Chapter 321
2014-08-16
The next morning, the pub.Tang En was sitting in the corner of the hall sipping ale, probably due to time constraints and not many guests. It can be seen that the tables and chairs are all newly made, and there is a faint smell of logs.
This tavern is one of the earliest storefronts in the new city. The tavern boss is called Old Wood, who was also a Grey Cloth Armed Force soldier before, and seems to have achieved the position of Captain. However, because he lost his left leg due to a battle injury, he retreated. Fortunately, he still has the brewing skills passed down from the family, so he pooled money to open this tavern.
This is also the place where Tang En comes most often, because the ale from Old Wood has a unique taste and is full of spicy taste, which is quite popular with Frey and the others. As for Tang En, I can't say I like or dislike this kind of taste. He basically comes to pay every time... bang, the wooden door of the tavern is pushed open.
"Haha, good morning, Old Wood!" A young man with freckles walked in and greeted Old Wood, who was sitting behind the wine cabinet, with a black beard.
"Good morning, Perry." Old Wood raised his eyes and smiled nodded.
After saying hello, Fei Rui glanced around and saw Tang En sitting in the corner. Spreading his hands, he walked over: "I'm just wondering, do you like the corner position so much? You sit here every time you come."
"Hehe, it's just a habit." Tang En put the table on the table The other can of wine pushed over, lightly said with a smile indifferently.
"Habit... Sounds very expert." Ferry lifted the tarpaulin from the can, and then raised his eyebrows with interest, "I'm observing, right?"
"Almost." Tang En was noncommittal and nodded, then reached out and handed over the jar.
dong! The low-quality clay pot made a dull sound as it collided. Fei Rui raised his head and took a sip, then wiped his mouth: "So you can remember everything you see?"
"Not really." Tang En shook the head.
"So..." Fei Rui tilted his head and stared into Tang En's eyes, "Let's have an appetizer to cheer up the fun... Well, how many people are there?"
"Seven." Tang En replied without the slightest hesitation.
Ferry looked left and right, shrugged: "It seems a bit simple, um, do you remember what they ordered?"
Tang En swayed his drink as if bored. Can, said plainly: "Two of the four guests came together, just drinking ale like us. The other ordered breakfast bread and a glass of wine. As for the person behind you, he asked for a can of ale and a plate of beef. Well, he should be eating the last piece of beef now."
As Tang En one after another reported what the guests ordered, Ferry's eyes gradually widened and his face was filled with strange expressions. After hearing the last sentence, he turned his head directly. There was indeed a burly man sitting behind him. Although his back was moved towards , he could still see his cheeks agitating from Fei Rui's point of view. chewing something.
After swallowing the food in his mouth, the big man raised his head and drank the last sip of wine in the can, then got up and left his seat.
"Old Wood, check out."
Ferry blinked, and there were only knives and forks on the empty plate on the next table. From the little red shredded meat, it could be seen that it was true It's definitely the beef here. Turning his head, his tone was full of disbelief, "How do you know it's the last piece?"
Ferry was staring at Tang En's eyes just now, making sure that there was no obvious movement in the eyeballs. To the other, or the memory is really good. But how did he know that the big man who was facing away from him was eating the last piece of beef?
"It's very simple." Tang En took a sip of his wine indifferently, "If you pay attention, you will know that a plate of beef in Old Wood has always been eighteen slices."
"..." Ferry opened his mouth, his face speechless. After came back to his senses, he stretched out his hand and gave a thumbs up, sighing, "Amazing, I'm over it!"
After a pause, he shook his head and continued, "Suddenly I feel that when your enemy is really It's a terrifying thing."
"hehe..." He shook his head and chuckled a few times, with no smug look on his face, and no words. In Tang En's view, this is really not something to brag about. To be honest, these are not what he wanted to remember or observe, just instinct. Or just like he chose to sit in the corner every time, it was completely out of habit.
I have to say, under the influence of the system space, Tang En has really changed a lot. Assassin's instinctive habits have been deeply branded on every inch of his skeleton and every ounce of blood.
Of course, that doesn't mean Tang En can remember everything. In complex environments, things like the ones that are not dangerous are automatically filtered out. If you want to remember again, you have to remember slowly... "Okay." After a few sips of wine, Fei Rui quickly packed up his mood, raised his head and asked, "Tell me, what is the matter with me?"
"Don't worry, you came so early and haven't eaten yet, why don't you order something to fill your stomach." Tang En's mouth curled slightly, and he waved at the counter, "Old Wood, two cheeses, two A plate of beef, a plate..." In just a few seconds, Tang En Skilled ordered a lot of things.
"Don't be so exaggerated." Ferry touched his hair and said astonished, "It's early in the morning, can you finish eating all this?"
Tang En placed it indifferently. He waved his hand: "If you can't finish eating, you can pack it. Come and drink first."
There are not many customers in the tavern, so the food is served very fast. What Tang En ordered came one after another.
After eating something, Tang En licked his lips contentedly and said, "Remember, I once said I would give you some credit."
"Of course. !" Fei Rui nodded without hesitation, said with a smile, "Although my memory is not as perverted as yours, but this kind of good thing will naturally not be forgotten... Why, is the credit coming?"
"Hehe, yes." Tang En nodded. "The chiefs decided to purchase a batch of heavy city defenses to arm the city. I recommended you. At six o'clock tomorrow morning, you will go with us."
p>This is what Luosha asked Tang En to help yesterday. This city, which was originally named Dawn City, has basically been completed in terms of the external body. Although it is a bit rushed, the next thing that must be done is to install the defense equipment. After all, no one knows when this place will be officially discovered by Titus. At that time, a war is almost inevitable.
Although more than a dozen crossbows of the Gully Bandit group were captured, this was far from enough for the city defense deployment of Dawn City. It can be said that in addition to the city wall, Dawn City now has almost no defensive power that can be relied on. It just so happened that Grey Cloth Armed Force recently made a fortune, so Luosha and the others decided to invest in the purchase. However, these things are absolutely contraband, and you can't buy them with money. The key is to find the right place. And this is Tang En's Quest.
"Ah—" Ferry opened his mouth wide in surprise, then clenched his fist excitedly, "very good, I finally have a place to play. Thank you, Tang En, I will remember this favor for a lifetime. !"
The purchase of city defense equipment is a major event, and as long as it is done well, it is definitely a great opportunity to get credit. But this is precisely because of this, a small soldier like Fei Rui who joined the Armament Logistics Department for the first time should not be eligible to join.
"My life is too long, I only want to fight for the day." Tang En squeezed his chin, pointed to the table and squinted, said with a smile, "Let's settle this account first."
p>
"I..." Fei Rui was stunned at first, then reacted immediately. Looking at the rich dishes on the table, he suddenly felt extremely bitter in his mouth, "Tang En, you smack me!"
"Tsk, don't say that." Tang En smacked his mouth and shook his finger, "I'm celebrating you, I ordered so many."
"Yeah, hehe , I should celebrate, to celebrate my official bankruptcy..."
After the words were finished, Fei Rui didn't say much anymore, he buried his head and started to eat, and the posture seemed to be that he would lose a little less after eating a little.
"Damn, eat less, I'll pack it later."
"I, I, I...wu wu wu, I swear at you, don't think about it!"
"Fuck, the plate must be on the table..."
