Chapter 917: Home in the New World
Early in the morning, Gordon sat up from the bed, scratching his hair.
He was half drunk at the welcome party last night.
After the party, he and Hayata were led by the seniors of the investigation team to this hunter's cabin that would belong to them from now on, which was considered to be a foothold in the New World.
For various reasons, Gordon, who was very excited, made an excuse of "I can't sleep in the new bed" and pulled Hayata to sleep until the second half of the night.
Even so, the habit he had developed over the years still made him get up very early.
Looking at his girlfriend who was still sleeping next to him, or his wife? Gordon rubbed his hands with some ideas, and smiled and moved over.
Then he was kicked away by Hayata, who was half asleep and half awake. After mumbling a dream that no one could understand, he rolled himself tightly with the quilt and continued to sleep.
"."
Gordon, who had hit a snag, had no idea where to start, so he had to get out of bed, dress, wash, carry the big sword, and go to the balcony to prepare for morning exercises.
"Hiss--ha!"
Take a deep breath, the air in the new world is incredibly fresh.
The waterfall is flowing just a few dozen meters away, and the diffused water mist makes the air on the balcony wet. There is even a sapling in the gap between the wooden floors.
Putting down the sword for the time being, Gordon looked into the distance.
It must be said that the view of the hut assigned to them by the investigation team is really good.
The hut is located at the top of the residential area and is built around a lush giant tree growing from the rock wall.
The builder is really thoughtful. While using the giant tree as the support of the house, the lush branches and leaves have also become the most distinctive furniture and embellishment in the house.
It's just that you need to sweep the leaves when cleaning, which is a little troublesome.
Looking back at Hayata who was still curled up in bed and snoring, Gordon suddenly felt a sense of "home".
Waving the sword again and again, Gordon finished today's morning exercise. He lowered his head and stepped on the wooden floor of the balcony, with a slightly dissatisfied look.
This floor is solid, for ordinary people, but if I swing my sword here every day for morning exercise, I'm afraid it will break in less than two months.
Since it's my home, I have to be more careful. Gordon plans to go back and find some materials such as wood and iron bars to reinforce this balcony.
There are many places in the house that need to be renovated. On the one hand, it's inconvenient to have too few furniture, and waterproof measures must be taken around the giant tree that passes through the house.
Otherwise, the house will leak when it rains.
Hayata also got up at this time, rubbing her eyes and seemed a little confused. She staggered to the balcony and hugged Gordon from behind.
"Is the morning exercise over?"
Gordon's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a surge of blood. "Hehe, it's over, so now."
"Now it's my turn."
Hayata pushed Gordon back to the room, holding the sword, and began to do Suzhen training on the balcony.
"."
During the time when Hayata was doing morning exercises, Gordon walked around the new home.
Touching here and there, thinking about what furniture and decorations he would need to buy in the future.
He remembered the words of Mr. Mecca, the dragon hunter, very clearly - the New World is full of dangers and the conditions are difficult, so mentality and sense of ritual are very important.
Isn't it the best way to decorate your own hut to be warm and comfortable?
When Hayata finished her morning exercises, wiped her sweat, and returned to the house refreshed, she found Gordon squatting in front of the big tree that was integrated with the house and picking the bark.
She asked speechlessly: "What are you doing? Why haven't you taken a shower yet?"
This hut has an independent bathroom, and the sink draws water from the waterfall from a distance, so you can take a shower at any time without fetching water, which is very convenient.
Gordon, who was thinking about questions like "maybe I can put a lounge chair under the tree canopy", turned around and looked at Hayata with red cheeks and crystal sweat beads on the ends of her forehead, and fell into deep thought.
"I feel that washing together saves water resources."
"??!"
It was already nine o'clock when we really left the cabin.
Looking at the rising sun, Hayata glared at Gordon fiercely.
Gordon laughed.
The commander-in-chief said at the dinner yesterday that these three days are for everyone to relieve the fatigue of ocean voyage and get familiar with the Star Base. No tasks will be assigned to the new members of the special investigation team.
Everyone can move freely.
So Gordon and Hayata did not wear protective gear, but wore the kind of casual clothes issued by the investigation team, which were between daily clothes and light leather armor.
Gordon liked this kind of casual clothes very much. It was stronger than daily clothes and lighter than armor and protective gear. There were many pockets and buckles on it, and it was widely used.
What surprised him most was that the size of the casual clothes issued to him was large enough and did not need to be modified.
You know, a large part of the reason why he only wore protective gear on a daily basis was because he could not buy daily clothes of large enough size with his size, and he got used to it later.
Following the stairs and plank roads between the platforms, the two walked towards the open-air restaurant "Yanmao Pavilion".
After morning exercise, I felt a little hungry. Although there was still some time before lunch, it wouldn't be a bad idea to have breakfast first.
The cabin had everything except a kitchen and stove.
In fact, it was not just their cabin, but almost all the members of the investigation team did not have a stove in their residences.
After all, the buildings in the Star Base are mainly wooden houses, stacked on top of each other, with a compact and complex structure. If a fire occurs, it will be no joke.
"Hey! Hey! Over here!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Gordon Hayata walked over. The person who greeted them was Gale.
In addition to her, there were two people at the table.
Gale's little apprentice, Xixi, and the former poster girl Heta, who gave up the stable job at the guild headquarters and came to the New World alone to explore the new world.
Hmm.
This is a table that Anxier would definitely avoid when he saw it.
"You got up so late~?" Gale winked at the two of them, implying something.
Gordon and the others chose to ignore it and went to buy two large portions of stew and bread and ate slowly.
In addition to potatoes as the main ingredient, the hot stew also added a lot of mushrooms and clam meat, which is very delicious and easy to digest.
With slightly dry and hard bread, it is satisfying.
"By the way, do you live together?" Gordon asked as he dipped bread into the soup.
"Yes, the houses here are not rich enough for everyone to have a room. Most of them are shared by two or three people."
Gail said, pushing away the cleaned plate, crossing his arms and looking a little angry, "But there are exceptions. A rich man has a single room, and it's a super luxurious one!"
Gordon looked up, "Ah? Are you talking about Anshil?"
Gail glanced at Gordon, "As a brother who wears the same pants as him, don't you know?
Damn, he came to the New World, and he's still a rich man!"
Gordon grinned, he knew about this.
After confirming the itinerary for the New World, the Sterling Chamber of Commerce provided a large amount of supplies to the investigation team and proposed a proposal to further develop trade between the New and Old Worlds.
A large part of the benefits will fall on Anshil.
Therefore, although they did not carry much cash when traveling, there was a rather astonishing amount in the accounts of the investigation team and the Sterling Chamber of Commerce.
All his expenses in the New World can be deducted from it, and the class leader of the material class calls him a brother when he sees him.
This looks like the love of Jessica, the head of the Sterling Chamber of Commerce, for her younger brother Anxiel, but in fact, the Chamber of Commerce is by no means without benefits.
Knowing that the number of the fifth group will double again in a few years, Jessica is very sure that with the rapid development of the New World forces, trade between the New and Old Worlds is bound to rise.
As the first commercial force to enter the market and pave the way, although there is not much feedback at present, and even money has to be lost, the future benefits will be amazing.
In Jessica's view, it is really great that Anxiel can make the decision to "join the New World Investigation Team for the Chamber of Commerce".
