Chapter 330: Bargaining and Dinner
"I had a personal whim, and my sister was going to take a break from the many things in the Teutonic camp and my personal combat training, so I came. Feng Longde replied, and then looked at Marisa, who showed all her yellow blonde hair and a twisted braid on one side of her hair hanging down in front of her, and Suika, who was caught by Reimu not far away and was beaten all over her head, "What I want to ask is what is the situation today? Why are everyone here wearing the shrine maiden costumes of the Hakuri Shrine Maiden except for me and Caroline?"
"It's exactly the same as why you and your sister Caroline came to Hakurei Shrine, and I'm also on a whim!" Marisa scratched her head, spread her left hand and said to Feng Longde, "Originally, I also came here to hang out, but after a long time, it was boring, so I ran to Reimu's room, and I saw the ghost boy who was also honestly bored here because he couldn't appear in front of visitors and tourists at this time, and that's it, Da☆Ze!"
"To put it bluntly, it's so idle that you start to play dress-up, you can really toss. Reimu walked back from the other side of the room with Cuixiang in his hand, and after putting her down, he also found a distance closer to Feng Longde and the other three and sat down, but unlike Feng Longde and the other three, Reimu was in a sitting position, "Even if it's over this time, I don't have the time to worry too much about the clothes with you two - but one thing, don't tear it up for me, otherwise don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless." ”
"Cut, it looks like we're going to wear your clothes to help heal the mutations, but can you still wear them like this today?How bad are the quality of your clothes?" Marisa spread her hands to her old Hime-friend disdainfully, "Didn't you always wear Rinnosuke's spare clothes when you went to Korindo to ask Rinnosuke to change the size of your shrine maiden costume for you?"
"I don't really know how Rinnosuke feels, but I think I know how you feel. Reimu let out a playful smirk, "Didn't you do the same before?"
"Who's jealous of Da☆Ze!!" Marisa's face flushed, as red as the red fabric on her Hakurei shrine maiden costume.
"Ahem, ahem", a deliberate cough interrupts Reimu and Marisa's impending argument. The eyes of everyone present turned to the source of the coughing sound.
Seeing that Reimu and Marisa had stopped the dispute that had just started, Feng Longde also stopped the coughing sound he deliberately made, and then took off his demon ring-winged barrel helmet: "This year is the New Year, you can still quarrel over a matter of clothes, it's just drunk, and you change your clothes on credit and wear the clothes of the shopkeeper, what the hell is this Truth Marisa, how about the effect of the various synthetic magic crystals that you and Pache and Alice bought from our Teutonic camp last time?"
Marisa: "Oh. Faceless uncle, you actually have a face!!"
Feng Longde: "Get out! I'll repeat it one last time, my name is Feng Longde, not a faceless uncle!!, even if you call me uncle, don't mention the word faceless!! my face looks good on my head!!!
"Poof"
"Hahahaha!!"
Hearing Feng Longde's angry roar, Reimu and Cuixiang, who were sitting on the side, were happy: Reimeng is okay, at least I know not to laugh out loud and hold back, but Cuixiang, the straightforward Lori Ghost King, does not have this brain circuit, and directly burst into laughter with the loudest voice, making Feng Longde's face appear with an expression like "What do you all mean".
This is also a good thing: although if you look into it carefully, Feng Longde on the second floor of the tavern in the world on Christmas Eve has met Marisa and them with his true face, but most of the rest of the time, he is basically wearing the demon ring-winged barrel helmet, resulting in the Gensokyo girls who have dealt with him more or less The first impression of him is basically that he is covered in heavy armor and wearing a closed metal helmet, even if he has seen his face, it is normal that he can't remember what it looks like. Who told him that he usually doesn't like to show his face.
"The effect is very good, each magic crystal has a lot of magic power, and the structure is stable, whether it is used as a consumable for magic or the materials needed for alchemy, it is very suitable for Da☆Ze. Seeing that Feng Longde was a little angry, Marisa quickly answered his question to divert his attention, "But the only problem is that it still feels a bit expensive, Uncle Knight, can you lower the price for us a little more?"
"Damn, I said you can call me uncle. You really called it, you just don't call me by my name" Feng Longde pulled down the chainmail turban he was still wearing on his head and wrapped it around his neck. Covering his eyes with his hands, "Isn't the price all negotiated? Do you want to change the price? You must know that the artificial synthetic magic crystals that we sell you in the Teutonic camp are much cheaper than the magic crystals you used to produce from the mines on the Tengu side of the Youkai Mountain and the mines run by the human inhabitants themselves, and there is still a continuous guarantee in supply, isn't it a bit unreasonable to change the price after this condition?"
"Lower the price a little bit, Da☆Ze, you know that we are all your old customers in the future, so we can't give you a discount or something?" Marisa replied with a smile, "And we don't just buy it with money, all kinds of alchemy recipes and magic potions, as well as our extra mess of magic materials, will be sold to you." The magicians in your camp who usually wear black robes and don't show up much should benefit a lot, right? Can't we make a small discount on the price of magic crystals, or we can also exchange some alchemy recipes or alchemy products from you for a fee?"
"This case" Feng Longde hesitated for a moment, he had no experience at all in this area, so he immediately consulted Caroline about related matters through soul contact, and then nodded at Marisa and replied: "Okay, we will give a ninety-fifty discount on the price of each synthetic magic crystal on the original basis." At that time, we will also sell some alchemy recipes that you don't have, and as for the alchemy products, we can't sell them to you if we don't have enough of them, so we can't sell them. We'll talk about that later. ”
"Eh, it's really stingy, it's only a ninety-five discount" Marisa was slightly disappointed after hearing Feng Longde's answer, staring at Feng Longde and complaining quietly.
Feng Longde's expression didn't change at all, and he still maintained that stiff poker face: "Why don't you just get nine or six discounts?"
"If you don't have a ninety-five discount, you're even more ruthless, if I really bargain with you a few times, I guess I'll have to pay more money to buy your magic crystals."
☆
After negotiating the discount of the magic crystal and some related mutual trading issues. Realizing that the clock had passed until noon, several people began to prepare for lunch.
Originally, Reimu was complaining about how to add two more guys to her here today, but before she could get up and go to the kitchen, Caroline solved this problem perfectly: Caroline wore two space rings before she came out this time, or the two that Feng Longde gave her, plus she hadn't used them when she usually used the space rings to transport materials, so there were basically some food and drinks in these two space rings, and now they just came in handy.
The food brought in from the outside world is basically some common cooked food, such as roast chicken, ham, bread and steamed buns, snacks or chocolate, which do not conform to the local style just by looking at the packaging, are all stored in Feng Longde's own special food pantry. It doesn't leak easily, or he is more accustomed to exclusive drinks that are inevitable, basically Coke Sprite beer and mineral water, but these things don't make Reimu, Marisa, and Suika make a fuss: the owner of Korindo, Mori Jinlinosuke, sometimes finds similar things from time to time when he goes to the Void Mound to collect outside items, and occasionally runs to Korindo to "buy" things and "borrow" Reimu and Marisa had also drunk these strange outside drinks, so they didn't feel anything, at most they were surprised that Feng Longde's related inventory was quite large, and they hadn't finished drinking it until now.
"You Teutons are amazing. You can still have a ring that can be used anytime and anywhere like the gap ability of the purple guy, I almost wonder if you are related to the purple guy. Suka sighed as she looked at the various foods and drinks that Caroline had taken out of the spatial ring between her fingers. Then he picked up a bottle of Tokushima beer and directly bit off the bottle with his teeth and took a big sip, "Tsk, this kind of wine is too weak, Feng Longde, don't you have any other kinds of spirits there?"
"No, except for the bottle of Spiatus Rectified Vodka that was already given to you just now. The rest is Tokushima beer. Feng Longde frowned and looked at the Tokushima beer bottle in Cuixiang's hand, and the glass stubble on the neck of the neck was clearly visible due to the bite of the teeth, "I don't drink much fruit wine, basically I drink grain wine with different alcohol concentrations, so I basically drink some beer brought from the outside world and self-produced ale in the world." Drink Spiatus Rectified Vodka only when you need to cheer up or celebrate. ”
"I remember that there were shops in the village that sold all kinds of liquor, like what was it called, brandy, oh, and what wines and ciders, mainly the white-skinned villagers would buy, and I was still used to drinking sake. Reimu poured a glass of Tokushima beer and took a sip and frowned, not looking very used to the taste of Tokushima beer, "But I'm a little familiar with Marisa for other drinks, we seem to have drunk something similar at Rinnosuke's, right?"
"Well, I think I've drunk it, and I remember that sometimes we find something similar when we're cleaning the shrine, isn't it?" Marisa picked up a bottle of Coca-Cola and looked at it carefully, unscrewed the lid and tasted it familiarly, then nodded, obviously she hadn't drunk this drink that should only be available in the outside world, "But in the end, it was basically all used by you to take it to Rinnosuke to pay off the debt, otherwise judging from the debt you usually paid to him, you may not be able to get rid of the shrine directly to him." ”
"Well, even if I take credit, I'll still think about changing it, but what about you? every time you say, 'borrow for a while,' and the result is completely gone. Reimu scoffed at Marisa's words, "Do you really take Rin-do as your own home?"
"Gotta have it, have a drink, you can all continue the previous topic and plan to continue arguing, I don't know if it's to say that you are on the same page or that you have a good relationship. Feng Longde raised his forehead, "But I am quite interested in the point you just mentioned: you said that you can occasionally find outside items here, is this true?"
"That's right, just when I clean the yard, I can find some strange things from time to time, let alone every time I clean up, and there are basically more or less of these things hidden in the corners that I don't usually pay attention to. Reimu nodded, "Hakurei Shrine is located on the border between the outside world and Gensokyo, so it can be said that it is located in the overlapping place of the two worlds, so it is easy to see outside objects and encounter outside humans who have strayed here. ”
"Well, I heard you guys talk about a person named Mori Kinrinnosuke, as if you still have a good relationship with him, can you tell me about it?" Feng Longde asked, although he basically knew about this character from the Gensokyo setting in the outside world, but who knew what the real character was like, so it was better to knock on the side.
"Well, Rinnosuke usually lives at the entrance to the Enchanted Forest, where there is a prop shop he opened, called Korindo, but few people will run to him to buy things, so he usually runs to the way of rethinking or the tomb to collect items from the outside world in addition to reading books. Marisa scratched the back of her head, then grabbed a piece of white bread and said as she slowly gnawed on, "Also, Rinnosuke is a big wood, although he is not as serious as you in this regard, but it is not much lighter, I guess he has made himself stupid by pondering those messy outside objects and reading those outside books all day long!"
Don't answer while sarcastically mocking the questioner. Feng Longde rubbed his forehead, "In a word: the Mori Kinrinnosuke you mentioned is an approachable but dull uncle who likes to be alone and runs a prop shop?"
"That's right, Da☆Ze!" Marisa nodded, "It occurred to me that Uncle Knight, you're very similar to Rinnosuke, Da☆Ze!, both of them are easy-going guys who like to be alone with all kinds of inexplicable things, aren't they? )
