Chapter 37 New Jobs
"Crack, creak." Sitting in the corner, Shuer chewed the fragrant sausages. The hind legs of the lizard were very chewy and tasted like it was addictive. It made people reluctant to let go. They had to finish the whole thing in one breath before they could stop.
By the bonfire in the distance, the banquet has entered the most lively stage. Eating and drinking enough, and drinking until half-hearted is the time to be the most excited.
The parasites who had just experienced two strange days in the ghost space, and the caravan members who were scared outside and even didn't know what was happening to them, finally got rid of the fear that was tangled around them like a spider web, and suddenly relieved their psychological pressure. These ordinary people burst out with enthusiasm far beyond their usual conditions, and devoted their whole body and mind to the enjoyment of the banquet.
Life is so fragile that you will leave this world forever without knowing it and die in loneliness and despair. In this case, why not enjoy every beautiful moment in your life and make living happier?
So, music was played, fireworks were lit, and the cup was filled with wine, and the dance steps were in full swing.
Happiness is contagious.
Soon, more and more people were devoted to the excitement, throwing away their usual reserve and hypocrisy, and facing the world that survived the disaster with their true self. Even the few subordinates with identities around Earl Merck were involved with the acquiescence of the Count. Maybe tomorrow they would put on a thick shell and become the cautious self again, but at least at this moment, they let go of everything, at least at this moment, they were happy.
Only Shuer, holding a plate of food and a few bottles of wine, sat in the shadows, the light of the bonfire could not shine on him, and what accompanied him was the boundless darkness, and the lightless moon that always stood gentle in the night sky.
"Crack and Crack", he seemed to have a great time eating, but his eyes were always on the bonfire. No one knew what he was thinking about. The silence surrounding him was a silence that kept people from thousands of miles away.
"Come here, otherwise I'm afraid you will cut the holes in the car." Still staring at Lisa, Shuer suddenly said softly, "You can wait until now, it seems that your patience is really good."
From the shadows of a pile of carriages next to them, the two men slowly walked out, one man and one woman, naturally the two leaders of the parasite, Linda and McCree.
"Sit." refers to the position opposite. This is the simplest negotiation technique. With the help of identity differences, using only a simple word and an action, we naturally control the dominance of the conversation. "Are you ready to have a formal talk?"
"Yeah." The two of them sat down carefully, Linda nodded, "Tonight should be the last chance."
"Haha, you underestimated your value, but it is also because you don't understand my intentions." Shur threw down the plate and wiped the corners of his mouth with the unique elegance of the priests. "In fact, today is not necessarily the last chance."
"Are you going to bring us?" The man and woman looked at each other, and their four eyes lit up at the same time.
"How is it, it's very sincere." Indeed, the next step will be revealed as soon as you start, fully demonstrate your sincerity, and can avoid a lot of trouble for subsequent communication.
"We understand. Since that's the case, we try not to reserve."
"Try to do what you can?"
"Yeah, try."
"Okay, after all, everyone has difficulties." Without being too demanding on the two of them, Shuer looked at Lisa holding Eddie and Sophie's hands from afar, sneaking around the bonfire, with a warm smile on his lips, and asked indifferently, "Noble? Butler?"
"Yes." The two of them smiled bitterly at the same time. It seemed that they could not hide it.
"I have received strict secondary education, but I have a slight lack of etiquette. In addition, although I have hidden identities and live in the wilderness, the importance of costumes and art is at most moderate or even lower. From this, I infer that three or four girls from a certain baron's family are also legitimate daughters?"
"Ha, you're right." Linda sighed helplessly and felt that she had no secrets, so she could only nod and nodded again.
"Why can't you give birth? Congenital or acquired?"
The sudden sharpness made Linda's face turn pale in an instant, and she even suspected that Shul was an acquaintance who knew her background. However, reason still made her face quickly and answered unconcealedly: "Ms. Suffer's pastor has checked it and said it was a congenital disease."
"Then there is nothing to do, sorry." Shuer sighed regretfully. If it was an acquired injury, healing magic could be solved. However, Ms. Suffer is a god in charge of diseases and medical treatment. Her pastors are excellent doctors. Since they have judged that it was caused by congenital diseases, Shuer has no ability to change anything.
"Nothing." Linda smiled reluctantly, "I'm used to it."
"Being married should be a marriage with a new noble or aristocrat, but divorced due to inability to give birth to children, and the family even made certain compensation to the other party. The female descendants of the three daughters have a status in the family far lower than those of the eldest and second daughters, and have caused losses to the family. In addition, the disease problem will make them unable to marry in the future, and they will be marginalized by their parents, discriminated against by their brothers and sisters, and even their servants do not value you."
"Don't pay attention, haha, you don't have to say that it's so tactful, Lord Priest."
"He is your housekeeper?" Retracting his gaze from Lisa who was entangled by Dark holding a rose, Seul pointed at McCree, "The fourth housekeeper or the fifth housekeeper?"
"My family is not that big, the fourth housekeeper."
"The last steward, and he inherited it, and he was sympathetic to each other." Xiu nodded thoughtfully, "I am unwilling to be discriminated against and elopement?"
"It shouldn't be...it's not."
"Well, it seems that a tacit understanding has been reached."
"Ha, Master Priest, you're very accurate." Linda smiled bitterly, "The family happily get rid of a burden and laughing stock, and don't mind missing a last-place butler who blocks other people's path. As long as they leave far away, they will not do anything. Of course, if they have to go back, unless they have extraordinary achievements that can block the mouths of other nobles, they don't have to think about it."
"That's right." All the observations were confirmed. Shuer was silent for a while, squinted and asked, "What are the plans for the future?"
"You mean the original?"
"certainly."
"Although it was equivalent to being driven out on its own initiative, the family did not treat us unfairly and acquiesced to take away some property. Our original plan was to use the identity of Lord Wendy as a general believer to take root in the Emerald Empire, sell those property and open a small shop, at least to ensure that we can support ourselves. As for how we develop in the future, we can only talk about the situation."
"I think so. With your Earl's financial officer friend, it should be no problem to open a small shop." Shuer smiled, "But are you sure you can take root smoothly?"
"Of course not." Linda said self-deprecatingly, "Even when you arrive at the Emerald safely, you need to show how much you can use to exchange it for. How can you talk about? Well? Wait? Let's hear what the priest meant, you have a long-term task and need us to complete it, so I hope we will give up our original plan?"
"A very smart woman, I like to talk to smart people." Shure's smile was full of temptation, just like a tempting demon. "Think about it, after the Water Curtain Festival, you will go back to the Rose Capital of the Kingdom of Kora. I am responsible for ensuring your safety and income in the future. As long as I live for one day, this promise will always be effective. And you are responsible for working for me, and income will definitely satisfy your life. And as long as you persist, you can accumulate a lot of connections."
“If we refuse…”
"Then you are like other parasites, and it is useless to me." The implication is obvious, so you can go with those people and wish you good luck.
“What is the job?”
"You said before that you like children very much, so it is naturally a job related to children."
"We need to think about it." Linda said, holding McCree's hand tightly and biting her lower lip, "It's too hasty to give you a reply now."
"I hope to get an answer tomorrow morning."
“As you wish.”
"Hahaha, unexpected gain." It was confirmed that the two of them would agree. Xiu watched the two leave in a hurry, as if to the air, "It seems that this encounter is not without benefits."
"Hehe, I don't know." His hands stretched out from behind, hugged Shuer's waist, and his little face was tightly pressed against his brother's back. Lisa replied softly, "What the hell are you going to do?"
"I won't tell you." Shuer smiled and patted his little hand on his stomach, "You will know then."
"Hehe, my brother is no longer uneasy, it's great." The girl sighed with satisfaction while smelling the familiar smell, "I like this brother the most."
Shuer paused and his muscles became stiff.
"Is it really dangerous these two days? I want to hear my brother tell the truth."
"Well, every step is very dangerous. If we don't investigate and ask for help, we can't come back. If we didn't look for Malin to take care of Dark's mood, we can't come back. If Malin hadn't accidentally escaped from the ghost space, we can't come back. If we didn't find the medium in time in the end..."
"We can't come back."
"Haha, the time flow rate on both sides is not equal, and the flow rate inside is getting faster and faster. I don't know what will happen if the time flow rate gap is too large, but it is very likely that the connection between the two sides will be completely disconnected. Even if you find the medium again, it will be meaningless. Haha, whenever I feel that I can protect you, reality will slap me heavily. It's really ironic to think about it."
"So my brother is blaming himself. Did he almost bring me into a desperate situation?"
Shuer closed his mouth tightly, and he was embarrassed to answer such questions.
"So, my brother is the fool, the biggest one." Suddenly, he pounced on Shuer's back, and hung it completely on his brother like a backpack. Lisa tear her hair into her and said with a smile, "Brother doesn't understand at all. It's not afraid of the great Lisa. There is a goddess and a brother, there is no desperate situation at all. Moreover, as long as you can be with your brother, even if you are really in a desperate situation, Lisa will be satisfied. Therefore, the great Lisa doesn't blame you at all, and you don't allow you to blame yourself. Do you understand, stupid brother."
"Hey, hey, don't pull it, you're going to be bald."
