"Do you think this shell is pretty? I searched for a long time to find it. ”

"What do you think of giving it to Vera, or to Jiajia, or to Delin, Su Ran?"

"Do you have any shells in that world?"

"What's the name of this island?"

"What are you going to eat when you go back at night?"

Xia Jia said that she didn't want to talk, but Wei Jia'an wanted to talk to her instead. He asked her many questions in a row, not only did he not get a reply, but he was not even treated with a look.

Xia Jia did not bury his head in his arms again, but looked at the boundless sea in the distance. Wei Jia'an watched with her, and after a pause, he asked, "The sea is really beautiful, isn't it?" ”

It turned out that so many questions could be understood as deliberately provoked, this sentence seemed to be emotional, he thought Xia Jia would answer, but he didn't expect to get any response.

He looked at her, his loose black hair covering his ears, and his face was particularly beautiful in the bright light, and he said, "It seems that you really intend not to say a word to me unless I say I'm going back." ”

The girl still didn't react, didn't affirm or deny, she made up her mind.

Wei Jia'an sat on the reef, swaying his legs like a child, his trouser legs rolled up to his knees, looking left and right at the gap in the reef to pick up a small pebble and throw it out, only to hear a small splash of water with a pop sound, and picked up a small shell and threw it out, not flying far away and being blown away by the sea breeze.

He stared at the sea, and suddenly thought of a way to get Xia Jia to speak, and he felt that he must be able to.

He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and turned on the computer: "Xia Jia, you have been our maid for two months." I said that I would give you 500 yuan of pocket money every month, but now it is 1,000 yuan. I promise to keep it for you and give you an interest rate of six percent per annum. Calculate how much money you've put with me now......"

While chattering, he used the computer to calculate the accounts, and out of the corner of his eye, he found that she was still looking at the sea, and he said: "Calculate the interest rate, calculate the interest, and you will put it with me now for a total of one thousand and two dollars and five." ”

After he finished speaking, he found that Xia Jia looked over, and secretly thought that it was really a greedy dragon, and there was no way to refuse the question involving money, and then heard her speak: "No, you miscalculated, I put it with you for a total of two months of pocket money of 1,000 yuan, 1,000 times the annual interest rate of 6%, and then divided by 12 months, 5 yuan a month of interest, and 10 yuan for two months, so it is 1,000 yuan." ”

On the beach, the tide comes up and pushes down the little crabs. Wei Jia'an said: "Didn't you say you wouldn't talk to me? ”

"Just say it, what's the big deal." Xia Jia said indifferently, and then looked at him and solemnly declared, "Don't try to cheat my money, I remember my money clearly." ”

Wei Jia'an smiled: "Yes, just say it, what's the big deal, it's really fragrant, it's really fragrant, the truth of this world is really fragrant." He paused, "But I didn't cheat your money, and if you count the interest, you will only put it here for one thousand and two dollars and five, not one thousand and ten dollars." ”

"Don't look at me like I'm cheating on you." He stretched out his fist and stretched out his fingers in turn, "Let's do the math, it's very simple, at the end of September, let's count it as October, I'll give you five hundred pocket money, two yuan and five yuan a month interest, plus five hundred yuan in November, isn't it one thousand and two dollars and five?" ”

The black hair swayed gently in the sea breeze, Xia Jia frowned: "No, it's still not right, I put a thousand yuan with you, and now I have helped you work for two months, one thousand yuan and ten yuan for two months, I didn't miscalculate, it was you who were wrong." ”

"My sister...... "Wei Jia'an thinks why do you want to say that my sister likes to show weakness?" My sister, I said it so clearly, don't you still understand? ”

He took out his mobile phone to show her: "You will be our maid at the end of August, count September, and I will give you five hundred if you do it for a month to October." From the beginning of October to now, there is only one month, not two months. The work is two months, and the interest is only one month. Five hundred will be given to you in November, and that five hundred will not count the interest. ”

He noticed that she was stunned, and he asked, "Do you understand?" ”

Xia Jia pursed her thin lips, tilted her head slightly, and whispered a little embarrassed: "I don't understand too much." ”

"So," Wei Jia'an leaned back, his hands propped on the reef, "I'm sorry I heard Vera say that you, as a dragon, have been an adventurer for so many years, and you don't have any money at all. You don't even know how to do arithmetic, no, you can do arithmetic, but you don't have any logical ability, and people don't know anything if you go around a little. ”

"Not only that," he pulled the hair from his bangs, "Think about it, your various low-limit performances in the past two months, what people say and believe, only care about immediate interests and ignore risks, and be self-righteous...... Just like you, you are still thinking about various investments and playing stocks, and I really convince you. ”

She muttered quietly, "I want to make money." ”

"If you want to make money, you can't do this, the way to make money ......" Wei Jia'an smiled, "I'm also just an ordinary person, I've been helping people work, I'm not a billionaire, I can't make money, I can't help you make any money." ”

He tilted his head to look at her: "The only thing I can do, I can only help you keep the money." There is no way to make money, but it will keep you from being cheated out of money. As long as I am here, I guarantee that your money will only increase, not less, and suddenly become a poor egg. ”

"What if you take my money and run away?" She asked.

"Looking into my sincere eyes, do you think I'm that kind of person?"

"I think you're that kind of person."

"Don't be angry." Wei Jia'an said, "If I lie to you, I will allow you to eat me." You haven't always liked to talk about cannibalism, cannibalism. ”

"If you dare to lie to me, I will definitely eat you." She stressed that the expression was not a joke.

"Good, good." Wei Jia'an said, he remembered what he had chatted with Vera before, "Hey, Xia Jia, I heard Vera say, your dream is to earn a gold mountain, and lie on the gold mountain to sleep every day, right?" ”

"Can't you?" She asked rhetorically.

"Okay, it's good to have a dream." He said, "Even if we help you calculate, at least in our world, the total amount of gold in the world may not be enough to pile up a mountain of gold the size of a house to make you lie down in dragon form." Well, how big is your dragon form, fifteen meters or twenty meters? ”

"I know it's hard to ......," she whispered, "so it's a dream." ”

"Yes, it's a dream, and it doesn't matter if the dream can't be completed." Wei Jia'an said, "You stay here just to want Vera to help you get your commission back." Hehe, you demolished the building of the military headquarters, I don't know how much money you have to pay for others, how much is left of the 100,000 gold flying dragon, maybe you have to post it upside down. Yes, that's it, how do you think Vera's sister can help you get money? ”

"Don't say that, or I'll eat you." She said that she didn't know when she used to use "eat you" as a threat.

When the wolf came, he said it every time, and the number of times it became so many that no one believed it anymore. Wei Jia'an ignored her threats: "In short, if there are 100,000 gold flying dragons, Jin Shan can't do it, a gold coin bed should still be okay, right?" ”

"The gold coin bed will do the same, I'll just take it."

"It's a pity it's all over." Slapping people in the face, Wei Jia'an said.

She stopped talking, was in a bad mood, and didn't mention cannibalism.

Wei Jia'an couldn't look at it, he said, "Xia Jia, just take a moment." We don't want gold mountains, we don't want gold coin beds, and copper coin beds are not bad. Let's make a bed made of pennies, and the new pennies are beautiful and shiny, and it doesn't feel worse than any gold coin, right? ”

"It must be a beautiful gold coin."

"That's not no way, I've said I'll do it."

"That's fine, can you get it for me?"

"What." Wei Jia'an said, "I'm just making a suggestion, you pay for it yourself, and do it yourself." I'll help you do the math, five hundred dollars a month is a thousand five-cent coins, or in a few years you will be able to have a bed like that. ”

"It's going to take a few years......"

"A few years are very fast, and they will pass all at once."

"Indeed."

Wei Jia'an looked at her, thinking to himself, I'll just say it, you're sure? Yes, a few years is probably not a long time in terms of the lifespan of a dragon. He said, "Actually, Xia Jia, do you know? You are our maid, you help us do so many things, and it is really very little to only give you five hundred yuan of pocket money every month. ”

"I know. Then you can give more, five thousand, no, fifty thousand. ”

"Then I'd better do it myself, and I don't want you to be a maid. As I said, you can work like Bria used to, and you can definitely get a lot of money a month. ”

"I don't want to go out."

"Then it can't be helped."

Wei Jia'an thought for a while and said, "We can only give you five hundred yuan of pocket money, otherwise it will be strange to hire you like a nanny and pay your salary." ”

"But correspondingly." He said, "We'll help you buy clothes, pretty maid outfits." Help you buy a mobile phone. You have nothing to do, how to eat, how to play. You don't want to cook, you have to play cards, you want to watch TV, I'll work for you. When you're away from home, everyone has gifts, and you can't be less. We are not masters and maids, we are friends. ”

"Even then, add some pocket money."

"No, I'll give five hundred."

"Hmm...... Five hundred is five hundred. ”

"I want to get one with 500 pocket money every month...... Even a bed made of five cents would take a long time. ”

"yes." She nodded desperately.

"Let's do it."

"What?"

Wei Jia'an said: "As long as you work as a maid for a year, I will help you get a bed, put five cents coins, a coin, and find a way to ask for a dozen silver coins, a few gold coins, and some diamonds...... No, colorful glass gemstones, messy pearl necklaces, jade bracelets or something, a bed of parallel treasures. ”

"I can't guarantee how much it's worth." He wondered how to design such a bed, "I can only promise that it will be beautiful." ”

"That'll do fine." She excited.

"Don't rejoice too soon." Wei Jia'an pretended to be careless, "In addition to being a maid for a year, I also want you to take me to fly occasionally and let me touch my tail, what's the point?" ”

Xia Jia hugged his tail at that time, showing a vigilant expression.

"No way, who made Xia Jia's big tail so cute."

She said politely: "I thought you were a good person......"

"Well, I'm a good person." Wei Jia'an laughed, "If Xia Jia really doesn't want to, then forget it, don't touch your tail if you don't touch it...... Haha, you look so cute...... I'll help you get a bed like that, too. ”

"Okay, then?" She held up a finger, "A maid for a year?" ”

"Yes, maid for a year. If Xia Jia is willing to do it for a little longer, so much the better. Xia Jia said, "I like Xia Jia to be our maid, very beautiful, but also very stupid." If you make a mistake, just let the head knock. Biting this, can you be a little more restrained, once a month? And that big tail, cute big tail. ”

appeared, and she subconsciously bit the tip of her tail, this time like biting the head of chopsticks.

He asked, "How does Xia Jia feel about living like this?" ”

"It's okay."

"Xia Jia thinks it's good, I'm very happy. didn't have much money, but he still gave Xia Jia a good life. Wei Jia'an nodded, he suddenly jumped off the reef and stretched out his hand to her: "Well, Xia Jia is in a better mood, right?" Don't sit here anymore, let's wander around together, this little island far off the coast may be hiding pirate treasures. ”

"How can there be pirates' treasure in such a place...... she said, and jumped off the reef with him.

"There's nothing to do anyway." Wei Jia'an tilted his head slightly to look at her, "Xia Jia, can I still touch your tail?" ”

He watched her expression change from sunny to cloudy, and raised his hand in surrender: "Okay, I know the answer." ”

"Here you go, Tail." She gave him a dragontail sweep.
