After lunch, I have finished my work for the day and can take a rest. The strong man Matthew went to deliver the goods and naturally ran to the tavern immediately after getting the money.
Little Matthew went to the attic to take a nap, leaving Xining alone to look after the shop. If business comes, just wake him up. Such good days had to wait until a year later. After the strong man Matthew "accidentally" slept with his master, little Matthew was often sent to deliver goods.
Xining wandered around the shop seemingly bored and walked to the shelf.
This three-story shelf is made of wood. The bottom two floors are made of metal, which are leftover when adding magic weapons or cutting them off. The second floor was littered with various tools, including chisels, nails, and various types of knife sharpeners. On the third floor are the magic weapons.
There was a knife among them, she picked it up and pulled it out.
"Let go!" Suddenly a voice came out.
She was startled and looked around, but there was no one there.
"Stupid human, put me back, you are not my master!" The voice was sharp and mean.
This time I knew where the sound came from, and it turned out to be this knife. By the way, the magic weapon has aura, so it has its own thoughts. But what does this thing say? Stupid humans~, she narrowed her eyes...
"No, no..." Dao screamed, because Xining held the knife and sharpened the blade on the whetstone.
After looking at the blade, it turned out to be quite sharp, so...she found a hammer, put the knife on the anvil, and made a gesture of smashing it down with the hammer.
"I'm sorry!" Dao yelled.
She stopped and held her hammer high.
Seeing that it worked, Xiao Dao quickly apologized and begged for mercy: "I'm sorry, I was wrong. You are a beautiful girl with a kind heart. Adults do not remember the faults of villains. Don't break me. If you break it, I will die!"
Well~, I finally feel better. She put down the hammer she held high: "Then I forgive you for now."
"Huh~" Xiao Dao seemed to be relieved.
Think about the need for a weapon to escape: "I will be your master."
"No!" Xiaodao refused, but when he saw her raising the hammer again, she almost burst into tears and explained: "It's really not possible. I have sworn allegiance to my master. The contract will not be terminated unless the master dies or I die. If I If you betray my master, you will turn into an evil spirit, and you will never be able to find a master willing to accept me again!"
Human life is limited, but weapons can last hundreds of years if properly maintained. After the death of the old owner, the new owner of the weapon takes over and swears allegiance anew.
"Okay." Xining put down the hammer again.
Think about how useful the magic weapon is, and think about that flirtatious female knight who swung out a sword and the sword energy could kill people, killing the owner as well... I'm sweating.
"Where can I find a magic weapon like yours?" He said he wanted to get one himself.
Knife: "You can buy it in the store. There are special magic weapons for sale without owners."
Nonsense, if I had money, I would just buy it without asking.
Xiaodao should also know that she is a poor woman: "There is another possibility of inheritance, which is passed from the previous generation of owners to the next generation."
Look, is she a descendant of the knight family?
Xining, who was a little embarrassed, wanted to raise the hammer again.
Xiaodao immediately picked up: "The last one is to look at chance, such as encountering it by chance, or picking it up. If you see a war or fight, if both parties are dead, there is a chance."
Because even if there is only one alive, all the weapons will be picked up. Magic weapons have aura and temperament, and sometimes they would rather die or be dusted than swear allegiance to someone they don't want to admit. So if you don’t need it yourself, you can just pick it up and sell it. If you are not short of money, hang it on the wall at home or put it in a cabinet to show off as a trophy.
Xining thought for a while and threatened: "I can let you go, but no one is allowed to say what happened today, otherwise..." He raised the hammer in his hand.
Xiaodao was silent for a while: "What's the matter? Who are you?"
As expected, he is smart and a magic weapon with some qualifications. Satisfied, she put the knife back into its sheath and placed it on the shelf.
Returning to the straw where she slept, she began to look through the Lord's memories to see if they were useful. As a result, my memory is in chaos. Apart from the beatings, I also experienced endless humiliation a year later.
If you give up, don't expect that a person who can't even read and has no intention of doing anything except being fed will have anything in his head.
But according to experience, strong man Matthew will be back very late tonight. You can only get the remaining money after delivering the goods, usually 30% in cash, and the remaining 70% after delivery. Sometimes you can get a little reward if you do a good job. There were so many items on the shelves, and he hadn't been to the tavern for several days, so he should be looking for mostly women tonight.
If you gamble, you will lose all your money in a short time. In order to get more points, a woman will do her best to let him stay the night. The price of staying the night is different from the price of a casual sex.
Even if he couldn't stay and went to gamble, he would have to come back at least midnight. If you are lucky, it will take longer and you will come back after gambling all your money.
It's better to choose a day than to hit it. Let's escape tonight. I made a happy decision!
After making the decision, he ran to the attic, faced little Matthew who was lying down, and pretended to be submissive: "There's not much firewood left."
The owner of the body is not very strong and cannot chop firewood. Little Matthew did the wood chopping.
Little Matthew was lying comfortably, with a look of irritation on his freckled face: "I'll do it tomorrow."
Xining imitated the body master's behavior, lowered his head, and said in a voice softer than a mosquito: "If there is no firewood when we work tomorrow, dad will be angry."
It's a bit disgusting to call such a scumbag your father.
Thinking of his grumpy father, little Matthew had no choice but to get up and go to the yard full of resentment.
"That's not quite a lot, it's enough for one day." Little Matthew shouted when he arrived in the yard.
Xining quickly said: "I'll make dinner, and there's not enough meat."
"Hurry up!" Little Matthew became anxious when he heard that the meat was gone and sent her to get it.
When you go out and turn a corner, walk up a road and you will find the butcher's house. Meat is not available every day, and not many people can afford it. Killing a pig may take three days to sell. When he sees that he can't sell it, he quickly cuts it into strips and hangs it in a ventilated place to make dried meat. At night before dark, all businesses will close except pubs and hotels.
Go to the butcher and ask for a piece of meat on credit. Strong Man Matthew is one of the few people who can get credit. What he is afraid of is that he will not have the money to pay back after taking credit. But Strong Man Matthew does not have this problem. With your craftsmanship, you are not afraid of not making money.
This time she not only asked for meat, but also went to the mill shop to ask for five pounds of flour and brought it back.
As soon as he saw the flour, little Matthew shouted: "Who asked you to get flour?"
Xining lowered his head: "I think there are a lot of goods to be delivered. You have worked so hard these past two days...you have to pay for them all. In fact, this small amount of money is compared to what you spent in the tavern..." The way he hesitated to speak was so pitiful. , just like a child bride.
When little Matthew heard it, he thought so. It's not fair that his father is living and drinking in the tavern, while he is eating chaff at home.
When he got angry, he said, "Go and cook it. I want to eat batter tonight! Don't bring flour in the future. Go get some bread."
