Chapter 60: Cents
Chapter 60 Cents
After leaving the gnolls' camp, Vane said to Walker, "Walker, when we go back, keep the space bag under wraps, and don't tell Barka and Kaliya about the two of them. ”
"Why?" Walker asked, puzzled, "You know, the harvest of adventure is to be divided equally." ”
"Of course I understand that, it's just that this space bag is a big problem. We can't let people know it's in our hands. Vane shook his head and said, "If someone learns something from this space bag, the four of us won't be able to get involved in the whirlpool of feud between the human nobles." After all, Barka and Kalia are relatively simple-minded, what if someone tricks them into saying a few words, and they tell everything about our adventure? And we didn't keep it a secret, and when it was over, we'd tell the two of them. ”
"Oh my gosh. Caught up in the whirlpool of feud among the human nobility is a big problem. You're right, let's keep this under wrap for now. As soon as Walker heard Vane's explanation, he immediately understood that this was a very good thing. After all, the human nobles who can use things like space bags are not ordinary nobles. How could it be that no one came to investigate the situation. Walker immediately agreed to Vane's proposal.
"As for the space bag, we don't plan to sell it anyway, you can use it first. The three of us won't have the chance to venture out again for at least a hundred years. Vane saw that Walker had agreed, and spoke to Walker again.
"That's fine, then I'll use it first. But it's a luxury. Using the Space Bag for my adventures, I'm probably the most extravagant dwarven adventurer out there. At this time, Walker touched the space bag in his arms with his hand and said in an exclamatory tone.
Soon, Vane and Walker came to the bottom of the mountain wall, and after they climbed the mountain wall, the eager Barka immediately came up and asked, "How is it?" What kind of loot was obtained? ”
"Some gnolls' teeth." Vane pulled out the gnolls teeth he had picked up from his body and said to Barka. Walker took advantage of Barka and Kalia's attention to Vane, entered the tent and poured out the gold coins in the space bag, and then stuffed the space bag back into his arms.
"What? Just some teeth? Barka was stunned when he heard Vane's words, this was too far from what he had imagined in his heart. Kalia next to her also had a disappointed expression on her face when she heard this.
Seeing the expressions on the faces of the two of them, Vane understood what was going on in their hearts. So he explained to the two of them, "Do you think these teeth are worthless things? ”
After seeing the two nodding together, Vane said, "There are generally two kinds of loot, one is a very valuable item, which is used to sell for money. The other is used for collection, and later taken out for reminiscence. Do you understand? ”
After seeing the two of them signaling understanding, Vane continued, "But what valuable things can you get from the gnolls?" The Gnoll has nothing of value at all other than this one for collection. ”
Listening to Vane's words, the two suddenly realized. Come to think of it, the gnolls live in a small tribe, their lives are very primitive, what good things can there be. So the disappointed Barka began to mumble, "What, I thought there would be something good, but I didn't expect it to be just some rags." ”
"It's not that there is nothing, Walker and I found some gold coins from the gnolls, and we'll split them in a moment." Vane saw that Walker had reached out to give Vane a hint, so he went on to speak to Barka and Kalia.
"Gold?" Barka's eyes lit up, unlike Vane and Kalia, who had five gold coins a month for living expenses, which was the salary given to them by the Kingdom of Quel'Salas. The only money in Barka's hand was what his parents had given him, and he only had a silver coin of pocket money every month. Although it is a lot of money for human civilians, in Quel'Thalas, the purchasing power of a silver coin is pitiful, and it can only buy some sugar. So Barka was happy to get his share of the coins.
"That's right, Barka Boy. Hurry up, we're going to start splitting the money. Walker had returned to the tent and poured out all the gold. The space bag was carried in his arms again.
Vane entered the tent with Barka and Kalia, and saw Walker sitting in a corner of the tent with a pile of gold coins in front of him, which numbered in thousands.
"Okay, it's all done, let's start splitting the money." Since it was the gold obtained from his first adventure, Walker was extremely excited. Normally, the money is not divided until the end of the adventure, but this time, because it was the first harvest, for the sake of a good fortune, both Wayne and Walker decided to divide the money.
After the three of Vane gathered around the pile of gold coins, Walker picked up a gold coin and put it in front of Vane beside him. The mouth said: "Venn one." ”
Then he put another gold coin in front of him and said, "I'm one." ”
Just one by one in front of everyone, this is also a matter of no choice, Walker can only make the addition and subtraction of the value within ten, and there is no way to do more. This is very common in Azeroth, which is now at a medieval level. There is no need for the addition and subtraction of larger values in life. Only the High Elves of Quel'Salas have a stronger ability to add and subtract because they have to learn the 0-ring trick. In Azeroth, if the number is greater than ten, it is common to hear the saying "two tens plus one four".
It took a long time to divide the money, and by the time the money was finished, it was already noon. Azeroth is usually not in the habit of eating lunch here. Barka and Kalia were also taken by Vane's habit to eat something at noon because of the fish soup they were drinking. Now, Walker has a habit of doing the same.
While eating the food he had brought with him, Vane asked Walker and Barka and Kaliya for advice, "Are we going to rest here for another day today, or are we going to pack up our things and go on our way after lunch?" ”
"Let's take a day off. Anyway, there's no need to rush. Walker leaned to the side and relaxed.
"I can do whatever I want, you decide. Wayne. Barka replied with a smile as he looked at the small pile of gold coins in front of him.
As for Kalia, she looked at Vane: "I listen to Brother Vane. ”
"Alright then, let's rest for another day. Depart early tomorrow morning. In the end, Wayne took Walker's idea and took a day off here before hitting the road.
