Chapter 221 Honey Jar
At this, Round Cheese paused again, and glanced at him as if he were discussing it with a little spirit. After receiving a supportive look from the little spirit, round cheese continued-
And then ...... When you say that, don't be too angry, President Arrow. In other words...... Some townsfolk have begun to spread that there were no monsters after living there for so long, and now monsters have been born as soon as the Mermaid Song is gone, so it is very likely that these monsters were summoned by your Mermaid Song, and you want to use this to blackmail the townspeople of our town to give money to deal with it...... That's it. ”
The reason for not having a business, found.
Arrow shook his head slowly and said with a smile, "Who spread this rumor?" How could we, the Adventurers' Guild, do such a thing? ”
Round Cheese hurriedly smiled, spread his hands, and said loudly: "Of course! Of course, I fully believe in President Arrow! After all, you are nice and smart, and you don't forget to pull me when you make money...... Give them a hand. But President Arrow, you also have to take care of my current difficulties~~ After all, now that your mermaid song is on the cusp, it's not good for me to openly say good things for you in front of the townspeople, right? ”
The little liquor next to him nodded slightly: "The top priority, the most critical thing you Mermaid Song needs to do is to find a way to eradicate that monster." The sooner you eradicate it, the faster your credit will be restored. ”
Eradicate monsters? It's easier said than done.
As Round Cheese said just now, with Uncle Sacred Cake, the Mermaid's Song still ended in a fiasco with one person killed, and in this situation, unless it can be replenished immediately, how can it be possible to eradicate the monsters?
The question now weighed heavily in front of Arrow, a mountain he had to cross.
But just as Arrow was thinking about it, a townsman came running in a hurry. After seeing Arrow, the townman's expression was slightly stunned, but he immediately leaned in front of the windowsill and shouted at the mayor inside—
"Mayor Mare! Mayor Mare, hurry up and take a look! There are good things! Great good things are coming! ”
"A good thing?"
Round cheese wiped the flour on his hands with his apron, and asked strangely—
"What's good?"
"Oops! Hurry up! This kind of good thing is really rare! ”
Since the townspeople are so urging, it is not easy for round cheese to refuse. He said hello and closed the shop, and after a few moments, changed into clean clothes and walked out. When the townsfolk saw the mayor come out, they quickly turned back and led the way.
Seeing that the round cheese was running so fast, Eero was also a little curious. But he just wanted to ask the little liquor on the side, but found that the tavern owner didn't know when he had gone far away, and he didn't seem to have any interest in this "good thing", so he stepped on the way back to the unicorn tavern.
After thinking about it, Arrow decided to join in the fun. After following Round Cheese and the townsman out of the two streets, a deafening sound suddenly erupted from the front!
Crackling, booming——!
It was a series of firecrackers, and the sound came and went, which was very lively!
When I turned a corner, I saw that a large building that was only a little smaller than the Mermaid's Song was already crowded with people, and the whole building was now well decorated, and a huge gilded font was inlaid on the main entrance of the building—
"Honey Jar...... Guild? ”
Looking at the huge signboard, it was almost impossible for Airo to describe his current mood!
Especially when he saw the person standing in front of the Honey Jar Guild with a happy face and in charge of cutting the ribbon, a huge explosion seemed to suddenly explode in his head, making him lose any reaction in an instant!
That's Viscount Norris......
The Lord of Lagoon City, who was thinking about buying the Mermaid's Song not long ago, is now standing in front of this honeypot guild with a proud face, looking at so many Pelican Town townspeople with joy!
"Today, you are truly welcome to the opening ceremony of our Honey Jar Guild. Although this guild is still just a small guild, and it is currently the first store in Pelican Town, I believe that in the near future, you will be very satisfied with the service of our Honey Jar Guild! ”
As Norris spoke, the dozen or so people standing on either side of him with extraordinary skills and full equipment immediately applauded. Under the applause of these people, the townspeople also began to applaud unconsciously, and all of a sudden the whole street was filled with this warm applause.
Norris was very satisfied with the atmosphere at this moment, and the corner of his eye glanced at Arrow's side, and continued to open his arms and say, "I believe everyone already knows what the Adventurer Guild does, right?" So there's no need for us to go into more detail here. In contrast, I just want to introduce you to our new guild members, and let everyone get to know you. ”
With that, he reached out to a heavily armed warrior beside him, who seemed to be an experienced adventurer stepping forward and aloud his name and profession.
Next, one by one, the ten members announced their names and powers, from warriors to magicians, assassins to boxers, and the whole team felt like a very good and remarkable team just by looking at it.
Looking at such a well-trained team, Arrow's expression naturally didn't look good.
After introducing all the members, Viscount Norris continued to step forward and said with a smile: "Then from today, our Honey Jar Guild will officially open for business!" I hope everyone can cheer more! During the opening of the new store, all work commissions will be discounted! Thank you! ”
Price war!
Arrow knew that he had encountered the type of combat he feared the most.
A powerful capitalist who uses a large amount of capital in his hands to directly overwhelm his competitors in terms of price is in many cases the most effective and convenient way to do so. But he never expected that this Viscount Norris would use this tactic in order to be able to kill the Mermaid Song in one go?!
Didn't you just rob you of the right to operate a guild war? Is it necessary to be so angry that he does not hesitate to spend a lot of money to completely crush his opponents? This tactic of killing a thousand enemies and injuring eight hundred is used on such a small guild as himself, if there is no real hidden secret, then it is definitely a brain disease!
When the mayor of Round Cheese saw that the viscount had finished speaking, he immediately raised his hand and squeezed to the front of the line.
After seeing Mayor Round Cheese, Viscount Norris nodded with a smile and said, "Ah, it turned out to be Mr. Mayor." I'm sorry that we were in a hurry to prepare for the guild renovation this time, so I didn't have time to inform you. Anyway, this building hasn't been purchased from you yet, and I'd like to talk to you about it. ”
Round Cheese smiled a little awkwardly, no matter how much he said that the title of mayor of the town was also appointed by this viscount, it was useless to say that it was all false. At that moment, he just nodded and smiled: "Your Excellency, it is really a great honor to be able to see you with my own eyes. I just don't know...... Why did you come up with the idea of starting an adventurer's guild in our town? You should know, we already have a ...... in our town. Ahem, of course, I don't have a problem with that! I just think that the scale of Lagoon City is dozens of times larger than Pelican Town, and it should be more profitable for you to open in Lagoon City, right? ”
Although Round Cheese usually looks like he has an eye for money, Arrow is really grateful that he can speak for himself in this situation.
The Viscount raised his head slightly, glanced at Arrow with a haughty expression, and said with a smile: "Anyway, Lagoon City is also within my territory, it is impossible for me to open an adventurer's guild in my own territory and steal my own business, right?" But it's not the same in your town. Ah, isn't that President Arrow of the Mermaid's Song? From now on, we will be the operators of the same town, and I hope we can work together happily. ”
On the surface, Arrow's face grinned.
But secretly, his fists were already clenched tightly.
Now he was pretty sure that this Viscount was definitely trying to crush himself in one go! The reason behind it is probably far from being as simple as robbing him of his business once.
"Ah, it's the Viscount's guild. Of course, of course! I can feel a little more at ease if I can have a companion in the town. ”
After a moment of thought, Arrow parted the crowd and slowly walked forward under the gaze of everyone. He bowed slowly to the viscount, and said with a smile—
"I hope we can cooperate more in the future. After all, there is a problem that is very troubling us in Pelican Town right now. ”
Hearing Arrow's words, the eyes of all the townspeople present lit up! They all set their eyes on the ten members of the Honey Pot Guild!
Of course, Arrow knew what he was talking about, and the power of that dark beast was far beyond the scope of the Mermaid's Song. Especially now that he had lost the High Priest of Uncle Saint Bread, he didn't have the slightest thought of entering the basement of Swan Castle again.
But now, this viscount is clearly here to steal business, if he can't kill his prestige in one go, then the mermaid song really doesn't want to mix in Pelican Town in the future!
However, there is a huge catch in this method - if the monster is really cleaned up by the honey pot...... Then he can really close the door quickly and meet his fate with a failed ending.
