Chapter 399: You Must Keep Your Word
"I say, friend, isn't this a bit too much?" The middle-aged wealthy merchant said with an unfriendly expression.
"Who is your friend? Having a big face doesn't mean that you can randomly climb up relations."
The middle-aged wealthy merchant widened his eyes in anger and thought, "Is Konoha so arrogant even when looking at the gate guards?"
At this time, the other guards saw that the two people were about to quarrel and quickly came over to persuade them in a low voice, "I say, Shinomiya Nee-chan, it's almost enough. If this matter is blown up, we will be the unlucky ones. We all know that you have a big background. After guarding for a month, you will leave, but you have to think for us brothers."
Aoba directly said in a bad mood, "Go to the side. Haven't you learned enough from last time?"
Upon hearing this, the guards could no longer remain calm and looked at the middle-aged merchant.
Could it be?
This time, no one dared to persuade him anymore. Instead, they quietly surrounded the middle-aged merchant in the middle.
After all, they had seen the ability of Aoba to catch spies. Even if they had doubts in their hearts, they could only hold it in before the results came out.
They were not afraid of ten thousand, but they were afraid of what if!
If another spy was added because of them, they would be too ashamed to stay.
After seeing this scene, the middle-aged rich businessman's expression changed slightly, and he felt uneasy.
But he didn't know what had happened. Why did the attitude of these guards suddenly change?
After thinking about it, he felt that the reason was definitely because of this greedy freak in front of him.
Thinking of this, he also admitted it. Wasn't it just money?
Compared to the mission he was going to carry out this time, money was not important at all.
Therefore, he immediately put on a fawning smile and moved closer to Aoba, saying, "Sir, may I have a word with you?"
"Mm, you guys keep an eye on this batch of goods. No one is allowed to pass without my orders."
"Yes!"Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
The middle-aged rich merchant's expression immediately turned cold.
This young handsome man was the one who was really good at speaking.
Could it be that he had ignored him when he was splitting the money at the beginning, so he was unhappy and deliberately wanted to mess with him?
The middle-aged rich merchant felt that his guess was almost right, and he was secretly annoyed at his bad luck.
After walking to a place far away from the crowd, the middle-aged rich businessman went straight to the point, "I offended you just now. How many things do you think can make you feel comfortable?"
The middle-aged merchant was shocked and finally woke up.
Then, he squeezed out a smile and said, "You really misunderstood me. I really am not a spy. But I like to make friends. There are 100,000 ryo here, and the goods are worth more than one million ryo. It is all a gift for me and my lord. What do you think?"
"Look, it's good to be like this earlier, but I can't take your things for free. How about this, you accept the payment, and we can consider it as money and goods."
After taking away the 100,000 ryo that the other party handed over, he opened his wallet and generously took out a hundred ryo.
The middle-aged wealthy businessman wanted to cry but had no tears. He nodded repeatedly and said, "We're even."
"Alright, hand over the goods and you can leave."
When the two of them returned, the middle-aged merchant announced that all the goods had been sold to Shinomiya-sama.
As for how much they sold, he had no face to mention it, nor could he mention it.
Although the subordinates he hired felt a little surprised, they did not think too much about it. Anyway, no matter how much money they sold, it was none of their business.
The other guards who had some guesses instantly widened their eyes and looked at Aoba with incomparable admiration.
So it turned out that this move was really fucking high!
It was as if they had opened the door to the new world and saw a completely different beautiful scenery.
However, even if they had the courage, they wouldn't dare to play like this.
Therefore, they could only be envious.
At this time, the middle-aged wealthy merchant was afraid that Aoba would go back on his words and asked, "Can I go now?"
"Let's go. Are you still waiting for me to treat you to tea?"
"No, no, no, let's go now."
The middle-aged wealthy merchant walked out on tenterhooks, but the thing he was worried about did not happen.
This made him heave a sigh of relief, and his mind immediately became lively.
Perhaps he could use money to bribe this guy next time?
At the same time, Morino Ibiki also quickly arrived when he received the news from Aoba's shadow clone.
"Where is he?"
"Here, he's still acting slowly outside." Aoba casually pointed. As a person, he had to keep his word. If he said he would let him go, he would let him go. But if he was caught by others again, it would be none of his business.
Morino Ibiki immediately glared at him and then rushed out with the others like hungry tigers pouncing on sheep.
