In Pelican Town, where autumn is crisp, the air naturally spreads with the aroma of rice.

The people of Mermaid Song came to the central square of the town and walked through a dozen stalls of all kinds.

Coco is still a child after all, and Brad is excited but does not dare to move. Seeing that the two members were also tired during this time, Arrow took them around, and waited until they were almost done shopping before leading the two to their destination.

"Yo, Boss Budian, how's business?"

Carrying the sack, Arrow eventually stopped in front of the tailor's shopkeeper's shop.

Even in this autumn season, which is full of the aroma of food, the thin figure of the boss of the pudding still shows no signs of fortune. He had just sent away a customer to sell two clothes, and when he turned around, he saw Arrow, and naturally said with a smile: "Business is not bad." I see your guild is closed? Nothing happened, right? ”

Arrowhaha laughed: "Take a break for two days, let's gather, let's see if there is anything good." ”

Budding spread out and pointed to the various clothes on his stall, and said with a smile, "Do you have any favorite clothes?" How about buying two more pieces and wearing them at this year's Holy Eve Festival? These are my proudest creations! ”

A slight glance, huh...... It can only be said that the clothing design of this border town is completely incomparable with that of the capital. Of course, Arrow didn't come to buy clothes.

He shoved the sack in front of Boss Budding's stall, and pointed to the cracked slime leather armor on Brad's body, "Of course I'm here to take care of the boss's business." But it's another way to take care of. The clothes I asked you to make last time were torn, can you help me fix them? ”

When Brad heard this, he quickly took off the slime leather armor and handed it over respectfully.

The tailor shop owner took the leather armor and looked at it for a while, especially when he saw the crack that seemed to have been cut by a sharp blade, he couldn't help frowning, and asked with a little worry, "Is the thing you deal with so dangerous?" This kind of thing...... Is it just around the corner of our town? ”

Arrow hurriedly waved his hand and showed the most gentle smile: "No, no, no, you think too much." It's not that powerful, it's just that we're not careful. Can it be repaired? ”

"It's no problem to repair. 5 Iron Coins, plus a day's time. What do you think? ”

"Deal! I also have a commission here. ”

Arrow opened the sack and took out the muscle textures that were completely dry and couldn't even tell what they were—

"Can you ask the boss to help sew a cloak of these threads?"

Boss Budian put down his leather armor, picked up the muscle texture and examined it carefully: "What kind of material is this?" It looks pretty sturdy. ”

"Can we sew a cloak of small materials from the mines? It's the magic cloak that our magicians wear. ”

With that, Arrow pulled Coco over and patted her shoulders with both hands. The little necromancer looked a little nervous when he was suddenly dragged to the front and back of the person, and couldn't help but pull his tattered cloak, and his head couldn't help but lower.

Saying this, Budian seemed a little overwhelmed. He frowned, and said tentatively in a slightly half-joking tone, "President Arrow, you're testing me." Am I, an ordinary country blacksmith, now going on to become a magical equipment maker? ”

Because you're cheap~~~! And close. Otherwise, send these equipment to some big cities to build magic equipment, and God knows what terrible price you will be charged.

Arrow immediately put on a smile on his face: "Don't worry, I don't have such high requirements, just ask you to sew a cloak that suits our child, you can choose the style yourself, as long as it's not too ugly, it's easy to wear." ”

Budian looked at the shabby robe on Coco's body, and after thinking about it, he finally nodded: "Okay, I'll take this job." It's just that I haven't done the work of building a magic cloak, and I want to concentrate on it, so give me seven days...... 3 copper coins, how's that. ”

It's a bit of a flesh pain...... But Arrow himself knows that this price is definitely super cheap. At that moment, he didn't continue to bargain, and directly took out 3 copper coins and 5 iron coins and placed them in the palm of Budian's palm.

When he was moving all the muscle textures out of the sack and handing them over, the long stick boss of the stall next door looked energetic, poked his head and shouted, "Yo! President Arrow, take care of the pudding business? Can you take care of my family's business? ”

Arrow immediately greeted him with a smile: "Of course, of course! Everyone can forget, how can Mr. Longstick, the first brother of our famous tool shop in Pelican Town, forget? I'm thinking I'll come back to you later! ”

Walking over, Arrow led Coco and Brad to the club's stall. He didn't get close, he took out the two index finger claws directly from the sack and handed them over respectfully.

"Boss, look at these two things, can you make two weapons?"

Just like the pudding, the tool shop owner had seen this material for the first time. He touched his bald skull, picked up his paw and weighed it, then looked at Arrow with a smile: "You adventurers' guild can really get all kinds of strange materials." ”

Airo smiled: "Doesn't it seem that your craftsmanship is exquisite, and you can handle any material with ease~~"

The long stick observed these two claws repeatedly, and finally nodded and said: "It looks like it can be made into two short swords, and at worst, it can be two daggers, which are no less hard than some iron weapons?" But this thing ......."

He looked at Brad's huge body and said, "You big guy with two weapons so small, it really doesn't look like a match." Or will you use it yourself? ”

Arrow smiled, "Okay! Then build two short swords! In addition, there are: ”

He handed the entire sack to the long stick and opened it to reveal a dense collection of fragmented teeth.

Looking at the incomprehensible expression on the long stick's face, Arrow said directly: "The wooden shield before is no longer usable, so I want a harder iron shield here." Moreover, can these teeth be inlaid in the iron shield of the future? ”

"Fangs shield?!"

The boss of the long stick gasped, he looked left and right, and finally suddenly leaned his head and whispered in Arrow's ear: "Hey, tell me honestly, are you going to war?" I've heard that the war on the front line is getting more and more tense, so you shouldn't be some adventurers, but an army, right? Won't it really affect our town? We're not going to be dragged to serve in the army, are we?! ”

Arrow shook his head: "Don't worry, boss, you are responsible for manufacturing, and I am responsible for paying." You don't have to worry about security. What do you think? How much? ”

"This ...... Well, two short swords, plus an iron shield, and I'll take you...... A silver coin bar. ”

"It's a bit expensive, isn't it? You see that the boss of the pudding next door helped me hand-sew a cloak for only a copper coin, and you directly multiplied it tenfold! It's powerful enough. ”

The long stick looked in the direction of the pudding, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "So...... 5 copper coins, it can't be any lower. Weapons are not the same as cloaks, I have to help you grind and quench, the process is much more complicated. ”

"Deal!"

Arrow didn't hesitate to pay, but his face was full of regret for being slaughtered.

After finishing his business, Arrow tossed the empty sack to Brad and stretched out.

After walking around the bazaar, everyone wandered around, but Arrow decided to have a heavy hemorrhage. He led the two of them to a food stall and sat down, and he must have invited him for lunch.

"Come, order whatever you want, you're welcome, as long as there is something on the signboard. You've worked hard this time, too. ”

After all, I don't have to pay these two people's salaries, and I should be generous in terms of food.

When Arrow looked at the menu, Brad couldn't help it at first, and said, "President, it's really ...... I'm sorry. I'm not strong enough, and I want you to help me spend money on equipment. During this time, I also learned a lot about guilds, and equipping this kind of thing should be done by the adventurers themselves......"

With Brad at the beginning, Coco finally mustered up the courage: "I'm sorry...... Brother President, it's all because I'm too weak......"

Arrow ordered himself a plate of white fish noodles with black olive sauce, handed the menu to the two, and said with a smile: "I said it a long time ago, the guild is still quite like a family in general." I don't have combat power, and I'm afraid I won't be able to follow you on any more adventures when the guild grows stronger in the future. So as a person like me who has no strength or magic, this is the only one who can help you adventurers. ”

"If you really want to repay me, then as I said, try to make yourself stronger and accomplish more tasks. Now that the news of the mine will produce gold has been spread, there will be more such tasks in the future, so you two must be prepared for anything. And I'm going to help you get ready. ”

Speaking of gold mines, Iero still couldn't figure out why the heart of a creature was made of gold. Especially the heart of a ghould?

According to the gold mine information he had obtained before, there was no mention of any monsters at all, and the initial leak of the news showed that the person who escaped from the gold mine did not seem to have the ability to single-handedly take on a corpse eater and know the information of the heart.

Then, the magician named Merlin apparently wanted to find out if the mines really had gold as they were rumored. Now he has the answer.

So, whose person is this Merlin? Someone official from the Empire? But if it was an official member of the Blue Bay Empire, why would he kill the first two adventurers who might also be official members?

Or rather...... The matter of gold mines has already caused disputes between the imperial family and the nobility, and those nobles are beginning to use their brains against these gold mines?

This is not impossible, although the Blue Bay Empire is now in a state of war externally, it is not monolithic internally. If the situation of the gold mine is true, then whoever occupies the gold mine is equivalent to who has a strong voice among the upper echelons of the empire.

After all, all power in this world itself is created by money.
