Chapter 605 - Contract
"Ah, President Arrow."
Mrs. Macaroon, holding the basin of water that she used to wipe her husband's body, bowed very politely to the president, who was a little shorter than herβ
"Thank you so much for allowing me to take care of my husband, thank you for ......"
Such a thank you lady macaroon can say it a dozen times a day!
It's just that no matter how polite such a statement is, there is no way to cover up the problems that have arisen now.
Arrow glanced at the lady, her hands were rough and covered with calluses, perhaps from the housework. After holding the basin of water, his arms didn't shake.
After confirming this, Arrow nodded lightly and said, "Mrs. Macaroon, after you pour out the water, can you come to the guild hall downstairs, I have something to tell you." β
Seeing Arrow's sudden expression with such a serious expression, Mrs. Macaroons suddenly became a little nervous.
The corners of the only mouth on her face twitched slightly, but after a moment, she could only nod helplessly and answer softly.
Pouring out the water, setting up the basin and towel, Mrs. Macaroon lowered the sleeves that had been lifted up on her wrists. With her hands in front of her, she cautiously stepped out of the washroom, and when she reached the guild hall, she saw that the guild leader, along with the necromancer and the priest of light, had been waiting here for a long time.
Seeing that the faces of the people in the Mermaid Song looked very serious, Mrs. Macaroon couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, lowered her head, and came to the president.
Arrow exhaled softly, sat down on the couch, and looked up at Mrs. Macaroons in front of her.
After a moment, he pointed to a chair next to him and said, "Sit down, we may have to talk for a while." β
Madame macaroons hesitated slightly, and after looking up at Coco and Margaux next to her, she finally nodded lightly and sat down in the chair.
After the other party was ready, Arrow exhaled a little and said, "Mrs. Macaroon, it's been almost ten days since your husband fell into this state of suspended animation, right?" In the past 10 days, you have actually done very well. We tie up your husband because we don't want him to wake up and cause us trouble, and you accept and approve of that, so we are very cooperative with the work of our guild. I also want to thank you for that. β
The woman was hunched around her neck, her whole body clumped. In terms of height, she should have been a little taller than Margaux, but now curled up in a chair she looked like a livestock about to be pulled into the slaughterhouse.
"However, although you didn't take the initiative to cause trouble to our guild, you couple did do a lot of indirect trouble."
Arrow picked up an account book that had been prepared on the table and said slowly, "Since you and your wife entered our Mermaid Song Guild, I didn't dare to open the door to accept tourists for business as a precaution. You should also know that we in Pelican Town now have so many travelers because of the flower fairy thing, but I have so many empty rooms that I can't attract business. β
Mrs. Macaroons lowered her head, and now Arrow could only see the hairs on the top of her head: "Really...... It's really ...... Sorry ......"
Airo exhaled a little and continued, "In addition to this income, there are also various things that must be paid to watch over you in case of a sudden attack by the couple of you, so we may not be able to run the guild to the fullest. Even if you don't talk about these things, you two will need at least five iron coins of food a day. In the past ten days, the food expenses of the two of you alone have consumed five copper coins of mine. I think...... I don't have to keep you and my wife all day long, right? β
Hearing Arrow say this, Mrs. Macaroon's face suddenly turned blue! Her body also began to tremble, and she said nervously, "President Arrow......! That one...... I...... I can help with the work...... No matter what kind of life it is...... I'm willing to do any job...... So...... So ......"
Arrow had expected this woman to say such things, but it didn't matter, and Arrow didn't need a cleaner: "Our guild doesn't have a shortage of cleaners. In fact, our guild holds a cleaning once a week, and each of our guild members has good habits, does not litter, will put their personal belongings in a good place, and clean their living environment. And on the other hand, having you as our guild's cleaner doesn't reassure me either. After all, the most critical problem is still unsolved, isn't it? β
Mrs. Macaroons hugged her arms and bit her lower lip gently. After hesitating for a long time, she glanced her head slightly to the side and said with a trembling voice, "President...... You...... Want me...... How? I can't...... Can't betray ...... My husband...... Please...... Good work...... President ......"
That's the kind of character!
It's this kind of submissive personality that makes Arrow look more and more unhappy!
But no matter how unhappy you are, you still need to calm down now, these things need to be handled carefully, once you don't handle them well, the problem will be big.
At that moment, the president snorted coldly and said slowly: "Don't worry, I don't need you to do anything against morality." I just want you to sign a contract. β
As he spoke, Arrow opened a scroll that had been prepared next to him and placed it in front of Mrs. Macaroon.
"All you have to do is sign this, and in that case, I will be able to allow you to continue to stay in our guild, and I will continue to arrange a room for you and your husband to stay here in peace."
Mrs. Macaroons hesitated, but she reached out and took the contract. After looking at it, an incredible expression appeared on the lady's face, and she said, "I...... Join the Mermaid Song? In order to...... A paladin? β
Arrow was not polite at all, nodded his head, and said, "That's right, you join us in the Mermaid Song, so that you can also go out and do tasks." As long as you go out to do tasks, then you are making money for our guild, and since you can make money for the guild, then I don't need to forcibly kick you and your wife out, do I? Ah, except you'd better read the terms above. I won't pay you until the end of this year, no matter how much you disagree, that won't change. At most, I will take care of your husband's and wife's house and three meals a day. β
The president is talking to himself here, but his behavior makes Mrs. Macaroons over there absolutely confused!
In fact, it's not just Madame macaroon, Coco and Margaux, who are standing on either side of Arrow, are now also suspicious. It's just that they know their president too well, so even if they have questions, they don't say it.
"Wait...... Wait a minute! President Arrow! That ......"
Mrs. Macaroons raised her hand, but this hand was a little too cautiousβ
"That...... If I can add the Mermaid Song...... Then I don't have a problem...... But...... But this ...... Why ......"
She spoke again and again, which made Arrow a little bored to hear it, and immediately waved his hand and said, "What why, if you don't have a problem, I won't have a problem!" You used to be a smuggling team, and now that the smuggling team has been hijacked by us, the leaders of your two smuggling teams not only did not go back to report the news, but joined the guild that robbed you! I think even if you want to go back and report the other party, you won't believe it, right? Mmmmmmmm β
Mrs. Macaroon: "That...... Not this ...... I...... I mean......"
Arrow clasped his hands in front of his chest, looking a little anxious: "What the hell do you want to say?" This is no problem, that is fine, so where else is the problem? β
After being yelled at by Arrow, Mrs. Macaroon finally lowered her head and continued to look at Arrow with the hair on her head.
It's just that she pinched the contract scroll, and finally opened her mouth with some suspicion, and said, "That...... I...... Not a paladin...... If...... Cleaning the room...... Laundry and cooking...... I'm fine...... But out of the task...... I'm really ...... It's ......."
As she spoke, the woman's voice became softer and softer. Later, it was so light that Arrow couldn't even hear what she was talking about.
At this point, Coco next to him waved his hand after all and said, "Alas, there is no way." Brother President, I really can't stand it, so I'll leave it to me. (turns to Mrs. Macaroon) I say you! You have to figure it out! It's not about making you a paladin in our guild, it's about making your husband a paladin in our guild! You have to sign this contract on behalf of your husband, and you will work for us obediently until your husband wakes up! Do you understand? β
Speaking of this, the macaroons seemed to finally understand and nodded hurriedly.
It's just this kind of nodding, but it made Arrow behind him sigh and shake his head: "Coco, who told you that I want his husband to join our guild?" β
Coco was still excited just now, thinking she had said the right thing. But now he was dizzy from Arrow's words, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Margaux on the other side thought for a while and said, "Hey, pay attention, I'm going to hit you." β
"Ah...... Yes? What the? β
Margaux didn't give Madame Macaroon more time to think, she directly raised her hand and raised the staff of light in her hand, and slammed it into Madame Macaroon's head!
