After a while, the sound of boots stamping on the stone bricks was heard again. After catching up with the team and asking for details, Diana trotted all the way back to Chen Hao.
"Huh huh huh..." The little girl patted her chest, which was one size larger than her peers. It seemed that this extra burden made her cardiopulmonary capacity worse than her peers.
"Master Chen Hao, I asked. Daily settlement is possible, but the price will be a bit high. And you need to pay three days' commission first. I will give the money to the Roger Guild." Diana said solemnly.
Chen Hao nodded after hearing this. The "handling fee" of Rogge's union was not high, and it was deducted from the overall commission. This transaction was fairly fair.
"Then how much do you plan to charge?" Chen Hao asked.
When talking about money, the little girl's face turns red.
She recalled that her other sisters had just taught her not to be too practical and to ask for as much as possible when negotiating the price, so that she would have room to bargain.
After bowing her head and struggling for a long time, Diana slowly stretched out her two small hands and spread her fingers.
"Ten gold coins a day, Lord Chen Hao."
"Okay, deal." Chen Hao agreed without blinking.
"If you think it's too much, I can... eh? What? You, you agreed?" Diana's eyes widened, her pupils shining like two purple gems.
"Isn't it just 10 gold coins? I can afford it." As he said that, Chen Hao took out three bottles of Xiaohong from the storage space. "Here, you can take them back and return to life first. I'll buy some equipment and other daily necessities. In the afternoon
I will go to Rogge Guild to sign a contract with you at four o'clock. Let's pack up and set off early tomorrow morning."
"Well! Thank you, Mr. Chen Hao!" The little girl happily took the three bottles of Xiaohong, bowed and ran away.
Looking at Diana's back, Chen Hao couldn't help but slap himself.
This damn lolicon!
After taking care of Diana, Chen Hao walked towards the living area again.
Whether it was tents, bedding, clothing, flint, food, condiments and other items that did not involve magic items, they were purchased with civilian currency issued by Westmarch, and they were very cheap. Chen Hao could buy them all with just one gold coin.
After purchasing daily necessities, Chen Hao came to a dilapidated weapons store.
Chen Hao was too embarrassed to go into those clean-looking shops. Now that he was short of money, he really couldn't muster up the courage to ask for prices.
When I entered the weapons store, I saw that all the weapons sold were the most basic weapons with no attributes, and some were even only half-durable.
Chen Hao looked at it, pointed at the short bow hanging on the wall, and asked: "Boss, how much does this bow cost?"
"Dear adventurer, this bow has full durability and is worth 30 gold coins!"
Good guy, it turns out that bows are also durable, right?
Chen Hao dug his toes on the ground in embarrassment. Who would have thought that this crappy weapon would cost so much!
"What about these bows and arrows?" Chen Hao asked, pointing to the arrows piled up in the corner.
"These are the most basic magic arrows. They can be used a second time if they are not damaged after being shot. There are 10 arrows for 1 gold coin. If you buy 100 arrows, you will get a quiver for free."
Can a hundred arrows kill a hundred fallen demons?
Chen Hao muttered.
If it doesn't work, let the little girl be more diligent and exercise her physical strength by recovering arrows.
Thinking of this, Chen Hao took out 10 gold coins and put them on the table, "Give me a tube."
...
When he arrived at Rogge Guild at four o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Hao only had 2 gold coins and a bottle of red in his pocket.
In other words, if the two of them don't play 8 gold coins tomorrow, Chen Hao will either let the little girl go back to the camp, or he will owe the little girl money.
Thinking of this, Chen Hao shook his head, no matter what, let's trick the little girl out first!
The Rogge Guild is located in the north of the camp. It is a hall built of stone bricks. Behind the hall is the shooting range, which is used by the Rogges for daily training.
"Lord Chen Hao, are you here?"
Diana had already been standing at the door, looking forward to the stars and the moon, waiting for Chen Hao.
Seeing Chen Hao coming as requested, he jumped forward happily and introduced Chen Hao into the Rogge Guild Hall.
The clerk in charge of signing the contract was also a Rogge. This Amazon, who was different from the others, was sitting at the table wearing a pair of elegant glasses and squinting at Chen Hao.
"Hello, Master Necromancer Chen Hao, I heard that you want to hire Roger Diana as your follower?"
"That's right." Chen Hao nodded and sat down. He could tell at a glance that the other person's glasses were just frames.
"Are you sure you want to hire her? She is still young and has no actual combat experience at all. And she has only awakened auxiliary skills such as inner vision. If you take her out to travel, she will only become a burden to you."
Chen Hao frowned. He didn't expect this personality clerk to be so nagging.
Diana on the side seemed to be afraid of the other person, sitting on the chair staring at her hands without saying a word.
"What? Do I need any other conditions for hiring her?" Chen Hao said with some dissatisfaction.
"No, Mr. Chen Hao." The secretary said neither humble nor overbearing, "It's just that she is still a member of our Rogge. I really don't want to see her go out and die in vain. If you need a powerful Rogge to help you fight against the devil
, I can help you recommend some suitable sisters..."
Only then did Chen Hao remember what the adventurer in the audience said when he was watching the Rogge show during the day.
Some adventurers hire Roger just because they want to have an extra "life" in a critical moment.
After the adventurer and Rogge sign a soul contract, if Rogge dies during the contract period, as long as the body is kept intact, the adventurer can bring the body back and then resurrect it with a large number of precious materials.
But few adventurers do this.
In their eyes, these mercenaries are just human shields at critical moments.
If this one dies, just hire another one.
Thinking of this, Chen Hao said solemnly: "I will not do such a despicable thing. We are just practicing in the bloody wasteland near Rogge Camp. If there is danger, I can take her and escape immediately."
"What's more, I have this." After saying that, Chen Hao took out the letter of return to the city and showed it, "Is there any problem now?"
The secretary had seen the return book, but she didn't know that there was no return scroll in it.
Hearing Chen Hao's unquestionable tone, he turned and looked at the little girl: "Diana, have you memorized Roger's Survival Manual?"
"Yes, I know it by heart, instructor Katarina." Diana whispered.
"Since you know it by heart, you should know. Once you are hired by an adventurer, your duty is to protect your employer with all your strength, even if it costs your life, do you understand?"
"Well, I know, I will protect Master Chen Hao!" The little girl nodded sternly.
"Well, then, you can discuss the next thing among yourselves." As she said, Catalina took out a parchment roll from the drawer and placed it in front of the two of them. "If both parties have no objections, then it's okay.
The soul contract has been signed. Diana, you have grown up and you have to be responsible for your own life."
"No problem, Instructor Katarina, one day I will become a great Roger like my sister!"
"Oh, it's not enough to be a Rogge like your sister. You have to awaken all the Amazon skills and then become a real job transferer. Just like the Master Chen Hao in front of you, do you understand?"
For some reason, when Catalina said the four words "Lord Chen Hao", she glanced pointedly, as if there was some other meaning in her words.
But the little girl didn't have so many ideas. She came to Chen Hao excitedly with the parchment and said: "Master Chen Hao, as long as you drop our blood on it, I will be yours in the next month!"
Good guy, is it so easy to sell yourself in Sanctuary?
Seeing the little girl skillfully take out a knife and cut her finger, and drop a bright red drop on the sheepskin roll, Chen Hao felt cruel, bit his finger with his teeth, and squeezed a drop of red on the sheepskin roll.
The moment it received the second drop of blood, a white smoke erupted from the parchment, and then it quickly burned to death.
At this moment, Chen Hao's soul seemed to have established some kind of connection with Diana. Looking at the little girl with the princess cut in front of him, he felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
"Here, here's your wages for tomorrow." Chen Hao took out the last bottle of Xiaohong and the quiver he just bought, and handed them over.
"Wow! Thank you, Mr. Chen Hao. I will definitely aim well and let these magic arrows fully exert their power!" The little girl took the quiver excitedly, but did not take Xiaohong. "Sir Chen Hao, you have already arrived in advance.
I’ve paid commission for three days, please wait until the fourth day to settle the wages for me!”
What a considerate little girl. At this moment, Chen Hao wanted to hold her in his arms and kiss her hard on her sensible face.
But looking at Catalina with contempt, Chen Hao coughed a few times.
"Just take it if I ask you to. What does this small amount of money count?"
With that said, Chen Hao directly forced Xiaohong into Diana's hand.
"The handling fees for those three days are mine. From now on, you just need to get your wages on time every day!"
After hearing this, Catalina nodded with satisfaction and turned to leave.
