The doors are open, and it's another enjoyable day.

As we enter autumn, Pelican Town receives good weather for the most part. Autumn is crisp, and the smell of food wafting through the air is really exciting.

But...... But that didn't matter to Arrow.

Even, he has begun to regret it a little.

Bookkeeping.

Do these piles up a whole year, barely literate level of Pelican townspeople for a year's income accumulated from the accumulated account book!

Who knows what exactly Iroh saw when he opened the books?

He saw the stars! Stars in the sky!

It could almost be said that except for the bill at Little Spirit's Unicorn Bar, which was a little cleaner, the rest of the books were all messy and cumbersome, like stars smashing down on Arrow's head!

What's more, the crooked writing techniques in some ledgers, not to mention the numbers are full of scribbles and alterations, just say that some of those words are too bells and whistles to be recognized.

"Hmm...... Dragon ribs? ”

Arrow squinted his eyes and stared at the glazier's ledger, he really couldn't understand why an uncle who specialized in making glass crafts would need to buy such a domineering and even panicked material as dragon ribs. Moreover, it only cost three copper coins?

After a few minutes of hesitation, Arrow decided to use divergent thinking, wondering if this was written as a "pig rib"?

Such questions were written all over the account book, and Arrow was a little dizzy just looking at it this morning, and began to understand why the tax collector had such a relieved smile after hearing that this year's Pelican Town account book had been sorted out by the old Tengshu Academy, and insisted on what could be called happiness.

"These two silver coins really shouldn't be earned...... At that time, it should have been rejected outright......"

Frowning and holding his pen, Arrow began to regret his mistake.

How long has it been since I left school that I have written so much with a pen? This kind of headache was only felt when I was writing my graduation thesis.

"You should charge two gold coins, two silver coins is a big loss."

Arrow groaned, having already made up his mind to knock the mayor of Round Cheese next year.

At this moment, the doors of the guild were pushed open.

The little liquor boss still looked so thin and refined, and he walked into the guild and looked left and right, and soon noticed that Arrow was sitting in the rest area, facing a ledger as high as a hill with a sad face.

"Good morning, President Arrow."

Little Spirits looked around—

"What about your guild members?"

Arrow raised his pen a little impatiently and pointed to the storage room behind him, and said without raising his head: "What about class, there is no task today, they went to listen to Napa's lecture together." In the afternoon, I originally arranged for them to do physical and magic training, if there is a task, please find a form over there and fill it out, and then put the money on the counter and post the task list on the bulletin board, which is annoying now. ”

Little Liquor frowned, and the leek-looking bar owner took two steps towards Arrow, saying, "I heard from the tax collector. Well, it looks like you're choking enough. ”

Arrow picked up the pen and poked the hair next to his ear, and continued to look at the work in his hands: "What's the matter?" If it's okay, can you please go and help me beat up our dear mayor? I'll give you a silver coin as payment. ”

Little Liquor shook his head and said lightly, "I'm here to introduce you to work." I have two residents here, they stayed with me last night, and I heard that we have an adventurer's guild in Pelican Town, so I brought them in early in the morning. ”

It was also at this time that Arrow raised his head and noticed the back of Little Spirit.

There stood two men, both of them about eighteen or nineteen years old, one wearing a simple set of iron armor and a long sword at his waist. The other wears leather armor and a helmet, with a spear strapped to his back. The equipment of the two of them is quite complete, but the pocket used to hold the props hanging from their waists looks empty.

"Welcome, is there anything we can do to help?"

There are adventurers coming, and of course Eero welcomes them. He shook his spirits, put down the pen in his hand, immediately put a smile on his face, got up and walked in front of the two warriors.

The sword warrior glanced at the guild hall and then at the table full of bills for Arrow, and then said, "We want to be a temporary member of your Mermaid's Song, buy some supplies, and recuperate." Do you have anything to offer here? ”

After hearing the term temporary member, Arrow's heart couldn't help but chuckle.

Under normal circumstances, Pelican Town can be regarded as a very safe city, and no adventurer will come here without any trouble. And now that adventurers are coming...... Could it be that the news of the gold mine has already been spread?

Thinking of this, Arrow immediately smiled all over his face! After all, it is my original purpose to make money with the help of gold mines, and as long as the gold mines are developed, I should be able to make a lot of money just by providing food, accommodation and information!

"Yes, yes, yes! Of course! Our Mermaid Song offers great food, a good night's sleep, and all the necessary props for two to explore the mines! We especially recommend our maps and healing aerosols, which are—"

"Stop, stop! Wait, who told you we're going to the mines? Do you have any caves here? ”

The spear warrior interrupted Arrow very rudely, which made Arrow a little confused.

"Ah...... You guys...... Be? ”

The spear warrior was a little impatient, and stepped forward and said, "Let me ask you, do you have any information about the ancient castle in the south of your town?" If there is any relevant information, please do not hesitate to provide it. ”

Ancient castles?

Arrow was slightly stunned, and his mind suddenly couldn't turn around. During this time, he was most concerned about the Mine Cave, and then the Shining Forest, is there an ancient castle south of Pelican Town? He immediately wanted to ask Little Spirit, but then he found out that Little Liquor had left at some point.

However, this hesitation only lasted for a few seconds, and Arrow's mind immediately turned to the things he knew about the ancient castle when he chatted with the townspeople on a daily basis.

But I didn't care much at the time. Thinking about it a little now, the simple information about this granite fort was also reawakened by him from the depths of his memory.

"You mean Granite Fort? That old castle has been abandoned for centuries, are you sure you want to go there? ”

The spear warrior wanted to speak impatiently, but the sword warrior came up to stop his companion and said in a slightly mild tone: "It's that ancient castle, as the guild leader of Pelican Town, do you know anything about that ancient castle?" ”

Arrow smiled and said, "What about this Granite Fort...... Although we don't know much information on our side, we do know a little. It's a very dangerous place, and there are monsters in Pingsuli, so you have to be well prepared if you want to go there, so ...... This one...... Something...... Haha......"

Seeing Arrow's hesitant pause, the keen sword warrior thought about it and immediately found the source of the problem.

"What do you have for sale here?"

Arrow smiled slightly, "Since the two of us are temporary members of the Mermaid Song, then of course I can't treat them badly. There are a lot of monsters in that ancient castle! And in order to prevent these monsters from causing damage to the two of you, I highly recommend the special healing aerosol made by this guild! ”

As he spoke, Arrow walked to the counter, took out six bottles of therapeutic aerosols from the back shelf and placed them on the counter, and said with a smile: "When you use it, please just lift the bottle and smash it on the ground." Our guild's healing aerosol will heal wounds in the fastest possible time! Whether it is a broken hand or a dying life, as long as there is even one breath left, you can immediately go to the battlefield again! Now you only need 5 silver coins per bottle, buy 2 bottles and get 1 bottle free. I think the two fighters have such excellent physiques, in order to be careful, they must buy a few more bottles of insurance! ”

The two warriors looked at each other, and finally at the guild leader in front of them, who was obviously a head shorter than him, and was very young, even a little oily.

After that, the two warriors stepped aside and put their arms on each other's shoulders to discuss.

"What do you think?"

"I think it's stupid, this guild leader looks silly, small and short, with no muscles on his arms, and he doesn't look like a magician. This price is really expensive, and the reward for accepting this task is only a total of 5 gold coins for the two of us, and he is good, a few bottles of healing potions will cost two gold coins, and this business is too easy to do. ”

"Hmm...... Reasonable. So what do we do now? ”

"But anyway, this is also a local guild, so for the sake of safety, I think we'd better buy three bottles first and see what clues he can provide."

"That's it."

After deliberating, the two warriors turned their heads and nodded slightly at Arrow. The sword warrior then spoke: "Okay, in that case, then let's buy three bottles, and don't give us bad quality potions." ”

A smile bloomed on Arrow's face: "Hahaha, you can rest assured of this!" ”

After collecting the money and handing over the goods, Arrow put the remaining three bottles of therapeutic aerosols back on the shelf, and then patted the counter gently: "Ah...... What did you just ask? Looks like the Granstone Fort south of Pelican Town, right? ”

The two warriors sat down on the bar counter, and the sword warrior in one of them pulled out a notebook and pen, as if intending to record all the information that Arrow had said.

This is a good habit, and it also proves that these two are two mature adventurers. For such a well-prepared adventurer, Arrow will always have a good feeling.
