Chapter 003 Making a living

Looking through Ruian's memories, I found that Ruian's life in Kata was even more miserable. Most of the silver coins he got from completing a mercenary mission were used to drink, and the remaining silver coins were used to buy some sesame cakes to fill his stomach.

As for the place to stay at night, when you first have silver coins, you can rent the cheapest bed in a hotel and sleep. Later, when you don't have any silver coins, you can just lie down and sleep wherever you want. You are no different from a beggar.

In the end, I ran out of silver coins, so I naturally started to work hard again, and went to the Mercenary Association to take on tasks to make money. After making money, I started drinking again. I lived like this over and over again for two years.

As he thought about it, Ruian couldn't help but smile bitterly. The life before was too simple and too decadent. Now Ruian couldn't adapt to such a life.

"No, I have to live in my own way from now on. The old Ruian is also dead." Ruian quickly made up his mind.

Now that he has made up his mind, the next step is to take action. However, Ruian can't think of a future plan yet, or in other words, Ruian hasn't had time to think about it yet.

Ruian looked at his body and found that it was too dirty. It was muddy and stained. Now Ruian found that he really accepted a body that was not so dirty. He couldn't help but despise the former Ruian. It was really dirty.

Too sloppy.

Ryan decided that the first thing he should do when he was reborn into this world was take a shower.

Looking through Ruian's memory, Ruian quickly found a public bathhouse. After paying the fee of 20 copper coins, Ruian went straight to the bucket in the bathhouse. Soaked in the bucket, and then wiped every part of his body vigorously with a cloth several times.

Later, Ruian discovered that this body looked rough, but the skin was still very delicate. It was just hard to tell unless you looked closely.

It took Ruian more than an hour to finish taking a bath and slowly came out of the bathhouse. Next, Ruian went to a clothing store and bought a burlap shirt. Then he took off his leather armor and put on a new one.

clothes.

The original leather armor didn't meet Ryan's aesthetic standards at all and felt a bit silly. The newly bought shirt was a bit too small, but after Ryan cut off the long sleeves, it turned into a tight sleeveless vest, which made it look more comfortable to wear.

It can show off the burly body. This makes Ryan very satisfied.

Night has gradually arrived in Kata City, and the heat of midsummer will slowly recede.

Only then did Ruian have the leisure to appreciate this familiar yet unfamiliar city again.

The number of pedestrians on the road becomes sparse as night approaches. Bright lanterns are lit in front of many shops, along the streets, and at intersections.

Ruian looked at the dazzling light inside the lantern and was surprised. Was it a candle? Or was it oil? Looking through Ruian's memory, he found that he didn't know what was lighting it. Ruian shook his head with a wry smile and thought: "Whatever."

What should I order? It won’t be electric anyway.”

Ruian carefully looked at the houses on both sides of the street and found that they had a bit of the European medieval style in his previous life. But to be honest, if Ruian was asked to describe what European medieval style was, judging from his ignorant memory in his previous life, it was indeed

It is difficult to force people to do what is difficult. So the so-called European style feeling refers to buildings such as attics, castles, and spires.

Ryan walked around the streets of Kata City for more than an hour, and began to lose interest in shopping. At this time, there were even fewer pedestrians on the street, but the numerous bars in Kata City were brightly lit, and from time to time there was a burst of noise.

A burst of laughter.

The former Ryan might have been in the bar, drinking and bragging. But now, the Ryan has no interest in going in, and even feels a little disgusted.

Next, Ruian found a hotel, rented a bed, and prepared to stay for one night.

Lying on the bed, looking at the roof beams, Ryan wanted to think about his future plans in detail.

This is a world of swords and magic, but Ruian has only learned some superficial sword skills before, and has no chance to learn the most important fighting spirit. He relies on his thick body to accept some simple mercenaries in the mercenary association.

With Ryan's overly simple mind, apart from being a human shield, which is dangerous and has no future, there is really no other profession that he can handle.

So when Ruian was considering whether to return to his old career, he rejected it without thinking too much. "I'm just kidding, if I still work as a human shield, which is a life-threatening profession, it would be an insult to my mind."

Thinking about it, Ruian began to outline a bright future in his mind: learn fighting spirit, practice sword skills, learn magic, defeat masters from all walks of life, pick up a beauty, obtain treasures, kill a giant dragon, and become famous in the mainland...

Ruian couldn't help laughing when he thought about the happy place.

Suddenly, Ruian's mind woke up as if he had been struck by lightning: "When I was studying in my previous life, I also fantasized about a better future, but the cruel reality made me just stay in the factory and muddle along. If I do these fantasies now,

I will continue to be confused in the future. No, I want to live down-to-earth."

After careful analysis in his mind, Ruian came to a conclusion: first find a way to solve the problem of food and clothing, and then gradually improve his own strength.

After making the decision, Ruian opened his memories of this life and discovered that Ruian was originally the son of a blacksmith in a small town near Kata City. His father taught Ruian about blacksmithing since he was a child, but Ruian, like all young people in the world, was not satisfied with such a mediocre job.

In life, the dream can be vigorous and famous in the mainland.

So, at the age of 16, Ruian, who had learned some rudimentary sword skills, left home and started a life as a mercenary.

Looking through other memories, Ruian sadly discovered that apart from being a blacksmith, Ruian didn't know any other skills. Moreover, he only knew a rudimentary blacksmithing technique.

However, Ruian is not against the blacksmithing industry now, so he decided to see if he can find a blacksmithing job tomorrow and earn some money to solve his food and clothing problem.

After making plans for tomorrow, Ruian began to close his eyes and sleep.

Ten minutes later, Ryan noticed something was wrong. He found that his mind was very clear and there was no drowsiness at all. He couldn't sleep.

No, how could this happen? In the past, Ryan should have been snoring by this time. Needless to say, in his previous life, he had already fallen asleep after working too much overtime.

Why can't I fall asleep at all now? Too excited? Not tired? I actually have insomnia.

No, I have to go to bed early, otherwise I won’t be energetic tomorrow.

Next, Ruian tried countless methods to make himself fall asleep, but he was still in good spirits and had no drowsiness. Later, when it was almost dawn, he finally felt a little sleepy and fell asleep.

At dawn, Ruian woke up and found that he had only slept for more than an hour. Although he only slept for a while, his energy was very good, as good as before after a night's sleep.

Ryan felt a little strange, but he didn't take it to heart because his main purpose today was to find a blacksmith job.

After nibbling a few unpalatable sesame cakes, Ruian started looking for blacksmith shops on the street that were inviting people.

From Ruian's memory, I know that stores that generally need to hire someone will post a note at the door to announce it.

But after Ruian walked around a few streets, he found that none of the blacksmith shops he saw had notices inviting people.

"It seems that the best way to show off the characteristics of a person in his previous life is to be thick-skinned." Ruian decided to take the initiative and directly asked the store if he wanted to hire someone.

Next, after countless inquiries, being rejected, and kicking people out, Ruian finally found a small blacksmith shop to hire someone.

This shop called Moya Blacksmith Shop has only one owner, Moya. He originally had a son to help him, but recently his son who was unwilling to be lonely left with a mercenary group. So in Moya

When Dad was still thinking about whether to ask someone to help, Ryan came in and asked if he wanted to ask someone. This made Dad Moya decide to ask someone to help.

After asking Ruian some questions and Ruian trying to forge a piece of iron, Moya's dad recognized Ruian's iron-smithing ability. However, after Ruian put forward the condition of including room and board, Moya thought carefully for a while and finally gave a monthly

A salary of 10 silver coins.

10 silver coins per month was equivalent to several hundred dollars per month in his previous life. It was a little less, but Ruian didn't care. Anyway, this blacksmithing job was not something he wanted to do for a long time, it was just a transition.

However, after thinking about it for a while, Ruian proposed a condition, which was to allow him to take some raw iron ore and make a set of his own weapons.

Father Moya was a little surprised, but considering that the raw iron ore was not worth much, he agreed.
