Locke followed Uncle Yosak downstairs, and at the corner of the stairs he saw the glamorous proprietress at the front desk again. The lady boss who was doing the accounting was bent over on the counter. From Locke's point of view, she could just see the white greasy touch on the lady's chest, and the lady boss in the accounting was full of intellectual beauty. Locke was stunned and almost slipped and rolled down the stairs.

It was almost evening, the sunset glowed the sky red, and the orange-red light shone through the bar curtain. There are not many big bosses still drinking in the bar. Except for the people from Locke's team who are still waiting for Locke, there are only twos or threes left. After Uncle Yoshak went downstairs, he first greeted the soldiers who were still in the bar, "Guys, it's almost time for dinner. I'll go back to the camp first. Don't be greedy for cups." The remaining soldiers in the bar responded respectfully. After a sound, Uncle Yoshak turned around and nodded to himself, and left first.

After sending Uncle Yoshak out of the bar, Locke came back to see his gang. These guys are about the same age as him or even younger than him, and their alcohol intake is much worse than him. Except for Hans and Kane, they can still be alive and kicking. Yard, Phil and the others were obviously drinking a little high, their faces flushed, and they were lying on the table and muttering something. There were only two or three empty glasses in front of each of them, roughly equivalent to the one bottle that Locke and Yoshak drank upstairs. However, the wine they drink is of a lower grade than Locke, just ordinary iced ale. Of course, except that the first cup was invited by Locke, the rest should be paid for by himself.

"You guys, you are not good enough to drink so much, are you sincerely causing trouble for me?" Locke scolded his subordinates who were lying in the corner of the tavern with a smile. In fact, they usually drink one drink by themselves, and two drinks when they are extravagant. Today, because Locke and Yoshak have been talking for a long time, they can't help spending money to drink another drink or two.

After drinking, everyone is also less restrained by the team leader who is loyal enough to him. He ignores Locke's laughing and scolding, and still lies there and stares. The two guys, Kane and Hans, were even more prepared to force Locke down from the seat, and they were going to order two more drinks. "Captain, you're treating yourself to a guest today, what do you mean you haven't had a drink with the brothers? Hurry up and sit down, let's have two drinks." Kane said to Locke.

"Don't talk about it, do you think these guys can still drink? Do you want to drink it and go back to camp tonight? Hurry up and pull them and let them sober up! Otherwise, there will be no food to eat later." Locke waved his hand quickly, " Today is my problem, we have been talking for a long time, let everyone hang here, and invite everyone to have a drink another day!"

Speaking of which, Locke's subordinates were not without winks, and most of them stood up stiffly. Kane and Hans also went to pull the people who couldn't stand up and prepared to leave. At this time, it was getting dark, and there were no soldiers who were drinking in the tavern except for Locke in the corner.

At this time, a group of about 15 or 6 people walked in from outside the tavern, young and middle-aged men with ragged clothes and yellow complexions. It should be the remaining residents of the town. Locke looked at it without expression. This group of uninvited people walked in aggressively. The leading middle-aged man was just about to say something when he suddenly saw Locke and the others in the corner. The standard military uniforms revealed their identities. The leader's expression changed and he quickly held back his words. Uneasy and awe squinted to observe the group of soldiers. The group of people he brought, the noisy voice suddenly fell silent, and it was also slightly restrained and motionless.

Locke obviously had no interest in this group of poor people in the town who suddenly appeared, and he greeted his men to leave. Before leaving, he went to the counter at the counter to settle today's account. 10 glasses of ordinary ale cost 10 copper delles in total, plus two bottles of higher quality beer also cost 10 copper delles, adding up to a total of 20 copper delles ,Good deal. Locke took out his purse, took out 20 of them, and photographed them at the front desk of the bar.

Locke heard the sound of swallowing in his throat, which was made by the ragged poor people. Locke observed that they dared not look at their purses, but stared at the money at the front desk of the bar and swallowed their saliva. 20 Copper Dele is a lot of money here. This bar seems to be very prosperous today, with a total of thirty or forty people. However, don’t be fooled by this appearance. Most of the people here sit all afternoon. They don’t. Luckily like Locke's subordinates, there is a captain who invites him to drink, and they all consume it by themselves. How much spare money can you expect from this group of people who are mostly third-class soldiers and servants? They usually only come for one drink, but relying on this one, they come here to brag to pass the time.

A normal day's profit for this bar is estimated to be more than 30 copper delle, and even when the business is not good, it is possible to only have more than 20 coins. In other words, the money that Locke took is almost close to the bar's one-day turnover.

The proprietress first glanced at the middle-aged man who led a group of people in with some fear, and then saw Locke coming up to check out. She smiled at Locke flatteringly, and said to him that she would come again next time. Locke nodded, glanced at the group of slightly cramped people, and greeted his men out of the tavern.

However, as soon as he walked out of the tavern, there were faintly murmurs of scolding in the strong local accent of Charlot and the voices of women crying and begging. Locke looked back and saw that four or five of the poor people blocked the door of the tavern, so that no one could see what was inside. Locke was stunned, he wanted to see what these people were going to do. Locke looked at the ragged Charloh poor people blocking the door. These low-class poor people with dark complexions and only skin and bones actually blocked his sight. Although he didn't disrespect himself, he dared to block his sight. Locke was angry. . Under Locke's increasingly sharp gaze, the gatekeepers couldn't stand it anymore, and they withdrew their bodies timidly, revealing a gap that could be seen inside.

I saw a slightly strong Charlo poor in the tavern grabbing a package from the tavern owner. The tavern owner was crying and saying something to the leading middle-aged man, but the middle-aged man was indifferent, and a few malnourished around him. The boy held a few copper delles in his hands and counted them excitedly. This is the price he just paid for the drink, Locke thought.

"What are you doing!" Locke suddenly shouted coldly. The slightly noisy voice in the tavern suddenly fell silent. Locke's subordinates, who had just walked a few steps outside the tavern, also heard the unkind voice of the boss, and turned around and walked back. Although they were drunk, they were also soldiers. They woke up a lot for the first time. They followed the boss's gaze and looked in. They understood in their hearts that the soldiers began to gear up. This is the rhythm of teaching people.

The cry of the glamorous proprietress also stopped, and she looked at the Faustain Kingdom officer with a hint of masculinity outside the tavern. She knew Locke. It was said that he was an officer with a small background and strength. He had come to her to drink a few times. He was different from the general rough man. He was an easy-going and temperamental man. The glamorous proprietress has a good impression of Locke. Is he going to help me? The glamorous proprietress Xia Qian suddenly longed in her heart.

"Sir, this is an internal matter in our town of Giza, are you alright?" Perhaps it was frightened by Locke's cold voice, or the pressure from the surrounding Faustain Kingdom soldiers was too great. After being silent for a while, the middle-aged man had to ask.

Locke squinted his eyes with gloomy eyes, and slowly walked into the tavern. His men followed. Kane and Hans gave a kick to the poor people who were still guarding the entrance of the tavern to let them go away. Locke walked to the front desk next to the poor Charlois who was grabbing the package with the glamorous proprietress. Locke's height of 1.75 meters put a lot of pressure on the slightly hunched, malnourished guy who was only 1.7 meters tall. He and the proprietress were deadlocked. His hand suddenly shivered and loosened, and the package was pulled away in an instant. "Wow", there was the sound of a piece of copper coins falling, it was estimated that there were 30 coins, and there were also a few pieces of women's underwear and clothes that were slightly wider. Well, It should belong to this charming lady boss.

"Crack", Locke first gave the guy who grabbed the boss's package a loud slap, and threw him straight out, and then slowly turned around and looked at the middle-aged man who led a group of Charlot poor. "Sir, you..." What the middle-aged man wanted to say, "Crack", another slap in the face, Locke has no mercy, but the middle-aged man still had some strength, and he didn't get out like the previous one. Instead, Locke pulled out a few teeth and bent over to cover his face. These two slaps seemed to be a signal, and the brothers under Locke rolled up their sleeves one after another, and taught the gang in the tavern a vivid lesson. Yard kicked the young man who was holding a few bronzes next to him. Instead, Hans raised the two thin guys like a brown bear, and his arms folded together to make them have a close contact. Kane slapped the poor Charlois in the two taverns from start to finish. He was learning from Locke, and even this kid Phil dragged a man about his age to hit.
