Chapter 8: Don's Treat

"Fifty-five gold coins, thirty percent of which need to be used as the public expense of the mercenary group. As Alan spoke, he transferred sixteen gold coins and fifty silver coins into the mercenary group's public accounts.

According to the rules of the mercenary team, every adventure harvest must be paid three layers of public expense. These public funds, in addition to purchasing logistics materials, also pay additional pensions to the members of the mercenary team.

"This time, the nine of us will act together, and the distribution will be as follows according to the amount of effort. Whoever is not satisfied can say it right away. Tang Deli, as the logistics officer of the figurine corps, pointed to the trophies on the table and said.

Captain Allen and Todak slashed the Bighorn Aoi Snake and got eight gold coins.

The dwarf Todak cooperated with Eren to kill the Bighorn Aoi Snake and received six gold coins.

Priest Lucia, who played an important role in the slaying of the Greathorn Snake, was given four gold coins.

Bruce, the archer, and Celt, the crossbowman, take part in the slaying of the Greathorn Aoi Serpent, each receiving two gold coins.

The knight Dondeley, who protects Don and Lucia, participates in the attack on the Great Horned Aoi Serpent, and gets two gold coins.

The warrior Katrod and the swordsman Wood were seriously wounded in the slaying of the Great Horned Snake, and each was given four gold coins and a disability grant of fifty silver coins.

The Arcanist Donn, who participated in the slaying of the Great Horned Aoi Serpent and covered the mercenary squad out of danger, was rewarded with five gold coins and fifty silver coins.

The contribution of each team member, Tang Deli pointed out without omission. He had always been very fair in presiding over the distribution of the spoils, and this time was no exception.

"Do you have any need for the materials harvested this time, if not, this batch of materials will soon appear in the Civil Affairs Hall of the Emerald City. Tang Deli cleared his throat and said with a smile.

"There are three plants of Aoi Serpent Grass harvested this time, and each plant has a market price of one gold coin. You know Marianda needs this kind of thing, so these three Kui Serpent Grass are what I need. As he spoke, Alan dropped three gold coins, and by the way, he pocketed the three Kui Snake Grass.

Later, Lucia and Don each spent a gold coin and collected a lot of magic materials.

Eventually, Archer Bruce made the big news that he had gone bankrupt and spent twenty-five gold coins to leave behind two mature snake horns, and it looked like he wanted to refine a magic item.

Done has a good relationship with Bruce, who had mentored him in archery earlier. Before he became a professional, Donn almost always followed Bruce in action.

In the entire Dragon's Horn mercenary group, except for Marianda and Lucia, Bruce is the person who has the best relationship with Donn.

Because the two have a good relationship, Don joked and said, "My brother Bruce, our biggest gain this time is to go into your bag." You've gained so much this time that you can't say anything if you don't invite us to a drink. ”

In the mercenary squad, Bruce, the archer, is stingy and never invites guests to dinner. This time, when he heard that Don En made him spend money to bleed, he immediately shook his head and said, "Little Don, you can spare me." This time I bought snake horn and spent my ten years of savings cleanly. It's okay to have a treat, but you'll need to pay for it when the time comes. ”

Tang En's harvest this time was very large, even if he invited the dozen or so people present to eat and drink, it would not cost twenty silver coins. He saw that Bruce was indeed nervous, so he smiled happily: "Tonight, everyone will go to the Flame Tavern, and the night's consumption will be regarded as my treat." ”

Hearing Donn's words, Darui smiled evilly and told the good news to everyone who stayed behind in the Shadow Castle.

In this way, the number of people has increased almost fivefold, and the cost of Donn's treats has greatly doubled.

There are four squadrons of mercenaries guarding the lair, three in the Shadow Castle, and one in seven nearby villages.

In addition to these thirty mercenaries, there were more than twenty craftsmen and a dozen disabled soldiers in the castle. These dozen or so disabled soldiers were all once professionals, and after being disabled, they recuperated in the castle's lair.

Seeing that the number of people is increasing, even Don, who has always spent money lavishly, is a little overwhelmed. He immediately made a decision, repented with a thick face, and invited everyone to drink different wines according to different grades.

In the Dragon's Horn mercenary team, the team members are divided into five ranks, and each level is treated very differently.

The lowest-ranking members are only alternate mercenaries, and they only have an annuity of ten silver coins per year.

At the top are the official mercenaries, and this level is the main force in the mercenary group, and their annuity is only twenty silver coins per year.

The third tier is already the elite of the mercenary group, also known as the elite mercenaries.

Generally speaking, the squad leader in the mercenary group, the backbone leader of the craftsman team, and the new professionals of the first and second levels are all considered to be this class, and the annuity of this class has increased a lot, about fifty silver coins per year.

At the fourth level, it is already the top level of the mercenary team, this level is called the backbone mercenaries, and Tang En is also considered this class for the time being.

The number of people in this class is smaller, and there are only eleven people combined. Their annuity is not fixed, when the mercenary group is good, the annual annuity reaches five or six gold coins, and when the mercenary group has no income, it may be in vain throughout the year.

The fifth class is the regimental commander class. In addition to the leader of the Dragon's Horn Mercenary Regiment, there are three deputy leaders, namely the first deputy leader Todak, the second deputy leader Marianda, and the third deputy leader Lucia.

At their level, they no longer care about the pitiful annuity in the mercenary group, and they care more about the influence in the Emerald City. With this influence, they share the profits from the Emerald City's trade, and for that alone, they can get at least ten gold coins a year.

Inviting seventy or eighty people to drink a glass of wine for fifty copper coins could not withstand such a toss, even with Done's wealth.

Therefore, except for the elites above the third layer, most of the mercenaries can only drink a liter of inferior oatmeal beer for one copper coin.

Seventy or eighty people celebrated in this way, and if you count the dishes of the evening, you ate fifty-six silver coins of Tang En for one meal.

Fortunately, several regiment leaders did not disappoint Done, and each of them gave ten silver coins to make poor Don lose weight.
