358 Procurement 2
After closing the curtains, the bald old man of the House of Shadows branch returned to his chaise longue and sat there in deep thought.
But after a moment, the bald old man, whose expression became firm, immediately stroked the ring on his finger, and soon an oval mirror with a mysterious spell appeared in front of him.
But just as the bald old man was about to start leaving a message, a man appeared from the corner of the stairs. "Ask if there is a shop in the market that sells plant seeds?"
The bald old man who was facing the magic ghost mirror immediately had a shocked expression on his face, and the magic ghost surface that had lost his control also dissipated in mid-air.
Raymond, who saw the bald old man's performance in his eyes, couldn't help but sink his face, and then Raymond, who had a strange smile, stepped on the hardwood staircase of the staircase step by step, and finally stood in front of the bald old man.
With his hands propped on the table, Raymond, who leaned his body towards the bald old man, slowly opened his mouth. "Can you bear the charge of framing a first-level wizard?"
There was a slight spasm on his cheeks, but the balding old man immediately squeezed out a stiff smile. "Dear lord, I will immediately arrange for the young man downstairs to show you the way. β
"Good, good!" Raymond, who raised his right hand on the table, gave a thumbs up to the bald old man. "Hopefully, at the end of your five-year term, I will be able to see you in the central region. β
The bald old man who shivered involuntarily and turned pale immediately pulled the rope beside him, and with the crisp bell ringing, soon the young man downstairs rushed up from downstairs and quickly stood in front of him.
His face regained a little blood, and the bald old man immediately gave an order to the young man. "Take this respectable lord to Lao Mu's shop, and remember to tell Lao Mu that this is our valued customer in our shop. Let him bring out the best things!"
Raymond, who did not speak again, only glanced at him meaningfully, and left the room under the guidance of the young man, but the bald old man only brought the teacup on the table to his lips with his trembling arms after Raymond was gone.
"Calm down, calm down!" muttered the bald old man, as if to comfort himself. "Everything is normal today, everything is normal!"
After finishing speaking, his face finally began to return to his original ruddy bald old man, and then he brought the teacup to his mouth and began to drink.
But a roar of great pain immediately echoed through the room. "Burn me......"
Raymond who had just left the door of the House of Shadows under the guidance of the young man. But he keenly heard this scream, and Raymond, who stopped, immediately asked the young man. "What's going on?"
"Dear lord, this ......" The young man with an apologetic look on his face scratched his head and looked a little embarrassed. "It seems that I just added boiling water to his cup before, and I wonder if he drank it without paying attention......"
Raymond was stunned. His thoughts froze instantly, but Raymond, who reacted quickly, let out a hearty laugh. But Raymond didn't make any further comments. directly urged the young man to lead the way quickly.
There was always trepidation and uneasiness on his face, but this clear-eyed young man was extremely competent.
Raymond, who led Raymond through the path behind the shop in the market, but did not take a detour, appeared in front of a store hidden in the corner of the market ten minutes later.
In the ordinary bluestone hut, there is an original red door plaque hanging on the gate where there have been many traces of insect moth. The large characters that have mostly peeled off the gold paint show that this is the shop that the bald old man called "old wood".
"Uncle Wood, Uncle Wood!" walked up and pushed the half-hidden door open, with the creak of the unlubricated shaft. The young man walked in and yelled. "I've brought you an honorable guest, come out and greet you!"
Raymond, who had just walked in with little Stasi's little hand, stumbled when he heard the sound, especially when he saw the sturdy man who came out of the shop inside, Raymond's face became even more exciting.
A stout man over two meters tall and wearing only a pair of shorts, his knotted muscles shone with a metallic sheen, and his face was full of beard that made his face a little hideous and terrifying.
And little Stasi, who immediately became afraid, immediately hid behind Raymond and screamed.
The shopkeeper, who was obviously drinking and taking a nap, was awakened by the screams of little Stassy, his confused eyes blinking as hard as he could, and after a shy expression appeared on his face, he came to his senses and rushed back to the room inside.
"Dear lord, this is the shop that can provide the most variety of plant seeds in the entire city of LimΓ³n," the young man, who was not frightened by the stout man, and was not disturbed by the screams of little Stasi, still respectfully introduced Raymond. "Because this shop is closed in the afternoon, Uncle Wood may be a little rude, please forgive me. β
The young man who spoke respectfully and explained everything clearly made Raymond surprised, and after seeing that the young man was about to leave after the introduction, Raymond directly threw a gold coin over. "Yes, do a good job and you'll have a great future. β
"Thank you for your compliment, and thank you for your tip. There was surprise in his eyes, but the young man bowed and saluted before taking his leave. "The store can't do without people, and the villain goes back first. β
Looking at the little guy who disappeared backwards at the door, Raymond, who nodded secretly, couldn't help but appreciate it very much, but soon the sturdy man in a pair of shorts just now had already dressed up and walked out of it.
"Dear lord, I was really rude just now. With a smile on his face, the embarrassed shopkeeper began to introduce. "I'm Big Wood, what kind of plant seeds do you need?"
"Big wood?" Thinking of the "old wood" plaque hanging on the door, Raymond couldn't help but be a little curious. "Then who is the old wood in your family?"
The big wood that scratched his head with a smile was extremely strong, but his personality was very shy.
Originally, this shop was a centuries-old shop, but according to the rules of the time, all the shopkeepers had to be called "Big Wood", and the name of the store eventually became a trade name, and it was only the practice of opening the store in the morning...... (To be continued.) )
