Evening Bell Church
Chapter 34: Stranger (Please vote!)
(ps: The foreshadowing is almost done, let's start the official plot)
Su Ge looked at Evan's excitement, and he was relieved and said strangely: "Evan, don't get excited. I just said it casually, it's nonsense."
Evan's eyes flashed with divine light and said: "Although you said it casually without intention, it gave me important inspiration. I seem to have found a way to improve it. You eat first, I have to think it through. If I miss such an important inspiration, I will regret it for the rest of my life."
Su Ge grinned, looking happy.
Evan drew an important sketch, then came to eat, and left in a hurry after eating.
Betty smiled and said: "Sorry, I'll treat you to a big meal next time you come to my house!"
After sending the two away.
Ada asked: "I'm going to work in the library in the afternoon. Do you have any activities?"
Now that the money of the two people has run out, Ada found a part-time job.
Su Ge felt a little distressed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "I will try to find some part-time jobs in the afternoon."
Ada counted on her fingers: "The Cang Yue Festival is coming soon. You need to save some money to buy some new clothes to attend the festival banquet, and buy some meat to prepare festival food. Otherwise, if you wear your usual dress, your neighbors will laugh at you secretly."
"We can't afford ready-made clothes, so we can buy fabric first. I recently saw a new type of fabric that is a mix of cotton and linen. The price is not expensive. I can wear a church robe, and your clothes will cost about 1 lang. Then go to Mrs. Gilsay on Xiangguo Street to make clothes. I have negotiated the labor fee, and 40 lang cents will be enough."
"The more expensive thing is food. We have run out of spices at home. Recently, winter has come. Although the price of meat has dropped, the price of spices has risen sharply. We need to make food for two people for two days, which will cost about 2 lang, and the house needs to be decorated..."
After hearing Ada's calculation, Su Ge found that the family's financial situation was much worse than he thought, because he forgot about the Cang Yue Festival.
This is a big festival in the first grade, which is on January 1st of every year. It is similar to the Spring Festival on Earth, and the customs are similar. Wear new clothes, eat delicious food, and decorate the house with lights and colors. It is lively but also very expensive.
Su Ge said: "You don't have to be too tired. I have been doing very well recently, and I can even advance a month's salary. This money is enough for our holiday expenses."
"Su Ge, you should save some money for yourself, otherwise you won't be able to afford flowers when you meet a girl you like in the future." Ada said directly.
"..."
After packing up, Ada put on her clothes and left in a hurry.
Su Ge was not idle either. He changed into his old black suit and top hat, picked up his cane and walked out.
"I can now use the second skill of the priest, the meditative mantra. This should help some people stabilize their spirits, and they should be able to find some jobs!" Su Ge thought to himself, and walked along Pearl Street in front of the police station to the talent market near the city center.
Walking on the wide street, Su Ge looked at the buildings on both sides. His pace was slow, and his eyes looked around with appreciation.
"I've been in this world for so long, but I haven't slowed down to take a good look at what this world looks like." Su Ge sighed as he looked at the faint green smoke in the sky.
Crossing this street corner, Su Ge heard a quarrel.
Turning his head, he saw a young man in a black coat and carrying a suitcase talking to a bakery owner.
Unfortunately, the two people quarreled fiercely because of the language barrier.
"Are you speaking the Covenant language? Are you from the Covenant?" Su Ge was a little surprised.
The Covenant Empire is one of the three major empires today. It is located in the southwest of the entire continent, and is separated from the Bellant Empire in the northeast of the continent by dozens of principalities.
However, the relationship between the two countries is good, because the state religion of the Covenant Empire is the Nighthawk Church.
The Nighthawk Church is the origin of demon hunters all over the world. At the same time, like the Holy Blood Church, it is a branch separated from the Kabatos Academy.
Seeing the two people about to fight, Su Ge, who was also half a policeman, stepped forward and said in the language of the Alliance: "Sir, please don't misunderstand, he is not unwilling to give you money, but he can't make the change for the time being. He hopes you can wait for a while, and he will go to the next door to change some change."
The young man in the big windbreaker was stunned when he heard it, as if he saw a savior, and said with gratitude: "Thank you, goddess, kind and kind sir, please help me translate."
The fat boss of the bakery here looked at Su Ge and then said unexpectedly: "Priest Sothos?"
Su Ge smiled and nodded and said: "It's me, Mr. Parker."
Parker, the owner of this bakery, has a good relationship with Su Ge.
Su Ge also inspected his bakery when he inspected this street a few days ago. At that time, his little daughter was scared, and Su Ge used the motto of meditation to help the little girl.
Parker was very grateful and invited him to have a meal of soft white bread covered with butter.
Su Ge, who was already very hungry at the time, suddenly felt that he had eaten the most delicious food since he came to this world.
"Mr. Parker, go find the money first. I know some covenant language, I will help you keep him stable." Su Ge said with a smile.
Parker was immediately grateful after hearing this, and ran to the next door with the money in his hand.
The misunderstanding between the two people was very simple. The young man took a 10-franc note to buy bread. Maybe he was too hungry, so he took the bread and started eating.
Parker couldn't find it and was about to leave to find the money. Due to the language barrier, the two people had a misunderstanding, and since the bread had already been eaten, a refund was not available, so they ended up in a stalemate.
The young man took off his gloves and said: "Hello sir, my name is Bart Fehr, I am a businessman from the Alliance Empire."
Su Ge stretched out his hand: "Su Ge Sotos, a trainee priest."
Bart said with approval: "You are really knowledgeable and can speak the covenant language so fluently."
Su Ge smiled and said: "I majored in philosophy in college. I was very interested in the three-part spiritual philosophy of the Fourth Dynasty before the Alliance Empire and the Dolanon Empire, so I studied by myself for a long time."
After hearing this, Bart said with approval: "Your erudition and kindness will be blessed by the goddess."
At this time, Mr. Parker grabbed a handful of banknotes and walked over and handed them to Bart.
After Bart counted the numbers, he bowed apologetically to Parker.
"He's apologizing to you." Sugar said.
Parker smiled and waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's just a misunderstanding."
After the misunderstanding was resolved, Su Ge looked at him and said: "When doing business, language barrier is a very important issue."
Bart took off his hat and scratched his head and said: "My teacher also often warned me about this. In fact, I originally had a partner who was very proficient in Berlant, but due to some things, he and I got separated."
Su Ge immediately laughed after hearing this and said, "If you can trust me, I can be a temporary translator for you. You only need to pay me some reasonable compensation. How about it?"
After hearing this, Bart looked at Su Ge carefully. When he saw the goddess pendant on his chest from the corner of his eye, he smiled and said, "That's really my great luck, Mr. Sotos."
