After finally returning to Fengxue City, Chen Li let out a long breath. Riding a stupid horse to ride a long distance was really not an easy task.
Chen Li has already begun to miss the mount of his previous life. With such a small distance, that guy will definitely not take a day.
"When Xiao Hei grows up, you don't have to worry." Chen Li thought to himself, he couldn't wait to live a life of riding Xiao Hei.
After patting the storage bag filled with the gallbladder of an Ostrich, Chen Li rushed to the Adventurer's Guild. Having too many things was also a trouble.
The Adventurer's Guild provides adventurers with a warehouse storage function. As long as adventurers spend a certain amount of money, they can rent a warehouse to store their own things. When needed, they can just take it out.
When he arrived at the Adventurer's Guild, it was still busy here. Chen Li went straight to the administrator in charge of the warehouse.
"I want to rent a warehouse." Chen Li said calmly. He didn't know the price of the warehouse in the Adventurer's Guild yet.
The warehouse manager was a slightly overweight middle-aged man. He raised his head and glanced listlessly at Chen Li.
"Hey, it's really strange these days. A young man with no hair comes to rent a warehouse. It's really interesting." The warehouse manager thought to himself. Chen Li's clothes didn't look like he was from a wealthy family, and his face was dusty.
He looked like he had just returned from a mission.
Just think about it, which big family would not have a warehouse? Which big family would let its children go out alone to do tasks?
He's just a poor boy, he has no luck!
The warehouse manager didn't want to talk to Chen Li. His income was linked to the time and size of the warehouse rental. The longer the time and the larger the warehouse, the higher his commission.
Young people like Chen Li rent a warehouse just for fun and experience what a real adventurer life is.
"Ahem!" The warehouse manager coughed, took out a pen and paper, and said without raising his head: "Well, do you want to rent it for a day? Our warehouse here requires 1 tael of silver every five days. Here is the form. You
Just fill it out and pay."
Chen Li frowned and immediately understood what he meant by looking at this guy's appearance.
With a sharp glance at the warehouse manager, Chen Li said in a slightly cold tone: "How much does it cost per year?"
One year? Is this kid mentally retarded?
The warehouse manager almost stopped laughing. How could this big kid, who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, have so much money?
"Well, are you asking about one year? Oh, it's not much, just 7 taels of gold." After the warehouse manager finished speaking, he looked at Chen Li with disdain, wanting to see what the young man in front of him would look like.
reaction.
Chen Li's expression did not change, he nodded gently and said: "Seven taels of gold a year is cheap enough, so I'll rent it for a year first."
Snapped!
Chen Li slapped the 7 taels of gold on the table, took the form over and started filling it in, paying no attention to the arrogant guy.
"This... this..." The warehouse manager was instantly dumbfounded. Is this a joke?
That's 7 taels of gold! Even a good adventurer wouldn't come up with so much money at once.
Seeing Chen Li writing his own information on the paper, the warehouse manager quickly reacted, and his original disdain turned into a flattering and flattering smile.
"Ah, sir, do you want to rent it for a year? Oh, that would be great." The manager nodded and bowed, as if the performance just now was illusory and never happened.
Chen Li glanced at the guy lightly, handed him the form, and said nothing.
The administrator took it with both hands and said respectfully: "Sir, do you need any special storage environment? As long as it's not too special, I can make the decision to send you a suitable warehouse."
Chen Li nodded slightly, placed the storage bag on the table, and said: "Refrigerate, the temperature should be controlled at 0 degrees, not too high, not too low."
"Okay! Okay! Don't worry, I will definitely make arrangements for you." The administrator said flatteringly, renting a warehouse for a year at once. This feat is not something ordinary people can do. His commission alone can do it.
I took a lot.
This is a serious tycoon, a wealthy family!
After taking a look at the form, the administrator was stunned and said, "Ah, Chen Li?"
Chen Li raised his eyebrows, did he know about him?
The administrator who discovered his mistake quickly said with a smile: "Master, if you have any questions in the future, just come to me. I swear that you will be satisfied. Remember, any questions are welcome!"
Master?
Why would he call himself this?
Chen Li was full of doubts, but he didn't ask, nodded and turned to leave.
The administrators of the Adventurer's Guild generally only give similar honorifics to powerful adventurers, or young people with great promise.
Frowning, Chen Li stopped thinking about it. No matter what he did, he was willing to do things for himself wholeheartedly. This was so worry-free.
Arriving at the gate of the Adventurer's Guild, Chen Li glanced around and saw an acquaintance.
Zhou Ye, the leader of the Wild Wolf Mercenary Group, was leading several members to ask other adventurers something.
"Why did this guy come back so fast?" Chen Li thought curiously, and his mental power spread out in an instant.
"Is the Chen Li you are asking about a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old? And he is holding a magic sword?"
"Ah, yes, that's him, you know?"
"Who among today's adventurers doesn't know this legendary boy?"
"Legend? Brother, are you kidding me? How did he become a legend?"
"Hey, you don't know. I heard from my friends that Chen Li is a guy recorded by the Adventurer's Guild. He is still a teenager!"
"On the record? Record what?"
"Tch, are you from Fengxue City? You don't even know this!"
"Brother, tell me, we just came back from a mission and I'll treat you to a drink later."
"Hey, that's good! It's said that Chen Li participated in two missions. He was very strong in each mission. He didn't know how to use fighting spirit, and he also had a magic weapon that could immobilize monsters. He..."
…
Chen Li frowned. He didn't expect that his affairs would eventually be discovered by someone who was interested.
If you find it, you will find it. Chen Li has no intention of hiding it anyway, and now they only suspect that the magic sword in his hand is strange, and they do not suspect that he is not a swordsman at all, but a magician!
However, what do Zhou Ye and the others want from me?
"Forget it, let's go over and ask." Chen Li shook his head, wondering what to do with so many things, but the person was right in front of him, and he would know if he went to ask.
Chen Li walked slowly, and when he was still seven or eight steps away, he was spotted by a member of Zhou Ye's group.
Zhou Ye's face was filled with joy, and he turned around and said hello to Chen Li: "Haha, brother Chen Li, you make it easy for me to find you!"
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Chen Li asked doubtfully: "What do you want from me?"
Zhou Ye said with sincerity on his face: "Brother Chen Li, I came to you to ask you to join our Wild Wolf Mercenary Group. I can talk about the salary and other things, as long as you agree."
What Zhou Ye was interested in was Chen Li's strength and potential. Since he could think of how to deal with the land-walking ostrich, he would definitely know, or could think of some ways to deal with other monsters.
More importantly, Chen Li is still young now. He is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and his future is limitless!
"Join the mercenary group? Sorry, I have no intention of joining the mercenary group at the moment." Chen Li said calmly, his face as calm as an ancient well.
Forehead……
All the adventurers, including Zhou Ye, were stunned. Chen Li's refusal seemed too decisive, right?
Although the Wild Wolf Mercenary Group is not very strong now, it is still well-known in Snow Wind City, and Zhou Ye's treatment is so good. If it were anyone else, he would definitely follow suit immediately.
But Chen Li resolutely refused.
Zhou Ye is a little embarrassed. He rarely invites others to join the group, and every time he invites others, he joins immediately as if he is grateful.
This is the first time I was rejected.
"Um...brother Chen Li, do you think it is..." Zhou Ye thought for a while, then spoke, wanting to persuade him.
The talent was right in front of him, and he really didn't want to let it go.
Seeing the sincerity on Zhou Ye's face, Chen Li's heart moved.
He has no intention of joining a mercenary group, but he can cooperate with Zhou Ye. After all, he has a lot of information. As long as he can make good use of it, it will be beneficial to both parties.
Moreover, Chen Li is considered to be alone now, so it would be of great benefit to have a good relationship with the second largest mercenary group in Snowstorm City in the future.
"Captain Zhou, if you are interested, we can cooperate." Chen Li raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile.
cooperate?
Several members of the group have already started to murmur in their hearts, you are a good guy and very capable, but you are just a teenager, why should you cooperate with our group leader?
Zhou Ye is a very courageous person. He laughed and said, "Okay! Brother Chen Li, let's go have a drink. How about we sit down and talk slowly?"
"Okay!" Chen Li nodded and followed Zhou Ye towards the nearest tavern.
Arriving at the tavern, Zhou Ye asked the group members to drink in the lobby with the adventurer they had just inquired about. He and Chen Li asked for a private room.
The two sat down, and Zhou Ye said straight to the point: "Brother Chen Li, I don't know what you mean by cooperation..."
Chen Li smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass in front of him, took a sip, and said: "Captain Zhou, you need to hunt a lot of land-walking ostriches, right?"
Zhou Ye was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Yes, I recently received a mission. Someone needs materials from land-walking ostriches, but those guys are really difficult to catch."
"I can teach you how to kill an ostrich." Chen Li said calmly, with a smile on his face.
He knew that Zhou Ye would never refuse his words.
Zhou Ye was stunned, teach him how to do it?
Zhou Ye's heart twitched when he thought of Chen Li's miraculous method. If he really learned it, wouldn't the Ostrich's mission be completed very quickly? That would be a lot of income.
"Okay! No problem!" Zhou Ye quickly agreed. Who would have trouble with money?
Only a fool would refuse!
Zhou Ye was already happy inside, but to be on the safe side, he still asked: "Brother Chen Li, is there any other way besides your method of getting down from the cliff?"
It's no wonder that Zhou Ye was worried. Chen Li's method of jumping off the cliff was very easy and easy, but not everyone could do that. At least they didn't have pets to lure.
Chen Li nodded and said, "Don't worry, the method I gave you will definitely work. But I have a request."
"Okay, brother Chen Li, just say so." Zhou Ye said, but in his heart, he secretly thought that there is no free lunch in the world. He had already guessed that Chen Li would make demands.
I just wonder if Chen Li can speak like a lion?
Chen Li looked at Zhou Ye calmly and said, "I need you to sell me all the gallbladders of the land-walking ostriches you shot. Of course, the price will be lower. I want as much as you want."
