Chapter IV Inventory
"I have a cook lady who usually goes to buy vegetables and cooks. ”
"Didn't you say you lived alone?"
"Yes, I live alone, and after the cook has finished cooking, she will leave and come back to my house every morning, and I usually get up at the ninth prayer in the morning, so she usually comes at this point and prepares breakfast for me at the tenth prayer. "I don't know why I'm trying to explain it so clearly, but I want to make it so clear.
The soldier who spoke looked at his companion, and did not seem to be convinced, but he insisted, "Mr. Mage, please take off your hood!" Again, he and his companion pressed their left hand to the hilt of the sword at their waist.
"Okay, I'll pick it. I took off my hood, and just as I raised my hands, two soldiers pressed their right hands against the hilt of their swords.
I took off my hood, and they saw the face of a young man with a sunny smile on his lips, except that two lines of tears were pouring out of his eyes.
At this moment, a middle-aged woman's voice came: "Mr. Sean, where have you run to? It's noon!"
I looked in the direction from which the voice came, and the cook who worked in my house ran up, and she shouted from afar, and the voice naturally attracted the soldier's attention.
The cook ran to my side, saw my teary eyes, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Sean, quickly put on your hood, your eyes can't touch such a strong sun!"
I gave her a sunny smile and said, "It's okay, these two patrolling soldiers need to look at my face, because no one knows me on this street." ”
When the cook heard this, she immediately turned her head angrily and said to the two soldiers, "How can you be like this! This is Master Sean who lives in that big house, how can you suspect a noble mage?"
"I'm sorry, Master Mage! forgive us for our recklessness!" the two soldiers nodded hurriedly and apologized to me, they had seen the fat cook in the morning, and she had entered the house at the end of the road in the morning.
"It's okay, it's your duty, you're doing a good job, as long as there's a little bit of suspicion, you have to be so responsible, thank you very much for your diligence, it's you who keep us safe. I thanked the two of them, but they were embarrassed, and the soldiers in the distance saw that someone recognized me, so they all went their own way.
"You two, help Master Sean, his eyes will see blurry as long as he looks at the sun, just now his eyes have been in the sun for so long, he must not be able to see clearly, you two harmful things, quickly help Master Sean back!"
The two soldiers didn't say anything, and they obediently helped me to the left and right, and slowly walked towards the big house at the end of the road.
And the people on both sides of the road looked at me with a sudden understanding, and they guessed that the owner of the house at the end of the road for many years looked like this.
I walked into the house at the end of the road with their support, and after going up the stairs at the door of the house, I stood down and said to the two soldiers, "Thank you very much for sending me back!" Aunt Xiao Hong, go and get two silver coins, thank you both. ”
"Lord Sean, give them two silver coins?" the cook looked at me in disbelief.
"Yes, go get it. "I say for sure.
"Okay. The cook reluctantly returned to the house, and soon came out with two silver coins, and handed them into the hands of the two soldiers, while muttering, "These are two thousand copper coins, and it would be nice to give them fifty copper coins each!"
The two soldiers were embarrassed, but they held the silver coin tightly in their hands, for for them, this silver coin was their salary for several months, and they usually only took more than a hundred copper coins a month.
The two of them thanked me for their kindness, and then ran to the gate of my courtyard, standing there straight on one side, they were originally arranged to protect the rich area here, and they happened to correspond to two families, standing guard outside each courtyard, but the rich people here did not take them seriously, and they were naturally unwilling to do their duty, so the original fixed post became a mobile whistle.
These two had just been praised by the owner of the house for their conscientiousness, and each of them was rewarded with a silver coin, so they naturally had to be more dutiful. The other soldiers saw that these two people were working so hard, so they naturally came up to ask about the situation, and when they heard that these two went to intercept the owner of the house, they were praised and rewarded, although they did not know how much.
These soldiers were envious and jealous, and they were even more reluctant to stand guard among the other rich families, and they all wandered around the largest family at the end of the road, hoping to be discovered by the owner of the house, and to receive a reward or something.
I saw this in the house, and I laughed again, who knew that they were protecting the very person they were going to capture.
I stood at the window and watched the big-headed soldiers for a while, and then sat comfortably on the recliner in front of the fireplace, and Aunt Xiao Hong immediately brought a cup of freshly brewed coffee.
I motioned for her to put her coffee on the coffee table next to the chaise longue, and she put it away and asked, "Sir, do you need lunch?"
"Okay, but let me rest for a while, you can go about other things first, and I'll call you when I want to eat later." I nodded.
"Oh, by the way, sir, that guy who likes to doodle in front of our house is scribbling on the door again!" Aunt Xiao Hong complained to me again, saying that there were always some inexplicable graffiti at the door of my house.
"Hehe, that guy was caught by you?"
"If you want to say that the angry man is here, I didn't catch it today, but according to your instructions, sir, I extended the graffiti picture. After speaking, Aunt Xiao Hong took out a piece of paper from her pocket, and there was an emblem like a shield on the paper, I took the paper and looked at it, threw the paper into the fire of the fireplace, and then said to Aunt Xiao Hong: "I know, next time there will be graffiti like this, extend the pattern down and show me, okay, you go to work." ”
This is what I specially told Aunt Xiao Hong, if someone draws some inexplicable graffiti at my gate, they have to show me the extended pattern, of course, the graffiti can be washed off.
This kind of graffiti basically has to appear twice every other week, this situation has been in the past four years, which makes Aunt Xiao Hong very confused, every time, she extends this pattern, I always burn it at a glance, however, I will always be away from home for a few days after a few days, fortunately, when I leave, I will leave a note for her, and today I didn't leave a note, but I didn't see anyone in the morning, so, in fact, she was quite anxious, because today is the day of her payroll.
