Chapter 1311 Manpower
When great nobles give gifts, they either ask for something or repay a favor.
I don’t know if Duke Swift belongs to the former, the latter, or both.
However, no matter what the situation is, it means one thing: I am still useful and valuable in his eyes.
Just like he is to me.
"Not bad." I smiled, handed the land deed back to Lilea, and said: "Those pieces of land are very good, with strong connections and constant contacts. It is a good place for a coffee shop. However, I don't quite understand how there is such a thing." Rogue perverts hang out in places like that.”
Lillea curled her lips and said: "There will definitely be. There is turmoil in Airei City, and quite a few people have fled here. They have no money, no ability, and are afraid of being tired, so they can only wander around. See me and Catwoman. Looking around the area, looking like a tourist, coupled with our natural beauty, it is natural to have evil intentions.”
"This is a bit like a fire in the city, which has affected the fish in the pond." I couldn't help but said: "I didn't expect that the turmoil in Airui City would invisibly disrupt the folk customs of Dashai City."
"Who says it's not the case!" Cagalli, who was sitting next to her, said unhappily: "In the past, the people of Dashai City were simple and honest. They didn't pick up lost items on the road and didn't close their homes at night. But things are better now. Thefts happen frequently and robberies continue one after another. Many old people lament the world's customs. Sunshine, but the truth is, it was precisely because of the obstruction of those misbehaving humans that the order and morality were disrupted!"
"Don't say it so harshly," Yura said: "Thieves and robbers are indeed hateful, but the real reason why they come here is also because of the chaos in Airui City. Seriously, the source of all this is precisely The city lord who did nothing, and his two sons who messed around."
"Yes, I just remembered something." Cagalli pinched her waist and said, "Noble lady, you seem to be related to the lord's family of Dashai City?"
"Don't blame me. We are just cousins." Yura shrugged and said, "And we almost never interact with each other."
Seeing Cagalli and Yula constantly bickering, and Lillea standing around and watching with excitement, not helping each other, just watching the fun, I felt so helpless.
Fortunately, Phoenix was well-behaved. She sat quietly on the other side of Barbara, like a mother, gently patting Barbara's body and singing lullabies in a low voice.
Phoenix's lullaby sounds very ancient and very flavorful. She once told me that this lullaby was sung to her by her master. When she was young, she was afraid of the dark and could not sleep well, so every time her master came When night fell, he would sing lullabies to her softly. As she listened, her heart felt at ease, and as she listened, she fell asleep.
When it comes to Fenghuang's master, I usually never mention it unless necessary - for fear of making her sad.
According to Phoenix, her master went into the dungeon and never came back.
In my opinion, her master probably encountered an accident and was buried in the underground city, so he left such a cute and well-behaved apprentice and never came back.
However, Phoenix told me that her master was very powerful and could not be defeated by the monsters in the dungeon.
Since she said that, I can't refute it. The best way is to believe that her master Ji Ren has his own destiny. He didn't die in the dungeon, but cleared the dungeon and went to where he wanted to go. place, I just couldn’t find a way to get back for the moment.
Back to business, have a good night’s sleep.
Early the next morning, a group of us, accompanied by Barbara who had regained her strength, went to the place where we had not finished the inspection yesterday and continued the inspection.
After many suggestions, Barbara finally decided to build a big coffee shop on the busiest street corner.
When she said this, her eyes lit up, and symbols of gold coins kept flying out of her eyes.
After that, she looked at the landlady eagerly and said with a flattering look on her face: "Auntie, what do you think of this place?"
The landlady hugged her and said domineeringly: "It's okay."
"Right, right~" Barbara said: "I want to open another cafe here, you see~~~"
"If you have anything to say, please tell me!" The landlady knew Barbara's character very well. She had watched this little girl grow up.
"Hey~" Barbara said like a well-behaved little cat girl: "I need funds and manpower."
"If we don't give you the funds," the landlady said, "I can't give you the manpower, you can go find your fiancé."
She put the blame on my head very domineeringly.
"Xiaoyi!" Barbara held her arms and instantly returned to her queenly appearance: "I want to open a cafe here, you can do whatever you want!"
Everyone was surprised to see Barbara's change of expression so quickly, and then they couldn't stop snickering.
I'm really ashamed, but she is my fiancée after all, so I can be as arrogant as she is. As long as it's not nonsense, I can say anything.
So, without changing my expression, I nodded and said, "Then let's open a cafe. You can ask Master Dewey for funds and so on. As for the manpower, I will find a way."
After hearing this, Barbara was very satisfied and happily asked Master Dewey for money.
Speaking of which, among the guys I know, who is suitable for the role of a cafe worker?
It's impossible for the goblins. Although they are absolutely loyal to me, if the dealers let them run the cafe, they will definitely set the price to an unacceptable level, and they will also charge tips from every customer who drinks coffee.
Dwarves certainly can't do it. They are born warriors, born craftsmen, and born master builders, but they are not suitable for running cafes.
Then the only ones left are humans, elves and goblins.
Neither can the Fairy Tribe. Let’s not talk about whether the Fairy Queen can agree to it, but I can’t pass this test.
The current situation is turbulent and tense. God knows whether Akahavi's minions have reached this town. If the goblin sent suddenly disappears, who should I ask for explanation?
Then only humans and elves are left.
The words of the human race
I suddenly remembered a chubby round face and a cute and naughty smile.
By the way, it's her, if you can find her, try to convince her!
After making up my mind, I set off immediately, took the magic airship and went to Airui City.
The reason why I'm so anxious is because I have to watch a game in the afternoon, Moonlight City Rose Legion versus York Han City Silver Wings Guild.
I have always felt that the battle between Rose Legion and Silver Wing Guild was nothing to watch. How can a guild that has lost its president turn the world upside down?
However, the Elf Queen said that you should come. After all, you are the elder of Moonlight City. It is not good to be absent all the time.
Since I promised the Elf Queen, I couldn't break my promise, so I rushed to the city of Airei in a hurry.
After getting off the magic airship, I immediately rushed to the adventurer base.
I entered the base and searched around, but I couldn't find the foodie girl, so I asked people about it, and then I found out that the foodie girl was fired three days ago because of a dispute with a rogue adventurer.
I used money to find out her address in Airui City. I ran over quickly. When I got there, I knocked hard on the door a few times. A very unhappy voice came from the room: "Who is it? It's so early in the morning. Let no one sleep!"
