like to play with civilian girls the most. The inexplicable inferiority complex made Pete unable to ask.
"Fanny is very nice, she often mentions you to me."
Xia Yi looked at Pete carefully, he was wearing a straw hat, and his face was still yellow and black, and he was a good young man.
In fact, Fanny rarely mentions her fiancé because Fanny is shy and embarrassed to mention having a fiancé.
"Really?"
Pete's eyes flashed, his depression that he had almost given up was suddenly gone, and he regained his spirits, as long as Fanny approved, he would not despair, and Shay's comforting words did a lot of work.
"Slug, you don't daydream anymore, Fanny won't marry you mud leg! She'll soon marry the son of a viscount! Ressa struck mercilessly.
"You big-mouthed woman! Better keep your stinky mouth shut! Otherwise I'll knock you back to the countryside from the Warcraft Marketplace! Pete was not so polite to the women except Fanny, raising his fist and threatening.
"You! Hmph, we'll see, mud legs! ”
Although Ressa has a talent for spells, she can't even spell a spell, so she holds back for the time being, and then comes to clean up this wild boy who is disrespectful to her.
Xia Yi didn't have the heart to get involved in this childish bickering, she had already borrowed five more silver coins from Master Rou and decided to buy this "Frost Snow Pichu Beast".
But Pete waved his hand, returned the money to Shay, and said, "You are Fanny's friend, I don't take your money, I just ask you to do me a favor." ”
Soon, Pete pulled out a silver coin from each pocket, and kept his belongings with him at all times to prevent Goldfinger from visiting. Pete scraped together three silver coins and handed them to Shay.
"You give it to Fanny for me, tell her to wait two years for me, and I'll have the most gorgeous wedding for her!"
After saying that, Pete turned around and ran, not even taking the cage away, under the brim of the hat, Pete's eyes became extremely determined, he decided to give up the small business of Warcraft and go to do something big to ensure that his fiancée was not snatched away!
Xia Yi suddenly felt that the three silver coins in her hand were heavy, and she gave birth to a sense of identity, all along, she was more like a passerby, whether it was an abandoned land or a human country, she always looked at an outsider.
It turns out that I have unconsciously begun to like and integrate into this world.
Some love is so cheap that it can be carried by three silver coins, but it is very precious.
