Chapter 280: Another Year
"So what exactly am I going to do?"
This sentence obviously resonated with the other party, and Kayla, as one of the parties to the Old Town Tacoma incident, must have been curious about what happened that day!
Especially when it was close to the center of the city, it once caused the entire area to go into a frenzy...... Sean has seen that kind of situation with his own eyes, just staring in the same direction stupidly and talking nonsense, a little higher level may still be a little conscious, but the spirit is also as high as drunk, very excited.
What Kayla feels like, I guess only she knows.
"If it's too dangerous, I won't say anything. ”
"The danger depends on your curiosity, and you've been on a rescue mission in Old Tacoma, and it's impossible not to know about the strange things happening there...... You just need to help me find out those two things, don't try to steal them, you've seen the mysterious power of the Old Gods! Sean deliberately scared the other party.
Since becoming an earl, he has seen all kinds of people, and judging from Sean's impression of the female snitch in front of him, the other party should just be an ordinary mercenary, because her style of acting and eating habits are very similar to that of a mercenary.
It's just that I don't know why she later preferred to be a thief......
However, it doesn't matter what the identity of the other party is, as long as the two parties have interests, they can be called.
"That's it?"
"That's all. ”
Sounds simple.
"You're willing to pay ten times the price of a mercenary group for this kind of task?"
"The money I gave you is just for expenses that you may be away from home all year round, Edak is not the Basharan Empire, there are a lot of things you have to pay attention to. Sean said.
To put it bluntly, it's just an intelligence spy who pays the other party to stay abroad, as for whether she is willing to ......
Sean felt that a person who had been away all year round would not refuse such a good thing.
Kayla is different from anyone in Barnier's four-man team, she wants to be younger, and the mercenary four-person team is purely lazy, and she also likes the environment of Oro City after working for so long, and Kayla in front of her is alone.
This kind of young person dreams of traveling the world, and if she were given another sum of money, she would not suggest that work is travel!
Really......
Sean saw a succession of states of [Expectation!], [Fantasy!], and [Surprise!] above each other's heads.
This emotional change is a bit of a drama!
"So what do I need to pay attention to?"
"That's all for now...... I need you to find those two items and then pass on the news through our domesticated letter eagle, and I'll give you a hint later. Can it be done?"
looked at the female snitch in front of her and thought about it.
"Then I have to think about it. ”
"You'd better give me affirmation in these two days, or I'll let someone else take the blame. ”
"Wait...... Then I'll go. ”
As soon as he said this, the other party immediately changed his words.
"But I want to ask you, Earl Sean, how much money can I get?"
"It's a lot higher than what you stole two things in exchange for, right. I want to remind you that when you go over there, it's another country, and you'd better restrain your little hobbies, otherwise I won't be able to save you if you are caught by someone over there. Sean said.
"I'm not here to do it, unless I don't have money......
"No unless, it's important. If you can't do it, I'll replace it immediately. ”
Probably frightened by her momentum, Kayla quickly nodded in reassurance.
"Alright, I'll be careful over there. ”
"That's the best!"
Finally, the conversation was settled, and only then did he pick up the teacup from the table.
"I don't really like to drink alone at home, so let's use tea instead...... Happy working together!"
"Happy cooperation~"
Kayla also reciprocates in the same way.
"And when am I leaving?"
"Now that the trade route to the Edak region has been blocked, my soldiers are still clear, and it is estimated that it will not be possible to open it for a while. When the time comes, you will take the airship of Oro City to the country of Mersin in the south, and from there make a circle to the Aidak region...... I'll pay for it, but you'll have to learn how to use it in the next few days. Sean commanded.
After that, let Aslant take the other party to the garrison to report, train for a few days and then hit the road.
..................
After sending Kayla away, Aslant walked up to him curiously.
"My lord, who is this person?"
"Who do you think she is?" asked Sean.
After thinking about it, Aslant said with some caution......
"I see that she is separated from the mercenaries. ”
"I guess I'm more of a thief. ”
looked at the other party with a little [embarrassed!] smiled.
"She's a thief, and I met Frelia Igouil on my way to Rietis with them, and there were some skirmishes with them...... She was trying to trick her in and steal something today, but I gave her another option. ”
"Why do you want to stay, a snitch is used to it, even if you give her a job, she may still do her old job after a while. "As an Imperial soldier, Arslant certainly knows a lot about thieves.
"But she's gifted at observing and tracking targets, and I don't think she's going to want to be a snitch for the rest of her life. ”
It's reasonable to say that his nature is difficult to change, but he met Kayla in the time he was in Old Tacoma, and the other party was in a mercenary group, and when he finally solved the problem, he specially invited himself to participate in the mission.
This shows that the other party is not a person who is determined to be a snitch, if there is such an existence, even if the other party is talented, Sean will not hire her.
"Don't worry, if she just cheats money once and leaves, we'll catch her. ”
I didn't find any lying or related status in the conversation with the other party, which shows that Kayla is still willing to take the job.
Being able to travel around other countries at work is a good job for a lot of people......
Sean rubbed his head.
The problems left over from Tacoma City have finally been sent over, and the rest is the problem of the Northern War.
Watching the days pass, spring is coming, if the front line is still so deadlocked, spring is estimated to cause a new round of problems, for Oro City, this year's spring planting may have to be increased.
Walking into the hall outside the study, Sean carefully studied the locations on the sand table and the map...... Which place is better for reclamation?
It can not only replenish the food problem of Oro City, but also provide it to the front line when necessary.
At this time, Sean suddenly remembered the fruit tree sapling he had tried to plant when he was in Koga City...... Isn't it okay to use magic!!
