Chapter 32

"I can use common language, but it's poor, so I need someone who is familiar with the local situation."

Zhao Mai finished the sentence in a stumbling common language, and continued to look at the guy named Ferdinand green and nicknamed "crazy rat" in front of him.

From the appearance, he is totally unrelated to creatures like mice. Facial line is very hard, medium build, slightly muscular, skin care is very good. From the eyebrows and eyes, they are almost the same age as Zhao Mai, belonging to the older youth with maturity and passion in their eyes.

If he can dress up well, he is definitely an excellent young man. Unfortunately, his old clothes full of patches have damaged the overall image. However, his common language is very clear, and his speaking speed is also very slow - or deliberately slow down so that Zhao Mai can understand it - which provides him with a lot of bonus points.

"I understand. You want to hire me as a servant to help with all kinds of chores." "It's not my main line of business, but I can do it," Green said. According to the price agreed by the guild, the full-time Servant Employment price in neibo town can not be less than 5 silver coins per day. I can provide better service, so the price is 8 silver dollars a day. "

Zhao Mai thought about it. He didn't make much effort to understand his meaning, which is very valuable. He found that green was very gifted in language. He knew that some words belonged to an important part of a sentence, so he made a point of saying them clearly. In this way, even if the rest can't be fully understood, the whole sentence can be understood by connecting these main words. For this reason, it's necessary to pay more money. Anyway, all my money is taken from the Gnome magician.

"The first three days is a trial. I'm willing to pay 5 silver coins every day, and then I'll improve it. How about this?"

"Of course, it's allowed by the guild. If you have nothing urgent now, please follow me to the guild to register, so that I can start the service

Zhao Mai nodded and asked about the guild. "Mad rat" Green spent a lot of effort to explain the role of guild to Zhao Mai.

The so-called guild is a place specialized in dealing with matters related to civil contracts. It can provide drafting, examination, notarization, custody and accountability. It is a bit similar to the combination of civil court, notary office and law firm. Such a combination has the problems of insufficient detailed division of labor and excessive power, but it is still a very progressive initiative for the current development stage of granion.

The guild's business involves all aspects, and a group of people who specialize in documents and characters determine the elements that should be used to regulate contracts. It is said that in this process, they have referred to a lot of devil's soul contracts in order to achieve the level of foolproof, although it is only a dream at present.

Because there are quite a number of illiterates, they often suffer losses when signing contracts and documents. The existence of guilds has changed this situation, and the standardized market has brought greater market. In addition, the atmosphere of negotiation in neibo town makes the guild's business bigger and bigger. By taking advantage of the service charge, the guild can hire adventurers to recover from those who break the contract.

"The guild is only concerned about whether the gold coin recovered can make up for the interests of the injured, not about the life or death of the defaulter." Green shrugged his shoulders and reminded Zhao Mai in a very serious tone: "it's easier to kill than to catch alive, and mercenaries like to work in the most efficient way, so most of the defaulters can't survive."

"Is there no Lord here, he doesn't care?"

"If the defaulter stays in the local area, he will generally go to the guild to explain why he has breached the contract. As long as we discuss it, there will always be a solution. " "Once you escape, you leave the jurisdiction of the local lords, and other lords don't care much about these things. After all, it's not your own lords who die," Green said

Zhao Mai understood. The autonomy of local lords, coupled with a part of "tooth for tooth, eye for eye", is still an orderly civilization, but it can't be compared with the familiar world. Every place has its own rules, every place has its own violent institutions, and judgments and punishments may come fast and hard.

Without a unified constitution and a judicial system with clear division of labor, this is a world without security. Maybe the villages and neighbors can watch each other and protect the most basic order, but after leaving the town, it is a world that uses the law of jungle.

"If you don't have the certificate of other foreign firms and there is no local guarantor, you have to pay some fees to register your identity, which is equivalent to one tenth of the value of the contract you want to sign." "How long do you want to hire me?" green asked

"No longer than Two months. " Zhao Mai thought about it and replied.

Through the clock on the car, he knew that there was a 30 times difference in the speed of time between glarion and his own world. Here is a stable month of 30 days, which is equivalent to one day on earth. He has been staying for nearly half a month, and it's almost the limit to stay for another half to a month. I'm missing on earth. Maybe someone will look for me. He didn't want his family to worry too much.

His registered identity is "Mike", and his local contact uses the name of the Ranger Carl, which surprised green and made him stare. Seeing his expression, Zhao Mai asked, "why, is Carl a famous Ranger?""Although we seldom see him, we all know him. He is a person trusted by the local townspeople and the Druid community. He helped the Druids to help Nebo at that time, and he was less than ten years old at that time."

Zhao Mai picked up the grain reserve and showed it to green. "He gave me the dog, and now he's my good brother."

Grain reserves give a timely bark, and then stick out their tongues to sell cute. Green smiles, but he has other thoughts in his heart.

After several hours of contact, he found many doubts. Mike, who came from outside the town, didn't really have a good command of the common language, but he wasn't ill bred. When a real hillbilly comes to the guild for the first time, he will be shocked by the complicated procedures and novel concepts here and become at a loss. However, Mike seems to be at ease and can even point out the shortcomings of some places.

From chaos to order requires enough learning, but what kind of learning has no common language? This outsider has other native languages. He stutters and sometimes makes grammatical mistakes, but we can find something different in his native language. Green himself is proficient in many languages and has never seen a similar grammatical habit.

Considering the overbearing dog and the fact that the man was related to Ranger Carl, green immediately associated himself with the Druid community. The mysterious Druid language has not been spread, maybe this is Michael's heel.

Things get interesting.

"Why are you registered as a businessman, not an adventurer?" "It's not appropriate for businessmen to pay higher taxes," green asked

"Because I have something to sell, if possible, I even want to open up a business road, so I have to register as a businessman?"

"In fact, you can entrust other merchants to sell on their behalf, so that the cost is lower."

The guild clerk raised his eyes to see "mad rat", but did not expose his words. Green is right. If taxes are taken into account, the commission cost will be lower, but the profit may be reduced more. But the man in front of him, Mike, is a smart man with his own ideas. He should also understand the truth.
