"Hello, boss!" Master Bo Fengshui wore a smile on his face as he walked over elegantly like a cheerful big boy.
Well, Minato, who was not married yet, could be considered a big boy.
Ye Xuan raised his head and looked at Minato, a professional smile on his face. "Hello, customer, how can I help you?"
Minato looked at Ye Xuan and felt that Ye Xuan was unexpectedly young. "May I ask if all the wood carvings in this shop are carved by you?"
Why ask when you know it's rude?
He cursed in his heart, but the professional smile on his face did not change. "Yes, customer!"
"That's great!" Although he was a little surprised that all the cartoon wood carvings in the shop were carved by this young boss, Minato still said happily, "It's like this, I would like to ask you to carve a special wood carving for me. Is that possible?"
"Of course, this shop has launched a 'private order' service. You can order a unique wood carving that you like." Ye Xuan smiled. "Of course, because it's a private order, it's unique, so the price will be more expensive than in the shop. Please consider it, customer."
The reason why he added this last sentence was because when he launched this "private order", Ye Xuan set the price a little higher. Although it was easy for him to carve anything, sometimes it was a special service after all, so he naturally had to show the value of the special service.
And because of this value, there were originally many people who wanted to ask about this "private order" service, but after hearing that the price was five times that of ordinary wood carvings, they immediately dispelled the idea.
"Money is not a problem!" Minato smiled with some wealth. After all, he was now a Jonin, and he still had some savings. "Please don't help!"
"Of course not a problem!" The smile on Ye Xuan's face grew wider when he saw Fengshui Gate's reaction. He had already made up his mind to extort a fortune from Fengshui Gate and teach him the principle of not showing off one's wealth. Then he said, "What would you like to carve?"
"Enmmm … I want to carve a person … Emmnn." Bo Fengshui thought for a while, then looked at Ye Xuan and gestured. "About this tall, long red hair …"
Ye Xuan's mouth twitched as he watched Kamui Kamui gesticulating. It was obvious that Kamui Kamui wanted to carve his girlfriend, Maelstrom Jiuhina. After Kamui Kamui gestured for a while, he said, "Customer, do you have a photo of the person you want to carve? Or maybe she's fine too."
"Photos?! Yes, yes! " Not until he had heard Ye Xuan's words did he realize what was going on. He hurriedly searched his body and took out a photo from his wallet. In the photo, there was a pretty girl with long red hair, wearing a colorful kimono, and she looked gentle and pretty.
Ye Xuan took the photo and looked at it. Then he said, "That's her, right? That's fine. Do you want to carve according to the image in the photo, or some other image? Do you want it to be reduced in size, or do you want it to be the original size?"
"En, the image in the photo is fine. As for the scale, follow the real person's scale!" Kamui Kamui said after thinking for a while.
Ye Xuan looked at Kamui Kamui, blinked, and said, "The person in the photo should be your girlfriend, right? May I know why you want to carve this?"
"Uh, it's her birthday in about a month. This is a gift I want to give her!" Kamui Kamui scratched the back of his head and said with some embarrassment.
Birthday gift?
A wooden sculpture of the same scale?
Alright, as long as you like it!
Ye Xuan twitched the corner of his mouth when he had heard Bo Fengshuimen's words. Then looking at Bo Fengshuimen, he said, "My client, due to the difficulty of your wood carving, I need about twenty days to complete your commission."
"Alright, that's fine!" Kamui Kamui nodded.
"Because of the difficulty of your wooden sculpture, the price is one hundred and fifty thousand liang. Our shop's rule is that you need to pay a third of the price as a deposit, which is fifty thousand liang. Thank you!" Ye Xuan smiled at Kamui Kamui.
"One … one hundred and fifty thousand liang?" Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Kamui Kamui was startled, and a trace of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
He originally thought that this kind of wooden sculpture wouldn't be too expensive. After all, ordinary small wooden sculptures only cost about three to five thousand liang. There were also slightly more expensive ones that cost about thirty to fifty thousand liang. He didn't expect that his customized one would cost one hundred and fifty thousand liang.
One hundred and fifty thousand liang was already enough to post an A-level mission in Konoha's mission hall.
Even if he was now a Jonin and could take on A-level missions, although the reward of an ordinary A-level mission might be more than one hundred and fifty thousand liang, don't forget that when taking on missions in the village, Konoha would need to collect taxes. The general rule was about twenty percent tax.
In other words, if the reward for completing an A-level mission is one hundred and fifty thousand liang, then the real reward from the mission hall would only be one hundred and twenty thousand liang.
And this is not the final reward, because it also needs to calculate the travel time of the mission, the loss on the way of the mission, and the distribution of rewards for the mission personnel and so on.
Generally, A-level missions are related to war, assassination, or escorting important people. This will definitely require killing, and the consumption of ninja equipment alone is a huge expense. A shuriken is eighty liang, an ordinary kunai is 170 liang, a smoke bomb is 480 liang, and a detonating talisman is 3500 liang. Sometimes, kunai and shurikens are scattered, and that is not scattering ninja equipment, it is scattering money.
Not to mention detonating talismans, sometimes more than ten detonating talismans are needed to make a trap. If you encounter an escort with a fierce battle, sometimes you may even lose money doing the mission.
Moreover, when escorting, there will be two to three ninjas escorting together. Although it is always one Jonin and two Genin, but the Genin still need to be given some reward, so the reward is even less.
Minato calculated that the total reward of an A-level escort mission he took not long ago was two hundred and fifty thousand liang, but after adding everything up, he actually only earned about one hundred and twenty thousand liang.
In other words, the last time he went to the Land of Lightning, he spent a total of nearly one and a half months, experienced three ninja battles, and painstakingly killed two Jounin ninjas and dozens of bandits, but in the end, it was not enough to pay for this wood carving.
Looking at the young man in front of him looking at him with a smile, Minato felt a little heartache, but he still took out fifty thousand liang from his wallet and handed it over.
Looking at Minato slightly trembling as he handed over the money, Ye Xuan's face couldn't help but show a bright smile …
