Chapter 42 Business is a science

Harugion's climate has always been mild and humid, with monsoons bringing enough rain to the city and ocean currents bringing abundant seafood. Now is the time of year to go out fishing, not only for the local fishermen, but also for the tourists who come here to rent a boat and experience the thrill of returning home with a full load of experienced fishermen.

Renault and his party also came to the charter shop.

When the busy boss in the hall saw a few of them, he first walked towards them with a smile on his face, but after seeing the faces of several people, his expression suddenly became cold.

"Are you a few again, hurry up and get away, my boat here won't be rented to you anymore." The boss said angrily.

"What's the situation?" Renault asked in a whisper.

"I rented a boat from here when I was on a mission, but the boat was eaten by a monster...... Lisana whispered.

"Eat...... Eaten. A few drops of cold sweat appeared on Renault's forehead.

"But we've already paid the compensation." Mira argued.

"Okay, I see." Renault put on a polite appearance, smiled and said to the boss: "I'm really sorry about what happened before, but since we have already paid compensation, how about simply writing it off, since you are open to business, all kinds of accidents are inevitable, why bother targeting these children?" ”

The boss glanced at Renault up and down, and asked angrily, "Are you their division commander?" ”

Renault shrugged and did not deny it. His outfit and appearance did look a lot older than his actual age, after all, his previous identity was a mercenary, compared to the magicians who wanted to solve everything with magic, the mercenary experience was obviously richer, and the handling of things was more tactful, at least on the surface, Renault was much more reliable than the three Mira siblings.

After confirming Renault's identity, the boss instantly turned on the pouring bitter water mode, he pulled Renault's collar, and burst into tears for a while: "What the hell is going on with your goblin's tail, every time it appears, it will cause a lot of trouble, originally that monster only occasionally scared and scared lone swimmers, but since it knew that it could swallow the boat, it has now begun to attack the fleet!" ”

Without waiting for Renault to make any indications, the boss said to himself: "Also, I don't care if you damage the boat, anyway, it's not bad to destroy it in the hands of the magicians, but when the monster attacks, you magicians have a way to avoid it, but you shouldn't leave the sailors on the boat!" ”

As soon as Renault heard this, his eyes suddenly became stern, he turned his head and stared at the three sisters and brothers tightly, and his tone was extremely cold: "You only care about your own escape, and you left others on the ship and sent them into the mouth of the Demon Beast?" ”

No wonder Renault reacted violently, this is the worst act in any industry, and it can never be forgiven.

Magicians also have their own professional ethics.

"It's just a moment...... Besides, the man was obviously rescued by us. Mira's voice was quiet, but she kept arguing that the truth was not so bad, and she didn't want Renault to misunderstand.

"That's fine." Renaud breathed a sigh of relief, and it was also the instinctive reaction of normal people to make subconscious avoidance behaviors at the moment when danger came, but in this case, not forgetting to go back and save others, the nature became completely different.

"What a fart! Our best helmsman was almost swallowed by the monster, okay, he's just an ordinary person, but he can't compare to you powerful magicians, and now he has left a deep psychological shadow, and he can't go to sea for a long time, do you know how much of a loss this is for us? You're embarrassed to come to me to rent a boat? Hurry up and get out of the way, as far as you can. ”

The boss waved his hand impatiently and told them to go away like garbage, and the three siblings all looked gloomy, but Renault smiled instead.

"Twice the fare." I have to say that he is not surprised by the boss's face, whether it is the previous crying or the later reprimand, in fact, it is just to pave the way for the final price increase, and it is the nature of businessmen to pursue profits, since it is better to take the initiative in their own hands in advance.

"Don't you understand, it's not about money......" The boss's face really changed, but he still insisted.

"Triple as much!"

"You know, helmsman he ......"

"Five times, I don't need your people to drive the boat, but I have to pick the boat myself, sign the contract if I promise, even if I refuse, there is not only you here." Renault calmly offered a price that the boss couldn't refuse, and then he stepped in front of the boss, leaned on his ear and whispered: "Almost take it when you see it, this trick is okay to fool those chicks, let's just dry it with the insiders, by the way, I forgot to introduce myself, I'm from, Oftori." ”

As soon as the name of the mercenary city came out, the boss suddenly understood that he had met an expert, and the words he had prepared were swallowed into his stomach, and even pretended to be polite and said: "It turned out to be my own person, I said it earlier, why do we bother to do this effort, in this way, I will give you a discount again, as long as 3 times the boat fare, after all, in addition to that kind of thing before, I also need some protection, as for the boat, you can choose at will, as long as this dock can run on the water, all of them are below, all kinds of models are available, you are satisfied." ”

Renault nodded at him, took the three sisters and brothers into the dock to pick up the boat, and only walked a few steps, when he heard Lisana behind him ask puzzledly: "Brother Renault, why do we pay so much more to rent a boat here, isn't it good to go to another house?" ”

Renaud smiled and explained: "If you don't tear your face, it's better not to do it, this involves a matter of integrity, you destroyed this ship before, and next time you will go to another house, this is not a good behavior, and you are not a regular customer, just a novice who comes to adventure, according to the unspoken rules here, you can only be slaughtered more ruthlessly when you go to other houses." Although the bosses here are in competition, they are in the same city after all, and this tacit understanding is still there. ”

"Then what did you just say, why did you make the boss change his face all of a sudden." Mira, who had been paying attention to Renault's movements, asked.

"It's nothing, I just told him that I'm an insider, and their little tricks are useless to me, and if they want to stab me when I've already made a profit, it's on our side, and then his competitors don't have to be polite."

"I see, Brother Renault, you know a lot." Lisanna suddenly realized and looked at Renault with admiration.

"Cut, it's just some experience, and when we get to his age, we'll be stronger than this guy." Mirajane said unconvinced.

"Then you have to come on, I may not be much older than you, I'm afraid I don't have much time left for you to study." Renault was in a happy mood and couldn't help but tease Mira.

"What? So are you the same age as your sister? This time it was Ayluffman, who didn't like to talk much.

"Hmph, at such a young age, he is so old, and he has no vitality of a young man at all." Mirazhen muttered, but unexpectedly, a trace of complexity suddenly flashed in the girl's eyes, and the aggression in her tone suddenly became a little less.

However, Renault did not have the time to pay attention to this, he was busy observing the various ships moored on the dock, and at last, he stopped and looked at a small boat in front of him with satisfaction:

"That's it!"
