Chapter 33: Interlude
After learning more about the matter from Kashya, he was already full of this meal. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's a silver coin." The clerk who was called over by Hou Ye to settle the bill said. However, his words frightened Hou Ye.
"A silver coin?" Hou Ye almost suspected that he had heard it wrong! How can such food be a silver coin? Last time, he only needed soup and white bread for a gold coin! And it's also half price during the special period!
"Isn't that weird?" Kasha said with a smile, no surprise at all. It seems that she has known the fees here for a long time.
Hou Ye nodded when he heard this. But then again, if it's so cheap, why aren't there so many people who come to eat? Instead, they all go to that tavern where the dead are expensive and the dead are expensive?
"This tavern is probably the first since Camp Rogue was established." "It's just that the people it is aimed at are civilians and mercenaries, so the price is very low, and even the things here are not a problem for you to eat for free as long as you dare." ”
"Why?" Hou Ye was puzzled, "If you keep losing money like this, what does the owner of the tavern rely on to support this tavern?" ”
"Woo......" Kashya's eyes narrowed, "If I believe that all of humanity has no money, then that person is definitely not in it. That profiteer! ”
"Profiteers?"
Hearing this word, Hou Ye's mind inexplicably remembered a person, Kidd. If he's not mistaken, it seems that Kasha recommended himself to go to him to gamble and try his luck, right?
"Is it Kidd?" Hou Ye said tentatively.
"Hmm." Kashya nodded, "The owner of this tavern is actually Kidd, it's incredible, in fact, another tavern is also Kidd's property. ”
"......" Hou Ye was a little incomprehensible, "Why do you want to open two of them?" And the fees are so different! ”
"In order for civilians to live." When Kasha said this, he was inexplicably a little melancholy.
“?”
Kasha smiled wryly, "It's incredible, what we didn't try to do at the time, he did it by opening two hotels." ”
"Why is that?" Hou Ye couldn't figure it out.
"Dignity." "After opening the tavern, he gathered all the people in the camp, and then stood at the door and said a word to them. ”
"He said: I have money, I can keep you in captivity like pigs, give you food, as long as you can lose that last dignity and are willing to live like pigs."
"This ...... It's going to stir up the anger of the people. Hou Ye said dumbfounded.
"Of course. That's what he was trying to do. Kashya smiled as if she remembered something happy.
"All the people who were there at the time were crazy. They roared and rushed forward to press Kidd to the ground and beat him, and some of them burned the tavern with torches. "But it was only half a day. Like warriors who have regained their fighting spirit, they begin a fiery reconstruction, and the first object of reconstruction is this tavern. ”
"A tavern that humiliates them and wakes them up."
Kasha sighed and sighed, "Dignity is a wonderful thing. ”
Hou Ye didn't speak, he felt that what Kasha said was nonsense. But looking at Kasha's appearance, it doesn't look like she's making up a story. Believe it.
"Actually, it's not that exaggerated." At this time, the clerk who had been standing next to him spoke, "It's just that he really made us regain our confidence in life"
"Is that so......" Hou Ye glanced at Kasha, sure enough, she couldn't fully believe her words. Half of the letter is right.
He took out a gold coin from his backpack and handed it to the clerk, and after saying that he didn't need to look for it, he and Kasha walked out of the tavern together.
And the clerk didn't mean to look for money at all. After all, it's not the first time he's experienced this kind of thing.
"Do you want to come with me to give a pension?" Kashya stretched. After drinking, it is inevitable that you will feel a little sleepy.
"Okay. It's idle anyway. Hou Ye said. For him, turning around blindly by himself is also turning, and walking is no different from Kashya's walking.
So the two of them chatted and walked forward.
After passing through two alleys, the two men finally arrived at their destination, a low, dilapidated wooden house.
After knocking on the door, there was a sound from inside that the door was unlocked, and the two men pushed the door open and walked in.
The furnishings in the room are very simple, a small space is roughly divided into two halves, with a wooden bed on one side and a black stove on the other. The only thing in the whole room that was considered to be decorative was the polished short bow that hung on the wall, but looking at the appearance of the bow, it had been some years.
"Kasha-sama?" The old man sitting on the bed in the room was obviously stunned for a moment when he saw that the person who came turned out to be Kasha, "Why are you here, do it quickly, alas, the hut is relatively simple, don't dislike it, adults." ”
"It's fine." Kashya waved his hand and motioned for the old man to sit down, then took out a bag and a bow from his backpack.
The bag contained money, a total of 100 gold coins, which was a pension. And that bow is the last relic of the dead Rogge.
"This ......" the old man seemed to anticipate something, and his face turned white at once. Trembling, he took the bow. Immediately after, tears poured out uncontrollably.
"I'm sorry." Kashya whispered.
Hou Ye could feel this moment, and Kasha's mood was very heavy.
The atmosphere in the room became very dreary. Hou Ye couldn't stand it a little, turned around and pushed open the door and went out.
There was a small cobblestone in front of the door, and Hou Ye walked over and sat down. I felt a little depressed in my heart, but why I felt this way, Hou Ye couldn't say.
laughed self-deprecatingly, "When did you become so sentimental." ”
Behind him, Kasha's voice comforting the old man came through the door panel, and through Kasha's words, Hou Ye knew the cause of the unknown Roge's death.
In order to cover the departure of the transferee, he stayed alone to buy time for the transferee.
"What a bastard." Hou Ye scolded secretly, he swore that it was best not to let himself touch this kind of person, otherwise, he would definitely beat him severely.
……
By the time Kasha came out of the house, a long time had passed. Hou Ye was sitting on the cobblestone in a daze, and after Kasha patted him, he came to his senses.
"Let's go, go to Kane's and have some drinks with me."
"Hmm." Hou Ye did not refuse Kasha's invitation, because now he really wants to drink.
