0306 Apprentice
This is the first time Lorraine's family has seen gold coins. Now that Lorraine throws it out, she is even more imposing. She is obviously shorter than the hotel owner, but she is arrogant at this moment, and she feels that everyone in front of her is lower than her.
"You really won the favor of the noble master?"
"certainly."
"Is that master?"
"Do you have the right to know?"
The hotel owner asked suspiciously with the gold coins with both hands. Lorraine answered in a sensible manner and became more imposing. After not finding the flaw, the boss with yellow teeth finally grinned and was extremely happy.
"Okay, okay, you can all stay in the future until the gold coin is used up. By the way, you must be hungry, I will prepare food and hot water for you."
My heads were squeezed out from the basement, and I couldn't believe that someone had taken out a gold coin to help me. It was like a pie falling from the sky.
Lorraine's father came out of the compartment and sighed in a low voice: "Child, that's a gold coin. Our family has never made such a sum of money."
Yes, it's a lot of money.
Lorraine loosened her shoulders and replied softly: "Dad, bless me. This time someone gave me a chance to survive, and I also gave others the same chance. Ilmat is guiding me, and I will seize it at all costs."
In order to earn that gold coin, the hotel owner brought a lot of food to the residents in the basement. In order to please Lorraine, she also sent her a piece of meat.
When Lorraine saw the piece of jerky that had been left for many years, she waved disdainfully: "Give it to others, I want to eat better."
The hotel owner was even more surprised and even more dared not offend him easily.
Only Lorraine herself knew that she had already digested the food she had eaten last night, and she felt hungry now. But she knew that in this world where people eat people, she had to put her posture out and not be looked down upon.
After leaving the hotel and heading to the tavern, the two places were actually half a street away, and they arrived after walking for a while. Lorraine found that she was not the earliest, and there were people who were earlier than her, and even didn't leave overnight, blew all night in the night wind.
Lorraine brought the bread home last night, so naturally her parents couldn't eat it all. Saving food has become a deep-rooted idea in their minds. When she went out, her father forced half of the bread and said, "If you don't work, come back."
"There is nothing wrong, I can do it." Lorraine waited at the entrance of the tavern. After waiting for a few hours, she didn't wait for the tavern to open. Instead, she was waiting for people who hadn't finished their meal yesterday and wanted to continue today.
The guy who taught Lorraine to hide food last night also came. He greeted Lorraine enthusiastically and discussed how to go in and have another meal. Lorraine quietly distanced him and said nothing more.
It was not until after ten o'clock in the morning that the wooden door of the tavern slammed open. A irritable scream rang out, and the orc owner cursed, "There is no free food today. Only those who received the notice last night could come in, and everyone else got out of here."
The tavern was no longer like the feast-like decorations of last night, only the dirty tables and chairs that had not been cleaned up. The air was filled with the smell of bread and meat, which was mouth-watering.
Lorraine didn't see the tall young man last night, only a guy who called himself "Rubio" greeted him.
There were more than twenty people entering the tavern one after another. Most of them were very young, occasionally in their thirties and forties, all of whom were in a downturn. As for women, there were probably only one Lorraine.
Waiting for everyone to arrive, Rubio sat on the stool in front of the bar and shouted, "Okay, quiet. If you don't want to be kicked out, it's better to learn some rules from now on."
Most of the more than 20 people are strangers to each other. When they find that they seem to have good luck, they can't help but whisper when they are excited. But when Rubio says "quiet", everyone shut up, and no one dares to joke about their future.
"Everyone, you are lucky because a huge opportunity has emerged. My master is very rich and has a high status, beyond your imagination. He wants to recruit a group of useful talents, so he has the feast last night. Are you happy to eat?"
Faced with the sudden question, everyone laughed, mostly shy.
Rubio continued: "But the master is not satisfied with you, very dissatisfied with you. Some people lack talent, but their moral character is acceptable. Some people have a little talent, but their moral character is inferior. Some people have no talent, but their moral character is smart and clever.
Fortunately, the master is tolerant. He believes that everyone in the current world is not perfect. As long as there is plasticity, he is willing to give him a chance."
After these words, there was a slight noise in the tavern. Lorraine glanced around and found that those who had hidden food last night also entered the tavern. She didn't understand why even people with poor character were accommodated.
Rubio continued: "Last night is just the beginning. My master will train you. Of course, depending on your performance last night, you will receive different treatments.
We can solve your food and accommodation, and you can give you a weekly allowance of two silver coins. If you perform well, you will also have a bonus."
Wow..., I have two silver coins per week. Is there such a good thing in the world? Everyone looked at each other and was happy and they all felt happy.
It is common for ordinary shops to recruit apprentices, and it is good to have a lunch. As for the allowance, it is absolutely not available. I still have money to make money in studying now, and I have never heard of it.
Even Lorraine became excited - two silver coins a week, which was enough to provide food and drink for the family of five. Excellent performance and bonuses.
I want to get the bonus, I must get the bonus.
Everyone was excited, and Rubio smiled again, "Don't be happy too early, all the gifts in fate have been secretly bid for the price. How far you can go depends on your own efforts.
The master is generous, but the master is also cruel. He is willing to spend money to give others opportunities, but he hates incompetent people. There are many people who are willing to be loyal to him, so waste that cannot pass the assessment will be eliminated."
Elimination? This word is very bad. No one likes it.
"We will conduct exams every month and implement the end of the elimination. That is, the worst of you who want to stay and make a living will definitely get out of here." Rubio threw out the second rule.
This is even worse, which means internal competition. Everyone is tight-skinned and looking at each other, estimating what level they are at?
Lorraine's face turned pale in an instant, and her mind was confused. She knew very well that she had only learned some basic common words from an old pastor, and had read a book of the "God of Suffering" Irmat's 'God of Suffering', and she knew nothing else.
Rubio felt secretly happy about the changes in everyone's expressions, "How can my master's meal be that delicious? You have to suffer all the sins I have suffered, and no one can hide from it."
Someone seemed to be very confident in his ability and asked: "Sir, if we can pass the exam, what kind of job will we get in the end? I mean..., what is the salary?"
