Alan kept signaling for help to Stanton and Yupanki, who were busy at the table beside him, but was completely ignored. He turned to the mayor and the administrative officer but was also rejected. In the end, he looked helplessly at Uncle Wayne and the others, only to see a silly smile and a hand gesture of encouragement… Alan could not understand why the atmosphere between the three women had suddenly become so terrible. He had just mustered up the courage to stand up and leave, but under the…

“Boohoo...hoo...” Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Olivia’s eyes filled with tears and she burst out crying. Before Alan and Orina could think of any good ideas, they heard Olivia’s cries of grievance reverberate throughout the tavern. The other guests watched the situation curiously. Many of them did not know Olivia. Stanton and the little chambermaid pretended to be oblivious to what was happening. From what the Princess told them, it was just a conflict with a friend. It…

When she arrived outside the tavern, Olivia saw Yupanki, the knight she thought highly of, was busy working as a waiter in the tavern and looked even happy. Was this proper? Feeling humiliated, the princess entered the tavern in anger with her cheek puffed out. Alan found them the moment the three people entered. It was said that they were almost there yesterday. They arrived sooner than he had expected. “Hey, Olivia, you’re back. How was your journey, Stanton?” Alan greeted warmly.…

As the night grew darker, the guests left the tavern one after another. Only Wayne and the others remained. After Orina finished half a bottle of wine, Alan stopped her from drinking any more. Wayne, on the other hand, could not help but disapprove. “Little Alan, how can you stop a customer who hasn’t had enough from drinking?” “That’s right! Making the customer satisfied is your biggest goal. You said it yourself.” Orina also chimed in. Every time she drank to this extent, it was…

Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, there were only five days left until the Harvest Festival. It had been a week since Sophia left Rock City. The tavern was much livelier. However, for Alan, his friends were not around so after all the preparations, all that was left for him was emptiness. Recently, with Yupanki helping in the tavern, Alan felt much more relaxed. However, that night the sky was gray, mister Wayne and the others just arrived at the tavern when a shocking elf customer entered…

While Alan was still puzzled, the man at the door strode towards the bar counter. “Hello, you are the owner of this tavern.” ‘The tone of his statement is not a question, so this man already confirmed my identity,’ Alan speculated in his heart. Alan could not figure out this person’s purpose, but he was in his tavern and his territory, so he did not have any fear. After all, the governor and the administrative officer were still sitting on the side. From the beginning, the two of them…

“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…

At Alan’s tavern, he used whiskey to conquer the old drunkards in the city. This group was full of admiration for Alan who created whiskey. Therefore, with their help, the number of people who came to the tavern gradually increased. As long as they came to drink, they would eventually become regular customers. However, there was still a considerable way before he could complete the fourth mission. Alan could only hope that during the Harvest Festival, he would be able to amaze the world with his…

When Orina heard the end of the story, she realized that things did not seem to be as she initially thought. Alan, this stubborn young man, did not agree to her monetary aid. Instead, he was using his own methods to earn money. After all, when the elf tribe was trading with Alan, there was no limit to any level of Lafite. As long as they could afford it, Alan would continuously supply it for a reasonable price. After hearing what Olivia said, she knew that Alan did not tell the princess the truth…

Hearing these words, Orina said confidently. “It’s very simple. In the conditions you mentioned just now, add two more. Every year, you will provide the elf warriors with a set of iron equipment, as well as other iron tools and magic tools. Finally, you will agree to let the entire elf race move to your city when we invade the Abyss.” Hearing these two additional conditions, Olivia was in disbelief. How could the elves dare to make such a big demand? Orina ignored the shocked princess and…
