Chapter 34 (2/2)
Cora's eyebrows crowded into a pile. He shook his head: ”it's too expensive! I see a patient's diagnosis gold is only one silver coin. Do you want me a gold coin directly? I can't see many patients a month, you know? ”
Arrow smiled and spread out his hands: ”this is a demon, and he has begun to eat the demon of living life, shrem. God knows what terrible things they will do next. Or... Dr. Cora, you can make do with it and never go to the shining forest to collect medicine again. Anyway, as long as you don't get close to there, those shrems shouldn't come to trouble you. ”
”How can that work?!”
Perhaps it was because he was too nervous, the doctor blurted out——
”I... I usually live on these herbs! How else would you let me eat? How to drink? If you can't pick herbs, you will kill me alive! ”
After yelling, Corazon opened Brad's hand and tried to grab arrow's hand again. After being dodged by arrow again, the old man suddenly said fiercely: ”you... Have monsters. Instead of killing them, you come to ask me for money? Isn't killing monsters the most important thing you adventurers should do? Don't you exercise and form this guild just to kill monsters?! If we can't afford it, are you going to watch our whole Pelican town destroyed by monsters? ”
At this point, Cora suddenly stood up from her seat, pointed at ello angrily and shouted——
”Ah ~ ~ ~ I understand. So you're not even residents of Pelican town! You are just some cruel mercenaries, some cold-blooded killers who just want to make money! I tell you, if I can't live, I'll make you too! I will... I will speak ill of you everywhere! You'll see! ”
Brad has a good temper, but coco is not. She had endured for a long time that the doctor repeatedly provoked her president and wanted to entrust tasks without giving money. Now she was angry to see that this guy scolded him. She immediately took a step forward holding a dead tree branch.
But after all, arrow reached out and gently stopped her.
”Oh, look what Mr. Cora said.”
Moral kidnapping, emotional debt.
In the past, arrow only saw this kind of thing in books. I didn't expect to see a living example now?
I can only say that this kind of behavior is very rogue. If you are not reasonable, you can still come up with all kinds of messy reasons to convince yourself that you are right, so as to oppress others. In a way, this kind of cheekiness is also a skill.
Looking at the angry guy, arrow continued to maintain his commercial smile and said, ”well, we also hope that the business can be more developed. But at the same time, our guild is often short of manpower. Once we encounter any problems with our short manpower, we will be very passive. ”
Cora saw that ello didn't follow his words, but changed the topic. She was anxious immediately and quickly wanted to pull back the conversation: ”what are you talking about? I said you have to help our town residents solve their problems! ”
Arrow was not in a hurry and continued to laugh, ”don't worry, let me finish. I don't like confrontation and cooperation. So don't be so angry with me, Mr. Cora. We are all residents of Pelican town. We don't have to be unhappy with each other for such a small thing. Don't you just want to destroy this demon and continue to collect herbs? Then why don't we sign a contract. ”
Cora: the contract
Napa on the counter glanced at the barefoot doctor and yawned: ”it's starting again.”
Arrow said with a smile, ”yes, we'll make a contract. Since you think a gold coin is too expensive, how much do you think is appropriate? Of course, free is impossible. Just like the doctor, you can't help people see a doctor for free all day, can you? Although it is the bounden duty of an excellent doctor like you to save the lives and heal the wounded. ”
After being flattered, Cora's face eased significantly. He nodded and sat down again in his seat: ”I didn't say you were free, just that your price is too expensive! Well, if you had talked to me so politely earlier, I wouldn't be in a hurry. How about... Five silver coins? ”
”Deal!”
In order to prevent this guy from turning back, ello agreed immediately, but then added his own conditions——
”It's just that the cost performance of five silver coins is too low. We need to prepare more than that. In order to make up for it on the other hand, as I said just now, our guild is not fully staffed at present, so I hope to buy the medicinal materials collected by Dr. Cora in the future. ”
Cora was slightly stunned. I'm afraid he didn't think of this at all. His face was full of confusion: ”you... Want to buy the herbs I bought?”
Arrow smiled and nodded: ”after Mr. Cora collects any medicinal materials from the shining forest, he must first send them to our guild and let our guild take the lead in purchasing. As for the purchase price... It may be a little cheaper than what you sell in big cities, but it saves you the trouble of fatigue. The slightly larger city nearest to Pelican town should be xiehu city. Even if you ride a horse, it will take two or three days to come back. It's cheaper to deduct your toll. ”
