Chapter 62 Beating Workers

Ada didn't return to the Leaky Cauldron until the afternoon. The place was crowded with people chatting and drinking. People from all over the world would come here to sit here whenever they arrived in London.

Several old witches gathered in the corner and muttered something together. The mead in the cup was not touched at all. The wizards holding firewhiskey were drinking, and they didn't know what they were so happy about.

The little wizard who was dressed strangely and the slovenly bearded wizard were intensely discussing the content of "Today's Transfiguration". If someone hadn't stopped them, they would have started fighting.

Various wizards came and went in the bar, making this small bar very lively.

The waiters in the bar were busy greeting the guests, carrying trays among the crowd, and some anxiously waiting guests complained loudly from time to time.

Tom, the bar owner, could no longer stand at the bar wiping the wine glasses. He was also busy, grinning like a walnut with a toothless mouth, and smiled ingratiatingly at the guests in the shop. .

The noisy and chattering bar did not bore Ada. Instead, these noisy wizards made Ada very interesting, so she did not go directly back to the room upstairs.

Although she had been to the Leaky Cauldron in August last year, she just passed by without stopping, so naturally she did not see such a scene full of fireworks.

After solving the work problem, Ada naturally had time to look at the guests in the bar. Some people were dressed in luxurious clothes, and some were in ordinary clothes; some were in high spirits, and some were in a hurry. These people may look like this now. Ada's future.

Ada stood leaning against the bar, holding a small cup of tea in her hand. Although Tom allowed her to stay here, he did not provide Ada with alcohol. Ada could only drink tea and plain water.

From time to time, several customers would open the door and walk in. Some would go to Diagon Alley for shopping, while others would just come to the bar for a drink, or to get together with old friends and chat.

These people would all take a look at Ada after they came in. A good-looking person would naturally make people want to take a second look, and Ada leaning against the bar was really conspicuous.

She has dazzling long golden hair and wears a dark wizard robe. If she hadn't been young, someone would have probably approached her to chat with her. I just don’t know if the wizard’s pick-up lines are cliche or if they are full of new ideas.

If Ada can be put into a better-looking robe and stop in front of Madam Malkin's Robe Shop or Tuofan Clothing Shop, it will definitely be a living sign and can play the role of a sales lady, but neither of these two bosses have this kind of idea.

Tom, who had been busy for a long time, finally returned to the bar that he had longed for. His hand wiping the wine glass was shaking a little. There was a lot of work today, and the skinny old man was really tired.

"It's a mess here, why don't you go back to your room?" Tom asked.

In Tom's opinion, Ada, who was leaning against the bar, was a bit of a hindrance. She didn't drink, and there was no money to be made from her. The Leaky Cauldron didn't need an immature waitress like Ada. She was better than Mrs. Rosmerta, who still retains her charm, is far behind.

"I would like to try sherry. Some people compare it to 'Spanish sunshine in a bottle.' Can you sell me a cup?" Ada shook the tea cup in her hand, as if it contained not tea but It's like sherry.

Old Tom shook his head. He could not provide these alcoholic drinks to the underage Ada.

"Gamp's old social wine will also work. I heard that you can get a reward of 100 gold galleons after drinking a pint." Ada continued.

After the implementation of the International Confederation of Wizards Secrecy, the then Minister of Magic Gamp allowed the Leaky Cauldron to continue operating, so the bar owner at the time created this brand of beer, but it was said to be very, very, very unpleasant to drink.

How could such a shockingly unpleasant wine be passed down? Of course, Old Tom couldn't come up with it. He pulled a bottle of Butterbeer from under the bar and said, "This one's mine."

Ada took a sip of butterbeer, not to mention it was quite delicious. The beer tasted sweet and had a low alcohol content. Ada felt it was more like a drink than wine.

This drink is very popular with underage wizards, because they can only drink this low-alcohol alcoholic beverage, and Firewhiskey cannot be drunk until they reach adulthood.

Looking at the endless stream of customers in the bar, Ada naturally understood what Old Tom meant, but Ada didn't want to go upstairs. She felt that staying downstairs was more interesting than going upstairs to read.

"For the sake of buying me a butterbeer, let me help you!" Ada, whose character was ruined because she loved to read books, walked into the bar under Tom's surprised gaze, "There's no need to calculate wages!"

Ada stood at the bar. Although she was a little busy at first, the crooked system went online again and gave Ada a [Bartender] progress bar. Moreover, this progress bar can be upgraded. The name of the next level is [ Bar owner].

"Five meads!" said the waiter.

"Five glasses of mead are ready." After Ada packed the wine, she put it on the tray and handed it to the waiter.

The waiter did not hear Tom's voice but an unfamiliar female voice, so he stared blankly at Ada holding the wine, and did not even notice Ada reaching out to ask for money.

Ada lightly tapped her knuckles on the bar table with her backhand. Only then did the waiter react and gave the coin in his hand to Ada. He asked, "Who are you? Why are you here? Where is Tom?"

The three rather philosophical questions did not receive an answer from Ada. After putting the coins into the money box, Ada continued to work. Just now, a wizard who looked a little downcast ordered a glass of brandy.

The waiters quickly became familiar with the "new" bartender Ada. It was better to deal with Ada than with Old Tom, not to mention that Ada could complete the work neatly.

If the guests order at the bar, Ada will hand them the drinks directly, and the guests will only think that Ada is a relative of Old Tom. But they were a little curious as to how Tom, who was not good-looking at all, could have such good-looking relatives.

If the order is placed through the waiter, the waiter will loudly notify Ada to prepare drinks or food, or use magic to make the order fly directly to Ada's hand.

Old Tom wandered among the guests, for fear of neglecting the guests. He would also glance at Ada at the bar from time to time. Ada handled everything skillfully, making Tom wonder if Ada had done this before going to Hogwarts. One line.

In just one afternoon, not only the waiters were familiar with Ada, but also the guests in the bar were familiar with her. Ada gets along very well with the guests. She just doesn't like to interact with people, not that she doesn't know how to get along with them.

Standing at the bar as a bartender may seem like a waste of Ada's time, but in fact Ada has gained a lot.

The guests in the Leaky Cauldron were mixed, and there were many things of interest to Ada among their chats. Vampires, ghouls, and various dark creatures have allowed Ada to expand her knowledge and hear many rumors that cannot be seen in books.

These rumors may sound bizarre, but they make Ada yearn for them. After she graduates, she also wants to travel throughout the magical world and explore various countries.

With Ada's help, the waiters were finally no longer in such a hurry, and they could take better care of the bar's business. Although it is an exaggeration to say this, Ada with a bright smile lit up the dark bar like a little sun.
