Xiao Wang, the great name Wang Qinian, is the Orion of Watch City.

The five or six people led by him and Uncle Li were originally a small team. By venturing to hunt outside the Overwatch Valley, he got some demon beasts back and sold them to Dingjiabao, barely enough to make ends meet.

But more than ten days ago, the City Lord's Mansion was razed to the ground by a fire, and Dingjiabao suddenly changed people and no longer bought demon beasts. This made Wang Qinian's life difficult all of a sudden!

Some hunters began to sell their prey in the market by themselves, and Uncle Li also sold everyone's harvest when he saw this.

Because there is no light meat for sale, everyone has to buy it. But compared to light meat, the price of untreated demon beasts is much more expensive, and people who need to buy meat hesitate and reduce the number of purchases.

Eat less, and you won't starve. But if you run out of salt, you might just have to die!

"Uncle Li, are you going to hunt tomorrow?" Wang Qinian came to Uncle Li's house and asked with some meager hope.

Uncle Li smiled bitterly, pointed to the dozen or so demon beast corpses piled up in the small courtyard and said, "There are still so many that have not been sold, so I won't go tomorrow." ”

He saw Wang Qinian's embarrassed expression, and said, "You can take another demon beast back." Although there is a shortage of salt for a while, you should not be hungry. ”

Wang Qinian also smiled bitterly, as a hunter in the Overwatch Valley, he was lucky, as long as he was willing to contribute, he could always harvest some prey, and he would not be hungry.

But you can't just eat some animal meat in life, right?

Take Wang Qinian, for example, he needs salt now.

The old lady in the family has asthma again, and she went to buy medicine to get flower salt; Xiaohua's father also hinted to him a few times in secret, both of them are not young, and it is time to get married, but where does this salt come from?

It turns out that by hunting, he can always save some salt little by little, and he can also use the word "drag" for Xiaohua's family, and then drag it for a year and a half, and he can barely save salt for marriage.

But now, he can't say it anymore, let Xiaohua wait, wait a little longer!

It turned out that let the family "wait", Wang Qinian still had some confidence, and he could complain about Xiaohua's father behind his back a few words of "knowing salt". Why do you want to "wait" now? If you wait, will the salt come out of thin air?

"Xiao Wang, I still have some salt here, you can use it first. Uncle Li took out the treasured three taels of salt from the corner of the four walls of the house and handed it to Wang Qinian.

"I can't want it!" Wang Qinian jumped up and shrank back as if he had been burned by fire.

"Then you don't want to buy medicine for your mother's illness?"

Wang Qinian gritted his teeth, took the salt from Uncle Li's hand with a cheeky face, and said, "Uncle Li, I'll take this salt and use it first, and I will return it to you as soon as possible." ”

Everyone is poor, if Wang Qinian is the only one by himself, young and strong, he can't say anything and can't accept Uncle Li's salt. Look at how old Uncle Li has become, he is a lonely widow, it is not easy to save a little salt, and he has to use it for the elderly. With Uncle Li's salt, Wang Qinian felt very uncomfortable.

But now Wang Qinian has no choice, he can boil it himself, but what should the old lady do? I can only accept Uncle Li's salt and go to get some medicine for the old lady first.

"Xiao Wang, it's really not good, tomorrow you go to the mine to pick spirit stones. Although I can't earn a lot of salt, I can exchange some of it for some expenses. Uncle Li hesitated.

As hunters, they are at least qi practitioners. Although sometimes I will go to pick some spirit stones to use, in the past two years, most of the people who have mined spirit stones to exchange for salt are ordinary people who have no skills.

Is he really going to fall to that point? Wang Qinian smiled bitterly again, when has it been, and he is still thinking about that worthless face?

He said to Uncle Li: "Okay, I'll go to the mine tomorrow to have a look, and I'll go buy medicine first." ”

After buying the medicine, there was less than one or two salts left, Wang Qinian thought about it and decided to give it to Xiaohua.

Xiaohua's family was originally helping Wanshi Cloth Village weave cloth, but after the great changes in Overwatch City that night, Cloth Village no longer provided raw materials for weaving, and her family suddenly lost its income.

I'm better, I can't use unsellable beast meat to fill my stomach if I don't have income, but Xiaohua's family has no salt, so I can't even afford beast meat. If I hadn't sent half of the demon beast over, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to open the pot.

As he walked down the street, Wang Qinian saw a large number of people sticking notices on the street.

He didn't want to pay attention to it, but when he remembered that he had posted a notice last time, saying that the city lord had been replaced by a person named Chen Hao, and his life had become difficult since then. This made Wang Qinian feel that his life was mostly related to this notice.

Thinking of this, he walked up to him and asked, "Brother, what is going on here?"

Wang Qinian was illiterate, and he thought that if he could change to a city lord like Han Sui before, maybe life would be better again. This new city lord named Chen Hao is really not very good.

"This is a recruitment notice, which says that anyone who can practice qi can sign up to participate. The questionee glanced at Wang Qinian and explained to him.

"Zhengding? What are you going to do? Do you have a salary?" Wang Qinian was moved.

There is only a limit to what can be done in Overwatch, and it is not easy to earn some salt. How can Wang Qinian say that he also has spiritual roots, and those who practice qi belong to only one or two talents out of ten people. If there is a job that specializes in recruiting qi practitioners, it is estimated that the income is higher than that of collecting some spirit stones, right?

Although he himself doesn't want to admit it, subconsciously, there is still a kind of pride that he is unwilling to compete with ordinary people for jobs.

"The place where Ding was recruited is in Dingjiabao, look at it yourself. The questionee was a little impatient, and sent Wang Qinian away with one sentence.

Wang Qinian was a little excited in his heart, he didn't care about this attitude, and thanked the man before speeding up and walking home.

After returning home, he first boiled the medicine for the old lady, served the old lady to take the medicine, and told the old lady that he was going out for a while.

Then he came to Xiaohua's house, ignored Xiaohua's father's disdainful and disappointed eyes, and quietly gave Xiaohua the remaining bit of salt, and said, "If you need something, buy it yourself, I will have a new job to do soon, and there will be no shortage of salt, you don't have to worry about me." ”

Although the eight characters have not been skimmed yet, men must not complain in front of women, and their confidence still has to be taken out.

After saying goodbye to Xiaohua, Wang Qinian rushed to Dingjiabao in the west of the city without stopping.

On the way, I met two partners who had been hunting together, and after asking, everyone went to apply.

Although the hunters can sell their prey by themselves, under the influence of the original habits, the common people are still unwilling to spend more money on the original animal meat, so many hunters have lost their income all of a sudden. Now that I heard that the city was going to recruit soldiers, many of the original hunters rushed to enlist.

"What is the city lord Zhengding going to do?" the partner didn't figure it out, so he asked Wang Qinian.

"I'm going to ask you...... Forget it, just ask others when you get to Dingjiabao. Wang Qinian said.
