Chapter 471 Why not do it here
As the afternoon sun shone through the sky, at this moment, in front of the Adventurer's Association headquarters in Liyue Harbor, Sister Lan, the president of this branch, answered the questions of Sora and Paimon. At the same time, she looked at Ye Li, who was calculating the balance with an abacus in his hand, and said:
"It's been a while since we last met, Brother Ye Li. I didn't expect you to be busy with the work at Wangsheng Hall. No wonder I didn't see you taking any commissions."
"Long time no see, President Lan. Work and commission are two different things. Besides, the money earned from this work is more than the commission, so I will naturally choose to do the important ones."
"Hey, Ye Li, you and Sister Lan know each other?"
Paimon looked a little surprised, but Sora understood what the two were saying and explained to Paimon who was flying beside him:
"Mr. Ye Li is a registered adventurer, so it's normal for him to know Sister Lan."
"After all, they obtained their adventurer qualifications from me. Thanks to Ye Li, some of the more dangerous commissions were made easier for the adventurers here."
Faced with Sister Lan's praise, Ye Li didn't take it seriously, as if it was normal.
"We have asked all the questions that need to be asked, so we will not bother you any more. President Lan, if there is anything you cannot solve, please ask someone to get me a copy. I will solve it if I have time."
"Okay, after all, what you are going to do is to send the immortals away. It's a pity that without the Emperor, the monsters around will become more active."
"Don't worry. Liyue is a vast land with abundant resources. There are still many talented people. Moreover, even if the Emperor is gone, the age of the immortals will pass, and people will continue to move forward. This may be the only way to go from the age of immortals to the age of humans."
"That's right, I was overthinking it."
Ye Li and the other two said goodbye to Sister Lan, walked through the alley on the side of the Adventurers' Association headquarters, and arrived near the dock. Paimon also began to look around.
Paimeng looked around and happened to see a woman in purple clothes with purple petals embroidered around her collar setting up a stall at the corner of the pier. She had all kinds of tools on the stall and it was obvious that she was an expert.
Kong and Paimeng walked forward, but Ye Li did not follow them. In a way, it was better for them as colleagues not to meet each other. After all, there are still some taboos in the fortune-telling industry.
It's okay to meet each other normally, but it would be troublesome if you want to tell fortunes out of curiosity. Unless you are more capable than the other person, it would be difficult to break the cause and effect between the two.
Seeing that Ye Li didn't follow him, Kong didn't mind such a trivial matter, and with so many people it would easily attract attention.
Paimeng was a little confused, but she didn't think much about it. She just followed Sister Lan's instructions and flew to the stall of a woman named Qiming.
"What's the matter, you two? Do you want to have your fortune told?"
"Forget about fortune-telling. If you have time, Miss Qi Ming, could you answer a question for us?"
When Paimeng heard the word "fortune-telling", he turned around and glanced at Ye Moumou, and saw that the other party was just looking at him with a smile. When Kong asked the question, he also turned around and looked at Qiming.
"As for perfume, I don't usually use it, and I've never made it myself. Maybe it was the makeup on my body that caused some misunderstanding. Besides, if I use perfume, there will be a lot of lecherous sailors looking at me. I don't use perfume to protect myself."
"Oh, is that so? That's a pity."
Paimon was a little frustrated, and Kong was a little confused. They couldn't find any clues after asking all along. They were really confused.
Seeing the two people looking somewhat worried, Qi Ming thought of a well-known existence.
As the name of a famous Ying'er came out, Paimeng also remembered the Chunxiang Kiln store, and then he looked at Ye Li behind him who was holding an abacus and thinking about how to get more money from the young master for free.
If she remembered correctly, the sweet scent on Ye Li's fiancée, Miss Ye Ci, was specially made from Chunxiang Kiln.
Paimeng was a little annoyed that he had forgotten about this, but luckily someone reminded him. After saying something to Kong, he took Ye Li, who knew the way, and left first.
Kong felt somewhat helpless, and said to Miss Qiming, who was setting up a fortune-telling stall in front of him, with an awkward yet polite smile:
"Thank you very much for the information. If you have any requests in the future, you can go to the Adventurer's Guild and mention my name."
"You're welcome. If you have time, you can take care of my business. I'll give you a discount."
After saying goodbye to Miss Qiming, Kong trotted to the place where Paimon was waving at him. Ye Li waited expressionlessly, and then the three of them continued to head towards their destination.
Arriving at Chunxiang Kiln, Ye Li took out a bag of Mora, walked into the store and placed it on the counter, then looked at the receptionist and said:
"Please give me two copies of the ointment from last time. Remember, it must be of the best quality."
"Okay sir, please wait a moment."
Kong looked at Ye Li's skillful movements in confusion and couldn't help asking:
"Mr. Ye Li, judging from your actions, it seems that you have been to Chunxiang Kiln more than once."
"I can't help it. Mom will nag me if I don't complete my mission."
"From what I heard, Ye Li's mother is a very strict person."
"She's not strict, she's much more lively than the Walnut Hall Master. Even at her age, she looks like a young person."
Ye Li's complaints reminded Paimeng of Hu Tao's eccentric personality and her comments on Ye Li. Paimeng also expressed his disapproval of Ye Li's comments on his mother, and added a comment that Hu Tao had made:
"If that's the case, you're the exact opposite of your mother. You look young, but you seem to have entered old age. You won't move unless you're interested, like a salted fish."
"Instead of teasing me, someone has been waiting for you over there for a long time."
Ye Li's words immediately disrupted Paimeng's train of thought. Kong also waved his hand and called Paimeng to Ying'er's side.
Looking at the three people who were already interacting, Ye Li did not disturb them. He walked to the counter, took the packaged ointment, reached out to take out a token from his pocket, and communicated through the ripple signal connected by the rune.
Looking at Ye Li's handsome face and movements, the lady at the counter looked a little dazed, but Ye didn't care. He just looked at it and it wouldn't cost him anything.
As the communication was connected, Ye Li spoke:
"Master, I have received the ointment that Ye Ci asked me to buy. I will go to Wanmin Hall to find Xiangling to get it later."
"Ye Li Ke Qing, shouldn't you deliver the ointment yourself? Sister Ye Ci is still waiting."
"You know I'm working on something, but Zhongli has found an excuse to slip away. If I don't stay, the progress will be much slower. How can I get the money from you for free?"
"Speaking of the young master, how much money did he spend this time? Did you exaggerate it?"
When it comes to work issues, Hu Tao naturally asked actively, and Ye Li also answered very happily:
"Don't worry, with my eloquence and the things we want to buy, I can get the full 4.5 million for free."
"Wow, so much money, it can finally make up for the losses of Zhongli Guest Official in the past few years. Yeli, you are indeed my treasure guest official. My shameless entanglement in the past was really a wise move."
"Okay, it looks like they've finished their discussion over there, so I'll close the communication here first."
"Okay, you go ahead and do your work. I'll explain to Sister Ye Ci."
After hanging up the call, Ye Li looked at the people who were going to Wanmin Hall together and said:
"To be honest, I have always had a question in mind. To make perfumed ointment, can't we just go to the professional Chunxiang Kiln to get it done? Why do we have to go all the way to Wanmin Hall?"
Hearing Ye's question, Kong and Paimeng were stunned on the spot. Ying'er was also slightly surprised, then she covered her mouth and chuckled:
"Oh, this handsome boy is really frank, but the store has been busy recently and there are not many vacancies, so we can only go to Wanmin Hall."
