Mercenaries and Adventurers

Zhao Ji and his group chatted and walked towards the leather shop in the artisan area.

In fact, it’s not that far, just walk across the main road from the slums. The artisan area is still busy, the apprentices started cleaning the floor of their shop early in the morning, some were splitting wood with an ax outside the door, some were setting up the stove, and some were setting up the sunshade that was dyed black Some tents are preparing materials for work.

Apprentice carpenters are picking up hemp straw for weaving hemp rope, apprentice blacksmiths are picking up coals of suitable size, apprentice stonemasons have begun to carve a stone tombstone with a chisel, and apprentice leather makers are cleaning the blood from yesterday's skinning. Hula poor peeling rack.

Their masters were all sitting in their own workshops at this time, supervising the work of the apprentices, and there were one or two reprimands from time to time.

Seeing Zhao Ji and the others come to the door of the leather shop, the apprentices inside stopped what they were doing and looked at them. Zhao Ji and Todd walked towards the Punika craftsman when they saw him.

"Well, it's you, what's the matter? About the slime monster?" Craftsman Punica said to Zhao Ji.

"Yes. That's right. I hunted a lot of slime monsters in the swamp south of the city last night. I want to trouble Punika craftsman to bring two apprentices to go with us and count the slime monster corpses. I will trouble you later. You have dealt with it. There are a lot of slime monsters, and at least two wheelbarrows must be prepared to transport them, and it would be better if there are sacks for them." Zhao Ji whispered to the Punika craftsman.

"It's a bit too much? It takes two cars to hold it? Is this a joke?" The Punica craftsman frowned, expressing his disbelief.

"Let me tell you the truth. There are a total of sixty-four slime monsters. Don't be surprised or angry. I'm not lying. There are really so many of us. There is no need to make fun of you. It's not a prank. You'd better go and see, those slime monsters are big and small, it's hard to distinguish statistics. If you don't believe me, we have to transport those slime monsters to your shop later, but so much slime The monsters are piled up together, I am afraid that they will be damaged, and the envelope is not easy to make." Zhao Ji whispered to Todd and Punica craftsman.

Todd was surprised, but Punika craftsman was expressionless. He didn't even frown after hearing Zhao Ji's words.

Taking a breath, the Punica craftsman said to Zhao Ji: "Just trust you once and go with you. If you make fun of me, you will never come to me to deal with leather in your life."

After finishing speaking, he called two strong apprentices to the carpenter's workshop to borrow two wheelbarrows and a few big sacks to the gate of the city.

"Let's go, let them borrow things first, let's wait for them at the gate of the city first. Kenny, you wait in the shop with others, we will go out and come back before noon. You guys dirty yesterday Scrub the skinning rack, and if I don't get it clean before I get back, I won't eat today."

After explaining the work of the leather apprentices, Zhao Ji and his party walked towards the gate of the city.

On the way, Zhao Ji said to Todd who still couldn't believe it: "I'll trouble you later."

"whats the matter?"

"It's the game of hunting slime monsters between me and the blacksmith apprentice Moore. You have to call him to come and take a look with us. It's not convenient for me to call, otherwise all my friends won't be able to do it. You are the witness of the game , I’d better trouble you.” Zhao Ji winked at Todd and begged.

"Hahahaha, if you really hunted so many slime monsters, I don't know what that apprentice blacksmith will look like. Well, I'll call him, where is he?" Todd also thought of playing tricks, laughing He was talking to Zhao Ji.

"I just saw him in the grocery store next to the city gate square. He should be on duty for the grocery store these days. You must call him. You can find someone to take his place for a while, and he will be back before noon." Zhao Ji said.

Todd nodded: "Okay, wait for me a moment, I'll be right back."

After talking, a few people walked to the city gate square, and Todd turned left into the grocery store.

The craftsman Punica heard the conversation just now. He stroked his beard and asked a drinker beside him what was going on with the game about the slime monster.

The drinker told the craftsman of Punika about the slime monster game about the outlander Kiel and the blacksmith apprentice Mole two days ago. The matter is not complicated, there are only so many things before and after, and it can be finished in a few words.

Zhao Ji listened to the bragging of the drinkers in embarrassment, but when he thought of the fierce battle last night, he puffed up his chest again, and accepted all the bragging immodestly.

The two leather apprentices moved quite quickly, probably because they were afraid that their master would wait too long at the gate of the city. Zhao Ji and the others didn't wait long at the gate of the city when the two apprentices walked over quickly pushing a wheelbarrow each.

Several large sacks were set up on each of the two wheelbarrows, and they were fixed with ropes.

The two apprentices explained to the Punica craftsman how they borrowed the car, and the Punica craftsman nodded to show that he understood.

At this time, the guard at the gate of the city came over alone. It was the middle-aged guard with a two-handed sword. As soon as he came over, he expressed to Zhao Ji that he wanted to follow Zhao Ji to see if he had hunted many slime monsters last night.

Zhao Ji nodded in agreement, the more people the better, the more mixed the better. He agrees.
