Mercenaries and Adventurers

Zhao Ji figured out the reason, and settled the score with Todd. Todd's account is simpler. For each slime monster, he can draw a copper coin from Zhao Ji. Although it is not much, there is no risk. .

Zhao Ji's account was a bit more troublesome. He took out his paper and charcoal pencil from his clothes, and recorded the serial number and amount of each slime monster.

Every slime inspected by the Punika craftsman was again rolled up with leaves by his apprentice, and then carefully packed into a sack. With the completion of the inspection records of each slime monster, Zhao Ji's approximate gains last night can be calculated.

There are 60 normal slime monsters, 2 small slime monsters with serious damage, and 2 strange slime monsters. Sixty normal slime punica artisans can make an envelope roughly equal to seventy slime monsters, since some slime monsters are still ok in size. As for the two slime monsters that were severely damaged, they couldn't be made into envelopes, so they could only be used as leftovers for the other envelopes.

For the other two slime monsters with strange colors, Punica craftsman does not recommend making them into envelopes. He can buy them directly at a price of 50 copper coins each. Zhao Ji agreed to the deal directly, and the money will be settled with him when he returns to the city, and other people present can serve as witnesses to supervise the deal.

In addition, Punika craftsmen also found four acid sacs of slime monsters in the bodies of these slime monsters. These four acid sacs are intact and unused. They can be sold to masons in the artisan area. They occasionally use this acid liquid to process some fine stone statues. As for the price, it will be up to Todd to negotiate.

Zhao Ji did the math, sixty slime monsters can make seventy copper coins, and each envelope is about ten copper coins, which is seven hundred copper coins. The two slime monsters of special colors are worth fifty copper coins each, which is also one hundred copper coins. Not counting the sour sac who didn't know the price, he had harvested 800 copper coins last night.

If he gets rich, the eight hundred copper coins are eight silver coins, plus one silver coin from his gambling capital and one silver coin he won.

Not counting the sixty-six copper coins that will be paid out to Todd, and the coating processing fee for the slime monster.

His possessions amounted to ten silver coins, which is one gold coin.

He hasn't earned a single gold coin in this different world yet. He had only seen the stewards of the chamber of commerce wearing gold coins as accessories in the chamber of commerce before. After all, gold coins were really not needed for transactions in daily life. In most cases, iron coins and copper coins were enough. Silver coins are considered large denomination coins.

The two apprentices put all the slime monster corpses into sacks, tied the mouth with ropes, and fixed them on the wheelbarrow.

The others gradually gathered around, and the middle-aged guard who hadn't seen him for a long time also came over.

Seeing that his leather boots were covered with water and swamp mud, Zhao Ji probably understood that he just went to see Zhao Ji's hunting place last night. I don't know what he saw. He must have never fought dozens of slime monsters before, right?

However, who cares, after earning this money, he, Zhao Ji, can change his shotgun to another gun. When he has a good set of equipment, he can hunt other beasts and monsters, and there is no need to fight with slime monsters.

He had had enough of the stench of the swamp these two days.

On the way back to the city, the group was very happy.

Zhao Ji is very happy thinking about his harvest, Todd thinks that his commission is like nothing, the Punica artisan is happy to get a job for his leather shop, and the middle-aged guard is thinking of Zhao Ji Surprised by the idea of ​​laying an easy passage over the swamp, the drinkers were proud that they had witnessed something worthy of a story.

Only the two apprentices are distressed, and the work has increased again.

-------------------------------------------------- --

The group parted with the middle-aged guards at the gate of the city,

The other city gate guards curiously asked the middle-aged guard what they had just seen. The drinkers returned to the Table Corner Tavern, while Zhao Ji and Todd followed the Punica artisans back to the leather shop.

The skinning rack in the tanning shop had been cleaned up by the remaining apprentices. The Punica craftsman nodded after seeing it, and then asked all the apprentices to help briefly dispose of the slime monster corpses brought back.

One of the corpses of two slime monsters with a specific color was in the Punika craftsman's pocket. At this time, the Punika craftsman found two wooden bowls and put them in, and then added some water to soak them in it. .

Craftsman Punica asked the two to wait a while, while he went to a large two-story house in the craftsman's district. Todd told Zhao Ji that it was the place where the managers of the artisan district stayed. Zhao Ji actually knew it, and he didn't need Todd's introduction. He worked part-time in the artisan area before, and knew a lot about the artisan area.

After a short while, the Punica craftsman came out with a silver coin. After handing the silver coin to Zhao Ji, the Punica craftsman said that he would take the four acid sacs out of the slime monster's corpse. To take it out, we have to wait until tomorrow, let the two of them pick it up tomorrow, and they have to pre-process the slime monster's body this afternoon.

--------------------------------------

After saying goodbye to the Punica craftsman, Zhao Ji and Todd returned to the tavern.

As expected by the two of them, the tavern was very lively, and the drinkers who followed them outside the city were happily talking about what they had seen and heard. There are mountains of slime corpses, smelly swamps, disgusting sewage outlets that make you want to vomit at a glance, mysterious secret waterway projects under the city, and so on.

It was just the story of Zhao Ji's fierce battle last night, just as Zhao Ji and Todd returned to the tavern. A group of people raised their glasses to Zhao Ji, praising his bravery and courage, and asked Zhao Ji to hurry up and tell the story of the fierce slime monster battle last night.

The warm atmosphere made Zhao Ji's face red and hot, and his throat dry. Fortunately, Todd kept shouting that he would hand over the bet money to the winner of the game, which attracted everyone's attention.

Zhao Ji took the opportunity to hand the ax to the bar owner first. The bar owner who received the ax glared at Zhao Ji, then patted Zhao Ji on the shoulder encouragingly, praised Zhao Ji as a good boy, and returned to the back kitchen. The guests lit a fire and went to cook.

Before Zhao Ji asked the proprietress at the tavern counter for a glass of beer to quench his thirst, Todd grabbed his arm and showed him to everyone in the tavern, first explaining the bets of the previous few days to everyone , and then asked the five drinkers to prove that they were not lying, the district saw and confirmed Zhao Ji's big harvest last night, and then Todd explained that he had received confirmation from the other side of the bet. Finally, Todd took out two silver coins from under the bar counter of the bar and handed them to Zhao Ji.

Although Zhao Ji was very embarrassed by being surrounded by enthusiastic drinkers, he was still excited to get the two silver coins in his hands. He showed the two silver coins to everyone, and immediately put them into the money pocket inside the clothes.

Although there were only three coins, Zhao Ji felt relieved for a while because of the flat money bag.

Zhao Ji, who was safe in his pocket, cheered up, and signaled to the drinkers that they wanted to hear about the battle situation last night, so that he could get him a glass of the best beer in the tavern first.

The crowd laughed and signaled to Zhao Ji to invite them to buy this glass of wine. As a result, more than a dozen glasses of golden wheat beer were piled on the table in front of Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji drank half a glass of beer excitedly, sat on the small keg as a seat, and started talking about his combat preparations to everyone since yesterday afternoon.

Of course, he didn't intend to reveal his unique skill - the branch cloak, he decided to reveal everything else.

After all, this is an opportunity he has been waiting for for a long time.
