Chapter 71: , Tannery – Delivery and Consultation

Zhao Ji turned the marinated leg of lamb, letting the campfire evenly roast the leg of lamb that was gradually emitting fragrance. This thing was bought by Zhao Ji from the Table Corner Tavern in advance as a supper. Zhao Ji felt that after earning money, he still had to reward himself a little, especially in the case of such a big harvest tonight, eating dry food was considered a pity to his body.

The bread bought from the bakery was far inferior to the roast leg of lamb. Zhao Ji had long forgotten the bread.

After the leg of lamb was roasted dry and no longer dripping fat, Zhao Ji felt that the meat was fully cooked and ready to eat. It's not that Zhao Ji doesn't want to eat tender meat, but that in this wild place, he doesn't dare to eat anything that isn't fully cooked.

After one bite, apart from being dry, the fresh aroma of the marinated mutton rushed straight to the forehead. Zhao Ji has been in this world for a long time, and he hasn't eaten such delicious food for a while.

Regardless of the hot roasted leg of lamb, Zhao Ji devoured the meat with his mouth.

It wasn't until Zhao Ji finished eating the whole leg of lamb that Zhao Ji lay down on the bedding contentedly. Throw the bone of leg of lamb into the campfire and dispose of it. Putting his hands behind his head, he looked contentedly at the night sky.

-----------------------------------

In the morning, Zhao Ji was awakened by the singing of birds in the woods. Without the crowing of the domestic poultry of the city residents, Zhao Ji really couldn't feel the morning.

Birds sang back and forth between the woods and the fields to the east, occasionally diving headfirst into the swamp to catch insects floating on the swamp water.

Zhao Ji patted his head. Last night he fell asleep after eating the roast leg of lamb. The half-digested meat made his stomach feel uncomfortable when he got up early. After rubbing his stomach, Zhao Ji packed up his things and went back to the city.

Every autumn, for farmers, every day is a time when manpower is needed. Drive away the birds that steal food, warn others who trespass in the wheat fields, and pay attention to the weather changes every day. Makes every farmer tense everywhere. After all the grain in the field has been harvested and dried, the family can relax and participate in the Harvest Festival, which is just in time.

Come to the gate of the city. Zhao Ji lined up in the sparse queue to enter the city, and the guards at the gate of the city only let the people entering the city pass when there were fewer farmers working outside the city.

The guards saw Zhao Ji passing by, and they excitedly congratulated Zhao Ji on his hunting results. Zhao Ji accepted their blessings with a smile.

When he came to the leather shop waiting for his harvest, the Punika craftsman patted Zhao Ji on the shoulder vigorously, congratulating him on his hunting. And arrange for the apprentices to take out the slime monsters in the big bag one by one. The Punica craftsman whispered to Zhao Ji: "Master Lian Xiude told you about him?"

Zhao Ji nodded, saying that he already knew that Master Lian Xiude needed acid, and possibly, let him capture live slime monsters.

"Would it work? Capture the slime," Punica Tinkerer asked.

"There is no problem in terms of strength, but I need a batch of strong clay pots, and a thicker wooden barrel with a lid is fine. I need these things to capture and contain slime monsters. And this thing can't be done by me alone, I need someone to help Just do it."

The Punica craftsman waved his hand and said: "Manpower is not a problem, wooden barrels or clay pots can also be done, as long as these things are enough? Those who help don't need to participate in hunting, right?"

Smiling, the Punica craftsman said: "I am actually Master Lian Xiude from a family. Our family has been proficient in various craftsmanship for generations. I am a younger member of the family."

Oh, so that's the case, Zhao Ji thought to himself. "As long as three or four people help me and bring enough thick wooden barrels and clay pots, I can catch the slime monsters you want in one night. Of course, I can complete the work of catching them in the swamp by myself. But during the day when the slime monsters can’t come out, there must be some preparatory work for them to go to the swamp with me to complete.” Zhao Ji was also very envious of the deal of one silver coin for each slime monster. It would be even better if the families of the artisans of Punica and Master Leanshod could provide the manpower and equipment for the capture project.

Craftsman Punica patted Zhao Ji on the shoulder again, nodded and said: "In this case, you have to allow me to prepare for a while, and I will tell you when I have prepared the manpower and equipment needed for hunting. There is no time what effect?"

Zhao Ji thought about it and said: "As long as you don't wait until the weather turns cold and enters winter, I guess in winter, the slime monsters will get into the mud for the winter. If you want to catch them again, you have to wait until next year. I'm waiting here." Come on, can't Master Lian Xiude wait?"

The Punica craftsman laughed, "It won't take that long, why would it take so long to prepare."

After finishing speaking, Artisan Punika went to check Zhao Ji's slime monster from last night.

The apprentices filled the floor of the workshop with the corpses of slime monsters wrapped in leaves, big and small. The Punika craftsman was surprised when he saw it. He didn't expect Zhao Ji to hunt so many slime monsters in one night. He roughly counted them, and there were as many as one hundred and twenty!

What did Keir grow up to be so powerful, is it difficult to say that he is a foreigner with similar strength to the knights?

Zhao Ji found an empty bucket in the leather shop and sat against the wall. He was actually a little sleepy, but he couldn't walk away when handing over the body of the slime monster. After all, it was related to his main income.

Squinting his eyes, Zhao Ji took out the bread he bought yesterday while thinking about how to arrange for people to capture the slime monster. Break the dry and hard bread into small pieces with your hands, put it in your mouth and eat it.

The number of slime monsters today is more than half that of the previous round. Fortunately, in the workshop~www.mtlnovel.com~Punika craftsmen have enough apprentice helpers, and it took two hours to make these slime monsters Check out the small slime monster and deal with it briefly.

In this batch of slime monsters, there is no strange slime monster like last time. Punika craftsman just lamented that Zhao Ji did not have the good luck last time, but Zhao Ji himself guessed that this may be related to his lack of depth in hunting this time. deep in the swamp.

After all, in this hunting, the biggest difference between the two hunting locations is that the previous hunting went deep into the center of the swamp, and saw the strange and strange glowing plants. But this time the hunting did not go deep, but it greatly expanded the number of hunting grounds --- the number of small swampy islands.

The Punika craftsman also discovered this time that the skins of the slime monsters hunted by Zhao Ji were much better than last time. This produced more envelopes, and he found more well-preserved slime acid sacs.

He asked what Keir's improvement had to do with this time. Zhao Ji patted his spear carelessly, saying that the new weapon was much easier to use than the one he made before, and many slime monsters were pierced by him without resistance.

Craftsman Punica nodded knowingly: "A good weapon is indeed the most important partner of a warrior."

After confirming the harvest of this hunting, the Punika craftsman first gave Zhao Ji two silver coins as a reward. The two silver coins were for the fact that he had found the intact acid sacs of ten slime monsters, and paid for Kiel with his own money instead of Master Leanshod. And yesterday, the craftsmen of Punica had already produced the first batch of coatings and handed them over to the Foxtail Chamber of Commerce. When Zhao Ji returned to the Foxtail Merchant, he could ask the old president of Foxtail to get the money for the first batch of coated goods.

After hearing the good news, Zhao Ji immediately returned to the Foxtail Chamber of Commerce with his equipment on his back.
