3. Undercurrents
[Woo...... There are so many unfamiliar faces, is it because of the trade rally a few days later? 】
In fact, since noon, Lynn has barely gotten any rest. Today's customer flow is far beyond Lin's imagination, and even a few girls who originally worked in this store are a little smacked at such a huge customer flow.
Perhaps due to the huge workload and busyness, Lin unconsciously forgot the shyness when she first put on the maid costume. In the eyes of several other girls, although a certain Lori is petite, but the body seems to contain infinite physical strength, when they have been working for hours in a row, they are a little tired, Lin took the initiative to share a lot of the work that originally belonged to them. Although they all knew in their hearts that Lin was mostly going for those tips, but everyone had gained a lot today, and they were tired at this time, so they naturally didn't care about Lin's somewhat reckless behavior - on the contrary, Lin, who took the initiative to share the pressure of everyone, gained a lot of favor.
The diligent Lori is not something that anyone would hate.
"Did such a young child come to work at the tavern?"
"But it's a very cute child, but it's a pity that he's too young......
"Hey...... That kid hasn't stopped for three hours in a row, is this kind of physical strength really a child?"
......
[Although I know that my appearance is relatively young now, can you uncles not repeat it over and over again...... And that uncle, you've been sitting in the tavern for three hours, and the other seats have changed two or three times, aren't you ready to leave?]
Luckily, however, some of the favourite episodes did not happen - perhaps because most of the guests were businessmen who were heading to the trade fair, and they were relatively stable, although many of them would make fun of the cute hostesses, but only to a minimum, and there was no outrageous situation. As for Lynn's side, the guy who flirts with young Lori must have the courage to be treated by the people around him with the eyes of scum...... I don't know if it's because they are all middle-aged men who support their families, Lin also received the most tips, and everyone's attitude towards her was also very gentle.
"Speaking of which......" Lin finally found a free time to rest, and looked at a certain figure at the bar with dissatisfaction, "You can be so relaxed for what wet sauce you have!"
Aisha was not wearing the original maid outfit, and out of some emotional resistance, she made a very serious suggestion to Anhans. Under some pressure, Anhans finally agreed to Aisha's "reasonable request...... At the end of the day, Aisha changed into a hostess suit - and she got rid of the "Forest Fairy" name very smoothly.
"So, how useful it is to acquire some useful skills......
Aisha ostentatiously fiddles with the bartending skills she has learned from the palace - although she is not a master who has been immersed in it for many years, Aisha has her extraordinary mental strength and understanding, and the quality of the wine is not inferior to the precise proportions and standard steps. At least, a certain man who can only pour wine and can't mix wine has been taken away from the task of being able to brush his presence at the bar in the future, and has been driven to the kitchen......
It's strange to say, it's obviously not the style of a men's beauty, but with her intellect and art, Aisha doesn't have much sense of disobedience when she wears the clothes of a hostess. In their spare time, the eyes of several girls in the shop were thrown to the bar from time to time, secretly watching Aisha elegantly pair up with wine.
[It's worthy of wet sauce!I can only rely on my own appearance to sell cuteness.,And wet sauce can perfectly take advantage of the gender gap.,Counter it with perfect movements and demeanor.,Create this strange charm that's inexplicable but completely very terrible!And the effect bonus to the same sex is unusually large!]
"By the way, what about Uncle Anhans?"
"It's still inside......" Aisha pointed to the kitchen, and a "hiss-" moan came from inside at the right time, "It's already the (9th) time that he has cut himself, although he has a deep vindictive spirit and doesn't have to worry about the guests eating their fingers in the pork chops, but if it continues, I'm afraid that even a ten-ripe steak will be complained of with a bloody smell, right?"
[If you want to say that you have nothing to do with wet sauce, I won't believe it if I beat you to death!]
Uncle Anhans, who has a deep fighting spirit, will keep cutting his fingers? Just kidding, that guy didn't cut off his own fingers after cutting off so many people's heads......
However, it's also a little dark for this Lin - who made her still have the title of "Dark Goblin"?
As he spoke, the kitchen door snapped open.
"Your Royal Highness the Princess, can't you count me wrong...... Please don't toss me anymore, the knives have been broken nine times because of this, and now there is only the last knife left. ”
“...... It turned out to be a knife?"
is worthy of being a pure master, and even cutting his fingers is different from ordinary people-Lin suddenly thought that the "hiss-" full of sadness she heard just now was actually just a lament because she felt sorry for the kitchen knife?
"But today is very abnormal, usually even if there is a trade rally, there are not so many people, if it weren't for your help this time, maybe those children would really be unbearable......
In the past, even on festivals, not many people would continue to stay in the tavern during this time. But now, the guests are pouring in almost one by one, and the tavern has basically not been idle. It was only at this moment that the continuous flow of passengers finally stopped a little.
"Oh, isn't it the same as usual?"
Perhaps Anhans only complained symbolically, but Aisha suddenly had some bad premonitions: "Almost all of the people who arrived in Bobo Town today are traveling merchants with small capitals, and according to the footsteps, they will be able to reach the city of Nazca next door tomorrow...... With four days to go until the trade fair, do you need to get there so early?"
"Hmm...... Although in previous years, there were many tourists who went to arrange in advance, but after all, there are not many, and it is indeed a bit strange to go in advance on such a large scale...... Did you find anything?"
"Of all the guests we received here today, I didn't find any caravans from the Imperial Capital. None of those customs clearance certificates were from the imperial capital. ”
Before, I still thought that the usual caravan had changed its itinerary because it was simply to prepare for a trade rally, but today, Aisha felt that something had probably happened in the imperial capital. But if it was big news such as a traffic blockade, how could there be no news coming out? And it was obviously not a change for the businessman, otherwise with the vigilance of the businessman, how could he be so calm now?
"In my opinion, it may be that there is some demand in the imperial capital, and it has cost a lot of money to sign the caravan there, right? And it is estimated that it is a big move, otherwise these traveling merchants will not go to the venue in advance to set up, right?"
Aisha said casually, but Anhans's face was not very relaxed - compared to Aisha, who didn't care about the empire at all, Anhans still cared a lot about the movements of the empire.
"Now the empire has just gone through a major upheaval, and it has been under a lot of pressure in the past two weeks......" Aisha knew what happened at that time through Lin's narration, so she was also very clear about the pressure on the empire from the surrounding forces during this time, "The current trade rally in Nazca City is undoubtedly a good outlet for the emperor, and it is estimated that the imperial capital is also planning to use this to show its attitude......, right?"
[Looks like you can't do that alone...... Hmph, a group of short-sighted guys around you, even if you can stand high and see far, what can you do? In their hearts, you are actually just a tyrant who "oppresses" them by relying on his strength, otherwise how could you make the stupid move of going to find the holy sword now? Superstitious prophecy and vain attempts to break the prophecy are the easiest path to the tragedy in the prophecy...... However, in the end, because of Io, the Holy Sword Yanyu has been firmly controlled by you, right? It can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune, at least you and your disciples will definitely not make some stupid moves. 】
Aisha couldn't help but sigh for an old man.
"Holy Sword Yan Yu...... It was recycled by the Empire some time ago. Aisha whispered a terrible secret to Anhans, who was drinking water, squirting out.
"I ...... Did I hear me right? Is it really legendary, that founding sword?"
"I'm telling you this, just to say that the smell of gunpowder in the empire and the surrounding area has been strong lately. So......" Aisha looked worriedly at the liquor in the glass in her hand, "I don't dare to say if there will be any chaos at this trade rally." After all, it is clear that there is a big move in the imperial capital, and if you want to say that it is for the air to see, I don't believe it. ”
"And what are you going to do?"
"It's all about what to do, I'm just worried about the impact this will have on my current life, and what will happen to the Empire's actions...... I didn't even plan to take care of it when I was a princess before, and even more so now it's the Speaker who needs to clean up the mess, not me. ”
Aisha said, handing the wine glass in his hand to Anhans: "The longer the wine is stored, the more mellow the taste, and the same is true of the current empire, the accumulation of thousands of years is enough to ferment those splendors into hidden evils and harms, and the longer the time, the more serious the evils will become...... The aroma of wine lingers around the beam, and it lasts for three days. How many wine worms do you think the smell of this old wine will seduce Skarza himself? And is our speaker drinking it for himself, or is he looking for those who want to drink it but can't hold it until it is opened?"
