When we came out of the Guardian Temple, it was getting late, the gorgeous sunset covered half of the sky, and the number of pedestrians on the street gradually became sparse.
Ren returned to his old house and spent the whole night speechless.
Early the next morning, not long after Ren got up, the priest guarding the temple came to the door and was responsible for the verification and transfer of the property.
After spending half an hour to sort out these things, from today on, this old house no longer belongs to Ren, but is the private property of the guardian church.
After sending the priest away, he simply packed up, put all his belongings into the dimensional bag, and Renn walked out of the old house.
Turning his head to look at the manor standing in the morning light, the paladin shook his head, dispelled the only trace of melancholy in his heart, and walked towards the direction of the guardian temple.
Starting today, he is going to start training in the temple, trying to regain some of his abilities and expertise as a legendary warrior, and prepare for future adventures.
However, things always happen unexpectedly.
As he turned around a small alley, a familiar voice stopped him.
Ren turned around and saw that it was the dwarf Nan Zhuo whom he had rescued from the Phandalin Mine.
Renn:???
Barrel Dwarf, you are just looking for a chance to drink a few more drinks, right?!
"Also, I promised Nan Zhuo that I would help him pay back the wine money he owed."
"I heard that you single-handedly took down the Red Label Gang that day? I can only say, my friend, you did a great job! However, this is not the place to talk. Let's go to the tavern to find a seat. There are some things I
I need to tell you slowly. Think about it, as a rich man, you don’t mind if I kill you, right?”
Ah, my damn charm that has nowhere to be placed╮(╯_╰)╭
Nanzhuo did not answer, but gave Ren a thumbs up, without concealing his appreciation.
Nan Zhuo looked at the boss lady who changed her face during the performance, and felt a little broken for a moment. He pointed at Ren and said:
"When I come here to drink, the price is more expensive every time. Why is it free when he comes to the pub?"
However, the next moment, an angry female voice reached Ren's ears.
"Is there any news from you now?"
The two came to the Gray Eagle Tavern not far from the town hall. Nan Zhuo opened the door curtain and shouted loudly:
"Lady boss, bring me a bucket of good vodka and treat the handsome guy next to you!"
Accompanied by a rush of footsteps, a tall woman with a lioness-like expression quickly walked down from the second floor of the tavern.
"Hey, Ren, why do you want to come to my sister's place today? If you want to drink something, just order it. I'll treat you to my sister today."
Hearing that there was a drink, Nan Zhuo immediately had a good impression of Ren.
…………
Ren turned around, looked at the dwarf who had just grown up, and asked with a smile.
Don't think I didn't see it!
"Haha, my fault, my fault! You and I have forged a deep friendship a long time ago. When we get to the tavern, I will punish myself with three drinks to express my apology."
Renn laughed and extended his hand to invite.
He's so handsome, isn't he?
If you are handsome, if you are handsome... you can have sex for free?
What kind of world is this!!
When Nan Zhuo said this, Ren was immediately interested.
"Come on, that's interesting!"
"Thank you brother, otherwise I would have made a fool of myself today."
"Sister Freya, I'm here to discuss things with Nanzhuo. Could you please help us open a silent cubicle. I'd like to thank you first." Faced with the enthusiastic landlady, Ren couldn't bear it for a while and cursed secretly.
It was all caused by his charismatic charm. In the past, when the landlady saw me, she would only look at her frequently and would not take the initiative like today.
Nanzhuo said seriously.
"Oh, then I want to listen carefully to see what good news you have brought."
"Um...that's okay."
When talking about business, the dwarf's expression became much more serious.
Good guy, are you preparing to kill me?
But for the sake of you calling me handsome guy, I won’t argue with you.
"Weren't we friends before? At any rate, I rescued you Nan Zhuo from the hands of the drow mage." Renn looked heartbroken.
"I, Nan Zhuo, have decided to make you your friend!"
Ren smiled and put in a good word for the landlady, pushed a glass of ale in front of the dwarf, and took the initiative to change the topic.
"Nan Zhuo, when will I pay back the twenty silver lion coins I owed last time? Also, don't act like a city dweller and ask me what vodka I want. Fanlin Town is just a village and only has ale. If you want to drink it,
Just pay back the money first. If you don’t want to drink, then keep your mouth shut and pay back the money you owe me for the wine. Otherwise, you won’t be able to leave the Gray Eagle Tavern today!”
Renn scratched his head and said.
When she saw Ren next to Nanzhuo, the anger on the landlady's face suddenly disappeared and replaced with a smile.
When Freya saw Ren opening his mouth, she thought for a moment and finally reluctantly agreed.
Nanzhuo was almost autistic after what the landlady said.
"If you still want to drink because you owe the money for the wine, the price will naturally be adjusted upward. Ren is a handsome boy, and I feel good about it. If you are willing to pay for it, it will be free. Don't accept it? Hold it in if you don't accept it! Besides, next time
If you come to the tavern to drink again, the price will be increased by one copper dragon coin!"
Before he raided the Red Label Gang's manor, he had already left the team, saying that he was going to the mayor of Fanlin Town, Gundelun, to discuss some aftermath matters. At the same time, he asked his old friend, a knowledgeable human mage,
Looking for help with that green worm in the test tube.
Renn still admires Nan Zhuo, a dwarf.
Why are there such big differences between people?
“Ding-deng-deng!”
A barrel of vodka only cost about one Golden Eagle coin, and he, Ren, could still afford it.
After all, compared to other races, dwarves are just straight-headed and not so thoughtful.
"First of all, after discussing with Mayor Gundelen, I decided to put 10% of the future revenue from the Phandalin Mine in your name as a thank you gift. This is what you deserve, and it is also a little bit of me and Fandalin Town.
Thoughts. Although there were not many when the mine first started operating, as time goes by, the benefits are still considerable."
"Looking at your complexion, Nanzhuo, it seems that things are going well?"
"Okay, now that you've said that, what else can I say? Let's go to the tavern and tell you the news you got. I hope the news will be enough to pay for your drink."
"The landlady Freya is quite nice, but she has a bit of a fierce personality. But there's nothing we can do about it. If she wasn't like this, she wouldn't be able to control the men who come to the pub to drink."
"Besides the green worm, I have two other things to tell you. Of course, they are good things."
After Ren and Nan Zhuo sat down respectively, Nan Zhuo, who had adjusted his mood, said gratefully:
After accepting the 20 silver lion coins that Ren put on the bar, Freya leaned on the bar and waved to the only bartender in the tavern to take them to a booth in the corner.
"10% profit? If that's the case, then I won't refuse."
Renn nodded and said.
Although money is not everything, nothing is impossible without money.
Paladins also need to use money to purchase equipment and props to better defeat evil!
"Secondly, there is the secret about Phandalin Mine." At this point, Nan Zhuo lowered his voice.
