Zhang Jiu: Buying

I didn't say anything all night, and I actually fell asleep. There are two beds in the double room, so there will be no embarrassing situations.

Originally, Chun thought that Marshall would ask himself why he ignored her, or asked his name, but strangely, the other party didn't mean to ask at all.

Marshall just asked him to help carry the luggage, said to take a shower and sleep, and didn't mention anything else......

The next morning, Marshall and Chun got up together, preliminarily packed up, and after breakfast, still without saying anything all the way.

The current situation is that Marshall is sitting in front of William, and Chun is standing behind Marshall's chair, motionless.

William's eyebrows were furrowed, the corners of his mouth were smiling, and he held a piece of parchment full of words in his left hand and a cloth bag with intricate patterns in his right hand.

"How did you sleep last night?" William crossed his legs and asked slowly, "Did you sleep with him in your arms?" I remember that when you were in the car, you slept very soundly~"

He pointed to Haru behind him and playfully looked at Marshall, who was flushed.

"No, not yet, but I'll fight for it." Marshall quickly reassured himself and responded with a smile.

The corners of Chun's mouth behind Marshall twitched slightly, and his face couldn't help but gradually darken.

Not yet...... Will fight for? Will you sneak into my bed in the middle of the night......

The hair on Haru's body couldn't help but explode slightly, and his eyes were awkwardly aimed into the distance.

"Hahahaha! Not bad! William laughed, "Alright, to get down to business, I'm sure you're looking forward to getting your sword, aren't you?" ”

Marshall nodded and did not speak.

"Before you can do that, though, you have to complete a mission." William raised his hands and shoved two things into Marshall's hands without saying a word, "Hmm..... That's right, it's to buy supplies, isn't it simple? You can happily use the rest of the money to enjoy a lunch and be back here before two o'clock in the afternoon. After that, I'll give you the saber, and after a short rest, we'll start our daily training. ”

"Okay." Marshall looked at the parchment in his hand, and said it succinctly.

She held the bag in her hand above her head and motioned for Chun to take it, and the silly-looking wolf orc was stunned and hurriedly took it.

Water..... Ale...... Orange juice......

Bread...... Butter...... Honey...... Meat......

It's all in buckets.

On the reverse side of the parchment is a map of Citrine Town, which details all the place names.

Marshall's brow furrowed as he looked back.

"Don't worry, this bag can hold everything you've purchased." William waved his hand, his eyes easily wandering between the two in front of him, "Alright, alright!" Go, remember to come back~ Anyway, fate is really mysterious, isn't it? ”

Before leaving, William's voice reappeared: "Remember, don't go to the casino, don't go to those dangerous places, and you, bring your matching knife." If you still have any doubts, I have written a reminder below, don't come back halfway easily, you know? ”

Casino...... There is also a casino......

"Well, got it......" Marshall replied softly, stepping out of the hotel door with Haru behind him.

Citrine Town during the day looks like two towns at night, if the night represents quiet, then the day is extremely lively.

Speculators, traders, and crystal buyers of all kinds flock to this place and leave quickly, forming a perfect balance between people coming and going.

Marshall's face couldn't help but smile a little, and with such a strong bodyguard behind him, the sense of security must be full.

And those surprised and slightly disdainful gazes were glare back one by one by Marshall.

Orcs are not as ugly as others say, nor are they as savage as most people think. Anyway, the well-equipped Chun behind him is absolutely heroic, look at the big knife with a fierce light flashing behind him!

"Why did you choose me?" The first sentence between the two actually began with this.

Marshall's pace couldn't help but jump a little: "I like it, for good reason, right?" ”

"......" Chun was choked and speechless.

Marshall laughed and continued to say to himself, "I want to think about it...... Because, you're handsome, well, that's right. ”

What kind of reason is that......

While talking to Chun, Marshall opened the bag of money that William had given him, and found that there were more than a dozen gold coins neatly arranged inside.

Think about it...... One gold coin can be exchanged for twenty-five silver coins, or two thousand five hundred copper coins.

According to the map marked, if a bucket of water is counted as 30 copper, wine is 80 copper......

After doing the math, Marshall found that there seemed to be a lot of surplus.

Chun secretly glanced at the small bag in Marshall's hand and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

This money seems really a lot...... And why is the food sold around so fragrant!

Meat, meat...... It's all meat! Delicious meat ...... When they were still in the tribe, meat was extremely scarce, and even if they could supplement their energy with a vegetarian diet, meat was always their favorite food, and there was no one.

Unfortunately, the place they were passing through was a street selling meat and charcuterie, and Haru had to tuck his tail between his legs and carefully move from smell to smell.

"By the way, where did you live before you came to the Orc Special Zone?" Marshall said as he looked at the map and led the way.

"I'm from the tribe." Spring Road.

"Tribes? Do you have many tribes? Various ethnicities living together? ”

"No, we generally live together with the same race and have specific totemic beliefs."

"Totemic beliefs?" Marshall looked back at Haru, who was swallowing his saliva, with interest, and continued, "Then what kind of god do you believe in?" ”

Chun's tone couldn't help but become a little more solemn: "Our ancestors, the wolf clan. It represents strength, agility, and wisdom. ”

"So, will there be communication between the different races?"

"It's usually more conflict." Haru said honestly.

"So, how does it feel to be here? Compared to the original tribal life? ”

Chun paused, and the experience of each scene was repeated in his heart, and his anger couldn't help but rise to three points, so he had no choice but to suppress it: "The environment here is much better than Rubis, at least you can eat enough." ”

"Of course! If you think it's good, you can bring people of the same race here to live together, like family......"

This really poked at the sore spot of spring. The conversation box was closed.

Marshall only thought that the other party's brain was convulsive, rolled his eyes, and didn't want to pay more attention to him.

Since then, a rumor has quickly spread in Citrine Town: a girl with an orc attendant is shopping for supplies on the street, the point is, the girl seems to have a ridiculously large amount of money, and this orc has too much strength to use up.

The purchase of liquor supplies went smoothly, Marshall stretched the bag open, and Haru's job was to stuff barrels of wine into bottomless rune bags, and the seller was very honest, and his bid was even less than the retail price.

In fact, it is very rare to see orcs in the [Land of Desire] Sisig, and most people even see this half-human, half-beast creature for the first time, and they have more curiosity than hostility towards orcs.

For the third time, Marshall had seen someone ask him if he could transfer the servant to the other party, and she replied no.

"He's very unique, and I'm very close to him." Marshall's expression was serious, as if he was talking about some national event.

But this tone was undoubtedly a refusal without a reason, and it was not an option to mess around, and those people had to ask where they could hire such powerful orcs.

Marshall was happy to help, and said that all he needed to do was find an orc who was willing to sign a contract and go to the local orc management department to make a contract.

Most of the people who come to the Land of Desire are speculators and caravans, and in their eyes, things that can create greater benefits for themselves are truly lovely, and as for the appearance of orcs, they have forgotten about them.

When Haru heard Marshall's words, he was muttering in his heart. This kind of person who killed his own brother is absolutely not credible.

The last thing Marshall needed to buy was a big thing, a staple food. It includes a variety of breads, meals, and whole grains like soybeans.

She quickly found her way, and her sore legs became brisk after walking for a long time, and Haru behind him followed silently with a bag that didn't look big.

Marshall came to a quieter grain store, which had few customers and was very suitable for buying in large quantities.

She soon came to the counter, a smile gradually appeared on her face, and she looked at the chubby shopkeeper on the counter and said hello.

Seeing the bread of [eighty copper/fifty kilograms] printed on the price card, Marshall's heart relaxed slightly.

"Welcome, with the girl who thinks she is a unique attendant."

"Haha, I'm here to buy all kinds of staple foods." Marshall gets straight to the point, she's getting a little tired now, "How much you want." Ask about the prices of various staple foods. ”

"The price of bread is one silver and ten coppers per fifty kilograms." The owner of the shop said with a smile, and his tone was very kind.

"What......" Marshall hurriedly looked at the price card behind the boss, "It's obviously ......"

How can it be! The wooden sign that was hung up so well just now disappeared without a trace!

Marshall hurriedly turned his head and looked at Haru behind him, wanting to ask the wolf orc if he had seen anything.

only to find that the other party's eyes seemed to be discrete. That is, he is in a daze......

Marshall was so angry that he wanted to kick him.

The nearest grain store to the two was in the southeast of Citrine Town, and their current location was in the southwest of Citrine Town.

In this small town, there are only two shops, which monopolize all the food supply.

In other words, if you lie to a six or seven-year-old girl, won't your conscience hurt?

Marshall's original smile disappeared suddenly, and there was a bit of fierceness in his eyes.

And the other party's eyes were full of banter and disdain, and it seemed that he wanted to eat himself.

As the current daughter of Yaris, Marshall has done her homework on negotiation skills.

Marshall gently pulled back the chair in front of the counter, sat down gracefully, and said loudly in surprise, "This is too expensive!" ”

Her voice was so loud that Harudu shuddered with fright, not to mention the others who were shopping for supplies in the store.

The other customers threw their eyes one after another, and the end of this gaze was precisely between the owner of the shop and the little girl.

"Hmm......" Haru looked around in confusion, flicked his tail behind him, and muttered sluggishly, "What, what's wrong?" ”

"It's okay, I just think the price seems a little too expensive." Marshall clapped his hands happily, smiled exaggeratedly, and watched the banter in the eyes of the shopkeeper in front of him disappear little by little, "So, I want to ask, what is the real price of the staple food in this store?" ”

She tilted her head, happily took Chun's big hand, lifted Erlang's legs, and began to play with his soft meat pads despite Haru's obstruction.

"One...... One ......"

"Fifty copper coins, isn't it?" Marshall said loudly, making sure that the eyes of those around him were focused on himself and his boss.

"No...... No! At least seventy ......"

"Deal! Charge as much as you want! Marshall hurriedly grabbed the conversation.

It's a very simple method of public negotiation, very rudimentary.

I thought that the other party would be able to play a few more rounds with me, but I didn't expect it to collapse now...... Boring.

Marshall gently slid his fingertips over the soft pad, stood up suddenly, and ordered behind him with a smile: "Okay, put as much as you wantβ€”...... it."

Marshall noticed that Chun's expression seemed a little loveless, and he seemed to have been touching his hand.

Well...... Leave it alone.

In other words, did you act too strong just now?
