Building a New World
Chapter 655: Exotic Fruit
Hotel lobby.
Jia Zhengjin came to the desk and tapped his fingers gently.
"Hello guest! May I ask what you need?" The fat waiter who just stole the ale immediately greeted with a smile.
"Give me a drink and some snacks!" It's still early, Jia Zhengjin is going to sit in the lobby to observe the leisure life of humans in other worlds, especially travelers and adventurers.
"This is the menu. There is a specific price on it, just order what you want!" The fat waiter handed over a list.
A random glance, Jia Zhengjin feels big. Because he himself is not very familiar with foreign languages, the total number of recognition is not much, and then this is still handwritten, the font is very scribble. In addition to the price behind, this menu knows him, he does not know the menu.
But I'm embarrassed to say that I have limited mastery of universal characters, and I can't recognize the other person's handwriting. After thinking about it, I simply handed back the menu: "Give me a plate of the best fruit, and then give me a glass of water!" "
When he heard that he wanted the best fruit, the fat waiter's eyes lit up: "Is that rare fruit ok?"
Jia Zhengjin didn't know what the rare fruit was. He had never heard anyone mention it: "Come on! Give me a plate first!"
"With Rare Fruit, it's pretty good with ale. Should you get some ale?" the fat waiter recommended.
Jia Zhengjin shook his head: "I don't drink, water is enough!"
"Okay!" The fat waiter stretched out his hand immediately. "Rare fruit 5 silver coins per plate, water is free!"
Seeing her asking for money, Jia Zhengjin said, wouldn't he pay after eating?
Fortunately, the five silver coins were only a fraction of his money, so he didn't care.
After paying the money, the fat waiter said to him respectfully: "Guest, you choose a location first, and someone will send you the exotic fruit you ordered!"
Jia Zhengjin nodded and found an empty table in the far corner where no one was sitting.
After sitting down, he silently observed the people around the table.
"Have you heard? There have been several attacks recently, and many people who went out early in the morning or returned home at night disappeared. According to reliable information, some people have witnessed the evil Necromancer transforming living people into skeletons..."
"Oh my god! So terrible?"
"Yes! The Imperial Army has already intervened in the investigation. It is said that many mercenary regiments have also undertaken the mission. But so far, no progress has been made!"
"Have you heard of the Shambak Mercenary Corps? It is said that they have also taken this task. It has been more than a week since, and there is no news yet!"
"Will this mercenary group have been wiped out?"
"Wouldn't it all become a skeleton soldier of the Necromancer? That's terrible!"
"Hey! Some time ago, the Necromancer appeared on the side of the Xiongfeng Empire, and now there is another one in our country! What is the matter?"
"I always feel that the dark forces are slowly rising!"
"Think too much? Maybe it's just a coincidence? Although the Necromancer is not waiting to be seen, they can often hear their stories on the mainland. I think that there is no connection between the Xiongfeng Empire and our country. !"
"Anyway, it has nothing to do with us, this kind of thing is naturally handled by someone! It is said that the empire general Vincent has accepted the king's order and is fully responsible for this matter..."
The conversation of the three adventurers dressed at the table on the left caught Jia Zhengjin's attention.
"Guest, your rare fruit and water!" Just then, another slim waitress came to the table and gently put down what Jia Zhengjin ordered.
"Thank you!" Jia Zhengjin nodded to her and looked down at the fruit on the plate.
It's really a fruit I haven't seen before. It looks like a big belly five-pointed star, and then the surface is red and yellow.
Take one and put it in front of your eyes to study, and found that it can be broken apart. Inside are three small purple beads, probably the seeds of this fruit.
Jia Zhengjin, who doesn't know how to eat, turned his head to look around. As a result, no other people who ate the rare fruit hesitated and took out three purple seeds and put them in their mouths to chew. It's fragrant and crispy, it's really delicious!
this is not bad! You can take some back to plant it as a snack.
He immediately grabbed a few of the received virtual backpacks and saved them.
Eat and listen to the surrounding travellers and adventurers talking about the world, really what news is there. These people are everything from national policies to trivial matters. Some of them even mentioned the Holy Dragon City and talked about Jia Zhengjin. It's just that there is no other information except that the Holy Dragon City and the Dragon tribe joined forces and the war with the Human Empire allied up before.
He said that when Jia Zhengjin was listening to someone talking in the corner, the Mazi face girl who brought him into the hotel before, that is, the daughter of the shop owner, McGee, came to the desk. As a result, the fat waiter secretly stuffed a silver coin into her pocket, frowning forward and grabbing her wrist: "I said Lan Lan, I wouldn't care about you by secretly drinking ale! Help you hide from my dad. It’s okay. But steal the money and pass it? Even if our friendship is good, I can’t protect you!”
"McGee, I didn't steal the money!" The fat waiter was startled, and then turned around and hurriedly explained, "Really! This is not stolen!"
"It's not stolen, is it someone else who rewarded you? Why didn't I see such a lavish guest?" McGee said in a deep voice, UU reading a book www.uukanshu.com "Lan Lan, I'm a good sister, it's not like You lost your job!"
"McGee, I really didn't steal the money!" The fat waiter quickly explained, "This money is definitely not on the account. Although it is not a reward for the guests, it really didn't cost your home."
"What do you mean?" McGee pulled her up. "Tell me clearly."
"It's... it's..." The fat waiter tangled for a while, and said to her softly, "I tell you the truth, but you can't tell others that I said it."
"Lan Lan, I think you are a friend, you say yes!" McGee looked at her seriously.
The fat waiter carefully looked around, then reached out and turned McGill to the innermost of the service desk, and lowered her voice and said to her: "I'm sorry! Actually, you and your dad don't know, everyone does this. There is a field When a businessman or a passenger comes over, everyone will bully them that they don’t understand our prices, and then come up with a fake menu. Then the same food will be charged a little more expensive. The soldier who didn’t know where to fight just now, he didn’t order it. A rare fruit of 4 silver coins? I sold him 5 silver coins! So...so this one silver coin becomes mine!"
"Are you crazy? If my dad knew it, I would definitely whip you!" McGee's eyes widened. "Do you do this often?"
"No, no!" The fat waiter shook his head hurriedly. "I, I was doing this for the first time, and I was quite nervous..."
"How can you do this? If the reputation of our hotel is damaged, how will we do business in the future?" McGee said anxiously.
"No? No one knows anyway..."
"Lan Lan, don't take them away! If the guests personally rewarded them, wonder if they took them. This kind of deception is not good!"
