Broad World
Chapter 888: Acquaintances
"Today's turnover is a total of 1,800 gold coins. After deducting performance fees, labor costs, drinks, tobacco, food, etc., there is a total surplus of 437. After deducting my 5% commission, the remaining Four hundred and fifteen. Haha! The money I earned today has finally broken through four hundred gold coins! I also have twenty-two gold coins in my account!"
After carefully checking today's accounts, Fadini jumped up happily holding the thick account book. She never imagined that doing business could be so much fun.
Especially at this time every night, when you count how much money you have earned, it feels like hearing gold coins rolling in your ears. The most important thing is that you still have your own share in it. Also more.
Of course, the little Lolita has suffered a lot to get to this point.
She just started learning arithmetic and keeping accounts. She frowned and stayed up late almost every day. She seized every minute and tried to cram addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division into her mind, which she had never touched before. I drank some "genius potion", I'm afraid I'm still chewing on books.
Barefoot dancing on the ground for a few minutes, Fadini quickly waved her small fists and shouted: "Damn it! The turnover of 1800 yuan, the profit is only more than 400 yuan, less than a quarter , you need to invest in something with high profits. Also, there are too few people coming to the underground casino, so you have to find a way to let more people know about it.”
If one ignores her age and the light gauze pajamas she wears, she looks like a mercenary businesswoman in a serious manner at the moment.
"Hehe, don't worry, I guarantee that you will have countless gold coins in the future, and you will become the queen of the underground world of Calimport." Henry smiled and stroked the girl's fiery red hair.
After a period of training, this little guy has gradually become confident and mature, no matter how he walks. Or the tone of speech, which is very different from before. I believe that it will not take long to become an excellent manager.
"Queen? Me?!"
Little Lolita was obviously frightened by the news, she pointed her finger at her nose and asked.
Henry smiled and nodded: "Of course, I can't stay in Calimport forever, so when I'm not around, you are the leader of the Phantom Guild, who controls huge wealth and power, and even Wahid has to obey Your order. After a while. I will make all the underground forces in this city submit to my feet, so you will be a well-deserved queen by then."
After he finished speaking, he pulled the girl into his arms, feeling Lolita's soft body and the faint fragrance on her body, while kissing her smooth forehead, and reaching into the gauze skirt with both hands to caress her white and tender legs. It made the little guy sore and limp, and he opened his mouth to let out faint (wheezing) breaths.
"Why... why me?" Fatini asked in a low voice, panting.
She only had an unreal illusion about her life during this time, and today she heard that she would become the master of the Phantom Guild in the future, and finally couldn't help but express the doubts in her heart.
"Because I thought it would be interesting to raise a kitten to be the queen of the underworld, especially in the misogynistic land of Calimshan. Watching those arrogant men fall under your skirt..."
Before he could finish speaking, Henry suddenly raised his head and stared at the window outside. Two cold lights shot out of the eyes, and one hand was pressed on the handle of the knife.
Noticing his abnormal behavior, little Lolita immediately tightened her skirt, lowered her voice and asked cautiously: "What... what's wrong? Is there an assassin?"
"I don't know yet, you put on your clothes and go to the restaurant for a while, and come back after an hour." After speaking, Henry gently backed the girl.
He found that someone was near the window at this moment, but because the other party's stealth skills were so good, he couldn't figure out whether he had already entered. It was still outside the window. From this point of view, the other party was definitely a master of stealth.
Fadini didn't try to argue, grabbed a blouse, and ran out of the room without saying a word. She knew that it would be a burden for her to stay, so she ran to the basement, intending to inform Wahid and the twin brothers and ask them to bring someone to help.
After confirming that the girl is gone. Henry unsheathed his long knife directly, and said to the window with a sneer on his face: "Don't hide, come out, I know you are there, or do you want me to use a weapon to invite you out?"
The person hiding near the window didn't respond. Continue to hide your whereabouts, even in order not to be found. Even breathing stopped temporarily, and the whole environment was completely integrated, like a stone or a piece of wood.
"Interesting, it looks like you're playing hide-and-seek. Well, then I'll play with you." As he spoke, Henry began to approach the window sill step by step. During the process, his muscles tensed rapidly.
Normally, a stealth master of this level is usually a master assassin, so he is highly concentrated, and then he is ready for the coming thunder strike.
Opening the window with a long knife, Henry squinted his eyes and searched every corner outside the window carefully, but unfortunately, he found nothing.
The headquarters of the Phantom Guild is a two-story building with a very large area. During the renovation, an attic was added for miscellaneous chores. The bedroom he was in was just below the attic window. It is the back door of the bar on the first floor. Many staff and drunken guests come in and out. The only place where people can hide is the flower beds on both sides of the window.
But at this moment, apart from a few cactus blooming, there were not even a single fly in the flower bed.
Just when Henry couldn't figure it out, suddenly a figure descended from the sky, stabbing him in the throat with a magic dagger flashing red light.
The assassin's movements are so fast, and his timing is also very precise, I am afraid that ninety-nine percent of the people will die under this throat blow.
In a blink of an eye, the sharp dagger stopped less than a few millimeters from his throat, and he couldn't move forward no matter what.
It turned out that a big hand wearing a black glove was like iron tongs, tightly clamping the deadly weapon with its thumb and forefinger, while the other hand put the long knife on the assassin's neck.
Henry not only saved himself, but also countered the opponent in less than 0.2 seconds. To some extent, his body has completely exceeded the limit of human beings, especially in terms of agility and reflexes.
The masked assassin glanced at the weapon pressed against his neck. Not only did he not show any despair or fear, but he laughed and clapped his hands: "Wow! It's unbelievable. A legendary spellcaster can have such terrifying speed and martial skills. I don't even know what to say." What's good."
After finishing speaking, he took off his veil directly, revealing a very ordinary face, it was the most powerful thief of Askatla - Arkanis.
There is no doubt that this guy recognized Henry at a glance, after all, when the disguise was changed. He just covered up the color of his hair and eyes. As for his face, he basically kept his original appearance, so it's not surprising that he was seen through by acquaintances.
"When did you come to Calimport? Also, isn't it fun to sneak up on me when you have nothing to do? Forget it, let's talk about it first. Remember, my name is Boyce now, don't say it Leaked."
Seeing that he was an old acquaintance, Henry immediately lifted his guard, and after a simple exhortation, he made a gesture of please. He knew that the bloody confidant was just testing. He didn't really intend to kill himself, otherwise the first round of attack would not be a dagger, but a magic-breaking arrow. And there may be bursts.
All experienced assassins know that when killing a mage, the possibility of success in the first round of attack is very small, so they will never do it themselves. Usually, magic arrows will open the way. The perfect time to kill.
Akanis stepped into the room through the window, and shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "I'm sorry, I wasn't sure if it was you before. So I had to try it out. As for the time to come to Calimport, it's just a few days Before. I'm in big trouble right now and need your help."
The legendary thief was like a starving ghost once he entered the house, explaining, grabbing the leftover lamb pie from the plate and stuffing it into his mouth. Judging from the stench from his body and the way he eats, he must have suffered a lot.
This scene made Henry feel very interesting for a moment, and he touched his chin and asked playfully: "Tell me, who can make the famous Arcanis so embarrassed? Don't tell me it's a gang in the city."
"That's right. It's the Black Sail Guild that controls the dock area. I brought a batch of goods to trade, but they actually wanted to cheat. Damn it! If it weren't for the bloody order not to allow mass killings, I would definitely They look good." Arcanis gulped down the food in his mouth, and cursed viciously.
"No killings are allowed? Is the bloodhead trying to expand the power of the shadow thief here?"
Henry found the key to the problem at once. He didn't need to think about what Renault? Bloodhead was planning, and it wasn't a day or two for the shadow thief to covet this chaotic land. But they don't understand at all, if they can't get the permission of the Magic Talisman Society. No matter how many times you try, you will always fail.
In Calimshan, except for the ancient blue dragon "Sharp Tooth" Ivy Kelasagran, no one is an opponent of the Magic Talisman Society. As long as they are willing, they can even uproot the church of the gods. Remember the Lord's instruction.
Arcanis noticed the deep gaze in Henry's eyes, and hurriedly wiped off the oil on his mouth, and asked in a low voice, "Is there anything wrong with that?"
"Of course it's inappropriate, and it's very, very inappropriate, but it's not life-threatening. Think carefully about the reasons why Bloodhead has failed to gain a foothold over the years, and then carefully look for the connections. We'll talk after you figure it out. "After speaking, Henry sat down on the chair with a smile on his face, and looked at the other party thinking hard without saying a word.
He is still very happy about the sudden visit of this legendary thief. Since the cooperation with the Shadow Thieves Guild is currently in the honeymoon period, it is entirely possible to involve Akanis in the next plan, and at most divide a small piece of land for him. Bloodhead, anyway, the opponent's appetite is not very big.
