Chapter 17: The Banquet (Ask for Collections and Recommendations)
"Inside this is the brother you entrusted to the escort team to help you deal with the harvest of the loot. Then old Johnny pointed to Barron's hand, and said with a smile on the other large purse:
"Because they were sold in bulk in the market, they were originally all kinds of silver and copper coins, which were large in quantity and in relatively average condition, so I exchanged them all for gold and silver coins minted by our Nader Kingdom itself, and in this way, you can easily carry them. ”
I have to say that Old Johnny is very thoughtful, at least Barron has no opinion.
"Also, don't stay in the tavern all the time, go out and walk around a lot, at least you can visit the arms trade market in the east of the city. As Barron was about to leave with his purse, he was stopped by old Johnny again.
"Now that you have money, at least get yourself a nice set of gear, of course that's my personal advice. Old Johnny suggested.
Barron felt that what Old Jonny said was very right, in the past few days of practice and training, he had basically integrated all his trick skills and experience, and the degree of improvement in training was not high, so he could replenish some equipment at the appropriate time.
Although the attack power of the cavalry knife is good, but after all, the biggest role of this weapon is still the cavalry can play, if it is not for Barron's melee weapon - proficient passive skills, he will not choose it, it's time to choose a weapon that suits him, and his own wooden shield can also be replaced, it's already old.
The same old ones are not good for their own shoes, you have to buy a pair of sturdy leather boots, and you should equip yourself with a set of leather armor or chain mail, plate armor and other armor to increase your defense, of course, the premise is not to affect your flexibility, affect the play of battle.........
After a simple calculation, he found that almost all of his equipment had to be replaced, and it would be better if he found a seller who could customize weapons and equipment, thinking of this, Barron immediately couldn't wait to go to the weapons trading market in the east of the city to have a look. But he is not familiar with it here, whether it is to buy ready-made or customized, he doesn't know it.
"If you want, just go to Pander, he'll be happy to help you, but now isn't the time to think about that, we'll be here for a few days anyway, so it's good to find a time and let Pander take you there." Old Johnny said.
Hearing old Jonny say this, Barron let go of his impatience and prepared to go to Pande again tomorrow to see if he could help.
Then Old Johnny didn't let Barron leave alone, but took Barron to the hall of the tavern.
At this time, in the tavern hall, all the chamber of commerce guys, including Pan De, and the members of the chamber of commerce's escort team were there, it seems that the tavern was chartered by the chamber of commerce today, which is the reserved program for the end of each mission of the Jonny Chamber of Commerce.
The tavern even thoughtfully built a humble stage.
Old Johnny walked to the center of the stage with Pande and Barron, took the glass containing a slow glass of rye wine from the man's hand, and then Old Johnny raised the glass in his hand and said to everyone under the stage.
"First of all, thank you very much for your dedication to this mission, so that our caravan arrived safely in Curtain City. Old Jonny spoke eloquently on the stage, "I guess you have already received this month's pay today." ”
Speaking of this, most of the people under the stage laughed, although the reward for this mission was not the highest, but because of the wolf disaster on the way, old Johnny added a part of the reward before entering the city, resulting in a good salary this time, many people who have begun to run out of silver coins during this time have long been looking forward to this month's salary.
As for the guards who died in the wolf plague or the caravan mates, there was another pension.
"Originally, according to the predetermined plan, our side should have to leave for home the day after tomorrow, but because of a little thing, it may be a few more days to delay the end of the city. Old Jonny waited for the laughter to be a little quieter before continuing: "I also know that this is not in line with the plan, many people may be dissatisfied with this, everyone can rest assured, no more than 7 days, we can go back again, of course, during this time, we will still settle the salary according to the task time, and we will definitely not treat everyone badly." ’
"Okay!" After listening to old Jonny's words, everyone in the audience applauded, and some people with families under the stage felt slightly depressed, because they had to delay their return home, but old Jonny also said that they would be paid double pay during this time, and they didn't have much opinion, after all, they still had a family to support.
The rest of the people are basically single, and not only are they not dissatisfied when they hear Old Johnny's words, but they are more happy, because although there are no tasks these days, the training at a fixed time every day has consumed most of their energy, so that they have no extra time to visit the nightlife of Ending City these days.
Originally, they were still complaining in private, and the good rest time was used for training, and they didn't have time to visit the entertainment venues of the Ending City, and then the caravan was going to set off according to the predetermined plan, and as long as the escort mission started, even if you had more silver coins in your hand, whether it was wine or beautiful women, you were not allowed to touch it again.
But now there are 7 more days to spare. Presumably, it won't be long before most of the guards and caravan guys get their salaries today will fall into the hands of many casinos, taverns, and nightingales in the city of the end.
The expressions of everyone under the stage were in the eyes of old Johnny, and he smiled and drank the rye wine in the glass. Then he stepped off the stage, pulled Pande and Barron out of the tavern hall, and gave up the entire hall space to his men to rejoice, anyway, he had prepared enough rye wine in the hall to splurge them on.
It was the first time for Barron to participate in a drinking party in the other world, and he wanted to stay with the others and take a fresh look by the way, but he was pulled out by old Jonny.
"Don't worry, today is just a small gathering within our own Chamber of Commerce, and there will be a bigger banquet in two days, and most of the high-ranking people in the Closing City will be present at that time, and Barron will also come with you, to ensure that it will be more lively than today." Pande seemed to see Barron's thoughts, and said lightly.
When Barron heard Pande say this, he let go of the idea of turning around and going back to the hall.
"By the way, Barron, you don't have a special party dress, do you?" said Old Johnny.
Barron shook his head, Barron had more or less participated in various banquets in his previous life, but he had not participated in the banquets in another world, neither he nor his predecessor had participated, so he didn't know what the special banquet dress looked like.
