Occasionally, I can see a few small carts passing through the middle of the road. I guess they are those who take advantage of the lack of crowds at night to pull carts to transport goods back and forth between chambers of commerce.
Vickrey had also seen this kind of person in the capital of the Os Empire.
Larger cities usually have chambers of commerce, and chambers of commerce in this world generally take care of selling goods, purchasing items, and some banking functions.
Compared to the kingdom's official chambers of commerce, you will get more interest by depositing money in some private chambers of commerce.
Although it won't be as safe as the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce.
But even so, many people will save money in unofficial chambers of commerce, after all, they can get more money.
The Chamber of Commerce sells many goods, and sometimes these cheap human-powered carts are used to transport each other.
Human-operated trolleys generally only come out at night because there are too many people during the day. Not only does it take a long time to go back and forth, but they also dare not pull too much goods.
But at night, you don’t need to worry so much. You can just run around on the street. Even if it is overloaded, there are very few people from the patrol team to take care of it.
If you live near the road, you can often hear the noise caused by the friction of wooden wheels on the uneven ground when you sleep at night.
Therefore, houses close to the road are quite cheap...
"It's really hard work for these people..."
As the leader of the Knights, the most common commissions Yula received at the beginning were from civilians.
Therefore, Yura can have more empathy for the people at the bottom than ordinary noble ladies.
When she saw these shirtless workers, still sweating profusely, pulling a cart of goods and running hard in the shape of an arrow, a sigh appeared on her face.
Vickery also felt the same way because he was not a noble in his previous life.
But he can't help so many people. If he wants to completely improve the lives of people on the mainland, he needs very lofty ideals.
At least the head of a big family is far from being able to do this.
But now Weekly is unable to care about these things at all. The thing in front of him is to prevent the destruction of this world.
But first he had to find the vampire.
"When I came here, I heard rumors that some vampires appeared in Art City, but judging from this situation, it doesn't look like that at all."
After seeing the workers running back and forth on the street, Vickery rubbed his chin and muttered to himself.
Nimu frowned and asked, "Why?"
"Look, since there are vampires here
Art City is murdering human lives, so why do so many people come out at night? "
"Another one, if dark creatures really appear in a city, I remember that most lords will put up notices to warn residents to be careful. After seeing such notices, residents will not come out at night."
While Vickrey was talking, Yula took over his words.
"But when we entered Yate City, we didn't see any notices, and people here were still working outside at night..."
After hearing Vickrey's analysis, Yora roughly understood what Vickrey meant.
"Then what should we do next?" Nim asked.
Vickery straightened his clothes, then took a step forward towards the source of the smell, "Of course I'm going to see the source of that smell, and it's already here. How can I do it without checking?" He turned back. He said while looking at the two of them.
Seeing that Vickery was still going to continue taking action, Yora and Nim looked at each other, and then followed Vickray.
Following the source of the scent, Vickery crossed the road where workers shuttled back and forth and came to the other side of the road.
After walking about 500 meters, he saw a small shop with lights on.
This store doesn't look big. The signboard is a bamboo pole stuck in front of the door. Hanging from the bamboo pole is a lantern with the words "Amei Hotel" written on it.
"What would you like to eat?"
Vickrey took Yola and Nim, and as soon as they stepped into the threshold of this small store, a very beautiful girl came to greet them.
The girl looked at several people with sparkling eyes, as if she had seen something extraordinary.
Judging from the uniform she was wearing, the tied up hair, and the white apron tied around her waist, she must be a waiter here.
Chapter 249 This is a trial
After hearing this, Vickery didn't speak immediately. He raised his head and looked at the environment inside the shop.
The inside of the shop is as small as it looks on the outside, with only six or seven tables in total, but it is full of workers.
Most of the workers were wearing dirty clothes. Three or five people gathered together to eat. Many of them drank too much and were bragging loudly.
He said that when he was pulling a cart last night, he encountered a ferocious wild dog and punched it until it ran away snarling.
He also said that he saw the city lord's daughter wandering on the street at night, and took the initiative to greet him. He also boasted about the city lord's daughter's beauty, which made people around him envious.
"The city lord's daughter?"
Vickrey silently recorded this information, and then looked at the waiter in front of him, "We smelled a very fragrant smell when we passed by. What is it?"
He had no special purpose for asking this, just because he was curious about what smelled so good.
As long as there is a person with a sense of taste, no one can be indifferent to delicious food, even those who are powerful.
Those who are strong can go without eating for a long time, but most people still won't resist delicious food.
Food is a gift from God to mankind!
No matter how tired or uncomfortable you are, as long as you have a delicious meal afterwards, you will immediately regain your energy.
The same is true for the bed. When you lie down on it when you feel very tired, you will instantly feel that your whole body is relaxed and your health is recovering little by little.
The beautiful waiter smiled when she heard this. She was not surprised by what Vickery said.
Because many people who eat here have asked about the good smell.
And this is also the store’s secret weapon in attracting passers-by to eat.
After a pause, the waiter smiled and moved away, pointing to a row of smoke-filled ovens behind him, where a man was grilling meat.
"You were attracted by the store manager's barbecue, right? You came at the right time. Today is Sunday, and the barbecue is on sale!"
The waiter looked at several people and said.
Hearing this, Youla stepped forward and asked, "Give us five portions each!"
"Five...five servings!?"
The waiter's eyes widened.
She has never seen anyone eat so much, and each person has five portions. The total for these three people is fifteen portions!
So the waiter asked again doubtfully, "Are you...sure?"
"Sure, five servings for each person. Is there anything else to drink?"
“There is ale, but the price is a bit…”
"Is there just ale? Is there any orange drink?"
When Youra said this in the shop, the customers in the shop burst into laughter for some reason.
"Miss Knight, as a knight, you don't drink wine, but you like to drink children's drinks!"
"Yes, yes, this is the first time I heard that knights don't drink alcohol. You don't think the malt wine is too bitter to drink, do you?"
"The ale here is delicious. Miss Knight should try a glass!"
The workers pulling the carts started making harmless jokes.
Hearing this, Youla looked at these people indifferently, and after a moment of silence, she suddenly said to the waiter: "Then bring me five servings of malt wine!"
"Yura..."
Vickery persuaded in a low voice.
He knew that Youla rarely drank, and even if she did drink, she would
They all drink craft wine.
No matter how delicious the malt wine in a small shop in a place like this is, it will not taste better than the wine specially provided by the nobles.
If Yura finds the drink too unpleasant to swallow, then he must be the unlucky one...
Youla will definitely give him a drink when he arrives. Vickrey knows Youla too well...
But at this time, Yura really wanted to prove that she could drink it, and that drinking a little malt liquor would not delay things.
With her physical condition, it is difficult for her to get drunk. Drinking that kind of malt liquor will only make her feel good or bad.
As a girl, of course she likes to drink sweet things, such as orange drinks or wine.
Wine is already one of the most palatable wines that she can accept.
She had never drank ale.
But Vickrey had tasted the stuff and thought it was like beer.
If you like it, you won't like it. If you don't, you will find it unpleasant to drink.
Vickrey felt that Yura would hate that smell.
Seeing Youla's determination, the waiter was stunned for a moment, then turned around and ran over to prepare food for a few people.
After the waiter came to the boss who was grilling meat and told the boss what happened to the people in Vickery, a smile suddenly appeared on the boss's face.
But Vickrey, who had just sat down, felt strange when he saw the exchange between the two people.
That is, the waiter actually used sign language to communicate with the store manager.
"Are you deaf..."
Vickery muttered.
"Vickley, is malt wine really bitter..."
Just when Vickrey lowered his head and thought deeply, Yula beside him asked in a low voice.
Hearing this, Vickery looked at her sideways, "Guess why I wanted to stop you just now?"
"Ah, then... what should I do?" Yula was anxious.
It's not that she can't drink ale. As a powerful knight, she can still drink it even if she holds it in her arms, and she won't feel full so easily and will get drunk more easily.
If it just tastes bad, it’s really hard for Yura, a girl, to accept it!
Seeing the regretful look on Youla's face, Weekly couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth, "Who wants you to be brave? You must be feeling uncomfortable now. Why should you order it if you feel that you can't accept painful things?"
"They call me Miss Knight, and they think I must not dare to drink. As a knight, of course I have to respond, otherwise I will embarrass the knight!"
"What's your weird reason? You were just provoked by the other party..."
Vickery was speechless.
At this time, Nimu, who was sitting opposite Vickrey, said: "It doesn't matter, Miss Yola, if you don't want to drink, just leave it to me."
"Is that okay, Nim, you're so kind!"
As she spoke, Youla reached out and rubbed Nimue's soft and smooth cheeks, causing a group of hard-blooded men nearby to look at her sideways.
Regarding what Nim said, Weekly said it was best because he couldn't drink that kind of thing...
But soon Yura was silent for a moment, then sighed and looked at Nim, "No, I ordered this wine. They think female knights can't drink it, so I just want to prove that I can. I shouldn't come to you." Help me."
"It doesn't matter..."
Vickrey on the side raised his eyebrows, and upon hearing this, Youla frowned and responded, "No, this is a test for me!"
Chapter 250 Strange Girl
Nim: "..."
"Trial or something..."
After hearing what Yura said, Vickery also fell silent.
Isn't it good to let Nim drink it all quickly?
While several people were talking, a beautiful clerk came over carrying food and wine.
She served the food on an oversized plate that was almost as big as her body.
There was enough food for 15 people on it. Whether it was barbecue or a full bottle of malt liquor, it was quite substantial.
But when this frail-looking waiter served the food, there was no expression of difficulty on his face. Instead, he looked quite relaxed.
