Chapter 604: The Best Business (5) (Ask for a Recommendation Ticket!Ask for a Monthly Pass!)
Feeling the professionalism of the Rat Catcher Guild, a small piece of lit sandalwood suddenly fell from the sleeve of the shapeshifter's robe. With a flick of his hand, he landed in the corner of the compartment, unnoticed by the owl clerk. With that done, the shapeshifter walked out of the cubicle and returned to the office hall again. Every distance he walked, he repeated what he had just done.
It wasn't until he walked to the door of the office hall that he had bought it for a platinum coin before that it had become more than a dozen pieces, scattered in all corners of the hall. After burning, the sandalwood emitted a quiet smell, but it was masked by the body odor of various creatures coming and going in the office hall, and no one took it seriously at all. And the smoke did not rise, but went down the corner of the wall into the drain.
"What else do you ......, sir" Seeing the shapeshifter hesitating at the door of the hall, the cat-man clerk named Severly came over again to see if he could get any other business. However, before she could finish her words, chaos suddenly ensued.
"How are there so many scavengers!"
"There's a wolf cockroach here! Oh hell, it's biting my toes!"
"Help! these guys are gnawing on scrolls!"
......
Suddenly shouts came from all corners of the office hall. The insect-like body that looks like a soft mud monster, but has a scavenging worm with a sharp beak like a parrot beast, and a cockroach the size of a jackal, with a much enlarged body, and a wolf head on its neck, as if it had gone crazy, broke through the grille of the manhole, and poured into the office hall in large numbers.
Some of these bugs broke through the rattrapper's guild compartment, dragging the cages with live rats and skulls out of it and placing them in the hall to share with their kind. Some of the bugs, who had not grabbed their food, turned their attention to the other creatures in the hall, and they took some of the nezumi as prey and launched a murderous attack on them.
But fortunately, the Exterminator's Guild is also located in the office hall. With the help of professionals, the scavengers and wolf cockroaches were either tamed or expelled back to the manholes in the sewers. In the end, only a few hapless nezumi clerks were killed, and the rest of the customers or clerks were only damaged by their clothes and paperwork, and were not seriously injured.
Just as everyone began to investigate the cause of the accident, the shapeshifters had already left the office hall. still finished the change of clothes in the small alley, and then he walked to the door of the citizens' joy hall, called the sedan chair driver who was "waiting for work" there, and returned to the big market.
"The results are barely acceptable. ”
Walking through the gate of Wancaotang, the shapeshifter saw Puwu, a half-sheep man standing behind the counter, and immediately spoke. Because he wanted to purchase a batch of Zhantan in large quantities, this guy still thought a little carefully, trying to use words to suppress the price first.
However, Puu ignored him, and only smiled and pointed to the wall next to him, on which a bulletin board hung above. "Price Adjustment Notice: Due to the shortage of raw materials, the retail price of Rat Exterminator has been increased to three times......" The shapeshifter read the announcement above, his face suddenly turned pale, and he couldn't help but threaten: "Crazy sheep boy, you dare to sit on the ground and raise the price!"
Hearing that he was called "the boy of the crazy sheep family", the smile on Puwu's face immediately disappeared. He slapped the counter with his hand heavily, making a muffled "bang" that immediately changed the handwriting on the bulletin board on the wall. The number "three" becomes the number "four".
"Sickness comes from the mouth, and disaster comes from the mouth, but in the end, the wallet suffers," without the slightest politeness when the shapeshifter visited last time, Pu Wu directly scolded him this time, "This gentleman, you are probably not a resident of Seal City." Otherwise, how could we not know that the legs and feet of those 'bag inquiring' and 'palm lamp boys' are actually much faster than those of the palanquin drivers?"
As soon as he said this, the shapeshifter's eyelids blinked rapidly, which was his physical reaction when he panicked. An extra dagger appeared in the palm of his hand behind his back, and he began to move towards the counter as if nothing happened, "If you think I'm a ......"
“...... Dumbheaded?" Puu pressed the counter lightly, and a transparent shield suddenly descended from the ceiling, separating it from the shapeshifter, "I don't usually use that word, but if you want to use a knife and act in a daze here—the shops on the route patrolled by the Brotherhood of Order and the Diehards, then I can only admit that you are definitely the fool of fools." ”
Seeing that the other party's face was blue and white, the half-sheep man Pu Wu continued: "I have learned from some well-informed people that you have just gone to the office hall of the guilds in the secretary district. The Rat Catcher's Guild there, you stay for a while, and then the Guild posts a public bounty. Immediately afterwards, many scavenging insects and wolf cockroaches suddenly appeared in the office hall. ”
"Considering what you bought from me before, and your 'test the product' rhetoric you revealed, I have good reason to suspect that you have something to do with the bug attack in the halls of the guilds," Puu continued to press, "Although you are a key member of the Divine Non-Divine Society—don't think about it, I only found out about it myself after watching the bounty of the Rat Catcher's Guild—but if you are arrested by the Brotherhood of Order, or by the Diehards, and finally handed over to the people of the Mercy Exterminator Society. One to three, I'm afraid that even if you are the illegitimate son of Lord Turns, otherwise he will not hesitate to give up on rescuing you. ”
"You're threatening me?"
"Of course not, I'm just stating a possibility. Of course...... "the half-sheep man is pressing forward step by step," ...... If you become my client, then I have a duty to keep it a secret for you for ethical reasons, at least in this matter. ”
"Eighty platinum coins, I want that box of sandalwood. ”
"No, no, no, I'm afraid you'll have to look at the bulletin board again. ”
The shapeshifter turned his head slightly, only to see that on the bulletin board on the wall, the number "four" had somehow changed to the number "ten".
Eventually, after paying the price of a full two hundred platinum coins - for which the shapeshifter, who didn't have that much cash on hand, also put on a magic ring and a talisman - he was able to buy the Zhantan that originally only needed twenty platinum coins. This is already twice as much as his previous budget, but in order to buy Puu's "business ethics", he can only pinch his nose and admit it.
When he returned to the Pasha Tavern, the shapeshifter called for another table of eel dishes as if venting, and ate it for a long time.
