Metz can swear to heaven that he has never had such a delicious breakfast in his life.

Although it is just some very ordinary white bread, beef and vegetable thick soup placed on the old wooden table in front of you, it is almost already compared with the days before eating dried meat and drinking cold spring water It is comparable to the deliciousness of Royal Palace cuisine.

"Praise the great Holy Spirit, thank you Holy Spirit for giving us food ..."

This may be Metz's most religious prayer before a meal, but before he could express his gratitude, a voice came.

"I did n’t expect you, Mr. Metz, to be a believer."

After hearing this sentence, Metz hurriedly eyes opened, then he saw Rhodes and Leiya went down the stairs and came to sit in front of him. youngster is still a calm expression, and he really can't see whether he is ironic or saying truth, so Fat Merchant can only smile awkwardly.

"This ... There is always a sense of gratitude for food, and it has nothing to do with believers or unbelievers ..."

Speaking of this, Fat Merchant obviously did not intend to get tangled up with such boring things, so he quickly changed the subject.

"Next, what are your plans?"

Facing Fat Merchant's inquiry, Rhodes did not immediately answer. He first waved for two breakfasts, which was started talking.

"How about Mr. Metz?"

"Me?"

After hearing Rhodes''s inquiry, Metz froze for a moment, and then dropped his shoulders in despair.

"In my case, I have to go to Deep Rock City to apologize to the consignee first, and then compensate them for their loss. Hey, this time it was unlucky, not only lost the goods, but also a lot of money. It's really not good ... ""

"Yes, sorry ..."

I heard here, but Leiya was apologetic, which is no wonder. After all, her Mercenary Group is responsible for protecting the merchant and his goods. Now that the goods have been lost, it can be said that they have not completed it well quest. Although many people think that this kind of thing is just an accident, as a very responsible person, Leiya still has no way to let go.

"no, no, no, this is not just your problem with Miss Leiya, I am also wrong."

Probably because you are back in a peaceful environment again. Metz ’s performance is not as trembling as before, and it shows the smart and capable side of his businessman again.

"I already knew that this kind of thing would happen in that ghost place, and I would n’t do it if I killed him, but now it ’s a bit late to say that, now I can sit here alive without becoming those in the forest. The terrible wild beast dinner is also thanks to two people. "

Speaking of this, Fat Merchant stopped and showed a sincere smile on his face, then he reached into his arms and took out two purses.

"This is the reward for the two, Miss Leiya. Thank you for saving my life several times. Without you, I'm afraid I can't live now."

"no, no, no, this, this is what I should do, after all, we took your money ..."

Looking at the purse pushed by Fat Merchant, Leiya jumped in a hurry and shook his hand uncomfortably, but Metz was obviously an old slipper. He did n’t listen to Leiya after simply, he turned his attention to Rhodes sitting next to him .

"Mr. Rhodes, especially you ... Frankly speaking, without you, the two of us are really unable to get out of this Dusk Forest, I know that this money is not too much for a Noble, just Work is my heart. "

"No need to be so polite, Mr. Metz."

Rhodes glanced at the purse, but did not reach for it.

"You also saved my life. If it were not for you to stop the boat, I am afraid that I would have become wild beast's delicacy, so I think you can collect the money."

"This ........."

After hearing the Rhodes' words, Metz looked awkward. He can be tough with Leiya, but he dare not do this with youngster. In fact, the money is not only meaningful for repayment, but also meant to close the relationship with Rhodes. Although Fat Merchant has the intention to let Rhodes accept it, it does not dare to force it so as not to cause dissatisfaction. As a businessman, he has had a lot of dealings with Noble. He knows that many Noble values ​​face, dignity and identity. Especially this kind of youngster with talent, most of its self-esteem is very high, and a little weird. So he did not dare to force the other party to accept it as he did for Leiya, but after revealing a slight embarrassing smile, he took out a small silver badge from his arms.

"Since you say so in Mr. Rhodes, then I will not force it anymore. Please accept this badge. This is the faith token of our Silver Hand Chamber of Commerce. Although our chamber of commerce is not considered as powerful on Dragon Soul Continent, it also has It's a small position. If you have any use for our place in the future, please also try your best, we will do our best. "

This time, Rhodes did not reject the other party ’s good intentions, and in reality, this is what he waited for.

Rhodes is very clear about the ideas of these businessmen. In their view, many times money is above all else, and even their own lives can be bought and sold with money. The reason why he took out the money was only to repay the two people for his life-saving grace, but the matter was declared closed after the sale of both parties was completed.

But this is not what Rhodes wants, he has his own goal, and in order to achieve this goal, he needs some helpers. The Chamber of Commerce where Metz is located is indeed not a huge organization, but in the end it is a Chamber of Commerce with a relationship that Rhodes cannot match and trade network. From this consideration, letting them owe themselves a long-term relationship is a very good deal.

Metz certainly would n’t think that Rhodes would even hit his mind on himself. He still believed in his judgment. The young man sitting in front of him must be a noble Noble with a strong family, like him. People, they are too late to stubbornly, how can there be that interest to sell human relations?

This is a beautiful misunderstanding.

Of course Rhodes does not mind letting this misunderstanding continue.

After that, the three discussed some boring topics, and then talked about their immediate plans. What makes Metz happy is that Rhodes and Leiya also plan to go to Deep Rock City, and it is not surprising that Leiya wants to go to Deep Rock City, because her Mercenary Group Stronghold is set up there. This time, Carter took over the guards of Metz, quest, and part of it was going to go along The reason for going home. For Rhodes' selection, let Metz somewhat surprised. Especially after he heard that Rhodes actually joined Leiya's Mercenary Group, he was even more surprised, his eyes wide open for a while.

Metz is not unclear about the situation of Leiya's, after all, it is the Mercenary Group he chose, so of course he understands the situation of the other party, and he knows that now that this is the case, most of this Mercenary Group is finished. But this is not something he should worry about. After all, he has given enough money, and with Leiya as Healer, there is no problem wherever he is. In case there is really nowhere to go, Metz does not mind including her in the Chamber of Commerce. After all, Healer is very important, and it is very important to eat everywhere. This is not a bad thing for Metz.

It's just that he didn't even think about it. This girl, who looks soft and weak and has no opinion, decided to grapple her teeth? !

This is a very difficult and dangerous thing.

Metz wanted to discourage a few words, but he did n’t dare to say too much when he saw Rhodes. In his view, this young Noble joined Mercenary Group is probably just for fun. Anyway, he does not lack strength, and also There is no shortage of money and status, which is completely different from the ordinary mercenary. And ... maybe it's related to Leiya? Take a closer look, this girl is still pretty cute ... ……

If this is the case, Metz certainly dare not speak positively, and as an outsider, he has no position to take care of these idle affairs, so he just promised Leiya any difficulties to come to find himself, if it is within the scope of ability, it must be He tried his best to assist ——— originally. He didn't want to do this, but after discovering that there may be some relationship between the two who is not humane, Metz thinks it is a good choice to have a good relationship with this girl.

After the breakfast was used and the next goals were determined, Metz and Leiya resigned and left, Metz went to find the carriage to Deep Rock City, and Leiya started to prepare the supplies for three people as always, ——— is different from Dusk Forest, Now she is finally ready to prepare.

Both of them were busy with their own affairs. Only Rhodes was temporarily idle. Although Leiya told him to take a good rest, Rhodes obviously didn't mean that. After eating, he went out for a walk.

Walking in a quiet town, looking at the scenery on both sides, Rhodes can't help but felt a little emotional inside. In the game, here is the gathering place of the novice player. adventurer can be seen all around. They either shouted the team quest loudly, or sold the Rare Equipment played in their hands. In the memories of Rhodes', this place is always a noisy and lively place. But now, the town without player shows a quiet and tranquility.

But soon, this tranquility was broken.

The noise came from the corner of the street. Rhodes looked up curiously. I saw four people were arguing violently beside the carriage beside the road. Among them was a young man wearing magnificent clothes. there are still two looked like It is Swordsman of guard, and standing in front of them, fighting for a blush and a thick neck is not someone else, it is just Metz just after leaving the hotel.

What happened?

Rhodes brows wrinkled, then walked towards the four people.

"Do n’t think you have two bad money, it ’s amazing, our adults are giving you face!"

"Yes, there is a businessman, you have a shameless face!"

"Wow, what an adult, a third-class Noble, do you really think our chamber of commerce is bullying?"

"Hey, you fat man, I think you are getting tired !!"

The quarrel is getting louder and louder, Rhodes is still quiet, he glanced around, and then came to the side of the spraying Fat Merchant, patting him on the shoulder.

"What's going on? Mr. Metz?"

"Who? Even if you guys find help ......... Ah, Rhodes Master!"

Non Metz, who was scolding, turned his head, and as soon as he saw Rhodes, the expression on his face immediately changed from the snowstorm in Siberia to the gentle sunshine in the tropical rainforest.

"You are just here ..."

It's a businessman. After seeing Rhodes, Metz's attitude immediately changed to a 180 degree turn. Seeing how he is whispering now, it's hard to connect him with the domineering fat man just now. But Metz obviously also knows the problem at the moment, so without waiting for Rhodes to say anything more, he has already started talking about the course of things.

The matter itself is not complicated. Metz, who had been full of enthusiasm, quickly found a carriage, and the two sides negotiated the price, and the time has been agreed. And when Metz was about to leave, these three people suddenly appeared and said they wanted to rent the carriage, and the other party's arrogant attitude also caused anger in Metz. Originally speaking, businessmen should be harmonious and make money, but Metz has been unlucky for a few days, and has lost a ship of goods. It was already unhappy. Now that someone is provoking, he naturally ca n’t help but swear, and then both sides There was noisy.

Creek Wood Town is just a small town, and there is only one carriage. Metz wants to make a good impression on Rhodes, so naturally it is impossible to make this carriage. The other party seemed to be in a hurry, and life and death refused to give in, so that the two impatient guard could not help but want to move the knife and the gun, they originally thought Metz a businessman, seeing the sword will immediately soften. Unexpectedly, this made Fat Merchant even more annoying. Lao Tzu has seen everything about wild wolves and wild ghosts in the past few days. I'm afraid that your two servants will never succeed?

As a result, both sides are deadlocked here, and no one will give in.

So it turns out.

After learning the ins and outs of things from Fat Merchant, Rhodes faintly nodded said that he understood.

However, I haven't waited for Rhodes to say anything. A guard led by "Shua" pulled out a long sword and pointed to Rhodes.

"Who are you! Dare to take care of our business!"
