Chapter 96 The tea shop owner and his son

After comforting Wile and having dinner, Werther went upstairs to the bedroom and continued to practice the basic skills of the fourth level of magic. He practiced until midnight before falling asleep.

The next day, Wile's spirits were better, and he and Ivan recruited workers for the construction workshop. There were ten people who applied for the job, and together with the long-term workers of the new farm, more than ten people should be enough.

Werther told them about the precautions, and Ivan took them to buy building materials, and then picked a location to start building the workshop. Since some of these workers knew how to build ordinary small houses, they did not need Lina's help.

Lina left the tailor shop last night and went shopping outside. She came back early in the morning and was sleeping in her bedroom.

Seeing the workshop being built smoothly, Werther was very pleased.

"We in Daybreak Town are really capable. But do any of you know how to handle cotton and wool?"

Witte looked at the workers expectantly, but to his surprise, no one stood up and said that they knew the technology in this area.

"Haha, it doesn't matter. Let's keep building. I will find someone who understands this." Witte said, scratching the back of his head.

Wile glanced at Werther: "Are you sure?"

"Well, you forgot what I told you yesterday. There is a high probability that we can find such people in Dawn Town, but if we can't find them, we can only send people to neighboring towns to learn."

"I remembered, Your Highness, are we going to find such a person now?"

"Of course, leave this to Ivan first, let's go first."

"But how to find it?" Wile asked helplessly.

"We'll find out soon."

Werther knew in his heart that at such times, the parchment would give guidance.

Sure enough, a few seconds later I heard the voice of the parchment: "Go to the tea shop on the south side of the town street and look for the boss there."

Werther smiled at Wiler and said, "Now let's go to the tea shop."

"Yes, Your Highness. However, you promised me before to help me find that girl." Wile intertwined his two fingers with a slightly shy expression.

"I did promise you, why don't I help you take a look with your superpower eyes now." Witte whispered, "In order to prevent others from discovering it, we'd better go to my bedroom or your bedroom."

Wile nodded excitedly and said, "I agree, let's go to His Highness's bedroom."

Werther took Wile to his room, carefully locked the door, and turned on his super power eye.

"Explain to me what the girl you like looks like."

"She has long, light yellow hair, styled into a low ponytail, and her hair is parted in the middle. Her eyes are sea blue. She is wearing a black and brown riding outfit and black boots." Wile

Remembering.

"Wait a minute." Werther interrupted him and said, "Listening to the dress you described, are you sure she is a girl? Why do I feel like a teenager?"

Wile nodded with dull eyes: "She looks like a girl at first glance. She is so beautiful."

"Okay then, I'll look for you for you."

Witte opened his superpower eyes and could see all the scenes in Daybreak Town instantly. But there were too many people and he couldn't find them for a while.

Ten minutes passed. Werther closed his superpower eyes and shook his head at Wiler: "There are too many people and we still can't find the girl you mentioned. We can only look for her slowly."

Wile sighed in disappointment: "Let's look for it when we have the chance."

"Now, please accompany me to the tea shop first.

.”

"Yes, Your Highness."

They soon arrived at the tea shop. There were a few customers drinking tea in the room, and the boss was making desserts inside.

Werther inadvertently glanced at the black tea and coffee on the table, which looked pretty good. The desserts displayed on the counter, including waffles, jam pies, etc., looked similar to those made by Potter in the castle, and they looked a little tempting.

Slightly fragrant.

However, what surprised them was that the guests only drank tea and no one bought desserts. In this way, the small shop could only earn one or two copper coins a day, or even a few iron coins.

"Your Highness, you see, the desserts here don't seem to be very popular." Wile whispered in Werther's ear.

"I noticed it too, and I don't know why." Witte said.

However, the boss not far from them seemed to have very good hearing. He heard the conversation between Werther and Wile, and got up and walked towards them.

"He just called you His Highness, are you His Highness the Lord?" the boss asked Witte, his expression neither humble nor arrogant, and his tone calm.

"Yes."

"Then I can tell you why I can't sell the desserts in this small shop." The boss stared at Werther with a pair of sea-blue eyes, and his expression became serious.

"Why is that?" For some reason, Werther felt a little nervous.

The boss sighed: "It's not because of the bread workshop you opened. Those breads are so delicious and so cheap. For the people of Daybreak Town, those new varieties of bread can be used as both staple food and dessert.

Most of the people in Daybreak Town are poor, and since they have new varieties of bread as a choice, naturally no one will be willing to buy the desserts in my store."

"So that's it." Witte looked at the boss apologetically, "I didn't think that much at the time. I just hoped that the people of Daybreak Town would live a better life."

"I know His Highness the Lord has good intentions, so I don't have any complaints, even though my tea shop has barely made any money in the past month or so."

Although the tea shop owner said this, he looked at Werther with obvious resentment that he could not vent.

Werther suddenly remembered that the parchment had led him to the tea shop owner. Maybe the owner would have skills in processing cotton and wool.

"Sir, do you know how to handle cotton and wool?" Witte asked, "I recently have plans to run a cotton workshop and a wool workshop. If you know these skills, I will leave the workshop to you. I will

I’ll give you a reasonable salary every month.”

The tea shop owner's eyes lit up, but he still said arrogantly: "I did open a cotton and wool workshop in a neighboring town many years ago, and I still remember these techniques. It's just that I gave up because of some personal matters.

That’s why I opened this tea shop. Now that you want me to continue processing cotton and wool, I’m afraid I still have to think about it.”

"It doesn't matter what conditions you put forward," said Werther, "as long as I can do it."

The owner of the tea shop stared at the floor for a while, then looked at Witte: "I don't have high requirements for wages. I will help you run the cotton and wool workshops, and I will also help you take care of the apprentices. Only one gold coin per month is enough.

.”

Werther nodded quickly and said: "Of course it's no problem, sir."

"But, I haven't promised to help you yet. In order to ensure your sincerity, I need to give you a test." The owner of the tea shop looked very serious. It seemed that he really wanted to test Werther's sincerity.

"What test?"

Werther raised his eyebrows nervously.

The owner of the tea shop turned sideways, stretched out his arm and pointed at all the desserts in front of him and said: "If you can eat all these unsold desserts within an hour, I will agree to your request."

Werther was shocked. Such an arrogant person dared to speak to the lord like this and put forward such embarrassing conditions! I really don't want to agree to his test, but now he is the only one who can help me run the cotton and wool workshop.

Werther gritted his teeth and said, "I promise you, bring all these desserts to the table now."

Wile held Werther's arm nervously and said: "Your Highness, so many desserts will fill your stomach. The worst we can do is find someone who can handle cotton and wool. Don't agree to this person's rude request."

"It doesn't matter Wile, you have to endure hardships to become a master. If we miss this gentleman, I don't know how long it will take us to find the next person who knows those skills." After Witte comforted Wile, he turned to

The tea shop owner said, "Please take out all the desserts. I will sit at the table in front."

"Yes, your highness, the lord." The tea shop owner entered the inner room again and called out a rather elegant young man.

"He is my son, his name is Gor, and he is a guard in Dark City. He is on vacation in Daybreak Town recently, so he often helps me with some chores. He will help His Highness put the desserts in place, and will also help His Highness with some chores.

Your Highness will prepare tea."

This young man has long, light yellow hair, parted in the middle and styled into a ponytail. At the same time, his sea-blue eyes are particularly bright. His delicate and beautiful facial features look like a heroic girl. If he hadn't been wearing men's clothing

, his temperament is like a man, and coupled with the introduction from the tea shop owner, others can easily think that he is a girl.

Gore saluted Werther politely and said: "Hello, Your Highness, my father has caused you trouble. He is really willful, and I can't persuade him."

"Gol, he looks like an outstanding young man." Werther praised, "It doesn't matter. Since your father made the request, I will just do my best. Who made him so capable, haha~"

Wait, this boy looks a bit... like Wile's dream girl, but it can't be such a coincidence.

Werther turned his head carefully and saw the disappointed and petrified look.

Well, it seems like Gore is really the "girl" that Wile likes!

"Your Highness, Lord." Gore leaned into Werther's ear and whispered, "What's wrong with your servant? Why are you looking at me with such resentful eyes?"

"Well~ he must have been stimulated by something." Werther pulled Wile's sleeve sheepishly, and Wile still stared at Gore with his mouth wide open and plaintively.

"Haha, since he is crazy, then we don't need to worry about him~" Werther sat in front of the table and said with a smile, "We can start."

Gore looked at Werther with soft eyes: "Since His Highness the Lord said so, I will start serving desserts."

The owner of the tea shop looked at Werther coldly and said coldly: "I will set the time. Don't forget, Your Highness, but it will be within an hour~"

Victor nodded: "I understand."

He cheered himself up in his mind. Soon, Gor brought over two plates of pies, and he held two plates of waffles in his hands.

"No need to do this, just spread the desserts all over the table."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Gore did as Werther said. Werther took a deep breath and started working with the knife and fork.
