Chapter 156: Retarded Green
"Master, are we really going to stay here for two days?" In the room, Fariyah couldn't help but confirm the itinerary with Green, "There's nothing here." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
Green opened the window and put two magic bolts into the window to act as a guard: "Question: What is the fastest way to get money?" ā
Farier thought for a moment: "Robbery? ā
A subtle expression appeared on Green's face: "Uh...... If war is also a robbery, then the speed of robbery is indeed quite fast, but in addition, the vast majority of robberies are high-risk and low-profit behaviors. Even if you finally grab a vote, you still have to be exploited by black market merchants, and the profits you get in the end are not as good as those who do business. ā
Fariyah: "So...... What do you mean? ā
"The fastest way to get money, of course, is to dig up treasures!" Green said confidently.
Farier's eyes were warm when he looked at Green, like he was looking at a retarded person!
As a follower of Pero, Farier does not discriminate against the mentally retarded, but rather sympathizes with them.
Farier's eyes hurt Green a little: "Do you think I'm a fool?" ā
"No, mages are known to have a high level of intelligence." Farier's eyes were warm, "So I'm sure you're smart. ā
The corners of Green's mouth twitched: "Forget it." I won't tease you. You should have seen the "Future Chronology" released by the Tower of the Prophet, right? ā
"Of course." Fariyah frowned, "This year is the 'Year of the Chaotic Clock', this should be a meaningless prophecy, right?" ā
The Prophet Tower is one of the most famous neutral law organization in the Io world, and the members of the organization are mainly composed of mages who specialize in prophecy, although the combat power is not strong in the mage organization of the Io world, but it has great influence, and the "Future Chronology" released after they predict the future is also the most commonly used chronological method.
The Future Chronology is a way of chronology in which the soothsayers consume their lives to peek into the future before they die, and summarize and write according to the future situation they have glimpsed.
Because the future is full of fog, the soothsayers peek into the future with only small fragments, and these fragments are not necessarily all meaningful: for example, "The Year of the Climbing Thieves" is because the Prophet sees a thief climbing while peeking into the future; "The Year of Flowers and Midsummer" is because the prophet sees a sea of summer flowers when he prophesies; The "Year of the Grey Barrel" is because the prophet saw a grey barrel when he predicted that year......
This kind of prophecy is meaningless!
"The Year of the Clock of Chaos" is the year of the year on the Chronology of the Future, in which the soothsayers see a clock of chaos as they peek into the future. It's an ominous prophecy, but most people don't think it's meaningful, but Green knows that it symbolizes two things: the fall of the Time Keeper and the arrival of the Time Fans! It also means that the "things" that have been banished by the Time Keepers into the gap between time and space will reappear in the world of Io, and that time is tomorrow!
"No, that prophecy is a great prophecy. Something big will happen tomorrow and something will appear. Green said confidently, "If the prophecy I get is correct, there will be a kingdom-level treasure here tomorrow!" ā
Hearing Green's words, Farier couldn't help but be moved: "...... Is your teacher the Tower of the Prophet? ā
"It's a secret." Green smiled slightly, "Have a good rest tonight, and then go digging for treasure tomorrow." ā
Farier looked down and thought for a moment, "Do you need me to call Ikashi back?" ā
"No, you don't." Green waved his hand, "Let her go and get in touch with the locals, so that it will be easier for us to get help from the locals in the future." ā
After dinner, I took a shower and slept soundly.
The next morning, after Grimm and Farier had breakfast, they dragged Icassi, who was sleeping in, up.
"Aha~" Ikashi wore a vest and walked lazily downstairs to finish breakfast.
"Alright, I'm done. What are you doing waking me up so early? Ikashi lazily picked at his teeth with a toothpick.
"Next we're going to buy...... No, let's go lease a mine pickaxe. Green pulled out his money bag, "We only have two gold coins left now, and if we don't think of a way to make a profit, we will have to sleep in two days." ā
"Pickaxe?" Ikashi looked puzzled, "What are you going to do?" ā
"Go dig for gold." Green grinned and said, "Okay, you don't have to worry about it, just follow my instructions." ā
Ikashi shrugged: "Okay, you're the boss, you have the final say." ā
Yoder was a small village and didn't have any veins, so there weren't many pickaxes in the village, so Grimm took a turn and rented out all the pickaxes in the village for two copper coins a day - Green also signed a contract and paid two days' rent in advance.
When Green asks for a lease for the pickaxe, the villagers look at Green as if they are mentally retarded, and even Ikasi thinks that Green's brain is broken.
"What the hell are you doing, little ghost?" Icassi was also a little worried about Green's head, "Lease a pickaxe for two copper coins a day?" What are you thinking? And a piece of parchment is eight copper coins, and then you use it to sign a contract that is only worth two copper coins? ā
"Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! Green waved the parchment in his hand, "These aren't contracts worth two copper coins. It is clearly written on it, liquidated damages, one hundred gold coins, so this is a contract worth one hundred gold coins each. ā
"Huh?" Icassi thinks Green has gone mad.
"Now, all the pickaxes in the village are in my hands." Green tied the pickaxe with a rope, "If the villagers want to use the pickaxe today or tomorrow, they will either pay to rent the pickaxe from me, or pay a penalty to get the pickaxe back from me." ā
"It's just a pickaxe, and if you go to the city, you can buy a new one for ten silver coins." Icassi felt that Green's brain was really broken, "A fool would pay you liquidated damages!" ā
"What if a vein of gold appears in the village today?" A demonic smile appeared on Green's lips, "Do you have a way to mine without a pickaxe?" ā
"Huh?" Ikashi couldn't help frowning, "Are you kidding?" ā
"Do you think I'm joking?" Green tied up the pickaxe and hung it on Ikassi, "I don't want them to actually give me a hundred gold, but fifty gold should be fine." Six pickaxes for three hundred gold coins would be fine, so that your medical bills would be covered. ā
Icasi looked at Green with a complicated expression, his eyes full of sympathy for the mentally handicapped child.
