124. Transaction
In the Rogge camp, people with a conscience are easy to find, such as the Rogers who can be found everywhere, such as the nuns and sisters of the Blind Sisters, such as Chasi who is in a certain state...... However, there are absolutely no chamber representatives, circus clowns, grocers, tavern owners, as well as female guides and cattle dealers.
Antiope haggled so fiercely with the cattle traders in the camp that Santis suspected that they were arguing, and even feared that the two would draw their swords against each other. However, he didn't know that the two "conscientious" people just didn't talk about it for the time being because of the amount of kickbacks.
In the end, Antiope succeeded in forcing the cattle dealer to compromise and secure a mule for himself.
Of course, much of the mule's value would be reflected in the price of Mr. Priest's horse.
"Some villages can be reached in a day, while others can be walked for days." Antiope said, "After leaving the camp, it is difficult to get all kinds of supplies, so you have to be well prepared. I've got a list here that you need to get your host to look at and have it ready. By the way, my food and labor expenses are also here. ”
Santis took the list disapprovingly and glanced at the final price: "Huh? Why is it so expensive? Five Gio? Let me see ......"
Antiope snatched the list and slapped it on Santis's chest, staring into the eyes of the butler and first valet:
"You don't need to look, you just need to get your boss to pay for it."
Santis looked into Antiope's eyes, and suddenly felt the sun and the breeze, and muttered, "You're absolutely right, ma'am...... Your eyes are like the waters of Tern's Narcissus Lake, did anyone tell you? ”
- Fool.
Antiope turned and left, she had to go to the stores on the list to talk about kickbacks, and she really didn't have time to waste talking to fools.
Santis watched Antiope depart in a daze, and with a heart of spring, he went back to report to his master.
Rutherford Cookpriest was well aware of the prices everywhere. Moreover, he had come here to try it, and he knew better how the locals slaughtered the rich people from other lands. He looked at the final offer, called the servant with a blushing face, and said, "Go, cut the price in half." She'll take it. ”
Santis didn't reach out to take the list, but instead put it on his face:
"Sir, you know that I am a cautious and thoughtful man. I wouldn't be because this lady has a peerless look and is full of legs from the neck down...... Just hire her. I will only think about you, everything is in your interest. ”
Syllable!
There is no doubt that Santis received a slap in the face from the master.
"You're getting too close to me." Cook said coldly.
"I'm sorry, sir." Santis stepped back a little: "I want to say that we all know that His Excellency the Sage was originally brought back to Camp Rog by a female explorer. ”
"Is that her?" Cook's hand flickered.
"Yes, sir, your faithful servant has confirmed again and again: she is the only explorer in this town. People who knew her called her 'Andy' and complimented her on being like a man, while others called her 'Annie', a nickname that befits her identity......"
"Enough!"
The priest interrupted the servant's chatter: "Is she protected by His Excellency the Sage?" ”
Santis said proudly: "Master, your thoughtful servant happened to know that she is a relative of His Excellency the Sage. His Excellency the Sage even exorcised demons for her. The whole camp knew about it, and there was also the certification of His Excellency the Priest. ”
"We all follow the guide's arrangement, and I am sure she will be very professional." Cook thought for a moment, and then said, "But at the same time you have to go to her and ask her to pick one more, no, two retinues." I'll give her the retinue's fee separately, and let her settle it with the two retinues. ”
"What a wise decision, sir." Santis bowed down, excited to meet the goddess Antiope.
When Antiope got the revised contract, her eyes were about to fall out. Even aristocratic gentlemen like Luke and Aaron didn't offer such a friendly price.
"10 Gingio?" Antiope had to confirm with Santis: "And the commission of the entourage, paid by me?" ”
"Yes, my master and I will not reveal a word." Santis tilted his head and winked at Antiop.
Antiope twitched the corners of his mouth: "You know, everyone who wants to fight my idea in the wilderness has suffered unexpected misfortune. ”
"I'm sure that as a Holy Priest, there will be no accidents. He is a responsible person, and he only knows how to bury his head and do his job well. Sansti paused, changed his impassioned tone, and said, "And I am a retinue of dignity, integrity, and a sense of justice, and I will heroically prevent my master from doing anything dishonorable!" ”
"Then I'll accept it." Antiope drew his signature on the contract and said, "I'm sorry I can't ask you for a drink, but I have to go to see His Excellency the Sage and Captain Kashya, who have been serving the Order for many years. ”
Santis' eyes flashed pink: "You are such a pious lady and full of power, and not everyone is qualified to serve the church. ”
"The Sisters, not the Church." Antiop corrected Santis and walked towards the Rog Training Ground with the wrapped Demon Sword.
At this time, His Excellency the Sage will definitely be at the training ground.
……
……
When Antiope arrived at the training ground, Zheng Yi had just finished consecrating a bucket of water, and now it was a bucket of solar holy water. He saw Antiope coming towards him, filled a bottle, dried it, and stuffed it into the shrewd warrioress.
Flattered, Antiope thanked him for putting away the holy water, and then handed over the demon sword with both hands.
As soon as Zheng Yi stretched out his hand, he felt the resistance and fear of this one-handed sword.
It has a consciousness of its own.
Zheng Yi grabbed the scabbard, unwrapped the layers of wraps, and forcefully pulled out the sword.
The one-handed sword actually let out a wail.
Antiope looked at His Excellency the Sage in amazement, no matter who held this sword, this had never happened before.
Zheng Yi is not surprised at all, his attributes are restrained and his rank is suppressed, and he is the natural enemy of this sword - he can crush its consciousness at any time.
"Please, great, holy being, please spare me, I am just a poor weak and helpless little devil. I don't want to come to the sanctuary to fight, but I have no choice but to obey my lord. The one-handed sword let out a series of trembling sounds.
Zheng Yi wrapped the sword in "Lady's Tears" to investigate its mysteries, completely unresponsive to the demon's whispers.
