Chapter 951: A Good Show (3) (Page 1/1)

"Then let's take out this last shipment!" Willie looked at Fett as if he had understood, nodded secretly, and lifted the gravity rule on Jason. If it weren't for the fact that he had a little karma with Fett and the others before, he wouldn't be willing to give advice.

"Three hundred newly minted silver coins, click on them. The three of them looked at each other, nodded, and each took out a money bag from their bodies and placed it on the counter.

After the three of them took their hands off the money bag, Willy jumped on a bench next to the counter, reached out and opened the money bag one by one, and poured all the silver coins inside on the counter.

Three hundred silver coins may not sound like much, but when they are piled up on the counter, they are also like a mountain of silver, and they are very visually striking, at least for someone like Alfie who has never seen so many silver coins at once.

("That's a lot of money!") Alfie swallowed.

"Hehe, so many potions you knocked out from Madison, and any bottle you took out is worth so much money. The girl couldn't help but tease when she saw that Alfie's eyelids were so shallow. Of course, her words were exaggerated, and although ordinary potions were worth a lot of money, they wouldn't use so many silver coins. But it wouldn't be impossible if Alfie labeled those potions as "the only precious potion made by the only Sanctuary apothecary". ）

Not to mention the girl's teasing of Alfie, at the counter, Willy turned the magic lamp to the brightest, rolled up his sleeve, held a magnifying glass in one hand, and carefully screened each silver coin.

After several previous transactions, the three Fett had long been accustomed to Willy's rigorous style, so they did not care at all, and their eyes scanned the surrounding shelves wantonly, trying to find one or two items of great value among the goods that could not be seen in age and function.

Willie was quick to sift through the silver coins, but after ten minutes, he turned his magnifying glass to the side and said to Fett, "There are two hundred and ninety-six new silver coins, and I count you three hundred and eighty-five old coins." ”

"What, Boss Willie, did you count wrong? Three hundred newly minted silver coins!" Jason shouted again.

"No, it's only two hundred and ninety-six, and as for these four—" Willy gently shoved the four silver coins he picked out to the three of them, "I'm sorry, these four should be fake!"

"Fake?" The faces of the three changed, everyone knew how serious Willy's accusation was, minting counterfeit money was a felony punishable by hanging in the laws of the Empire, and for so many years since the establishment of the Empire, no force had ever dared to take the risk of minting counterfeit money.

If what Willy said was true, they would be sent to the gallows unless they could find the suspect who turned in the four counterfeit coins.

"This can't be!" Fett's face changed drastically, and he threw himself at the four counterfeits, and with a shudder he picked up one and looked at it carefully, whether it was the luster, weight, or texture, he could not see anything unusual, it was clearly a genuine freshly minted silver coin.

"Boss Willie, are you mistaken?" asked Fett, swallowing his saliva, with a hint of luck in his heart.

"Mistaken, impossible!" Willy glared at Fett as if insulted, "I've never looked at anything since I became the boss of the Scarlet Rose, not even the mechanical creations of the Duchy of Bavaria, let alone ordinary silver coins." ”

"But it's clearly a real new coin!" Fett couldn't help but shout, and he even began to suspect that Willy was going to take advantage of the last trade to trick them.

Willie shook his head slightly: "If you can't believe me, then this transaction is canceled." ”

"Why don't you give you these four silver coins for free, and this incident will be treated as if it never happened?" Jason said. At this time, he knew better than Fett's mind to get them out of the counterfeit money first, no matter what.

"Do you want to charge me with buying counterfeit money?" asked Willy, his eyes narrowing in displeasure.

"No, no, no, we just want to make the deal happen. Jason hurriedly smiled.

"You take these four counterfeit coins, and I can act as if nothing happened. Willie gestured to the four silver coins.

"You're such a friend!" Jason immediately seized the opportunity to flatter. As long as Willie didn't report it, no one would know about it, and they wouldn't be sent to the gallows.

"You don't think I'm going back to report you, do you?" asked Willy, looking at their faces with a smile on their faces.

"You certainly wouldn't do this kind of thing that would affect your reputation. Fett also reacted at this time and hurriedly agreed.

"Unfortunately, even if I report it, it won't have any effect. Willie sighed softly, and if it was possible, he really wanted to send the three silverfish to the gallows. The matter of the city tax is only the tip of the iceberg, and it is conceivable that in other aspects, these three people are not good birds.

"Why?" asked Jill, who had been silent.

"Because these four silver coins are not even fakes. Willie picked up a magnifying glass and placed it on one of the counterfeit coins, motioning for the three to look through it.

The three of them only glanced at it, and their faces became extremely ugly, and under the magnifying glass, it was not a silver coin at all, but a round leaf.

"W-How is this possible?" Fett looked like he had seen a ghost, and his hand trembled and he almost threw the magnifying glass to the ground, "There's something wrong with your magnifying glass." ”

Willy didn't refute him, but put another real silver coin under a magnifying glass, and the answer was already obvious, the four silver coins that were picked out were definitely problematic.

"Nothing escapes the 'real magnifying glass', and it's just a trick that isn't very clever. Willie took the magnifying glass back from Fett's hand and put it away preciously, although this real magnifying glass is not a great treasure, but it is very useful.

Fett was completely messy by this time, and although Willy only said that it was a trick to get them to use a leaf as a silver coin, it was far beyond their acceptability.

"Could it be a legendary illusion?" Jason guessed uncertainly. Only a warrior of his level could barely come into contact with the high-level magic of illusion, and it was only after he had a personal experience in the desolate land during the day that he thought of illusion.

"It must be that fellow! that damn bard!" said Fett, gritting his teeth, "I remember, these four silver coins were also the entrance tax that the fellow paid!"

Jill gave Fett a disdainful look, he didn't believe that Fett could tell which of the three hundred identical silver coins was handed in by whom, this was definitely trying to find a way to shirk responsibility!
