Train to Another World

Old Pierre ate this meal with trepidation. He knew that the food he provided was far inferior to what Li Zhuoguang and the others brought. If it were normal times, Old Pierre would be absolutely happy. If you eat so many good things, you will earn money.

But now we are in a situation where we have to ask for help from others. I originally wanted to treat the other party well and wait until the other party was satisfied with the meal before talking about my demands. However, I did not expect that the food I prepared out of my own house was really inferior compared to the other party. Too far.

The most impressive thing is that the man named William actually brought two large bottles of pure water. Is this something a human can do? Even for a temple, it would be difficult to produce so much water at once.

But after all, he is the master, and it is really unjustifiable for him not to eat a single meal. So Old Pierre randomly picked up a small piece of dried meat on his plate and nibbled it carefully.

During the meal, Old Pierre found that no one in the other group touched the food he provided, and they all ate what they brought. This discovery made Old Pierre even more frustrated.

Although I have never heard of those cities, it can be seen that the other party is really a big noble. No wonder Ms. Storm is willing to take the job of a bodyguard. Before this, no one had ever heard of Ms. Storm taking the job of a bodyguard. Um? !

Old Pierre was surprised to find that the group of nobles across from him didn't eat much fruit. Occasionally I would eat a small, round green fruit, but Ms. Storm would eat non-stop from the beginning.

About half of the fruit on the plate went into her stomach.

Although Li Zhuoguang and the others didn't think there was anything wrong, this kind of thing seemed extremely unreasonable to Old Pierre. Although Ariana is a famous adventurer, she is still a hired party.

It's already great that the employer is willing to provide food. How can anyone eat like her, and what's more, she eats very rare fruits? But it seemed that those people had no intention of obstructing him, and they didn't even show any displeasure.

This made Old Pierre fall into thinking. He hesitated for a moment, then reached into Li Zhuoguang's plates and took out some food.

Originally, the food he provided was unacceptable to the other party. In order not to arouse the other party's resentment, Old Pierre chose to take the pancakes brought by the man named Xiong Facai.

But as soon as he bought it, he regretted it. Damn, it’s so soft and moist. Isn’t this thing cheap? But he had already touched it, so Old Pierre could only bite the bullet and imitate the bear's way of getting rich, took a piece of bread, and then scooped out a little honey with a spoon and spread it on the piece of bread.

After all, honey seems to contain quite a lot of water. Old Pierre would not dare to apply a lethal amount of honey like Xiong Facai. But when he put the honey-smeared piece of bread into his mouth, he also received tons of shock.

After all, the only things that can taste sweet here are fruits. The sweetness of honey swept over Old Pierre's taste buds like a hurricane and went straight to his forehead.

He swore that none of the sweetness he had tasted in his life was as rich as the one he felt at this moment. For a moment, a strange term appeared in his mind, sugar.

According to legend, in some extremely wealthy cities, the nobles there control the only remaining water sources in the world. They can grow fruits in their own cities, and even use the fruits to extract sugar with great luxury, preserving the sweetness for a long time.

At this moment, Old Pierre felt even more inferior. He never dared to reach out to Li Zhuoguang's plate again. Although the custom here requires guests to bring their own food, it also requires the host to provide more food than the guests, both in quality and quantity.

But Old Pierre obviously couldn't do it. This also means that Old Pierre's wealth and power are far inferior to those of his counterpart, and the two are not on the same level at all. Due to the unequal status, there was almost no possibility of cooperation, and Old Pierre became increasingly frustrated.

Li Zhuoguang has been to so many worlds and received many banquets. But this meal was the simplest meal he had ever eaten. After all, he brought everything he ate.

It wasn't that he, Mr. Li, didn't give face, but that the food provided by the city lord was already very unappetizing just by looking at it. Li Zhuoguang was not sure whether he could eat it. However, it felt like Ariana's introduction was considered a very sincere banquet, after all, there was fruit on the table.

Li Zhuoguang could understand the difficulties of the residents here and also understood the sincerity of the other party. So after he finished eating, Li Zhuoguang wiped his mouth and asked, "I wonder if you have anything to discuss with us when you invite us here this time?"

Old Pierre raised his head instantly, there is a door!

Although the other party is only asking about his intentions, if he is willing to ask, there is a possibility of cooperation. Knowing that the opportunity was rare, Old Pierre did not hold back and said directly to Li Zhuoguang: "There is a Wangya City near Haichao City. There has always been no infringement between our two cities, and there are occasional contacts.

But after the death of the old city lord, the current city lord listened to the slander of a passing wizard, opened the seal of the underground tomb in Wangwangya City, and released the demon. so……"

Li Zhuoguang continued what he said: "So you want us to re-seal or kill those demons?"

"How dare I make such a rude request." Old Pierre waved his hands repeatedly, and then sighed and said: "It's the new city owner who thinks that Wangya City can't stay here anymore, so he wants to change the place."

"War." Everyone understood.

William asked: "Does that mean you want us to deal with Wangya City?"

Old Pierre shook his head: "Of course this is the best, but I am not a wealthy city owner and cannot afford foreign aid. I invite you all here just to let you know that this dispute was not started by us. . From top to bottom in Haichao City, everyone just wants to live their lives.

I just want to ask you to support Hai Chao City. I don’t need you to send out soldiers or support materials. I just need you to show your verbal support. "

Po Jun scratched his head when he heard this. In her knowledge, there was never an enemy who would be scared away by others' verbal support. The only thing that can scare away the enemy is the heads of their own kind. So she asked, "Will just verbal support work?"

Seeing that Po Jun did not refuse directly, Old Pierre chuckled and said: "Actually, our strength in Haichao City is still stronger than theirs. They dared to attack this time because they were forced to have no choice but to do so. Encourage civilians to fight together with the city guards.

But if there are several big nobles willing to support Haichao City at this time, then both the city guards and civilians will suspect that there are many parties assisting Haichao City in this war. This will make them lose morale and even disobey orders. "

Everyone had never thought that the war here would be such a trivial matter, but considering that the forces here were all based on cities, and the combat strength was basically no more than a hundred, it made sense.

Seeing that no one refused, Old Pierre continued: "As long as you are willing to help me this time, then as long as Tide City still exists, I will be your solid ally."

Li Zhuoguang was about to agree, when the door of the living room was pushed open. A little girl in a white skirt walked in, and a maid came behind her. However, she only reached the door of the living room and stopped quickly. She could only look at the little girl anxiously.

Old Pierre turned around and saw that his little daughter had walked in. Just as he was about to tell the maid to come in and take her away, he saw her walking to the table, pointing at the crumpled fruits on the plate and asking. : "Father, weren't these green fruits prepared for me? Why did you give them to others to eat?"

Old Pierre was shocked and angry when he heard this. According to the wind speed here, no one will enter the banquet venue after the banquet starts until the banquet ends. Not to mention that no one else would join in midway empty-handed to enjoy the food at the banquet.

This situation is called "food grabbing" and is a very rude behavior. Usually when someone does this, it will be interpreted as provocation. Although Li Zhuoguang and others had stopped eating, which could barely be considered the end of the banquet, they all sat at the table and did not leave the living room.

Old Pierre immediately looked at Li Zhuoguang and the others nervously, only to find that Li Zhuoguang had left his seat and walked straight towards his little daughter.
