Chapter 551 You Look Cunning
I was shocked.
Just a hollow bed was sold for five gold coins and twenty silver coins!
This is too.
I touched the hollow bed board, remained silent for a long time, and said, "Shopkeeper, what is this bed made of?"
The shop owner said: "It is made of wood unique to our Moonlight City."
"What effect does it have?"
The shopkeeper said quickly: "It won't deform when soaked in water, and it won't be flammable when burned by fire."
"It has so many strange effects." I nodded, changed my attitude, and said, "But, shopkeeper, if I buy it, I will only use it to sleep."
The shopkeeper tilted his head and said, "It's just for sleeping."
"Then why is it so expensive?"
The shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "Sorry, sir, I don't think the price of this bed is very expensive."
"Please, five gold coins and twenty silver coins, isn't that expensive?"
"Of course," the shop owner said seriously: "Elf products have the same price throughout the Zephyr Continent, and there will never be a situation where one goes down or the other goes down."
I believe what he said, but the price is indeed too expensive.
So, I decided to do Cagalli's job.
However, before I opened my mouth, Cagalli pointed at the hollow bed and said, "Shop owner, I like this very much. Can you help deliver it to my tree house?"
"Of course, I am at your service, ma'am."
At that moment, the store manager asked several clerks to take apart the big bed and carefully place it one by one into a wooden box.
Looking at their swift movements, it doesn't matter if I stop them or not.
At this time, Cagalli walked up to me and whispered: "How about it, Xiaoyi, do you like this big bed?"
I really wanted to say 'I don't like it, it's the price', but judging from Cagalli's tone, she must be very happy, and I couldn't deny her joyful mood. The most important thing is that if it makes her unhappy, She won't make me happy.
"Well." I approached her and said, "The price of five gold coins is not cheap. I'm trying to see if I can bargain."
"Hmm~" Cagalli rolled her eyes and said, "Is it too expensive?"
"Well, a little bit." I said honestly.
"If it's too expensive, we can discuss it," she said with a half-smile, "If you don't hook up with so many girls, you can still choose a cheaper bed if there are only four of you~"
I was speechless at what I said.
Me hooking up with a girl?
How did you figure out that it was me who hooked up with the girl?
It was them who fell in love with me. Well, no, I should say it like this. It was my charm that attracted them, okay?
However, I didn’t dare to talk back to her like this. After all, I did have several fiancées talking about me. Especially since Lilea appeared, Cagalli seemed to think that I was the kind of coquettish young man who likes to hook up with girls. .
Although she was not happy, she loved me after all, so she couldn't drive those girls away and tear up my face, so she simply started to take some small revenge on me in life.
I know her thoughts very well, so I can't argue with her anymore. The only way to calm her inner embarrassment now is to go along with her as much as possible.
Fortunately, I still have a lot of private money. Not to mention buying a bed, I can just buy a house of beds and just bite the bullet.
I smiled and nodded to Cagalli and said, "This bed is very good and beautiful. I like it very much, so I bought it."
Cagalli nodded with satisfaction.
With Cajiali's precedent of buying a bed, the other three girls no longer were reserved and frantically picked out the furniture they liked. As long as it was pleasing to the eye and could fit in the tree house, they bought it directly without asking the price. Anyway, in the end I also paid for it.
At the end of the day, I received a pile of bills that amounted to hundreds of gold coins.
I want to cry but have no tears.
Although I don’t have much private money, it’s still enough to pay these bills.
When I held my private money that Taylor mailed to me in my hand, my heart was bleeding!
Did you create that painful feeling? Can you understand it?
Fortunately, in the end, the proprietress helped me pay half of the money, and I was almost moved to tears.
The landlady just patted my head and said to me in an extremely gentle, yet clearly threatening tone: "You must pamper Barbara more, otherwise, hum hum hum hum."
Four sneers made me shudder. Fortunately, there was no one around, otherwise they would definitely laugh at me.
Especially that guy Billy!
After checking out of the guest room, we packed up our own tree house, put on a soft mattress, and started to separate rooms to rest.
Although Phoenix strongly requested to sleep with me, given that we were still an unmarried couple, sharing the same room might very well lead to some irresistible things happening. Therefore, I was temporarily 'exiled' to another room to rest.
However, another embarrassing situation occurred.
There weren't many rooms available, so I had to share a room with other people.
The girls definitely can't do it. Even if both of us are willing, the fourth girl will force me to give up this idea.
Among the male compatriots, Billy and Gordo sleep in the same room. This pair must not be disturbed. Even if they agree that I sleep with them, I will never agree. God knows what these good friends will do in the middle of the night. What uncomfortable behavior.
Zach and Florence were resting in the same room. They would definitely not agree to my joining as a red lantern.
Now, it's just Jackson and Rocky's room.
But there was no bed in their room, and there were no extra bedding. If I shared a bed with them, I would have to sleep on the sofa. This is what worries me the most.
I protested and asked Cagalli: "Why don't you put an extra bed in the room?"
Cagalli's answer was short, just three words: "I forgot."
This is a very sad thing - I slept on the sofa this night.
Another even sadder thing happened one after another - Emily came to me for discussion again.
However, before the competition, I took the lead in asking her the question I wanted to consult with her yesterday: Can practicing and competing on my own also enhance my own strength?
Emily said lightly: "Yes."
Sure enough, Emily knew about this from the beginning.
I asked her again: "Do you spar and practice often?"
Emily shook her head and said, "No."
Then, she added: "I practice every day."
"What about sparring?" I asked, "Don't you usually find someone to sparring with?"
She shook her head again: "No, I rarely discuss with others."
"Huh?" I was confused: "Why?"
"They can't beat me," Emily said lightly, "I'm afraid of hurting them."
Let me go, this is the answer!
I couldn't help but get a little crazy: "Then you're not afraid of hurting me?"
Emily shook her head again: "Don't be afraid, you look very cunning, you don't look like you will be hurt."
Me: (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
