Outworld: Rise of an Industrial Empire
Chapter 74
Garcia's Tavern
Eiffel stood outside the door and looked into the distance, tiptoe to look at the corner of the road whenever someone turned in, but she always lowered her eyes in disappointment.
"Eiffel, he hasn't been here for two days, are you so in love?"
Suddenly a voice came from his ear, Eiffel was startled, turned his head, and found that his father was exaggeratedly learning to look into the distance.
"Father—"
Eiffel stomped his foot in shame and walked into the tavern.
There was no one in the dimly lit tavern, and therefore no candles were lit, only sunlight poured in through the windows and doors.
"Anyway, Charlie, why haven't they been here for the past two days?"
Eiffel's mother came down from the attic and asked the two, Eiffel's father sat on the chair and said
, "It should be that His Royal Highness Su Zheng came down yesterday, so they didn't come." "
Eiffel's mother
" No one is in the tavern now except for a few of them..."
yes... I don't know how long I'll last... But we're still fine, at least we can still live, and we still have a home!"
"Now we don't have to pay taxes, we can use as much as we earn, although it's not much, but with this low-priced food, we can barely get by.....
" "Yesterday I saw him riding a horse on the street..."Eiffel
said with his fists clenched and a on his face.
A smile appeared on the corner of Eiffel's father's mouth, and he looked at
Eiffel and smiled: "Oh, it would be great if Eiffel could marry him!"
Charlie's appearance changed the inherent impression of this family of soldiers, generally speaking, the soldiers that civilians have the most contact with are city guards, although these city guards are also ordinary civilians, but because they undertake the task of maintaining law and order, they also have the flavor of 'Jiupin Sesame Official'.
They kept their voices low in the face of the nobles, but when they faced the common people, who were also commoners, they put on a posture of superiority.
As a result, the security problems that arise in the city-state are often caused by these soldiers.
And Charlie's gentlemanly demeanor and never-ending discipline amazed the whole family.
"But what if he dies on the battlefield one day..."
Eiffel's mother picked up Eiffel's father's words, and her words made Eiffel's father and daughter stunned.
Eiffel's father touched the beard on his face and thought that he had only thought of the good side of Charlie, but he had ignored it.
"Mother—"
Eiffel pouted as she looked at her mother.
"Guess what I saw?"
Eiffel's brother rushed into the tavern, startling the three of Eiffel.
"What's the matter
, Bill?" Eiffel's father asked suspiciously, and Bill looked excitedly
, "I just saw someone gathering on the street, so I went over to take a look, and found that it was a notice issued by His Royal Highness Su Zheng!"
"What notice?"
It probably means that everyone is having a bad time now
, His Highness Su Zheng already knows, and His Highness Su Zheng promised that in the future, there will be endless bread and endless milk on the table of each of us!" "What? Really? The Holy Lord and Goddess are on top, it is really unbelievable! He actually cares so much about us..."
Have you forgotten that there were many beggars on the side of the road before? Now they are all gathered on the side of West Street, and His Highness's army is there every day to distribute relief food! There was a queue of people every day. "
Yes, I almost forgot, although I heard that there are sawdust in it, but if you really don't have anything to eat, you can still go and eat relief food! This lord is really different!" "
I remember Charlie said before that when His Royal Highness Su Zheng comes down, our lives will definitely be better
!" "Hey, I think I heard you talking about me!" As
soon as Eiffel finished speaking, several figures walked into the tavern, and it was Charlie the Grenadier in the front.
Looking at the somewhat dim tavern without candles, Charlie scratched his head suspiciously and asked
, "Hey, isn't it open today?" "
No, no, it's open, it's just that no one is so the lights aren't on, Bill, go and light the candles! Eiffel, entertain me, I'll go drink!"
Seeing Charlie and his party coming, Eiffel's father immediately laughed, and hurriedly beckoned a few people to sit down, and the family immediately got busy.
"I'm tired today! I've been posting leaflets for most of the day, and I'm finally disbanded! I'm going to have two more drinks
!" Charlie and his comrades found a place to sit down, and then Charlie said to Eiffel's father:
"Mr. Garcia, please get some of the most expensive and best wine here
!" "Hey Charlie, how much bonus did you get? Don't sell it!" "Hehe
, no more, no less, a full 240 copper coins!"
"My Holy Lord Goddess, you are four times more than me!"
"Hey, you've been transferred to the third battalion for a few days, and you've taken so much?"
What is the meaning of recharging? That day
, I was in the same line with the commander of the third battalion! I am still too little for 240 copper coins!""What 240 copper coins?" Eiffel's father came over with a jar of wine, and after hearing Charlie's words, he asked with surprise and doubt, listening to Charlie's tone, 240 copper coins is not too little! This is a full year's income even in the most stable years, when the tavern was the most popular!
We have all contributed to this raid on the king, and after His Highness came down, he rewarded us heavily, and his 240
copper coins are equivalent to 2 years of training allowance!""You are also a lot, a full 60 copper coins
! It's only been a month!"Indeed, it's still a high combat allowance! I participated in the battle last time I fought in Ted City, so I went for a trip and came down, and it was only 2 copper coins!"
"That's it, but although the training allowance is not high, I eat fish and meat every day, and I don't have to be afraid."
"It's as if we're scared now, aren't we big fish and big meat now?"
Charlie's comrades-in-arms said one by one, and the Eiffel family was stunned, they knew that Charlie and these people usually made generous moves, but they didn't expect their salaries to be so high!
Those soldiers in the past, although they bullied civilians every day, not only did they have no money to take, but they also had to be angry every day, which is why they always vented their grievances on civilians.
