The World of Deities Chapter 5: Bargaining


  In the autumn garden, there are occasional leaves falling.

   Across the discharge gate, Su Ye saw a middle-aged man in a white robe lying on a light brown inclined bed, leisurely flipping through a tawny papyrus book, occasionally broken pieces of papyrus falling off , The maid next to her carefully picked it away.

   Su Ye's nose moved lightly, the tea fragrance was faint, and his eyes fell on the teapot on the table, unlike what Greece should have in this era.

  The middle-aged foreman walked over and whispered beside Kelton.

   Kelton raised his head, handed the papyrus book to the maid who was wearing it, and looked at Su Ye quietly, with a faint warmth in his brown pupils.

   Su Ye met Kelton's gaze without fear.

   Most of the Greeks at this time were small and thin, but Kelton’s appearance was as tall and strong as a Greek statue, with sunken eye sockets, deep gaze, straight nose, and black curly hair, enough to be an excellent sculpture model.

   Su Ye stared at Kelton's left ring finger suddenly. The silver double snake title ruby ​​ring was particularly eye-catching. The moment he saw it, his eyes even tingled slightly.

   It was not the big ruby ​​that made Su Ye's eyes sting, but one of the eyes of two snake heads and four emeralds.

  Kelton did not get up, and said with nostalgia: "I have heard about your parents, and I am deeply sorry. Your parents are real craftsmen, and I like eating your father’s bread the most. If you Need help, as long as I can do it, I will not refuse."

   Su Ye felt that when Kelton was speaking, his eyes quickly swept across his body.

   "I don't need help." Su Ye raised his head appropriately, showing very stubbornly.

  Kelton got up slowly, sat upright on the inclined bed, smiled kindly, and said: "Then what do you want?"

   Su Ye sighed softly and said: "I had a dream since I was a child, to become a great magician and use magic to make the world a better place. Later, my parents ran out of wealth and sent me to Plato Academy. Now, someone took advantage of the death of my parents and robbed my house. As a result, I may not be able to continue school at Plato Academy and become a magician. Therefore, I am looking for you to make a deal to let me continue my studies."

   "What deal?" Kelton's expression moved slightly.

   Huck, who originally looked up at the sky, turned his head to look at Su Ye, as if he was about to meet the child again.

   "A deal that can make Dolphin River famous, may even spread your name throughout Greece and the world." Su Yedao.

   "Is it a fame or notoriety?" Kelton stood up, still smiling, but the silver warrior's powerful aura spread silently.

   Su Ye suddenly had an illusion that Kelton in front of him turned into a ten-meter-tall giant with a grinning smile.

   "I have the food recipe left by my parents!" Su Ye said solemnly, with a slight sadness in his voice, his eyes drooping slightly, and the focus of his sight moved from Kelton to the lower table.

  On the road, Su Ye thought about this action dozens of times.

   Kelton was taken aback for a moment, condensed his breath, nodded, and said: "Go on."

   Su Ye shook his head and said: "I don't want to say too much. In short, I have a gourmet recipe carefully researched by my parents, which is worth 10,000 gold, but I am willing to sell it at the price of one thousand gold Zeus today."

  Kelton looked at Su Ye, smiling silently.

   He turned over his right hand, and a golden coin was lying on the palm of his hand, with a majestic and vague face carved on the front, Zeus, the king of the gods.

   With a flick of his thumb, the gold coins fluttered in the air, making a buzzing sound, and the golden light flashed randomly, and finally fell back to the palm of his hand with the back facing upwards.

   "The golden eagle is always so charming." Kelton said.

On the back of the    gold coin is engraved with a fluttering eagle. This is the favorite animal of Zeus, and it is also the history of Zeus.

   On general occasions, the Greeks call gold coins the Golden Eagle, and on formal occasions, they call it Golden Zeus.

   This involves a legend of gods.

   In the legend, the Greek gods set three kinds of coins, but they were arguing about whose head they were used.

   Later, Athena said that gold coins are the most noble and should be engraved with the head of the king of gods. This makes Zeus very happy.

   Then Athena said again that silver coins are second only to gold coins. Except for Hera, no one can be second only to Zeus. Hera was also very happy.

   Then Athena asked, the nobles would never touch cheap copper coins. Copper coins are destined to circulate in the lower layer and in the mud. Even slaves can use them. Which master **** is willing to be touched by slaves?

  The highest status lord gods all gave up the fight. Their original goal was gold and silver coins. In the end, Athena's head appeared on the copper coin, and her beloved spiritual creature, the owl, appeared on the back.

   The Goddess of Wisdom did not deceive, and the final result is just as she said, copper coins circulate among the people at the bottom, some nobles even never touch copper coins for life, but this also makes the name of Athena the most popular among the people at the bottom .

   Many people do not believe this legend.

   One golden eagle coin is enough to buy a sheep. Fifty golden eagle coins can buy any dwelling in the slums of Athens. Back then, Kelton bought this land and built the Dolphin River restaurant, which cost only two thousand gold in total. Eagle coins.

   "I said that this kind of gourmet recipe will surely spread through the ages, and even make your name famous." Su Ye looked at Kelton~IndoMTL.com~ with firm eyes.

  Kelton stared at Su Ye's eyes, staring stubbornly.

   The middle-aged foreman by the side of    had his mouth slightly turned up, and a slight mockery appeared on his face, but suddenly his complexion changed and he hurriedly approached Kelton and whispered in his ear: "Sir, his The reason why parents sold their old shops and borrowed money to exchange for larger shops, is it because they mastered this kind of gourmet recipe?"

   Kelton nodded slightly. He had thought of this possibility a long time ago.

  Kelton asked: "What kind of gourmet recipe is that?"

   Su Ye firmly said: "My recipe can add another dish to the dinner table in Greece and even the world."

   "Congratulations, you have completed your dream of changing the world with magic ahead of time." Kelton's face was full of enthusiasm.

  The middle-aged foreman and the maid chuckled softly, very cooperatively.

   Huck did not smile.

   Su Ye didn't smile either.

   "I'll make a price, you bargain." Su Ye looked up at the tall Kelton.

   "Ten golden eagles." Kelton still smiled.

  Su Ye was taken aback, looked around with confused eyes, puzzled: "There is a miser Mr. Kelton in the workshop area? Did I come to the wrong place?"

  The middle-aged foreman and maid frowned slightly.

  Kelton looked at Su Ye and said nothing.

   Su Ye looked straight and continued: "I am here not because I heard that Mr. Kelton is generous, not because you are rich, not because you are kind, not because you are cheating. I heard that you are one of the most intelligent people in the workshop area and one of the longest-sighted."

   "I will try to get rid of'one.'" Kelton smiled confidently.

   Su Ye continued: "Do you think Dean Plato will visit the Dolphin River?"
