Chapter 395
“Hey, Donald, when I saw that man enter the door just now, the store manager’s expression was a little ugly.”
Walking down the street, Stephanie tugged Donald’s sleeve. Whispered, she stood relatively inside before, and her vision just covered the counter.
“Angry?”
Donald was wondering why the mayor of this village was looking for them, and he was a little confused when he heard what Stephanie said.
“It should be said to be disgusting, like the feeling of seeing a dirty beggar walk into the house, he seems to be very unwelcome to the deputy mayor.”
Stephanie is always sensitive to emotions. The person who came to invite them just now was the deputy head of the village. It is reasonable to say that he should be respected by the people in the village. However, looking at the reaction of the store manager at the time, it was obvious that something was wrong.
“Not welcome…I think I know why.”
Playing with the pocket watch in his hand, Donald pursed his lips.
“You just met for the first time, so you know?”
“Look at the clothes of the deputy village chief, you found nothing.”
I took a step back to make sure my voice was not heard by the deputy village chief who was talking to Anthony. Anthony was the oldest in the entire group, so the deputy village chief subconsciously regarded him as the team’s leader. The leader, Donald did not refute, but deliberately asked Anthony to negotiate.
“Isn’t it normal attire?”
Stephanie looked up and down several times, brown coat, trousers of the same color, leather boots, palms, and a silk top Top hats, the standard gentleman’s attire, filled the streets of Demingham’s Tallinn district with men in this attire.
“It was normal in Demingham back then, but don’t forget, it’s a small mountain village, and it’s like… a mountain with peacock feathers. Chickens walking around in a flock of fowls, can you understand?”
“puchi, if people hear your analogy, they shouldn’t come and fight you?”
Steffen Ni can’t help laughing at Donald’s sudden metaphor, but I have to say that this metaphor is actually very vivid.
This kind of attire of the deputy village chief is obviously educated. For him, this is what a gentleman should be in when he goes out, but for these villagers who are accustomed to casual attire In other words, this way of wearing is obviously a bit out of touch with the masses.
Of course, this may be just one of the reasons, after all, just because the clothes are not the same, there will be no such reaction.
I went all the way to the house where the village chief lived, and the appearance of the outside was no different from the surrounding houses. Like this kind of village, there would naturally be no government office buildings.
“Everyone, please come in.”
The deputy village chief stood at the door, turned sideways and made a gesture of please.
Before entering the door, Donald’s eyes first stayed on the beams and pillars outside for a while. The wheat ears inserted on the top were not full enough, and the animal skins on the door panels were obviously nailed to them casually. , In terms of appearance, it is even worse than those ordinary houses on the roadside.
When he walked in, the first thing Donald saw was the umbrella bucket and coat hanger placed in the corner, as well as the shoe rack on the other side. , very sophisticated.
Judging from the perfunctory attitude towards the two items of the winter festival, the village chief is opposed to the god of harvest and hunting. Judging from the furniture at the door, the village chief should have been in Africa. I lived in a city in the faith area for a while.
These are two messages Donald got in a short time.
They finally met the village chief in a somewhat humble study.
Of course, the simplicity here is relative. For Donald, who used to sit in the study of Shelley’s ancestral villa, reading a book, this study, which may have a total area of only 20 square meters, is really a bit too much. Shabby, but for this village, this should be the place with the richest collection of books.
“My dear Langfeluo Eddie, the village chief of Ferro Village.”
It was the village chief who introduced himself first, and then the self-introduction of Donald entire group. .
While speaking, Donald is looking at the village chief.
At first glance, you can see that it is a well-groomed hairstyle, and there is obviously a lot of effort to have a mustache. The village chief is dressed in a black formal dress. This kind of dress is in the Demingham wears most of the time when attending important occasions. If it is usually spread, it will be said to be a rigid person who will not relax.
“Do you have any business with us?”
It was Anthony who was talking, no way, his current role is the leader of their entire group, so naturally Let him speak.
“I just wanted to meet a few people. I heard from the villagers that some of them came from the south, looking at their clothes and the carriage full of goods. They should have come from Beiruye City?”
p>
When the village chief spoke, his gaze swept vaguely at the Frost and Flame Double Blades hanging from Anthony’s waist and the long sword in Lilo’s hand.
Donald watched and communicated with Anthony with spirit strength.
“Yes, in fact, we are a mercenary team from Beluye City. Our destination is Delchimo. We happened to pass through this village and picked up a piece that is said to be a bounty of harvest and hunting. The woodcarving of God was invited here.”
From the mayor’s eyes, he obviously cared about the weapons of Anthony and Lilo, and it could be said that he cared about their battle strength, so Donald simply Let Anthony change his tune.
“Oh, so that’s how it is, in fact, I once studied in Beluye City for a few years, and the roasted whole lamb over there is something I’m still thinking about, but a few are mercenaries. Are you still with a child? Sorry, no offense.”
The village chief’s eyes lit up immediately when he heard that it was a mercenary, but he didn’t say it clearly and pretended to be casual. “Inquiry”.
Unfortunately, he didn’t know that the people sitting in front of him were more shrewd than each other, and one of them was a stranger who could detect emotions.
“Don’t underestimate them, they all have the ability.”
Donald took the conversation and gave Lilo a look, the latter got up and drew his sword, clean The neat movement and the whistling sound of the blade breaking through the air immediately shocked the village chief.
“Sir, the coffee is ready.”
A woman came in from the door with a large plate in her hand. In addition to the dishes, there was also a porcelain vase. This is the first time Donald has seen coffee served with this appliance.
It’s actually quite rare to have coffee in such a rural place, and finely ground coffee isn’t cheap.
“I think the village chief has specially received us. He should not just want to get to know us, right? I like to be more relaxed. If there is anything, please ask the village chief to tell me.”
Anthony glanced at Donald, gestured with his eyes, turned his head, and directly confronted the village chief.
They don’t have that much free time to waste time with people here.
“This…Actually, I want you to do me a favor and expose a liar!”
The village chief gritted his teeth, but still said his true self. the goal of.
Don’t think about it, the liar must be the Great Sage.
