"Cheers Three corner cups bumped together, and the fragrant foam of the wheat wine spread all over. Suok, the dwarf, green and Zhao Mai, the mad rat, are sitting around the dining table of the tavern. The joy of their reunion is beyond words.

    "I''m so glad to see you. I thought you were trapped in the farmer''s forest and couldn''t get out of it." Green gave a hiccup and hit his fist on his chest. He laughed twice: "OK, now I''m sure you''re OK. That''s the best thing. Although we haven''t been together for a long time, we''ve all had a rough time without you, haven''t we, sock? "

    "I don''t feel too much. I''ve been by the fire all day and had a good time." Dwarf is still very upright, one hand raised the bucket to everyone to fill the corner glass.

    "Ha, he''s just like this. He always leads a very pure life and leaves a lot of things to me." Green put a piece of ham in his mouth and asked vaguely, "what have you been doing these months? I thought I could always hear something about the Musketeers, but nothing happened. "

    Zhao Mai waved his hand. "I didn''t do anything. I just saw the scenery. There''s nothing to say. Let''s talk about what you''ve done. "

    "That''s good!" Green swallows the things in his mouth. It seems that he is ready to talk about it. "With the money you left, the two of us bought a blacksmith''s shop, transformed it into a small alchemy workshop, and then started to work. Sok is in charge of making things, and I''m in charge of purchasing, management and so on. Originally, I proposed to sell one or two muskets, so that I could earn back the capital as soon as possible, but the dwarf didn''t want to. Later, we discussed for a long time, and there was a quarrel in the middle, but no one was convinced. I''m waiting for you to come back and judge. "

    "Ah?" Zhao Mai Leng looked at the dwarf and said, "sock, green wants to sell guns to make money. Why don''t you want to sell guns? Can you give me a reason? "

    "I think I still have a lot of things I don''t understand. I always think there will be an important breakthrough right away, but I''m stuck in my throat all the time. I just can''t get out." The dwarf shook his head: "I''m a little anxious now. I just want to study and study again. I really don''t want to do repetitive craftsmanship work to earn money."

    "Well, I can understand that as a researcher as well as a craftsman, I''m really busy." Zhao Mai nodded. "Green, what''s the other business situation I''ve taught you?"

    "It''s a good thing there''s that thing, or the blacksmith''s daily expenses won''t last." Green said in a low voice: "but recently, I have noticed something wrong. It seems that there are rumors about the alchemy salt of the elves. In order to ensure safety, it has not been delivered for a long time, which is why the blacksmith shop needs to support itself. "

    "Well, I see." Zhao Mai stretched out his arms and hugged the two men''s shoulders at the same time. He said, "I''ll find a way to deal with this. Research or making money, there are always ways to balance the two. Let''s not talk about that today. Let''s get together first! "

    "Yes, but I can''t get drunk." Suok, the dwarf, was still bald. After the siege, he became bald for some reason. "In the evening, I have to build some parts and improve the ignition device. I can''t play with you very late."

    "He''s like this. Don''t worry about it." Green comforted Zhao Mai.

    While eating, several people talked about the recent situation of neibo town. The last siege ended with the victory of neibo Town, but it also exposed the weakness of the town. This is not a problem that can be solved by building high city walls and more defensive towers, but a more powerful security mechanism is needed. We found that relying solely on the loose organization of guilds can save a lot of manpower at ordinary times and solve all kinds of problems efficiently, but it can not be tough in an emergency. Reward can only be used as an aid, and obedience to orders is the basis of military combat effectiveness. It''s tolerable to be inefficient at ordinary times, but it won''t kill people after all. It''s a matter of life and death that we can''t play our combat effectiveness in a critical moment. The elders of the town gathered together to revise some of the guild''s policies and set up a permanent army with some shares.

    No one can get information on how to do it, but I believe it will be announced before the first snow in winter. Because we don''t know whether the new policy is good or bad for the current adventurers, most of them seize the time to complete the task at hand and get all kinds of rewards as soon as possible. The town of neibo is always very busy. The adventurers in and out are like the pine trees in the forest. They are busy collecting food for the winter.

    Nebo town repelled the attack of ramashitu, the mother of monsters and the God of nightmare, but the farmer forest failed to resist. There has now become a monster forest, where all kinds of monsters with strange shapes and no one can tell their origins occupy, and the scale is expanding day by day. No one knows about the Druids, so most of the townspeople are pessimistic.

    All kinds of monsters use the forest as a base and continue to pose a threat to the surrounding villages. Several times, monsters even attack the castle. Langer town is almost gone, only a small number of people stick to it and turn it into a forward base for adventurers. More southward Baron gauduria, under the protection of Baron pides, has become a solid fortress to prevent the monster from going south. On the plain, monsters are not the opponents of humans who have battle lines, but humans also have no ability to go deep into the forest to eradicate monsters. The Baron, who was very disturbed, offered a good reward. At present, the number of monsters in the farmer''s forest does not seem to decrease. Therefore, this direction has attracted a large number of adventurers to fight in the front line of killing demons and demons for the sake of gold and the well-being of people in the world."In fact, I think this is the best time to sell muskets." Green''s face turned red, but he couldn''t help saying: "the price of crossbows has gone up before, but now almost all weapons have gone up, and the alchemy materials also have this trend. He is not in charge of his family, and he doesn''t know that firewood and rice are expensive. If he can''t get in or out, he will spend all his money sooner or later. "

    Suok, the dwarf, hiccups and feels as if he can''t drink any more. He suddenly stood up and said to Zhao Mai, "master Mike, I''ll go back now and finish what I''m doing. I''ll listen to you tomorrow. You have enough to eat and drink and have a good rest. Green has arranged it for you. I don''t know what it is

    "Yes, you go. I''ll play for a while."

    The dwarf shakes his head and walks towards the gate. Just as he pushes the door, herol, the paladin of aomede, comes in. Her long legs immediately attract Zhao Mai''s attention.

    The volume of the tavern suddenly dropped by 20 decibels, and most of the eyes were attracted by the female paladins. Herr seems to have been used to this kind of scene for a long time. She looks around in a friendly and polite way, and then comes straight to Zhao Mai.

    Green shut up with his hand and whispered, "beautiful women can cheat. Be careful. You''d better not agree to anything."
