Chapter 386: The Warehouse Incident

Xiluo came to a warehouse area in the middle of the city.

There were many people in the warehouse area, and in addition to the large and small merchants and their servants, the most of them were the porters who were five strong and three thick.

The reason why Xiluo came here was because he accepted the commission to come here as a porter.

When this kind of entrustment fell in the forest village, he had done a lot of work, and he was already familiar with it, but because he came to a new place, he didn't know if he could make money like before.

There are many more warehouses in Linzhong Village, and there are a considerable number of porters, and in order to get better job opportunities together, two large porter groups have gradually formed, and almost the entire warehouse area has been contracted.

Because they have enough manpower, they don't usually ask for commissions from the Adventurers' Guild, and only when there are special circumstances.

And now is the time for that particular situation.

Due to the slime breeding frenzy, most merchants choose to ship the goods stored here in advance, otherwise they will not be able to ship them when the slime disaster breaks out.

The commission that Xiluo accepted was one of these two major porter groups.

Xiluo was not the only one who accepted this commission, but also a young man who looked like a child.

The two don't have anything to do with each other, so they don't plan to communicate after they meet, as if they don't know each other.

Despite this, Xiluo could still feel that the other party was looking at him frequently, and he had some bad intentions.

Xiluo didn't pay attention to this, after all, the profession of adventurer is a mixed bag, and all kinds of people will exist, even if you meet the other party, just inadvertently do something that makes the other party unhappy, it is very likely to cause unnecessary trouble.

The three of them have never encountered such a situation, but when chatting with Bond, Lucy and others, they will always hear some related things.

Looking at the other party's situation, it is obvious that they will come to find fault, and when the time comes, just deal with it casually.

As he pondered these things, he had already arrived at the porters' lounge, where his employer, the head of one of the two major porter groups, was waiting for them.

When the two entered, they found a dark-skinned man with a beard sitting on a chair smoking a cigarette.

Grass smoke is such a thing as Xiluo has heard of it, but it is rarely seen, although this kind of thing can relax people's minds, but it is harmful to the human body, so except for some people with considerable mental pressure, basically no one will touch this thing.

As for the price, it's not that high, but it's definitely not cheap either.

Look at that swarthy man, he can smoke a cigarette, he should have scratched a lot of oil and water here, otherwise, he generally can't support it.

These were just speculations made by Xiluo based on the superficial situation, and what he didn't know was that the other party had only recently started smoking, and he hadn't spent much money on it at all.

After he saw Xiluo's figures, he took a puff of cigarette, stood up slowly, and said to them in a casual tone: "You are the adventurers who accepted the commission, you don't need to introduce anything, the reward is 50 copper coins per day, and you will settle it together after you finish it, no problem, right?" ”

He finished saying this in one breath, and was about to wait for Xiluo and them to say that it was okay, when Xiluo suddenly spoke.

"If I do all the work in a short period of time, can I get the rest of the work?"

Hearing such a question, the swarthy man glanced at Xiluo a little strangely, and said two words "can't" without much fluctuation in his tone!

And the young adventurer standing on the side laughed out loud as if he couldn't hold back.

In the midst of that laughter, Xiluo could easily hear the mockery contained in it.

Xiluo was also a little surprised to get such an answer, but he didn't say anything, since others were unwilling, he wouldn't beg others, just how much money to take and how many things to do.

Seeing that Xiluo didn't say anything more, the swarthy man didn't think much about it, and directly took the two of them to the place where they needed to work, and after assigning the work to the two of them, they left conveniently.

It's a not small warehouse, it's full of all kinds of goods, and the two of them are working today to move at least half of the goods out of this warehouse.

Just as Xiluo was about to make a move, the young adventurer who was hanging on suddenly spoke in a strange way: "Hey, just now you seem to say that one person can finish all the work in a short time?" I'm weak, can you help me? ”

The words full of malice made Xiluo sigh slightly helplessly, and after glancing at him, he ignored him and began to work on his own.

Xiluo didn't use magic, after all, he only needed to empty a quarter of the warehouse.

It's just that this little thing can't be done with magic at all, and it can be done with both hands.

When the adventurer saw that Xiluo didn't say a word, just working on his own, he thought that Xiluo was afraid, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a contemptuous smile, and said, "Since you don't object, then I'll leave it to you!" ”

As he spoke, he stretched out a hand and grasped an iron stand beside him, and continued, "I hope you can help me finish it, otherwise, hehe!" ”

After saying that, he turned around and left the warehouse, not knowing what he was going to do.

And there was a very obvious handprint on the stand that his hand had just held, which was caused by his huge grip.

In this regard, Xiluo also felt a slight surprise, but he didn't expect the other party to have some strength.

But he didn't care too much, if it was just this bit of strength, even if a hundred were combined, they would not be his opponents.

Time flies away, and before you know it, the aurora in the sky has a tendency to dim, and the part that Xiluo is responsible for is basically about to be finished.

And so far, the adventurer who was supposed to work with Xiluo still hasn't returned, which also makes Xiluo frown deeply.

This situation made him a little worried.

He is not worried about the other party's situation, but about his own salary, after all, he and the other party are working together, and the two of them must empty half of the warehouse, and their share is completed, but what about the other party's share?

If the progress of the work is calculated according to the collective progress, then it is ironclad that the work is not completed?

Just when Xiluo was struggling with these things, a figure appeared at the door of the warehouse, Xiluo turned his head to look, and found that it was the swarthy man who had received Xiluo and the others before.
