Gold coin is justice

The townspeople separated the two sides and let the fast horse pass quickly.The rider on the horse looked very flustered and fussy. Before and after arriving at the gate of the Mermaid Song Guild, he didn't even have time to stop the horse, so he hurriedly rolled off his horse.

"be careful!"

Brad moved quickly and immediately stepped forward to catch the man who had fallen from the Malay.Cocoa waved a dead branch, and the skeleton soldier quickly stepped forward and grabbed the reins of the horse that was about to lose control, stopping the panting old horse.

Airo frowned and stepped forward and said, "Doctor Kola? What's so nervous? Your old horse usually takes you to the next town for a clinic. Everyday baby is going to die. What is happening today? So nervous?"

This man named Kola is about sixty years old and belongs to a doctor in Pelican Town.Although he is a doctor, according to Airo's experience in big cities, he should be a barefoot doctor at best.The small cold and bruises in Pelican Town may be okay, but for serious illnesses, the only thing the doctor can do is to carry the patient onto his carriage and quickly transport it to the nearest city to find it. Of professional doctors.

Dr. Kola was out of breath, his face was blue, and with Brad's support, he finally walked in front of Airo, and said with a look of embarrassment: "Monster...Monster! The monster is out!" In the Shining Forest, monster! What a big, terrible thing!"

As soon as they heard of a monster, the townspeople who were about to disperse once again surrounded them, and everyone's faces were both scared and excited to hear gossip.

But so many people are indeed inconvenient. Ai Luo thought for a while and asked Brad to help Dr. Cora into the guild and sit down in the rest area.Cocoa brought a glass of water and put it in front of him.

"Take a breath first, and talk about it, what is going on?"

With this glass of water, Kola's expression finally eased a lot.After letting his breathing as smooth as possible, he finally said--

"Monster! I... I saw the monster!"

"I am going to the Shining Forest today to collect herbs during the day! You should also know that? Shining Forest is rich in many herbs. I will gather some of them and dry them, and then I will transport them to the big city at some time to sell them to make money."

"But today...this afternoon! Just when I thought I had almost the same harvest and wanted to come back! But... I suddenly saw...so big! Such a big lump of sludge! That sludge is like It's alive! Crawling slowly in the forest!"

"I was so frightened that I stood still and didn't dare to move! Then, seeing this muddy thing with my own eyes, I suddenly wrapped a passing rabbit!"

"That rabbit...rabbit! It's constantly struggling in the belly of that monster, but it's like drowning, no matter how hard it struggles, it can't escape!"

"I just saw it with my own eyes... I watched the rabbit in that muddy belly. The transparent belly melted little by little, first the hair, then the skin, then the meat, then the internal organs, and the bones. There is really nothing left, it is terrible... terrible!"

Having said this, he suddenly got up and wanted to grab Ai Luo's hand, Ai Luo instinctively shrank back, and continued with a gentle and polite smile on his face.The doctor didn't grasp Airo's hand, so he turned his head and grabbed the huge and rough palm of Brad next to him, and said excitedly: "The monster saw it. I have a hunch that he must have seen me! If I didn’t react quickly to escape, he must have eaten with me!"

"You are an adventurer's guild? Are you specializing in dealing with these monsters?! You...can you kill the monster? Will the monster crawl to my house at night! My house is just east of the town. , That thing will touch my house as soon as it enters the village. I am afraid, I am really afraid!"

Judging from Kola's words, it should be that King Slime was right.No matter how bad it is, they should also be some of the slime guards under King Slime.

It's just that Aylor didn't expect that in less than two months, these slimes would have changed from eating wheat to eating living creatures.It seems that their numbers have really started to expand.

Confirmed the mission goal, and then think about your team lineup——

One soldier and one mage.I can barely count the Parfait who only knows the fragrance, plus I am an incompetent person, at most two combatants, an ornament, and my own brain.

So, the answer is obvious.King Slime is far from a problem that their guild can solve.

"I understand. If there are monsters and commissions, we will have business. Mr. Kola, let's talk about the rewards. According to the difficulty of adventurers in our guild (refer to the task level description on the wall), this The task should be above the Bronze level. In other words, start with at least 1 gold coin."

"A gold coin?!"

Sure enough, when it comes to the question of money, any terrible monster is immediately left behind.

Kola's brows squeezed into a pile, and he shook his head: "It's too expensive! I see a patient's consultation fee is only one silver coin. You want me a gold coin? I haven't seen many patients in a month, you know. ?!"

Ai Luo smiled, spreading his hands as if nothing could be done: "This is a monster, and it has begun to eat monster slimes of living life. God knows what terrible things they will do next. Or... Kou You will stop by Dr. Pull, and never go to Shining Forest to collect medicine. Anyway, as long as you don’t get near there, those slimes shouldn’t bother you."

"How can that work?!"

Maybe it was because he was too nervous, the doctor blurted out--

"I...I usually live on these herbs! Otherwise, how would you let me eat? How would you drink? If you can't pick herbs, you will make me alive!"

After the yelling, Kola let go of Brad's hand, and tried to come over to grab Airo's hand again.After being evaded by Airo again, the old man suddenly said with a vicious look: "You...you have monsters, you don't want to kill them, but instead ask me for money? Isn't it the best thing for you adventurers to kill monsters? Is it something? You exercise, you formed this guild, didn’t it exist to kill monsters?! If we can’t afford to pay, don’t you plan to watch our entire Pelican Town be destroyed by monsters? ?!"

Having said this, Kola stood up abruptly from his seat, and pointed at Airo with a frustrated expression--

"Ah~~~ I understand. It turns out that you are not even residents of our Pelican Town! You are just some cruel mercenaries, some cold-blooded killers who just want to make money! I tell you, if I don’t get through Go down, and I will make it difficult for you! I will...I will say bad things about you everywhere! Wait and see!"

Brad has a good temper, but Coco is not.She has endured this doctor's repeated provocations against her own president and wanted to entrust a mission without paying the money. She has been tolerated for a long time. Now that she sees this guy scolding and scolding, she is out of anger, and she immediately pinches. The branch took a step forward.

But Ai Luo reached out his hand and stopped her gently.

"Oh, look at what Mr. Kola said."

Moral kidnapping, emotional debt.

Aylor had only seen this kind of thing in books before. Didn't expect to see a living example now?

It can only be said that this kind of behavior is quite rascal.Obviously he is not arrogant, and he can still come up with all kinds of messy reasons to convince himself that he is right, and thus oppress others.In a way, this kind of cheeky is also a skill.

Looking at this annoyed guy, Airo continued to maintain his commercial smile, and said, "Well, let’s do this. We also hope that the business can be more developed. But at the same time, our guild’s staff is constantly Insufficient, once we encounter any problems with the shortage of manpower, it will appear passive."

Seeing that Airo didn't follow her own words, Kola changed the subject, and immediately became anxious, hurriedly trying to get the conversation back: "What are you talking about? I said you must help our town residents solve the problem! "

Ai Luo was not in a hurry, and continued to laugh: "Don't worry, let me finish. I am a person, I don't like confronting people, I like cooperating with people. So Mr. Kola, please don't be so angry at me. , We are all residents of Pelican Town, there is no need to make each other unhappy about such a small thing. Don’t you just want to destroy this monster so that you can continue to gather herbs? Then why don’t we sign a contract."

Kola: "The contract?"

Napa on the counter side glanced at the barefoot doctor and yawned, "It's starting again."

Ai Luo said with a smile: "Yes, we made 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 a doctor, you cannot be free all day long. Seeing a doctor, right? Although it is the bounden duty of an excellent doctor like you to save the dead and heal the wounded."

After being flattered for a few words, Kola's complexion was obviously lightened.He nodded, and sat down in his seat again: "I didn't say that you are free, but that your price is too expensive! Well, if you talk to me so politely earlier, I won't worry. Then...Five How about a silver coin?"

"Deal!"

In order to prevent this guy from repenting, Ai Luo immediately agreed, but then he added his own terms-

"It's just that the cost of work is too low for five silver coins, and we need to do more than this. In order to make up for it on the other hand, and at the same time, as I said earlier, our guild is not very staffed, so I hope to be able to purchase the medicinal materials that Dr. Kola will collect in the future."

Kola was slightly shocked. He probably didn't expect this aspect at all, and his face was filled with confusion: "You... want to buy the herbs I bought?"

Airo smiled and nodded: "After Mr. Kola collects any medicinal materials from Shining Forest in the future, it must be sent to our guild first, so that our guild can purchase it first. As for the purchase price... it may be better than you. It’s cheaper to come to a big city, but it saves you from the trouble of getting tired of boating. The slightly larger city closest to Pelican Town should be Xiehu City. Even if you ride a horse, it will take two or three days. The time is up. The cheaper ones are deducted from your travel expenses."
