Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“No, why is it canceled?! Such a great celebration!” Alan asked anxiously.
Seeing that he was a little anxious, Kramer raised his hand to comfort him, then he said, “The main reason is that everyone is not interested in the old celebration ceremony. We want to innovate, but seeing that the preparation time is getting shorter and shorter and we still have no suitable ideas, everyone is a little discouraged. They feel that they won’t be able to make it this year... sigh.”
Alan let out a sigh of relief. So that was the reason. He was so scared that he had to cancel for some other reason. However, if there were no good plans, that would be easy. He came here specifically to solve this problem.
“Oh, if that’s the reason, governor, administrative officer, would you like to hear my plan?” Alan suggested to the two of them casually.
Kramer and Severino looked at each other, not understanding why Alan was so interested in this ancient festival.
“Ahem... I have some not-fully-developed ideas about the Harvest Festival.”
“In the past, the food for the Harvest Festival was prepared by everyone. This tradition can remain. The governor’s residence can prepare a field, place some tables and chairs, and build a simple shelter. This area would be a rest area and dining area.”
“Put all the food that everyone prepared there and share it. I can provide drinks for everyone for free and hire a few waiters to help the residents refill their drinks.”
Kramer raised his hand and asked, “Provide drinks for free? Little Alan, do you know how much alcohol is usually consumed during a celebration? Are you sure you can afford it?” 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢
“Don’t worry, I have no problem with it. Other than the magic wine, I can provide unlimited quantities of the other two types of drinks on the day of the celebration,” Alan promised.
“Then there are the events. After the ceremony, the governor’s mansion could hold some interesting competitions. For children, it could be suitable events such as Horseshoe Pitching. For the adult males, you can have gladiatorial competitions and shooting competitions. There can also be competitive eating events. The females will be the chefs and the group that eats the most will win... or other interesting games. Anyway, the celebration is just for fun.”
“At night, a drinking competition is a good choice. As long as you win in an event, you will get a small gift. This way, everyone will be happy.”
“At the end of the celebration, the governor can also act as the presenter and give prizes to everyone who wins in the competitions!”
Kramer and Sevilino were shocked by Alan’s wild imagination. After hearing this, they could already imagine how lively Rock City would become on that day of the celebration.
“If there is a drinking competition, the prize that I can provide is a chance to taste new drinks from the tavern for a whole year. During the year, whenever a new drink comes out, the winner would be the first to drink it and drink it for free once. ”
After thinking for a while, Alan added another reward.
“Hiss... This reward makes me want to participate in the competition! According to the rate that little Alan comes out with new drinks, I can drink more than 10 times a year.” Sevilino sucked in a breath of cold air. He looked tempted. It seemed that he wanted to participate.
“Come, come, little Alan, tell me all the details of your plan. We’ll host it according to your plan. With the remaining time, we need to hurry up and get it done!” Kramer carefully thought about Alan’s plan, he felt that it was indeed creative and had the possibility of becoming a reality.
“Okay. So this is what I’m thinking, for the prizes...”
Alan was still talking about his plan in detail to the governor and the administrative officer.
On the other side of the main street, Yupanji was following the two customers to the tavern.
Dorje was busy in his shop.
Recently, everyone on the commercial street was saying that there was a stranger on the street. He had also seen this person before.
Coincidentally, when he was looking after his shop today, he saw that the man who was constantly asking for information was following behind two regular customers of the tavern, but the two people walking in front of him did not notice him at all.
Dorje was staring in the direction they passed, watching them turn the street corner towards the direction of Alan’s place. When he saw them, he was a little worried that the stranger would harm Alan, so he left his shop and hurried to the blacksmith’s shop to find Wayne.
But what he didn’t expect was that when the two of them hurried to the tavern, they saw a scene that confused them.
..
Yupanki, who followed the two customers to the tavern, watched them enter the tavern while he was stunned at the door.
He couldn’t understand what was written on the plaque at the door but he could feel that the materials used in the wooden tavern were all made from extremely rare World Trees. Even the windows were made from a crystal-like material.
Under the sunlight, it was particularly dazzling and he could not see what was inside at all.
What he did not know was that the windows were made of one of the earliest materials in Alan’s previous life, glazed glass.
Although authentic glazed glass was not as transparent as glass, it was no less ornamental than crystal, and it was no less practical than glass. To the people of this world, glazed glass and glass were new things that no one had seen before.
After he suppressed the curiosity in his heart and entered the door, he looked around. There was a sea of wooden tables made from World Trees, the guests were using glass goblets, and magic lamps were nailed to the wall. Everything made him feel terrified and shocked.
“I didn’t expect Princess Olivia to let me come to such a tavern. So many luxurious things are gathered in a remote tavern. Is this reasonable?”
“Could this tavern belong to the Princess? But it doesn’t look like it. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have said what she did when she told me to come here.” Yupanki was constantly evaluating the situation.
The customers who were drinking in the tavern saw Yupanki’s stunned expression at the door. They knew that this was his first time in this tavern. He must have been shocked by the expensive decorations. His expression would be even worse once he drank.
The customers whispered to each other in groups of two or three, waiting to see this stranger make a fool of himself. After all, they were all shocked before. 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m
Alan served the two customers who just came in and was putting the tray back on the bar counter when he looked up and saw the man who was standing at the door in a daze.
Strangely, he felt that the man looked familiar. His temperament was very similar to Stanton, the cold, big guy.
When Yupanki saw Alan standing at the bar, their eyes met instantly.. Alan was sure that this was the first time he saw this face, but the other person’s eyes showed that seemed to know him.
