31. We are not merchants

Hearing this, Xiao Nan and I were stunned.

I wondered, "Miss Phyllis, what does this mean?" ”

Phyllis pondered for a moment, took out the magic contract from the bar, and said, "Did you forget about this thing?" ”

After Phyllis reminded me, I remembered that the magic contract had not been terminated until now, and she had stopped us in time.

I breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Miss Phyllis, how's it going?" Has the contract been broken? ”

Phyllis shook her head and sighed, "I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do about this contract. ”

"Can't do anything?"

Xiao Nan and I glanced at each other, what does it mean that we can't do anything?

Xiao Nan asked tentatively, "Is it because you haven't been able to decipher the meaning of the words?" ”

Phyllis shook her head.

I wondered, "Why?" ”

Phyllis sighed lightly and said, "You two have been trapped. ”

"Trapped?" Xiao Nan and I were stunned at the same time.

A bad feeling rose in my heart.

Phyllis explained: "You were cheated from the beginning, I studied it all night last night, and finally figured out the contents of this magic contract, in short, you two were sold to me by Tilith for a thousand gold coins, and to be honest, not only you two, but also cheated." ”

Phyllis waved the magic contract in her hand helplessly, and said: "This is a magic contract that has set a trap, and the effect of this magic trap is: once the content on it is cracked, the contract will take effect immediately." Damn the Flower Elf, this bastard, owes me a thousand gold coins, and it's all gone down the drain now. ”

After a moment's hesitation, I asked, "So, what exactly is the content of this contract?" ”

Phyllis said: "The approximate meaning is that she found me two laborers and signed a deed of sale for life, and these two laborers are worth a thousand gold coins, and my debts with her will be paid off...... Forget it, I can't go on, you better see for yourself. ”

Phyllis said as she shoved the magic contract into my hand.

I took the contract, and Xiao Nan also put his head over, and we looked at it together.

The text on the paper did not change in the slightest, it was still the hieroglyphic form of a bunch of irregular geometric figures that I had seen before, but this time, the text was as if it had a translation system, and the content was immediately apparent.

Similar to what Phyllis said, this magic contract is the deed of sale between me and Xiao Nan, and it is a deed of sale for life, and the employer is Phyllis. Now that the contract has been made, the debts of the two of them have been written off, and we have been sold...... Tillis's exact words were that Xiao Nan and I killed an adult white phosphorus spider with our bare hands, and this ability is definitely worth this thousand gold coins.

Before, I thought that this fluttering moth was really grateful to us for saving our lives, sending things and healing wounds, but it made us both a little flattered......

Tiris, a stingy ghost, has always remembered to avenge her spider, and has set a trap for us, just waiting for us to take the bait!

I instantly felt ...... The two of us did a stupid thing, we were sold and we helped people count the money, which was really stupid.

I gritted my teeth and said, "What will happen if this contract is torn up now?" ”

Phyllis shrugged her shoulders and said helplessly: "Tear it up, anyway, the contract has already taken effect, even if you tear this contract up, it won't help." ”

Xiao Nan asked timidly on the side, "That...... What will happen if we don't accept the contract? ”

Phyllis: "It's nothing, it's just that it's going to die." ”

I subconsciously asked, "Folding Shou?" How many years is it folded? ”

Phyllis thought for a moment and said, "If the term of this deed of sale is only one year, then the life of the deed of sale is one year, and the deed of sale for life is for life...... It's going to die directly, right? I'm not sure though, maybe you can give it a try. ”

Cold sweat broke out on my forehead, who would dare to try this kind of thing?

"Perhaps......," said Phyllis, "you may come and work for me, and once you have earned me a thousand gold coins, we will not owe each other, and you will be free." ”

As she spoke, Phyllis counted with her fingers on a plate.

"I'll do the math, I'll arrange you a higher-paying career, don't you ...... How about an ant catcher? There are 50 silver coins a month, 100 for two people, and 1 gold coin is equal to 100 silver coins, rounded off...... Not much, just give me a job for 84 years. ”

I almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, 84 years is not much? Also rounded? Are you kidding?

What now? Xiao Nan and I glanced at each other, and we both saw a helpless look in each other's eyes. You can't just accept your fate, can you? 84 years, in other words, even if you work for a lifetime, you may not be able to pay back the money until the day you enter the coffin.

"Hey......" I said, "Those thousand gold coins are your business with Tiris, why are you involved in them?" Besides, how does she owe you such a large sum of money? You're not going to cheat us, are you? ”

Phyllis sneered, "What's the use of you telling me? I'm a victim too, am I? Unless you have what it takes to get that bastard to hand over the gold. ”

"That's right!" Xiao Nan seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly said, "We still have a whole sun-dried tree dragon meat in the car, how much can we sell it to you?" ”

Yes, after Xiao Nan's reminder, I remembered that before leaving, Tiris had stuffed us with a tree dragon, according to her, this thing is worth a lot, and I don't know if it can offset the debt this time.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at Phyllis with anticipation.

Phyllis thought seriously for a moment and said, "I've seen that tree dragon, it's more than two meters long, hmm...... If you do it yourself, you can sell it for 200 gold coins, and if you exchange it for the Werner Chamber of Commerce dismemberment and packaging auction...... I guess I can sell it for 1,500 gold coins......"

Hearing this, I exhaled softly, looked at Xiao Nan and smiled: saved.

Of course, another thought came to my mind at the moment: why would this damn fluttering moth be able to pay her debts for her when a single tree dragon could pay her debts for her?

"But ......," Phyllis said, "There are 1,000 gold coins in it, and even if the damn flower elf pays me back, I can only give you 500, which means that you still have to work for me for 42 years, and I will wipe you zero, just 40 years." ”

The entire hall fell silent for an instant.

"Damn, you J merchant!"

I saw Phyllis show a strange smile and said:

"Please pay attention to the words, you are already employees of the Werner Chamber of Commerce, and the purpose of our Werner Chamber of Commerce is known to the world: we are not businessmen, we are just a group of young people who have come together with a common purpose of making money, not to mention J businessmen, not even businessmen."

"You ......"

Finally, I couldn't suppress the mouthful of old blood in my chest.
