Chapter 13 Sponsorship

After listening to Paine's words, Old Tom patted his forehead in realization and said, "You are absolutely right! Then how long should I wait before looking for Cinderella?"

Pan En secretly thought that this mandrill was indeed not very smart, but that was okay. If things don't work out, if you sell it to Maria backhand, she will be happy to count the money for you.

"Well~" Pan En pretended to ponder for a moment, "You can go find her in the evening. You should remember what to say! I have told you several times before! No need for me to repeat it again! "

"Remember, remember."

Old Tom nodded hurriedly, "But I still don't quite understand, why do we need to approach Cinderella in this way? It's too troublesome! Can't you just tell her that you have been favored by her mother, and now you can repay her favor?"

"Cinderella was still very young when Mrs. Green died. Cinderella would not know that Mrs. Green was kind to me, so we can only win her trust through roundabout ways."

Paine patiently explained to the stupid mandrill.

"But how do you know she would believe Pigeon's words?"

Old Tom had one problem after another.

Paine found it really tiring to talk to the mandrill.

"Old Tom, why are you asking so many questions? It would be a waste of time to talk about many things from the beginning! In short, the method will work, right? Do you still want to get Maria?"

As soon as these words came out, they finally had some effect, and Old Tom suddenly stopped talking.

"Anyway, if you find Cinderella at night, ask her to come directly to your house to meet us. You can go back to your own house to rest first. I have to buy some other things. By the way, do you have money?"

"money?"

Old Tom blinked in confusion, "What do you want money for?"

"If you want to catch Maria and her daughter, you have to catch their painful feet first. They don't want Cinderella to attend the ball for a deep-seated reason. So our first step is to help Cinderella go to the ball. You always We can't let her go to the prom in such a disgraced state, right? How can she go to the prom without a beautiful dress, jewelry, and dancing shoes? Doesn't it cost money to buy these things? I don't have that much money with me. Let me borrow some from you first. Wait, what’s your expression like that? When we get Maria, she will have enough money to pay you back!”

That's right, Paine's idea is to replace the original Hazel Mother to help Cinderella attend the ball. So of course he needs to take care of the gold and silver dresses and jewelry, and the crystal dance shoes. To get these, of course money.

"I understand, I do still have some money here, but it may not be enough to buy a decent outfit."

Old Tom took out a money bag from his clothes and handed it to Paine.

Paine shook the weight of the money bag and took out a handful of silver flake coins.

"That's it? That's really not enough."

Old Tom was so intimidated by Paine's previous gesture that he smashed the soup bowl into pieces that he didn't dare to say anything. He just smiled to ease the embarrassment.

"Forget it, tell me where there is a clothing store or tailor shop here? If you don't have enough money, I will find a way."

Old Tom thought for a moment and said: "There are many ready-made clothing shops in the village, which are full of ready-made dresses, and there are also some high-end styles. You can go there to buy them."

"Well, so which store owners are ordinary people?"
