Chapter 763: The Artifact Walker
"Since you say so, is there a way to solve it?" The temptation of spices was far greater than the fear, and although the deterrence of the warriors was in front of them, someone still asked stubbornly. "Of course, the reason why our store has not sold spices with the prefix of the star and the word for the moon for so long is that there is really a problem with the raw materials, but for the sake of everyone who cares so much and supports the store, my boss decided to sell the last batch of inventory to everyone. The director snapped his fingers, and several salespeople appeared in the hallway, each holding a plate covered with a red cloth in their hands.
"Stock?" The crowd suddenly discussed, and their faces eased a little, as long as there was goods, it would be done, and when they thought about it, they suddenly rushed to the counter like a swarm, "Please come according to the order, each person is limited to two bottles, the stock is limited, I hope you understand." The woman who had been forced away from before stood behind the counter and whispered.
Soon, three long lines lined up, and the person who got the spice first laughed happily, and those who didn't get it stretched their necks anxiously, hoping that the person in front of them could hurry up and hurry up, "This adult, I still have a small question." A woman with the spices quietly walked up to the supervisor and whispered what it was.
"You don't have to worry about this, when you run out of these two bottles of spices, we will definitely have new products on the market. The supervisor was much more polite to the woman, Long Yu looked at it a few more times, and found that the woman had the symbol of the sun on her shawl, and in the Holy City, those who could wear the star and moon symbols were the family members of officials and nobles, and those who wore the sun symbol were the royal relatives of the Holy City and the high-ranking personnel of the temple.
This is a significant hierarchical rule, closely related to the daily life of the High Elves, and it is precisely because of the sun symbol on the shawl that the women can be treated politely by this warm-hearted and ruthless supervisor.
The woman nodded, carefully carried the hem of her skirt and left, the director looked at the messy utensils around her, frowned inadvertently, looked over, and just saw Long Yu and Ye Wenhao standing in the corner.
Both of them were wearing official uniforms, and there was no pattern on their arms, they were officials who did not enter the stream at first glance, the supervisor did not take it to heart, just glanced at it, and turned his head and approached the aisle, and the warriors who rushed out followed him, and went back with him, and after a while, the people in the store walked around, counting, and only Long Yu and Ye Wenhao were left.
"Guest, are you here to buy spices?" The woman walked over from the counter very politely, and Long Yu smiled slightly: "Yes, but it seems that there is no more." "That's not it, the guests who come here have a share, these are the last four bottles, which the director specially ordered to keep for the two guests. The woman smiled and pushed the plate in front of her, and there were four bottles in it.
The bottle is transparent, no different from ordinary spice bottles, but it contains a dark purple viscous liquid, and you can smell an intoxicating fragrance through the cork.
"Then thank you, how much?" Long Yu took out the money bag from his arms and motioned to Ye Wenhao to put away the spices, Ye Wenhao nodded, and was just about to take the four bottles, but the careful salesman next to him had quickly packed the bottles in a cardboard box, and wrapped them in an anti-collision leather, and quickly handed them over to Ye Wenhao after tying them.
"The customer is no longer needed, the supervisor has explained, this is a little bit of the heart of the store. The woman smiled and replied, "That's not good, you have to pay for things, it's a matter of course." Long Yu pretended, kept the bottom of the money bag, and poured hundreds of gold coins on the counter with a "bang".
"Guest, really don't need it. The woman waved her hand again and again, but did not touch the gold coins on the counter. "These bottles of spices were given by the supervisor to the two guests to taste, and if the guests don't dislike it, they will accept it, but if they give money, I will be scolded by the supervisor. The woman looked pitiful, looking at Long Yu with grievances, as if giving her money was harming her.
Long Yu had to put the money away, looked at the woman and said, "Thank you for me, director, if you have the opportunity, let's drink tea together." After speaking, Long Yu walked out with Ye Wenhao. "Big brother, why are you in a hurry to leave, we haven't figured out why this store pays such a high tax. Ye Wenhao asked puzzled. "I'll talk about it later. Long Yu said in a low voice, and the corner of his eye inadvertently swept not far away, where there were a few passers-by, pretending to pass by.
"Oh" Ye Wenhao answered, followed Long Yu and left, the two quickly returned to the Dongcheng City Guarding Yamen, it was already off work here, the bullheads were eating in twos and threes, seeing Long Yu coming back, someone immediately ran to report Yi Shuihan, Yi Shuihan hurriedly came out with his clothes on.
"Big brother, how is it, have you found anything?" Yi Shuihan asked. "It's all here, you see, what's so weird about these spices. Long Yu took the bandaged spice from Ye Wenhao's hand and handed it over.
The spices could not hide the intoxicating fragrance through the box and the fur, Yi Shuihan couldn't help but wrinkle his nose when he took the box and said, "It's a good smell, I'll take a look at it." "Hey, don't waste it, you might as well keep a bottle to taste. Ye Wenhao watched the box being taken away by Yi Shuihan, and said reluctantly.
"What to taste, what delicious you haven't eaten, go, eat. Long Yu glared at Ye Wenhao, and the two walked towards the dining hall, the dining hall is located on the first floor of Long Yu's yamen, anyway, there are many vacant housing prices in this building, so it is better to take a few out as useful places.
"Sir, you're back. "The kitchen is in charge of Red Lotus and a few maids found, these maids are not the High Elves without exception, but a race called Gaul, the women of this race are all high-nosed and red-haired, but because they have no pointed ears and colorful skin, they are also turned into an inferior nation by the High Elves, most of them are in the city doing some hard work such as coachmen and delivery boys, and most of the women are working as maids and nannies in the homes of the High Elves.
Since the appearance of the High Elves in this different dimension, the fate of the Gauls has been sealed, they are closer to the Westerners on the Tianlu Continent in appearance, but there are still differences, for example, these Gauls are all six fingers, one pair has twelve fingers, and there are still some differences with humans.
The cooking skills of the Gallic women are quite superb, but what they do is the daily diet of some ordinary people, so although it is delicious, it is not a big scene, and it also makes their specialty indifferent, but here in Longyu it is different, they can do what they like to do as they like, and these things, regardless of taste or color, will be eaten clean every day.
"What's there to eat, Maria?" The kitchen is open to two rooms, and there is only one dining table outside, which is for Long Yu and them, and as soon as the two of them sat down, a fat woman with a bloated figure came over with a smile.
"Back to the master, there are drunken golden crabs and beef patties today. Maria smiled back, "Sounds delicious, serve it, I'm hungry." Long Yu lit the table, and Maria hurried into the room, shouting to the other servants to warm up the food that had been prepared.
"This crab is very delicious, I don't know where you got it?" Long Yu asked casually as he ate the crab. "It was the Red Lotus girl who found it, and we are only responsible for doing it. Mary returned. "Oh, by the way, Mary, you go back first, and we'll eat for ourselves. Long Yu said softly, although Maria felt strange, she still nodded, beckoned all the servants in the room to come out, and quickly left the kitchen.
Ye Wenhao ignored it, and ate the hot beef patty on the plate, with two plates of dipping sauce in front of him, one plate is red chili sauce, and the other plate is a sauce made of green green onions and spices.
"Your Excellency, come out, squatting by the window is strangely hard. The smile on Long Yu's face suddenly turned cold, and a crab leg between the chopsticks flew out with a "whoosh" and hit the open window, and with a "snap", the crab leg was bounced away by a white light, and a figure jumped down from the window, and walked a few steps towards Long Yu before completely revealing its figure.
"Lord Artifact Supervisor, I really didn't expect that you would follow us?" Long Yu's face changed again, and he made a posture of sitting with a smile, Ye Wenhao was still eating the things on his plate by himself, and he didn't look up at all.
"The general is not only superior in wisdom, but also extraordinary in strength. "The director of Svenven was dressed in a light garment, a leather jacket made of soft leather, durable canvas trousers underneath, high leather shoes worn by hunters, and a belt hanging diagonally around his waist, which was full of small leather buttons, and at the moment, on which were hung small colorful bottles, which looked very interesting.
And on both sides of his high leather boots, two daggers were buckled with belts, this outfit was simply similar to the director Long Yu they had seen before, if it weren't for this look, with his momentum alone, Long Yu would not be able to associate him with that supervisor at all.
"The Director's outfit doesn't look like he's coming to talk to me. Long Yu glanced at him and motioned for the uninvited guest to sit down. The director patted his arm very politely, sat aside like a gentleman, looked at Long Yu and said, "I take the liberty to visit, and I hope the general will understand, but I am here without any malice." ”
"Oh, then you have to talk about it?" Long Yu raised his arm and made a gesture of invitation, the director lowered his head, and at some point, he had already placed a full wine glass in front of him, and before he sat down, he obviously saw that this place was empty.
