Chapter Seventy-Nine: Overlord's Meal
The cacophony of squabbles from the hall of the restaurant interrupted Sean's thoughts.
"Sir, there are thirty-seven coppers in all, which of you will settle the money?"
"I came out in a hurry today, I didn't bring any money, help us keep the accounts, just record my name as Potterang, and return it to you another day. ”
"I'm sorry, Mr. Porterlang, but we're a small business, and we don't owe anything on credit. ”
"Little Eller, I haven't seen you for a few days, I have a long time, Mr. Porterlang said that on the account, on the account, can you still send you these dozens of coppers? I don't go out to inquire, we brothers eat and drink, when do we have the habit of paying, please let us go, it depends on our mood, eating here today is to take care of your business, don't get an inch. ”
"I'm also working for people here, I can't be the master, we are all neighbors on the same street, no one can make it difficult for anyone, so let's do it, I'll be the master for our boss, we only charge a capital for today's meal, and you only need to pay thirty coppers." ”
"Shout, upper lip and lower lip, seven coppers will go, it seems that your business is very profitable, one meal earns us seven coppers, enough black-hearted, everyone come to see how much money these black-hearted businessmen have snatched from us." ”
"It can't be said that thirty coppers are only counted as money to buy grain, everyone knows that now the price of grain is one day a day, and your old customers have to make decisions for us, if we buy grain with ten coppers, there is absolutely no price increase following the trend, no matter how high the price outside, it is calculated according to ten coppers, until the next batch of new grain, even if it is against the God of truth, we can also pat our chests and say that we are right with our conscience. ”
"What Eller said is true, I Walkson can testify that the price of the food we eat here, especially these days, is cheaper than the crazy food outside, otherwise my mother-in-law is shrewd, how can I be willing to spend more copper for me to eat outside, but I am a rough person, I don't know how much copper I have saved, anyway, what I eat here is more full than what I eat at home, and I am more comfortable. ”
"This is telling the truth, your family and my family are a virtue, half the size and half the eldest girl, a bunch of girls, see the food, one by one eyes glow green, like a group of little wolf, the hand is a little slower, the bottom of the pot is licked for you to lick clean, can eat enough to be surprised, until I find this good place, finally can have a full meal to eat, work also has the strength, do not hide from you, from the beginning of the meal here, two weeks of hard work, a total of ten copper, ten copper, do not need to hand over to the family tigress, this is called his mother's life. ”
"And this kind of thing? How could I not know?"
"You old bachelor, what the hell can you know, a little money is either turned into cat urine into the belly, or thrown on the belly of a woman, and there is a copper that can be kept for the next day? ”
"If I die on the street one morning, wouldn't it be a cheap old bastard like Old John, who would even pick up the money of the dead. ”
"Don't look down on old John, people didn't steal, two didn't rob, three didn't eat and didn't give money, all rely on their own strength to eat, if there is spare money, old John will not take it in vain, will buy a thin mat, find a place to dig a pit to bury, save the corpse from being ruined by wild dogs, I didn't see a lot of homeless, even if I starved to death, I would leave three or two coppers on my body, which is called burying the corpse money. ”
"People are dead, and it doesn't matter where he is buried, but I heard that the Odin orcs on the other side of the mountain don't come to this set at all, after they die, they are all put in the open air, waiting for the wild wolf and giant eagle to peck at it, saying that this is a way to return to the grassland, I think this set is worth advocating, saving a lot of things. ”
"You are talking about the barbarian barbarians, why don't you say that those barbarians have no family concept at all, and women's tents can be drilled at will? Other people's sons will also be raised as their own sons!"
"This is also worth advocating, if it is really allowed, I will be the first to drill into your house?"
"You're looking for death, don't you, you talk nonsense, be careful that I tear your mouth. ”
"Just kidding, I didn't say anything?
The conflict between the young lobby manager and the ruffians who ate the overlord's meal did not arise, but those who spoke up were fighting each other.
Eller arched his hand in a circle and said, "Thank you for your fair words, and I will invite you to drink the sheep soup later." ”
"Drink mutton soup? What is this way of eating? I haven't heard of it! Isn't the fragrance wafting out of you the mutton soup you said? It's really unique! Just smelling the smell makes me a little impatient. ”
"I've only heard of grilled lamb chops, but I haven't heard of lamb soup, Eller, you're too stingy, aren't you? ”
"You're too greedy, someone is not satisfied with the treat, and you are picky, maybe the boss is happy or not, and Eller will have to pay out of his own pocket when the time comes, and he has an old lady and a little sister to feed at home, wait a minute, you can keep it in your mouth, don't eat too hard." ”
"Come on, you are the best among us, one person is the top three, you control yourself, better than anything else. ”
These diners are also big-hearted lords, not only do they have no fear of those ruffians and hooligans, but they will be crooked in the moment of talking, which makes those few people who are mixed on the street feel very faceless, and the most important thing in their line of work is to save face, if they lose face, it will be difficult for them to continue to mix.
A tall man, only sixteen or seventeen years old, with a pimple-riddled face, jumped up as soon as he slapped the table, his index finger was about to poke at the door of Eller's head, and said angrily: "Eller, you are ruthless, you actually invite a group of stupid old people to eat, and you don't give our brothers a few faces, it seems that your shop doesn't want to open on this street!"
Elle was undaunted by a young man who was a head taller than him, at least on the surface, because he knew that his new boss was watching from above, and he had to be worthy of the trust and salary that the other party had given him.
The most important point is that he doesn't know much about the other places of this young boss, but the amount of food of the other party, Eller is clear, and he does not shy away from them in physical training, that kind of training, if he does not have a knight-level body, he will not believe it if he kills Eller.
Eyler had the privilege of seeing each other's archery, and the veterans he knew in the tavern who liked to brag couldn't blow that level, and with a knight-level marksman standing behind him, Eller would be afraid that these little ruffians would see the hell.
The young lobby manager said righteously: "Today we will talk about things, it is not a matter of more money and less money, you pay for dinner, that is justified, whether it is to the constitutional court or to the church gods, we are reasonable, I invite guests to dinner, it is my personal feelings, it is my own volition, and it is also my freedom, you can't force me to invite you to dinner, right?
"That's right, this reason makes sense anywhere, I've never heard of forcing people to invite people to dinner, and I can't take out just thirty-seven coppers, so what else do you come out to mix?"
"Who is stupid and coarse? Who is stupid and coarse? There is something that no one teaches in life, which blind guy has not clamped his crotch and leaked out of your unfilial thing?
"Now the little young one, the more he mixes up, the more he goes back, he eats such a substandard meal for an overlord, I think back then, when we were muddy, we were looking for those who were rich and unkind, and I hadn't seen it indiscriminately. ”
"It's just a group of little scoundrels who can't get on the stage, relying on their strength, not doing business all day long, eating and drinking everywhere, and they can't get mixed up on the street in the east, and they come to our side to play tricks, how can they compare with my brother back then!"
At this point, those who are still fighting in the restaurant are obviously not good at stubble, all of them are muscular, their faces are full of meat, their arms are thicker than ordinary people's thighs, and when they speak, they don't have half a dirty word, but they are also yin and mean, and the group of young people who deliberately provoke trouble are like thunder, and many involuntarily touch the murder weapons they brought.
But he was stopped by the middle-aged man named Polant, who had been on the street for many years, experienced, and obviously noticed that something was wrong, and these diners around him were not like simple righteous words, and they couldn't help but feel a sudden slap in their hearts, could it be that there was a omission in their investigation, the owner of this shop is not as simple as it seems?
But they are now riding tigers, as Eller said, this is no longer a matter of thirty-seven coppers, but it involves their faces, if they shrink now, they will not have to mingle in this street in the future.
Polant arched his hand, and on his face full of meat, he squeezed out a smile and said: "Forgive me for my clumsiness, I don't know where a few people are begging for food?
"You're telling the truth, you're really clumsy, where else can you beg for food, of course you're begging for food here, can't we run here to sleep?"
"Obviously a stupid old man, what kind of civilized person, pay for dinner, right, if you can't pay, don't go out to eat, you only have one choice now, that is, pay, get out of here, if you really can't pay, it doesn't matter, there shouldn't be enough manpower here, I see so many tables haven't been cleaned up, one person working here for a day, can almost offset today's meal money, right? Mr. Eyler." ”
"Yes!Yes!Yes!" The young lobby manager, Eller, nodded repeatedly, looking confused, and the style of painting was a little wrong.
He just wanted to bribe these old customers with a bowl of mutton soup, help say a few fair words, and support himself, but the effect of this bowl of mutton soup is too great, and it makes them directly attract all their hatred.
"You are looking for death. "Porrant can bear it, but the little brothers he brought can't bear it, usually they play tricks on the street, others avoid three points, when did people be so mercilessly humiliated, the stout one roared and threw out.
Although this man is a little short-tempered, he is not stupid, and he knows that persimmons should be pinched softly, and the object of his hands is not the tall diner with the most cheap but long mouth, but the thin young lobby manager Eller.
