Chapter 39 39. Movements in Arethusa
Brother, give me a room, I have to stay here for a day.
Okay sir, one Oren, we will also give you a dinner and a breakfast.
.Oren? You have to pay in Oren for a nights stay here?!
In front of the counter of Yinlu Tavern, a man wearing a hood and cloak seemed to be choked, and then tilted his head to confirm to the bartender that he heard correctly.
The bartender with a towel on his shoulders seemed to have seen a lot.
There was no wave in his tone.
"Sir, this is the Yinlu Tavern. We are the best in Goss Velen, and there are even mages staying here on weekdays. You also know that no mages will leave broken coins in their wallets. Only Oren.
The bartender couldn't see the upper half of the guest's face, but the twitching at the corners of his mouth was obvious.
"Oh~" A meaningful drawl sounded in Lan En's mind, "I'm hosting the Master. Sir, this asking price is normal! How about we find another company?"
Mentos has been dissatisfied with the profession of demon hunter for a long time, and whenever he has nothing to do, he always gets angry at the Master, who is also from the extraordinary system.
To be honest, Lan En also wants to be a magician, otherwise the auxiliary function of the magic seal would not be developed so smoothly.
Who doesnt want to face thousands of enemy troops, flick their fingers and rain down fire and meteors, and then clear the battlefield without even a speck of mud on their clothes?
It is quite normal for melee professions to wallow in the mud.
But the problem isnt that it cant be done!
When Lann pressed the golden Oren coin on the counter, the bartender saw that his knuckles were turning white from the force.
Hey, look at you, we feel sorry for you, so we can find another one.
Mentos is still in a weird mood.
Lan En gritted his teeth.
I also want to change, but...do you think I am the kind of person who turns around and leaves after washing my hair at the barber shop when I hear the price? !
Oh shit! My **** pride!
Mentos, shut up!
Then you promise not to sing again on the road!!
The conversation came to an abrupt end here.
Lan quickly took his dinner plate from the bartender's hand and walked to the table in the tavern hall without saying a word.
As if nothing happened.
Its just a strange yin and yang, you can bear it!
The dinner at Yinlu Tavern was indeed worthy of his reputation in Gos Velen.
A glass of beer, fresh fried sea fish, seasoned mashed potatoes, oyster mushroom cream soup, and a large piece of bread as the staple food.
This city is the trade distribution center of the entire Willen and is also the largest consumer market.
It naturally brings together all kinds of Willens agricultural products and recipes.
This is the best meal Lan En has had since he came to this world.
Finally, I got to experience the local food culture.
While he chewed slowly, he listened to the conversation in the tavern with his ears.
Its written like this in novels. Isnt the tavern well-informed?
But what Lan En didn't expect was that what was originally just a joke would actually yield some results.
On the table behind Lan En, two well-dressed businessmen were sitting opposite each other, each holding a glass of wine.
One voice is slightly high-pitched, the other voice is like phlegm in the throat.
It seemed like they were playing cards in the middle, because Lan En heard the sound of many cardboard pieces being placed on the table.
A high-pitched voice: "Ah ha! As soon as my rain card comes out, your pile of siege equipment will just fall down, and you will only have seven points left!"
Spitting voice: "Okay, okay, who knew you would put so many weather cards in your hand?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of coins sliding on the solid wood table was heard.
Lan En, who was eating, suddenly took a big bite of bread. Damn it, two big businessmen, the gambling capital of a game of cards is thirty oren? !
Xiao Qianqian's voice penetrated deeply into Lan En's bones!
But the next moment, the two businessmen chatted while shuffling the cards, which cheered up the young man again from the frustration of the gap between the rich and the poor.
Thin voice: "How is your vegetable business? Aretusa is closed. I remember supplying them every day. I am the biggest player in your business."
Vomiting voice: "Yes, yes, those sorceresses can eat precious exotic fruits as snacks, don't you make money from them? But to be honest, the impact of the closure of Arethusa College on my business is not that big Horrible, why dont I still play cards with you here?
The businessman with a shrill voice smiled and said nothing.
Dont believe it, even if those sorceresses are in a closed academy, they still have to eat and poop? My fruits and vegetables are still sent in, but they can no longer bid based on market fluctuations like before.
The phlegm-prone businessman took a sip of wine to soothe his throat and continued.
But its not without its benefits. The prices of vegetables and fruits are highly volatile. Now I cant sell the expensive things in the market at a high price, but I can sell the cheap things at the same price as before. Generally speaking, the fluctuations should be stable.
"Then you know." The tone of the high-pitched voice was a little tentative, "That's why Arethusa closed the academy?"
When Lan En heard this, his arm seemed to accidentally knock over his beer glass.
The yellow beer flowed all over the table.
He cursed quietly in a low voice, then sat down on the table behind him with the dinner plate in hand.
The two businessmen glanced at him warily, but seeing that the seats were not close together, they probably couldn't hear anything, so they didn't say anything.
Its just that their voices were deeper.
I heard that someone was missing in the college.
"Is it embarrassing?" The high-pitched voice was slightly surprised, "Is this worthy of sealing off the academy? There are quite a few mages in their academy who have scrapped their studies due to magic accidents, right?"
Its different this time! The spitting businessman lowered his voice while dealing cards, but this measure was of no use to Lan En.
"You also know what kind of person this president of Arethusa is. She cares about her students, so she went out to find someone in person, but after this search, she didn't even hear from the principal! There is suspicion in the college that someone is targeting her. The academy, then the academy was closed.
The principals are all gone?! The high-pitched voice was so surprised that he even had to raise his wine glass and pretend to drink to cover his open mouth.
That Lady Margarita? Thats one of the most powerful sorcerers in the world!
Who says its not the case? Otherwise, how could there be such a big movement in Arethusa?
The phlegm merchant also took a sip.
The conversation ends here.
Perhaps it was because of Lan En's table change that the two businessmen were really focused on the card table.
All that's left is small talk.
Lan En is not dissatisfied with hearing only this part.
This matter really had little to do with him. It was just that the young man wanted to collect more information out of a lingering sense of crisis in his heart.
There is a businessman who relies on the college for a living. He is drinking and playing cards right now. He has nothing to do with the college, so why should he worry about it?
But the conversation was not fruitless.
Lan En knew that Yinlu Tavern had purchased a new batch of wine, which was produced in the Soden area and was called Soden Mountain Triple Mead.
I heard that honey is added three times during the fermentation process before it leaves the wine cellar.
It doesnt matter whether its real honey or just sugar. Anyway, Lan En took out an Oren without blinking this time.
I filled up my two water bags and had an extra cup ready to be taken to the guest room upstairs.
