"Quack... Rattle... Quack..."

The slightly shrill sound of the seagulls came from the window, while some unknown birds chirped crisply. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info slowly opened his sleepy eyes, which were still hazy, Levi gently reached out to prop himself up and sat up on the bed, stretched hard, turned his head and glanced at the half-open window, the sunlight shining in looked a little dazzling, and he couldn't help but rub the corners of his eyes with his hands, and as his thoughts gradually recovered, he also understood: "It seems that I have slept for a long time." ”

The large wooden bucket for bathing was still placed in a corner of the room, and his clothes and equipment were the same as before, and he subconsciously rubbed his stomach, and a feeling of hunger couldn't help but make Levi frown slightly. Yesterday morning he came to the Tavern of the Sea Lance, and after a long toss he fell asleep, and although he got up and drank two or three times of water on the way, he fell asleep again as soon as his head touched the pillow, and only woke up the next day, that is, now, and slept a little sore all over.

Rubbing his stiff and sore neck, Levi rolled over and got out of bed in his ancient version of boxers, put on a simple slipper made of wood and leather, and slowly stretched his waist a few times, the stiffness and soreness that he had slept in a fixed position for a long time was relieved by the clattering sound. Before Levi could continue to do a few sets of movements, he seemed to hear a sound in the room, and footsteps appeared at the door, and gently knocked on the door outside: "Mr. Levi, are you awake?" ”

"Yes."

Listening to the crisp sound of a lady outside, Levi reached out and pulled the clothes on the hanger next to the bed to put them back on, the liner, trousers, trench coat and the belt with four flintlock pistols hanging, carefully sorted out the hair that had slept messily, and then he walked over and opened the door. Outside, indeed, a girl who looked to be 14 years old, dressed in a rough and extremely clean garment, was standing respectfully with a tray of trays, which was the daily breakfast that the Sea Lance Tavern gave to its occupants.

"Dear Mr. Levy, today's breakfast is three slices of white bread, half a herring, and a glass of aperitif."

Her blonde hair hung down her temples, and the pretty face of this cute little girl was full of smiles. Levi often rested in this room, and his aristocratic modest demeanor also left a very deep shadow in the hearts of these adolescent girls. But after putting down the tray, the little girl bowed down to Levi very respectfully and said, "Thank you so much last week, if you hadn't seen it, my sister and I really don't know what would have happened." ”

"It's nothing, the people of the Sea Lance Tavern can't be bullied at will." Levi shook his head and smiled, the little girl's name was Agatha and she lived with her sister Dinah. One night last week, she and her sister were almost dragged into the room by two rich businessmen who had drunk too much, and if Levi hadn't seen them and reached out to rescue the two of them, they would have been bullied by the two rich businessmen all night.

This kind of topic Levi did not take the initiative to propose, and the little Agatha girl nodded gratefully, and then retreated very respectfully towards the door, after all, this kind of memory that makes her feel scared when she thinks about it, it is best to deal with it silently. However, Li Wei also heard that the two wealthy businessmen who had drunk too much that night seemed to have paid a lot of price to get out, and were even beaten by thugs, and they all had blue noses and swollen faces when they left.

Of course, this is just a gesture for Levi, and the morality of his previous life still leaves a deep impression on his heart, so he will leave a humble reputation in this world. Even if Agatha and Zhenrina have a very low status, even if they are really bullied, the result is only to leave a few large silver coins in compensation. Reasonable, or his kindness exploded, maybe Levi didn't want to see this happen.

"Looks like it's almost time."

Levi turned his head to look at the sunlight outside the window, and judging by the refraction of the light, it was about 7 o'clock in the morning. According to the usual time, he had to arrive at the dock at half past seven and hand over with First Officer Green on his Devo merchant ship. After all, the current merchant sailors are divided into two shifts, and yesterday was just a day of style, and First Officer Green and the other nine sailors also came to the Sea Lance Tavern to relax. And the daily maintenance of merchant ships after going to sea, as well as the scrubbing of decks and hulls are also necessary tasks, which they should do today.

The Sea Lance Tavern is one of the few high-end venues in the harbor outside the Grey Mist City, and the free breakfast provided is also extremely exquisite. The white bread made from the finest wheat is cut into three portions, and the fresh herring is fried and topped with a sweet lime and onion broth. Especially after a small glass of appetizing ale, in addition to the local aristocrats who pretend to be picky gourmets, the merchants who have eaten enough bacon and brown bread after a long voyage should also sincerely praise the deliciousness of such a well-prepared breakfast.

At least Levi had eaten enough of the bacon and brown bread on board, and although he was only active in the offshore and it was convenient to replenish fresh ingredients, it was impossible to buy too many fresh ingredients in order to save costs and expenses. For example, fruit and fresh meat, which only appeared in the gallows and warehouses of the Devo merchant ships for a small profit, and most of what Levi and his sailors usually ate was black bread that could be used as bricks in a hard state, and salted meat, which had been stored in dry places for hundreds of years and did not necessarily spoil.

"It seems that personnel expenses are going to increase by two or three times all of a sudden."

Swallowing the last bite of white bread dipped in sweet and sour sauce, Levi's face seemed to be slightly stunned as if he remembered something, and then showed a wry smile: "Sure enough, there is no free lunch in the world." "Yesterday I just recruited a heavy Galie warship, and although the number of 77 sailors seems to be full of a sense of achievement, from a vulgar point of view, food, clothing, shelter and transportation are all expensive. You know, this is a real living world, how can there be a game where you don't need to eat or drink and only need money?

However, it is reassuring that the soldiers who come into this world do not need maintenance costs at least, and if you count the maintenance costs of each quarter, it is a lot of money. But even if the soldiers only need to eat and drink, the recruited ships need to be carefully tended and maintained at all times. After all, unlike the world in the game, if the ship is not well maintained in this real world, it can cause a series of problems such as water seepage or decay of wooden planks, the result can be fatal.

Levi, who cherishes his life so much, doesn't want to trap himself in it because of laziness because of something he has to do, and besides, it's time to simply maintain the ship once a week. After eating breakfast, Levi quickly cleaned up in the room, and after making sure that he hadn't forgotten something, he got up and walked out of the door, there were still two thugs acting as guards at the staircase, and when he saw Levi, he hurriedly greeted: "Mr. Levi, I don't know if the breakfast is still to taste?" ”

"Of course, it was a really delicious breakfast, especially with the evocative taste of the herring."

Smiling and nodding, Levi was also not stingy with praise for breakfast. As a fresh water that has been eaten for four or five days of bacon and brown bread, and mixed with inferior rum to avoid the faint smell of fish, it is really good to have such a well-prepared breakfast prepared by the chef. However, Levi also turned his head apologetically to look in the direction of the corridor, and at the same time nodded to them: "The barrel and bed in the room have not been cleaned up yet, and it will be troublesome for someone to tidy it up later." ”

"These are as they should be." The two thugs also nodded respectfully, and then watched Levi's back go downstairs and leave. They were also interesting people, and a short chat could only reflect Levi's humility, and in this hierarchical society, their status was obviously not comparable to that of Levi, whom the elder Morton greatly admired. And according to what they knew when they drank with Levi's sailors, they could also know that this seemingly modest young man was like a different person after encountering something, otherwise he would not have almost relied on his own strength to shock the group of rotten algae gang and not dare to move.
