The sexy woman heard the name of the prime minister of the dynasty, but did not react in particular. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

I saw that after she continued to spit a few smoke rings into the roof, she said slowly:

"Eight thousand gold coins. ”

"What?!"

For a moment, Alicia suspected that she had misheard. She originally thought that such a thing as finding a thief to deliver a letter would never exceed a three-digit amount.

"Don't be surprised, according to the difficulty level of the task, at least this price. The woman said very calmly.

"Infiltrating the mission shouldn't be difficult for your Thieves Guild, right?"

"Hehe, that also depends on where the mission is infiltrated. Since it is the most heavily guarded royal palace in Garbadia, Yebasta, you must use the best nighthawk (warbler) in the guild. ”

Nighthawk (Warbler) is another name for the class of thieves, especially those in guilds who prefer to refer to themselves by this title. Although it is not pronounced as classified, the male thief writes Nighthawk, while the female thief writes Nightingale. Alicia had heard this knowledge from Talon on her way here.

The sexy woman continued:

"If you want to send a letter to the prime minister of the court, and you can't let anyone know, then we can basically guess the content of this letter even if we don't read it. Such a dangerous task can only be successfully completed by asking us in the Thieves Guild. ”

Seeing the woman's confident attitude, Alicia immediately regretted it.

When Alicia said the content of the task, she had already revealed all the hole cards to the other party. Now the other party has clearly understood that the person who can accomplish what Alicia asks for is none other than the Thieves Guild. Then, how much to open depends entirely on the mood of the other party.

"It's too expensive......"

Alicia has more than 14,000 savings now, and she is very reluctant to send a letter to make her take out sixty percent of it at once.

Seeing that Alicia was hesitant and did not dare to decide. The woman tapped the silver pipe on the corner of the table a few times, shook off the ash from it, and said in a tone of urging in her voice:

"If you're sure you want to entrust us with this task, pay half of the money as a deposit today. We guarantee that we will be able to help you complete the task within a month, and bring a response to the goal. ”

The efficiency of the Thieves' Guild was staggering, but Alicia was saddened, the amount was too much higher than she expected.

"Can it be cheaper?"

"I'm sorry, but the Thieves' Guild never bargains. The woman said categorically.

Seeing that Alicia was in a tangle, Daron walked up to her and said to her:

"It's okay, if you can't decide now, we can go back and discuss it again. ”

In fact, Daron himself scoffed at such a price. But there is no way, to entrust the thieves' guild, and the other party has always offered as much as the price. Unless the client has a background and influence, then the two sides still have a chance to sit down and talk, otherwise, you must be obedient.

Hearing the supportive attitude in Darlon's tone, Alicia nodded silently in her heart, and said quietly on the surface:

"The price is so high that I'll have to go back and think about it before I decide. ”

The woman glanced at the companion behind Alicia out of the corner of her eye, and said with a slight upturn of her mouth:

"No problem, but since you're here, you have to leave some 'contract money', what do you say?"

"Contract gold?" Alicia frowned at the unheard word.

Zazacha also frowned, as he clearly felt the shadows that were about to move around him, and his breath gradually became restless.

The woman raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at the little girl in front of her, and carefully taught:

"The Thieves' Guild's point of contact isn't a place to come and go. You've come with so many people, and you'll have to pay some money to let you out. ”

Now, Alicia understood. The so-called contract money is just a proof. The code words of the contact point are changing every day, and the location is hidden in the dark alleys of the market, just not wanting others to find out. After all, they are doing underground business, so naturally they can't see the light. Ordinary customers, because they paid the Thieves Guild to complete the task, so that the two of them were tied together because of this relationship, and of course the customer didn't want others to know that he asked the guild to do this kind of thing, so naturally he wouldn't say it. However, Alicia and the others came to the contact point, but they didn't pay, so there was a danger of leaking secrets after they went out, so the so-called contract was actually a confidential agreement. And this agreement is achieved through Alicia paying a certain amount of money to the Thieves' Guild. In this way, the money is a kind of proof that Alicia has asked the Thieves' Guild to entrust a certain matter. Although it can't be ironclad evidence in the actual sense, it has psychologically achieved the effect of the thieves' guild sealing.

After understanding, Alicia's face was a little unhappy. Obviously, the other party's offer was too high, so the negotiation failed. But as a result, Alicia still had to spend money in vain.

But there was no other way for her. Either pay the deposit of the three thousand gold coins directly here and talk about the task. Or, just pay the contract money and go out. Otherwise, the guild would definitely not let them go back easily.

After figuring this out, Alicia could only take out a bag of gold coins from her pocket and throw it on the table, with a reluctant expression on her face.

The woman took the bag of gold coins in her hand, shook her head directly, and said:

"Not enough. ”

Alicia immediately wanted to rush over and hit someone, but Daron grabbed her and whispered in her ear:

"Don't be impulsive, we can't afford to mess with the thieves' guild, give her two more bags. ”

Alicia bit her lip and hesitated for a long time, but finally took out two other bags of gold coins from her pocket and threw them on the table. In each bag, there are about fifty gold coins, and these three bags are one hundred and fifty gold coins.

"That's all, no more. Alicia said with a grunt.

The woman used her long pipe to pluck all the gold coins in front of her, and then nodded with satisfaction, and said:

"Thank you for your patronage, and if you change your mind, welcome to come back. ”

"Humph!" Alicia turned and left.

Everyone left the room and re-embarked on the spiral staircase they had walked from. Mei Lufa was the last one, and when she looked back, she saw the woman in the smoky room, dangling her long white legs, smoking a cigarette holder with a calm face.

Climb the stairs to the entrance. The fierce man stood there like a stone statue, his hands on his chest. When everyone was out, he walked to the front to lead the way, then turned a corner to the back of the shoe shop and knocked on the wall with a certain rhythm.

After a brief silence, there was a different rhythm of tapping on the other side of the wall, and then the man pressed the switch next to him, and the wall moved to the side as before, and in front of him was the ordinary shoe shop.

Back at the hotel, Alicia gathered everyone in their room at Daron and closed the door. At this point, Alicia dared to take a big breath.

"I'm so tired!~ I feel like someone is following me on the way back, I'm so nervous!"

Daron smiled slightly and said:

"The Thieves' Guild is such a place, it's like it's not in the same world as us. ”

"Brother Daron, was anyone following us on the road when we came back?" asked Melevia, a little frightened. She wasn't very timid, and the smoky basement had turned into a monster-inhabited cave in her imagination.

"You'll have to ask Zazacha about this. Daron pointed at Zazacha with his chin and said.

Zazacha snorted and said:

"There are indeed people who are following. ”

Alicia and Meleva were startled at the same time, and they instantly turned into cats, moved to the window in unison, hid their figures, and quietly poked their heads out of the window, and looked at the road outside the window.

"But the breath is gone when you get to the hotel. ”

The words of Zazha tea made the two flower girls feel relieved.

"It's the rule of the thieves' guild, they have to make sure we don't go to suspicious places or talk to suspicious people along the way. Kyeloa explained.

Daron also leaned out and looked out the window, and expressed a different opinion:

"Or maybe it's to confirm where we live, so that if we betray them, they can get rid of us in the first place. ”

"Huh!~~~~~"

This sentence scared the two girls very much. Alicia shuddered at the thought that she might be assassinated at night.

Seeing Alicia's reaction, Daron laughed heartily and said:

"If you're too scared, come and sleep in our room. ”

Zazacha and Kyloa frowned at the same time, and they both turned their heads to Daron in unison to cast a deep gaze.

"Hey, what kind of eyes are you looking at, I just think they can come and sleep with us if they're scared." Didn't we sleep together when we were camping outside?"

Zazacha looked at Daron, stepped back, stepped back, and finally dodged far away......

Kylloya sighed on the side and said depressedly:

"Daron, no matter what the purpose, letting an underage girl come to sleep in her room is not something that can be said openly. ”

"This ...... Kyeloa, I didn't mean that, I ......"

"I'll fight!"

As Daron was still explaining, he saw that Alicia had punched him in the stomach, almost foaming at the mouth.

"Shameless! Alicia Fist of Justice!"

I don't know how many times Talon has been beaten. Maybe this brave warrior should really read more books, grow his emotional intelligence, and stop being so open-mouthed.

That night, of course, Alicia and Meluva fell asleep in their rooms. And because there were no triple rooms in the hotel, Talon and Kyeloa shared a room, and Zazacha stayed in a separate room.

On this night, a shadow sneaked into Alicia's room and quietly approached Alicia's bedside while Zazacha, who was extremely sensitive to breath, was asleep in her sleep.
