*****In the shopping street in the civilian area of the sea-connected city****
Zhang Youji, who caused a commotion in an open space in a shopping street because of money issues, and Cuiyin met unexpectedly again. After being in a daze for a while, Cuiyin was the first to react. After hearing the commotion, the guards Before they arrived, they immediately pulled Zhang Youji away from the scene, and quickly came to the corner of the wall between two nearby stores in the shopping street, and asked Zhang Youji about what happened.
Then, after hearing what happened, Cuiyin expressed her feelings with a speechless expression, looking at Zhang Youji, who was in a state of regret after getting down to business, with her eyes wandering around.
[Woo..., are you a child? I don't know what to say to you because you made a big fuss because you didn't buy the food you wanted, and you destroyed a piece of land in the shopping district where a house was going to be built. 】
【However, I was really unwilling at that time! Food resentment is huge! 】
[Just because a bowl of clam soup costs two large copper coins, are you really embarrassed to say that? ! And in the end, the result is still your fault, right? ! Why not go to the gold exchange place first and exchange the gold coins? ! 】
[Because I don’t know where I can change money? ! If I knew, I would have gone to change the money long ago! 】
[Are you the young master who has never seen an accident somewhere? ! Why don’t you even know the most basic common sense? ! 】
After Cuiyin listened to Zhang Youji's explanation and finished speaking her thoughts while covering her head, Zhang Youji immediately shouted loudly and unwillingly. Cuiyin, who was initially a little dumbfounded by Zhang Youji, couldn't help but subconsciously I quarreled with him directly, which attracted the attention of many passers-by who happened to pass by and came back to see what was going on out of curiosity, as well as the confused looks of the guards who came over to investigate because of the commotion Zhang Youji had caused.
As for Cuiyin, who looked away from Zhang Youji a little and quickly discovered this, she immediately covered Zhang Youji's mouth, who wanted to say something, and pulled him away again, heading towards Other places in the shopping street were far away from the place where riots broke out because of Zhang Youji, and there were many people who came to watch after the incident, and guards who were investigating the incident.
Soon afterwards, Cuiyin and Zhang Youji came to one of the shopping streets. They found a free seat in a restaurant selling various seafood dishes and sat down. After simply ordering a few dishes, Cuiyin wanted to discuss something with Zhang Youji.
However, Zhang Youji, who was complaining about food problems, now only wanted to satisfy his appetite. Therefore, Cuiyin, who saw this, had no choice but to wait until Zhang Youji finished eating before talking to him.
Although the way of paying for the food in this seafood restaurant made Cuiyin sigh again, after all, because the money Zhang Youji currently holds is almost all gold coins, and the store cannot find it, so Cuiyin has no choice but to pay for it. No, he sighed and paid for the meal with his own money. While drinking the seafood soup he got, he watched Zhang Youji order the dishes at a very fast speed, except for the bowl Cuiyin held in her own hand. Except for the seafood soup, everything was eaten cleanly, and I couldn't help but start to have a headache again.
[Phew~, I’m satisfied. It’s indeed the beach. These seafood are so fresh. 】
[Ugh..., although the price is only about 2 silver coins, Zhang Youji, you are really not polite at all. Why did I, who paid for the treat, end up with only 1 bowl of leftover soup, while you gave it to me? Are you going to grab all the food and eat it all? And you even chewed up the fish bones without caring! 】
【Do you want money? I have a lot of gold coins here. Here they are for you. 】
【No! Don't just grab a bunch of gold coins from your waist so easily! And it’s not about money! Put the gold coins in your hand back quickly! Oh, it's so annoying. Why does my head hurt so much when I was just out to relax? 】
When Cuiyin looked at Zhang Youji, who was wiping his mouth after eating, and asked her question with a headache, she reached out to the Almighty Book hanging on her waist because of Zhang Youji's casualness, and took out a handful of gold coins. , this was an eye-catching casual behavior while answering, and I couldn't help but bother to preach to Zhang Youji again. I covered my head, made up my mind to change the topic quickly, and told Zhang Youji about other things again. .
[Hey, let’s put the other things aside for now. Now let’s talk about the trouble you caused before and how you plan to solve it? Let me start by saying that I am an adventurer. Although I have a more liberal position than the knights and guards of the country, I still have a responsibility that cannot be ignored by criminals. 】
[I just smashed the ground randomly because I was unwilling to do so. It is really rude to treat people as criminals like this. 】
[···, completely destroying other people’s planned building sites, and scaring nearby people, thus causing riots. This is already an undisputed crime. However, considering the seriousness of the matter, this is a serious crime for some people. For people who have money, especially for people like you who can easily take out dozens of gold coins, it is not a big deal. The most serious thing is to hand over twice the price of the land. It's just a compensation of about 100%, plus a few days in jail to reflect. 】
[Hmm, because I don’t know about land prices and other things, I will give you the money first. Is 5,000 gold coins enough? 】
【Don’t leave it to me! The crystal coins you gave me before have already given me a headache! And don’t act like you’re going to pour out your money here! Ah, no, I accidentally shouted it out loud... Anyway, it's too eye-catching. Let's go first, let's talk as we go. 】
When Cuiyin patiently explained some of the adventurer's responsibilities to Zhang Youji patiently, and heard his unconscious and casual answers, although Cuiyin's initial intention was to endure what she really wanted to say If she wanted to, she would give priority to telling Zhang Youji some necessary things, but Zhang Youji’s next behavior made Cuiyin’s previous decision to tolerate complaints and other things immediately disappear. In an instant, she turned towards Zhang Youji, who was about to cause chaos again, She shouted desperately to attract the attention of the surrounding guests. Cuiyin, who discovered this, had to pull Zhang Youji out of the seafood restaurant again.
After all, Cuiyin, who was already suffering from headaches, didn't want to add more trouble, so she decided to make a more eye-catching act in Zhang Youji. In a sense, she might even be reported and caught by the guards. Before that, I pulled him away from the seafood restaurant, planning to choose a road with fewer people, and continue to talk to Zhang Youji about the next thing while walking along the road.
[You are a person who feels uncomfortable all over without causing anything? ! You commotion and chaos-making walking machine! 】
【Why? ! I shouldn't have done anything wrong just now, right? ! And the most eye-catching thing is your shouting, right? ! 】
[Sigh, I don’t deny this, but what you are about to do next is something that will cause chaos. Who would want to pour out thousands of gold coins in that kind of place? If the guards are attracted, your previous behavior that caused the riot may be exposed immediately. In this case, I, who protected you at the time, will also be guilty of the same crime, and I will be punished even more severely for knowingly committing the crime. , I don’t want to go to jail with you. 】
[Um..., I'm really sorry about that, but it should be able to be solved with gold coins by then, right? Wouldn't it be better to just throw the gold coins for 2 people over? Rather than worrying about that kind of thing, it is more important for me now to find a place to exchange money and solve the problem of getting lost and return to the hotel. 】
[Ugh, it turns out you got lost alone again... 】
When Cuiyin, who was walking side by side with Zhang Youji, complained to him and patiently explained certain things again, Cuiyin said something casually because Zhang Youji looked a little apologetic. He couldn't help but feel dizzy, and he started to cover his head and asked Zhang Youji, who had almost no common sense in front of him, a question from the bottom of his heart.
【······Seriously, who are you? Not caring about money, squandering thousands of gold coins at will, and giving away epic weapons at will. This is something that even ordinary nobles or rich people cannot do, but if you are a royal or something like that, your Your behavior is not consistent with that status, but if you are a descendant of a hero or something, or]
【That is? ! The uncle who used to sell clam soup! Cuiyin! Help find these gold coins! 】
[Listen to what someone is saying? ! I am asking you something very seriously! And why don’t you suddenly grab a bunch of gold coins? ! Ah~! Really! I'll treat you as much as you want! Here you go, 2 silver coins are probably enough! So hurry up and put away the gold coins you are holding! Don't always do such eye-catching behavior on the street! 】
[Hmm, thanks, then I’ll go shopping first! This money will be returned to you when I find the gold coins. Ah, by the way, if you can take me to a place where I can exchange gold later, that would be a big help. 】
When Cuiyin asked Zhang Youji seriously from the bottom of her heart, Zhang Youji saw a familiar stall from before and suddenly interrupted Cuiyin's words and grabbed a handful of gold coins from the Almighty Book on his waist. He shouted, causing Cuiyin, who had already suffered from a headache, to stop his behavior in a hurry, and dismissed Zhang Youji's affairs as quickly as possible and with some abandonment, watching as he turned around and said something, while happily walking towards Zhang Youji, who ran to a certain stall, expressed his feelings alone on the spot.
[·······Although I want to leave now, I can’t leave this troublemaker alone, otherwise I don’t know what other things he will do. After all, we can barely be considered friends, so we can’t watch it. Just leave him alone. Alas, let's quickly put this guy Zhang Youji back to his companions. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to live in peace. 】
Looking at Zhang Youji's back like this and sighing, after finishing some conclusions, Cuiyin, a kind-hearted and good-hearted person, was doing her best. In a sense, it was a very heroic spiritual awakening, and not long after, After drinking clam soup at the stall, Zhang Youji returned to her side and started walking together in the shopping street.
Although Cuiyin’s original intention was to take Zhang Youji to the money exchange opposite the Adventurer’s Guild in the civilian area of this city connected to the sea. After Zhang Youji finished exchanging money, she would ask him about the hotel where he was staying and stuff him back. to his companions.
But unfortunately, because Zhang Youji was very curious when he first came to this place, which can be called a holiday island, he wandered around and took a walk, which made Cuiyin have to go everywhere with him, and did not go to the gold exchange place at all. , until around 12 noon, when Zhang Youji suddenly thought about whether he should go back to the hotel where he was staying first, Cuiyin showed a relieved expression and asked the name of the hotel where he was staying.
But what is even more regrettable is that Cuiyin never thought in her dreams that Zhang Youji was a [neighbor] and a resident of [Shu Xin Pavilion]. At this time, Lian Hou wanted to discuss with Zhang Youji about the crystal he had given him before. Cuiyin, who had completely forgotten about things like coins, the incident he caused the commotion, and what to do because of this news, could not help but subconsciously think that she might temporarily become Zhang Youji's nanny, with this kind of mental fatigue, led Zhang Youji back to Shuxin Pavilion.
