Reading one's own book must be a very shameful experience.
That's it?
Meg had only skimmed through that book of dragon-slaying warriors fighting huge evil dragons, and it was already relegated to the corner of history.
Be it the story or the style, they were all inferior. It was hard to imagine that a book of this standard could be hidden away and sold by the shop owner like a treasure.
Of course, this could also be determined by the rarity of the subject matter.
After lunch, everyone went back to the restaurant. The two little fellows were reading the new sketchbook that they had just bought with relish. Irina had something to do, so Mag was left alone to read the few ancient books that he had gotten today out of boredom.
With the book in his hand, Meg's mind was not on it. Instead, he was thinking about Josh's next move.
It had been a few days since the battle between the Roth Empire, the orcs, and the elves. The originally tense situation had become even more complicated because of Josh's incident.
The orcs, who had dozens of their tribes wiped out, were obviously not going to let the matter rest just because Josh was controlled by the devil. The elves, who had almost lost their city of life, were also going to demand an explanation.
Andre did not give any direct response to this. The number of soldiers sent to the border was even increasing, and the situation was still tense.
Now that Josh was wanted by the entire continent, it could be said that he was the enemy of the entire world. With so many eyes on him, it would be difficult for him to do anything big.
However, it was still troublesome that they could not find any trace of him.
"Father, look. This is Big Sister Anne's painting." Amy's voice interrupted Meg's thoughts. He looked down at the painting in front of him, and his eyes lit up.
It was a drawing of a silver-haired fairy. It was drawn with a watercolor pen, and it was Ai Mi.
The painting style was young, but it was precisely because of this that it looked cute and childlike. Moreover, every stroke was very smooth, and there was no stiffness at all. It made the character look lively and cute.
"Wow, this is great." Meg looked at Anne with surprise. "Is this Anne's first time drawing?"
Anne smiled and nodded.
"Yes, I only know how to draw circles that aren't too round, but Big Sister Anne already knows how to draw me," Amy said proudly, as if she had contributed to this.
"What an extraordinary talent in painting." Meg rubbed his chin. Looking at Anne, his eyes lit up. "Anne, are you interested in becoming a cartoonist?"
Anne tilted her head and looked at Meg. She didn't seem to understand what Meg said.
Meg explained, "Manga artists are professional artists who draw comic books. These comic books were created by manga artists."
Anne's eyes lit up. She nodded and said with sign language, "I'm willing."
Meg smiled and said, "That's good. You can continue to draw according to your preferences. If you're really interested, I'll give you a script later. You can draw a story according to the script."
Anne nodded obediently. She sat down and flipped through the comic book. Then, she picked up the watercolor pen beside her and continued to draw.
"In this case, the Little Master of China project … can I start it?" Meg rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
"Father, remember to attract customers today," Amy whispered when she saw Meg in a daze.
"If Amy didn't mention it, I would've forgotten." Meg smiled and rubbed the little girl's head. He got up and walked to the wine cabinet.
From the bottom of the wine cabinet, he took out a small bottle of Maotai wine that Irina drank the day before yesterday. He opened the bottle cap and poured a small cup into a small jar that looked like a small incense burner.
The small semi-sealed jar had a few fine holes on it. It was just enough to let the fragrance of the wine out, but it wouldn't disappear all of a sudden.
Fishing for drunkards was the same principle as fishing. First, build a nest and use the fragrance of the wine to attract drunkards to gather. Once people gathered, there would be no lack of customers.
This method was somewhat different from opening a restaurant.
After all, as long as the restaurant wasn't a roadside stall, it wouldn't be easy to attract customers from far and near with the fragrance.
Mag went out with the specially made wine goblet and a small iron cage in his hand. He placed the goblet in the cage and put a small lock on it before hanging it on the pillar at the door.
The rich fragrance of the Maotai wine slowly drifted out. Although it spread very slowly and the fragrance was diluted a lot, it still continued to spread out with the stable and unique fragrance.
The faint fragrance of the wine was centered around the Saipan Tavern and slowly spread to the surroundings.
"It smells so good! Is this the fragrance of wine?! "
"Yeah, it smells like wine, but there's no wine with such a rich fragrance."
When the customers passed by, they couldn't help but take a few more glances. They were surprised at where the fragrance of the wine came from.
Some of the wine lovers followed the fragrance of the wine and found the small iron cage hanging in front of the Saipan Tavern.
"What is this operation? Why did they lock up the wine? "
"This is a new tavern right? I've never heard of it before. Could it be that they want to use the fragrance of the wine to attract customers? "
"People are attracted, but the tavern isn't open yet. It only opens at 6 pm."
Many passersby followed the fragrance of the wine and gathered at the entrance of the tavern. They looked at the small wine cup in the iron cage and swallowed their saliva. But when they saw the wooden sign hanging on the door that said the opening hours, they felt helpless.
"Lady boss, look, there are many customers gathered at the entrance of the tavern across the street." In the Titan Tavern, the waiter looked at Ai Fei who just came down from her afternoon nap and said.
"Their family finally opened for business?" Ai Fei stretched her back and smiled lazily. Her lithe figure was accentuated by her loose cotton clothes.
According to her observations over the past few days, this Saipan Tavern was like a child's play. The opening hours were extremely short, and there were very few customers. It was clear that they were only doing business because of their interest.
"No, it seems that the owner put a jug of wine at the entrance, and it attracted the customers." The waiter shook his head.
"A jug of wine?" Ai Fei was a little surprised. She quickly walked to the entrance of the tavern and looked at the dozen or so people gathered in front of the Saipan Tavern diagonally across the street. They were indeed surrounding a small iron cage hanging on a pillar at the entrance of the tavern.
Her nose twitched, and her brows furrowed slightly. Even though they were quite far away, there was still a faint fragrance of wine in the air.
As a woman who had inherited the family business and managed the Titan Tavern for more than 10 years, even though she couldn't personally brew any fine wine, she was still quite knowledgeable about wine. She had never heard of a wine that could emit such a fragrant aroma from such a distance.
Ai Fei murmured, "With such fine wine in hand, this Saipan Tavern will definitely have a place in the tavern world of Romo Street, let alone Romo Street."
"Boss, what did you say?" The waiter didn't hear her clearly.
"Nothing, just be more respectful when you see the owner of the tavern across the street in the future." Ai Fei withdrew her gaze and gave the waiter some instructions before turning to enter the tavern.
"Even if I can't get him, I have to get his wine …"
