Today's "Beer and Bonfire" pub has been extremely lively since noon, with the sound of cheerful clinking of wooden wine glasses coming and going, and even the noisy crowds sounding like a festival celebration.
The reason is naturally because Liu Yifei is hosting a dinner for all members of the first class here today.
The time progress of the battle is different from that of the normal mode. For Liu Yifei, just three weeks has already spanned a quarter in the eyes of these aboriginal NPCs.
Think about the mood you felt when you stepped into the recruitment center on the first day... Think about the awe when you saw the squad leader's methods for the first time... Think about the hard work while wearing the militia training uniform day and night...
Finally, they passed all the tests and became the glorious graduates of Erathia's first phase of militia training.
Although it is not a great status, for these young people who are still slightly young, it is already a small step in their life journey... and this small "step" is also a creation that is unexpected by everyone.
A miracle happened - the whole class successfully graduated and no one was left behind!
I don’t know if it’s because of Instructor Brent’s careful teachings, or because he was forced to grit his teeth and move forward by the terrifying intimidation of a certain “devil squad leader”, or else it’s because every member of this class is very up to date.
In short, in the past, the elimination rate was more than 70% at the worst time, and the passing rate at the best time was only 70% to 80% for the first phase of militia training. That is to say, young people from all over the place gathered in large numbers, but they were also most likely to die due to lack of food.
In the stage of hard work and voluntary giving up, the first class of this period actually graduated with "perfect" standards!
Forty people came together on the first day of assembly, and forty people passed together on the last day of graduation... Although everyone just barely passed due to some reasons that are difficult to explain in detail, such results are enough to make everyone
The members who graduated at the same time feel extremely honored~
We made history...
"For this glorious class! You are all doing well!" Liu Yifei once again raised his wine glass to the crowd and said.
"Cheers~~~"
The young men congratulated each other with excitement, then clinked glasses happily with their friends around them, and then all of them couldn't wait to "ton ton ton".
Each person can have up to ten cups of foaming beer, seasonal vegetables for three people, and standard meat for one person. Although it is not a big meal, and it is far from a luxurious feast, for these young people, it is
It was also a rare opportunity to let go of the opportunity to eat and drink.
After all, whether it is training or joining the army, food and other things are all arranged by the military camp. Regardless of taste, at least there is absolutely no problem in terms of portion size and nutritional standards. This is the minimum requirement to ensure the effectiveness of soldiers' exercise.
But after leaving the military camp, everyone has to run for their own future and food~
To put it bluntly, most of the thirty or so young people present here are just civilians at the lowest level of Erathia society. Some of them are from worse backgrounds and are not far from the "poor". On weekdays, they can be as good as they are now.
There is not much time to eat and drink...
Those classmates who were unable to come were basically from small villages in other places. Now that we were about to enter the busy autumn harvest season, they couldn't stay outside for too long, so they had to go straight home after the training camp.
For these companions who had to keep running for their own food, Liu Yifei asked Sang Le to transfer 1 silver coin to them on his behalf... Of course, Sang Le was just an advance payment, and Liu Yifei had already settled the debt with the little devil before today. Account settled.
Don't underestimate this mere 1 silver coin. For those young people in remote villages, it is enough to consume their most basic food rations for more than half a month (the minimum daily food consumption standard for ordinary human NPCs). As a person who has only been around for a short time, For two-month strangers, Liu Yifei's kindness even made some of the sensitive little ones blush.
The remaining guys who can come to this celebration will not be at a loss. Ten cups of foaming beer per person in the budget alone costs one silver coin. Meat and vegetables are not cheap compared to whole grain bread. ~
And among the people celebrating happily, in the small crowd surrounding Liu Yifei, there was a guy with a sad face who was being laughed at in turn:
"Hey~ Renner, why do you always have such a sad look on your face like a stooge from the second shift?"
"That's right! Letting you make an exception to attend our first class gathering is already a kindness from the monitor! Do you still have any dissatisfaction?"
"Hahahaha~ It must be because their second class was eliminated a lot of people, this guy must feel embarrassed looking at our first class~"
The crowd couldn't help but burst into laughter again.
In fact, the reason why Renner is here is very simple...he has to keep accounts!
Yesterday, Geralt exchanged work for work, and Renner's father, the miser, the extremely money-grubbing Mo, agreed to "treat me to a meal." At first, Imo thought that Geralt was too talkative. After learning the details of this "meal", my face almost turned green...
That's not to say that the swords Liu Yifei gave him weren't worth the price.
Standard armaments that meet the requirements are always in demand, and the pricing standard is in "gold coins". As long as you get rid of five or six of the nine swords Liu Yifei gave you, you can get back all the costs of the blacksmith shop. , even including this meal! The rest is pure profit...
But the problem is that we haven’t taken action yet!
It's like Imo has to pay for these little devils to eat out of his own pocket!
Although he knew that he had made a lot of money from this transaction, but seeing that the little silver cutie he had saved was about to be paid out for a small package, Imo really felt heartbroken just thinking about it, and in the end he had to send his son to be the " "Supervisory Army" - although everyone's food standards were announced early in the morning, there was still a little guy here who couldn't stand whether he was drunk and took the opportunity to eat and drink as much as possible! Those were all the hard-earned money that Imo had saved little by little, and he couldn't bear to part with them... …
So Renner was in tragedy~
Coming to such a happy and feasting occasion, he had to keep accounts, so he couldn't let go of eating and drinking...
Even when he stares at others asking for food and drinks from the bar, he silently takes out a small notebook to write something down, which makes others roll their eyes frequently, but who can understand his pain?
He was even called a "walk-in guy" because of his status as a member of the second squad. How did he get here?
Depressed~
In this extremely depressing moment, there are really not enough words to express to outsiders, so I can only raise my head and continue "ton ton ton".
The crowd couldn't help but burst into cheerful laughter again...
