The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 54: Earn money to support your family, players!


Hearing this question, Salvatore's expression was a little subtle.

"How should I put it...well, at least your guards are quite capable..."

Seeing that Salvatore was hesitant, Annan suddenly felt uneasy.

Those huskies, aren’t they starting to tear down their homes too?

When you went out to demolish other people’s homes, was your own home also demolished?

Ha kind of cycle?

He couldn't help but ask: "What happened? Or did they get into some trouble?"

"No, that's not the case. They are even helping others throughout the city, and now the entire Frozen Water Port knows that their new lord has arrived."

Speaking of this, Salvatore added: "Of course, they did their job very well. They did not give up their guard work and even helped patrol the city.

"And they are very loyal to you. Even if you asked some people to go to Roseburg to cause sabotage before, such a dangerous mission did not make the guards who stayed in the city feel dissatisfied with you. They even I want to go to Roseburg to help, 'because the mission there is more important' - yes, that's what they told me.

Salvatore recalled the actions of the players, as if he was no longer sleepy, and his whole body became obviously energetic: "I don't know where you found such a good and strange guard... … During the two days when you entered the nightmare, many people came to see you every day.

"I can see that they are definitely not saying good things about you, nor are they just trying to show off, or are they flattering you for the sake of wealth and power. They want you from the bottom of their hearts. I can give them more dangerous tasks, and I sincerely hope that you will be safe and sound."

…Yes, I know.

Because they definitely want more fun and exciting tasks. They must also be very concerned about the safety of their only current camp leader...

Annan responded with silence, unable even to explain to Salvatore.

They don’t love me at all, they just covet the favorability points I send them!

"In that case," Annan was a little confused, "Why did you look so troubled just now?"

"Because they... are a little too diligent. They are quite diligent and very friendly to the townspeople."

When the young wizard with a sleepy face talked about this issue, he became energetic and kept talking: "Let me tell you, some of them even plan to go to work! And they are not guards or teachers. Works such as swordsmanship, but work such as pruning flowers and branches, even sweeping floors, and guarding tombs!

"Some people even went to the militia group to ask for sword skills. At that time, the militia group thought they were here to cause trouble, and there was chaos... Later I found out that they really came to ask for sword skills. But your guards are all so good at swordsmanship. Excellent, obviously all of them have studied military swordsmanship for at least five years. As a result, the militiamen were beaten very miserably.

"The other townspeople were scared to death at first. They thought you were trying to seize their property or take away their jobs, so they sent guards to blackmail... Some even wanted to They had to give them money, and there were almost fights in some places. It was me who went over to mediate and explained the matter clearly, and finally calmed them down.

"I asked your guards why you did this. Then they said... They left their homes and came here to make more money - until I told them, you will pay them Only then did some people give up the idea of ​​finding a job and stay around the house peacefully."

Salvatore said with a strange expression: "They also said... they must earn more money, because 'there may be somewhere to spend money at any time.' But I have been here for several years and I don't know. Where can I spend money in this frozen water port..."

"That's it..."

Annan was silent for a moment, then murmured in response.

Wait, do I still have to pay them wages?

You bastard, don’t remind them...and don’t remind me about this! These players didn't even realize that they had wages to draw!

Annan was very sad.

Players are used to being exploited. This game is conscientious enough just because it does not require krypton gold and is permanently free. They don’t even dare to think that they can still pay wages...

I hope they didn't believe Salvatore's words...

Just as Annan thought, the messy-haired Salvatore continued:

“But even after knowing this, many of them still decided to go out to find jobs, some even planned to go hunting in the mountains, and some wanted to join the fleet to fish.

"They even want me to keep it a secret from you - but if you think about it, I will never keep such a big thing a secret from you. After all, they are your guards, how can those people pay them? If they What should you do if you are tired or injured? What if they misbehave in your name? What if they lie to others in your name?"

Salvatore had a complicated expression and looked at Annan with subtle eyes: "It's true that nothing happened now, but I still have to tell you about it. From their skin and face, they should be from different backgrounds. Not bad? Why are all of them..."

...Are you so poor?

Although Salvatore did not say anything in the second half, Annan already knew what he wanted to say.

This is normal. It is still very common for players to start farming for economic purposes. Especially when the other half of the players are performing dangerous infiltration and assassination missions, the half they stay in the city will naturally take the initiative to help with logistical issues.

For example... make money.

But Annan breathed a sigh of relief.

The problem is not big. As long as the players don't break up their homes, it's all a good thing.

It’s normal to look for tasks everywhere, and it’s also normal to try out whether you can change your career or learn new skills. It's more normal to want to work and earn money... They don't steal, but know how to work. Annan is even very pleased.

But, what about salary...

Annan was very troubled by this issue.

Because he really has no money now.

It doesn’t cost money, it costs a life.

Fortunately, he was on the safe side and laid the groundwork with the players on the main quest ~IndoMTL.com~ sold out miserably.

Annan is now seriously thinking about whether to have a showdown with the players.

Just say that I have no money now and no money to pay my salary. Then when the salary is paid every month, the favor will be paid directly.

... Alternatively, you can also let the players earn money for you, and you can pay them a small amount of goodwill every month. At least let's make a transition during the closed beta period... As a nobleman without a penny, there may be big trouble.

But this seems a bit like a group of licking dogs, handing over funds on time... It sounds very cruel, but if you think about it carefully, it makes sense——

Anyway, Annan's favor is equivalent to binding points, so isn't this equivalent to a monthly card?

Have you never seen a monthly card? !

Is it abnormal to have fixed krypton gold every month? !

And this isn’t money, it’s just a matter of time... What’s wrong!

The more Annan thought about it, the more righteous he felt. He quickly convinced himself.

This is a happy decision, just let the players come back on time to pay their wages. Anyway, both of his identities are nobles, and he also knows Priest Luis and Salvatore, a wizard who seems to have a lot of status.

Whatever you want to buy, the price and quality here in Annan are definitely much better than if you buy it yourself.

This price difference can also be used as a gold point to regain favor.

Well, the background will be adjusted when the time comes.

Then you can tell them openly, I am very cute, please give me money——

"Oh yes, one more thing."

Salvatore suddenly said: "Your guards did not know where they received the information...

"It is said that the people you sent to Roseburg discovered a major incident that must be reported directly to you."
