September 1728 in the Solar Calendar in the territory of the Kingdom of Portnas, the town of Kuro

A new day has begun, and the Adventurers' Guild is already crowded in the morning, and many adventurers take advantage of the morning to pick up new quests, so that there is the most time to prepare. The most densely populated place for the guild is the gate, and the three-meter-wide doorway is not too narrow, but at the peak of the crowd, you still need to wait a while to enter and exit the hedge. The situation was especially severe today, the entire doorway was completely blocked, and it was not because of the congestion caused by hedging, but because the adventurers stopped.

The reason for it all was a woman, and these adventurers stopped when they saw this woman coming. This is not because of how beautiful the woman looks, but because she wears a beautifully cut maid outfit. This style of maid outfit is not suitable for going out, the cut-out on the chest may cause unnecessary trouble, the long skirt with white lace edge looks large, it is easy to bump into others when walking outside, and the white lace is also easy to stain on the street, only the most skilled maids have the confidence to go out in such clothes.

"Ah, Teresa, are you here?" the woman walked through the door and was recognized by Modelilah, who then shouted to the crowd, "If you don't disperse, I'll deduct all the points!

When the crowd saw the puppet say this, they quickly dispersed. Teresa saw Modrella, smiled slightly, and walked slowly to the front desk.

At this moment, a young man dressed as an adventurer was talking to his companion, and he accidentally bumped into Teresa, and the maid stumbled and fell to the ground.

"Ah, I'm sorry. The adventurer hurriedly apologized, he bent down to pick her up, and then his eyes looked at the maid's heaving chest, and he blushed, "I'm really sorry, this young lady." ”

"It's okay," Teresa politely waved her hand.

The adventurer ran out of the guild at the whistle of his companions.

"It didn't hurt anything," Mosyla nervously pulled her hand, "Those boys are reckless, I should deduct points for them." ”

"It's okay," Teresa smiled, a sunny smile, "They didn't mean to. ”

"Alas, you are so kind, Teresa, that's why you're being darkened..."

"Modrilla, sir, I'm going to be angry. Teresa raised her voice slightly.

"Ah, I'm sorry," Modrilla quickly apologized, "It's a shame that you didn't participate in this cooking competition." ”

"Because there are so many things happening, I can't take care of my husband in order to take care of them. I'm so sorry. Teresa said and bowed to the doll.

"It's okay," Modrilla hurriedly stretched out her hand, but the window was too small for her hand to reach, "It's really okay, it's okay to have a dark skin." Modrilla was a little embarrassed.

"Thanks to the help of the adventurers, my husband has been able to get through this difficult time, so I thank you again for my husband, Miss Modrella," said the maid and bowed again.

Modrella's face was already flushed, "It's better not to say much about this matter in the future, Geis is still a little sensitive about this matter." ”

"I see. Teresa nodded, and then she took a letter from her bosom and handed it over, "Miss Modelella, I have come today to thank you for one more thing. ”

"Deliver the letter?" Modrilla took the letter.

"I hope you will pass this letter on my behalf to Mr. Rhodes and Mr. Lotter. ”

"This is—" Moselilla took the letter, it was unsealed, and she glanced inside.

"Just a formal invitation. The maid explained, "My husband celebrates himself... Survive, and invite the two gentlemen to dinner tonight. ”

Modrilla nodded, "I'll give it to them, but I can't guarantee if they go or not." ”

"I'm grateful to be able to pass it on for my husband. The maid bowed again, "I will do my best to participate in the next cleaning competition, Miss Modryla, thank you." ”

This extremely respectful attitude may be the puppet's nemesis, even if she has thousands of years of memory materials, she can't switch to an attitude that can deal with Teresa, "Waiting for you" and maintaining the most basic smile, Modrella pretends to play to deal with it.

Teresa didn't know if she saw the puppet's embarrassment, she smiled and said goodbye to her and left the guild.

Soon Rod and Lott got the invitation. This made it difficult for the two. Hopler proposed to them a few days ago that he wanted to take them away, and both of them agreed, seeing that they were going to leave tomorrow, and the appearance of this invitation at this time made the two of them a little confused.

"It should be a good thing, right?" said Rod, after a moment's thought, "he must want to thank us?"

"It's hard to say, even if you really want to thank us, we're leaving tomorrow, and what if something happens at night, it's important to let Uncle Hopler take us away. "Lott didn't want to get out of the way.

"Why don't you ask Uncle Hopler?"

Lott agreed, and the two found Hopler at the tavern.

"It's a good thing, why don't you go to a banquet, it's still the rich man who has a treat. Hoppler fully agreed that they accepted the invitation.

"Ah, but we're leaving tomorrow," Lott reminded him

"What does it matter, if you two don't wake up tomorrow morning, I'll just carry you into the carriage. Hopler burped, dazed, and didn't look reliable at all.

The two men looked at each other, and it seemed that it was not a good idea to ask Hopler, and it was impossible to say if he would be able to take care of himself tomorrow. However, it is precisely because of seeing Hopler's state that the two have no psychological pressure. In the end, they decided to go back to the house where they had had a not-so-pleasant experience.

In the evening of the same day, the two arrived at the dark skin's mansion, and Teresa was already waiting at the door, and when she saw the two, she smiled and opened the iron door. Although it was said that they should wear formal clothes to the banquet, the two teenagers did not have that kind of clothes and came in in their usual clothes.

Darkskin heard a voice from the iron gate, and was coming down from the second floor, when he met the two people who had been brought in by Teresa.

"Welcome, little ghost. Darkskin greeted with a smile, still wearing a suit and a silver badge engraved with the words "Silver Investor" on his chest.

"You look a little more energetic, Mr. Darkskin," Lott replied skillfully, "I'm sorry we don't have clothes like yours, and I hope you understand." Lott was very polite, and Rhodes didn't say anything, just squinted his eyes and glanced at Darkskin from time to time.

"What does that matter? "Darkskin is also very open-minded", "If it weren't for business, I wouldn't like to wear this kind of clothes." ”

"Thank you so much for causing so much trouble and for entertaining us. Lott bent down to thank him, and he knew a lot about this obvious politeness, and it sounded quite presentable.

"Where, though I and the two of you... The past is all gone," he smiled, "It doesn't matter if you live or not." The goblin walked up to them and took the hands of the two of them, "You didn't visit my house last time, there is still some time before dinner, let me show you what is the house where the real gold medal investor lives!"

"Ah, actually—" Lott was about to say something, but his hand was tugging, so he shut up.

Darkskin took them on a tour of his collection, which was on the first floor, where there were some works of art and paintings, which looked rare, but the teenagers didn't understand them at all, so they just went about it, until Lot saw a painting.

"Is that you?" said Lot, seeing that one of the paintings was not one of the strange art paintings, but a goblin standing in front of a house.

"Ah, that's when I just got the title of investor, so I hired an artist to paint this picture for me, and the house is the Portnuts headquarters of our York Chamber of Commerce. Looking at the painting, Darkskin not only sighed, "At that time, I was still very young, and I never imagined that I would have what I am today." ”

Although he didn't understand what Darkskin's achievements were, Lott was still a little interested in the York Chamber of Commerce, "Mr. Darkskin, what kind of organization is the York Chamber of Commerce?"

"Huh?" was asked, and the dark skin expression was surprised, "You don't know about the York Chamber of Commerce?!"

"Ahh

Darkskin's face turned from surprise to regret, and he patted Lot's thigh, "It's been a hard time these years, kid." ”

Rhodes, who was next to him, also came over at this time, "The Chamber of Commerce is in business." ”

"Of course, that's right, how can the Chamber of Commerce not be in business. "Darkskin began to pace with his hands behind his back" Many people don't know, in fact, the York Chamber of Commerce used to be a sect. ”

"Sect?" the two teenagers shouted at the same time.

"It's normal for you not to know, the church doesn't advertise this. We goblins are not allowed to enter the Holy Capital until now. The dark tone looked disdainful.

"What sect?" asked Lott hurriedly.

"Of course it's the god of wealth," said Darkpi, looking a little proud, "God of Wealth, Bolawang, don't you know?"

The two teenagers shook their heads.

"You're too ignorant," Darkskin muttered in a low voice, "He's the god in charge of wealth, and the Chamber of Commerce was originally just his sect, but we goblins are very much liked by the gods, and finally we cooperated with the gods to form the York Chamber of Commerce." Up to now, most of the goods in all countries are provided and sold by our chamber of commerce. From a nail to an entire house!" the goblin smugly forked his waist, "half of the property in this town is in my name. The goblin laughed at this.

"So the shops we see are all run by the York Chamber of Commerce?!" Lott was surprised, "All of them?" He didn't expect that the York Chamber of Commerce was actually the owner of all the shops on these streets, and it should be said that it was surprising that he didn't know that he was so big.

"Almost all of them, maybe the clerk is not a goblin, but the boss is definitely it, because the Chamber of Commerce refuses non-goblins to join, and it is useless for you to envy. "Darkskin happily looked at the stunned teenagers" Do you still have any questions?"

"You just said that you are cooperating with God?" Rod was a little incredulous, "Cooperating?!"
