Chapter 35 · No money
Looking at a stone tablet at the entrance of the village with the three words Varo Town written on it, Li Jiaming understood that the village that the village that Kilan said was actually this town. People around Li Jiaming and others in unusual costumes frequently paid attention to it. When they saw Li Jiaming's black arm, the people around them dodged one after another.
Li Jiaming looked around carefully and found that the clothes of the people here are very similar to the construction of the surrounding houses and the Western medieval customs on earth.
It's just that the people here are not only blonde and blue-eyed, but also have yellow skin and black hair. Princess Liluo has black hair, but his eyes are blue, a beautiful sapphire blue.
"Kylan, this place is full of rags! Where do we live?" Princess Liluo looked around and frowned with a disgusted expression.
"Princess! This is the place where ordinary people live. Not all people can live in luxurious places like princes and nobles. You shouldn't dislike these. They are all your people," Carl said
After all, Liluo is still a little girl and many things are recognized as imagined, but after all, he still has a lot of cultivation after being a royal family. Hearing Carl's reminder, Liluo suddenly realized, "Thank you, Carl! You corrected one of my mistakes! This is my kingdom in the future! They are all my people! I shouldn't dislike these. Kieran can find a house to live in! I want to take this opportunity to get to know the kingdom under my father's rule.
"This princess..." Seeing that the princess couldn't wait to find a hotel to live in Kieran, she squeaked.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Kieran's abnormal expression, Liluo turned around and asked.
"Because of the incident, we suddenly didn't bring gold coins... Please forgive me!" After saying that, Kieran was about to kneel down, but a pair of slender arms assisted Kieran.
"Keelan, it's good if we can come out alive! Don't worry about this! Don't call me princess until you take back the kingdom! Carl, you are the same." Lilo smiled slightly and then her eyes became very firm. "At that time, you will call me Queen!"
Yes! "Miss...Miss!"
"Yes! Miss! Your knight has always been guarding you"
Li Jiaming watched their performance impermanencely and boredly, but in fact, Li Jiaming also wants to find a safe place to rest now. After falling out of the space, he has not had time to check his figure.
"Mr. Carl, do you have any gold coins on you?" Kieran looked at Carl
"That...I didn't..." When Kieran asked, Carl also blushed
"Ah, I said that if you don't have money, you can exchange them." Looking at the embarrassment of these people, Li Jiaming couldn't help reminding them
"Yes! Change something! Look at what we have..." Kilan clapped his hands, but then he was silent. He had nothing to exchange for. The princess wore this dust-stained white skirt and was scratched several places. Carl's sword is broken, otherwise it may be replaced, and no one will want the tattered armor on his body.
"What? There is nothing that can be changed." Li Jiaming's eyes widened. "You are really exhausted."
Now it seems that if Li Jiaming hadn't known that Liluo was a princess, no one would have believed that one of the three people in front of him was a princess, one was the chief of the royal family, and the other was the royal butler of the royal family! These three people can't even afford to live in a small village...
"Is there a place to make money? Shall we find a temporary job to make some money?" This sentence plunged Kieran into meditation
"I think there should be!" Carl said, "Look, there is a mercenary union over there. There will be a commission for completing a few tasks!"
"The mercenary union must be a mercenary regiment to take over the task, right? We don't even have money to register the mercenary regiment now." Kieran withdraws to
"No problem!" Carl took out a badge from his chest, "I used to be the head of a mercenary regiment before I became the chief of the royal family. Later, after I entered the palace, the members of the mercenary regiment also dispersed, but the mercenary regiment still existed."
"That's good! Let's go! I want to see what the mercenary union looks like." Liluo looks very excited
Three men and one woman walked to the mercenary union, and as soon as they opened the door, everyone's attention turned to everyone.
Li Jiaming looked around and felt that the mercenary union was like a former bank reception hall. The whole room was divided into two parts. On one side was a counter. A waitress on the counter kept helping to register in front of the counter. On the other hand, there were a large number of chairs, and some people sat sparsely on the chairs, most of them It's some rough men.
All this is also very new to Li Jiaming. In the past, there were no mercenary regiments on earth to complete tasks or anything. These things are plots in games or novels.
Li Jiaming noticed that the people in the mercenary union frequently looked at them, focusing on Li Jiaming's black arm, and almost all of them showed a surprised expression in their eyes.
The second thing is to pay attention to this princess Liluo. Liluo is originally a very cute girl with big eyes and a very delicate face. Originally, she always exuded a noble temperament under the influence of royal life.
Li Jiaming noticed a half-lying man not far away, with his clothes wide open, revealing the thick panda on it. He stared at Liluo with a pair of eyes and didn't know what he was pounding in his thick crotch.
"Miss! Kieran, sit down first! I'll pick up the task." Before Carl walked to the counter
Li Jiaming was curious and came up to see something new. There were not many people queuing at the counter, and soon it was Carl's turn.
Karl handed out the badge on his chest, and the waitress looked at the badge and asked
"Mercenary regiment's name, your name, and the tasks to be taken"
"Sword Tiger Mercenary Corps! Carl! Let me see what tasks can be released recently"
"Wait a minute" heard Carl report the female service of the Sword and Tiger Mercenary Regiment with a surprised expression on his face. He spoke in a respectful tone, and then quickly took out a booklet full of recently released mercenary tasks.
"Haha! Did you hear that? Does this guy say that he is from the Sword and Tiger Mercenary Regiment? It's so funny!" A bearded man with a huge axe on his back with a bag of money in his hand immediately laughed when he heard Carl's words.
"Sword and Tiger Mercenary Regiment? The one that was later disbanded by the A-level mercenary regiment?"
"I heard that the head of the regiment was recruited by the royal family"
"But the sword and tiger mercenaries were really awesome at the beginning! It is said that it was the most likely to become a new generation of S-level mercenary regiment at the beginning.
"No matter how awesome it is, it's not scattered!" People around heard the name Sword Tiger and talked about it one after another
"I take this task," Carl ignored the comments of people around him and pointed to a task in the brochure and said
"Look! The people of the Sword and Tiger Mercenary Regiment took on a task to help others cho lay wood! Hahaha" The bearded man said the task taken by Carl, which made the people around him laugh
"Ky! I said you are pretending to be a sword tiger mercenary regiment, right? Why do you only take a mercenary regiment registration badge? Take out your sword and tiger emblems and have a look! There is nothing to be ashamed of the little mercenary regiment!" The beard seems to pay attention to this bustle.
"Help me complete the formalities" Carl ignored his beard and said to the waitress
"If you get 10 silver coins after completing the task, you need to pay a deposit of 1 silver coin"
"What? Deposit 1 silver coin?" Carl, who did not change under the mockery of his beard, suddenly changed his face when he heard that he was going to pay 10 copper coins.
"Yes, please pay 1 silver coin to take this task," the waitress repeated
Carl's face became embarrassed when he heard that he had to pay the deposit. Now he can't even take out 1 copper coin, let alone 1 silver coin
"Hahaha! Can't the people of the Sword Tiger Mercenary Regiment even take out a silver coin? Do you want me to help you? Haha" his beard shook the bag full of coins in his hand and made a loud sound
"I help him pay" A man in a black cloak with a huge black sword on his back came over and put a silver coin on the counter.
"Well, thank you" Carl was stunned and dared to say thank you.
"After completing the task, please ask the employer to sign on it and come back to receive the reward!" The waitress collected the silver coins and handed Carl a note.
Collect the note, Carl took Princess Lilo out of the mercenary union
"Look! The people of the Sword Tiger Mercenary Regiment have left!" The beard is still making a fuss in the end
Li Jiaming shrugged his shoulders and walked out
"Carl told me about the mercenary regiment!" Li Jiaming walked to Carl, who had been silent since the mercenary regiment came out
"What do you want to know?" It seems that what happened to the mercenary union just now made Carl very unhappy
"You said you were from the Sword and Tiger Mercenary Regiment! Hearing them, it seems that the Sword and Tiger Mercenary Regiment is a very powerful team! But why can't you prove yourself?
"Ai" Carl sighed, "The Sword and Tiger Mercenary Regiment is a thing of the past!" I left his badge in the palace! All I carry with me is the registration badge of the mercenary regiment! Damn it! In the past, I was only responsible for fighting in the mercenary regiment. I didn't care about money at all, and I didn't even know that I needed to call a deposit for the task! I'm so..." Carl is a little annoyed
"It's okay! Everyone makes mistakes!" Li Jiaming comforted, "Why did the fat man say that you were pretending?"
"How much is it for the mercenary regiment to complete the task! The junior mercenary regiment is also the F-level mercenary regiment! Generally, you can receive the task by presenting the registration badge of the mercenary regiment and then reporting the name of your mercenary regiment!
And the points after completing the task will be counted on your mercenary regiment! If you are holding someone else's mercenary regiment! Then the points are also on others! The higher the level of the mercenary regiment, the more tasks you can receive. For example, the more tasks your F-level mercenary regiment can receive is only F-level tasks! But you can receive the task of A at level A.
Of course, there are also people who take on some disgusting tasks! Because they think it will be humiliating to remember the name of their mercenary regiment after receiving these tasks. At that time, they will randomly report the name of a mercenary regiment and reward them, but the points will be counted on other people's mercenary regiment!"
"Karl's former mercenary regiment can reach level A, which looks amazing!" Li Jiaming is curious about what an A-level mercenary regiment will look like
"You are in the past." Carl smiled bitterly. Obviously, he didn't want to say more about the past. "Let's go! Go to chop wood! Then after receiving these 100 silver coins, the princess can at least find a place to rest first! Then we continue to take the task"
According to the instructions of the task, Li Jiaming and others quickly found their employers. It turned out that the employer was a wood merchant, very strong, wearing a sweat towel on his shoulder, revealing the strong muscles of his upper body. At this time, he was waving the axe in his hand to chop wood vigorously, and a football field-sized field behind him was full of wood.
"You are finally here! I thought no one would take on this task." The strong man took the note handed to him by the mercenary union handed by Carl, and then wiped the sweat on his face with a sweat towel on his shoulder.
"Are you all here to do this task?" The strong man looked at the elderly Princess Kieran and Lilo, and now he doesn't think this old man and a delicate-looking girl can swing an axe.
"No, it's just me!" Carl said
"Well, that's good! Think of all this wood as two halves and it's done! Otherwise, you can cut two-thirds of it!" Originally, the strong man wanted Carl to cut all the wood directly, but looking at the wood almost all over the football stadium, he seemed to feel a little embarrassed to let others do so much work with 100 silver coins.
"I know! Give me the axe." Carl stretched out his hand and took the axe from the strong man's hand and walked to Lilo. "Miss, please wait a moment."
"En" Lilo nodded
"Hey, Kieran. Is it cost-effective to cut these wood with 100 silver coins? Li Jiaming had nothing to do and went to Kieran and asked him that he had no coin concept of this matter at all.
"100 silver coins?" Kieran suddenly shouted out, then stood up and pointed to the strong man and said, "You hired a man with 100 silver coins to cut so much wood!" You are too dark!"
"He is willing to take on this task! And I also said that it's okay for him to finish two-thirds!"
Two-thirds? You have to cut it yourself for at least a month! No wonder no one took over your task! To be honest! You have to add money! Otherwise, I'll let him quit!" Kieran pointed to Wood Carl with an axe and said
"Well! Well, I'll add 100!" Obviously, Kieran's words threatened the strong man and even compromised.
"No! Add a thousand!" Kieran doesn't think it's enough
"One thousand! That's better than doing it myself! Add 200 to a total of 300 silver coins from the mercenary regiment!" Obviously, a thousand silver coins are unacceptable to this strong man
"Add 500! A total of 600! Otherwise, we will just leave! Think about it! It will take you to sit on your own for at least a month!" Kilan looked at the strong man.
The strong man showed muscles**, looked at Kilan from time to time and looked at the countless wood, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Good deal! But he has to cut down all the wood"
"Alle! I promise! I will finish cutting it this afternoon!" Kilan smiled
"One afternoon?" The strong man obviously doesn't believe it. If you can cut it in one afternoon, I will give you another 1,000 silver coins! It's just a gold coin!"
"It's a deal! If we can't finish it in one afternoon, we won't charge you!" Kieran smiled confidently.
Li Jiaming and Princess Liluo stared at Kieran's bargaining. Originally, 100 silver coins turned into 600 silver coins after a few words, and then bet on a gold coin!
"It's so annoying! This guy is so stingy!" Kieran sat back, and now he still feels a little angry. "I dare to say that if he hires someone himself, he needs to spend at least two gold coins!" This is too cheap for him!"
Hearing Kiland's words, Li Jiaming was sweating profusely. He really had his own strengths. If Kilan's bargaining skills were put on those profiteers on the earth to do business with him, he had to cry.
