Chapter 351: Raising Money
The Adventurer Guild in Sword City is more like a large tavern. Adventurer teams take on missions here while recruiting members.
And many scattered adventurers are drinking and waiting for recruitment, while chatting about random things.
Li Changhe, He Feng and others sat around a wine table. Several of them were of high level, and they could hear the adventurers talking. Get information from them.
For example, a team at the next table complained that they originally had an elf magician and an elf ranger in their team, both of whom were among the best in the team.
Unfortunately, with the collective departure of the elves, their team's combat power was lost, and the team's strength was greatly reduced. They didn't even dare to accept missions casually.
"It's been a month, and I don't know what happened to that guy." Someone lamented: "He didn't even send a letter back."
"It seems that there was an accident in their hometown, and even the humans working there were repatriated." A one-eyed strong man said: "I guess there was a problem within the elves."
"It's hard to imagine that they would have any disputes within their temperament." Someone complained: "Their fertility rate is extremely low, so they especially cherish their own kind."
"Who knows? They are now strictly prohibiting outsiders from approaching, and all ships to the elf continent have stopped operating." The strong man said: "Alas, I finally got close to them."
"Hahahaha, Captain, you finally said it, you have to think carefully. They are your great-grandmothers." Someone laughed and said.
"Get lost, I mean as a teammate." The one-eyed strong man laughed and scolded, and then said: "But don't be too anxious. According to gossip, with the abnormal behavior of the elves, many teams have similar situations. Therefore, the guild plans to send an investigation team to investigate. It should be this month."
Li Changhe nodded silently, and finally heard a useful information.
However, the investigation team should be impatient. The Adventurer's Guild still has to slowly raise a team. I have to add fuel to the fire.
On the other side, Wang He and others took the giant wolf's head to collect the reward. And ordered a rather sumptuous meal.
Judging from the slightly surprised eyes of the adventurers at the next few tables, the price of this table will not be too low.
In fact, it is easy to understand. First, they want to repay the life-saving grace.
Second, they regard Li Changhe and others as high-level adventurers. And it is not less beneficial to have a good relationship with high-level adventurers.
If you give a few tips on combat skills, it will be a huge gain, not to mention other aspects.
For example, the ranger has always wanted to talk to Li Changhe about archery, but Li Changhe can't teach anyone.
He shot accurately simply because the distance was close enough and he had calculated the movement route of the giant wolf.
Even if Li Changhe does not use the Eagle Eye Demon Eye now, he can quickly calculate the opponent's movement trajectory. This is the advantage of experience.
The giant wolf is dangerous to Wang He, but facing Li Changhe, it probably can't even break the defense. It's not difficult to calculate its route.
As for archery skills, Li Changhe didn't master anything. He just shot accurately.
He didn't master archery skills such as continuous arrows or multiple arrows. What else can he teach? If it's about working, Li Changhe might be able to teach some time planning skills.
So, he could only give the ranger a suggestion of "practice makes perfect". There is no such allusion in this world, but the ranger nodded thoughtfully.
On the surface, Wang He chatted about nothing, while the players discussed it in [Friends].
"What plan are you talking about? I went to find out that this city does have ships that can go out to the sea. But the price is very expensive. We don't have enough gold bars." Chen Yu said: "You can't make enough money in two days, right? Even if you are a working emperor, you can't do it."
Chen Yu just contacted some guild receptionists and learned from them the price of ships and the purchasing power of currency in this world.
Chen Yu's ability is mind code, which is especially useful when contacting those strangers.
During this period, since all the ships heading to the Elf Continent were docked on the shore, there were many people selling ships. But there was a big problem with funds.
She and Jiangshan both brought a box of gold bars, which was used as funds for the mission.
In many worlds, gold is a hard currency.
But in this world, gold is not too precious and its purchasing power is not high.
After all, with the existence of magic, those so-called mithril or gold essence are useful.
Moreover, those ships have been processed by some magic and are ridiculously expensive.
At this time, there is a shortage of money.
In fact, if there is enough time, Li Changhe and others can take some unused [equipment] to the auction house to sell. There is magic in this world, and there are also magic props.
The equipment will not attract too much attention from the plot forces.
But there is no time. The auction house here will open in half a month.
So, there are two choices now. Either turn into a villain, rob a ship and run away. The price is that you may be hunted down by the plot forces, which will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. Moreover, the ships that can cross the ocean are all large ships, and five people alone may not be able to control them. This won't work.
The second point is to work hard to make money. Fill the funding gap. Buy a ship and a group of experienced sailors and captains.
But the funding gap is huge, and Chen Yu believes that no matter how much Li Changhe works, he can't fill the gap in a few days.
"The gold we brought can only be counted as 20 gold essences. A fully equipped ship needs at least 100, not counting the sailors. It is estimated that the whole set will cost about 110." Chen Yu said: "How to fill this gap?"
"This is the Adventurer's Guild, and each of us wants to be an adventurer at the gold or even platinum level." Li Changhe replied.
"I know, but outsiders like us need to spend some time preparing information to become adventurers." Chen Yu said: "Give me a day."
Becoming an adventurer and raising funds through mission rewards is indeed a way. But I am afraid that time will not be enough.
You know that it takes three days and two nights to go to the Elf Continent, and now it has been seven hours. Time is not on their side.
"Huh, I can tell at a glance that you have never worked. Have you heard of substitutes?" Li Changhe smiled.
Then, he looked at Wang He who was about to talk to him and said, "Do you want to upgrade your Dawn Hammer level?"
Wang He was stunned, and nodded subconsciously and said, "Of course, this is the ultimate dream of every adventurer."
The higher the level, the better the treatment.
Many silver and gold-level adventurer teams are even funded by nobles.
What's more, they have directly become the secret trump cards of certain countries.
Who doesn't want to upgrade their level?
"Coincidentally, we just need a lot of money, but we can't reveal our identities." He Feng said, "You also know that adventurers of our level often have to perform secret missions."
"You mean"
