    "This smells great." The halfling wanderer twitched his nose. Following the intensity of the smell, he stretched his neck and took small steps in that direction.  ¡û,. But then Barrett's big hand grabbed the halfling's collar: "If you want to eat, wait until we are settled. Didn't the guard just make it very clear? There will be another trading day tomorrow.  "It doesn't matter if it's too late today." "Hiss" Noodles scratched his head in embarrassment: "Hurry to the Chamber of Commerce, hurry to the Chamber of Commerce." According to the route told by the guard before, the players are very happy.  I quickly found the signboard belonging to the Boreham Chamber of Commerce on the edge of the small square.  During this festive festival that brought great joy to the town, the business of Boreham Trading Company was also quite prosperous.  Farmers from surrounding villages and manors used the gadgets they tinkered with during their off-farm time in exchange for some daily necessities that they could not produce themselves. The most common thing among them were the bundles of rough straw ropes in front of the players.  Although compared with hemp rope, straw rope has disadvantages such as low strength and poor waterproofing.  But its price is also much lower than that of hemp rope.  In daily life, this cheap product also has broad application space.  Especially among the civilian class, they prefer products that fit their own consumption capacity. Anyway, they do not have high demands in terms of load-bearing strength and waterproofness.  Quickly walking through the pile of straw ropes with some burrs, Barrett quickly handed his family crest to the counter.  The clerk who was originally counting the accounts immediately stopped holding the charcoal pen in his hand after seeing Barrett's badge.  Then he raised his head and asked: "Excuse me, who are you?" "I am Barrett from the branch family. I just came back from the Cruze Kingdom." Barrett said, showing the standard eight teeth.  After staring at Barrett for a while, the other party immediately said: "It turns out to be you, sir. I have heard a lot about your deeds in the business. But how did you get here this time?"  The waiter who said this quickly covered his mouth, and then continued: "My lord, I didn't mean to inquire about anything. What are your orders when you come to our place?" Seeing the other party's behavior, Barrett felt that that person might be  I mistakenly thought that my group had gone to the Cruze Kingdom to perform some special mission.  He shook his head at this misunderstanding: "Don't worry, it's not an issue that needs to be avoided. I went south before because of personal matters. Now that I have finally returned to China, I just need a place to stay. I wonder if the Chamber of Commerce can make some arrangements.  "My teammates and I will pay according to the market price." "It's our honor to serve you. You can go and make an agreement with the steward." The guy said, "But.  I think most likely he won¡¯t ask for it. After all, with your status in the Chamber of Commerce, you have a certain amount of reception funds every year, and that share is not easy to be used up even when you are not performing family tasks.  "Reception expenses." Barrett was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said with a wry smile: "This is the first time I have heard of it." "That's just because you have never paid attention to this issue."  Speaking of this, the guy here immediately patted his companions who were entertaining the farmers: "I'm taking this gentleman to the backyard. You can keep an eye on this place first." "Don't worry, I'm not the first to do this kind of thing.  This has been handled for the first time. When has there been any trouble?" The other guy turned around and immediately gave you a look that reassured you.  "Sir, please come with me." The waiter who came out from behind the counter made a gesture of invitation.  Barrett pointed at the players outside the door: "Don't forget that there are my companions." "Then let's go outside." After the probe found the horse held by the player, the guy immediately changed his mind and headed towards the door.  Go outside.  Under his guidance, the players bypassed the busy square in front and entered the relatively quiet alleys on the side.  However, the lanes during this festival were only relatively quiet. There were half-grown children running and laughing wildly among them. While making noise, they also used the pocket money given by their parents to add a lot of garbage to the ground. For them,  , this can be said to be the happiest time in daily life.  Beautiful wood carvings, straw toys, and even a small piece of meat pie are all sources of happiness that can make them smile.  But after the players were assigned rooms in the courtyard of the Chamber of Commerce, Barrett specifically reminded the guy: "Those war horses are very tired from the journey. So they must make up for themselves in the next few days."  As for the horse materials, please refer to the standards of the Territorial Cavalry Regiment. There is no reception fee for this." After saying this, Barrett took off a leather bag from his waist, and the sound of the gold coins in it was so clear and sweet.  .  The guy who heard the sound was attracted by the tan pocket.But then he moved his Adam's apple and said: "We will definitely do what you said. As for the issue of direct payment, I can't make the decision. You'd better go and discuss it with Manager Ingold." "  So can I take charge of Ingold now?" Barrett asked immediately.  The clerk shook his head: "Manager Ingold is temporarily meeting with the decent people over there in the town hall because of the trading day. If you want to see him, you should do it later. During this time, you and I  Your teammates can rest in the house or experience the lively trading day in Nvidia Town.¡± Barrett, who understood that this kind of thing can¡¯t be rushed, said with a smile: ¡°Well, we want to go outside now.  Look, we are going to cause trouble for you next. " "It is our job to serve you, how can we say it is causing trouble?" After saying this, the clerk immediately turned around and said, "Since you have no problem, then.  I should come. There are still many things to deal with ahead." After a brief wash in the business hall, the players immediately entered the trading day in Nvidia Town.  But as soon as he arrived at the small square, Noodles was once again attracted by the rich aroma of wheat.  Even Claudia ignored the bard's singing and swallowed.  After taking a look at the meat pie stall, Barrett naturally couldn't stop his companions: "Let's go there together. I'm afraid that country snacks like this may not satisfy you. After all, its audience makes it difficult for the material to be used.  "I don't usually pay much attention to it." "It's just about eating the original food." Claudia has her own theory about this.  It is indeed the highest level of foodie. But at the juncture of the two people talking, the halfling wanderer has already jumped up to the stall like a child: "Here are two pieces of meat pie." "Okay, two pieces of meat."  Pie." The vendor skillfully took the copper coin of noodles, and then handed the steaming meat pie on the iron plate directly to the halfling's hand.  "Hot, roll, hot" alternately alternate the patties in your hands to let them cool down slightly, then slowly chew one of the noodles.  Then he refused and said: "Hey, this tastes pretty good. How can you say it's so bad, Barrett?" The outermost dough is fried to a crispy and delicious texture, and there is always a "katz" sound when you take a bite.  Biting into the inside a little bit, it is different from the outside.  As for the dough, this part still contains some moisture and is a little elastic.  At the same time, the densely packed pores of different sizes further increase the softness and elasticity.  The dough itself is already crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.  But the only drawback is the lack of additives such as alkaline noodles, which makes the dough have a slightly discordant sour taste after chewing a few more mouthfuls.  The meat filling inside is made of mutton mixed with some cheap light herbs, which makes it appear tender and juicy.  Unfortunately, all the meat animals used as raw materials have been castrated.  This makes the mutton have an extra fishy smell on top of its original mutton smell.  And the weak flavor of vanilla was not enough to cover up the negative impact.  If we ask those diners who are particular about their food to be careful about their food, many of them may find this hard to swallow. However, for noodles who have been in this game for a long time, this kind of food can be said to be worthy of the review.  It¡¯s pretty good, and it¡¯s a rare delicacy for ordinary people.  "I didn't expect that such a small place also has its own special snacks." Claudia, who was also chewing meat patties on the side, was obviously quite satisfied with the snacks that had to be made with limited materials in order to control costs.  Sometimes Barrett really couldn't understand the specific taste of this young lady.  At this moment, he was looking around at the extremely lively square, and then he threw out his copper plate to buy a piece of meat pie.  Then he narrowed his eyes and thought: This taste has really not changed in more than 200 years. I wonder if it is a family tradition. "Barrett, what do you think? It's obviously not as bad as you said, right?" The noodles on the side began to drum again.  .  Looking at the halfling who was less than his waistband, Barrett shrugged: "It's just country fun. And if you go to the trading days in nearby towns a few more times, you will find that this stall can always be as good as going to the market."  Show up there on time.¡± A food stall like this doesn¡¯t have many customers on weekdays.  After all, the living conditions of civilians are there. Even if you are greedy for a moment, you still have to consider the livelihood of your family.  Only on trading days will they spend their money relatively generously.  Therefore, it is really unreliable for a stall owner to make a living in a small town.  Fortunately, although the trading days in each small town are often only 12 days, there are many small towns nearby.  Moreover, there are personnel factors involved in traveling from chair to business, so they often choose to stagger the visits.  ?So these snack sellers, like the gypsies, travel from place to place.  Only in this way can we support ourselves and our families.  The outermost dough is fried so crispy and delicious that you can always hear the sound of "katz" when you take one bite.  Biting into the inside a little bit, it is different from the outside.  As for the dough, this part still contains some moisture and is a little elastic.  At the same time, the densely packed pores of different sizes further increase the softness and elasticity.  The dough itself is already crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.  But the only drawback is the lack of additives such as alkaline noodles, which makes the dough have a slightly discordant sour taste after chewing a few more mouthfuls.  The meat filling inside is made of mutton mixed with some cheap light herbs, which makes it appear tender and juicy.  Unfortunately, all the meat animals used as raw materials have been castrated.  This makes the mutton have an extra fishy smell on top of its original mutton smell.  And the weak flavor of vanilla was not enough to cover up the negative impact.  If we ask those diners who are particular about their food to be careful about their food, many of them may find this hard to swallow.
