Section 217, strange goods
Returning from the Baroque, Aleuzer was quite pleased. Although he still felt uncomfortable with Baroque's money-eyed face, Aliuzhe didn't have so high requirements for himself now. The so-called people are poor and short-minded, horses are thin and long, and in the face of life pressure, as long as it is not particularly excessive, just make do with the past. There's no need to get along with money.
As he walked, he recalled the conversation he had just had with Baroque......
Baroque saw that Aleuzus had not answered very simply, snorted, took out ten gold coins from his trouser pocket, threw them in front of him, pointed to them, and said, "Take this." This is a special deposit for you by the owner. I said that there are strong martial arts masters here, but I didn't even say your name. He directly gave me an advance deposit and asked me to take care of it. These ten gold coins should be worth the money you have to do for a week's hard work, right? ”
Aliuzhe was completely persuaded by the gold coins at this time, hurriedly put it away, and said to Baroque: "I didn't expect that this boss is really bold enough. He knew that Baroque must have withheld most of the advance, but he had no choice but to pretend to be happy to deal with Baroque.
Baroque saw that Aliuzhe's eyes lit up at the sight of money, laughed, pointed to his nose and said, "Oh, you, you, look, you yourself are not the same?" I've said it all, since it's all about this, what are you still reserved? Uh-huh? I have made an appointment with the owner to come to the tavern at eight o'clock tomorrow night to negotiate, and you will be there on time. ”
"Good!" Aliuzhe nodded, and agreed.
……
After recalling the conversation between the two, Aliuzhe found that he had unconsciously walked to the door of the bakery. It was already time for dinner, and Rodin and Rodin must have been waiting at home to buy their own food.
"Aleuz. How do you see your red face today? The bakery owner asked with a smile when he saw Arius coming over happily. How? Have you found a good job? ”
"Sort of." Aliuzhe nodded, handing the tin can to the boss. smiled and said, "In a few days, I should go out on errands." I wondered, if I'm going to go far away, can the two kids come to you directly for dinner? I'll give a few days of money first. They just come over and eat it. ”
"Good! OK! The boss agreed, "You've found something to do, and we're all happy." What are you going to do? ”
Ariuzhe thought for a moment, shook his head with a smile, and said, "This." I won't say it now. Excuse me. The bakery owner understood, and began packing the food for Aliuzhe.
Ariuzhe received an advance payment in advance, and was in a good mood, so he bought some more desserts for the two brothers. When he reached the door, he saw Rodin standing in the doorway, eating a piece of chocolate with relish.
"Huh?" Aliuzhe was surprised, because the chocolate that Rodin ate was a large piece, and it was a relatively expensive candy, and the inhabitants of the slum were reluctant to buy it.
What's going on?
"Rodin, where did you get your chocolate?" Ariuzhe was acutely aware. Something wasn't right, so he hurriedly asked Rodin, "I haven't bought you chocolates." What's going on? ”
When Rodin saw that Aliuzhe had returned, he hurriedly hid the chocolate behind him. He said, "Ah, uncle, my brother bought it for me." ”
"Rodin bought it for you? Chocolate? Are you kidding? As soon as Ariuzus heard this. Immediately feeling a hint of worry, he hurriedly pulled Rodin into the house. Rodin was seen eating chocolate as well.
Rodin's face changed dramatically when he saw Ariuzer walking in with his brother in tow. Hurriedly took out the third piece of chocolate from his trouser pocket with a smile on his face, handed it to Aliuzhe, and said, "Uncle, this is what I invited you to eat!" ”
"Where did you get the money?" When Ariuzhe saw the third piece of chocolate, he had already guessed eight or nine of them, and with a gloomy face, he asked, "Rodin, have you stolen money?" ”
"No! No! Rodin panicked, shook his head vigorously, and said, "Today a rich lady passed by, and when she saw that I was more lovely, she rewarded me with money." I went and bought chocolates. ”
Ariuzhe didn't speak immediately, but looked around, and immediately saw that in the garbage heap in the corner of the wall, there was something familiar, it was the old lady's embroidered money bag!
Seeing this, Aryuzhe suddenly felt five thunderbolts, and a wave of anger rushed straight to his head! He walked quickly to the edge of the garbage heap, squatted down to pick up the money bag, pointed at Rodin and asked sharply: "Rodin, if I don't teach you a lesson today, you really have a long face!" ”
Then, the cries of Rodin and Rodin resounded throughout the side street, attracting the neighbors to come and dissuade them.
Aleuzer was angry and cried......
Seeing off the neighbors, Ariuzhe hugged the two brothers and cried heartily. After crying, he took the two brothers to the old lady.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!" Ariuzhe stood in front of the old lady and bowed to her in apology. Rodin and Rodin bowed with him.
The advance money left over from the food he had bought before, plus the money Rodin had used to make up for the old lady's loss. Aleuzer handed the old lady the embroidered money bag in both hands, and said, "This is the money and money bag that have been returned to you, please forgive us!" ”
The old lady was moved to tears by Aliuzhe, and she cried out loud, unable to speak. In fact, she is also very difficult, her wife is sick, and her only daughter lives on the other side of the street with her husband, and it is also difficult to get by. This money, for the old lady, is fate!
Bidding farewell to the old lady, Aliuzhe took the two brothers on the way home, feeling very relaxed.
"From now on, you must not steal again, understand?" "Understood!" "Understood! I won't steal it! ”
……
On the night of the meeting with the gold lord, the tavern ......
Aliuzhe arrived on time, and to his surprise, the gold lord was a long time late. This upset both him and Baroque.
The person who came was an expressionless middle-aged woman, who seemed to be dressed relatively ordinarily. If it weren't for Baroque and her code, Ariuzhe would have thought that Baroque was playing tricks on him.
"Hey, why are you so late?" When the woman sat down, Baroque asked her indignantly, "Aren't you going to explain?" ”
The woman glanced at Baroque and did not answer immediately, but squinted at Aleuzer and stared at him uncomfortably. After observing for a while, the woman pointed to Aliuzhe and asked Baroque, "Is this what you call a master?" ”
Baroque nodded and said, "Don't underestimate him." He ......" Aryuzhe interrupted him: "Come on, boss, the good man doesn't mention the courage of the year." ”
"Well......" Baroque continued.
The woman smiled slightly and said, "I can see it." What is the name of this gentleman? ”
Baroque waved his hand and said, "Didn't you also let me tell others your name?" What's his name, don't ask. Besides, you're just a subordinate, and the less you know, the better. "It turns out that this woman is just a messenger. When Ariuzus heard this, it dawned on him.
"Okay!" The woman took out a full bag of money from the pocket of her skirt, threw it on the table, and said, "This is the first advance payment for this commission, and the last time it was just a little welcome gift from my master." ”
"Well said, well said!" Baroque was smiling when he saw so many gold coins!
The woman continued: "Don't rush to get excited. This mission is very important, and if you mess up, not only me, but also you, will lose your heads. Got it? ”
……
The date of departure agreed with the woman had arrived, and Ariuzhe settled the two children and arrived outside the village on time. By this time, it was already snowing, and the whole road was covered with snow.
The woman and Baroque stand in front of a large carriage with a large box on it. The box was so large that Aliuzhe was surprised.
"Let's go! Baroque leads the way, you just follow him. The woman seemed to be in a hurry, urging the group to hurry on the road. Baroque was very enthusiastic and hurriedly beckoned Aryus to the carriage. He brought with him four of his men, the other four who were nothing compared to Aleuzer.
Although Ariuzhe was a little suspicious of the box, he couldn't withstand the urging of the Baroque and the woman, so he could only go on the road like this.
Alas...... At that time, there was no inspection, so I hurried on the road, what a mistake...... (To be continued......)
