The sun is high

When the words came, Sally naturally no longer needed to stay in the "Alchemy Thief" shop. It was already sunset, and she had to return to the beer hall quickly, otherwise it would be old Schubert waiting for her. Furious.

So Sally made a face at Shuge, and then slipped out of the store briskly.

"Um……"

The huge boss Gerald reached out and turned on several other magic lamps, then came to an equally huge chair and sat down. He took a heavy breath, then looked at Sugar and said: "Mr. Ernst, Little Sally likes you very much."

Gerrard's tone was very subtle

But also very sincere.

Xiuge looked at the giant boss and paused in his movements. After a while, he nodded: "Yeah... I know."

He does know.

As an ordinary girl who grew up in the city of Salem, Sally Miranda's way of looking at things and people is simple and cautious. Although she is at the bottom of the world full of all kinds of messy information, she is more willing to believe that she has passed through it. The judgment made by her eyes was precisely because of this, when her original body, the unlucky and pitiful illegitimate son of the Ernst family, arrived in Salem City, she did not directly express contempt and hostility like others. look.

However, the memories that Shuge inherited showed that the original Shuge Ernst was so inferior. Although he also had complex emotions for this young and beautiful female bartender, he never dared to make any obvious statement. expression, but Shuge himself had no time to deal with this situation after taking over the body.

Although Lin Xiuge, who controls this body, has a liberal arts background, he is always extremely rational in some aspects.

"If I really want to repay her feelings for Sugar Ernst, then I must deal with the next thing... If possible, then find a way to take her out of Salem City."

Xiuge lowered his gaze and sighed helplessly in his heart.

Boss Gerald seemed to understand something. He chuckled a few times, then raised his fat arm that was strangled by clothes, and grabbed a huge metal cup from the cabinet next to him. He poured a few mouthfuls of it into his mouth.

At this time, Xiuge noticed that the legs of the boss Gerald seemed to be unusually thick and short. Compared with his exaggerated figure, his legs seemed to be grafted onto his body. It's hard to imagine how such lower limbs can support such an exaggerated body.

"Well... I'm part ogre."

Boss Gerald obviously has the ability to stop talking without surprising. He put down the water glass in his hand, then reached out and grabbed a hidden handle on the wall behind him. With a seemingly easy pull, he pulled the seemingly easy handle. The extremely heavy half wall was pulled away.

It turned out to be a hidden container.

Xiuge estimated the weight of the wall and exclaimed, "Are you serious?"

"What's the point of lying...hahaha."

Boss Gerald licked his lips in the light of the magic lamp: "In terms of ancestry, I have 30% Eastern ogre blood. I am an ogre from the Eastern world on the other side of the ocean."

"Will the Eastern Ogres be any different?"

"Of course, of course."

Gerald was talking very happily. He opened the drawers in the container and said: "Compared to the ogres on the Luowei Plateau, the ogres in the East actually don't eat humans very much. Since then, Decades ago, several major empires in the East signed restriction treaties against the ogres. The ogres no longer dared to attack humans casually. They are now like... just like some big... They have the same appetite as humans. They serve as soldiers and laborers while earning living expenses and food. They have strength and brains that are easy to use."

Shuge's expression became a little subtle. He didn't expect that Gerald would be so unkind when talking about his ancestors and elders, but if he thought about it carefully, it was normal. Considering the rejection and rejection of foreign races by humans in Van En, Judging from the level of hostility, Gerald's words can be considered merciless.

"Okay, let's not talk about those things. You said you want incense materials? Which ones do you want?"

Boss Gerald patted the open drawer next to him: "Let's talk about it first. If your demand is large, then I can give you an extra discount. If it's less...well, then the discount will naturally be smaller. Is that acceptable?"

"certainly."

Xiuge nodded, and then said: "But... in fact, what I want is not those incense materials, but some other alchemical medicinal materials. In addition, I may also need to buy some rarer and scarcer materials." Goods, I wonder if you can provide them here?”

Shouge's words made Boss Gerald stunned, but he reacted immediately, so he pointed to the door of the store: "Go and close the door. There is a sign behind the door. Please hang it out for me and don't let others in." .”

Xiuge nodded, and then did as he was told.

He was not worried that the boss with ogre blood whom he had just met would do something terrible to him. After all, he did not feel any hostility from the other party, and he had been doing this for the past two days. There was no warning sign in their extremely sensitive spiritual world.

Soon, the store with the "rest" sign was closed, and Shuge stood in front of boss Gerald again.

"Mr. Ernst, tell me, what do you want?"

Gerald's expression became extremely serious: "Since you used 'incense materials' to deal with little Sally, then it must be that what you need is not too ordinary?"

Shuge shook his head: "If you only look at the types of items, they are not very scarce, but I have strict requirements for the quality of these things."

Hearing what Shuge said, Gerald also became interested. He patted the container behind him, raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell me."

So, Xiuge read out the names of the items he had "coveted for a long time" one by one.

"The left ear of an adult earth dragon must be intact."

"The jungle short-tailed wolf has five sharp teeth, all of which are required to have venom glands."

"The rhizomes of young killer vines cannot be broken."

"The traveling spider has eight eyeballs. They must all belong to the same spider and retain their magic power."

"Three bottles of moss on the back of the swamp witch, and their hair... well, let's forget about this."

As Shuge kept reporting what he wanted, Boss Gerald's eyebrows gradually knitted together. Finally, after Shuge almost said "three baskets of fresh hair from the swamp witch", he reluctantly Unable to hold on any longer, he raised his hand to interrupt Xiuge's words.

"Stop!"

Gerald's big face was twisted into a ball. At this moment, he finally felt a little like an ogre: "Mr. Ernst, are you sure you need these things? Why do I feel that you Are you here to entertain me?"

At this moment, Xiuge felt a huge sense of oppression coming towards his face.

The other party's image is somewhat similar to "Suppressing Guanxi", but unfortunately he is not Lu Tiha, so naturally he cannot bear such momentum.

So he quickly waved his hand: "Of course it's impossible. Do you think I would be such a boring person? Today is just the first time we meet. I don't have to risk being pinched in half to provoke you."

After listening to Xiuge's words, Gerald finally calmed down.

He pulled out a notebook from a corner of the cabinet, and then took out an old magic pen: "Repeat what you just said... If you haven't finished, continue, I need to first Write it down so you can check it one by one in the warehouse."

After saying that, he glared at Xiuge again: "I hope you really aren't entertaining me!"

"Absolutely not."

Xiuge said sincerely: "But I have to tell you, I only need to buy some of them, not all of them. The upper limit of the budget is about three general gold coins. Do you think you can accept it?"

"Three universal gold coins...three universal gold coins."

Gerald mumbled and repeated it twice, then nodded: "Okay, but if this is the case, I will delete some of the things you listed, because their prices are simply not worth a few gold coins. It can be solved, not to mention that there are some things that are on the verge of contraband inside."

As he spoke, he made two strong scratches on the notebook with his magic pen, and then picked up the notebook and showed it. Xiuge noticed that the two crossed out were "Earth Dragon's Complete Left Ear" and "Earth Dragon's Complete Left Ear" Walking through a spider’s eyeball.”

"Come on, Mr. Ernst, go on. Is there anything else you want?"

"There are quite a few more. Can I tell you in one go?"

Gerald nodded: "Say!"

He has the aura of a slaughterhouse owner.

Then a series of strange terms popped out of Xiuge's mouth. Listening to these tricky requirements, Gerald's expression became extremely subtle.

In the end, Shuge reported everything he could think of, which naturally included such strange requests as "a basket of fresh hair from the swamp witch" and "a set of orthodox female noble accessories of the Kingdom of Walter".

Even the well-informed Gerald, his face inevitably became distorted after hearing the names of these two things.

Gerald put away the notebook, glanced at the young man in front of him with a complicated expression, and then said: "Mr. Ernst, with all due respect, some of the things in it cannot be regarded as incense. The materials cannot be used for alchemy, and they cannot even be used as collectibles."

He swallowed, and then continued: "Of course, if this is just your personal hobby...well, I can find a way to find them for you, but are you sure you need them? I don't want to It ruins the reputation of your store."

"I'm sure, Mr. Gerrard."

Xiuge forced a smile: "If conditions permit, I can also increase the budget to four or even five general gold coins. Within this range, no matter how many things you come up with that meet the conditions, I will accept them. "

"Okay, if I don't have money, I'm worse than a giant-eared goblin!"

Gerald pulled up the container, and then stuffed the notebook into his waistband: "Mr. Ernst, you can go, I will check the warehouse now, as long as I find something that can meet your requirements Everything will be picked up... Tonight, I will take the things to Ernst's old house, and then we will trade in person."

"Deal, Mr. Gerrard."

…

Before leaving Mrs. Small's shopping street, Shuge made a special trip to the "Earth Dragon's Corner" store that made the noise last night. This store was larger than Gerald's "Alchemy Thief". There are many, which not only sell incense and alchemical medicinal materials, but also many magic items for daily use.

In the store, Shuge smelled a somewhat unpleasant smell, which was somewhat similar to the smell of sewers in his impression. The clerk obviously could not find the source of the smell, so they used a lot of incense in the store. , making the whole store filled with smoke, making it impossible to stay.

After confirming that there were no other traces here, Xiuge quickly hurried towards the old house.

He is now in a rare good mood. Human beings are always like this. As long as they can still see light and hope in difficult situations, they can always move forward.

The feedback given by boss Gerald made him full of expectations for the evening's contact. This feeling was very similar to those gamers in the previous life who had finally saved enough resources and were ready to "make a big deal".

In this way, Shuge returned to the old house of the Ernst family with a vision of his future and a can of minced meat and mashed potatoes for dinner.

After sitting at the desk in the bedroom, Xiuge calmed down again. He carefully thought about the information revealed to him by the female mage Weilin Ernst during the day. Then he picked up a pen and wrote on the blank manuscript paper. I started writing quickly.

Of course he didn't want to seriously write some texts for Philip to incite public sentiment, but then Shuge felt that he still needed to go to the Peace Newspaper Office. If he didn't have the finished manuscript in his hands at that time, he wanted to open it. It's not easy to open the door to that guy Philip's office.

"To be honest, this kind of thing is much easier than what I usually write. There is no logic or evidence at all, just let your emotions vent and make it up."

While Shuge was writing on the manuscript paper the kind of ambiguous text that was filled with a lot of fabricated information in accordance with Philip's request, the more he wrote, the more he couldn't help but shake his head. He felt a little nauseous just looking at it.

Time passed little by little, and just when Xiuge was about to end this disgusting article for himself, he heard a carriage slowly stop in front of the gate of the old house, followed by a heavy knock on the door. got up.

In order to prevent the door of the old house from being destroyed by Gerald's exaggerated power, Shuge had no choice but to put down the manuscript that was about to end, put on his windbreaker and quickly went downstairs. After he reached out to open the door, Gerald's extremely personal The characteristic huge figure and feminine face appeared in front of Xiuge.

"Mr. Ernst, get ready to receive the goods!"
