Gold is Justice

Rich raised his hands and slapped the counter table heavily!Although the voice was really not very loud, the appearance of him stepping on the stool and trying to lean over his body still made people laugh a little bit.Isn't it?Brad over there couldn't help laughing.

Viscount Rich suddenly turned his head away to stare at Brad: "Are you laughing at me? Did you just laugh at me?! Tell me!"

Airl hurriedly smoothed things over: "Why? Your Excellency, Viscount, you are really worrying too much. We have all received professional training, and we generally don't laugh. Hmm... So, what does your Swan Castle have to do with our mermaid song?"

The very tall and tall nobleman sat down again on his seat, and said angrily: "I was very happy when I bought Swan Castle, but when I asked about it later, other people told me that the castle It has been a long, long time since no one lived in it. There may be some monsters in the castle that has not been lived in for so long, and it needs to be cleaned up by professionals."

"It's true when I think about it carefully. I haven't lived in it for so long. Maybe there is something messy in the castle. It's good to send someone to deal with it. Therefore, I issued a mission notice to recruit adventurers to come to this castle to deal with it. I still entrusted the super famous Light of Heaven Guild! They were very open-minded, and directly asked me for five gold coins for the announcement task fee. Then within two days after I started the task, two of them didn’t look like they had grown all their hair yet. The young fighters came over and told me that they have accepted this mission. Hmph! The so-called light of heaven is at this level!"

Coco turned around and asked, "The light of heaven? What is that?"

Cream had a well-informed expression on his face: "That's a very famous guild. It seems to be ranked in the top [-] or top [-] in the country? There are guild branches in various places."

Airl said to the Lord Viscount: "So that's how it is. Although it is said that the task was posted on the Light of Heaven, the person who actually takes over the task is not necessarily an official member of the Light of Heaven. It may also be a temporary member who takes over the task." , and the light of heaven is only a part of the commission. Your Excellency, Viscount Rich, I think those two fighters should also belong to this type."

The viscount had a troublesome expression on his face: "I don't know. When I went to the guild to entrust, they told me a lot of precautions. It was too troublesome. I didn't have the heart to listen. Anyway, I just thought about entrusting them to work. That’s it? Forget it, in short, if those two soldiers came over and said they want to take over this task, then I will give them this task. But!”

Viscount Rich's forehead popped out again: "But! These two bastard fighters!"

"I agreed, give them five gold coins after completing this mission! One of those two guys used a sword and the other a gun. The gold coins were given to them. Fortunately, these two guys never came back again! I have been waiting for half a month! They just disappeared without a word, and they took my gold coins and completely evaporated from under my nose! "

Speaking of this, Airl finally remembered the two sword warriors and spear warriors he had seen before.Although he didn't have much interest in the spear warrior, the sword warrior was quite cautious.Now hearing that these two soldiers did not go back to report, Airl couldn't help feeling tense.

Shouldn't...

Airl shook his head secretly, kept his expression calm and said: "I understand, Your Excellency, Viscount Rich, the two soldiers you mentioned did come to register with me. At that time, they asked me Regarding the situation of Swan Castle, I also told everything I know."

Viscount Rich suddenly exclaimed excitedly as if he had found a pain point: "Right, right! I'm right! I'm right! You really know those two liars!"

Arrow shook his head, his expression turning serious.He turned his head and glanced at his guild members, then turned to the Viscount and said, "Although under normal circumstances we pay the reward after completing the task, since Viscount Rich is so generous, I can't say anything. To be honest, I I only met those two fighters once, so I can't guarantee that I know their characters well. But in my opinion, they don't seem like the kind of people who would steal your five gold coins and run away. "

Rich looked disbelieving: "How do you know? You don't know them!"

Airl smiled: "If they really made up their minds to take the money and run away, why bother to come to Pelican Town to ask for news about Schwanstein Castle?"

Now, it was the viscount's turn to be at a loss for words. After thinking about it, the displeasure on his face after being deceived was slightly weakened.

"Then... According to you, they really went to my castle? But if this is the case, why haven't they come back?"

Chapter 66 Cleaning up the Castle Quest

This question is a bit difficult for Airl to answer.

He turned his head and glanced at the guild members over there again. After thinking about it, he decided to vaccinate his own members now.After all, this kind of reminder must be hung in their minds anytime and anywhere, and there must be no slack.

"Maybe...their mission failed. And the reason why their mission failed..."

Again, Arrow took a deep breath—

"It's that they're dead."

Viscount Rich, who had always maintained a high-spirited attitude before, was suddenly stunned.

He didn't seem to know how to answer this sentence, and then turned his head to look at the two bodyguards behind him.The two bodyguards also looked dignified and said nothing now.

After a while, Viscount Rich looked back at Airl, rubbing his thumbs against each other, frowning.After a long, long time, I murmured softly: "Both of them are under 20 years old...how could...I knew I wouldn't let them take my mission..."

After a while, Viscount Rich seemed to have readjusted his mentality, raised his head and glared at Airl again: "Then tell me! Are they temporary members of your guild? They are dead, and you should also send them away." If the body is recovered, at worst, you should return my money to me!"

Airl laughed helplessly: "Your Excellency, the temporary members are at their own risk. The guild just provides a registration information to prove that this person has stayed in our guild. So..."

"I do not care!"

Viscount Rich looked unhappy——

"Anyway! I've already paid! They didn't complete the task, and now they are gone. Since you are a guild they have registered with, then you have to complete the work they did not complete! No matter how bad it is, you will pay me five coins Gold coins, forget about it!"

After listening to it for so long, Cream sneered and rubbed his palm.Coco, who was on the side, saw his abnormal behavior, and asked quickly, "What do you want to do?"

"Oh, teach this second generation ancestor a lesson. Doesn't he only know about money? I'll just steal all the money from him and his bodyguards today, and see where he lives tonight!"

Brad frowned slightly after hearing this: "This...isn't it good? It will cause trouble for the president, right?"

Cream snorted, not intending to listen to Brad at all.But just when he was about to step forward, he suddenly found that Ai Luo over there looked at him with those eyes full of "tenderness" as if he had already penetrated into his own mind!

After being stared at like this, Cream couldn't help but shrink back from the steps he had taken, and retreated to the side of the other members.

Ke Ke smirked and said, "Why are you back? Didn't you want to show us something?"

Cream kept silent, just raised his index finger and drilled on the little girl's head to give her a little pain and stop talking so much.

On this side, Airl didn't have time to care about Keke's cry of pain, but continued to say to Rich: "Your Excellency Viscount, if you want to entrust our guild to work, then I have no problem at all. But if you want us to It’s really too much to be a white job. It’s not me, Mermaid Song, who accepts your job. If you really feel uncomfortable, you should probably go to the light of heaven and ask them to help you rearrange adventurers to explore. And I believe that as long as you make a request to them, they will help you deal with it as soon as possible."

"I don't care! I don't care anyway! Just play football! Do you really think I'm stupid? You are all adventurers' guilds, don't you know how to communicate with each other? Oh, you call me over here, after I pass, the light of heaven will send I'll coax you back, isn't it interesting that I run around here and there?! Let me tell you, my dad used to do this kind of dirty coaxing tricks like yours. If there are complaints, let more people complain. , run a few more times, and people will give up if there are too many times. You just want to deal with me like this, right?"

Ai Luo looked helplessly at this guy who just refused to listen to what people said.After he went crazy, Airl thought about it, and then he said again: "Well... Your Excellency the Viscount, then so be it. If you insist, we must help you complete the task. But there is a situation that requires you to Learn about."

Hearing that someone was taking over his job, Viscount Rich finally calmed down, and his face that was still very angry just now immediately turned into a smile: "What's the situation? You can just take care of it here? I need to know what's going on, and I'm not Adventurer."

Arrow straightened his face and said with a very serious look: "Your Excellency, you entrusted those two soldiers to go to your Schwann Castle to clean up at the beginning. There is no problem. If they are dead, then we will take over from them." Naturally, there is no problem with work. But the problem is that you just spent five gold coins to hire two people. It would be inappropriate to ask us, Mermaid Song, to intervene in this mission."

Rich: "Why not?"

Airl: "It's very simple. If the two soldiers are not dead, then we accept your commission to clean up Schwane Castle with them without their knowledge. However, since you promised them five gold coins at the beginning , then our Song of the Mermaid guild participated 'at your request'. Under such circumstances, do you still ask the two fighters to divide the five gold coins among us?"

Hearing this, Rich seemed unable to get around the corner for a while. He tilted his head and looked at Airl as if he wanted to see some kind of creature he couldn't understand: "But...but I did promise to give Five gold coins? They also agreed..."

Ai Luo laughed: "So, these two fighters accepted this commission precisely because you promised to give five gold coins. But they are not necessarily dead yet, so you unilaterally asked us to join this mission and They split the five gold coins. If I had to say, it's you, the great, respectable, fascinating Viscount Rich Wald who's kind of... huh, um..."

Airl spoke very tactfully, and he also believed that no matter how bad the viscount's mind was, he could still hear the meaning in his words.

Sure enough, Viscount Rich lowered his head, hesitating.That look of wanting to refute, but not knowing how to refute is really interesting.

"All in all... All in all! Their mission has failed, you... you should go down!"

Very well, the viscount started to give up thinking and started playing rogue.

Airl spread his hands, showing a look of helplessness: "You didn't see their bodies, so how can you say they are dead? Since they are not dead, and you asked for more mission members, it is reasonable to add money."

Discussing sophistry and refuting the loopholes in other people's logic, the debate class of the Department of Economics is not less training.After all, in some respects, the Department of Economics is also a subject of lip service.

The Lord Viscount kept struggling with himself, and after a long time, he still seemed unable to get himself out of this logical trap after all.

Finally, with a look of giving up, he said helplessly: "Okay, just say yes! I don't want to, my head hurts! You are the first man who made me think hard about how to answer your question , In the past, only those women could give me a headache. Just tell me! How can you help me solve the problem of my Swan Castle?"

Creatures like humans, as long as they can stop thinking, they are willing to pay money or directly use violence in many cases.It seems that for many people, thinking is an extremely painful thing.

Airl's face was once again filled with the brightest commercial smile, and he said slowly: "Hey, I won't cheat you too much here. How about it, the mission entrustment is still the same as yours before, five gold coins. After all We are not just sending two people, we will dispatch the entire guild together, just to help you take care of your Swan Castle."

Rich: "Five—"

"Hey, wait a minute, I haven't finished yet. I said I can't make you feel too stupid, right?"

"If we do see that the two soldiers are still alive after we cleared your Schwann Castle, or if for any other reason they have not had time to clean them up, but we are the first to get there, then these five gold coins will be regarded as our mermaids. The reward for the song, we accept it with a smile."

"But if, on the other hand, unfortunately, we found the bodies of the two of them in Schwann Castle, if we can still touch those gold coins from them, then our guild will only accept these gold coins as a matter of course, and you don't have to, Viscount No more spending."

"In the last case, we confirmed that they were dead, but we didn't find those gold coins on them, so it is obvious that the two fighters have already spent all the money, and it is naturally impossible for our guild to inherit an empty money. The mission of your purse, so we still have your five gold coins in our pockets."

"Look, how about this distribution method?"

The Viscount thought about it for a while, but it was obvious that after some brainwashing just now, his "don't want to think" came faster than Arrow imagined.He patted the table directly and said: "Okay! That's it, anyway, I will treat myself as spending fifteen gold coins for this task. But! Your guild must guarantee that I can clean up the Swan Castle Ah, I don't want any monsters in there to bite me when I move in and go to sleep at night."

Airl smiled: "We'll try our best. But if the difficulty of cleaning up this Swan Castle far exceeds our guild's ability to handle it, then please take your money and go back to find the Light of Heaven."

Chapter 67 Information Gathering Before Missions

The Viscount frowned, probably wondering why he came back after going around for a long time?

But at any rate, part of the negotiation has been settled now. Ai Luo took out the power of attorney and wrote the entrustment and the type of money on it very skillfully. After a cursory glance, Viscount Rich took out five gold coins from his pocket and placed them on the table. Go up, turn around and get off the high stool: "I'll just wait for your good news! I'll be staying in the Unicorn Hotel for the next two days, so let me know immediately if it's cleaned up!"

Weighing the five golden coins, Airl's eyes burst into laughter.Immediately, he respectfully sent the viscount out of the guild gate, and waved to him enthusiastically until he turned a corner and was no longer seen.

"yeah!"

He was so excited, even so excited that the guild leader couldn't help but clenched his fists and let out a small cheer.

Five gold coins!These are five golden coins!

Airl held the five gold coins in his hands, took out one and took a breath, and listened to it by his ear.Then he tossed the five gold coins repeatedly in his hands, listening to the crisp and pleasant sound of collisions inside.

This voice... Only Tian Lai can play such a moving tone!I really can't get tired of listening to it no matter how many times!But Arrow also knew that this kind of business didn't happen often.This time, it was also thanks to the light of heaven that raised the entrusted price, and he also took advantage of the trend to ask for the price.Under normal circumstances, I'm afraid it would be a big deal for me to ask for at most two gold coins.

Holding the gold coins back behind the counter and putting them away, as long as Ai Luo's eyes stopped looking at the shiny golden thing, he would naturally start to calm down.

At this time, the members of the guild who had been listening by the side also came over and gathered in front of the counter.

"That man is such a fool."

For outsiders, Coco's evaluation will not be so polite.

Ai Luo shook his head, and said with a smile: "How can you comment on our guest like that? Ai Luo, you must know that since someone is willing to give us money, it means that this guest is very smart! So, as long as it is given Our money's guests are the smartest people in the world! Do you understand that?"

Coco silently rolled his eyes.Cream on the side seemed a bit worried: "Forget about the Viscount, let's talk about this Schwann Castle. What are you going to do with it?"

This is a problem.

Two warriors went to explore Schwanstein Castle, never to return.In fact, Airl hoped that the real answer would be that the two soldiers suddenly felt troubled after they arrived at the gate of the castle, and they just ran away with the money. At least he would feel better that way.

This good feeling does not mean that the two people feel good living with Airl, but that they did not explore the castle, so there may not be any "existence" in this castle that can kill these two fighters.

However, such hope is only hope.

Judging from the current point of view, Airl is indeed more inclined that the two of them have all been wiped out in Schwanstein Castle.Likewise, this also meant that there must be something very bad inside the castle.

"I don't know if the two soldiers went there during the day or at night... I warned them before they left that if they entered at night, they might encounter some monsters who are good at sneak attacks and like dark and narrow areas... If there are really monsters in there For some kind of magical beast, going at night may really be a trap..."

"Well...Actually, we don't have much choice. We currently don't have the ability to make night vision potions, so we can only go to discuss and investigate during the day. So this-"

Airl took a breath, took out a stack of paper and a pen from under the counter, put it in front of Cream and said, "Cream, you are fast and have rich combat experience, and you have a shadow ring to escape from." .If we want to explore safely, we need to make preparations in advance. Can you go to the vicinity of the Swan Castle to check first?"

"Me? Alone?" Cream seemed a little nervous, "I said, now I want to investigate a place where two fully prepared fighters may have been killed, you let me go alone?"

Airl nodded: "Indeed, this is indeed not possible."

As he spoke, he took out one of the three bottles of therapeutic aerosol from the counter behind and handed it to Cream along with the pens and paper—

"You take this bottle of medicine for self-defense. I don't need you to enter Swan Castle to investigate. You just need to look around and search to see if there are any traces of monsters or other traces. Then look Look at the entrance and exit of Swan Castle, check the terrain. As a thief, I hope you can play your role as much as possible. Remember to come back before dark. Also, remember what you said, adventurers will not take risks, you must remember Keep yourself safe."

Now that Airl has said that, what else can Cream have to say?

He picked up his things helplessly, put his backpack on his back, picked up his sharp-toothed dagger from the training room, and went out.
