Mage Joan
Chapter 16: The magic of the grocery store
There is a shop specializing in leather processing in Delin Town, and the owner, Mr. Longfellow, is the best tanner in the town. The wild beasts Joan hunted in the woods on weekdays, if the fur is well preserved and the texture is passable, he will always take the prey to the leather shop for the first time and sell the hides to Mr. Longfellow. The peeled rawhide becomes soft leather after many processing procedures such as washing, tanning, and drying. It can be used to make dresses, bags, boxes, or ladies' jewelry.
Thanks to Mr. Longfellow's skill, the leather shop business is booming. The wolf skin cloak that Joan wore was custom-made at this store. The raw materials were provided by him, and only two gold coin processing fees were paid to Mr. Longfellow.
Joan used to come to the leather shop to sell badger skins, and he still knows the market well, but the violent badger is much larger than the ordinary badger. He can sew three cloaks with less skin, even Mr. Longfellow. They were all amazed, and even sighed that this was the biggest badger he had seen in two years.
With the assistance of two tanner apprentices, it took Mr. Longfellow more than half an hour to strip off a whole skin intact, and finally paid Joan exactly 10 Kinduga.
Joan was very satisfied with the price and dragged his sled to leave without bargaining with Longfellow. There were two blood-stained sacks piled on the sledge, which contained ferocious badger meat that had been peeled off and split into two large pieces. Joan wants to take advantage of the freshness of the meat and deliver it to the "golden trout" tavern run by Uncle Baker to sell for a good price.
The violent badger peeled off, the bones and offal were removed, and there were about three hundred pounds of net meat left. The purchase price of the tavern was one pound of badger meat and 5 copper coins. Joan sold the badger meat and earned 16 gold duga.
A violent badger brought Joan 26 Duga's income in total, which was an unprecedented extra money. According to Joan's original intention, the money should be divided into half to Kandy. However, Kandy's resignation was very firm, and he found an excuse that seemed reasonable, saying that the money was used to offset the cost of his boarding at Joan's house. Kandy was born in a noble world, and she didn’t want to lack money. Joan had to make up for tuition before April. The economic pressure was so great that she would not be polite to her.
With some cash in hand, Joan's first thought was to go to the grocery store to find Aunt Barbara and repay the credit for buying bread and honey in the morning.
Aunt Barbara was surprised that he ran to pay the bill so quickly, and repeatedly asked Joan if she really made money, but could not be hungry to protect her face. Joan had to briefly describe the hunt for the violent badger, so that the overzealous aunt Barbara could rest assured.
Out of gratitude to Aunt Barbara, and also considering that there is a guest at home, she can’t let Conti eat nibble with her all day. Joan buys many foods in the grocery store that he usually can’t eat, including ham, Sausages, bacon, butter, and whole pieces of cheese like wheels, Lin Lin always installed a basket. In total, these foods cost less than 5 gold dugas, and 20 sparkling gold coins remained in Joan's pocket. This money is still far away from thousands of tuition fees, but the expenses of being a family of three are more generous.
The purse jingled, and Joan's mind was alive, unable to help walking to the next door to the food counter, deliberately examining the counter dedicated to displaying books and magical objects.
Aunt Barbara’s grocery store is also engaged in currency exchange and **** business. There are often adventurers who pass by the town to send the rare things obtained during the journey to the grocery store. If you have good eyesight and a little luck, you will have It may be that they found good things in the messy consignment goods-this is how the trick scroll that led Joan to the path of the mage.
Joan is a regular customer in front of the consignment shelf, but because of his shyness, he usually just looks at it. In fact, most of the sundries displayed on the shelves are of little practical value. Coupled with the generally high price tag, they are rarely sold.
Joan glanced at the shelves, not surprisingly seeing many old and old goods, not worthy of too much attention, but there are a few new things that caused his curiosity.
Joan first picked up a roll of white linen and leaned in front of his nose to sniff, with a faint fragrance of herbs. I asked Aunt Barbara only to know that this is a new invention by the town's pharmacist and doctor Mr. Kailandier, called "First Aid Bandage". It is used to bandage wounds. It has the effect of quickly stopping bleeding and preventing inflammation. Each roll of bandage is sold Five gold coins.
If Aunt Barbara’s introduction didn’t boast too much, Joan thought the bandage was practical, but the price was too expensive, and he had no plans to venture out for the time being, and he didn’t need it.
The next thing that caught Joan's interest were three strange objects that exuded a slight magic aura. The shelf labels read "Veteran's Cane", "Human Face Shield", and "Magic Hat".
The veteran cane looks like an ordinary wooden cane. The holder will recite a specific start mantra, and the cane will automatically become a sharp sword made of stainless steel for 15 gold coins.
The human face shield is slightly flattened compared to the ordinary small round shield, and has an oval shape. There are two belts on the back. It is used to tie the shield to the arm to fix it. It hardly prevents the wearer from waving arms or casting gestures. The shield is made of hardwood skin, which has a certain blocking effect on arrows and swords. The peculiar thing is that the shield is painted with a thick eyebrow and a serious face.
Perhaps it was because of the oblong shape of the shield itself, this supposedly majestic face was squeezed into a pancake face, adding a bit of ridiculousness-the more ridiculous thing is that when the shield bearer recites a specific The mantra, the face of this pie also changes, showing different expressions such as joy, anger, sadness and joy.
Joan shook his head, suspecting that the shield was the product of the producer's prank, and his eyes shifted to the slightly worn, pointed hat decorated with gold stars that was displayed next to "Human Shield."
According to Aunt Barbara, this "magic hat" is a performance prop of a street artist, which can show some simple magic effects. For example, if you stain the hat first, chanting a mantra will instantly become as clean as possible; besides, this hat can emit a strong and dazzling flash, or it can turn into the sound of several people arguing...
Joan picked up the magic hat and tried it with curiosity, and it did have the wonderful functions described by Aunt Barbara.
In the eyes of ordinary people, these magic effects are mysterious, and in the eyes of the caster like Joan, this hat is just enchanted with three zero-point tricks. After a long period of observation and speculation, Joan guessed that it was a "magic trick" to instantly restore the hat from dirty, and shooting a dazzling glare was the unique effect of "flashing", as to make a conversation out of nowhere. Most of the voices I think come from "phantom phonics" at work.
These little tricks are both fun and useful, and Joan is tempted by the magic hat, even if it is used to perform magic by visiting street artists to make extra money. However, when he saw that the price was as high as 25 gold Durga, he had to temporarily dismiss the idea of buying this magic hat, regain his consciousness of being a poor man, and squeezed his wretched money bag and turned away from the consignment shelf.
