In her previous life, Su Nian lived in vain. Her parents favored sons over daughters, only treasuring her elder brother!
She gave her all for her family, only to end up with nothing!
Up...
The bar was noisy, people were talking and laughing loudly without restraint, and drinking beer from their glasses in big gulps.
Looking at the golden wine in the cup and the brightly colored sausages and barbecued meats on the table, the bearded men couldn't help but drool. Out of man's instinct, they felt that this thing was delicious.
Chu Beichen led everyone and found a large table by the window.
Then they ordered a large portion of sausage and barbecue, a beer for everyone, and a salad for Su Nian.
The bearded men looked curiously at the diners around them eating and drinking. Compared with the quiet cedar forest, this place was extremely noisy, yet it made people's hearts beat fast.
Since the hotel is located close to the pier, half of the people in the hotel are inexperienced travelers like Big Beard.
Those knowledgeable guests did not take the bearded man's curious look seriously, but continued to talk about the new news.
"Have you checked the reward at the palace gate? The reward for finding the orb has increased again!"
"My God, didn't it already reach one million dinars last month?"
“Now it has risen to five million!”
"If God had so much money and bought a farm, he could live the life of a nobleman!"
"That only works if you can find the ball!"
Hearing the two people's discussion, Su Nian and Chu Beichen couldn't help but look at each other. They felt that the ball with a reward in front of the palace gate should be the golden ball in their hands.
Judging from the consumption of this hotel, Chu Beichen already knew that five million dinars was very valuable and enough to change a family's life.
No wonder some people would run to the cedar forest in the cold winter to look for balls regardless of the danger!
The bearded village chief and his companions were not paying attention to the golden ball. They were more concerned with the beer, meat, snacks, and the barmaid who was twisting her waist and singing on the stage.
Soon, the food they ordered was served on the table.
Chu Beichen picked up his cup and greeted the bearded men, "Village Chief, thank you for your care when you were in Huodong Village!"
The bearded man waved his hands in panic, "This is nothing!"
Everyone's stomachs were already empty after days of traveling, and when they saw the hot food, they didn't care about others. They gulped down a few gulps of beer and ate something.
Both sausages and barbecue are processed foods. Cedar Forest also does barbecue, but the barbecue they make lacks the necessary marinating seasonings and cooking methods, and the taste is unsatisfactory.
Although the barbecue in the bar is not very sophisticated, it is at least crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside.
The bearded men were impressed after tasting it, and in addition to the meat, Chu Beichen also ordered a large plate of whole wheat bread and mashed potatoes.
The food was so delicious they had never tasted before, coupled with hunger, that the bearded men didn't even bother to look up and just ate like crazy. After two-thirds of the food was gone, everyone took a breath and exclaimed in unison that it was delicious.
At this time, Su Nian and Chu Beichen had already heard most of the news around them, and the search for the golden sphere was the most discussed topic.
Some people were discussing the latest events that happened in the city. It turned out that this place was named after Gangwa and the river, and was called Gangwa City.
The lord of Gangwa City is the king. This king does not seem to have much of a concept of superiors and subordinates. His subjects all call him by his name, but only add the word "king" after his name to show respect.
King Puer has been in Gangwa City for decades. His arrival has brought about earth-shaking changes in the city. Just a few decades ago, the south bank of Gangwa River and the cedar forest were the same.
Now the society of Gangwa River is divided into several classes, including nobles, commoners and knights, that is, soldiers.
Since Su Nian and Chu Beichen were anxious to exchange the golden ball in their hands with the king, they needed to meet King Poole.
From everyone's description, Su Nian and his wife could tell that Shi Kun, who had once visited Huodong Village, should be the knight.
Originally, Su Nian wanted to find Shi Kun first, and then let Shi Kun introduce them to King Puer.
This idea was opposed by Chu Beichen. They only met Shi Kun by chance, and in such a difficult environment, they had no idea what kind of character Shi Kun was.
The reward for the golden ball is so high now. What if Shi Kun finds out that they have the golden ball and becomes tempted?
Money can move people's hearts, but Chu Beichen has always been unwilling to test human nature.
After hearing Chu Beichen's words, Su Nian nodded in understanding.
From the discussions of these customers, it can be heard that King Poole is not arrogant, so it should be easy to meet him. Even if not through Shi Kun, they should be able to find a way to connect with King Poole.
Everyone was listening to the content that interested them, and at this moment two customers suddenly started fighting. They had completed a task together and were arguing over the bounty.
There were several hundred-dollar bills on the table, and the two men drew their weapons and started fighting in the hotel.
The bearded man frowned, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to go forward to help the weaker one.
But Chu Beichen held him tightly, "Village Chief, there are special people maintaining order here, we don't need to take action!"
Soon the police in charge of public security rushed over, took away the people who were fighting, and confiscated the money on the table.
Seeing the tough methods used by the police, the bearded man couldn't help but stick out his tongue. "These people's management methods are much tougher than ours!"
Chu Beichen smiled. "Of course. This city has more people than Cedar Forest. If we don't use such tough measures, it will be difficult to control them!"
The bearded man nodded and turned to his fellow villagers. "Did you all hear that? Don't provoke others when you go out. Of course, if someone provokes you, we must fight back without hesitation to maintain the dignity of the Cedar Forest!"
The villagers agreed in unison.
At this moment, a loud laugh came from the table next to them. "Xue Songlin, are you really from that damn place? My God, I heard that there's not even paper to wipe your ass. How do you survive there?"
This was extremely rude. The bearded man had just taught his men not to provoke others, but now he couldn't help but slam the table and stood up, "It's none of your business how I live!"
There were two people sitting at the table with stern expressions. They saw that the bearded man and his men were dressed in a rustic manner and wanted to bully these country people.
Most outsiders are still very timid and cautious.
Generally speaking, outsiders can tolerate the difficulties faced by the residents of Gangwa City and just put up with it.
No one expected that the bearded man had a rough appearance and a bad temper. When he first arrived, he dared to slam the table and argue with the residents of Gangwa City.
