At first, Abner was not used to it, but when he saw that Kyle and the others did not look uncomfortable, he relaxed.

Besides, Lorne seemed like a friendly person. When it came to dealing with people, he was quite sincere.

Therefore, Abner immediately brought out the skills that he had trained after so many years of ups and downs in the palace.

In just a few sentences, he had become familiar with Lorne.

After greeting the five people into the shop, Lorne did not immediately let them sit down. Instead, he dragged out a long table from the storage room at the back.

“This is the first time so many people have come in today. I’ll bring you guys to eat something different so that you can try as many things here!”

This table had been re-processed by Lorne. It was divided into two layers. The top table had a large round hole dug by Lorne.

Then, under the puzzled gazes of Kyle and the others, Lorne carried a brazier with carbon and placed a large pot on it.

Then, all kinds of meat and vegetables were placed on the table.

“Brothers, come over here. Let’s eat around here!”

Kyle and the others looked at Lorne’s novel method of eating and shrugged. Their faces were filled with question marks.

This method was not unheard of, but under normal circumstances, usually, a large cauldron would be set up and used as a sacrifice.

However, Lorne was proficient in cooking. Even Kyle, who was used to eating the food made by royal chefs in the palace, was full of praise for this method.

It was obvious that they trusted Lorne, so everyone sat around him.

Before long, the water in the cauldron was boiling. At the same time, the homemade hotpot seasoning that Lorne had thrown earlier was evenly spread out.

In an instant, the fragrance filled the air.

Rosen could not help but sniff excitingly.

“Boss, what are we in for today?”

Lorne poured a small portion of the meat and vegetables into the pot as he explained.

“I improved this thing with reference from a cookbook. I added some seasonings that I made myself.

“Let’s call it hotpot. Throw in your favorite dishes and bring them up after they’re cooked. The small bowl in front of you is a seasoning that you can dip in.”

This was originally a hotpot table and seasoning that Lorne had prepared for himself when he had nothing to do. Now, he might as well take it out and serve it to everyone.

While Lorne was still explaining about the meal, Rosen and Kyle had already picked up the cutlery and put the food in very skillfully.

The remaining three people, Andrew Allen, and Abner were obviously a few steps slower in understanding what to do.

When Kyle and Rosen were the first to grab the food they wanted for themselves in their seats, the other three guys suddenly woke up.

Without saying anything, a fight immediately broke out on the table.

The few most high-ranking officials of the Lolan Empire were like ordinary people after taking off their official robes. They were not careless when it came to snatching food.

Although there was only this table of guests in the entire tavern, the atmosphere was very warm. Kyle, the King of Lolan, and his ministers were all shouting at each other. It was quite a debate on who got to take what.

After eating and drinking for a while, Kyle and the others finally calmed down. They patted their bellies and leaned back on the chairs, occasionally taking a bite or two from the pot.

At this time, Kyle suddenly remembered the reason for his arrival. The reason why he had been so worked up that he could not even eat a single bit in the morning. He was here on official business!

Why did he unknowingly immerse himself in enjoying the delicious food?

It was because delicious food corrupts people’s hearts!

However, the meal was too good to not be forgiven!

Kyle patted his belly again, and then he put down the cutlery.

“Boss, have you heard about the major event that happened in Lolan the past few days?”

Lorne came to a realization as to what his friend was asking.

“Major event, what major events?”

He really did not know much about the recent happenings in Lolan City. On the contrary, he had been thinking about how the salt industry should be run in the past few days.

After he and the old man jointly set up this industry, every day, he wondered how much monthly and annual profits would he gain from it. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

In short, he was so immersed in this that he did not care about anything else. Regarding the various events that happened in Lolan City, he simply listened to them without delving too deep into them.

Could it be that during these few days when he was locked in his room, a shocking event had happened in Lolan City?

Did his knowledge of history change again?

When Kyle saw Lorne’s dumbfounded look, he was also a little stunned.

The matter of the Spartan Kingdom’s envoy asking questions in the hall had already been spread throughout all the streets and every nook and cranny of Lolan City. however, Lorne had actually not known anything about it?

Kyle’s heart, which was originally excited to seek an answer, could not help but turn heavy.

If he had not heard of this issue, he might really not be able to come up with any solution.

“The Spartan Kingdom sent envoys to our Lolan Empire, and in front of the King of Lolan and the officials in the palace, they said that they wanted to ask three questions. You didn’t know about this?”

Lorne’s nervous heart suddenly relaxed.

“Wow, that’s it? It’s just a trivial matter, and you still brag about it as if it’s something important. I thought it was something great, but this is all it was? I heard about this, but it’s not a big deal, so I didn’t take it to heart.”

Kyle suddenly became a little excited.

“Boss, this isn’t a big deal? This concerns the reputation of the Lolan Empire. It was a few st*pid questions raised by the barbarians. If no one in the Lolan Empire can answer them, then it would be a huge loss in terms of our reputation!

“The reputation of the Lolan Empire is on the line. Isn’t it a big deal?”

Looking at Kyle’s anxious look, Lorne was a little dumbfounded.

He immediately scratched his head and said with a blank look in his eyes, “I know that the reputation of the Lolan Empire is very important, but what does this have to do with the questions from the Spartan Kingdom?

“It’s just some silly questions, I’m sure the King of the Lolan Empire and all the civil and military officials have long known about the answer. I reckon that two nights ago, they had already thought of the answer and written it on a piece of paper.

“And I’m sure the reason for them not sharing the answer immediately is to make the Spartan Kingdom barbarians feel better about themselves. Otherwise, not to mention three or two days, the king would have answered it within that night itself.

“In other words, you ordinary people don’t know anything at all. You always feel like you’re on the verge of burning. You’re all so anxious about it, loosen up, they know what they’re doing.

“Let me tell you, you’re just scaring yourselves. The palace knows what’s going on. How can the king and the officials not know better than any of you here?

“You guys of all people should know how capable they are. In the future, you should learn from me when it comes to things like these. You should keep calm and have faith in your empire.. Don’t just panic as if the sky was going to fall.
