Chapter 18: The Boss Runs Away
Looking at Kai Erwen's expression of enjoyment, Roy was a little speechless, but also a little curious.
"Is it really that good?"
However, after taking a quick bite, Roy's face froze.
Good guys, you call this wine?
It's a little fragrant, a little sweet, a little spicy, a little bitter, a little sour, and even a little stinky......
Roy knew that there were some people who liked to spice their wines, and he could understand how to show off their wealth.
After all, spices are not something that everyone can afford. Especially in the Case Empire, because the production of spices is all imported, the people who can afford to drink spiced red wine are all very rich.
But even if you add spices, you add so many different, even conflicting spices at once, isn't it a bit outrageous?
To use an inappropriate analogy, Roy felt that the taste of this red wine was even stranger than that of Chinese medicine.
I can't afford to provoke it.
If he hadn't paid attention to the image, it is estimated that he would have vomited directly.
"How's it taste?"
Kelvin took another sip and asked Roy.
"Hmm...... Not bad. ”
Roy said with a clear conscience.
"Haha, if you like it, drink more, anyway, don't want money, after today, next time it will be next year! Hurry up and finish it, let's try another ......"
"Huh? This mug is quite beautiful. ”
Roy hurriedly changed the subject, for fear that Kelvin would ask someone to pour him another glass.
"Hey, that's a must! These are all cups made by the Rainbow Company, and it is said that there are thousands of cups here! ”
Kelvin gently stroked the colored glass in his hand and explained with some exaggeration.
Glass was accidentally made two or three hundred years ago, and it once impacted the status of natural crystal. However, it was later discovered that glass and crystal were not the same, and it was only after they could be distinguished that the price of crystal slowly rose back.
However, natural crystals are so rare and expensive that only the noble royal family can afford to use them. The emergence of glass has allowed people to find a substitute for crystal, and in a short period of time, glass has almost swept the world.
Some companies, families, and even countries have risen because they have seized the opportunity of glass, and Rainbow Company is one of them, and they are especially good at making stained glass with various color mixes.
Roy looked at the stained glass wine glass in his hand, and couldn't help but be a little stunned, this Countess Charlie is really rich. Moreover, the glass of this company really dares to shout the price, so expensive!
Roy sighed in his heart.
Kelvin took Roy for a long time, and Kelvin tasted all kinds of wine. As for Roy, he is naturally not sensitive.
"Boom-"
Suddenly, a bell rang.
"It's time for lunch and I love black pudding! Let's go, go to luncheon. ”
The two entered the restaurant together.
Rows of long tables were filled with all kinds of food, and in addition to some of the dark dishes Roy had seen, there were many that he had never seen before.
Roy came over with some regrets.
The two of them found a corner to sit down, Roy was Kelvin on his left, and on his right was a burly male bull orc, who seemed to have come alone.
"Hello! My name is Bart. ”
The Bull Orc didn't show any habit of looking down on humans, and greeted Roy and Kelvin politely.
"Hello. Roy. ”
Roy glanced at the other man, looking at his old clothes and the eyes that kept staring at the food, and suddenly felt that he and Kelvin were the same kind of people.
Sure enough, as soon as it started, this man and orc launched a charge against the table full of delicacies.
Worthy of being a bull orc known for his strength and food, Bart's mouth is like a storm whirlpool, and all kinds of food are not refused, and most of the food is destroyed in a short time. The gobbling up Kelvin is much more Sven compared to it.
Seeing this, Roy very thoughtfully pushed the food in front of him to Bart.
"I'm not very hungry."
Seeing that Bart looked at him with some doubts, Roy suddenly shrugged his shoulders and said.
Bart suddenly showed a grateful look. Seeing that Roy really didn't look good, he was not polite.
Roy, on the other hand, was a little bored and munched on a piece of white bread, observing the people around him.
The people who eat in the restaurant all look similar, but they still have their own small circles, such as Kelvin Bart, who are obviously here to eat and drink, so they all sit in relatively remote positions.
And those who come to talk about business and expand their contacts are sitting in a relatively open place with a relatively wide field of vision, which is convenient for them to find their goals, and it is convenient for them to find them.
As for the long table in the middle, the largest one, there is no one to sit on
This is the exclusive seat of the Countess Charles and some big names, and today's lunch, the Countess Charlie did not show up as expected.
Don't look at the fact that there are so many people now, but in fact, there are not many people, because the drinking party lasts for three days, and the third day is the most crowded time. Countess Charlie usually appears at this time.
As for the first two days, everyone should eat and drink, and Countess Charles was still very generous.
Lunch lasted for two hours, Kelvin had stopped an hour earlier, and Roy was a little disdainful, he thought that Kelvin could eat more, and his feelings were not as big as his own meal.
And Bart is more in line with Roy's perception of orcs, the food in front of the three of them, except for Roy who ate a piece of white bread, Kelvin ate a small part, and most of the rest went into Bart's stomach alone.
"I'm full, I'm full, I'm really full this time!"
Bart wiped his mouth and said contentedly.
Roy was a little skeptical about the truth of what he said, after all, he had said it the same thing an hour earlier.
Kelvin drank a little too much and went to the bathroom. Bart said to Roy with a grateful face:
"Thank you very much, Mr. Roy and Mr. Kelvin for their generosity, and of course Countess Charles...... It's been a long time since I've had a full meal......"
Roy was a little curious.
People are also particular about issuing invitations, and the people who can come here are not rich or expensive, but at least they are also petty bourgeoisie, how can there be people who can't eat enough? Could it be that Bart really got involved?
As a result, it really is.
I heard Bart whisper in some distress:
"I secretly told you that in fact, this invitation was originally our boss's, but our boss ran away...... I can't eat a bunch of messes...... I haven't eaten in days! When I was cleaning my boss's office yesterday, I found this invitation, and I couldn't help it......"
Speaking of which, Bart scratched his head a little embarrassed, after all, it was disgraceful to get in.
"What does your boss do?"
Roy asked casually.
"Candy sellers."
