Chapter 85 A Cold Meal
Hearing this, Gu Liduo's eyes suddenly sharpened, he looked very surprised, and slapped the table with both hands: "What? Unpaid? Isn't that right? Even resident members should be able to have income, how can there be no income at all? β
Coco was a little confused, and asked the same way, "What do you mean?" I do not quite understand. β
Gu Liduo shook his head and said with a serious face, "Even the resident members should be paid." Generally speaking, temporary guild members can get more than 50% of their remuneration if they complete the task. After all, all the equipment and props of the temporary members during the adventure are prepared by themselves, and the guild does not include them. But on the other hand, even if you are a permanent member, you should be able to withdraw at least 20% of the amount as a mission reward after completing a mission, right? If there is no task pay, then the salary should be settled on a monthly basis! β
"Coco, Cream, Brad, Parfay, think about it. It's impossible to do the job of an adventurer for a lifetime! Now we are young, we can play, we can rush forward, so we can still be active on the front line. But in the future, when we are old and weak, we may no longer be able to defeat those monsters, and there will be no way to complete ordinary tasks as quickly as we do now. At this time, will the guild always support us? β
"Once we are no longer combative, it means retirement. But think about it, if we don't have a single Iron Coin income from all the previous adventure mission commissions, how are we going to live when we get old? Even if our president is willing to keep us up, he will definitely hire new adventurers after our combat power declines, so that the number of adventurers in our guild will increase, but the combat power will not increase, so won't the mermaid song collapse?! β
Gu Liduo was very excited, and these words really had a slight impact on the ears of Coco and Brad.
work, but no money to take.
Except for three meals a day and a place to live, there is no income at all.
If this kind of life really goes on like this......
"What exactly do you want to say?"
Cream, who had been listening to the side but not speaking, finally opened his mouth.
He put down the draft beer glass in his hand and looked at the grains with a slightly confused drunken eye.
In this regard, Gu Duoduo just frowned and did not speak.
He turned his head and looked at this lively bar, and for a moment he couldn't help but feel a feeling, took off the lute behind his back, and plucked it lightly in his hand.
"I'm not going to let the Mermaid's Song break. Whether it's for us, for the future of the guild, or even for the president, we must come together and make a small change. β
With that, his fingers gently plucked the strings, and a beautiful melody immediately came out of the lute and floated throughout the bar.
Melodious music, accompanied by the beautiful singing voice of the bard.
The noise in the bar seemed to disappear for a moment, and all gave way to the beautiful music.
The people who were drinking with their fists, the people who were chatting loudly, and even the people who were dancing to the beat over there, all turned back and gathered on the mermaid's song, and on the bard.
"The one I love~~~ may you be carefree for life~~~~"
Pelican Town, which has been unentertained for a long time, may have had the most beautiful night tonight.
Everyone listened quietly, with happy smiles on their faces.
Brad gulped down the skewers while gulping down beer.
Parfait had drunk enough nectar tea and began to dance in the air to the sound of the lute.
Coco nodded happily and took out the steel staff and gently tapped it on the table, beating to the beat.
It didn't seem to work with only the amount of cream wine, so I fell asleep on the table.
Either way, tonight will be the most wonderful and enjoyable night......

Merfolk Song, within the guild.
Arrow sat at the table with his cheeks propped up, looking in the direction of the gate with some warp eyes.
Originally, I thought that those guys would have to work from morning to night in the next few days, so the president specially made a table of good dishes.
But by now, the meals have long since cooled down. The cheese cream soup, which tastes best when it's hot, is now a slimy, sticky liquid that makes people lose their appetite.
"Do you want to go find them? Could something be wrong? β
Napa flew over Arrow's head and sat down.
With Napa sitting down, Aero's spirit was a little clearer. He quickly rubbed his temples to keep himself awake as much as possible, and said, "It's okay, Mayor Round Cheese cares most about his commission, if something really happens to them, someone would have come to inform me a long time ago." They're probably delayed because of something......"
Continue to wait, and see, the time has gradually reached midnight. Arrow's eyelids really couldn't stand this constant waiting, and he finally stood up.
"Hmm...... I went out to find them...... Don't do anything......"
Seeing that Arrow was now tired and dying, Napa immediately flew in front of him and raised a small meat paw: "Look at the way you look now, you are either settling accounts or busy with the affairs of the guild all day long. You'd better go to sleep first, and I'll go find them. After all, I can fly, much faster than you. β
Now that Napa was willing to help, Airo could only smile wryly. After the cat flew out of the guild and disappeared into the night, Arrow looked back at the large pile of food on the table......
"Alas...... It's not good when it's cold...... I'll go to sleep when I warm it up again, and hopefully they won't be hungry when they come back......"
With the dishes in hand, Arrow walked into the kitchen top-heavy. After a few more busy work, he looked at the reheated meal with some satisfaction, and then yawned, went upstairs, and got into the bed.
It's just that......
The dishes on this table have not been touched after all.
- October 17, 1301, food expenses: -9 copper and 6 iron, sundries commission: 2 copper, decoration of the house: 1 gold, balance: 96 gold, 6 copper and 4 iron (the balance of stolen money: 40 gold, 7 silver and 7 copper) -
This night, Arrow slept very deeply.
Not only is it very heavy when I sleep, but even after waking up, I feel heavy.
When he opened his eyes, Arrow felt that his eyes were tired and his head ached. He reached out and touched his forehead......
It's a little hot......
It seems that you really shouldn't insist on staying up all night.
Although I was a little uncomfortable, the work was still there.
Arrow got up, combed his hair in front of the mirror, and put on his hat. After all, I have to go to a meeting with Mayor Round Cheese today to discuss the work after the winter, and to supervise the completion of the work of those guys, and by the way, ask the townspeople about the service attitude and completion of their own guild members.
Only by grasping first-hand information can the guild always walk on the formality.
Covering his head, Arrow went downstairs. As soon as I arrived at the guild hall, I saw Coco cleaning up the meal she had made last night. After seeing Arrow come down, the little girl hurriedly put down the work in her hand and ran over: "Good morning, brother president!" β¦β¦ Well? Brother President, why don't you seem to have any energy? β
Arrow waved his hand and smiled, "I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy." You ...... yesterday Where did it go? When did you come back? β
As he spoke, Napa snorted heavily. The kitten's tail was constantly wagging while banging heavily on the counter, as if to vent his frustration.
Coco also looked a little embarrassed and said, "That...... Brother President, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect it to be so late...... However, the vice president has already scolded us severely. We'll be sure to pay attention next time. β
Arrow didn't have much energy to care about these things right now, he just wanted to sit down as soon as possible, eat and drink, and keep his body in a healthy state as much as possible.
Breakfast was last night's dinner, excluding the things that were really unpalatable, and after putting them on the table, Arrow saw that these things really hadn't touched a bite.
Soon, Cream, Brad, Parfay, and Grains came out of the kitchen and pantry, and when they saw Arrow, they immediately came up to greet them and sat down at the table.
Arrow pinched his eyebrows, closed his eyes, and said softly, "How did yesterday's commissioned work go?" β
Brad laughed, "We're doing it fast!" If we continue like this, we will soon be able to complete the task. Well...... President, there's something I want to ask you. Although I haven't asked about it very closely, and I haven't been aware of it. But I want to know if Parfay and I have any of the gainsβ"
"Mermaid Song! Mermaid Song! Hey! Breakfast! β
Just as Brad was about to finish speaking, the boss of Bradden pushed open the door of the guild and strode in.
The tailor shop owner was not polite, walked directly to the bar chair in front of the counter and sat down, and said with a smile: "Are you free?" Ladies and gentlemen. I know you're currently finishing the renovation of the town, but I have some tasks here that I'd like you to help me with. β
Anyway, if you have a business, you should still take it.
Arrow struggled to bracing his arms and wanted to walk to the counter.
But at this time, Gu Liduo, who was sitting on the side, got up first, walked into the counter very briskly, and said with a smile: "Boss Budian! How can we help you? β
Budding didn't seem to react to the exchange of roles, and he turned his head to look at Arrow on this side.
