Chapter 172 Insect Killing Battle

"It's not good to take your things for nothing..." Joan felt a little sorry.

"Those old furniture are really nothing, treat me as a friend, don't mention money to me!"

Thomas deliberately pretended to be unhappy, and did not smile again until Joan made a concession.

Thomas is really generous. When he made friends, he never cared whether the other party was poor or rich. Anyway, no one had as much money as him, so why bother?

Joan is also really poor, so he won't be polite to this rich young master. I went to the yard where the furniture was piled up to pick and choose. First, I saw a nice chest of drawers that could be used as a bookcase. There is also a clothes hanger, two iron basins, and a half-new cypress box—the height is moderate, and it can just be stuffed under the bed to hold needles, threads, and other sundries.

Qiao An moved all these furniture to the attic, and originally wanted to take a few more pieces, but the small attic was already full, so he had to give up.

Edward Gates rented the first floor and the basement of the dormitory, with an ambitious plan to transform the basement into his own private laboratory.

But when he walked into the basement and saw the rats scurrying majestically at his feet, his ambition was hit hard and he escaped in a panic. He closed the stair door leading to the basement and wanted to add a lock to prevent the rats from running away. Get out and get into his bathtub.

"Mr. Gates, a wooden door can't stop rats. This old house looks good, but it's actually a serious problem. Rats, cockroaches and termites are breeding wildly in the corners we can't see." Joan reminded Edward casually.

He held a broom in his hand, carried a bucket, wore a headscarf, and wore the apron he had brought on before leaving home. He looked like a pretty little maid who was about to go upstairs to clean up when he spoke.

"Mr. Vader, please wait a moment!"

Edward Gates called Joan, looked him up and down, rubbed his hands a little embarrassedly and said: "You see, my servants will not come to the school to help me clean up until tomorrow afternoon, but before that... I can't sleep at the thought of rats, cockroaches and termites sharing the same room as me, Mister Vida, are you going to do the cleaning yourself?"

"Yes, Mr. Gates, I suggest you clean the room yourself, it's not difficult."

"No, no, this is not suitable for me...To be honest, I really hate the three kinds you just mentioned...Well, three very annoying little villains, just looking at them from a distance I can't help getting goosebumps..." Edward's face was full of disgust, and he completely lost the aura of a mighty and proud officer.

"Are you afraid of mice?" Joan looked at Edward in disbelief.

Big man six feet tall, afraid of mice?

"There are also cockroaches, termites, and all other pests, all of which are intolerable!" Edward stomped his feet in frustration, observed Joan's face, and asked tentatively: "You come from the countryside, and you must have often dealt with these small pests, do you have any?" How to deal with them?"

"Like a cat?"

"No no! I hate cats, and any pets that shed hair, they give me rhinitis."

"Then it can only rely on magic or insecticide."

"Magic?" Edward looked at Joan suspiciously, "Do you still have magic to catch mice and bugs?"

"Theoretically yes, but I haven't tried it, and the same goes for insecticides."

Joan had seen the formula of special medicine to eliminate cockroaches and termites in Mr. Kalandil's medical book, but he had never prepared this medicine himself. After all, these kinds of pests are everywhere in the countryside. After one wave is killed, another wave will come again. There is no way to cure them, so we simply leave them alone.

"There is always a first time in everything, Mr. Vader, you might as well try the spells and medicines to kill rodents and insects in our dormitory, which will be of great benefit to improving our living environment." Edward looked eagerly joan.

Joan nodded, thinking about where to start this large-scale cleaning project, Thomas walked down the stairs with a cold face, looking at Edward with obvious hostility.

"Mr. Gates, please allow me to remind you that Joan is your classmate, not a servant. No matter what your background is, everyone is equal on campus. You have no right to ask him to clean your room, just as I have no right to ask You do the same."

Edward Gates blushed, stood up suddenly and tried to explain: "I didn't mean that, I just asked Mr. Vader for a favor!"

"Oh, so that's the case! I misunderstood, please accept my apology." Thomas bowed and apologized to Edward seriously, "But having said that, it seems that your friendship with Joanne is not so good that you can casually ask him for help. We are all mages, and time is precious, so you have the nerve to ask people to work for nothing?"

"Are you mocking me? Mr. Chap! I don't understand why you deliberately target me, and I don't want to associate your hostility towards me with draft results or some kind of jealousy, but..." Edward Coughed excitedly.

"You think too much, Mr. Gates, I swear to the gods, I am not jealous of you at all, I just think it is necessary for me to help Joann win the respect he deserves, my friend is too simple, too Kindness, I can't just watch him being bullied and keep silent."

"You are really a chivalrous knight, respectable Mr. Chap!" Edward said with sarcasm, but at the same time he seemed very helpless, "But what do you want me to do? Originally, I planned to spend a sum of money to pay Mr. Vader Help drive away rats and vermin, but think about it, if I really ask for money... what would Mr. Vida think, wouldn't he think I'm vulgar and ridiculous, wouldn't he feel that he was insulted?"

"Of course not!" Joan couldn't help but rushed to answer.

Edward froze for a moment.

Thomas froze for a moment, then laughed.

"I have been used to doing housework since I was a child. We are all classmates. If you have anything to ask me for help, you are welcome. As long as I am free, I will try my best."

Qiao An held back the last half of the sentence: It would be even better if there was some reward!

Edward shrugged his shoulders and said with a wry smile: "It seems that I am thinking too much, Mr. Vida, is one hundred gold Dujia enough to buy the raw materials for pesticides?"

How can I use 100 Gold Durga?

10 Kindurga is enough!

However, Joan was not stupid. Of course, it could be heard that Edward was asking him in a subtle way if he was satisfied with the reward.

"The 100 gold duo is a little less, I will add another 100, Joan, add more insecticide, and spray my room, I don't want to wake up when I dream of kissing a beauty one night, I found a big cockroach on my lips."

Thomas' joke was a bit vulgar, but he managed to make Joann laugh.

Edward couldn't laugh, and angrily scolded Thomas for his vulgar words and his mind full of vulgar tastes. Just thinking about the scene he just described made his skin crawl with nausea.

A new life begins.

My liver hurts a little these days, please comfort me.

Tomorrow, I will strive to get four chapters out, and I will try my best.
