Ryan and Andrew continued to remain invisible, stepping from under the tree into the slightly dilapidated tavern. The moment they entered the tavern, Ryan immediately understood what Andrew had just said and what he meant by "beautiful".

The young man with short blond curly hair and brown eyes had a pure and gentle gaze, and was dressed in a white robe inlaid with gold thread, and his face and sleeves were fair-skinned.

The boy was not too tall, he had no shoes on his feet, and he stepped barefoot on the ground that was not too flat. Although he lacks a pair of pure white wings on his back and does not have a golden circle of light on his head, compared to Tusentoski, who is a feather clan, and the two brothers Ajer, the young man feels more like a pure angel descending to the world.

The soul favored by death was standing at the counter at this time, his eyes were looking at something seriously, and beside him was a goblin, communicating with a middle-aged woman, and there were two piles of secret naan cakes of different sizes on the counter.

The secret naan cake is thick and abundant, and is the staple food of the Lebaye people.

A variety of wild vegetables are added to the small naan cake, and meat is also added to the large naan cake, and the edge of the naan cake is slightly burnt, and the smell is very fragrant, and it looks good.

Upon entering the tavern, a conversation between the goblins and the women could be heard, and there were many smaller goblins watching, and there was not a single human eater in the tavern, Ryan called out to Andrew in a low voice, and the two of them walked over together.

The young man's eyebrows raised slightly, and he saw that something was wrong with the situation, so Ryan asked in his mind: "Tong, has something happened?" ”

The system immediately replied in his mind, "The middle-aged woman is the proprietress of the tavern, and the one who is talking to her is the leader of this team of goblin merchants, the cunning goblin who wants to exchange the low price for goods far more than it is worth. ”

Ryan understood in seconds.

In front of the counter, the goblin merchant, who was no taller than the counter, stood on the bench, smiling sincerely and amazed.

The goblin leader was extremely hypocritical and praised the tavern hostess, "Oh, the goblin king is above...... Madame, your naan is simply delicious, and the portion is generous, it is simply the most delicious naan I have ever tasted in Lebaye. ”

The goblin leader made a look of intoxication as he spoke: "It's a pity that I'm too busy, otherwise I would have to try your other food here." ”

"Where, you're exaggerating. Mr. Goblin, this is the naan you ordered, and please count the quantity carefully, so that I don't get too busy and give it too little. ”

Although the appearance of the goblin is not good-looking, and it does not conform to the aesthetics of humans, it has a large number of transactions at a time, and the proprietress is also overjoyed by it, and gradually relaxes her vigilance against the goblin.

"No need to count, I'm still in a hurry, I believe that you who are kind and beautiful will not deceive an honest goblin merchant like me, and the next time I come to Lebaye, I will definitely continue to visit your tavern and taste every delicacies."

The goblin took out a leaf bag from the space ring, generously poured out a bunch of coins of different colors and put them on the table, looked up and said to the tavern hostess: "I have already calculated when you prepared the naan, this is the total price of the naan cake I just told you, I am in a hurry now, our ship is about to leave." ”

As soon as it said this, its fellow goblins got up and made a gesture of being in a hurry to leave, shouting so loudly that the goblin could not think normally, and at the same time helping the goblin leader in the chair to quickly load the naan into the leaf bag.

"Huh-"

Before the proprietress could count the price, she was panicked by the goblin's teasing, and she didn't know whether to stop it first or count the money first.

The blonde teenager inherited the wisdom his father received from the god of business and was sensitive to money and data.

The boy could get a rough idea of how many coins there were after a few glances, and he stretched out his hand to try to stop the goblin, his brows furrowed, and at the same time he said to the goblin seriously and good-naturedly, "Mr. Goblin, your account is wrong.

A small naan cake costs 5 silver coins, and a large naan cake costs 15 silver coins, and you buy a total of 42 small naan cakes and 68 large naan cakes, and the amount you should pay is 210 silver coins plus 1020 silver coins, for a total of 1230 silver coins.

But the total value of these coins you have taken out at the moment, roughly speaking, should only be around 910, less than 1,000 silver coins, far less than the amount you should pay. If you leave directly like this, Aunt Lina won't even be able to earn her capital back, and she will lose money. ”

The goblins couldn't see the boy with the soul body, and the movements were savagely interspersed back and forth from his body, and none of the goblins heard what he was saying, not even Lina.

Andrew heard the boy's voice, stopped beside Ryan by perception, and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Michelle, do you need me to stop them?" ”

To tell the truth, Andrew doesn't have a high opinion of goblins, especially goblins who like to lie and cheat money.

The goblins, who were mostly identical in appearance, expertly packed the naan bread and tried to leave the tavern.

Ryan greeted Andrew and asked in his head and system, "Commander, how many of these coins are there?" ”

Forgiven for not being particularly sensitive to money, Ryan couldn't count how much money was on the table in a few seconds, not even a rough one.

Gold, silver and copper are mixed together with a bunch of coins of different colors, and it feels like a headache to count.

Hearing Ryan's inquiry, the system replied in seconds: "The goblins took out a total of 7 gold coins, 170 silver coins, and 5,500 copper coins.

According to the equivalent exchange between currencies, 1 gold coin is equal to 100 silver coins, and 100 copper coins is equal to 1 silver coin, so the goblin took out a total of 925 silver coins, which is 305 silver coins less than the 1230 silver coins it should have paid. ”

Ryan suddenly exclaimed slightly, "925 and 910, the difference is only 15 silver coins, this mind is too easy to use." ”

The point is that he hasn't counted it yet.

Ryan: "How did he do it?" ”

System: "In addition to experiencing life and death, he can be said to have grown up playing with money since he was a child, and can roughly judge the total price based on the height and thickness of the coins piled up. ”

"It's dead."

Ryan: "A smart and beautiful person like this should settle in my Oran." ”

Not to mention that there is also a Guardian of the Grim Reaper, wonderful.

"Dear host."

Suddenly, the system said in Ryan's head, "I have to remind you of something. ”

Ryan: "You say. ”

System: "The gold coins that these goblins take out are fake, and they are actually special stones. ”

Ryan: "! ”

This group of liars.

Just as the goblins sealed the leaf bag and were about to put it in the space ring and leave, Andrew, dressed in a black robe and pulling down his hood to block his face, lifted his invisibility and drew his giant sword to stop all the goblins.

The goblin who took out the gold coin was the leader of this group of goblins, and when it saw the giant sword in Andrew's hand, it looked a little frightened, and asked loudly in the continental lingua franca: "What are you doing?" We're legitimate merchants, and you're going to be caught by Lebaye's guards. ”

At the same time, his eyes hinted at his companions, and motioned for them to run out of the tavern and call for help.

The moment Andrew appeared, the blonde boy's originally frustrated eyes suddenly brightened again, and he said loudly: "Sir, these goblins are deceiving people, please stop them." ”

The proprietress who was counting the money also raised her head, looked at Andrew in confusion and fear, and her voice trembled slightly, and asked, "This gentleman, what are you going to do to the goblins?" If they don't make a mistake, you're breaking the law of Leybaye and you're going to be arrested. ”

She didn't know what Andrew was going to do, but she didn't dare not stop it, and according to Rybaye's law, if a normal alien merchant had an accident in her shop, she herself would be partially responsible.

What's more, Andrew took out his weapon without saying anything, looking like he would stab a sword at any time.

Before Andrew could defend himself, Ryan lifted his invisibility.

Although there were archers in this group of goblins, none of them were Andrew's opponents for a round.

Dressed in black robes, Ryan walked slowly to Andrew's side with an elegant posture, took out a beautiful staff from the spatial ring, restrained the goblins' actions with magic, and said in a calm tone to Aunt Lina, the tavern hostess, that is, the blonde boy: "Ma'am, my guards are helping you reduce your losses, these bad-hearted goblins are liars, and they have deceived your kindness." ”

The blonde teenager clenched his fists and chimed in, "Yes, that's right! ”

But no one paid any attention to him.

While Andrew and Ryan could see and hear what he was saying, it wasn't the right time to talk.

The goblin couldn't move, and tried to defend himself in a panic, "We're not liars, you're talking nonsense, you're liars!" Don't hurry up and release us, or I'll have to tell the convoys to arrest you!" ”

"Arrest us?"

Hearing this, Ryan chuckled, gently rubbed the tip of the staff with his fingertips, and lowered his voice: "Then do you know that I was separated from Orn, do you think that when you call the escort, the person who will be captured is me or you goblins?" ”

The expressions on the faces of the goblins suddenly became ugly.

Every one of Rybaye's people knew about Prince Orn, and with his staff in his hand, he could tell that Ryan was human and a high-ranking magician.

Lina was already wary of the goblins, but she was just dazed by words and cooperation, at this time, hearing Ryan say this, combined with the sudden changes of the goblins, she immediately became vigilant, and asked in awe and humility: "Dear Mr. Magician, can you explain in detail?" ”

Lina and her husband run the tavern together, with Lina in charge of the front desk and her husband in charge of the back kitchen. In addition to daily expenses and other expenses, she also has two children, one is a trainee warrior and the other is a trainee mage, both of whom are studying in the academy, and there are many places to use money.

"Originally, this matter had nothing to do with me, but when I saw my friend's people being deceived, I seemed to be a little unable to sit idly by."

Ryan didn't lower his tone, and whispered, "When the guards and I passed by, we suddenly heard someone mention the liar, so we came in stealthily and took a look, and just happened to see a low-level lie scam. ”

Hearing this, the blond-haired young man immediately turned his head to look at Ryan, and asked with joy and urgency in his eyes, "Mr. Magician, can you see me?" ”

Ryan nodded slightly, did not respond to the boy, and continued to say to Lina: "I heard a young man's voice, he said that the small naan cake costs 5 silver coins each, and the large naan cake costs 15 silver coins, and this goblin liar has bought a total of 42 small naan cakes and 68 large naan cakes, and should pay a total of 1230 silver coins.

However, the goblin only took out 7 gold coins, 170 silver coins, and 5,500 copper coins. ”

The perceptive boy quickly calculated the result and raised his hand high, "Yes, sir, the goblins only have a total of 925 silver coins, and there are still 305 silver coins missing!" ”

The goblins all looked gloomy, and they were still arguing in vain voices, "You miscalculated, our gold coins will never be wrong!" ”

Lina, who couldn't see the young man, only thought that Ryan was saying excuses, and nervously and eagerly quickly counted the gold, silver and copper coins separately.

"Do you need me to call Leybaye's escort?"

Ryan's voice was cold, "And those seven gold coins of yours are made of stone, don't tell me you don't know what the consequences will be if a merchant with counterfeit money is discovered." ”

Lina immediately picked up a gold coin, opened her mouth and bit it heavily with her teeth, and then took a knife and scraped it along the tooth marks, and the gold coin was really a stone covered in gold dust.

"You liars, I don't know how many people have been deceived by you!"

Lina was so angry that she almost cried, and left the counter and shouted, "I'm going to find the guards to get you guys!" ”

Seeing that the matter of using counterfeit money was exposed, the goblin led by him calmed down, and said with a smile on his face: "Oh, the king of goblins is above, Madame, please don't worry, this should be a misunderstanding!" ”

If you are caught using counterfeit money on the spot, you will not only lose money, but you will also be removed from the merchant alliance and have your merchant status revoked, as well as a number of penalties.

After saying that, it continued to look at Lina, suppressing its hatred for Ryan, and the pain in his heart was sincere, "I'm sorry madam, I was in a hurry and accidentally took the wrong coin, and those money will be used as a gift for you, in addition, I am willing to compensate with double the amount of naan, and please forgive me for the mistake I made in a hurry." ”

At the same time as he said this, the goblins hated it in their hearts, if it weren't for this magician, they would have run away long ago.

Lina stopped in place and looked sideways at Ryan, obviously tempted.

It's human nature, Ryan can understand, but the blonde boy is silent.

Ryan released the lead goblin's confinement, looked at the goblin coldly and said, "Okay, you take the money out first." ”

At the same time, he said to the system in his mind: "Tong, can you help me record the process of this group of goblins cheating, hide me, Andrew and the boy, and send the goblins to Orne?" ”

"Absolutely."

System: "I'll give you a discount, thanks to 3 gold coins." ”

Ryan: "Okay. ”

Ryan: "It's not the first time they've deceived, have they? ”

The gang commits crimes, and it looks quite skilled.

System: "They often go to different cities and use various means to find honest people to cheat money, which leads to many people going into debt. ”

"Is the money still there?"

"Still, they enjoy cheating, and they make money out of it."

Ryan's eyes drooped slightly, "Tong, then you can help me make a form, and I will hand it over to Orn later." ”

System: "As you wish." ”

Ryan: "This kind of liar deserves to be punished. ”
