I, the retired legend, were forced to go ashore

"Nonsense, the puree of fermented wine, can you afford it without water! Hmph, it's a waste of my hard work!"

Ada continued to appear smug from nowhere.

After mixing a barrel of wine with water and selling it all out, the profit was even more than the normal sale!

You can also come up with some heart-warming explanations such as 'I want everyone to drink wine, so I can't bear to sell it at a high price'.

What a fucking business genius I am!

Chapter 219. The appearance of the princess

"Hey, lady boss, bring me a glass without water!"

After knowing that what they are drinking now is no different from donkey urine, but it is really good wine mixed with water, some people have other thoughts.

Ada readily took the money, and then presented him with a real glass of fermented ale—the kind with only one-fifth of water added secretly.

The guest took the cup, drank it in one gulp, shook his head excitedly, and kept thinking about it.

But then there was emptiness: "Although it is indeed a lot richer, after drinking it... it still feels the same."

He kind of regretted spending the money.

"You know how to consume now, you old guy." Ada teased with a smile.

"The life has changed for the better. I used to save money for the winter, but now I see that the price of food has suddenly become so low... Have another cup!" The guest took out the money and proudly slapped it on the stage: "This cup, to the king! "

"It's not that old dizzy king!"

As soon as he raised his glass, he heard someone shouting in the tavern: "It's the new queen! Haven't you heard that the old swordsman is too sick to get out of bed, and now everything is in the hands of Her Majesty the Queen, this time to solve the food problem, Of course it is!"

The circulation of news in the harbor area is relatively closed, and Ada is a slob who only knows to lie down and watch when she is free, so she doesn't go out for a stroll.So it was only then that she suddenly realized that Crown Prince Hussein and Princess Messiah hadn't come for a long time.

Maybe what this guy said is true.

But Ada didn't remember the old sword master who had only met a few times, nor corrected the guest's rude remarks.

The replacement of the new king may be what His Majesty the old Sword Lord would like to see.

Killing two birds with one stone, Ada developed a sincere admiration for this sick old man.

At this time, the topic of discussion in the tavern has changed from who is in power now to the appearance of the mysterious princess.

"His Royal Highness is almost an adult, and she hasn't shown her face in public yet, so she must be very ugly!"

Someone has a very firm judgment.

Ada recognized that this person was the gangster who touched Messiah's butt some time ago, but Messiah cut his wrist with a knife and clamored for revenge.

Now he is also a regular here.

It's not because of the extremely inferior wine here, but because of the fact that when everyone was hungry a while ago, they could buy two baked potatoes here.

Now that he has enough money and a place to drink, he is reluctant to part with the atmosphere of lively discussions here.

"You ignorant bastard, I look down on you at other times, but I agree with this sentence." Regular customer Jin Blacksmith laughed: "I heard that the crown prince is almost ten years older than the princess, it must be because of the princess. Your Highness is so ugly that you can only find it among older men and young people."

The guests in the tavern laughed, and someone boasted: "Then I can apply for the job!"

"You? You can be her father at your age!"

Someone laughed again.

Ada felt that based on her relationship with the princess, she should not tolerate them slandering her like this.

So he cleared his throat and was about to speak when he heard an angry shout from outside the door: "Shut up!"

The door was pushed open, Indigo wrapped his coat tightly, exhaled hoarfrost and walked in, while patting the ice crystals on the top of his head and shoulders, he asked in a deep voice: "Who was slandering the princess just now? Don't say it again. Fortunately, this time it was the I heard that if other guards bump into you, you must be whipped!"

He was always tactful with his words.

These words not only corrected the public's ridicule of the princess, but also raised their own status, and invisibly drew their favor with these people.

The drinkers heaved a sigh of relief when they saw that they didn't have any trouble coming out of their mouths.

Indigo covered his mouth and coughed violently a few times. The heart-piercing sound almost coughed out all the air in his stomach.

"This damn weather is as cold as it gets."

After coughing, he tightened his coat and walked to the front desk: "Miss Ada, bring me a glass of strong wine to drive away the cold."

Ada didn't talk nonsense, and directly made an updated and iterative cocktail that she had learned from Fox - this thing may be small, but it is definitely high in strength.

"Why, is it snowing outside?"

As she swirled the shaker, she examined the ice crystals that had formed on the middle-aged guard's hair.

"Ah, as soon as it landed, it melted on the ground... the ground will start to slip tomorrow morning." Indigo sighed.

A guest next to him asked: "Master Guard, I heard that you used to be a big shot, haven't you seen Her Royal Highness, what does she look like?"

All the other guests in the tavern held their breath, waiting for the guard's answer.

Only Ada pouted helplessly: The guests in this tavern probably saw the princess too many times than this Lord Indigo Chin.

"Of course I've seen it, Your Highness Princess... Then twice, it's definitely not as ugly as you said, on the contrary, it's very beautiful."

Indigo waved his hand: "Needless to say too much, All Saints' Day is only a few days away, and Her Royal Highness the Princess will give a speech at the King's Square. Everyone go and see it."

He then picked up the wine that Ida had mixed, took a sip, and coughed again after being choked.

"Cough, cough, cough... I'm sorry, it's been many days, and I haven't seen you well."

Chapter 220. I'm not praising you!

Indigo sat in front of the bar, sipping a cocktail: "Hurry up and finish this glass, and continue to patrol."

"I don't think your condition is right. Why are your eyes so red?" Ada pointed to the guard's face.

The whites of his eyes had turned blood red, which was obviously not caused by fatigue.

"It's nothing, it's been red for a few days, but I don't feel anything." Indigo shook his head: "After I get paid this month's salary, I'll go see a good pastor."

Ada nodded, noncommittal.

She speculated that it might be that Indigo had contracted an infectious disease while tracking down the group of poachers who sold the meat of kobolds, goblins and other lesser creatures.

But in another world, getting sick is not a terrible thing.

No matter how serious the disease is, it can't stop one spell. If it doesn't work, then two spells.

All kinds of churches and temples have this business, and most of them charge low fees-they just point to this to buy believers.

"I think I heard someone here looking for a priest?"

The door of the tavern was pushed open again, and the old whore with a low-brimmed hat covering his face walked in, breathing hoarfrost and slapping ice crystals on his body.

Ada raised her hand to say hello: "Yo, here we come."

When dealing with local rich friends whose expenses are supported by Stonetalon Mountain, she will not engage in those little tricks of mixing alcohol with water, but immediately offer a glass of boiled water.

The old prostitute sat in front of the bar, next to the indigo chin, glanced at the girl in the custom-made new dress, and immediately lowered his eyelids.

Although a girl dressed like this is very brilliant, but the old prostitute still understands the truth that a friend's wife should not be bullied.

Although I don't know who is the wife of Ada and Deep Shadow.

"I'm here to ask you something." The old prostitute didn't even bother to drink the tasteless wine before his eyes, and went straight to the point: "Help me find a place to hide for a few days."

Ada was very surprised: "Didn't you rent a nest, and you were found out so quickly?"

The old prostitute nodded silently.

Ada continued to raise her eyebrows: "Why, no one came to check recently?"

"I've turned the world upside down, don't you know that at least three groups of people come here every day to inquire." The old prostitute was stunned for a moment: "Why, no one cares about your neighborhood?"

Indigo coughed twice, and raised his head to claim credit: "Hehe, how could I let irrelevant people harass Miss Ada, those people were all blocked by me."

"????" The old prostitute continued to be dazed: "Who are you?"

"Oh, I'm in charge of this area of ​​police affairs." Indigo Chin was very enthusiastic, and stretched out his hand: "Are you a fugitive or a pastor?"

"Fuck!"

The old prostitute looked at the seemingly friendly hand stretched out, nothing but panic.

Then it turned into a demented look, looking at Ada: "Why don't you remind me?"

That's the end of the game, he thought.

There are so many people around, but they can't be killed, and Ada's sister is also involved.

On the other hand, Ada smiled and took her time, answering Indigo's inquiry first: "He is a priest with good skills."

Then appease the old prostitute: "Don't worry, this is one of our own."

This sound of being a friend made Diochi feel comfortable, and he suddenly felt that he hadn't worked in vain for so long, and then he waved his hand: "It's okay, brother, you are hiding in my territory, no one can catch you .”

Now that he has made up his mind to take Ada's route, all other responsibilities will naturally have to be sidelined.

Therefore, Miss Ida's friend was his friend.

The guarantee ticket from the captain of the local guard made the old prostitute startled for a while:

"You even bought the local guards? You want to start a local community?"

"What kind of local association? Don't talk nonsense. I'm a representative of the public opinion." Ada glanced at him and said, "I bought the next door to use as a hotel. You can stay there temporarily and help me decorate it."

"You bought the next door? Suddenly rich? Did your family burn paper for you?"

To be honest, although he only met Ada a few times these days, almost every time he could refresh his knowledge of this old acquaintance.

When chasing and killing the half-dragon Aiden, she actually showed the strength enough to torture and kill the half-dragon, and even turned into a beautiful woman, which already surprised me;

The extremely fat fraternity member introduced a few days ago, he thought it was an actor or a liar, but he didn't expect this man named Brando to be very energetic, and he personally delivered what he wanted on the same day Come here, and the fee is extremely low.

On the way here this time, he also heard someone arguing on the street, and then the person next to him tried to persuade them to go to Miss Ada for an argument... Ada has such a reputation in the local area, and even bought the captain of the guard, is it really true? Want to set up local associations...well, representatives of public opinion?

The old prostitute took a sip of the wine that the girl had just served, squinted at her, and suddenly felt that he didn't know this little brother anymore.

Then the old prostitute frowned: "No, your wine has no taste?"

"How can it be tasteless? This is a new variety, called the King's New Wine. The purer the heart, the more mellow it will be."

Ada used her instinct to make up stories on the spot.

"Oh, that's how it is. No wonder I tasted bad after drinking it." The old prostitute nodded, and then slapped the table: "That's no wonder! You bastard, you actually used water to fool me!"

"Yes, you also think this method is very good, is it possible to fool some customers with low intelligence?"

With one hand on her hip, Ada proudly pointed at the group of drinkers staring at her in the tavern, her voice was outrageously loud.

The old prostitute suppressed his urge to hit someone, and the veins on his face stood out: "Be serious! I'm not praising you!"

Chapter 221. Lie for the first time

At the beginning, the Winter Party was just a family feast for the Miyinhua family. Later, each family member would bring their friends from the army to participate. There were more and more people, so it gradually evolved into an annual event held by the military of the four provinces of Jianjue. A large gathering, and was tacitly approved by His Majesty.

The military and government have always been the two major powers under the ruler.

Although the Miyinhua family has never produced a marshal, and it is rare for their ancestors to even lead an army alone, after many years of operation, its family members have spread all over the middle and lower ranks of the army.

Therefore, the number of people invited to the annual gala is enough to afford one of the most prestigious banquets in White Harbor.

Even the place where it was held was not in the mansion of the Miyinhua family, but in the large hotel in the center of White Harbor - the Lion King Tower.

Because there are too many people, they can't fit in the house...

Most of the participants are soldiers who obey the rules, so there are very few emergencies. However, in recent years, more and more outsiders have been invited among the invitees, and accidents have also increased. For example, now:

A tall woman, an elf, and two little girls.

The dress is very bright, and the temperament is also very good, but what does it mean to only take one invitation card?

I don't know, each invitation can only allow two people to enter!

The nearby soldiers did not feel pity for the appearance of these women, but were all filled with anger.

The hat on the red-haired girl's head is still moving - that's a pet at all!

At this time, the sky was covered with snowflakes, and the earth was silvery white. If you don't look carefully, you really can't see it.
