The black cat was licking its paws, and there were seven or eight fainted unfortunates lying on the ground. She meowed a few times when she saw Lorraine, and a red-haired goblin flew out from behind, flapped its wings and shouted softly: "
The master said that no one is allowed to use the back door."
Ah... Lorraine has never seen a strange little goblin. But he did not intend to give up, but pleadingly said: "Hello, madam. My name is Lorraine, Eve Lorraine. I am
Those who came out of the tavern must go in now."
Hearing the name, the red-haired goblin raised his head slightly, looked at it, and asked: "Eve? This is a girl's name."
"Yes, I am a girl." Lorraine touched her short hair and simple clothes, and said nervously and awkwardly: "This is more convenient, otherwise it is easy to get into trouble. But I can work like a boy."
"Oh, but I still can't let you in." The red-haired goblin refused mercilessly, "Just wait until tomorrow. Maybe someone will look for you."
"Why?" Lorraine asked, crying, "Did I do something wrong?"
"Maybe you are a thief." A blue-haired goblin appeared.
"Maybe he's a liar." "Green Hair" also popped up.
"Maybe she was just hungry and couldn't get in through the front door, so she wanted to go in through the back door." 'Purple Hair' argued.
"Maybe she wants to charm her master, even though she is not beautiful." "Yellow Hair" shouted.
Seven little fairies appeared one after another, flying around and making noisy noises.
Lorraine was made dizzy by these goblins and was about to cry, "No..., don't be like this. I'm not a thief, let alone a liar. I have a family to support, and I need a job. Otherwise, my family
People will starve to death and freeze to death.
You are certainly not without purpose in inviting so many people to dinner tonight. You are selecting people, right? I can definitely do it. Please, let me do anything."
The black cat yawned, as if he had turned a blind eye to the quarrel or was accustomed to it. The goblins were still quarreling, and the topic of the quarrel changed many times, and it soon turned into a fruitless argument about who was the favorite of the owner.
How could Lorraine wait any longer after this? She still wanted to beg, but suddenly she saw a translucent spirit slave emerging from the back door under the light of a torch, and she looked around.
The goblins immediately stopped arguing and shouted "Master". The "orange-haired" one shouted first: "This is the ninth guy who wants to enter the pub through the back door. We successfully stopped her."
The back door opened, and a tall young man came out. The word 'she' in common language is different from 'him'. The young man stared at Lorraine sharply and looked him up and down - flat chest, yellow face, withered hair, short, a bit
Not like a girl either.
Lorraine said quickly: "Sir, I want to go in. I want to find a job."
"What is your name?"
"Eve Lorraine. I..., I am a girl." Lorraine thought of the conversation she had just heard and suddenly realized something. She arranged her short hair, pulled the corners of her clothes, and tried her best to
Give yourself a good image.
"Come to the tavern tomorrow." The young man turned around after saying that, "It's too chaotic right now, I don't have time to take care of you."
Lorraine shouted: "Sir, can we talk now? I still have a family, my parents, my brothers and sisters, but we have no money for food and accommodation. We will be kicked out of the hotel tomorrow."
The young man turned his head again, took out a coin and threw it out, saying bluntly: "Don't talk so much nonsense, I said it will be tomorrow."
Lorraine stretched out her hands to catch the coin, spread it out on the palm of her hand and saw that it was a bright yellow gold coin with the image of Woking, the goddess of wealth, printed on it. When she looked up again, the young man had disappeared and walked away freely.
Oh my god, gold coins, they are gold coins as soon as you take action!
Generous, generous, generous!
This kind of man insists on getting it!
The girl Lorraine was elated and shouted ecstatically: "Thank you, sir. Thank you so much. I will definitely come tomorrow, I will definitely come. I can do anything you want me to do. I promise, I can do anything for you."
There was a clang, and only the sound of the back door being closed responded to Lorraine. The seven little goblins followed the young man away, but the black cat was still lying lazily on the lid of the trash can.
"Thank you." Lorraine was very happy. She waved to the black cat and smiled: "I have good luck today, and I wish you the same."
Hahaha..., saved.
Lorraine returned to the hotel with a full sense of happiness. She didn't sleep all night, clutching the gold coins in her palm and keeping her eyes open until the next day. Because she really couldn't sleep, her mind was buzzing with thousands of thoughts, but she didn't know what she was thinking.
What.
The scene of throwing gold coins at the back door of the tavern appeared repeatedly in Lorraine's mind. She kept smiling sweetly, and her heart felt happier than ever before.
When she heard heavy footsteps in the basement of the hotel and the boss came into the basement to collect the rent, swearing, Lorraine realized that the night had passed. She got up from the thatch on the ground and carefully opened the door of the small compartment.
The air in the basement was turbid and there was zero light. The hotel owner held an oil lamp and kicked the door of each compartment with his foot, cursing and shouting: "Get up, poor people, it's time to pay the rent. I have no money."
Just get out of here."
Behind the boss were two stout men with equally vicious voices. They were never merciful to the poor, and would fight if they couldn't collect the rent. No pleading was in vain, and they would just throw people on the street and let them die of cold and hunger.
Every cubicle in the basement of the hotel was crowded with people. There was no dignity or reputation to live in such a place. But many people couldn't even afford the rent of five copper coins a day, so they had to kneel down in vain to let the boss
Show mercy.
Noises and pleas came one after another, mixed with the muffled sound of swinging sticks. This cycle continued every day, and the end of many people's lives began.
Until a crisp voice stood up and shouted: "Boss, I will pay the rent for everyone here."
What?
The innkeeper turned his head, raised the oil lamp, and illuminated a thin boy and a bright yellow coin in the boy's palm.
Gold.
"Boy, where did you steal it from?" the innkeeper yelled and reached out to grab it. The stout boy also stared wide-eyed and quickly stepped forward to block the target.
The emaciated Lorraine stood still, but shouted loudly: "I got a very good job, and this is the advance salary I got. A nobleman expressed his favor to me, do you dare to touch me?"
In a world with strict hierarchies, there is a huge gap between nobles and commoners. There are a lot of laws and regulations for commoners in society, but nobles have privileges and can ignore those terrible restrictions.
The hotel owner stopped extending his hand, looked at the gold coin, and then looked at the confident face of the thin boy. He didn't dare to make a mistake for a moment. Lorraine, however, sneered disdainfully and threw away the gold coin he finally got.
go out......
It’s so refreshing, it turns out that being given from a high position is so refreshing!
