031 Slap to a candy

Early the next morning, just after dawn, Jiangxi Lin wrapped up his coat and walked into the biting cold wind.

It takes at least two hours to walk from where he currently lives to the Shiban Road Post Office in Baishi District. Of course, he can choose to take a car, but he has no money.

Yes, no money, this is a flaw.



Shiban Road in Baishi District is a typical civilian neighborhood. The houses on both sides are low but neat.

The street between the houses on both sides is very narrow, and there are dense ropes hanging over the street, and the ropes are covered with clothes hanging to dry.

As Jiang Xilin walked through the crowded narrow streets, he had to pay attention to his side from time to time in case someone suddenly splashed dirty water on the street.

The post office is at the east end of this street. It is an independent three-story building.

A metal sign hung at the door, which read: Kingdom Post Office.

Of course, this is just the name Jiangxi Lin translated based on the Chinese context and common sense. In fact, according to the semantics of this world, it can also be literally translated as Kingdom Delivery Department.

In fact, these are all innocuous and trivial matters. The serious matter is a letter from Jiangxi Lin that he wants to send to the royal capital.

When you walk into the Kingdom Post Office, there is a facility similar to an information desk on the left hand side.

A woman wearing dark black professional clothes and long wavy blond hair asked with a smile,

"Sir, how can I help you?"

"I want to send a letter."

"Where do I need to send it?"

"Royal Capital Christa."

"Please go to the service desk No. 02, which is the counter dedicated to handling shipments to the Royal Capital."

The consultant reached out politely and gracefully to point out the direction to Jiang Xilin.

"Thanks."

Jiangxi Lin nodded with a smile and walked to the service desk No. 02 pointed by the consultant.

The salesman is a man in his early fifties. He has a large bald patch on his head, his short blond hair is sparse and mottled, and there are wrinkles around his eyes and forehead. However, his service attitude is courteous and courteous.

He first gave Jiang Xilin a detailed introduction to the post office's comprehensive business, and finally learned that Jiang Xilin only mailed a letter without showing any dissatisfaction.

"Sir, the mail service is three copper buckles."

The price of three copper buttons and a letter is not expensive.

Jiangxi Lin paid three copper buckles and told the service clerk the mailing address.

The salesman turned around and took out a manual small stamping machine. After formatting the mailing address, he put on the iron plate and broke the rocker.

With a click, the mailing address was printed directly on the thin iron sheet.

"Sir, please give me your envelope."

Jiangxi Lin handed over the small cloth bag containing the letter.

The salesman took it and hung the small iron piece with the address information printed on it.





After sending the letter, Jiang Xilin didn't linger much and went straight back.

After all, I don’t have money to go shopping.

Counting the time, the day of the secret gathering of the Bright Arcane School was almost here, and the invitation letter had not yet been sent to him. Jiangxi Lin did not believe that Reva Kanter and the others did not know his new address.

He was probably waiting for me to find him.

It's impossible to take the initiative on your own. Jiang Xilin's plan is also very simple. Just waste it like this. It won't cost him anything anyway.

However, what he did not expect was that when he first returned to his new residence, he found Reva Kanter, who had some inconvenience in his legs and feet, standing upright at the door.

When he saw Jiang Xilin come back, he didn't say anything. He opened his windbreaker and took out the invitation letter, and threw it to Jiang Xilin.

"We must find out the important research project that is going on. This is an order from above."

Jiang Xilin took the small cloth bag containing the letter and put it into his pocket.

"Okay, no problem."

On the surface, he nodded in agreement, but in his heart he was very dissatisfied.

That is an order given to you by your superiors. It has nothing to do with me, a dispensable non-staff member.

Reva Kanter probably knew some of Jiang Xilin's thoughts. He wanted to say something threatening and warning, but in the end he took out two gold shields from his pocket and handed them over.

"One is the salary promised to you, and the other is the activity fee for you."

Oh wow, so generous, there is even an activity fee.

Jiang Xilin couldn't help but smile a little on his face. However, when he reached out to pick it up, Reva Kanter suddenly took it back and said with a solemn and serious expression, with a hint of threat and warning,

"Money is a good thing, but you have to live to enjoy it. If you do things for us, no matter what situation you encounter, we will keep you alive."

Jiangxi Lin has seen and used this low-ranking method many times.

"Don't worry, I can still tell which is more important."

Jiang Xilin said something that Reva Kanter wanted to hear and liked to hear, and successfully deceived him into getting two gold shields.

Afterwards, Reva Kanter told him some information that he thought he might need. Jiang Xilin listened carefully, then analyzed and summarized it in his brain to extract information useful to the current situation.

"By the way, what's wrong with your eyes?"

Suddenly, Reva Kanter asked this question.

Jiang Xilin knew that he was asking about "smoky makeup", so he answered casually,

"If you don't get enough rest, learning arcane energy formations takes too much energy."

"You still need to take breaks. Only with enough energy can you better complete the tasks assigned to you by the organization."

Listen to what they said, Jiangxi Lin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

This familiar sentence pattern, this concerned tone, isn't this what he often said to his employees when he was a project manager in his previous life?!

Damn it, what's going on with this guy? Why did he collect all the leftovers from his fun today?

He pretended to be flattered, nodded repeatedly and thanked "sir" for his concern, and repeatedly promised that no matter how difficult the task was, it would be completed perfectly.

This dog-leg operation made Reva Kanter feel so comfortable that when he left, he was given an extra Yin Lang as transportation allowance.

Jiangxi Lin put his right hand in front of his eyes and looked at the two gold, one silver and three coins in his palm, feeling very happy.

Recently, I have been able to live a "luxurious" life with a lot of money. This is the advantage of no old age, no young age, and no female vote in the middle.

As for the important research project of the School of Light and Arcana that Reva Kantor asked him to investigate...

Haha, who is Reva Kanter? I don’t remember?

Haha, I must be joking if I don’t remember. There must be an investigation, but how to investigate, how much energy and how much time to spend depends on your mood.

Jiang Xilin is a very suspicious person. He will not feel that Reva Kanter really wants to absorb him into the Night Knights of the Kingdom just because he paid them money and showed concern for him.

Those who should be opposed will eventually confront each other. He and Reva Kanter have already reached the point where only one of them can survive.
