1684 Occupation
I don't know how long I've slept.
When Raymond woke up, he felt a little dizzy, and then he felt hungry.
Brandi in his arms didn't know when he left, but there was only that lingering fragrance, proving that everything that happened before was real.
It was a romantic encounter. Even if there was a great joy between each other, neither of them had any responsibility or concern. Therefore, after taking a bath, Raymond prepared to leave.
But when he was wearing it in front of the mirror, the door was smashed by someone.
The hourly room was extremely secretive and unwilling to be disturbed. Raymond, who was so worried, opened the door and was about to get angry.
But the one standing at the door of the room was not the waiter here, but Augustus whom he had known in the club before.
Seeing that Raymond's uniform had not been completely fastened, Augustus, who pushed the door and walked in, looked at him up and down for a moment, then spoke in a strange tone. "Mitheus, you are really crazy! You were able to spend two days in the room with Blanche. Your physical fitness is simply strong and you can say nothing about it..."
"Have you been two days? No wonder I feel a little hungry..." Raymond, who closed the door and returned to the room, asked while continuing to tidy up his uniform. "How did you know that I am here? After leaving that day, I was a casual hotel..."
Augustus was a little surprised when he heard this. "Don't you know? Blanche's legs were still trembling when he returned to his residence, but she was laughed at by her companion Shirley for a long time. Could it be that you just got up?"
"You didn't see that I was going to wear clothes and leave. Although the price was clearly marked here, I would be driven back if I stayed for a few more days!"
As soon as Raymond finished speaking, he found that August's eyes were actually staring at the bracelet on his wrist, and his expression became more and more strange. He couldn't help but speak, "What's wrong?"
Looking up at Augustus, who looked at Raymond, he jumped up and shouted in an exaggerated manner, "Oh my God! It turned out that you paid the bill? This is impossible. Blanche, who is the general level, will not be stingy with such a few sacred coins! Their income is not comparable to that of us non-commissioned officers. Although I am not very capable, Shirley transferred a thousand sacred coins before I left..."
Hearing this, Raymond raised his hand, gently stroked the bracelet on his wrist, and then retrieved his sacred coin balance.
My eyes widened instantly. After paying the room fee for one day, I should have only had a balance of 300 sacred coins, but now it is more than 20,000!
Augustus, who came over to see the number, was shocked in his expression. After a moment, he shook his head and smiled bitterly and sat down again. "Tsk tsk, it's really a big deal! It seems that Blanche has reached the level of admiration for you. Otherwise, he would never have transferred so many things..."
Raymond, who understood that he was regarded as a cowherd and had completely blackened his face, was speechless.
"Only those guys with particularly strong bodies will be compensated by paying large sums of holy coins. It seems that you have the potential to engage in this profession. I believe that the legend about you will be left in the future..."
Augustus, who was just shaking his head and sighing, became more and more annoyed Raymond as he spoke. Augustus, who was about to speak, said in surprise. "Mitheus, do you say that you don't have such an idea?"
"Nonsense! Even if I accumulate holy coins, I can't get the qualification to go to the mother plane. Could it be that I'm just going to be decadent here!"
Augustus stood up in shock and looked at Raymond with a side face. He said in surprise. "Decadence? You don't care about such a way to make money? Oh my God, what are you thinking in your mind..."
"Didn't you tell me that day? Although it is difficult to accumulate sacred coins, you can't go to the mother plane without that kind of 'priority'. So what's the point of such a profession worthy of pride and continuing to do it!"
"That's true, but at least you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future..."
He muttered thoughtfully, but Augustus, who was increasingly embarrassed when he saw Raymond's expression, then he restrained his previous expression and said with a wry smile. "Mitheus, I was originally going to come here to introduce you to a job, but now you have such a savings, I don't know if it's appropriate..."
"Work? Can those on leave also get jobs and get paid in business districts?"
"Yes, if the life in the commercial district is known to most non-commissioned officers, then naturally there will not be many people performing tasks, because in fact, they simply provide some services here and can support long-term vacations. However, their reputation is much worse, and I also know that you don't have much savings to think of this..."
As he spoke, Augustus was carefully observing Raymond's expression. Seeing that he was not displeased, he continued to introduce. "One of the elderly settlers I saw in the club that day found me through someone else and wanted to help him find some guards and help him go to the epidemic area to find something. The reward is very high but the danger is also quite high!"
When talking about the 'epidemic area', August's voice was suppressed to the lowest point, but Raymond felt aroused in his heart, because according to the description, the epidemic area is an area that is extremely harmful to all vertical pupils, and no vertical pupils are allowed to enter at all, so he said strangely. "Can you still go to the epidemic area? Isn't it a strictly prohibited area?"
"Of course it's OK! It's just that only those who have just entered the commercial area can enter. And because of the ban, even if there are a lot of demand for this work, it's not easy to get all the staff to set off..."
After Augustus introduced the situation of the epidemic area, Raymond realized that this was an opportunity for him to leave District 31, so he asked about the situation of the employer.
"The employer is named Old Pier. His body has shown signs of collapse. However, because he is uneasy to accept his employment during this period, and there are not many non-commissioned officers who come to the commercial area for vacation, and there are very few who meet his requirements. And because every hired person must accept Old Pier's conditions, he has been dragged to the present..."
After understanding clearly, Raymond no longer delayed and prepared to meet this old Peel with Augustus.
However, when he came to the hotel lobby to prepare for the room payment, he found that Blanche not only settled the room payment in front, but also paid a week's fee. Not only did it make Augustus laugh as Raymond went over to check out, but even the waiter in the hotel looked extremely weird when the refund was refunded.
Raymond, with a dark face, was speechless when the refund was given to him.
Augustus, who saw the numbers, started to laugh after pulling him away and teased. "This is an hourly room, the longer the time, the higher the price it requires. Moreover, Blanche also specially assigned you to customize a week's nutritious meal. It seems that it is really good for you..."
Raymond, who is already familiar with Augustus, naturally would not be polite, so he started to scold him immediately. "Get out! If you have the ability, just do this. Blanche's companion Shirley is generous enough to take action, it's enough for you to be drunk here!"
Augustus laughed out loudly, but instead told his plans on the way to the old Peel residence with Raymond. "I knew this profession before, but I didn't have a huge net worth when I met before. This time, because of Shirley, I understood their wealth and generousness. I can really rely on this to try to persevere in the commercial area in the future..."
Unexpectedly, Raymond, who had such an idea, smiled bitterly. "Did Shirley introduce you to the guests?"
"How do you say it! What is a 'guest'? Shirley, who has the status of a general, can come into contact with many other general, and as long as she can come to me one or two every month in the future, the reward will naturally be generous. If she can meet a guy with 'priority', then I can go directly to the mother plane, it is much better than slowly ending the task..." (To be continued) r655
