Vol 2 Chapter 2: Not knowing

In the evening, the convoy finally reached a small village.
Clarice jumped out of the car and shouted at Todd, "I'll ask someone to fix the roof and send out some leaflets. Look at this kid, don't let him run away. He is worth twenty gold Witt, if he runs away, I'll deduct from your salary! "
Todd replied in a sullen voice: "Yes, Master."
"Shut up, don't call me grown-up, I'm poor!" Clarice left angrily.
She was really angry, because God sent her a worthless guy.
This guy, who claims to be Fink, doesn't even have a copper vet on his body.
It's so annoying.
However, it is rare that this is also a silly boy, without any intention to bargain. God knows that she can make such a price to lower the price of the other party. To know that there are too many rogues in the world who have broken others' things and refused to pay compensation, they always try their best to deny and refuse to admit the facts, so you must first raise the price and give the other party a price. It is possible to get normal compensation.
However, the young man's generosity was quickly realized by the head of the city council that this was a "oppressive stupid boy". Since God did not drop her gold coins, she could regard this as a labor given to her by God.
People always have to make inroads, not to mention that the young man did something that was "very stupid" in her opinion.
So before leaving, Clarice instructed the girls to give all the work to the dark-haired boy. Although the girls were very reluctant to arrive, Clarice did not care whether he was handsome or not to be a reason for avoiding hard labor.
After the team stopped, there was a lot of work to do. They had to set up the stage, prepare for the show, and cook a fire.
Since the troupe's living conditions are poor and there is no special cook, the girls are always responsible for cooking.
Today is Ranty, the little girl in the dress is responsible for cooking.
"Girls shouldn't be dyed by fireworks to their beauty, let me do this kind of thing." Xiu Yi said to Lanti with a smile.
"Forget it." Ran Dingding started chopping vegetables: "The leader is not here, you don't have to do anything. Isn't it just breaking a roof? It costs less than twenty Jinweit so much money. I estimate it is two at most A Jinweit can solve all the problems. The head of the team is a bit too much for you, but you are also blamed for your badness. You should n’t have promised as much as she said. "
"It's okay, but how to say, I've left you frozen, and it's always a bit sad. Besides, I don't lack this money."
"Really?" Randy stared at him with a pair of wonderful eyes.
This makes Xi a little awkward: "I mean, I thought I brought enough money out, but in fact there are always things out of my control."
"So you can only accept the head's price by gritting your teeth now? Are you sorry?"
"I honestly don't mind doing something for you as compensation, so I don't need to regret it." Xiu Yi laughed.
"Oh, since you are willing to help, please help me deal with the dishes on the side. I mean, if you can do it, it doesn't matter if you can't do it. Anyway, you ca n’t eat it. In fact, you should n’t take it. Out of those weird things, otherwise the head may not be so angry. "
In order to make up for Clarice's loss, Xiu specially brought her a few precious potions. Unfortunately, good things are not known to everyone. A bottle can sell at least hundreds of precious potions of King Witt in the market. In the eyes of Clarice, it is no different from a bottle of clear water.
She was angry that not only did God not give her a of wealth, but also gave her a liar. That's why I decided to let Xiu Yi work to make up for the loss, and at the same time educate the kid to let him know that cheating is immoral.
This makes Xiu Yi helpless.
Those medicines with good healing effects, because the girls are not sick or painful, can not show their value. Auxiliary potions are basically used for magicians and warriors. It does not make sense for ordinary people to use them. As for the stagnant potions, the effects are not immediately visible, and they can be seen immediately. Those cursed potions and poisons.
Considering that the girls did not make any serious mistakes, he really did not want them to try the "live and die" taste.
As for the seeds of the magic plant, Xiuyi wondered if he would throw it out as a stone immediately if he took it out.
He still has some magic swords that can sell some money, and he doesn't worry about Clarice not knowing the goods, but the problem is that his body obviously cannot put such a large object, and the appearance of the ring will undoubtedly expose the existence of the ring, and the sword is a weapon It will scare these girls.
He carried all the wealth of Purgatory Island, but they were books, medicine, weapons, energy spar, magic gemstones, etc., either they could not prove their value, or they could not appear in front of others at all. Perhaps the only thing that could make Clarice's value was that of Hines's staff, women were always very sensitive to gems.
But he was very doubtful if he had given the staff to Clarice, would this woman have slid away all the gems on the staff before throwing it away.
That's a gimmick.
For most ordinary people, don't talk about the staff, even the magician is just a legend. They never had a chance to see it, and they did not think that the person who fell from the sky could become a "magician".
Especially this young man is still so young and does not show any pride of the magician and his appropriate age.
Everyone knows that big men are always very proud, especially those rare magicians in the world.
If Clarice asks for compensation, Xiu Yi still uses the arrogant "You dare to ask a magician for money?" Attitude, then considering the fact that he fell from the sky, maybe Clarice will shut up immediately. But Xiupai Xiu did not show that arrogance, he immediately accepted the claim for compensation.
Because of this, when Xiu said he had no money and tried to pay for the medicine, Clarice was so polite to decide to recruit Xiu.
She would never believe that a magician would be so polite, no matter how he fell from the sky, he could not be a magician.
Even if he is a magician, he is just a "bully magician."
This is what Clarice knows.
At this moment, Randy said, Xiu Yi smiled with a touch of his nose and said, "If I say that I am a rich country, you will not believe it."
"Everyone has the right to dream." The little girl replied easily.
Well, let's cook honestly.
The Violet Song and Dance Troupe has about thirty people, mainly women, and less than a third are men.
The entire song and dance troupe has a total of five carriages, a truck, and those performance props, which is almost the entire industry of the song and dance troupe.
In addition to the head of Clarice, there is also a steward named Alec Binny, who is mainly responsible for arranging the size of the song and dance troupe, and a foreign clerk, which is mainly responsible for contacting theaters around the country to negotiate the cost of renting venues. However, this kind of performance of rented venues is generally only performed in large cities. If you go to a small place, the song and dance troupe will simply be simple, and now set up a performance shed.
In contrast, although the cost of renting venues in large cities is high, there are many nobles there, and there are more people who can afford to watch performances. The income of the song and dance troupe will also increase than usual, so for the song and dance troupe, City performances have always been their favorite. Unfortunately, many high-end venues will not allow small song and dance troupes to enter, which makes Clarice often rely on some scattered performances to maintain expenses.
Therefore, whenever they went to the place, they would immediately set up a stage to perform, and the head of the group and foreign clerks went to run business and pull guests.
When Clarice returned, she had already distributed the flyers and brought a few locals to repair the roof. She negotiated with the locals for half a day's price, and finally got it with one gold vet and eighty silver vets.
As soon as she came back, she said, "Oh, that little boy is still there? That's good, tell me what work you have arranged for him? Don't try to fool me, I know you can't walk the way you see a beautiful boy. You, answer me. "
Toot, the strong-headed driver, replied, "I saw him cook, did some moving work, and flirted with Ranti."
"Landy!" Clarice screamed.
Randi slammed Todd's face in a rage with a towel and shouted, "Todd, you bastard, I didn't expect that a fool like you would be playing tricks!"
Todd touched his face and smiled sillyly: "Mom said that a stupid person is not a good person."
Xiu Yi looked at the ridiculous scene in front of her, only feeling interesting.
In those days on Purgatory Island, he had to live a life of embarrassment every day and speak carefully. He must be careful to avoid Hines's eyes everywhere, and he must think twice about everything.
Now, in this cabaret company, what he sees is the natural relationship between people.
They can laugh and scold loudly, talk at will, there is no difference between them, and everyone lives together equally.
This is really enviable.
Maybe this kind of life has always been what she wants to get rid of for Clarice, but for Xiuyi, this kind of life is exactly the most coveted in these years. Maybe it won't be long before he will get bored, but at least now He likes it very much.
After playing around, Clarice asked Landy: "My Landy baby, what shall we eat today?"
Randy replied weakly: "Stir-fried mountain greens, big ear pine nuts, oh, and some tomato juice and Roma soup left at noon."
"It sounds really appetizing."
"It's winter, and we don't have much money," Lanty replied helplessly.
Clarice clenched her fists: "Well then, eat these. Let everyone eat quickly, and then make money ... I hope there are more guests today."
Looking at the current dilemma of the song and dance ensemble, Xiu Yi could not help but finally said, "Chair of Clarice, in fact, even in winter, there can be a lot of rich raw materials for processing into food, and there is no need to spend money."
Xiuyi's words not only made Clarice bewildered, but other girls also looked at Xiuyi together.
Clarice glanced at Xiuyi, confirming that he was not joking, and asked in confusion: "Are you sure we can find other food?"
"Yes, Clarice, I noticed that there are some wild mushrooms growing on the outskirts of this village. Even in winter, they still grow well, and they are in pieces and easy to pick."
"But mushrooms are poisonous and cannot be eaten!"
"Yes, Clarice, but not every mushroom is poisonous, and most importantly, the toxins of the mushrooms are not impossible to remove. In fact, it is not difficult."
"You mean you can get rid of the poison of those mushrooms?" Clarice's eyes widened in surprise, she couldn't imagine this little boy could do it.
Xiu Yi nodded: "Yes, I have seen that kind of mushroom. I have the absolute certainty that you can enjoy its deliciousness without worrying about poisoning."
"How can I trust you? I think you're likely to kill us all and run away by yourself," Clarice yelled.
Xiuyi said helplessly: "You can't believe me, but I just want to help you, by the way I make up for the loss I have caused you. Don't forget that I will also eat those mushrooms."
Clarice held her hand to look at Xiuyi, looked for a while before saying:
"No one here makes mushrooms."
"I will." Xiu Yi smiled. "And I am confident that I have done well."
"Are you proficient in cooking?"
"You can try my dishes first."
Randy brought a pot of mountain greens made by Xiuyi to Clarice.
Clarice picked up one with her slim fingers and tasted, her eyes stared round, then she exclaimed: "It's a pretty good job, oh Fink, you are a wonderful cook!"
Randy also laughed: "I think he can try."
"Well then, let him eat first when done." Clarice nodded in agreement.
That evening, members of the song and dance troupe enjoyed a meal of mushroom feasts made by Xiu Yi himself. Although at the beginning everyone was careful not to dare to speak, but when they saw Xiu Yi eating and eating nothing, they finally let go of their concerns.
They were quickly intoxicated by the delicious taste of mushrooms.
This evening became the best meal the Song and Dance Troupe has enjoyed since its establishment. In the words of Clarice: "Even aristocrats can never eat so many and delicious foods, we have become the most delicious Happy people. "
She's not really demanding.
Her eyes finally looked different to Xiuyi.
At that time, Xiuyi said to Clarice, "I will sell a few bottles of potion that I have with me after entering the city, and then give you the money owed to you. As for now, I don't mind helping you I apologize for what I can do, such as cooking from today. Think of it as ... car money and interest. "
Clarice agreed without hesitation.
For the sake of food, she hoped that Xiu Yi could not pay for it, and she did not think that the bottles of Xiu Yi's potion could sell for a good price.
