Rubik’s Cube of Heavens Chapter 10: Livelihood

The next day, Cowen woke up with a splitting headache.

Half sitting up, he covered his head and groaned for a moment, then took out a bottle of strong wine from his pocket, and drank it all in one gulp.

A moment later, the alcohol hit his head, which not only repressed the refreshing feeling in his body, but also anesthetized the hangover headache.

No wonder some people say that the best way to relieve the aftereffects of a hangover is to drink...

Using a magic spell to clean his whole body, Ke Wen pushed the door to leave the room and went down the stairs.

As soon as he reached the middle of the stairs, several voices rang out, greeting him with warm smiles.

Kewen rubbed his forehead, staggered down the stairs, and walked all the way to the bar at the kitchen door.

After being seated, Ke Wen said to the bar owner who was wiping the wine glass: "Boss, bring me some food and some wine."

"Okay, Mr. Quinn." The bar owner responded with a smile, but then said: "However, sir, the dwarven spirits were sold out last night, and we can only buy them from the 'Stormwind City' in the evening. When the stock comes back, can I give you another one?"

In order to maintain the character design, Ke Wen asked: "Is there still high alcohol?"

"Dwarf mead."

The boss turned around and took a full glass from the barrel with a wooden cup, and pushed the glass with a lot of foam in front of Ke Wen: "You try this, although it is not as good as 'dwarven spirits', but It is also stronger than other wines."

Kewen raised his glass and drank it up in one gulp.

The taste is actually good, the alcohol content is relatively high, but it doesn't burn the throat like 'dwarf spirits', and it has a little sweetness.

Soon, a fiery feeling emanated from the stomach and esophagus. Ke Wen hiccupped and put down the empty glass, pushed it back to the boss and said, "That's it, a few more glasses!"

The boss responded with a smile, took several glasses of honey wine for Ke Wen, and walked out of the bar to the kitchen to arrange meals.

Kewen turned around and glanced at the empty hall, then asked a waitress who happened to come here: "What time is it outside? Is business not good today?"

"My Lady Queen~" the waiter said with an intimate smile, "It's only morning, and people will come to our place for entertainment in the evening."

"Oh..." Ke Wen nodded, and asked again: "Those who drank with me yesterday... who is here?"

"Nata Nali and them?" the waiter reminded.

"That's right, it's them." Ke Wen asked pretending to be amnesiac: "Where did they go? I remember saying yesterday that if I passed out drunk, I would continue to invite everyone to drink today."

The waiter smiled more friendly: "They went out for an adventure. I heard what they said in the morning. It seems that they are going to look around the gold mine and see if they can find the kobold who stole the gold."

Kewen was slightly taken aback, but he reacted instantly.

That's right, it's not a game now, the mines in Elwynn Forest are still under the control of Stormwind City, they haven't been occupied by kobolds like in the game...

Shortly after the food came out, Ke Wen tasted it and said he could barely eat it.

He doesn't like the sour and greasy feeling of cheese, just like he doesn't like the greasy taste of durian.

However, his character was set as a drunkard wandering mage, so he could only suppress his appetite, and randomly ate up the plate of food in front of him.

Next, taking advantage of the fact that there were no customers in the store, Kewen began to inquire about news from the hotel owner on the second floor and the bar owner on the first floor.

He didn't ask any sensitive questions, he just asked some gossip news, and then mixed some issues about the situation in the kingdom.

At noon, the shop began to have customers.

The boss was busy entertaining guests, so Ke Wen went upstairs to the guest room.

Sitting by the window and looking out at the small town, Ke Wen sorted out all the information in his mind.

Through communication, we learned that there has been no orc invasion incident with the opening of the "Dark Gate", and the kingdom is peaceful.

The biggest news I got from the shop owners was that the king had set up an outpost again to garrison troops.

Kewen wants to find out if the 'Dark Portal' has been established, but this is the real world. The area where the Dark Portal is located has not yet been called the 'Cursed Land'.

Furthermore, the huge 'Dark Portal' was only established after the orcs invaded, and now nothing can be seen in the past.

As a result, Ke Wen also gave up his idea. Anyway, it has nothing to do with him, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't confirm the time...

When it was almost dinner time, the carriage sent by the bar owner to Stormwind City for replenishment returned.

Fore and aft, the team of adventurers who fought with Ke Wen last night also seemed to be stepping on their meal, and returned to the "Pride of the Lion King".

A group of adventurers who had returned after a long journey found Kewen as soon as they entered the hotel lobby.

Last night, the burly man sitting on Kewen's right immediately burst into joy, and said loudly while waving his hands: "Hey! Your Majesty Queen, how did you sleep last night?"

A chuckle resounded from the hall. In the almost full hall, there were still those old faces from yesterday. They obviously wanted to come and see if Ke Wen could fulfill his promise, and he still treated everyone today.

At this time, Ke Wen heard the greeting and couldn't help but turn around at the bar.

After seeing the adventurer team, he responded with a smile: "It's you, yes, you..."

Ke Wen stared at the strong man, he still didn't know the name of the man.

"Tager." The brawny man patted his chest and smiled.

"What about Tagle?" Ke Wen asked with a nod.

"It's Tager." The strong man didn't feel embarrassed at all: "I'm a commoner, and I don't have a family name."

"Really?" Ke Wen was a little surprised, looked at the other party and smiled: "Then you are really amazing, you can have such strength from a commoner background."

"Hey..." Tager smiled foolishly.

At this time, the adventurer team also came to the long table near the bar and sat down one after another.

Seeing this, Ke Wen took out two gold coins from his pocket, pushed them from the bar counter to the bar owner, raised his voice slightly and said with a smile: "Fulfill yesterday's promise, I will invite everyone to party tonight."

"Respect Your Majesty the Queen—"

Some townspeople immediately toasted and cheered, and then there was a big response, and the diners who had been waiting for a long time raised their glasses and cheered.

Kewen toasted everyone with a cup, then sat down at the dining table of the adventurer team, and said with a smile: "What are you talking about? Can I listen?"

"Of course!" The man named Galken Garland nodded with a smile: "We are talking about livelihood."

Speaking, Galken reached into his pocket, took out a small handful of 'golden beans' and put them on the dining table, and there was a sound of 'cracking'.

There are about twenty golden beans, each about the size of a small fingernail.

There was some helplessness in Galken's smile, and he raised his chin to Jindouzi: "Look, Your Majesty Queen, this is what we have gained today."

Kewen waved his hand, shook his head with a smile: "Call me Kewen, yesterday was a joke."

"Haha, okay Kewen."

Karken responded with a smile, and the other four also laughed.

Ke Wen stretched out his hand to gather the golden beans together, and then asked, "Is this obtained from the 'kobold'?"

"That's right." Galken responded: "The kingdom will not confiscate the gold stolen from the gold mine by the kobolds. This is a way of life for adventurers like us."

Kewen nodded: "It's good for everyone. If you get rich, the kingdom can also eliminate the hidden danger of kobolds."

"That's right, that's right." Galken nodded.

"Then these..." Ke Wen fiddled with the golden beans: "How much can these be exchanged for?"

Nata Nali stretched out her hand, and divided the golden beans into five parts. After distributing a few grains in front of each teammate, she shrugged and said, "It's about four gold coins."

Amid Ke Wen's nod, the other four began to snap their fingers in unison.

Ke Wen was surprised, and couldn't help saying: "Who are you?"

Nata Nali rolled her eyes and scolded helplessly: "Stop showing your shameful minds, eighty silver coins each!"

The other four suddenly realized, and then laughed foolishly.

Kewen finally held back his laughter, and immediately changed the subject after coughing dryly: "In this case, your daily income is not bad."

"What can it be..." Natalie sighed: "This money, after deducting the cost of maintaining weapons and daily replenishment costs, there is not much money left."

"Hey..." Tager smiled at Ke Wen: "I should have a lot left today. My shield didn't wear much in today's battle. When I sent it to the blacksmith for maintenance, the blacksmith told me so Mine."

The other four people gave a 'bah' almost at the same time, and Galken had a sad face: "My long sword is about to be scrapped, and the money I saved is not enough to buy a new one, hey..."

Nata Nali spread her hands: "Me too, you know, the daggers of the three of us are the fastest-worn."

The other two thin men nodded at the same time in agreement.

Galken scratched his head, and then said: "I think we should do something big."

"What are you doing?" Tager asked in a naive voice ~IndoMTL.com~ murloc chant. Galken stretched out his hand and pointed to the west: "The murlocs in the western fertile field." "

Hearing this, the others all became hesitant. After thinking about it, the two men who were still not qualified for the name shook their heads one after another.

One of the men said: "I'm sorry, Galken, if we want to fight the murlocs over there, the two of us will not participate."

Another man nodded in agreement: "That's right, with the strength of the five of us, we can't defeat any mermaid tribe at all. If we only kill the periphery, we won't make much money at all."

Galken's smile was a bit forced, he sighed and shook his head: "It's okay, I'll just say that."

The atmosphere was a bit stiff, the two men looked at each other, as if they were embarrassed to stay any longer, they got up to say goodbye, and walked to other tables...
