Chapter 29 Come here because of fame
"Have you heard? Someone saw this waiter fight two rounds in the death arena!"
"Two games in a row? With one waiter? How is that possible!"
"You two have heard about it too? It is said that there is a cheater who won hundreds of purple crystal coins in the casino!"
On Monday, the entrance of the Underworld Tavern was already full of people before dawn.
As for why, in addition to the delicious food, there are also the mysterious cats that recently appeared in Jincheng, causing a stir everywhere in the city.
Some said that a thief had appeared, stealing from all the major mansions and even the guard camps where the strongest men gathered. Others said that a battle master had appeared, winning consecutive victories in the deathmatch arena.
There are also super con men who are invincible in the casinos, and in this city, the place with the most cat people is the Underworld Tavern.
But even so, everyone was just there to watch the fun. Want to cause trouble? The Flame Cloud logo on the door was no joke. No matter what, you had to think twice.
Because there are rumors that even Mr. Aaron has come to eat there!
Many people scoffed at it as a rumor, but there was one point that everyone agreed on, and that was the bodyguard beside the old man - the legend of the death arena, Shadow Tiger!
Been in and out of the pub on weekends!
The background of the pub owner is indeed thought-provoking.
Among the crowd, there were a considerable number of girls, all of them dressed gorgeously. People who didn't know them would think they were putting on a fashion show. Naturally, everyone knew what they were doing.
But no one had any objections. Although the tavern was full of orcs, they must have extraordinary backgrounds and identities. Many of them allowed their daughters to come over, which seemed to be a test.
Inside the tavern, a man with a unsteady gait walked out from behind the red door.
"Ah~, I can't stand it anymore. I've been studying magic all night. No wonder you magicians have short lives..." Xu Heng yawned. He was tired of staying in the basement and was walking to the door to open it.
He didn't leave the basement throughout the whole week except to prepare meals.
The kids were probably happy they didn't run into him that night.
"You are studying all kinds of strange spells. You have the nerve to say that you have almost studied all the first-level spells. No one is as weird as you!" Julie complained, "But I have to say that you have the spirit of research of a traditional wizard."
"That's it..." Xu Heng was sleepy. When he opened the door, he didn't see the bright sunshine, but a crowd of people. "Huh? Am I dazzled?"
"Grab a seat! Otherwise it will be gone!" Someone in the crowd shouted.
It was as if a handful of feed was scattered on the coast, and countless seagulls flew over. Seeing the overwhelming crowd coming towards him, Xu Heng ran away.
I have to say that the fourth-level demon has a good physique. With a few big strides, he came to the front desk and naturally did the "King Kong jump" in parkour, then rolled into the kitchen.
"It's over! A bloody fight! A bloody fight!" Xu Heng's hands were shaking before he even started cooking. "No, we have to get our two apprentices over here tomorrow. We can't let them practice anymore! Let's fight now!"
Soon, the sound of money being thrown outside and the notes passed by the elemental slime through the crack in the door were like waves on the sea, continuous.
"Hurry!" Xu Heng hurriedly picked it up and started the slime, wishing he had a few more hands. "Julie! Can you transform? Help me!"
"Hahaha! Xu Heng, you're so funny! I can't help you!" Julie laughed wildly in her mind.
"Just wait for me! You are laughing now! I will throw the quilt containing you into the slime and shake it to the point of ecstasy!" Xu Heng's hands kept moving and he had already created an illusion.
"Wait, the girl you fooled is here too. Oh, she's on duty. I didn't expect your cooking skills to be so good that the city has to send out guards to maintain order. If I had a physical body, I'd really like to try it..."
"Humph! Even if you get pregnant by then, I won't do it for you!"
……
At the entrance of the tavern, three teams of guards came on horseback, as they had received a notice that the streets here were blocked and there were suspected conflicts.
Firstly, I didn't expect that there would be a large group of people queuing in front of the pub, and the cause of the conflict was also shocking.
Two men, one tall and one short, one fat and one thin, were fighting in the team. Clara, wearing dazzling armor, dismounted and led her men to stop them. She recognized that they were a pair of gourmet rivals in the city.
I could only hear two people fighting and arguing: "Curry beef brisket is the best way to cook beef!"
"You're talking nonsense! The tomato brisket is the real thing! You don't know anything!"
"You two! Please stop!" Clara went up and pulled the two gourmets to the sides with great force, scolding them. "What you are doing will cause trouble for Boss Xu, please don't affect other people's business!"
When the two gourmets heard what Clara said, although they were still unconvinced, they all respected food and had even more respect for the people who made the food, so they went back to the line and lined up properly.
"Captain! The ladies over there are fighting! It's hard for the male guards to stop them, and they are all nobles, so it's hard for the sisters to intervene. We're all waiting for you to go over!" Just after he had stopped a dispute, his adjutant stepped forward anxiously and said.
"Ladies fighting? Or nobles? Are there nobles like this?" Clara was surprised, but she still moved her feet and hurried over. With her status, no matter who she was, she still had to save face. "Then you go and separate the people who are fighting over there because of cutting in line, I'll take care of them! Make sure to restore order!"
Before leaving, Clara did not forget to issue orders in order to achieve the fastest efficiency.
When we got to the middle of the line, we found out the reason for the congestion. It turned out that everyone was watching a group of rich girls who usually acted high and mighty and claimed to be graceful ladies, pulling each other's hair with all their dignity, and no one dared to stop them for fear of offending them.
There were actually several people fighting with each other, and for different reasons.
First wave: "Nolan said you have beautiful eyes, so he likes you? He also said my skin is good! He massaged me for longer!"
"Liar! Nolan likes my eyes, so he kept staring at me while preparing the food! This is love!"
"You are the liar!"
"You are!"
Clara was speechless, and she couldn't use brute force to pull, or her hair would be damaged. She could only say tactfully, "You two, do you think Mr. Nolan would still like any of you if he saw you were so unladylike?"
Taking advantage of every opportunity is the best way to resolve conflicts.
"Um……"
"Forehead……"
The two daughters glared at each other, thought for a moment, and then let go of each other tacitly.
"Humph, today I will prove that Nolan likes me!"
"Stop kidding yourself! I'm ahead of you!"
Although a new dispute arose later, it did not lead to physical violence. Clara's words were like a tight ring around their necks.
Well, let's go to the next wave quickly. When we take a look, wow, there are three people entangled together in a triangle of confrontation, and they all hold short daggers in their hands, which are usually equipped by noble families.
There were six gloves lying on the ground, and judging from the situation, it was undoubtedly a "ladies' showdown".
The three parties stared at each other with wide eyes, as if they were enemies.
Their respective bodyguards stood outside the circle, helpless and could only stare at each other. There was nothing they could do except to circle away those who wanted to further besiege them.
They might be discussing privately whether they should kidnap the person and run away as soon as the young lady rushes towards the other party, but they will definitely be very angry...
As soon as Clara arrived, she decisively walked to the middle of the triangle, making the bodyguards see her as a savior and secretly praise her as "a heroine!"
Clara raised her arms and asked loudly, "What's the matter, you three? Why are you fighting here?"
Private duels are allowed in Jincheng, and Vivian cannot stop them directly, but if the three daughters of the rich families kill each other, something big will definitely happen in the city, and she must avoid it.
"They both said Nolan was being fake and cool!"
"How dare they say March isn't handsome!"
"I like the cute little Kaven, but he actually scolded me for making copper! He's already in his twenties!"
hiss--
It was a headache. It was just a headache. She had to defend her favorite tavern waiter. However, because she was more "familiar" with the tavern, Clara immediately said:
"The cat people in the tavern are all brothers, and they all have a good relationship. If they knew that you killed each other for their brothers, would they be happy? Why don't you protect them together!"
This kind of talk about forming alliances made the three daughters stop moving.
"Yes! Let's support them together!"
Well, we were enemies just now, but now we’ve become good sisters.
But just as Clara was about to leave and go to the rest of the team to organize order, someone said, "Are they really all brothers? All eight of them are so handsome, why is it that only the boss looks so ordinary? Although the food is delicious..."
"You can't just focus on appearance! Soul and wisdom should be... um..." Clara turned around and retorted subconsciously, but she scared the three daughters at once. Only then did she realize her mistake. "Haha, what I mean is, you should also explore their talents, right... haha..."
"Yes! Miss Clara! Then you like that waiter! It's Nolan, right?"
"It must be March! March is very talented! He knows everything about astronomy and geography!"
"Kavin! Kavin sings really well!"
Seeing that another argument was about to break out, Clara could only interrupt awkwardly, saying that she had something else important to do, and retreated decisively.
But she understood why they lost their temper with each other.
Could it be that I was bewitched? But Soma said that male succubi can't bewitch... And I, I like it... No! Impossible! I like it... No no no!
I admire Boss Xu because of his deep thinking and sense of responsibility in leading eight brothers!
He shook his head. His current job was to maintain order. He could also help Xu Heng prevent the tavern's reputation from getting worse. If blood was splattered in front of the door, people in the city would definitely have something against him.
It would also be bad to give it to someone who might be jealous of the pub's business.
This is maintained for a whole morning. There is an endless stream of people, long queues, and the aroma wafts from the pub, which continues to "seduce" passers-by.
The diners who had eaten and drunk their fill were still praising the food, making those still waiting in line drool.
The three teams of guards still maintained order, but because there were too many people there were frictions from time to time and they had to leave at all costs. The horses they rode on had grass to eat when they were hungry, but they had no choice when they were hungry.
I didn’t even have breakfast! And I’m standing guard at the door of such a delicious restaurant! It’s hell-level torture!
Just then, a human waiter came out with two plates of food in his hands, and another one came out behind him with drinks. They walked around and made people salivate every time they passed by, and Clara was no exception.
If she could have a bite of it now, it would be heaven, she thought.
"Hey! Waiter over there! Will you sell the food in your hand? I'll pay twice as much!" Someone in the line also shouted, the tone was wet and slippery, and there was probably saliva in his mouth.
"Come to my side! I'll pay three times as much!"
But after a while, the whole team was bidding.
But Clara knew it was useless, because there had been many times when many people, relying on their status or wealth, wanted to cut in line or reserve a seat, but were always rejected.
Those who wanted to take action or threaten were stopped by Clara - not only because of her identity, but also because of the flame cloud symbol on the door - and were scolded by a stubborn person who came out of nowhere and shouted "Everyone is equal in front of food!"
The pub's actions also made many people who had been waiting in line for a long time feel relieved.
Sure enough, the waiters all turned their heads and continued to walk around, looking for something. They turned their heads and made eye contact with Clara, then strode towards her.
"Is that Miss Clara?" the waiter asked as he approached.
"Um...right..." Clara was confused. The food in the waiter's hand made her dizzy and she wanted to snatch it away.
"My boss asked me to give this to you. He asked me to express my gratitude to you and your colleagues for protecting the stability and peace of Jincheng over the weekend." The waiter nodded and handed the meal to Clara.
At this moment, whether it was touching, respect, or some positive emotion, it all burst out from my chest.
Through the waiter in front of him, he saw many other waiters walking out of the pub, holding meals in their hands and handing them to his flattered teammates.
She also found that what she had in her hands was obviously much richer, and she was moved.
The waiters were about to go back when the people in the line started to complain, "What do you mean? They're not in line! Why give it to them?"
"Yes! Yes!"
Many people are dissatisfied now.
So, the leading waiter, who was also the front desk staff and served the meal to Vivian, said loudly to everyone, "Our boss said that this is a free meal to thank the guards who have been maintaining the safety of Jincheng for many years. From now on, all guards can come and eat for free!
The reason why we specially gave them out today is that without their hard work in maintaining order in the morning, the tavern's business would probably be affected by various conflicts, and you wouldn't be able to queue up peacefully to eat. Shouldn't we reward them just for today?"
The waiter's tone sounded a bit stiff, but his voice was loud and full of energy, which immediately suppressed the voices in the line. Moreover, his voice was well-reasoned and made it impossible to refute.
But the people who were most touched by these words were not the customers in the queue, but the guards.
For a long time, the stingy merchants in Jincheng have never been kind to the guards who are supported by the taxes they pay to deal with their various illegal activities.
The behavior in the pub today, even the unprecedented oath, was simply the first time in history.
It's not that the good impression is full, it's the respect! It's bursting!
For a store, it is not only about the products themselves, but also the brand image is equally important, and this trick is simply the ultimate killer!
In the kitchen, Xu Heng was still cooking with sweat all over his forehead, and he had to use one of his slime tentacle to wipe his sweat.
Julie said admiringly in his mind: "You are amazing! Delivering food! I was right, you are a business genius!"
"What? Shouldn't they be rewarded for helping us look after the place?" Xu Heng didn't know what Julie meant.
In his opinion, aren't guards the same as police? It's only natural for him to do this. Clara even helped take care of Calvin!
"Xu Heng, are you really the biological child of the Abyss?"
"Then it could be your child?"
