Although Rin had been extremely cautious and even asked Red A to monitor Matou Residence all night, when morning came, he still got accurate information from Red A that Shinji Matou and Sakura Matou, who had been staying at home all night, were missing.
Rin felt angry for no reason when he heard the phone call coming from downstairs, which was expected to be either Holy Church or Britain, from the moment he woke up.
The culprit escaped the next day!
But I still have to deal with these messy chores because of my identity (Fuyuki Leyline manager)!
It's like wiping someone's butt!
After hammering her pillow as if it were Shinji Matou for ten minutes, Rin felt that the anger in her heart was slightly released.
"Really! It's so troublesome!"
After spitting bitterly, Rin reluctantly got up.
"Moses Moses, it's double... ahem...Tohsaka, right? I have a little something to trouble you with..."
Listening to Shinji's voice on the other end of the phone, Rin was so angry that he immediately roared out, "You have the nerve to call me for help after leaving such a mess! Shinji Matou, you'd better not come back! If you dare to come back, I will..."
"You are the manager of Fuyuki Leyline, right? You should handle these things, right?"
Listening to Shinji's matter-of-fact tone, Rin's silver teeth were almost broken, but when he thought about it, it did make sense. These things should really be handled by himself!
Rin felt more and more aggrieved the more he thought about it, and finally gave up the urge to smash the phone to vent his anger. After all, although reinstalling a phone was not too expensive, it was not a small fortune either.
"Rin, coffee."
Looking at the coffee being handed from the side, Rin instantly found a new outlet for her emotions.
"It tastes terrible! Brew it again!"
Red A was a little helpless and said, "No, haven't you started tasting it yet?"
"Do you still need me to taste it? This doesn't taste good! Go and brew it for me again! If the brewing is not good, you should stay in spirit form for the past few days! Go quickly!"
Red A didn't argue any more, turned around and silently went to make coffee again. After all, he understood clearly that this master was spreading his anger against someone on himself!
Listening to Rin's voice on the other end of the phone, Shinji, who was queuing up to check in with Sakura and Rider wearing sunglasses and casual clothes at the airport, almost laughed out loud.
"Tohsaka, my house is going to be renovated recently. The decoration team will come in the afternoon. Please keep an eye on the budget... I put a check of one billion on the table in the living room on the second floor. I also don't want any furniture or appliances in the house. If you don't want to bother, just ask the decoration team to throw them all away. That's it, bye~"
After saying that, before Rin over there could get angry, Shinji hung up the phone, then turned back to look at Sakura who was still urging her, and smiled softly.
"Let's go, Sakura."
"Yeah!"
The camera returned to Tohsaka Residence at this time, and Shinji was right. Rin was indeed on the verge of breaking out at this time, but due to some reasons, he had not completely gone berserk yet.
"Archer, do you know about decoration?"
"Huh?" Red A, who had just handed over the newly brewed coffee, looked confused.
"Hey... forget it, you can just be a handyman and work with the decoration team. You can save a lot of money." After saying that, Rin suddenly thought of something, and then said, "Also, the job of finding professional second-hand appliances and furniture recycling will be left to you! You must carefully choose the one with the highest recycling price! It is the highest price! And you have to act fast! It will be done within today! Do you understand?!"
"Uh... let me ask first, Rin, what do you want to do?"
"Don't worry about it yet! Keep listening to me. The first task is to go to the Matou Family quickly and get me the check on the table in the living room on the second floor! The second thing is to find a professional second-hand appliance recycling! It must be the one with the highest price! If I lose a penny..."
Looking at Rin, whose expression suddenly became a little worse and became extremely unfriendly, Red A didn't ask any more questions and just turned around and went to work.
Looking at the check in his hand - mainly the long series of zeros, Rin was still in a daze.
So much money... this is really the first time I've seen it!
"Archer, have you seen all the appliances and furniture in his home?"
"Well, I've done a simple assessment. Except for a water heater that seems to have been vandalized, the rest of the things are in good condition, and some things are still new."
"Fix it for me..."
"What?"
"I said fix it for me, and you can sell it at a high price only if you fix it, right? Come to me quickly! You have to fix it for me before the workers who come to collect the second-hand home appliances you are looking for come to your door!"
Looking at Rin, who was breathing heavily and with wide eyes, and it seemed like only a small amount of money was left in his eyes, Red A wanted to give some advice, but in the end he gave up and left again honestly.
Afternoon, Matou Residence.
"What?! The decoration drawings have been finalized a long time ago? The materials, public expenses, furniture, electrical appliances, etc. have all been decided in advance? A total of 900 million... more than 998 million?!"
The corners of Rin's eyes twitched, and his head was covered with black lines. He looked in disbelief at the workers in hard hats leading the construction team in front of him.
I originally wanted to discuss with the other party to reduce the cost as much as possible, and I would take the opportunity to earn some price difference, so that I could briefly enjoy the feeling of becoming a rich man in the near future, but I didn't expect...
Unexpectedly, in addition to the forty gems obtained from recycling furniture and electrical appliances, I would only earn four more gems at most?!
Just four?
I defeated the rich man and got four gems?
At this moment, Rin was already sure that he had been tricked by Shinji.
Looking at Rin who clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and had some kind of unhappiness on his face, Red A, who was wearing black casual clothes, also smiled helplessly and shook his head slightly, with a feeling of "Yeah, yeah, yeah" on his face.
However, how could all this escape Lin's eyes? Lin's mind turned around and he quickly thought of some good idea.
"Are you short of workers?"
When he heard Rin's words, Red A's heart skipped a beat.
broken! It's going to happen!
"Worker?" The leader of the engineering team asked in confusion, but then he thought of something, "In that case, there is indeed one less person. The guy who was originally wielding the sledgehammer did not come because he had reached his waist..."
"What do you think of this one?" Rin pointed to Red A with a smile on her face, "He's strong and down-to-earth, and you don't have to take care of the food. There's no problem with being a porter or anything like that!"
"Rin..."
Red A was about to say something, but Rin glared at her and swallowed it down.
"Hey? Is that okay? When I saw him moving the sofa outside just now, I could see that he was very strong..."
"Yes! Yes, yes! Absolutely yes!" Lin assured her chest, and then cut to the topic of greatest concern. "Uncle, let's talk about wages next. How much is the big hammer? How much is the small hammer?"
Red A:...
The original one-month construction period was reduced to twenty-five days due to the participation of Red A!
On the day Matou Residence's house was decorated, Rin also got the fruits of Red A's labor, which cost him about fifty gems!
Of course, the amount of 25 million is not considered an underpayment.
Most of the one billion budget is for labor materials, furniture, and electrical appliances. The proportion of labor costs is actually not high. The wages settled for Red A are indeed not discounted.
Seeing Rin's happy look, Red A suddenly felt that nearly a month's work was worth it.
It's just that recently I feel more and more comfortable using the hammer. This problem has become more and more serious.
I was originally an archer!
"Hey~ It would be great if I could make this much money every month~"
After hearing Rin's emotion, the smile on Red A's face froze for an instant, especially the way the other party looked at him after counting the money, which really made him feel a little chilled down his back.
"The matters between the Mage's Association and Holy Church have been settled, and they have already gone on spring break..."
Seeing Rin starting to think about where he could go to work and make money, Red A also turned around quickly, leaving a sentence of "I went to patrol the streets" before turning into a spirit and disappearing from the house.
"Also..."
Rin suddenly thought of something again, held his forehead and sighed. After all, he is the manager of the spiritual land Fuyuki, and he needs to monitor whether there are any abnormal situations at all times...
"Then again, that bastard hasn't come back yet? He won't come back in less than a month? Is he traveling? It sounds a bit envious..."
On April 8th, Fuyuki City's international airport welcomed Shinji's group who had been "wandering" for a month.
"It's great, it's great, it's really great!"
As soon as he arrived at the exit, Shinji, dressed in tropical casual clothes - floral shirt, straw hat, sunglasses, and shorts, stretched out.
"Yeah! What a pleasant trip! Rider thinks so too, right?"
Sakura, who was holding Shinji's arm, wearing a pink summer dress and a white lady's hat, was also smiling very happily.
Of course this is just the surface.
The other side behind the scenes is gnashing of teeth:
Cut! Even if I pestered my brother to catch up on my homework for a month at night, I still didn't make any progress! hateful!
"Well, it's very pleasant."
Rider's voice was not loud and he still spoke very few words.
Of course, she also had a rare strange emotion in her heart. Because Sakura was too clingy to Shinji, she didn't find a chance to compete with him for a whole month!
Even if there were some small opportunities, they would just hurriedly compete with each other behind Sakura's back, and the true skills of both parties were never used!
Looking at the luxury car parked on the roadside, Shinji smiled slightly and took the lead to walk over.
"Okay, let's go back. The house should be decorated."
"Yeah!"
Looking at the brand-new, almost unrecognizable Matou Residence, Sakura couldn't help but widen her eyes. Without waiting for Shinji to speak, she excitedly opened the door and trotted into the yard, looking around.
As for Shinji, he opened the mailbox at the door. Inside was not only the key to his home, but also a small package that had just been delivered here today.
After throwing the package into System Space, Shinji shook the key in his hand towards Sakura who was standing outside the door impatiently.
"Sakura, the key is here."
Just after he finished speaking, Shinji suddenly realized that Rider on the side had just given him a very obscure but very easy-to-understand look or look...
