Falas asked: "Free labor?"
The skinny innkeeper said: "Yes, I work for free, and I can only eat two rough meals a day. I won’t die but I’m never full."
Falas seemed to be a little suspicious of the innkeeper's words. She stared into the eyes of the thin old man, and asked word by word: "Since working as a miner can be tax-free, then why do you open an inn?"
The skinny innkeeper sighed and said, "After all, there are plenty of copper mines here. Every year, there are a lot of businessmen coming here to buy. There is only one hotel in this city, so I can barely survive. To be honest, it's better than Those miners, I feel very satisfied."
Ryan was very indignant when he heard what the skinny innkeeper said. He said loudly, "Is there no one in the empire to take care of it?"
The skinny innkeeper glanced at him contemptuously, and said disdainfully: "Do it? Who will do it? How do you do it? The laws of the empire allow each city owner to have absolute control in their own territory, as long as they Don’t rebel. Besides, what if you do too much? Thousands of clinking gold coins can make people shut up. If it doesn’t work, those..."
Speaking of this, the skinny innkeeper's face changed, as if thinking of something, he quickly changed his words and said: "What do you want to use? I have no business here in recent months, so I will give you the best price. Anyway, being idle here is also being idle."
Faras thought for a while and decided to live here. She is not used to living in the wild. Although she spends more money, she is not short of money.
A hearty dinner was quickly placed on the table, but everyone was extremely depressed. Eating a piece of barbecue is almost eating a silver coin of the same weight as him. In this situation, even Faras, who spends money and never blinks, feels pain.
Suffering barely, everyone followed the skinny innkeeper upstairs in the inn. Amid the bragging of the skinny innkeeper, they moved into their own rooms.
Every room has been cleaned just now. Although there is no such thing as the skinny innkeeper boasted in the room, the occupancy is still okay. For this reason, Falasi paid an extra 5 silver coins for each room. hygiene fee.
Ryan and Ellenduo lived together, and looked at the simple room with two beds. The sheets on the bed were very old, but they were still clean. Inside the room there is a table that is missing a leg, a stone padded table and two chairs that seem to have been swayed and can't sit on people at all.
Ryan didn’t feel good about it. For such a room, he would cost 1 gold coin for one night. This is simply a grab. Oh, no, it’s easier than grabbing.
It's still early, and it's impossible to sleep. And the things in Ermida are too expensive, and Ryan and Allendo didn't plan to go shopping. Besides, they were basically slums, and there was nothing to go shopping.
Ellendor took out a few pieces of raw meat from his pocket and fed them to Fenglang. He touched the fur on their bodies and communicated with them. This is what Allendo must do every day.
Lane lay on the bed and watched for a while, feeling bored, put on a piece of clothing, opened the door and walked out.
Ryan walked along the corridor to a place without a roof. Looking at the location here, Ryan estimated that his downstairs was probably the hall where they ate, and it must have been specially set aside by the hotel for the residents to take a walk and rest.
Ryan looked up at the sky, and he found that there was still a sunset on the horizon. But along the way, the sky is always grey, and I thought it was cloudy today.
The setting sun on the horizon is about to set, and the sky is thickly covered by large black clouds.
The setting sun seemed unwilling to fall like this. It changed its colors stubbornly, turning yellow for a while and purple again, as if it wanted the world to prove its existence.
However, the thick dark clouds in the sky ignored them. They gathered together to obscure the setting sun.
The setting sun had no choice but to barely emit its own light through the gaps in the dark clouds.
The ray of sunlight exposed by this fluke shone on the ground, on the roof, and on Ryan's body, but it made people unable to feel the slightest warmth of it.
The setting sun also seemed to know this very well. It did not choose to continue struggling, but slowly fell weakly, letting the dark clouds around it swallow it slowly, and disappeared into the shadow of the sky bit by bit.
Ryan stood there, silently watching the sunset gradually disappear from his eyes, and his shadow was stretched very long by the lucky light of the sunset.
The lonely sunset gradually converges its brilliance, and is about to be submerged in the endless dark clouds.
Suddenly the setting sun condensed into a huge blood-red ball, bursting with dazzling light to the earth, Ryan's eyes suddenly became bright, and his body seemed to suddenly feel warmth!
In the sky, a black crow flapped its wings lonely and uttered a cry of "Yeah, yeah". This cry seemed to have pronounced the death penalty for the setting sun, and the dazzling light of the setting sun weakened weakly. The sunlight on the earth faded slowly like the ebb sea water, dissipating in the boundless darkness.
When the last ray of sunlight disappeared from Ryan, it was dark.
Ryan stood motionless and witnessed it all. Somehow, Ryan suddenly thought of the innkeeper, the thin old man, and he couldn't help sighing.
Faras’s voice came from behind: "Ryan, don’t you need to meditate? Why did you get here?"
Ryan turned around and saw Falasi changed into a purple dress instead of her red magician robe. Falasi who changed her clothes seemed to be a different person, showing a hint of charm.
Ryan couldn't help but take another look.
Faras's face was slightly red, and she asked Ryan, "Ryan, why are you sighing? Do you think of home?"
Ryan shook his head and replied, "No. I remembered what the innkeeper said just now, and I felt very uncomfortable."
Falas said: "Can you talk to me?"
Lane nodded and said, "I have lived with my parents since I was a child. I have never heard of anyone working hard to eat two meals, and I never thought I could see this scene from such a close distance today. "
Falas comforted Ryan and said: "In fact, there are many things like this on this continent. My father racked his brains and can only make it happen in his city."
Ryan scratched his head and asked: "Faras, is your father also a city lord?"
Faras was reluctant to talk about her hunger, she quickly said: "No. Ryan, can you tell me about the tasks you have done?"
Lane said: "If you want to listen, I will speak."
Ryan told Farasi about his experience from the first time he entered the mercenary union when he walked out of his hometown and went to Giethoorn.
Ryan's eloquence is not very good, but his simple language makes it easier to be immersive.
When Faras heard the residents of Anceno cheering for his salvation, her face also showed a happy expression, as if she was the magician who was going to rescue them; when Faras heard that Ryan was being knifed When Scar's gang besieged, there was a nervous look on their faces, their small hands clenched into fists, and they were almost about to cast magic on the non-existent bad guy; when Farras heard the thieves mage Weir read the last one. Music note, completed the powerful magic, and when the righteous knight was about to be destroyed, she finally couldn't help it. She grasped Ryan's hand and said hurriedly: "What about next? Come on, what happened later? ?"
Just then, footsteps came from the corridor.
Faras saw her hand gripping Ryan's hand tightly, her face suddenly turned red, she quickly let go of Ryan's hand, and stood alive.
Ryan was also embarrassed by Faras's behavior. In order to avoid the embarrassment between the two, he walked a few steps in the direction of the corridor, intending to see who came.
Reid's handsome face appeared in Ryan's sight. He was very happy to see Ryan and Farras were here, and said quickly, "Great, I'm looking for you two."
As soon as I said this, Reid saw Farasi's blush on her face, and asked strangely: "Fanny, what's the matter with you? Your face is red? Isn't it uncomfortable?"
Falas waved her hand shyly and said: "It's annoying, I'm sleepy, I go to bed first."
Reid quickly said: "Don't go, this matter is very important, and the three of us must negotiate together."
Falasi hurriedly left without looking back.
Reid felt even more strange when he saw Faras gone. He asked Ryan: "What happened to Faras?"
Ryan was too embarrassed to bring up the matter just now, he concealed and said: "Well, maybe you feel sorry for the gold coins spent today, right?"
Reid scratched his head, feeling even more strange. He lowered his head and muttered to himself: "It makes no sense. Falasi is not the kind of stingy person. Besides, I used to be in the imperial capital, which is more expensive than this dream. I've been to bars."
Ryan left Reid who was talking to himself, and strode away.
Reid murmured for a long time, and then said to Ryan, "Ryan, what you said is wrong, Faras will not take this matter to heart. Could it be something else?"
Reid asked several times, but didn’t hear what Ryan said. He raised his head and saw that Ryan didn’t know where he was going. He shook his head and said, “Why are these two people weird today? Of?"
