Chapter 218: The Tavern
Unlike the hustle and bustle of other restaurants and bars in Markwei City, the tavern that Su Wen came to was much more deserted, and there were even more than half of the empty seats in the entire hall.
Compared with other places, it can be regarded as "bad business", but judging from the indifferent appearance of the boss, it seems that business is not good, and it has no effect on him.
Entering the door and sitting down to order, Su Wen was like an ordinary diner. However, in this short period of time, he has already observed the entire hall.
The boss looked indifferent, but the magic flowing in his body was almost comparable to that of the top teachers in the academy, and he was a well-hidden fellow, and among these diners, there were both the best among the adventurers and the loyal and honest ordinary residents.
It seems that this tavern is a small cave in the middle of the city of Markway.
Although Markway City is not as developed as in the north, the prices are not ambiguous at all, and the bargains displayed by other restaurants are almost as expensive as the high-end restaurants in College Town.
This is still in an ordinary lively restaurant, and as for the place that looks more classy, I am afraid that it is many times higher.
Although they earn a lot, in addition to the danger, the daily expenses of these adventurers are still a bit large.
This made Su Wen, who was used to the high quality and low price of the Imperial Academy cafeteria, a little surprised.
After Su Wen ordered, the boss personally delivered Su Wen the set meal he wanted—after all, he was the only one staring at the hall of this tavern.
Modest portions of meat and easy-to-preserve marinated beans, plus a huge brown bread and a glass of water, that's all there is to this package.
"Do you want wine?"
The boss smiled and asked Su Wen.
"Let's have a drink. ”
"Then you'll have to wait, the wine hasn't been delivered yet. ”
“......”
Su Wen suddenly felt that the boss's smile was a little underwhelming.
Can't even prepare wine, so it's embarrassing to call it a tavern?
However, Su Wen didn't wait too long, he cut a piece of meat steak, and a small cart stopped outside the door of the tavern, and a teenager dressed as an adventurer opened the door curtain of the tavern.
"Boss, deliver wine. ”
This is a man somewhere between youth and teenager, and judging by his sleek chin, he can be called a teenager. Age, about the same as Barot.
The boy's skin was a little dark and rough, but he had an optimistic smile on his face, which could easily raise his first impression.
Without saying a word, the tavern owner walked over and handed over the formalities with the boy. After the tavern owner confirmed that the wine was fine, he nodded to the boy.
Immediately afterwards, the boy pulled the cart closer, brought the barrels in one by one, and then in a corner, moved the empty barrels out again.
Looking at the wine delivery worker dressed as an adventurer, Su Wen remembered the "only person who stood and drank and wore a long robe." Then he smiled and continued to savor the unpleasant dinner. One bite at a time, the salty and dry taste stimulated the mouth, making Su Wen feel alive.
After the boy finished moving, he rubbed his hands a little bit and paced to the front desk, and the boss raised his eyelids and glanced at it, and asked if it was done.
Then the boy nodded again and again, and pointed to the place where the wine was kept.
The boss got up slightly, glanced at the wine barrel, then nodded, took out his wallet, took out a brand new banknote, put it on the table, and then opened the drawer at the front desk, took out a handful of copper coins, counted them one by one, and piled them on top of the banknotes.
In this place, cash is used much more frequently than paper money, and a large number of monster materials are traded, and even gold is directly used as an exchange.
Su Wen noticed that when the young man enthusiastically accepted the payment, he revealed the obvious black rope on his wrist.
Black Rope Will?
Su Wen was a little dumbfounded.
Immediately reacted, this seems to be the base camp of the Black Rope Society, Wentiny's brother, the uncle of Warrent, the Duke of Snow Castle, the lord here, and an important person in the Black Rope Society.
However, how could the notorious organization of the Black Rope Club recruit such a wine delivery worker whose actual level is not even as good as Marlena's?
Thinking of his adventurous dress, Su Wen believes that this is probably a popular culture among local teenagers.
The boy put the money in a dilapidated looking wallet, put it away closely, patted it again, said goodbye to the boss, and walked out the door.
He's done this one, and he's ready to go to the next.
And the boss also took a cup from the bar, released a glass of crystal rose red liquid from the barrel, and then walked towards Su Wen.
Su Wen's wine came.
Su Wen, who thought that he was about to taste the fine wine of Markwei, was scolded by a shout outside the door, which attracted his attention.
Along with this shouting, there was the clatter of barrels rolling to the ground.
Su Wen looked out - the boy who delivered the wine seemed to have accidentally bumped into a strong man dressed as an adventurer when he was pushing the cart out.
The strength of the strong man is not high, only about the first level of gold, but when he saw that he bumped into him was a small wine delivery worker who had not grown all his hair, he still showed his majesty as a gold-level master.
The diners in the bar seemed to be used to this kind of thing, and after a glance, they stopped paying attention. The boss first served the wine to Su Wen, then sighed and went to the door.
After all, it was an accident that happened at the door of his store, and he still had to fulfill the rights and obligations of the shopkeeper.
Su Wen picked up the wine glass and shook the liquid in the glass, he didn't have any research on the wine in this world, he just looked very knowledgeable and swayed, and his attention was also focused on the door.
There was a lot of noise, and the content was probably just the constant apology of the boy who sent the drink, the aggressiveness of the adventurer who was hit, and the kind words of the shopkeeper.
However, this adventurer has a bit of a stalking in it.
"If you don't compensate Uncle and me for a barrel of wine today, you don't want these barrels!"
The price of a barrel of wine ranges from a few dozen copper to a few dozen silver, and the cost of an empty barrel is nearly fifty copper.
The little worker just made a trip just now, and he only earned about a silver.
Even if he has the strength of the top gold level and is about to enter platinum, this tavern owner does not have the attitude that a strong person should have.
Ordinary bullies bully......
Su Wen stood up, picked up his wine glass, and came to the door of the tavern.
In other stories, the plot that will appear in the first ten chapters is about to be encountered after waking up for so long, which makes Su Wen still a little surprised.
It happened to happen, why don't you take care of it?
Su Wen walked in front of the adventurer under the puzzled eyes of several people, and without saying a word, with a flick of his wrist, he poured this glass of wine that had not yet been touched on the adventurer's face.
