Chapter 845 Money is a good thing
While Arrow was suspicious, the blue distant leader glanced at the village, then nodded slightly, took out a piece of parchment from his bosom, opened it, glanced at it, and said—
"The village chief, the poor village chief, is not there? Please come out at once, we are the Blue Distant Guild, and we are coming to you on behalf of Hilton Bank. ”
So, to complete the task?
Seeing Blue take out the parchment in the distance, Arrow breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, I'm idle now, so let's see how it goes.
There was a commotion among the villagers, with women hurriedly holding their children and bringing them back to the huts, while some male villagers approached with some farm tools with frightened faces.
The seven members of the Blue Distant Side, now surrounded by almost twenty villagers in a semi-encircled form, really looked like they were not good.
However, the president of the blue distance is still attached to the lightheartedness, and does not show the fear or vigilance of the time.
"I'm the village chief...... Hilton...... Banks? ”
Finally, an old man slowly walked out of the villagers. His face looked a lot of sorrow, not at all like the one with the advantage in numbers.
Seeing this village chief, the blue distant chairman smiled slightly, raised the parchment in his hand, and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, the head of the poor village. I am the president of the Blue Distant Guild, Jewel Blue, and now we are here on behalf of Hilton Bank, hoping that you can hand over the arrears and interest in accordance with the regulations, totaling 152 gold, 1 silver, 8 bronze and 3 iron. Of course, the management of Hilton Bank also told me that in view of your current standard of living, you may not be able to make up for it, so you have decided to pull out the fraction and only need to pay 150 gold. ”
Hearing such an amount, not only these villagers were taken aback, but even Airo on the side couldn't help but be taken aback!
These villagers, you look at me, I look at you, everyone's face is frightened and confused, but after the confusion in the early stage has passed, these people only have anger and determination on their faces!
The village chief coughed slightly and said, "Mr. Jewel Blue, we ...... Didn't borrow that much money...... How is it possible to borrow so much money? ”
The smile on Jewel Blue's face was still so youthful and beautiful, he glanced at the parchment in his hand again, and smiled, "If I listen to your explanation, I will also wonder how there is so much money in arrears." But now I have this scroll in my hand, is there your autograph? Is it written that you will borrow 50 gold and then be willing to repay double the amount every year? It's been two years now, and the interest for two years is 100 plus the principal of 50, and I don't think there is any problem with this contract. ”
The village chief was now a little anxious, he kept stamping his feet, and said with a little annoyance, "How can you ...... How can this be?! Two years ago...... Two years ago, because of the drought, our village really didn't have a harvest! Many of the surrounding towns have entered a famine year due to poor harvests! Hilton Bank ...... That Hilton bank started to raise food prices instead! It's forcing us to spend too much money to survive! ”
The gem didn't seem to be touched by the village chief's complaints. The smile on his face was still there, and he said with a smile: "Forcing you? No, if you don't like the high price, you can not buy it, and then go and buy other people's food. How? Could it be that the boss of Hilton Bank is forcing you to buy their food? Don't talk nonsense, do you plan to pay back the money? You wrote this in black and white, and you didn't force you in the first place. ”
"Money, money, money! How much food we bought at the beginning, we can just use the food to return it to you now! ”
When the village chief was a little impatient, a sturdy villager next to him couldn't help it, and shouted-
"A few years ago, we had a great harvest! As a result, you are desperately trying to lower the purchase price of our grain on the grounds that the grain depot is full and cannot be put down! But then in a year of disaster, you raised the price of food! Do you still have humanity? Do you want to give us a way to live?! I don't care! The 50 gold coins I took from you were all used to buy food, and the price was too high to buy much at all! Now you want twice the interest plus a principal, right? We have food here, and we will give you three portions of food! Just be there, go get it yourself! ”
The momentum of the villagers has risen a little, but these handsome young people of the Blue Distant Guild are all smiling one by one.
They didn't seem to be at all intimidated by the crowd around them, but Jewel Blue, who was the chairman, rolled up the parchment in his hand and said with a smile, "Village Lord, please hurry up and pay for it." You should know Hilton's methods, and if I wish, I would like to be able to do so in a way that is as peaceful as possible. ”
With the support of his own villagers, the village chief couldn't help but speak a little harder, the old man snorted and said, "I want money, no!" You are the ones who are driving down the price of food, and you are the one who is raising it! If you have to pay us back, as we said, there is still food over there, and you can take three portions and pay it off as if it were our money! ”
With the hardness of the village chief, the surrounding villagers gradually gained confidence. They began to constantly wave the farming tools in their hands, and even more to shrink the encirclement of this guild, as if they were planning to drive them out of here in one fell swoop!
The handsome little guys of the Blue Distant Guild who were surrounded still maintained the faint smile on their faces. They put their shoulders on each other's backs, and even in this position, they still seem to remember to make sure that their image is perfect.
As the president, Jewel Blue, he looked at these approaching villagers, and finally could only smile faintly, and said: "Alas~~~ It's really troublesome to encounter this kind of mission goal that doesn't plan to repay debts." There is no way, the ignorant people just need to teach a good lesson, so that they can understand the seriousness of the matter. Onyx, you've been with us for the shortest time, why don't you give it a try? ”
Hearing Jewel Blue's words, a handsome young man who looked to be only about sixteen or seventeen years old nodded lightly and walked out of his group.
Jewel turned his head, stretched out his hand, patted the companion on the shoulder, and said, "Do it as elegantly as possible, pay attention to the beauty." ”
This handsome young man who taught agate lightly stroked his hair and shrugged his shoulders: "I know the president, I'll try my best~~~"
Then, Onyx took a step forward and walked in front of so many villagers single-handedly. And then......
"What are you going to do now, President of the Blue Distance? Probably not...... Do something too much, right? ”
Just as Onyx was about to do something, a voice suddenly came from the side.
The Blue Distant member turned his head and saw Arrow standing next to him again.
But this time, the leader of the mermaid song was standing very close, and even a little vaguely between them and the villagers.
Jewel Blue's gaze fell on the short man again. He slightly changed his standing posture, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said in a very chic motion: "What? Haven't you left yet? If you want to sign it, wait until we're done. ”
Arrow glanced at the agate who seemed to be planning to do something, and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, I just think that there is still room for negotiation in this matter?" You see, Hilton wants money, not some other ...... 'thing', right? There's no need to make things too stiff and ugly......"
As Arrow spoke, the cheese behind him pulled on his top hat, looking a little bored. He muttered softly: "People owe money to pay back, why do we care so much?" ”
Coco also nodded and said, "I also think that the elder brother is a little too lenient...... In the past, the elder brother should not care about this kind of thing that other people owe...... And we've done a lot of debt collection. ”
Margaux shrugged her shoulders and said, "God knows what's going on in our heads. ”
Cream also looked a little helpless, and stepped forward and whispered in Arrow's ear: "President, the task of other people's guilds is entrusted, we don't need to get involved, right?" ”
It's a pity that Arrow completely ignored Cream's suggestion, and continued to smile and say, "Right, right? What you want is money, and you can earn money later! Right? ”
After saying this, Arrow's face immediately turned to the villagers next to him, and he also said with a smile: "Also, it is indeed natural to repay debts, and this IOU is indeed signed by your village." But there's no need to make the atmosphere so stiff, right? Take some grain out as interest first, and even if you can't, you can use it as interest, right? ”
Sometimes, Iero thinks he might be crazy.
Yes, especially at this time, he felt even more that he was already crazy. How many brains and retards are there to come up with such a method that is not pleasing to both parties, and still want to solve this problem?
However, the current situation is simply not the time to allow Arrow to think carefully. So, he had to fix it now!
It's a pity......
"Who are you, you? Is it your turn to meddle in the affairs of our village?! ”
The strong-blooded villager just now directly aimed the spearhead at Arrow, and even raised the fork in his hand, putting on a posture that he was going to stab at Arrow anytime and anywhere.
