Chapter 47: A Guest Arrives
While it was still dark, Agthius and Li Feng hurried to the market to buy some bedding, while Caroline returned to her previous bakery and took away more than 50 loaves of bread, most of which were black bread, 10 white loaves of bread and two brioche breads, which were regarded as the treasures of the town.
In addition, Caroline also ordered an additional 300 black breads from her previous owner, and the delivery was completed within two days.
Because of the dismissal of the employee, the bakery owner, who could only go into battle in person, couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at the two silver coins that Caroline took out.
Is this the same employee I fired before? How can I be so rich?
Watching Caroline return to the unlisted building next to her, the bakery owner was even more puzzled, what kind of business was sitting next to her?
Even pigs don't need so much brown bread, right?
By the time Li Feng and Agthius came back from outside with large bags and small bags, the time had come to night.
By the time the beds were made, it was completely dark, and because it was a back street, there were not many shops with lights on outside the door, and there were fewer pedestrians on the street.
Caroline took out the mushroom soup and meat muffins she had prepared in advance, as well as brioche bread and wheat porridge and put them on the table, and everyone sat around the table.
A thief's little eyes were in the corner of the wall, looking at the food on the table, and couldn't help but make a sizzling sound.
Xiao Hei tilted his head and looked, "Jamie, aren't you leaving?"
Jamie immediately crawled out of the mouse hole and saluted Xiao Hei crookedly: "Lord Black is the Rat King, Jamie is the most heroic warrior in Kalan City, and Jamie should be by the king's side." ”
Xiao Hei had been bullied by house mice before, and he should not have any good feelings about house mice, but he felt that this mouse named Jamie was a little different from other mice, a little less violent and a little more alert.
Xiao Hei pointed to the meatloaf that was spinning on the plate in front of him: "Do you want to eat it?"
"Yes!" Jamie nodded immediately.
"Then come up!" said the little black.
Jamie looked at Caroline with some trepidation.
"Don't worry, I've already told her that she won't do anything to you. "Little underworld.
Jamie trotted all the way under the table and climbed up grabbing the legs of the table.
Xiao Hei looked at Li Feng, who had already eaten a lot, and said, "Help me divide it, I can't finish such a big piece of meatloaf." ”
The meatloaf is torn in half, and half of it is thrown in front of Jamie.
Jamie didn't have the slightest politeness, grabbed the meatloaf and started nibbling.
Xiao Hei tore a small piece of meatloaf and put it in his mouth, chewing while looking at Karina, who was sitting on the sofa and being fed by Caroline: "As I said before, you help me record information, one sentence 1 copper coin, a total of 241 useful information was recorded this afternoon, that is, 241 copper coins, equivalent to 2 silver coins and 41 copper coins, Agthius, you remember to pay the money to her later." ”
Because Li Feng doesn't know the words of the otherworld, he is currently in charge of Agthius.
Agthius's mouth was stuffed with food, and he muttered, "Hmm." ”
After dinner, Black takes out the bag of brown bread that Caroline bought before the sun goes down and gives it to Jamie.
One after another, the big rats came out of the mouse hole, and while chatting and chatting, they carried the bread back into the hole, and the scene was full of festive flavor like the New Year.
The next morning, Xiao Hei's customized plaque arrived, because Xiao Hei pursued momentum, all did not let the carpenter do it, but went to a special plaque shop to order a piece, which cost a golden dragon.
When he got the plaque, although Xiao Hei didn't know what was written on the plaque, he still had a majestic intuitive feeling when he looked at the handwriting of the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing.
"Forget the Worry Tavern?" Karina looked at the words on the plaque, thinking of the words she had relayed through Lord Black, and immediately understood: "Lord Black wants to sell news, anyone who comes here can not only buy drunk but also solve their own troubles by buying news, right?"
Xiao Hei looked at Karina and nodded, "Not bad! You're very smart!"
After the plaque was hung, the drinks were delivered.
Although it is a cheap ale wine, it has a unique taste after being divided into small bottles and placed on the wine rack by Xiao Hei.
If it weren't for the fact that this is the Southern District, I'm afraid that the decoration of this Forget Worry Tavern would be able to attract many princes and nobles who pursue romance.
It's a pity that in Xiao Hei's heart, selling wine is just a side business, and selling news is his main business.
It's better not to be too public, it's better to have a little more mystery about selling news.
Hang up the plaque, put the drinks in the warehouse, and then ask Caroline to go out on the street to buy some fruit cutting plates, and the Forget Worries Tavern is officially open.
Time passed silently, and half a day passed, and no one stepped into the tavern.
Caroline was anxiously soliciting customers in front of the door, but it was on the back street, and the flow of people in a minute was less than 5 people.
finally pulled in a dazed drunkard from the southern district, but the other party woke up immediately when he saw the furnishings in the tavern, and he seemed to rush out.
The price is too high to afford.
Li Feng and Agathius watched from the sidelines, but there was nothing they could do.
One of them is mute now, and the other has a cold personality and doesn't know how to pull people in.
But Xiao Hei hid on the second floor with an indifferent face, receiving the gossip brought by those house mice.
The clock was fast approaching evening.
After a hard day's work, the two law enforcement officers are ready to return to the Eastern District to rest.
"When did you open a tavern here?" said Twin, a 23-year-old athletic law enforcement officer with an awl face.
Cooper, a 35-year-old law enforcement officer with a long beard, looked puzzled, "I think I've been here before." ”
Twin patted his head: "I remember that someone reported yesterday that there was a trafficking case here, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding, but the decoration of this tavern is quite good, do you want to try it?"
"Well, things are so bad on the East End, if this tavern is as good as his name suggests, forget it, what am I thinking?" Cooper shook his head and walked with Twin into the Forgotten Tavern.
At this time, Xiao Hei and his group were eating in the middle of the room, and they were all stunned when they saw Twen and Cooper walking in.
Before he was discovered by the other party, Xiao Hei kicked Jamie off the table with a flying kick, and then jumped into the air to Erha's head, which was facing the dog basin and gulping and eating.
"Can I drink now?" said Twin, looking at Li Feng, the only person here who looked like a boss.
"Yes, yes!" Caroline hurriedly greeted her: "Sir, sit casually, whatever wine you want, I'll bring it to you." ”
"It's just a bar! You don't think you can get any good wine. Cooper said.
Because of their identity as law enforcement officers, they are not afraid of the other party offering high prices and ripping off customers.
The two came to sit down on a high stool facing the road, and looked at the passers-by on the street who were hurrying home, and their irritable mood slowly calmed down.
"It feels pretty good. Cooper commented.
Twin sighed: "But it can only relieve the fatigue of the body, and the depression in my heart still exists." ”
Caroline grabbed two small wine jugs and wine glasses in one hand, and put a fruit tray on the table in front of the two of them in the other hand: "The boss explained that because you are the first customer of our store, you will give a free fruit plate." ”
"Shouldn't the drinks be free?" said Cooper, teasing.
Caroline hugged the empty plate to her chest: "The store is newly opened, and the renovation has cost a lot of money, and I really can't afford to implement the free drink activity, two gentlemen, when our store makes money in the future, how about making up for this meal for you?"
"Can this be made up?" Cooper was amused by Caroline's words, he filled the empty glass with ale, raised his glass to Li Feng, who was frowning and staring at them tightly, and looked back at Caroline: "But anyway, thank you, I like your tavern decoration style very much, and I may come more often in the future." ”
"That's great. ”
Caroline bowed to Cooper, then stepped back to 3 meters away, quietly watching the table move.
The distance of 3 meters is a safe distance in people's hearts, which will not be disgusting, and at the same time, they can help at any time.
After two glasses of wine, the words of the two law enforcement team members slowly opened.
"I said those guys in the East Side are too bad for a thing, why do they want us to help wipe their butts when they die? Couldn't it be that their own people killed them? Say that the prisoners must have come from our South District, really! It's not responsible to talk at all. Twin said, shaking his head.
"What's the solution? Who told us that the South Side has the highest crime rate?" Cooper's face flushed, apparently already drunk.
Hearing the conversation between the two, Caroline suddenly stepped forward and said, "Both, are you talking about the murder in the East End?
"Little girl, do you know that?" Cooper turned.
Cooper just asked casually, who would have thought that Caroline would directly spread her hands: "Buy ten stars of ordinary news, 1 silver coin, give me money and I will tell you the news of the murderer." ”
What does it mean?
Cooper was stunned.
Can you buy this thing?
You're not kidding me, are you?
