Chapter 49: Minagarde's Workshop
Back in Minagard City, it was already evening a few days later.
The three of Gordon made a beeline for the Hunters' Gathering - for hunters who had just completed their mission, settling the mission was always the highest priority.
The Kanban girls standing in front of the task counter are still Tiki and March.
Seeing Gordon and them coming, Tiki and March were obviously stunned, and then, the latter, as a senior, suddenly pressed the back of Tiggie's neck, pressed her and bowed deeply to Gordon together, and said loudly:
"This mission was an oversight on our part, and I'm sorry, Mr. Gordon!"
Tiki seemed to remember something not so good, her eyes turned red, she snorted, and apologized aggrievedly: "I didn't pay attention, I'm sorry......"
At first, Gordon didn't react, and helped the two Kanban girls up in confusion, until he listened to March's explanation, and he didn't understand the reason for all this.
As soon as they left that day, the president, who had learned of the mission information from Amos, severely punished the staff in charge of intelligence gathering and mission verification.
Although Tiggie, who handled the task registration procedures for Gordon, was not the main person responsible, she was also scolded by the president.
Kanban Niang, who is in charge of registering the task, is the last level to review the mission information, but this guy not only didn't find the hidden danger in the mission, but also happily recommended it to Gordon.
If it weren't for March's concealment of "introducing tasks as a reward for petting cats" for her, it would have been possible for the president, who was angry at the time, to fire her on the spot......
A few more people chatted a few more words.
When Tiki and March learn from Hayatta that they had indeed encountered the king of the Strangeface Clan in the hunting grounds, and that Gordon would have been almost gone if Amos hadn't intervened in time, the two Kanban girls were even more shocked.
Tiki, who was still a little aggrieved in her heart, was even more overwhelmed by guilt.
She bowed earnestly to Gordon again, and solemnly promised in a rare earnestness that she would carefully examine every slip of the task in the future.
The process of settling the task was not complicated, and in just a few minutes, Gordon was paid the 4,300 gold.
According to Gordon's thoughts, Amos taught himself a lot in this mission and saved his own life, and even if the more than 4,000 gold was paid, he should be paid.
However, Amos's attitude was quite resolute, and he had said before the mission that he and Hayatta would not be paid for this mission.
In fact, Gordon also understands that, to put it bluntly, Amos saved Pine and Hayatta before returning Gordon's favor.
Gordon, who couldn't resist the other party, finally accepted the money, but he then proposed that he treat him to a big dinner to celebrate the successful completion of the mission.
This time, Amos did not refuse again, and used his preferential authority to order, and the three of them and one cat ate more than 1,000 gold for a sea and land meal, which can be regarded as a successful end to this cooperation.
After exchanging contact addresses, Gordon said goodbye to Amos and Hayata.
He wasn't going to trouble the pair of masters and apprentices too often, after all, the other party also had their own training plan, and it was not good for anyone to follow them all day long.
After saying goodbye, Gordon and Pork Chop returned to their own little room.
After hanging the weapon and armor on the corresponding pylon, Gordon collapsed heavily on the not-so-large bed, and the pork chop jumped up.
The boy and the cat stretched out in unison and yawned lazily.
I only stayed for one night, and it still seemed a little unfamiliar cottage, but at this time it also had a little more homely warmth.
"Sniff, Gordon, you should go take a shower, meow, the sheets will stink if you continue like this."
"Heh, you're right, let's go to the bathhouse to soak in the hot spring sauna and relax."
"Don't meow! The water there scalded meow! ”
"If you don't soak for half an hour, no one is allowed to come out!"
"Say no meow!"
......
On the second morning, after washing, exercising, and eating breakfast, Gordon didn't run directly to pick up new tasks like a mission maniac.
There is a degree of relaxation, and the combination of work and rest is the long-term way.
Today, Gordon plans to visit the nearby blacksmith's workshop, which is always around the city of Minagard for a while.
The occasional lazy pork chop is left by Gordon at the Hunters' Club, where you can usually see a lot of hunting cats who are not on a mission, and the little one may be able to make a few friends to talk to.
The workshop is also located in the trade circulation area, close to the river, and only two or three minutes' walk from the Hunter's Guild.
As the most famous workshop in Minagarde, it is much larger than the blacksmith shop in the village of Cocot, and its four chimneys, which are two or three stories high, are constantly smoking, which can be seen from afar, which is very magnificent.
Armed hunters were everywhere near the workshop, as was Gordon himself, who had developed the strange habit of wearing armor as a regular attire.
Gordon came at a good time, it was still relatively early, and there weren't many customers in the workshop, so he was able to meet the owner of the workshop directly.
The owner of the workshop is an elderly male dragonman.
In terms of human appearance, he looks like he is about sixty years old, his skeleton is relatively large, and his once full and bulging muscles have atrophied, but he still gives people the feeling of being old and strong, far from the level of Alzheimer's disease of the village chief.
When Gordon came up to him, he was shoving a piece of flavored tobacco into his mouth and chewing slowly.
Gordon had heard that sailors loved this kind of chewing tobacco for ten minutes, and that the workshop owner did have the hard-core look of an old sailor.
"Hello."
As a junior, Gordon greeted politely, and the boss nodded to him, not too enthusiastic, but not cold.
"Hello young man, have you just come to Minagarde?"
The workshop owner greeted him, his eyes swept over Gordon's armor and weapons behind him, as he was accustomed to as a craftsman.
"yes, it's only been a few days." Gordon replied with a smile.
"Forging? Aggrandizement? Maintenance? What do you want to build? It's not modest to say that our craftsmanship is the best in the whole rice city. "The boss's personality is very simple, and after a simple and polite sentence, he got to the point.
Gordon nodded, he really wasn't just here to hang out.
After fighting the King of the Strange Faces before, one of the hooks of the Bursting Knife was smashed and deformed, and it could not be retracted from the sword, so it had to be repaired so as not to affect the next hunt.
Remove the blaster from your back and place it horizontally in front of the workshop owner.
Without him to explain, the boss had already picked up a small hammer and checked it on his own.
When it comes to the Bursting Knife, the Workshop Owner is all too familiar with it.
The power is good, the materials are easy to obtain, and at least half of the ten great sword envoys have used this kind of big sword, and the internal structure is clear.
After a while, he raised the blasting knife and operated it lightly a few times, the hook claw flexibly popped out and retracted, and the workshop owner couldn't help but nod, "The craftsmanship is not bad." ”
As a master of forging, being able to be worthy of him is already quite a high evaluation.
