Chapter 706: Village Chief
"Woo ah~~~ Yiyi, my hands are so sore! That woman is definitely jealous of my cuteness! β
In the room of the two, Long Yan was crying to Yiyi.
Yiyi moved her mouth, wanting to tell her that it was just a normal job, but she still didn't say anything about it when it got to the end.
"Miss, I'll give you a massage."
"Oh, you have to be lighter."
Long Yan lay down, and soon fell into a deep sleep under the appropriate strength of the light and weight.
"Miss?"
called softly, Yiyi got off the bed, and helped Long Yan pose and cover the quilt.
Glancing out the window, it was already nightfall, and although she slept a little early, Long Yan should sleep until tomorrow tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Yiyi frowned, in order to complete the work that was ordered, because Ilulli was watching from the side, Yiyi couldn't help, but Long Yan had been delayed until now. Of course, dinner hasn't been eaten yet.
Knock knock!
There was a knock on the door, and in order not to disturb Long Yan, Yiyi immediately walked to the door. When he opened the door, he saw Iruri and Xiao Zi, each holding a meal.
"You haven't eaten yet, I've warmed it up, let's eat it while it's hot."
"This is made by Wren, it's delicious!"
"Thank you, it's just that"
Yiyi let go of half of her body, and Iruri looked at it, and couldn't help but smile, and said, "I'm asleep, but I still have work tomorrow, and it will be very hard not to fill my stomach." β
"I know."
After taking a look at the meal. Yiyi already had a plan in mind, so she took it.
Fleeing all the way here, Long Yan's spirit is already very fragile, and she has done some work that has never been done before, Yiyi still thinks it is better to let her sleep enough. Still, just in case, leave some food that is easy to preserve. It doesn't take too much, as long as Long Yan gets up in the middle of the night and has something to eat. Then the rest of the ones that are not delicious when cooled, Yiyi is responsible for eating them all by himself. Don't look at her as a weak woman, the amount of food is not small.
The next morning, before dawn, the knock on the door rang again.
Yiyi immediately opened her eyes. It's just that Long Yan smacked her lips and turned over and continued to sleep. Didn't notice it at all.
Yiyi knows what the Tao will knock on the door, just
After hesitating for a moment, in the end she still didn't plan to wake up Long Yan.
"Yesterday's teaching you will be done, and that's all your work is for the time being. Can it be done? β
Yiyi nodded.
"That's right. It's a job for two. It's hard to be alone. β
As if seeing through what Yiyi was thinking, Iruri said this meaningfully.
"yes, I'll pay attention."
Although it is said that this is the case. Yiyi still left Long Yan, who had not woken up yet, and went to the outer hall to clean up by herself, and set up the tables and chairs by the way. This was originally intended to be done by the two of them together, but Yiyi alone would be faster.
It's just that when she was ready to go to the kitchen to help, she ran into Wu Jian.
"Ah, the store manager."
With a small exclamation, Yiyi lowered her head and said hello.
Wu Jian looked into the lobby and didn't find Long Yan, so he asked, "Where is Long Yan?" β
"Miss, she's still sleeping"
Yiyi didn't dare to look at Wu Jian's eyes, and her head was lowered.
"Call her up."
"Store manager! Miss, she has never done this kind of thing, please give her a little time to get used to it, and before that, I will do a good job of Miss! β
Wu Jian nodded, looked at the lobby again, and said, "It's been dealt with so quickly, it's not a small strength." β
"Yes"
Yiyi looked a little flustered, she didn't expect Wu Jian, who was the store manager, to get up so early, and her performance was also better than that of ordinary maids.
"But with me, you can't do everything by strength, and the work assigned to you must be completed on time."
"But the store manager, I can do it alone."
"I don't believe it! Also, did you misunderstand something? Do you think you can really pay off your debts by working here? Wake her up now, or do you pay for it now? Or will I report it to the police? β
Yiyi was shocked, whispered, "I know what to do" and ran to their room.
"Miss, Miss"
Yiyi gently shook Long Yan, but Long Yan, who was sleeping comfortably, refused to get up.
"I'll only give you thirty seconds!"
Wu Jian's voice from the courtyard made Yiyi make up her mind, and grabbed Long Yan's quilt and pulled it.
Wu Jian, who was in the courtyard, shook his head, picked up the tea he had made every night and drank it.
Just twenty-nine seconds, the sleepy-eyed Long Yan was pushed out by Yiyi. Fortunately, she didn't take off her clothes when she went to bed last night, otherwise it would have been too late.
"Miss, hurry up."
helped Long Yan to sit opposite Wu Jian, and kept urging.
"Night, night."
"Yes!"
A pleasant voice sounded, and the night beside Wu Jian picked up a basin of cold water next to him and poured it over.
Crash!
Woo!!
Long Yan was drenched in water, and even Yiyi was affected.
Although it is summer, the climate here has always been like spring all year round, and the well water that comes out in the morning is like ice, and Long Yan immediately jumps.
"Big, Miss!"
Yiyi suddenly let out a miserable scream, and hurriedly helped Long Yan dry her hair and body.
"Damn! Do you know what you've done!? β
Long Yan sat on the chair and asked Yiyi to help her comb her hair, while questioning Wu Jian.
"That's what I'm going to ask, if you don't do the work you need to do, are you sleeping lazy!?"
Sleep in!?
Long Yan's eyes widened. Speechlessly, he pointed to the still dark sky and said, "It's not dawn yet!" You're abusive! Contrary to morality! β
"And then?" Wu Jian asked with a cold face.
"I'm going back to sleep! Also, because you woke me up, I had to sleep for more than half an hour before I went to work! β
After speaking, Long Yan was about to stand up.
"Humph!"
Wu Jian slapped the table, Long Yan and Yiyi jumped, although they sat down again, Long Yan still looked directly at Wu Jian.
"Why do you think I'm here to make you work here? Can you pay off your debts by working here? Even if I sell you, I won't be able to pay it back! Those things are broken, they are broken, and no amount of money will be returned. But what kind of attitude do you have, just say I'm sorry when you break other people's things like a person who has nothing to do? What kind of tutor are you? I'd love to see what your parents look like! β
"You"
Long Yan couldn't pretend that she hadn't heard the last sentence. It's okay to say she's okay, but it's not okay when it comes to family.
"Not convinced? I don't have any of those collections! I saw your good attitude before, and then I gave you a chance to make up for it. I don't want you to pay it back, but at least I want to see your sincerity. As a result, I only ordered the work yesterday. You're going to give me laziness today. Do you say you're sincere? You don't have any sincerity at all in breaking someone else's stuff. Do you say you have a tutor? β
"I'm not saying I won't do it! I'm sorry for breaking your stuff. I also want to make amends, but if I just vent my anger and abuse you, I can't do it! β
"I'm just arranging a job for you normally, why did I become angry and abusive?"
"Then why do you insist that I get up so early!?"
"Nonsense! We've always been so early here. Didn't I get up earlier than you too!? β
forehead
Only then did Long Yan notice that the prerequisite for Wu Jianneng to quarrel with her here was that Wu Jian also got up so early. Since it's all so early, there is no abuse.
"Why did you get up so early?" Long Yan tilted his head and asked suspiciously.
"Work! We are a hostel, so we need to get up earlier than the guests, and at least we have to prepare breakfast for the guests, understand!? β
"Does breakfast need to be prepared so early?"
Long Yan looked at Yiyi.
"Miss, I've always gotten up so early at home, and even earlier in the kitchen."
"Huh? No way? But didn't I say I wanted something to be served soon? β
Well, now Yiyi needs to explain to her slowly.
But it's okay, without having to bother himself, Wu Jian slowly tasted the hot tea.
"Well, I see. But there are so many talents in the royal family that need to be prepared, so why is it so small here? β
Wu Jian almost didn't squirt out a sip of tea, didn't he need to prepare when he was young?
"We are famous for our morning tea, and there are a lot of people who come in the morning."
"Is that so?"
Long Yan didn't think so, how many people could there be in such a small place?
"I'll go to the kitchen when I know it, Wren is still waiting for you!"
oh
Arriving at the kitchen hub, a young man in his twenties with short blond hair reminiscent of a lion is busy on the stove.
"I thought you weren't coming."
Wren didn't even look back, but he knew who was walking in.
"I'm sorry."
When Yiyi bowed and apologized, Long Yan looked at the kitchen with a curious expression. The kitchen here is not too big, but both the utensils and ingredients are neatly arranged, and the whole is very clean.
"Excuse me, what are we going to do?"
"The one over there is looking around to wash the vegetables, and you're going to help me put the dishes in orderβdo you know what to do?"
"Yes, Miss Iruli taught me yesterday."
Some of the easily damaged ingredients have already been washed, and the remaining potatoes can be safely handed over to Long Yan. At first she thought it was a novelty, but in less than ten minutes she couldn't.
Looking at the dozen on the left hand side and a large number on the right hand side, Long Yan wanted to cry without tears, and immediately gave up: "I also said that it was not abuse!" It's not something that one person can do! β
"Miss, don't worry, I'll help you soon!"
Yiyi didn't care about what would be exposed, and sat down opposite Long Yan after speeding up to complete his work.
"Woo woo yiyi. Thank you."
"Nothing, my work has been done, Mr. Wren, I wonder what else I need to do?"
"Yes, and there are many more. But forget it, if she is alone, I don't know when the road will be completed, you can help her finish it first. β
"Yes, thank you!"
Seeing that Yiyi was about to thank Wren, Long Yan pursed her mouth and muttered, "Why are there only three of us working so much, how did we do it before we came." β
"Of course, it was Xue Yuehua who came to help. But we're already very strapped for manpower. You've done me a great favor by comingβthe clumsy ones don't count. β
Long Yan puffed out her cheeks. I wanted to get angry on the spot, but Yiyi grabbed her hand and comforted her with her eyes. So she turned her grief and anger into strength - although the effect was not very good, but it was also successfully completed.
"Well, it's okay. Your name is Yiyi, isn't it? It should be able to help. The one called Long Yan. You don't have to do the rest. Master Wu Jian just has something for you to do. β
"That"
Of course, Yiyi won't worry that Long Yan will go alone, but she can't leave here, and it would be too suspicious if she insisted on following Long Yan.
"Yiyi. You're right here, I'm on my own! β
"But"
When Yiyi was in a dilemma, Long Yan had already walked out. After much hesitation, Yiyi stayed in the kitchen. The security in this village is not bad, and Wu Jian and them don't look like bad people, so there shouldn't be any problems.
If anything really happened, she could rush over to this village immediately - in this magical world, it was still very easy to leave something to sense.
"What are you going to do!? Go greet guests or tidy up the room? Or serve food to guests!? β
Long Yan crossed her waist in front of Wu Jian.
(Hmph, I learned about it from Yiyi!) οΌ
Long Yan looked proud.
"You're stupid to let you do this kind of thing, and I won't open this store?"
What the!?
"You come with me. What exactly you can do is still something you need to think about slowly, so let's let you know what you might do in the future. β
Wu Jian stood up and walked out of the back door, following closely behind him night and night (Aoi's words, Wu Jian stayed in that world, and he also authorized Luo Cuilian and the others to use Aoi's exchange function in case there was any need).
"Ah, wait for me!"
followed behind Wu Jian, because when he came here, he already knew that this was just a small village, and at most, it was dark and he couldn't see the road clearly. However, outside the village, piles of tents attracted Long Yan's attention.
"So, what are those!?"
Under the dim sky, those were like graves, a little seeping, and Long Yan hid behind Wu Jian.
"Those are the tents of the adventurers, and you have to be afraid of this?"
"Adventurer's tent? Why do they want to live there!? β
"Because the village doesn't have so many rooms for them, and it's a tradition for adventurers to live around the village and protect the village. After adding adventurers, they are going to venture in the wild, and there are only some weak magical beasts nearby, which is just a good time for these newcomers to familiarize themselves with the atmosphere. In addition, we live with rich and powerful people, so don't neglect them. β
"Oh"
Long Yan pouted, rich man? She's seen a lot. She has also seen a lot of strong people, and she is also a parallel mage herself - although the parallel level is the most ordinary.
"What are we doing so early?"
Adventurers, mercenaries and the like were boring, so Long Yan changed the subject.
"Check."
Examine?
Long Yan tilted his head and looked at Wu Jian suspiciously.
"This is it."
Wu Jian walked under a wooden pole that looked like a street lamp on the edge of the village.
It is said to be an edge, but in fact it is just a railing, which can prevent children and small animals raised by villagers from entering and exiting at most.
And then that streetlamp-like thing, it is a street lamp Long Yan doesn't believe it, because she has never seen such a dim street lamp - the magic technique of this world is also very developed, and it can create magic stones that emit no less than the fluorescent lamp, and it can be used repeatedly at night as long as a certain amount of magic power is entered, and of course the best one Long Yan has ever seen.
"What is this?"
"Lights."
"Lights!?"
"That's right, this is the main source of light at night, but we villagers don't come out to hang out at night, so that's enough. And its main function is to exorcise demonic beasts. But because there are those adventurers camping outside for many years, don't worry much, just just in case. Your main job is to look around at this time to see if there is any magic stone that has lost its light, and be sure to change it before the evening of the day. β
At Wu Jian's suggestion, Ye Ye picked up the tools and magic stones that were placed next to him and demonstrated how to replace them.
"Is it right here!?"
Although Long Yan does not eat fireworks in the world, she also knows that there is such a thing as a thief in this world, and she has heard a lot about it after she came out.
"These magic stones are very rough raw ore, at most they are simply polished, and no one will want to steal such things at all. If someone needs it, they can also drop by, these things are often brought back by adventurers, and only a little food is needed to change a lot. β
"Oh"
"Alright, it's your turn to give it a try. Hurry up, I'm going to take you through the good idea of where all these beast repellent stones are arranged. β
The wooden pole where the beast repellent stone is placed is not very high, and even the dragon swallow is easy with the help of tools. However, in order to make her proficient, Wu Jian also asked her to change it in the next one, and then the next one
"Huh!? No, why am I doing this? It has nothing to do with the hotel, does it!? β
You just noticed - Wu Jian looked at her with a smile, this guy is a little cute.
"You're destroying my collection, and of course you're working for me to pay off my debts."
"Is this also your job? For what? β
Just then, an old man heard the movement and walked over. It looked like it was a villager, and it seemed that they were taking a walk, and they walked leisurely.
"Oh, isn't this the village chief? Good morning. (To be continued......)
