Chapter 37: A Gold Coin
Xu Shuo told Mei about the straw hat coachman who put a cold arrow behind his back, but he didn't look at the man's face carefully, so he couldn't describe the other party's appearance, and all he could provide was a clue to the existence of such a person.
"The coachman in the straw hat...... I know, I'll send someone to ask the Wink family, it's not ours. Do you know anything else? May said.
"And about the leader of those guys......"
Xu Shuo talked about that kind of physical characteristics and the weapons used.
"We already know this, the daughter of the Wen Ke family has already shared this information with us, do you know anything else?" May asked.
Xu Shuo just wanted to talk about the rank of the masked leader, but he immediately thought that if the president asked him how he knew, he would not be able to answer, so he said, "No, I know very little, I should be the same as Lilian." ”
"Lilian?" Mei's eyes looked at Xu Shuo with meaning.
Xu Shuo thought that Mei had never heard of this name, and explained: "It's Adam Wink's daughter." ”
"I know, but you actually called her by her name." Mei had an ambiguous smile on her face.
And Xu Shuo didn't realize the problem yet, blinked his eyes, and asked, "Can't you?" ”
"Yes, of course." Mei walked out of the counter and patted Xu Shuo on the shoulder, "We're going to find someone now, don't follow, you can have a good rest these days." ”
"Uh-oh." Xu Shuo nodded, he didn't want to participate, "That, president." ”
"Is there anything else you can do?" May said.
"Well, I want to ask, is there any pay for this escort mission?" Xu Shuo asked cautiously.
Mei looked at Xu Shuo with some surprise, "The target of the escort was robbed, and the employer was also killed, what do you think?" ”
"Got it." Xu Shuo said with some disappointment.
"You saved the daughter of the Wen family, didn't the Wen family pay you?" May asked.
Xu Shuo shook his head.
Seeing Xu Shuo's declining face, Mei pinched his face with a smile and said, "Xiaoyu, give me a gold coin." ”
After Mei finished speaking, a gold coin flew from behind Mei, Mei didn't look back, two fingers pressed her shoulders and clamped back, just clinch the gold coin.
Xu Shuo was stunned, no matter how high his reflexes were, he couldn't grab something flying from behind him like this, he was worthy of being the president of the Hunter Guild, and his strength was great.
Mei stuffed the gold coin into Xu Shuo's trouser pocket and said lightly: "This is my private gift to you, it can be regarded as a little encouragement, do it well, newcomer." ”
Xu Shuo perked up and saluted, "Thank you, President!" President, I'll be messing with you in the future! Go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire! I will do whatever the president says, and the president will never go west! "If the president wants to have a child with me, I will never refuse! Xu Shuo added in his heart.
"It's a good awakening." Mei smiled and patted Xu Shuo's face, "It's my person from now on." ”
Xu Shuo's old face flushed: "Yes!" ”
Mei nodded and looked at everyone: "Okay guys, let's go." ”
Led by Mei, the Bounty Hunters Guild walked out of the door in a majestic manner, and only Xu Shuo and Xiaoyu were left in the lobby.
Xu Shuo looked at Xiao Yu and suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, I forgot to return the knife to the president, that, Miss Xiaoyu, can you help me return it to the president?" Xu Shuo took the knife and handed it to Xiaoyu.
"No problem, leave it to me." Xiaoyu said softly.
"Thanks, then I'll go, goodbye." Xu Shuo said.
Xiao Yu bowed down and said, "Walk slowly, Mr. Xu Shuo." ”
When Xu Shuo walked out of the door, Miao Zhen was standing next to the door, and when she saw Xu Shuo, she said with a smile: "Brother Xu Shuo, you seem to be in a good mood." ”
"Is it that obvious?"
Xu Shuo touched his face, only to find that the corners of his mouth were raised.
"Well, a little." Xu Shuo smiled and took out the gold coin that the president had given him just now from his pocket and showed it to Miao Zhen, "How is it?" ”
Miao Zhen's mouth opened into an "O" shape, and he hurriedly stretched out a hand to cover the gold coin, and then nervously turned his head to look around, and after making sure that no one noticed them, he whispered to Xu Shuo: "Brother Xu Shuo, it's wrong to steal money." ”
"Say what? This is my bonus for doing the task yesterday, the bonus. Xu Shuo said.
"Really?" Miao Zhen looked incredulous, "I've heard that bounty hunters are very profitable, but I didn't expect to make so much in one day, can I take a look?" ”
"Give." Xu Shuo put the gold coin into Miao Zhen's hand.
Miao Zhen took it in his hand and carefully checked it, and exclaimed: "It looks smaller than a silver coin, but it seems to be very important, so powerful." ”
Xu Shuo scratched his nose and said with a smile: "Hehe, I'm going to take it to eat a good meal, have you eaten it, if not, come with me." ”
Miao Zhen shook his head and returned the gold coin to Xu Shuo, "Thank you, Brother Xu Shuo, but don't need it, I usually only eat breakfast and dinner." ”
"How's that going to work? How old are you, you eat so little, you won't grow tall! Come on, you've given me a meal, and let me treat you to a meal, or I'll not be able to go. Xu Shuo said.
"It's okay, Brother Xu Shuo, you don't have to care, and I still have to sell cookies." Miao Zhen patted the basket in his hand and said.
Xu Shuo snapped his fingers and said, "Ah yes, I ate your biscuit just now, it's quite delicious, I bought it all, give it to me." ”
"Brother Xu Shuo, you don't have to take care of me like this, you can't finish these cookies alone, if you want to eat them, I'll ask you to eat a few pieces." Miao Zhen said.
"I didn't take care of you, I happen to have a friend I want to thank, I'll buy it back for her to taste." Xu Shuo said with a serious face, "However, you shouldn't be able to find a gold coin, come with me to eat something, and then wait for me to take the loose money before giving it to you." ”
“…… Brother Xu Shuo, you are really a good person" Although Miao Zhen was very young, he could see through Xu Shuo's excuse and knew that Xu Shuo wanted to invite her to dinner. She didn't insist either, and said, "Okay, I know, I'll go with you, do you want to go to the boss's place to eat?" I can ask the boss to give you a cheaper. ”
"Boss?" Xu Shuo didn't remember who it was for a moment, but he quickly reacted that Miao Zhen was talking about the tavern owner with a big belly, Xu Shuo hurriedly shook his head into a rattle, "No, no, no, let's change it, I'm afraid he will kill me." ”
At Xu Shuo's insistence, they finally settled on a restaurant in a shopping street not far from the slum.
**
The environment in the restaurant is not bad, and there are many customers, so it seems that the meals sold here should not be very bad. Xu Shuo and Miao Zhen found a location near the corner and went in.
A waitress brought a small blackboard with six meals written in an otherworldly language.
"Good afternoon, what would you like to eat?" The waitress glanced at Miao Zhen and said, "Do you need me to read today's menu to you?" ”
"You ...... Is that all there is to eat? Xu Shuo pointed to the small blackboard and said, "Nothing else?" ”
"If you want something to eat, I can ask the chef if you can make it." The waitress said.
"That's right."
Xu Shuo nodded, understood, the level of scientific and technological civilization in the other world is not high, it is estimated that there is no refrigerator in the real sense, and the food cannot be stored for a long time, so the restaurant can't prepare too much and too much, which is easy to break, so the meals available to guests are limited.
Xu Shuo looked at Miao Zhen and asked, "How is it, is there anything you want to eat?" ”
Miao Zhen looked at the small blackboard, her face was a little red for some reason, and she only heard her ask in a low voice, "Is there a clear surface here?" It's the kind of ...... that doesn't put anything down."
"Sorry, guest, we don't sell noodles here." The waitress said.
Miao Zhen looked a little embarrassed, stared at the small blackboard for a while, then turned to Xu Shuo and said, "Brother Xu Shuo, it seems to be very expensive here." ”
"It's okay, the money is enough, just order whatever you want." Xu Shuo said.
Miao Zhen looked at the blackboard again, stared at it for a while, and then said embarrassedly: "That ......"
