Chapter 13 Matchmaking
There was a look of appreciation in Freddy's eyes, this man was indeed a liar scoundrel, but the scoundrel was very upright, well-informed, and eloquent, and had some merit.
Javier said, "It's very simple, help me meet your uncle." ”
"That's it?"
"That's all. ”
"No problem. Ackerman nodded: "However, the reward is 20,000 gold coins." ”
"What?" At this time, Harlot, who had been eating with Bathter, raised his head suddenly: "I will ask for 20,000 gold coins to meet someone, and the other party is the god Dinissos?"
"Dinisus?" Ackerman raised an eyebrow, "Modina Continent?"
Veronica is generally believed to be the king of the gods, Tyron, a god who created heaven and earth in Veronica mythology, and is equivalent to Dinisus in the continent of Mortina. So when Harlot called Dinisus by his first name, Ackerman guessed where they came from.
Obviously, a good liar should have the sharpness, and he is no less lacking.
"That's not something you have to worry about. Javier said, "Deal." ”
Seeing that he had promised so happily, Ackerman grinned, as if regretting why he didn't take the opportunity to ask more.
He added: "However, I would like to state in advance that my uncle is already annoying with me, so the people I introduced to me are a little... That's why I want that much, but it also includes the dotting fee. Anyway, I can let you meet with him, but there's no guarantee of anything after that. ”
Javier smiled, "It's okay, as long as we can meet." 20,000 gold coins, not a single cent will be missing. ”
"Okay!" Ackerman stood up happily, "I'll go and try to arrange it." ”
Then he stretched out his hand to Javier: "Deposit, 5,000 gold coins." ”
"Don't get too much, you kid!" said Harlott, angrily.
Javier waved his hand at him and said to Ackerman, "No problem, I can give it to you, but you'd better not lie to me." ”
Ackerman assured repeatedly: "Of course, don't worry, I never..."
Before Ackerman could finish speaking, Raymond interrupted him, and he pointed at Baste and said, "Her name is Baster, and she is the best scout among the cat people and orcs. If you dare to deceive us, she will be able to find you and cut your throat wherever you are hiding. ”
"Wow, the little paste twists the nest (what?, did you call me?), young master?)"
At this time, Bathter, who was immersed in eating, heard Raymond call his name, and raised his head with round cheeks, and looked left and right with confused eyes.
"Meow silver pinched the fake thief? (Who do you want people to kill?, I promise he won't live!)"
Raymond, Ackerman: ......
"Ahem, in short, whether it's worth your life for 5,000 gold coins, you'd better think about it. Raymond coughed dryly, and finally threatened.
Of course, Tobaste's blessing, that doesn't sound so imposing anymore.
After Ackerman left, Freddie asked Javier, "Do you really believe that guy?"
Javier asked rhetorically, "What about you?"
"Hmph, I never trusted anyone. ”
"Liar, that guy is a complete liar, of course you can't believe it!" Harlott was still angry at Ackerman for earning 5,000 gold coins in a few words.
"Huh. Javier smiled: "It doesn't matter if this person is reliable or not, whether he is a liar or not. The important thing is whether he can bring me what I want. ”
"And even if you are fooled, it is only 5,000 gold coins. But if we do meet Gaspard's Secretary of the Interior, it will be of immeasurable help to us in the future. I'm a businessman, and I don't judge things with feelings, but with the risk-to-return ratio, and obviously this investment is definitely worth doing. ”
"Is that the same for us and for Headington?" asked Raymond suddenly.
Javier turned his head to look at him and nodded without hesitation: "Of course, we are businessmen, although we must follow the constraints of morality, but the most basic principle of doing business is that while you bring benefits to the other party, you must also reap the corresponding benefits." Unilateral giving, that's what philanthropists do. ”
"That's the most common mantra Mistress Reed, Mistress Raymond, you'll have to get used to our style. With that, Javier patted Raymond on the shoulder and got up to leave.
After taking two steps, he turned back again: "Also, in terms of the ratio of risk to return, we think you have great potential and deserve to make the biggest investment. Therefore, we will be able to cooperate happily in the future. ”
The next day, under Ackerman's arrangement, Javier arrived at the residence of Glaspard's current Minister of the Interior, Blaus, and Raymond and Bathter brought 10 soldiers with them to protect him.
"Mr. Miller, this is the man I'm talking about. Coming to the door, Ackerman lost his chic from last night, nodded and said to an old man who looked like a butler.
Glancing at Javier arrogantly, the old man named Miller said noncommittally: "Got it, let him wait first, and when the adults are free, I will inform you." ”
"Ah, how can this work. Ackerman hurriedly said, "Hasn't Uncle already agreed?" He knew very well that this kind of "waiting" had always been far away.
Miller snorted, "Your Excellency did agree to meet with him, but he didn't say when." Wait, I'm still in business, I'm out of company. ”
"Wait. Ackerman hurriedly grabbed him. He knew that if Miller was allowed to go, it would be a long way off.
"Please, please help me inform my uncle, I..."
As Ackerman pleaded, Javier walked over and held out his hand to Miller, "You're Mr. Miller, aren't you? ”
Miller gave him a disdainful look, but held out his hand anyway. Just as the two shook hands, Miller's expression moved slightly, as if he sensed something.
When the two hands parted, Miller glanced at the object in his palm, and his face changed instantly.
"I have admired His Excellency the Home Secretary for a long time, and I would love to see him. Please take the trouble and help me inform him. Javier said with a smile, and then handed over a piece of paper: "On it are some small profits I have prepared for His Excellency the Minister, please give them to him as well." ”
At this time, Miller's attitude has changed 180 degrees. He nodded repeatedly: "Of course, please wait." Then he hurried to the house.
Ackerman, of course, knew what Javier was doing, and he said greedily: "Instead of giving it to the dead old man, it would be better to give it to me, I could have said that he would have moved..."
To say that the efficiency of money is indeed amazing, after a moment, Miller walked out: "It is a pleasure to meet you, Lord Blaus. ”
Javier nodded, and headed into the house. Raymond was about to get used to his surname and go in together, but saw Miller with a straight face and said, "Just wait outside for the guards." ”
"Meow, what are you talking about!" Catwoman was furious when she saw him speak to Raymond like that.
"It's all right, Bath, we'll just wait here. Raymond grabbed Bath, turned and walked back to the door.
He knew that his current status was Javier's bodyguard, so he didn't care about Miller's words. For things that aren't worth thinking about, Raymond never bothered.
When Javier entered Blaus's mansion, the crowd waited outside the door. Baste was a man of inactivity, and it was not long before she became impatient, and after a while she either ran to the door to take a look, or jumped against the wall to look, which made the guards of the Blause very nervous.
"Meow, how long will it take for him to come out!" Two hours later, Catwoman, who had lost her patience completely, finally complained loudly.
"Be patient, it's still early. Raymond sat leisurely at the base of the wall in the doorway, with his sword crossed to his knees, and tapped lightly at a leisurely pace.
The longer Javier was in, the more fruitful his meeting with Blas became, and from that point he preferred to wait longer.
At this moment, everyone suddenly heard a small commotion from a shop on the opposite street, followed by a chaotic shouting and scolding.
Then, I saw a girl fall out of the store, and with a bang, another round bucket-like thing was thrown out.
Catwoman, who was worried about not being able to find something to do, immediately came to her senses, widened her eyes and pricked up her ears, waiting to see the excitement.
The girl was about 12 or 3 years old, with a snow-white complexion, a delicate face, big blue eyes like a clear blue sky, pure and bright, and a small nose dotted with a few small freckles, which looked extremely cute. Although her figure is not yet lined, she is quite well proportioned, with long legs and a thin waist, and she obviously has a great future in the future.
But at this time, she was a little sloppy. The girl wore blonde hair in braids at the back of her head, wore a dirty robe, and straddled her shoulders with a large satchel painted with an intricate magic circle painted on the surface.
At this moment, the girl got up, and without caring to pat the dust off her robe, she shouted at the store, "Do you know who my grandfather is? Who is my mother? I dare to say that the alchemy items I make are garbage!"
At this time, several men walked out of the shop, and one of them laughed and said, "I don't care who you are, little girl, if you want to learn what kind of alchemist someone else is, wait for the hair to grow under you." ”
The others immediately laughed.
The girl suddenly realized: "It turns out that you said you wanted to buy my things, but you just lied to me to play!"
The man laughed and said, "I'm bored, I'm just trying to tease you?"
The girl clenched her small fist and waved at a few people: "I'm going to be angry." ”
The man laughed to himself: "Hahaha, what can you do, come and bite me?"
"Ah Tu!"
Unexpectedly, as the girl screamed, the cylindrical thing on the ground suddenly made a strange sound, and then it stretched out two hands-like things from both sides, and stood up on the ground.
Only then did I see that there were facial features on this thing, with a nose, eyes, and mouth, but it was quite abstract. But to be sure, this thing has a positive face, and it's obviously not a simple bucket.
"Wow, what's this weird thing?"
"Electric them!" the girl gestured to several men.
I heard the strange thing make a dripping sound, and a blue magic crystal suddenly appeared in the right eye.
Immediately after, countless currents shot towards the men. With a burst of screams, the men who were still triumphant a moment ago all had their hair standing on end, and their whole bodies were scorched and lying on the ground, shaking and shaking.
"Phew, you brought it on yourself. The girl grimaced at the men and said, "Ah Tu, run." ”
With the girl's words, a set of wheels stretched out from under the strange thing, sliding and following the girl, and one person and one bucket ran away in a blink of an eye.
"It's... What's going on?"
It took a long time for Raymond and Baste to come back to their senses, looking at the unlucky eggs like roasted black pigs, the two looked at each other, and they only had the same idea in their hearts.
There's a lot of weird stuff going on in this place...
The fifth volume is over, and the rest of the story is even more exciting.
