Chapter 36 Witnesses
Shuer was talking about another corner where eight people sat around the sofa, including men and women, most of them wearing hats, and the brim of the hat was pressed very low, only two people who were obviously warriors showed their faces, and they were not worried about being seen at all.
One of them sat in front, holding a strange metal square box in his hand. While putting several different items into the box, he whispered something to the other seven people. The other seven people listened attentively, and even recorded it with pens from time to time.
Not only the seven people, but also a waiter dressed as a waiter standing beside him, listening attentively, just as he was interested in this item.
"Either like, he is just interested in this item." Shuer explained softly, "The boss here also likes to buy some cheap items from another world to decorate this tavern. Do you think this tavern is weird when you look at the surrounding environment?"
"Well, a style I've never seen before." Lisa nodded, "Brother knows where it is?"
"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I heard that in a projection of another world, the tavern is in a similar style." Shuer's eyes swept over the paintings on the wall and sighed, "The shadow chasers actually like taverns of different world styles, so similar places are mostly decorated in the form of other worlds. This is what you see, and the Shaver chassis House on the Rose Capital has been turned into a strange garden, with a fountain and rockery in the middle. The private rooms are made of wooden and connected by corridors. Deer, you are about the same in the McCar Forest."
"There is a tree house over there, which was built after hollowing out the inside of the trunk of the giant tree." Moria nodded in agreement, "It has a very elf style. Some even suspect that there are elfs in other worlds."
"Well, that's right. The Shadow-Chasing Master House always spares no effort to lay out the appearance of the projection in another world. Most of the trophys used are also brought back from the projection. For example, the instrument you just stared at for a long time, we called it a black and white harpsichord, which appeared more than 40 years ago. Of course, the original sample must have not been brought out. The thing is too big and unlikely to bring out, but the design idea was brought out, and it took more than ten years to make the sample and was bought back by the boss here at a high price."
"More than 40 years ago? Then why haven't I met outside?" Lisa asked curiously.
"Because of the failed promotion, the tone of this instrument is different from that of Pavatiga, so it is difficult to be accepted by the public. After persisting for a few years, the investor's businessman went bankrupt and the black and white harpsichords were no longer produced. Now what you see should be one of the few products."
"In addition to these items, even wine, we like to project the wine in the world. Look at the wine cabinet behind the bartender, at least one-fifth of it comes from projections from other worlds, with all kinds of flavors and concentrations. I have even tasted a glass of strong wine that is visually colorless and transparent, with extremely spicy tastes at the mouth. In terms of concentration, it is absolutely stable in the local alcoholic beverages of Pavatiga. And the placement of glasses, do you feel that this is no different from Pavatiga? That's right, because it's really convenient to place it like this, so everyone follows the trend and it becomes like this."
"It's so interesting." Lisa stared at the waiter for a long time, "I want to try it too."
"I haven't grown up, don't even think about it." Knocking Lisa's crazy head, "But it's okay for us to go over and take a look. We have to go there anyway."
When they said it, the four of them quickly approached the bar. The waiter who was wiping the plate looked up and saw a group of people standing in front of him. He was shocked and knew that seeing Shuer was relieved.
"I thought it was the guys who ran in to explore the mystery again." When the four people walked in, the waiter complained to Shuer with a bitter face. "Since Holyfield of the Temple of Wealth last time, the neighbors around him have become more and more curious. They often find ways to sneak in and see what is new, and they don't know where they have such great curiosity."
"The Lord said that curiosity is the most precious wealth given to intelligent creatures by the gods. Only with curiosity can the world continue to develop." Shur said with a holy face, "So don't blame their curiosity, because it is indispensable for every living person. Anyway, they will not have much impact. After a while, curiosity will naturally fade away, so don't worry."
"Eh? Really?" Moria shook her hair habitually, and her eyes shiny, "Then I..."
"You are an exception." Shuer rolled his eyes, "You are not curious, but you are too curious."
"Haha, you are worthy of being a priest, you are still so comfortable." The waiter at the bar nodded, "Long time no see, Mr. Wright, I'm glad to see you again."
"I will be fearless by the Lord's blessing. There will be many opportunities to meet in the future. Boss Calfry, bless you in the name of the Lord, a suitor of honesty and credibility."
The waiter at the bar, that is, the owner of the tavern, was not completely polite. In fact, there was not a chance to see the same shadow-seeker again every time. In the unfamiliar projection of another world, the situation changed rapidly, and no matter how strong a person was, he might die inexplicably, just like the last encounter of Shuer's team. Therefore, being able to meet again is a blessing for both sides.
"These are your teammates, Mr. Wright, I met for the time. I am honored to meet three beautiful ladies. I hope that the three can find their own fun in my tavern." He skillfully brought out three colorful drinks and handed them to the three ladies one by one. "This is my little care, I hope that all three will not refuse."
Looking at the beautiful wine in the cup with eagerness, Lisa secretly observed Shuer's face.
"Ha, it's okay, drink it." Shure said with a smile, "Mr. Caffley is a very meticulous person. The cup I gave you must be juice."
"Mr. Wright knows me." Carvery smiled with satisfaction, "You are here again for five gold coins this time. You should have something to do again. Do you need my help?"
"My friend introduced a business." Xiuer slowly walked to the notice board and looked at it, took a piece of paper and said, "It should be this."
"Well, it turns out that it is her, the matter between the god waiter, why both of you have to solve it through me? Wouldn't it be better for you to negotiate directly in the temple?"
"Haha, Mr. Carver doesn't look like a qualified businessman." Shuer shook his wallet, "With your transaction, you can draw at least fifty gold coins from each side. Which businessman will push the business out like you."
"I'm not a businessman. I'm just a poor person who is curious about the projection world but cannot participate in it personally, and can only envy it." Caffrey sighed in a low voice, "Actually, I think that the commission of three percent is too high, but since the rules have been established, it's hard to change."
"High is indeed a little higher, but there is a periphery of the God of Contract as a witness, which is a psychological comfort to both of us, at least we don't have to doubt each other."
Yes, the owner of the tavern, Calfry was not a believer of Dionysus. His ancestors believed in Dionysus for generations, but in his generation, they changed to the God of Contract and became the peripheral priest of the God of Contract.
In fact, most of the operators of Shadow-Traveler House are peripheral priests of the God of Contract. Only this identity can gain the trust of sensitive and suspicious Shadow-Traveler.
The God of Contract is an impersonal god and a defender of the contract. His priests, whether they are the core priests in the temple or the peripheral priests in the folk, can serve as witnesses and represent the God of Contracts to witness the contract. With his testimony, in powerful people, they dare not violate the contract at will, which is indeed a very reliable insurance.
However, no matter what, fifty gold coins were too many, and the three ladies could hear Shur's crying in his heart.
"That lady said so before. Since Mr. Wright insisted on doing this, I will not shirk it anymore." Caffrey nodded with a reserved smile, "Please sign this contract."
The thin contract is only a few lines, but Shuer reads it very seriously. His experience in his hometown made him very clear about how to set traps on the contract, so he would never miss any word in July.
The contract is very simple, it is nothing more than that Shuer entrusts Cafre as a witness to the transaction. If the transaction is negotiated and completed successfully, Cafre can receive a commission of three percent of the total transaction, with a maximum of no more than 200 and a minimum of no less than fifty gold coins. If the transaction fails or partially fails, the proportion is calculated based on the actual income, and the same is not less than fifty gold coins. If the transaction is not negotiated at all, there is no need to pay a commission.
After reading it several times, Shuer finally signed his name. The moment he signed it, a phantom of a seal appeared above the contract, smashing on the contract, leaving an invisible mark.
"Thank you, patron." Carvery rolled up the contract and handed it to Shuer, "Then, the commission is established, from now on, I will be a witness."
"This is a commission of 200 gold coins." Xiuer reluctantly pushed the wallet over and exchanged it for the contract, "If there are too many, you have to return it."
"Prince Wright." Caffley said with a weird expression, "With your temper, if I guess correctly, here should be... one hundred and ninety-five gold coins."
"Ahem, is that true? Hahaha, by the way, I forgot to take out the hardware coins and pay the admission fee just now." Shuer looked around and said with a dry smile, "It doesn't matter, let's record one hundred and ninety-five gold coins first, refund more and make up more and refund more and make up more and more."
