Chapter 126: A Chance Encounter in the Holy Capital
In the next competitions in the academy, Noah does not plan to participate, he has already won a few games, and the ranking will not be too low, even if he does not participate in the subsequent competitions, he will be at the level of the middle stream.
The next day, he came to the gate of the academy early and saw the waiting beast cart.
Noah had already gotten up early enough, but he didn't expect this swarthy man to speak without scruples, and his attitude towards doing things was quite serious.
Walking over, Noah saw a big swarthy man, leaning on the car, sleeping with his eyes closed.
The morning of winter is very cold, but the swarthy man is still very thin.
Noah patted the car, and the swarthy man woke up.
If it doesn't please the eye, Noah doesn't even bother to say anything, this swarthy man came here so early to wait, but it made Noah's impression of him a lot better.
"What's your name?" said Noah.
The swarthy man frowned suspiciously, thinking that he had never encountered such a problem when he woke up, but he still answered the employer's question, "My name is Walker." ”
"Okay Walker, I want to ask, are you short of money?" Noah asked.
Walker's eyes widened, thinking to himself what the problem was, was there still a shortage of money in the world?
But generally speaking, behind such a question, there is often a deeper meaning, he nodded happily, "Lacking, very lacking, very lacking!"
"You should also know that the First Magic Academy is about to take a break, and I want to hire you to take me home, my home is in Red Leaf City, eight thousand miles away from here. Noah said.
Walker laughed innocently, this time of year, when those of them who drove furry beasts made a lot of money, and he was not surprised that Noah would make such a request.
"Little guest, at this price, there are not enough copper coins, and there are not enough silver coins. Walker said with a serious look.
Noah nodded, "Don't worry, I'm not so stupid, you quote a price." ”
Walker showed a contemplative look, his eyes were shining, he thought for a long time, and then as if he had made some major decision, he clapped his hands vigorously, "I have a fate with you, the little guest, so let's do it, you give me thirty gold coins, and I will send you home." ”
Noah raised an eyebrow and looked at Walker.
Walker didn't show anything on the surface, his eyes were very sincere, as if he was saying that the price was really affordable, and no matter how low it was, he would lose money, but his heart sank, he knew that he was a bit of a lion, but after a year, he only made a lot of money this time, and he was a little nervous in his heart.
Although Noah's concept of the value of gold coins is very weak, he understands one thing, that is, the price that Walker said must be much higher than the price expected in his heart, or even double, after all, Walker is a greedy person.
Noah actually disliked this set of bargaining and felt that it was very troublesome, but if he clearly realized that he was going to be slaughtered and let it be disposed of, it would not be troublesome, but stupid, Noah made a face and decided to cut half directly, "Fifteen gold coins." ”
Walker's eyes widened in surprise, "Little guest, you offered such a price, I did a loss-making business here, fifteen gold coins is really too low, we are really fateful, you picked me among so many people yesterday, I will give you five gold coins, twenty-five gold coins, what do you think!?"
"Fifteen gold coins is a lot, think for yourself. How many times are you going to pull the cart for fifteen gold coins?" said Noah.
Walker sighed, "Little guest, after all, you want me to send you to Red Leaf City, you also said, there is a distance of eight thousand miles from the Holy Capital, and this is a few months, we have earned really hard money, twenty-five gold coins is a little more, but there is no way, it is all for life." ”
Noah raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect this Walker to actually play the emotional card, and suddenly Noah also cried and lost his face, "Eh, you see I'm a poor student, twenty-five gold coins is really too much, my family has been frugal in order to send me here to school, and all my belongings here are only twenty gold coins, you see if this will work, I will give you seventeen gold coins, and I will have three gold coins left, so I can buy something for my younger brother at home." ”
Walker smashed his mouth, his expression became extremely entangled, and after thinking for a long time, he sighed violently and said, "Little guest, we are really fateful, I will give you this ride!
Noah immediately nodded gratefully, "Thank you so much, Walker, you're a good person." ”
The corners of Walker's mouth twitched, still with a sad face, as if sending Noah back, it was really because of the fate of the two of them, and this order was lost to Xitian, "Get in the car, little guest, I'll take you to the holy capital." ”
Noah smiled imperceptibly, if it was a loss, how could this Walker agree.
The hairy beast walked slowly all the way, and it took a while to come to the Holy Capital, which was still the gate of the Holy Capital, and Noah asked Walker to stop.
Noah didn't want Walker to send him to the door of the Mercenary Association, once he got there, he wouldn't be surprised, you said that you are a poor student, you can't take out twenty-five gold coins, and you actually have this money to pay hundreds or even thousands of gold coins to the Mercenary Association?
In order not to make Walker regret it, Noah had to ask Walker to stop at the city gate, "I'll go buy some, Mr. Walker, you just wait for me here, right?"
If you can hurry less, of course Walker won't refuse, but it's not good to accept it directly, "Little guest, do you want to buy a lot of things, why don't I go with me and help you carry some?"
Noah shook his head and refused, revealing a shy expression, "Don't bother, Mr. Walker, just wait for me here." ”
"Be careful on the road, little guest. ”
Noah nodded, waved at Walker, and walked away.
The mercenary association is not far from the city gate, and it didn't take long for Noah to arrive at the place, and gave the money to the woman who received it yesterday, and after confirming that it was correct, he took the voucher, and Noah went out of the association, although it was helpless to deceive Walker, but since he had been deceived, he could only give the words back to the circle, and after turning a corner, Noah walked towards the downtown area.
Walking into the middle of the city, Noah stopped and stopped, and some didn't know what to buy to go back.
The fruit was rotten before I could get it back.
Swords can also be considered, but the quality of the swords seen along the way is too poor, and it is useless to buy them back, but it is not okay not to buy something.
Thinking of Natsu's rough face due to years of farming, Noah plans to buy some skin care products, but he doesn't know if there is such a thing here.
Just as Noah wanted to look for it, a cheerful exclamation sounded from behind him, "Brother!"
Feeling someone approaching him from behind, Noah was ready to make a move, but the sound of his brother was too familiar, so Noah let down his guard, and the next moment, he was hit by a heavy cannonball.
"Brother, why are you here!"
Noah ripped the person off his body, and the little fat dun had obviously been very moisturized in the past few months, and his weight had skyrocketed, "Becky, you have weighed a lot." ”
Becky showed a look of annoyance, "Really, Grandpa Ono obviously said that I wasn't fat at all, and asked me to eat more, he was really lying to me!"
Noah smiled, he couldn't tell if he was fat or not, he was really stupid.
Noah looked at Vegi carefully, and found that although Beji was fat, it did not affect his delicate face at all, his golden hair was soft on his forehead, and his eyes that were also golden were extremely clear, perhaps because of the life of the Holy See, the whole person exuded a plain but * temperament, even if Beji's behavior was so detached at the moment, but this temperament was not covered up at all.
Noah looked at Card, who was walking slowly, Carder was still the same as before, like an ordinary old man, Card's side was followed by a stone dragon who looked reluctant, the combination of the three of them was like a grandfather with his two grandsons out shopping.
