Chapter 32: Wine Glass Strategy
Although there are still doubts about this new crew member, after all, they have already been on the ship, and Beichuan can't say anything more. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ Info He turned to the only two members of Sukhbaatar at the moment:
"Although with a new crew member Balu joined! But we're going to need more people to get this big guy out of port, so I think it's time to change our strategy, because it's still too inefficient. β
"It's long overdue! If this continues, I guess there will never be a second person on board except Baloo! Leeds still has a deep resentment towards Kitagawa's decision.
"Next I think we should check out the tavern, it's a place where a lot of people gather, and there are often ownerless sailors, samurai, wanderers, waiting for their chances."
"Yes! Not a bad idea! Liz agreed.
Seeing Liz's approval, a hint of cunning flashed in Beichuan's eyes.
"Liz agrees, I arrange it this way; Baloo and I went to the tavern to recruit sailors, and how about you stay and watch our ship? β
The girl's face changed drastically, and she finally knew where the source of Nas's uneasiness was.
"Why don't you let me go?"
"It's very simple, Balu doesn't know much about the ship, and it's obviously inappropriate to keep him on the ship, which means that you and I have to have one person stay and watch the ship, and how can I recruit people as the captain without me?"
Kitagawa didn't mention recruiting manpower, but as soon as he mentioned this girl, he remembered that Balu was almost rejected by this guy just now, and hurriedly retorted:
"Come on! Balu has such a good manpower, and he almost drove you away, and it will only add to the chaos! Let me go! You just stayed and guarded the ship honestly. β
Balu was embarrassed to hear this, reached out and touched his head, and smiled.
Beichuan was not annoyed when he heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up and smiled at the girl: "However, recruiting people requires money, do you have it?" β
Liz subconsciously touched her pocketβit was empty, so the girl could only snort and turn around and ignore Beichuan.
Kitagawa shook his head and smiled, and walked down the plank to the Sukhbaatar towards the nearby tavern.
Leeds' shouts could be heard in the distance
"Hey! If you can't recruit enough people, don't come back! β
Kitagawa waved his hand...
On the streets near Port Wall,
Kitagawa and Baru walked down the road one after the other.
The former of them suddenly stopped: "Balu! How much do you know about the pubs around here? β
The burly man showed a habitual honest smile and said: "There is only one tavern in the vicinity under the big oak tree facing the street over there, and that tavern often has other captains and his men to dine there, and the tavern owner is very good and arrogant, he often invites me to dinner and is a very kind person, if it were not for his help, my previous life would be miserable." β
"Oh?"
Beichuan nodded and didn't say anything more, and the two of them walked all the way to the sword tavern that Balu said.
Coming to the huge oak tree, Kitagawa found that the tavern was built around this large one, and the whole building encompassed the middle and lower parts of the huge oak tree, and also borrowed the huge branches of the oak tree as a load for the tavern building.
At the entrance of the tavern there is a wooden sign in the shape of a wine flag, on which is painted a delicate relief in the shape of a wine glass, and the word Old Oak is written in the flowered Kallad lingua franca under the relief.
Pushing open the old wooden door of the tavern, the wooden door creaked and screeched.
Hearing the door, the waiter in the store immediately came over when he saw a customer coming to the door, and diligently promoted the characteristics of the store. But Kitagawa, who had other plans, turned a deaf ear and just looked at the drinkers around him.
The interior of this tavern is still very large, and it seems that it can accommodate hundreds of people at a time, and the tables and stools used are all round and solid Jupiters scattered throughout the hall. The clientele here varies from the sumptuous quasi-aristocratic outfits to the ragged adventurers and vagabonds.
There were sailors shaving with large exaggerated sailor knives, a few unknown people sitting in the corner picking their feet while watching the drinkers come and go around them with bad intentions, and there was even a man dressed as a nobleman who snatched a meatless bone from a dog on the table.......
Seeing this, Beichuan frowned, and the situation here made him a little disappointed, because he found that there was no suitable candidate sitting here, so it became difficult to recruit people who wanted to do it. What was missing on the ship was a veteran with a good reputation and some sailing experience, but now he had to give up that naΓ―ve idea...
Kitagawa was thinking about it when a snarky voice suddenly interrupted his thoughts.
"Hey, hey! What the hell are you here for, sir? If you're not here for a drink, please get out! Don't get in the way of our business! β
Beichuan turned his head to look and realized; It turned out to be the waiter who was following along, but after selling for a long time, he found that the customer didn't mean to listen at all, and he was a little annoyed.
"Oh! I'm sorry! "Beichuan apologized, he came to recruit people, and it was very unwise to cause trouble here.
When the waiter heard this guy apologize to himself, he felt that Beichuan must not be a gold owner, and his attitude became more and more cold.
"Poor ghost! It's okay, please get out of here! β
Beichuan glanced at the waiter calmly, and then said aloud:
"Excuse me, down there is the captain of the 'Sukhbaatar' Higgs, and it is an honor to meet you here, so I would like to invite you to have a drink! How is it? β
Wow!
There was silence on the field, and the drinkers turned their heads to look at the young man in the field.
Beichuan looked at the various meaningless gazes that had gathered over him, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he glanced at Balu who was following him.
Balu immediately understood the big slap of the fan and pushed the poor waiter aside, who had not yet reacted, and then took two steps forward to call the tavern owner.
After a while, a thin little old man swayed and followed Balu over, and the old man was not in a hurry when he arrived, but he first glanced at Beichuan before he said slowly:
"Old Sam Tim is the owner of this tavern, may I ask if this gentleman is all the people here?"
Kitagawa smiled: "Boy Higgs, please add a glass to everyone who is doing it!" β
"Okay! Do you want to add good ale to everyone? Earn 20 gold coins! Old Sam stared into Kitagawa's eyes and stretched out his withered palm.
The guy pretended to grab a handful from his bosom, but in fact he took 20 gold coins from his inventory and put them in the hands of the thin old man.
Old man Sam only felt that his hand was sinking, and a piece of gold came to his hand, and the old man was also a person who had seen the world in the end, and soon he came back to his senses, meaning that he said to Beichuan inexplicably.
"Siges, don't you need to count?"
"No need."
(Someone smirks, can the system go wrong?) οΌ
Hearing this, Sam's face changed again, such an atmospheric person is not a big man from the royal city of Sagoth? Immediately, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked the waiter to bring out a large vat of ale wine for the drinkers to fill it one by one, and finally Sam personally poured a full cup for Beichuan.
Beichuan took the wine glass, picked it up and pretended to fiddle with the bow tie that didn't exist at the neckline.
"Ahem! Please drink this cup to your heart's content! β
As he spoke, he took the lead and drank it all.
At the wine table in Beichuan's previous life, a person's injustice mainly depends on whether he is large enough, and in Beichuan, it is almost the same in the other world, especially in this kind of mixed occasion, a glass of wine may be able to solve a lot of trouble.
Drinking the malt liquor that was not very luminous in one gulp, Kitagawa turned the cup upside down.
Sure enough, everyone looked at him differently.
Bite! Your actions have had an impact on Wolharbour,
You (Higgs) have +10 Fame
+100 your reputation in Wal Harbor! You've earned the title! Famous(Walport)!
"Haha! Your Excellency, a bold man! I have an appetite for a certain family! If you run into any trouble here in Wall Harbor, you might as well report my name as Black Back! A high roller smiled heartily and also took a drink from his glass.
As soon as the high roller spoke, someone whispered
"It's the black back of the East Wharf!"
"Shhhh Don't talk nonsense, be careful of being overheard..."
"Hey! Originally, I also wanted to befriend this kid, but I didn't expect to be preempted by him! There aren't many people who are so temperamental these days! A captain sighed as he glanced at the crew members behind him with different looks.
Beichuan glanced at this high-roller, only to feel that his face was heroic and his gestures were not like ordinary people, so he said:
"It's rare that this brother can afford to look down, so in that case, you might as well have another drink! The boss will fill this brother again, and the money will be counted in my account! β
