Chapter 296: Claire's Fans
"Master! Lord Viscount has introduced us to a customer! The boy's immature voice resounded throughout the store.
After a while, a burly middle-aged man with a heavy looking hammer in his hand appeared inside, and he strode forward.
Gazing at Maude, he asked, "Were you introduced by Lord Viscount?" ”
Seeing the menacing man in front of him, Maude's momentum couldn't help but weaken, and said weakly: "It was Claire who introduced me to ......"
Hearing Claire's name, the blacksmith's eyes lit up, and then a look of excitement appeared on his face, and he said, "That's right! ”
Seeing the blacksmith's expression, Maude also had a slight guess in his heart, and asked tentatively: "Claire said that coming here to report his name can be discounted, is it true?" ”
"Huh?!" The blacksmith grimaced and said solemnly: "Discount? What are you talking about! ”
Then he waved his hand, pointed to the armor and weapons hanging on the wall, and said generously: "These things! You can choose what you like! No money! ”
Maud glanced back at Ellie behind her in surprise, licked her lips and was about to say something, but was interrupted by the blacksmith.
"You guys watch first, I'll go out for a while!" The blacksmith walked briskly towards the door with his hammer in hand, his face full of excitement.
In a few moments, Maud and the others in the room heard the familiar roar of the blacksmith, "Old Tom at the door!" Come out and see! I'll just say my blacksmithing skills are better than yours! You're still hard-mouthed! ”
"Now look! Lord Viscount has introduced me to a client! After that, I nailed a mark to my shop: "The blacksmith shop recommended by the Viscount!" "Hahaha!"
The wild laughter in the back resounded throughout Blacksmith Street, attracting the eyes of tourists and adventurers alike.
After a while, an old man who also carried a hammer appeared on the opposite side, and when he saw that the competitor opposite him was so proud, he was angry, and gritted his teeth and said, "You are proud!" For the quality of your home, are you too embarrassed to nail that mark? Don't embarrass the Viscount. ”
The strong blacksmith didn't care, and replied directly: "Hahahaha!" You just can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour! ”
……
Half an hour later, each of the three Maude stood at the corner of Blacksmith Street with a complete set of high-quality armor and weapons in their hands.
No matter what Maude explained, Claire had already said that he would send the armor, and the strong blacksmith still gave them weapons and some small accessories. The smile on his face didn't feel like he was losing money, but he was very enthusiastic and couldn't wait to send them more.
Maud walked on the way to the Adventurer's Guild with the pile of equipment almost as tall as him on his head, and turned around and asked, "So, is Claire the lord of Nafu City?" ”
Ellie also had an unbelievable look in her eyes, "Listening to them, it seems like that's what it is." ”
Little Fat Dun walked at the back of the line, colliding the two shields on his arms to test the hardness and quality, and then answered: "People have followed us all the way." ”
Ellie patted her chest with palpitations, "It's good that I didn't say anything bad about him at the time, I remember saying a lot of good things." ”
"Okay, don't think about that, let's go to the Adventurer's Guild first, and then repay him when we get stronger." Maude's eyes were full of energy.
"Good !!"
……
A few days after Claire returned to the Viscount's Mansion, she lived very comfortably in the Viscount's Mansion these days, without so many calculations in the wizarding world, and without the passivity when she was used as a knife in the royal capital, she still stayed comfortably in her own territory.
"Knock knock!" After knocking on the door, Reagan walked in.
The news of Claire's disappearance was not reported back to Shane, so Reagan still had the same flat expression as usual when he saw Claire come back, but he felt that Claire had become a little different.
"What's wrong, Reagan?" Claire put down the spell book of space spells in his hand, and when he reached the archmage stage, he could start to involve some advanced spells in this aspect of space.
"Young Master, the people from the Adventurer's Guild are coming to you."
"Huh?" Claire put on a funny smile as she stood up and smiled, "Let's go, let's see." ”
……
"Viscount Claire Gui'an!"
As soon as Claire reached the parlor, a shrewd man in his thirties stood up and bowed deeply to Claire.
Claire's eyes flashed with a hint of discoloration, and she waved her hand, "Don't be so polite, please take a seat." ”
"You're welcome, you're not welcome at all!" The other party raised his body, still looking respectful.
Claire sat down on the main seat and asked, "What do you call it?" ”
"Just call me York, I'm the head of the Adventurer's Guild in Nafu City, and I hope to cooperate with Lord Claire in the future."
Claire was a little unpredictable about his thoughts, for Claire, the other party was a little too enthusiastic, and there was a feeling of being courteous about nothing, but Claire felt that the other party's tone was so sincere, and everything was a little unpredictable.
York pushed the paper on the table in front of Claire and said softly, "This is the contract between our Adventurers' Guild and you, you see." ”
"This is the best contract I can get from headquarters." York added.
Claire pursed her lips, reached out and picked up the paper on the table and looked through it, indeed as the other party said, the conditions on it can be said to be very good, and there is no place to dig holes.
The above contracts are all about the profit distribution between the adventurer's guild and the local city administrator, that is, those adventurers' hunted magical beasts or collected magic materials, as the city where the adventurer's guild is located, is entitled to a certain profit.
Otherwise, how could there be so many city lords desperately wanting to establish an adventurer's guild in their own city, wouldn't they want a piece of the pie! Lying down and doing nothing to be able to make a large amount of profit is something that every city lord dreams of.
After reading the contents of the contract, Claire was still very puzzled, raised the contract in her hand and shook it in front of her, squinting at York in front of her for a few seconds before she spoke: "You are Joseph's man?" ”
York couldn't react, "Huh? Who are you talking about? ”
Seeing that the other party's reaction didn't look like she was lying, Claire pursed her lips again, "Nobody, who sent you here?" ”
"Headquarters." York was also a little confused, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's fine." Claire shook her head, took out a pen and signed her name on the contract, and handed it back, "Okay, is there anything else?" ”
"No more! Excuse me. York stood up, bowed to Claire again, and retired.
After the whole process, Claire was confused, not knowing what the other party's purpose was.
……
Outside the Viscount's Palace, York, who had just come out, flipped through the contracts, and finally stopped at Claire's signature, looking at the signature with excitement on his face.
"Oh, I was a little timid just now, next time, next time I have the opportunity, ask Lord Viscount for an autograph!"
With that in mind, York staggered back to the Adventurers' Guild in a happy mood.
Because of the conflict between Claire and the church before, Joseph knew that Claire didn't like anyone to meddle in the affairs of Nafu City at all, so Joseph did not send a person in charge of Nafu City who had a relationship with him, not only that, but also specially selected a person with a clear identity and background and the ability to work, that is, York sent over.
And York is because he is too clear and doesn't like to be in the same stream with those people, so he has nothing to do with various forces. So after learning that he was sent to Nafu City, after getting to know Claire a little, he suddenly became a fan of Claire.
