Chapter 8 Call Me Boss From Now On
As a bounty huntress known as the "Rose of Rhode Island", Christine has only two wishes in life - first, to earn a large sum of money to feed her thirteen lovely and noisy sisters, and second, to have the opportunity to return to her hometown and smash the despicable uncle who embezzled the family property into pickle cakes with a large iron anchor.
Unfortunately, so far there has been no sign of either wish being fulfilled - the former because of the current economic downturn, which often leads to her loss of job even as a brave warrior, and the latter because of ...... Well, that despicable and shameless uncle, who is said to be the big man of that island now, and is about to succeed in running for parliament.
So, Christine's life has always been difficult, in order to support her family, she worked as a bounty hunter, a trader, a cook, a part-time pirate, and even sang in a bar for two months until she smashed a chair on the head of the bastard baron, but even so, she still lived a full and hungry life, and sometimes even so poor that she didn't even have a drink from the northwest wind.
What's worse is that just half a year ago, some strange curse hidden in her body suddenly attacked, and when the search for mages was fruitless, she could only forcibly suppress the curse and continue to drag her body that would collapse at any time to work hard, just to earn enough living expenses for her thirteen sisters before her life came to an end.
It was obviously an adventure, so during this pursuit of pirates, she finally collapsed helplessly, and even more unfortunate than this, when she suddenly woke up in a cold sweat, she found herself lying in the tribal tent of dark creatures, surrounded by a large group of vicious minotaurs, plus a young man with black hair and black eyes......
"What did you do to me?" Subconsciously clutching her chest, Christine picked up a wooden stick, and she swore that if any minotaur dared to stretch out his hooves, she would unceremoniously knock them down and directly knock them into beef patties.
"Take it easy, take it easy, we didn't do anything. With a steaming cup of coffee, the dark-haired man with his back to her slowly turned his head, smiling and revealing his eight white teeth, "Actually, I think you should thank us, such as taking out a few hundred gold coins, or making a personal promise or something." ”
This reminded Christine, who rubbed her temples in distress and finally remembered what had happened before she fell unconscious: "Well, let me think about it, your name seems to be Lin...... Lin ......"
"Lin Taiping, unmarried. Lin Taiping replied seriously, deliberately adding the point that he was unmarried.
"Lin Taiping?" Christine had never heard such a strange name, and repeated it a few times in confusion, but soon, she realized that she should thank her first, "That, thank you for your help, it's a pity that I have nothing to repay now, if you don't mind, wait until I earn the bounty next time......"
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Lin Taiping waved his hand indifferently, but asked tentatively, "But, Miss Christine, it seems that you are short of money?"
Who said it wasn't? Christine was still a little nervous, but when she heard about the money, she was immediately touched to a sad place, and couldn't help but wrench her hands and count it: "There is a lot of shortage, there is a lot of shortage, Alice wants to buy milk powder, Vivien's diapers are still on credit, Nancy's coat is too small, Jane's school fees are three months in arrears, and Lena's doll is ......"
Very good and powerful, if you are not interrupted, it is estimated that this beautiful lady can talk for two hours, a large group of minotaurs can't help but look at each other, who said that we are miserable, compared with this beautiful royal sister, the minotaur tribe is simply a rich family.
In fact, Lin Taiping was already in a cold sweat when he heard it, and seeing that Christine was about to talk about rent and water bills, he finally couldn't help but raise his hand to interrupt: "Stop, Miss Christine, stop driving first, I actually just want to ask, are you interested in working for me?"
"Huh, working for you?" this direct question made Christine's eyes widen in surprise, and she turned her head to look around a little stupidly, but after a few seconds of silence, when she saw the group of vicious minotaurs, she suddenly couldn't help but shudder.
A horde of brutal and cruel creatures of darkness, an island shrouded in evil black mist, and a mysterious man of unknown origin...... My God, did I inadvertently break into the demon's stronghold and sell my body and soul?
"Ahem, you're thinking too much. Lin Taiping sighed speechlessly, as long as he looked at that expression, he knew where this royal sister had thought, "Let's be straight, I plan to hire you as a captain and guide to take us to Rhode Island to do business." ”
Before this sentence was finished, the first person who was surprised was Tulu next to him: "Lin, what did you just say, we are going to do business?"
It's no wonder that the Minotaurs are so surprised, considering that dark creatures have always lived by robbery, and have never heard of laying down their arms to do business, and they are still doing business with those vile, shameless, and untrustworthy humans.
In fact, Christine thought the same thing, especially when she noticed the poverty of the tribe, and bit her lip with a confused face: "This, Mr. Lin, can I ask, what are you going to sell in Rhode Island?"
"That's my business. Lin Taiping smiled and took out a magic contract from his arms, which was a trophy from the pirate ship, "As for Miss Christine, you just need to think seriously about whether you want to sign this contract." ”
This is really a difficult choice, Christine looked at the magic contract placed in front of her, and suddenly wondered if if the other party would suddenly grow two horns after signing it, and then laughed and said I took your soul.
However, before she had time to shake her head, Lin Taiping added casually: "By the way, I forgot to say that the monthly salary is three hundred gold coins." ”
Three hundred gold coins? Christine suddenly gasped, her dark blue eyes were shining with golden light, in fact, in an instant, she immediately converted all her income into milk powder diapers, and then came up with a terrifying figure.
The problem is, as appealing as it sounds, it's a little too dangerous to work for a group of dark creatures, especially with this smiling guy who looks like he has a demon's tail wagging behind him from any angle.
"Five hundred gold coins!" she was still hesitating here, but Lin Taiping had already directly raised the offer, "Plus six percent of the trade commission, there will be a large bonus at the end of the year, and...... Hey, hey, I'm not done yet!"
A few seconds ago, Christine was still telling herself to be cautious, and after a few seconds, her hand betrayed her body, and she couldn't wait to grab the quill: "Needless to say, where am I going to sign?"
That's right, Lin Taiping looked at her very happily, and by the way, he didn't forget to guide how to sign the contract: "Here, here, and here, remember to press your handprint after signing...... What?
In this way, a few minutes later, with the light of the magic contract flashing, this contract that was later known as the Blood and Tears Deed of Sale was reached, and then Lin Taiping was still very happy, holding Christine's hand and shaking it vigorously: "Very good, work hard, I will give you shares in the future." ”
I still think it's a little strange, but seeing that the other party didn't suddenly grow a one-horned tail or something, Christine finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, boss, as long as you pay your salary on time, it's no problem to ask me to go and fight the God of Light." ”
"Rest assured, I'm not the kind of guy who likes to be unpaid. Lin Taiping nodded with a smile, thought about it and said, "So, how about we start work immediately, Christine, will you repair the ship?"
Already said to be dizzy, Christine nodded in a daze, but she soon noticed that it was so dark outside that she couldn't see her fingers: "Yes, yes, but now it's dark, and I can't see clearly if I want to repair it." ”
"It's okay, you can start by chopping wood. Lin Taiping was very understanding, "By the way, there are dozens of free laborers outside, and after my warm and sincere conversation, they have decided to throw their blood to contribute their youth, and they have offered to pay for food out of their own pockets." ”
As if sensing something terrible about to happen, a large group of pirates tied up outside suddenly couldn't help but sneeze.
Tulu and a group of minotaurs were gloating when they heard this, but their good mood didn't last long, because immediately after, Lin Taiping continued: "Also, Tulu, you also have to work hard, within two days, you must learn navigation skills, master all kinds of skills in sailing, and wipe the deck carefully...... Meow, all of them will stand for me, and whoever dares to escape will be deducted from his salary. ”
So, at this moment, in Christine's eyes, she suddenly hallucinated, this adult did not grow a tail, but a dozen in one breath.
In fact, dozens of minotaurs already had this question, and in the strange silence, Tulu was very moved to wipe his tears, and finally couldn't help but tremble and asked: "Lin, can I ask, did your ancestor marry the Great Demon?"
