I, the retired legend, were forced to go ashore

"Drink and drink!"

Ada saw the needle, and immediately brought out two glasses of water: "Take this as wine, let's get drunk!"

The two looked at each other, both wanting to make up for the relationship between the two, and said in unison: "That's... that's fine, then thank you lady boss."

They picked up their cups, bumped each other, drank it down, and then smiled at each other.

The unhappiness just now disappeared with this interaction.

It can't be seen that although the proprietress may have some brain problems, she is still a girl after all, and her heart is still very delicate.

"Thank you," Ada spread her hands, "Two crowns, who will pay?"

"????, do you want more money?" The two neighbors who had been arguing before suddenly felt that they had stepped into a pit, and they became united.

This is two glasses of boiled water!

In Bai Harbor, the most indispensable thing is water. Can't we go back to our own home and drink until we are full?

Why do you still have to spend money here?

"But you've already drunk it." Ada pointed to the empty cup, then knocked on the wooden board behind her, on which was written four large characters' single evaders die' in characters like a dog crawling, sending out a friendly reminder.

The neighbor who stole the fruit gave a treat, and paid the money in resentment, and the two left the tavern, shoulder to shoulder, full of indignation against capitalism.

The relationship is even better than before.

"Setting up a common goal for two people who are opposed to each other is the fastest way to resolve disputes." Shen Ying looked at the backs of the two silently, and looked at his friend with admiration: "Unexpectedly, you still have such ability. "

A mere two crowns can solve a neighborhood dispute, isn't it much better than your own strategy of forcibly suppressing it with prestige?

It seems that there are still some advantages in my friend's dirty head.

"Haha, I made money from the two idiots again. In this way... if I earn another 98 crowns, I can buy that elf coloring book. I'm looking forward to it!"

Ada muttered to herself, her face was full of happiness.

Then he turned his head: "I didn't hear what you said just now."

"Nothing, idiot!" Deep Shadow turned his head, refusing to give even the slightest bit of disdain.

"If you fail to learn, you will know the curse words of human beings..." Ada sighed.

Then, looking at the graceful figure of the elf with his back to him, and the slightly exposed, pink neck like egg white, he easily recalled the preview of the long-awaited book, and replaced himself as the hero, breathing quickly and quickly stand up.

She leaned on the counter with her arms folded, imagining that she was pressing Shen Ying on the bed, laughing ferociously, and then was killed by her, summoning vines to bind her hands and feet...

Hey, wait, why is it the other way around, the plot shouldn't be like this!The sufferer is the elf!

Ada looked at the guests in the tavern and suddenly felt a pain in her kidney.

She thought there might be something wrong with herself.

"Anyone want to do laundry? The coat only costs two crowns, and it's guaranteed to be clean!"

Little Wicker ran out of the kitchen, carrying a large laundry tub with great difficulty.

Some regular customers in the tavern who came here every day already knew about the girl's new job, smiled and waved their hands, and continued to chat with other people.

However, there was a mercenary who had just arrived, looked at the orphan of a widow with a harelip in astonishment, and asked involuntarily, "Are you so cheap?"

This price is just right for the job of doing laundry, but if some additional services are included...

"I only do laundry here!"

Xiao Liutiao looked at the mercenary expressionlessly, and indicated with words and gestures that she did not follow the old path of her late mother.

"Okay." The mercenary licked his lips, feeling a little sorry.

But he immediately took off his coat and handed it over: "Wash it well for me, I'll pick it up at this time tomorrow, can you do it?"

"No problem!" Little Wicker nodded, took the clothes and money, and made a big bow: "Thank you sir, I will work hard."

She then handed the money to Ada.

"Old rule, half for each person, I'll keep your part for you first." Ada put the money into the box, and secretly applauded her original decision.

Although laundry jobs don't make a lot of money these days, it's different here.

The clothes washed every day will be gathered together, and a "cleaning" magic will be cast through the deep shadow, even the stains and deep blood stains on the clothes will be cleaned, so there are many repeat customers, and they can still earn money. A few hard-earned ones.

And Ada didn't need to pay anything at all.

Little Wicker has a very small appetite, not even as good as Triss, and only needs to add a bowl every day.

For accommodation, she only insists on sleeping on the floor in the small space under the stairs every day, which does not take up much space at all.

As for Triss, she also welcomes this little sister very much, and is very happy that she has an extra playmate who talks and plays cards.

It is worth mentioning that Xiao Liutiao is just ten years old this year, not eight or nine years old as she looks... She just grew too thin due to long-term malnutrition.

Seeing Xiao Liutiao happily carrying the laundry tub into the back kitchen, the mercenary partner whispered:

"It's hard to live now, aren't you wasting money?"

"Hey, looking at that little girl, it's a bit too pitiful." The mercenary waved his hand, not paying attention.

No matter at any time, mercenaries are a relatively high-income group.

The companion blinked: "You don't have a change of clothes, it's so cold outside, where do you live at night?"

"Where are you going to deal with one night, haha, I heard that your next door is a beautiful woman."

The two began to laugh and compare the beauty with the proprietress, and finally came to the conclusion that as long as the proprietress is dumb, she must win.

The speaker didn't care about the listener, and when Ada heard the scene where the mercenaries had nowhere to live, she suddenly thought about it.

Chapter 204. Mercury retrograde

It was late at night, and the Chimera Head was about to close, and the last few guests were still sitting inside.

They are all bachelors, and now their home is just a small tent, and it's not interesting to go back, so it's better to come here and chat.

Therefore, the few of them had to wait until the proprietress impatiently urged them to say goodbye every day, and agreed to come back tomorrow.

"Food prices are getting more and more expensive now. I went shopping in the market this morning, and someone forced a coupon," one of the newspaper deliverers said with a little dissatisfaction: "But after calculating the discount , I found that the price of rice is even more expensive than half a month ago!"

The other person looked at the half baked potato left in his hand, and sighed with some reluctance: "Yes, if this goes on, it won't be long before the little money His Majesty sent will be eaten up."

They all nodded dully and remained silent, apparently worried about the future.

"Fortunately, the boss's place is still good and cheap. It costs a few kronor to sit for a day, and you can get [-]% full of water."

A regular customer Ida has known for five or six years sighs.

His home has not been destroyed, but he still sits here for a while after work every day, as usual, talking nonsense.

Ada was lying on the table, her mind was full of wild thoughts of that elf book, and she raised her eyelids after hearing the words: "Then how many more baked potatoes do you want?"

"Forget it, your potatoes are worth two crowns each, and they are three or four times more expensive than usual. I can't afford it..." The man smacked his lips: "Even with this kind of consumption, I'm afraid I can't afford it." You can only last a month, so you have to go out and beg for food?"

One month, this is the time that most people in the harbor area can still hold on.

Ada sighed too.

"I hope His Majesty can find a way to stabilize food prices..." She recalled what His Majesty the old Sword Lord had said before, crossing her legs.

Baking potatoes was the only way she could think of. If the entire harbor area rioted because of lack of food, she might take Triss and Deep Shadow to seek refuge elsewhere, and she probably wouldn't come back here.

"As for this king, I don't think so!" A mercenary who was used to sitting in a corner knocked on the table angrily: "I just hope that he will abdicate quickly and let the queen take the throne. Maybe the economy will improve."

What makes people feel strange is that the good reputation left by the old sword master for decades of painstaking efforts among the people was exhausted in a famine.

Another guest looked at him: "Shh, be careful!"

"Be careful what you say, why don't you tell people if you've done something wrong? Huh!" The mercenary drank the lemonade in the glass in one gulp, lowered his head and dressed roughly, but didn't speak anymore.

After calming down a bit, he raised his head: "Miss Boss, refill the water."

"Go by yourself." Ada didn't even look up, and continued to lie on the table to support the corpse.

Facing the operator's inaction, the mercenary didn't dare to be angry or speak up, so he stood up and walked towards the counter in desperation.

But he still dared to complain, anyway, this ridiculously strong proprietress doesn't care what others say about her: "Tsk, this store is not pornographic, and it depends on us repeat customers for help."

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm drowning now and can't move."

Ada didn't lift her eyelids, she lay down on the table and answered lazily.

"Drowning?" The mercenary picked up the water bottle, looked at the proprietress who was lying and didn't write drafts, and while refilling himself, spit: "I think you have too much snot, you choked on it."

"Hey, I never lie, and you don't believe me when I tell you, hey."

Ada waved her hands, still lying on the table.

She is indeed water sealed.

As long as she stands up now, the problem will probably be discovered by others, but she is sure that it is definitely not incontinence...

This body is really scary!

Ada thought, is there a possibility that everyone is like her, as long as they have a little fantasy, they will suffer such catastrophe.

That's why there is such an invention as skirts in this world!

Yes, I'm definitely not the only one who is in such a miserable situation, otherwise why would there be such boring things as skirts?

If it is in the way and not beautiful, it must be for ventilation and cover!

"Alas..." The girl sighed melancholy.

And issued a eviction order: "I want to close the door, you all go..."

Isn't it just fantasizing and creating a plot of conquering Deep Shadow in my mind for a few hours?

When she came to her senses, she couldn't move anymore.

The most exasperating thing is that most of the time in the plot, she is in the situation where she is killed by the deep shadow, which is really exasperating!

After the few guests had all left, Ada raised her head, looked left and right to see if there was no one in the hall, and ran straight up to the second floor.

Dragging, twisting, hiding, and changing were done in one go. Although her fingers slipped a little while rubbing, she didn't delay for a long time. She held her breath and used great perseverance to resolutely get rid of this unstoppable and lingering feeling.

If this is discovered, her reputation will be completely ruined.

Then, in order to hide the fever on her face, she took the initiative to wash her face for the first time.

"Sleep, sleep, rest!"

Ada ran downstairs, and while she was putting the door and window panels, she shouted about the little wicker who was still washing clothes in the kitchen, and the deep shadow and Triss of the ripening plants in the backyard, ending her day's life.

"Aunt Ida, good night."

Little Wicker came out of the kitchen with the last piece of laundry, hung it on the clothesline at one side of the hall, and then climbed into her den—the floor bunk under the stairs—with a window hanging above it. Curtains to block the view and give yourself some privacy.

Triss then walked out from the backyard and looked at the newly joined younger sister, hesitated, but didn't say much.

For such a poor accommodation environment, she tried to persuade her, and she also approached her mother, but unfortunately, one of the two insisted on sleeping here, while the other said with the usual laissez-faire attitude that she couldn't control it, and finally had no choice but to give up.

Deep Shadow packed up the tools in the yard, fed a magic spar to Xiaobai, and then spread out the braids tied for neatness during work, shook his head to loosen his hair, and was exhausted.

In order to make Triss feel more relaxed, she has been overloading her magic energy.

And she is not a natural mage, nor proficient in natural magic, so she can only do more with less, and is very tired every day.

Ada looked at Shen Ying's appearance, and thought bitterly: This stupid elf hasn't beaten herself hard for many days...

"Why are you blushing?"

Deep Shadow asked abruptly, pulling her back to reality.

"No! This room is too hot, it must be because there are too many people hahaha..." Ada talked about him: "And I have already washed my face, I will go to sleep first and say goodbye!"

After finishing speaking, he ran up to the second floor.

Triss and Shenying looked at each other, and they both felt that this guy who never made people worry might have a broken string.
