My Magical Card Tavern

Chapter 65 Unlocking the Treasure Chest Cash Register

"To be honest, I never realized you two had such abilities before."

"I'm eating sunflower seeds," Gianna said.

"If anyone insists on playing cards with me next time, intending to beat me up, I'll find a way to call you two over to play with me."

"I don't need you to do anything else. You two just need to discuss things on the sidelines. That will definitely make my opponent's mentality unstable."

"If you encounter someone with a bad temper, it's not impossible for them to have a mental breakdown on the spot."

Luke frowned, remembering who Ginell had mentioned as having a bad temper.

"Him."

"That's true, if someone is criticizing him, he really can't control his temper."

Silver Star also remembered who that person was and nodded in agreement with Luke's statement.

That drinking buddy did have a bad temper, and because he wanted to control it, he rarely came to the pub to relax.

According to that person, if he had drunk a couple more drinks when he arrived, or if he had been suppressed while playing cards, he might have lost his temper on the spot.

If he caused a disturbance in the tavern, he would have to find a way to compensate Ginnell, which would be quite troublesome.

Ginnell rubbed his chin:

Compensation.

This incident did remind him.

"You guys keep chatting, I'm going to find something."

Ginnell went upstairs to her room, sat down, and took out the card case to examine it carefully.

The issue of cashiering has always been a missing piece in taverns.

The first half of the business hours was fine, since everyone who came was a real person, and if you just paid directly, it would just be a matter of Gianna lending a little more money.

But the second half was a bit more troublesome.

For example, now that he is in the Dark Forest of the Northern Union, the old man Silver Star, as the host, can tell Ginnell about some of the specialties of the Dark Forest as payment for drinks.

If Ginell were to stay in the Dark Forest for a while longer, he was certain that the old man's status among the drinkers would rise considerably.

He's rich and generous; you can tell at a glance that he's the kind of shrew who can generously say he'll pay for everything.

In other words, before Ginell arrived in Mirkwood, the main profit of the second half of the business, according to the classification, was knowledge, not money.

However, after casually mentioning that grumpy friend, Gianna found a solution in the card box.

The tavern's cash register

Price: Fifty Gold Coins

[Effect: Collects money during the tavern's operating hours; any form of presence can be priced and deducted from all tavern purchases.]

[Note: If it is during the second half of the business hours, customers can mark the items in advance, and then the items can be added to the bill.]

[WARNING: This function only allows for bill calculation and payment. If the payment rules are violated, the cash register will be permanently unusable.]

Fifty gold coins?

Ginnell was about to say, "Why don't you just rob me?" but after seeing the description of the cash register's performance, he immediately swallowed his words.

It's yet another functional item at the conceptual level!

If it's just for collecting money, Gianna thought it would be better to do it herself and save the money.

But it would be different if this thing could calculate a reasonable price for all the items used to offset the cost of the drinks.

The old man's super-effective meditation, Luke's combat knowledge, and so on, can all be calculated to have a reasonable price.

This thing can be used to collect money, but its actual function is not limited to collecting money!

For example, if during the first half of the day, someone tries to use something that Gianna can't identify as payment for drinks, or it could simply be that someone is planning to target him.

Just toss it into the cash register; it's far more effective than any magic appraisal or alchemy workshop master certification.

Back then, he had to pick and choose which skeleton monster to kill by hand, which took him a long time. If he had had a cash register back then, he wouldn't have had to go through all that trouble.

"Great stuff, great stuff."

Ginnell promptly exchanged the gold coins, which vanished instantly from the Mage Guild.

Ginnell counted the remaining gold coins. Besides the thirty-one gold coins from the Mage Guild, there were also some loose change he had collected from renting cards.

But these cannot be touched for the time being.

Having a cash register means having a complete pricing system.

After all, not all guests are as wealthy as Maureen and Dura, and they can't possibly give away all the money they have left as tips. Therefore, Ginnell needs to keep some money for making change.

As for the guest room that can be exchanged for ten gold coins...

Can the old men use that thing?

Ginnell quickly dismissed the thought and focused her attention on the cash register she had just redeemed.

It was a very ordinary treasure chest, with a semi-oval top, a rectangular body, and wooden iron hoops. A golden gem was inlaid on the front of the chest and on the top of the lid.

Ginnell looked left and right, wondering if there was an upgraded version of the treasure chest, such as the iron hoop being upgraded to a gold hoop inlaid with jewels.

Maybe even the material of the box can change.

Take it down and try it.

Ginnell took the treasure chest down, and the new contents immediately caught the attention of Luke and Silver Star.

"The cash register looks like a treasure chest."

Silver Star poked the box with her staff.

"Little Ginnell, Luke and I don't have anything we can use as money."

"Ginnell reminded me."

"Old man, just put the method of super-effective meditation in there. All you have to do is put your hand on the cash register."

,

Yin Xing looked troubled.

"Put it in?"

""

"How should I put this? The meditation techniques I taught you are..."

'

Ok?

Yin Xing's expression shifted, and as she moved her hand away, a silver light slowly condensed in her palm, forming a card.

[Five-Star Magic Card: Super Meditation]

[Quality: Purple Epic]

[Description: Excellent meditation techniques can maximize the efficiency of meditation]

[Effect: After use, grants an additional two-star magic power in the next turn. Limited to a single turn only.]

Genele was taken aback.

This can be turned into a card?

It might be effective when playing cards, but can it be used in other situations?

Before Genele could figure out the problem, Luke also put his hand on it, and then took it away thoughtfully.

"It seems to be a magic inscribed on a specific item."

"I've seen similar magic in the tribe; it can be activated with energy crystals or with battle aura."

"However, the toys in the tribe are small toys that the tribesmen buy as gifts for their children. They are alchemical and engineering items made by goblin engineers, and they are not the same type as the complex magic on the treasure chest."

,

Luke plans to mark some small details about the tribe when he gets back.

The monetary value is secondary; the main thing is to see if the magic on this treasure chest really works as described, bringing the marked items over for accounting purposes.

Silver Star looked at the card in his hand. The card depicted a young man in a cloak meditating with his eyes closed.

She doesn't look like Ginnell at all.
