Adult fairy tale: starting from Cinderella’s feet

“Boss, you know that too?” Esther began to carefully look at the innkeeper in front of him.

“Of course! This is the most popular luxury here! I was lucky enough to light two of them!”

The innkeeper seemed to be unaware of the dangers of this enchanted candle, but instead enjoyed talking about it.

“Once? Now, aren’t these candles still available? The price is not expensive, so why can’t I enjoy them now?”

Aise carefully analyzed the words of the innkeeper.

“Sir, you are a foreigner, right?”

Aise nodded and added,”I just heard that your candles are good, so I bought two!”

“Oops, sir, you came at a really bad time. Now all you buy are ordinary candles!”

“Why? Is that candle no longer produced?”

“It’s not that we don’t produce it anymore, it’s just that the requirements for us, oh no, for people like me, have increased. Maybe adults can still buy it easily!”The innkeeper smiled and flattered Esther again.

“”Tell me in detail!” Esther continued to ask questions.

The innkeeper coughed, moistened his throat and said slowly:”This happy candle! It was a bit expensive before, but everyone can buy it!

But later, the store owner and the noble officials became friends, so the price became even more expensive, and the quantity was limited.

Later, I heard that the store owner bought a large batch of goods from a lord, which raised the boss’s reputation.

Many officials in our town went to take care of the boss’s business.

And now it is even more difficult for ordinary people to buy this happy candle!

You have to spend a lot of money to find the boss to customize it, and how long you have to wait depends on the mood of the store owner!”

Esther nodded and thought: In this era, opportunities are so inexplicable. If you have a little connection with the nobles, you will be promoted all of a sudden.

“Boss, someone is staying in the store!”

“Hey, here they come, here they come!” When the innkeeper heard that there was a business coming, he prepared to leave:”Then sir, I will go and get busy first!”

“Well, go ahead!”

Esther thought for a long time and felt that he had to get the enchanted candle and meet the boss behind the scenes before this matter could continue.

So the next day, Esther went to the candle shop again, planning to customize the enchanted candle and meet the ‘little girl’ selling matches behind the scenes!

After arriving at the store, the clerk saw that it was Esther from yesterday, and knew that Esther didn’t have any big orders, so he was no longer enthusiastic and let her choose by herself.

However, Esther went straight to the two clerks:”Hello, both of you, I want to buy… happy candles!”

The two clerks were stunned, looked at each other, and looked Esther up and down, as if there was a silent communication.

“Happy candles are not something that ordinary people can buy now! Customer! You are from another place, right?”

Aise smiled at the two of them and said,”Of course, so I came to your boss to customize it today!”

“Hahaha! Sorry, stranger, our boss is very busy right now. Many nobles are inviting our boss to dinner! But……”

The two shop assistants exchanged glances again.

“But what?”

“However, you can pay a deposit and we can help you talk to your boss as soon as possible!”

“OK, how much!”

“One… five hundred copper coins!”

Esther listened to the outrageous price and looked at the guests who came into the store one after another: With such a price, he can still have such a good business. The local judicial authorities are probably in cahoots with this boss.

In order not to alert the enemy, Esther paid the expensive deposit to lure the boss behind the scenes to make a move.

After paying the deposit, Esther walked out of the candle shop and looked at the other people who came in. They were all trying to please the two little clerks.

Esther shook his head. It seemed that he had to add a little more to the survival rules of the Middle Ages.

When Esther returned to the inn, the innkeeper ran up to him in a hurry and asked,”Sir, did you go to the candle shop to customize happy candles?”

“yes!”

“So you met the boss?”

“No, I only saw two shop assistants and paid them a deposit!”

“”Oh my! Sir!” The innkeeper slapped his thigh and cried out:”Those two are greedy guys! I’m afraid your money is wasted!”

“Oh?” Esther raised his hand and clenched his fist, making a creaking sound.”You told me last night that you were going to have it custom made, and now that I’ve paid, you’re telling me it’s all wasted. It’s hard for me not to wonder what your relationship is with those two guys.”

“”Oh, sir, sir!” The innkeeper half-bent his legs and said,”I was also cheated of a hundred copper coins by them!

I am the victim. I was too busy last night and forgot to tell you everything!”

“One hundred?” Esther laughed and said,”Damn, these two bastards really think I’m a fat sheep!

What else do you have to say? If the rest is not valuable, you really have to taste this ‘bread’!””

“Price…value!” The innkeeper’s eyes moved rapidly, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind:”Oh, it is valuable, it is valuable!”

“go on!”

“The owner of the candle shop has become rich, and it is hard to see him now. I think it will be difficult for you to see him!

But you can go find his daughter, maybe there is still a chance!”
