Chapter 24: Inflatable Tents
I woke up slowly at about 10 a.m. the next morning, because I felt very heavy after drinking some alcohol last night.
After a little washing and tidying up, I came to the trading market behind the mercenary union.
The market is also deserted, a month ago the square was full of temporary stalls, but now there are only half of the original number.
The fur market is also not good, the purchase price is not very ideal, and it seems that there is not much money to be made from hunting and stripping in large quantities.
Are you really going to do a mercenary mission?
At this moment, the mercenary union's exclusive acquisition shop, which is still very popular, caught my attention.
This kind of buying shop is generally directly affiliated with the mercenary union, and is responsible for purchasing all kinds of materials for the mercenary union.
The mercenary union will classify and package the purchased materials and transport them to other cities, and distribute them to other cities that lack such materials to earn the difference.
I took a look at it, and in addition to fur and grain, there were also clothing and utensils processed by various stores.
Maybe try this?
Holding his chin in his left hand, he thought about it, asked the waiter about the purchase method, and then went home to pack his things and decided to do a big job.
A wheelbarrow was made out of wooden nails, and a barrel was placed on the cart.
When you are ready, you will push your car out of Crowe with your bow and arrows on your back, and head south along the gravel road.
Well, I remember it was in this forest about the same time...... That's it!
Follow the route in memory and come to a small forest in front of it.
Wipe the ash from the trunk with a rag, then carve a spiral mark on the tree, and insert a piece of channel steel under the ring notch.
After an afternoon of hard work, I returned to Crow with a bucket full of sap, and it was already dark.
I don't care about the hard work of running back and forth, and the sap has not dried yet, so I need to finish the processing quickly, otherwise I will not be able to use it after a while.
Dragged out the log that had been prepared for a long time.
After the wood is processed, a layer of paint is specially brushed on it, and the surface is very smooth.
In this way, there are four pieces of wood that have been processed, fixed on a shelf and hung in the air, and then the sap is brushed layer by layer with a brush.
After a while, the sap gradually solidifies, turning into a brownish-yellow elastic solid that adheres to the wood.
After clicking with your finger to make sure that it is dry, you will tear off the solidified sap gel, check the air tightness, and after confirming that there is no air leakage, stick the one-way air valve to the reserved opening with the sap, and then seal it.
After a few repetitions, four inflatable resin sleeves are made.
Speaking of this sap, I have to thank the wild boar in the forest, if it wasn't for it crashing into the trees, I might not have found such a good sap.
The one-way air valve is pumped with a pump that has already been prepared, and the four air bags are filled with air, forming four pillars.
Using the painted wooden planks as a template, the sap was brushed on it, and after the belt was solidified, it was torn off and glued to the columns, and after a while, an inflatable tent appeared in front of me.
Looking at his masterpiece in front of him, he nodded with satisfaction.
I built the raw edges, let the air out, folded it, and I folded a single tent into a book-sized square, weighing less than 3 kilograms.
Ha Luha, I'm a genius.
Put your tent away, clean your tools, and go to bed!
I'll see tomorrow how I get the money from the mercenary union, huh.
With a happy mood, I fell asleep.
After a night of silence, the next morning, after the mercenary market opened, I took the tent that I had made yesterday to the mercenary union's purchase shop.
Because I was in a good mood, my voice became very sweet: "Big sister, I want to sell something." ”
The familiar waiter in front of me smiled and said to me, "Little sister again, what are you selling this time?" ”
It's actually the waiter who bought my gold nuggets last time, good luck.
"This is it." I put the folded tent on the counter.
"What is this? If you need our appraisal, you will need a fee. The waiter looked at me puzzled.
"I'll show you here, don't you use this land for the time being?"
After the mercenary union attendant affirmed it, I shook the tent open, pulled out the pump and pumped it to the four corners.
As the four pillars gradually filled with air and erected, the waiter's mouth became bigger and bigger: "This is a tent?!" ”
I smiled and said to the waiter, "That's right, how do you buy it?" ”
"You wait for this, I'll find someone."
After reassuring me, the waiter walked briskly to the back of the house.
The merchants next to him looked at the inflatable tent and all gathered around, all of them seeming to be interested in the tent.
"What kind of material is this tent made of?"
"I don't know what to do, but it takes less than two minutes to unfold and support the whole process."
"So fast? It's convenient to camp with this. ”
"Where is this sold?"
"I don't know what to do, do you want to ask?"
"Miss, where did you get this tent? Just tell me this is yours. A pot-bellied merchant said to me with a gold coin.
A gold coin, you send it to Hanako!
I snatched the gold coins and said, "I did." ”
Just now, it seems that I suddenly feel that I have lost something, and forget it.
"Made of what? How? The merchant in front of me looked at me in surprise, unconcerned about the gold coins I had just snatched.
I looked up at each other with idiot eyes.
Just count on this to make money, tell you what I eat?
"Let one, let one, don't tease here." A lazy seductive female voice appeared at the back of the crowd, and the merchants next to it scattered like mice seeing cats, and seemed to hear the voices of "vampires" and "demons".
The crowd dispersed in a blink of an eye, and a tall, red-haired, red-eyed, and leaky woman appeared before me.
"Annie?"
Anne looked at me with astonishment; "It's Qin Xin's little sister, is it you who told me that the person who sold the special tent was you?"
"Subordinates? You own this shop? I looked at Anne puzzled.
"Let me introduce you again, my name is Annie, and I'm the branch president of the Crow City Mercenary Guild."
"The lazy branch leader hiding in the rookie mercenary registry?" Although I was surprised by the identity of the branch president with Anne, I was not surprised by the lazy behavior at all, probably because Anne felt like she was lazy to the core.
"Oh, don't talk about people like that, you're so shy." Anne put her hands on her cheeks and lowered her head shyly.
“……”
"How can you let your guest stand here, come with me to the back, take this tent with you."
Seeing that I was speechless, Anne finally changed to a relatively normal expression and said to me.
PS The most terrible thing in the world is not to work 26 hours in a row, but after 26 hours, someone said: Yes, hurry up and sleep for a few hours, and continue tomorrow.
