Start in Another World With All Cooking Skills

The word "resident singer" comes from Donne's mouth as soon as it is heard.

When many bosses planned the construction of the bar at the beginning, they made it clear that the environment here should be relatively dark and quiet, and it must be accompanied by soothing music, so as to achieve the effect of relaxing the guests.

But then again, probably wine and music are a good match no matter which world they are in. Other common taverns in the Land of Wonders, open day and night, often have a resident bard as well.

In order to further distinguish the functions of bars from ordinary taverns, the management level of the restaurant has worked hard on hardware equipment.

In the corner of Ling's bar, you can see a small performance stage with a high-quality harpsichord on it. This large instrument is very expensive, and you can't see it in ordinary bars.

The style came up immediately.

After that, before the bar officially opened for business, the management of the restaurant found a suitable bard to settle in.

However, a few days ago, the former bard who was staying at the bar left Eaton Town due to personal reasons.

As the person in charge of the store, Ling had to contact Hana, the HR director, to submit a request for re-employment.

Just recently, many street artists have come to the town.

After figuring out that this man named Joseph was here to apply for the job, Ling took out the proprietress pie that she had just trained recently, and pouted her chin towards the corner stage:

"Here, there's a harpsichord over there, or you use the one you brought with you...what's that called?"

"Shiqin, Miss."

"Oh, cough, or you can use the harp you brought with you to play a repertoire you are good at. As long as I am satisfied with what you hear, you can stay. Don't doubt it, I still have this right, here I am It's up to you."

After the communication, Joseph went to the stage to play with his harp.

After thinking for a while, he began to pluck the seven-stringed instrument in his hand, while tapping the tail of the piano with his left hand from time to time.

The strings are plucked, and the sound is transmitted through the old cowhide into the hollow body of the piano, and then comes out after a little amplification.

Such back and forth changes in sound transmission give the plucked qin a sense of dullness and desolation, which is very suitable for playing poignant love stories or tragic heroic epics.

That's why bards love this musical instrument so much.

The first song Joseph applied for was not sung, but simply played. The early piano sound was dull and depressing.

At this time, there were already many guests sitting in the bar in twos and threes who came to drink and relax. After seeing Joseph performing on stage, they all paid more or less attention to it.

"This piece sounds so depressing."

"Is it done on purpose? The melody looks pretty good to me. I guess it's a narrative piece?"

"This doesn't seem like a popular song, it's the first time I've heard it."

"It's interesting, maybe it was created by someone else?"

Those who can come to Ling's bar to spend in the bar have a good economic foundation.

And among these people with a few pennies, there are some people who have good music literacy and music identification ability.

The tune of Joseph's lute has begun to change, and the tune has gradually become more exciting.

Since the poem he is playing is a narrative piece.

According to the popular understanding, the depression at the beginning is because the protagonist of the story he narrates is suffering and oppressed. After the tone is changed, it means that the protagonist's mood has begun to change and he is about to rise up and resist.

"Oh, it's depressing first, then excited, and finally there's a rising climax, a standard heroic epic song."

"It sounds like this. The tune is not bad, but because the format is too standardized, I don't have much expectations for the content behind it. It can be regarded as a song between the second and third rates. If this is the man himself If he has created a favorite song, then I will not recognize him very much."

"Come on. You're right. I remember that your skill in playing the piano seems to be worse than mine, right? If you have the ability, you can play one later."

"I don't go up, I just like to sit down and talk, please call me a critic."

Amid the whispers of the drinkers stopping their glasses, Joseph's performance slowly reached a climax.

And the real change begins at this moment.

The sound of plucking and slapping, which were originally slightly thin, combined to show a magnificent battle scene!

It starts with a majestic and courageous overall chord, which is urgent and magnificent, as if to show the abundant will and unstoppable momentum of the protagonist of the story.

After a short introduction with a severe and powerful impact, the sky-high flames ignited!

With its unstoppable force, the flames of the struggle strongly hit the heartstrings of everyone in the bar.

Although the emotions in the middle have eased, the burning of the heroic will has not been extinguished. The rustling of panic, sad appeals, lofty thoughts, and shouts of victory are still the main theme of the music.

"Ah this..."

"I really like what you said just now—it's a song between second-rate and third-rate. Tsk tsk, I didn't expect to hear such a surprise at the end. The climax at the end really made the whole song a bit dull. Revitalized, like being reborn from the ashes."

"I declare that this is a first-class piece!"

After the song was over, the drinkers in the surrounding area began to applaud Joseph spontaneously.

For a performer, such applause is the best affirmation for him!

"Hey, musician, you play very well. This piece is also very good. What's it called?" someone asked.

"I call it "Hymn of Heroes in the Firelight." Joseph stood up, took off his hat and saluted tonight's audience.

Today's heroic epic music creation, because of the vastly different formats, serious homogenization, and audience fatigue, it is difficult to produce good works.

And this "Hymn of Heroes in the Firelight", with its unique and magical climax in the last paragraph, it is not an exaggeration to call it a masterpiece.

Good music works can naturally lead people to associate with each other, while better ones can directly make people feel synesthesia.

Listening to the music, the picture automatically popped up in my mind.

When listening to the last paragraph of this song, everyone in the bar "seeed" such a painting in their minds——

The hero burns away the darkness and evil of the world with a fire.

In the end, he turned his back to the soaring flames and left, drifting away, chic and lonely.

God!

Ling behind the bar was also in high spirits because of this song "Hymn to Heroes in the Firelight".

Feeling on fire!

Compared with other people's imagination when they heard the orgasm, after listening to this song, she had a more concrete picture in her head.

It was a handsome young man with black hair and black eyes, with one hand on the brim of his wide hat, and he walked away indifferently among a group of astonished onlookers.

Behind the tall and straight figure of the young man was the flames soaring into the sky, so he turned his back to the light and walked into the darkness.

The little proprietress leaned on the bar and began to think:

"It seems that when I heard the last word, I unconsciously thought of my little brother. When he was in Tiansang Town, he burned down Iron Hand Jack's house in a big fire. At that time alone, little brother he Really handsome."

"Wait a minute, this man named Joseph said that he once saw me being chased by Iron Hand Jack's men in Tiansang Town... So, this song shouldn't be something he heard after seeing the skyrocketing fire that night. Created out of emotion, right?"

"Although I don't understand it very well, if you think about it this way, it feels like art is really amazing?"

...

"Monsieur Joseph, eh?"

After Joseph came down from the stage, Bell casually mixed a cocktail made of rum and lime juice and pushed it out.

"The song I played just now is very good, I like it very much. But to tell you the truth, I don't really understand music very well. Then my brother told me before that the music in the bar should be softer and more soothing. The song just now Isn't it a little too exciting?"

"I will also do softer tunes."

The performance just now was too devoted, and Joseph happened to be a little dry, so he took a sip of this strange-looking glass of wine without thinking too much.

The taste of this wine was very unique, different from anything he had tasted before.

The ale and distilled spirits sold in ordinary taverns are either too weak and tasteless, or too strong and only suitable for drunkenness and dreaming.

And in this glass of very good-looking wine, the non-irritating wine taste has a faint aroma of mint and lime, and it is ice cold and very attractive.

"This wine?" By the time Joseph put down the glass, the small glass of cocktail had been drunk unconsciously.

"This cup is [Mo Jito]. According to my brother, the alcohol content is not heavy, suitable for relaxation." Bell shrugged, "Also, if you work here, you can order an extra cup after work every day Big cocktail. It doesn’t cost money, it’s, uh… oh yeah, it’s an employee benefit.”

Joseph didn't understand a few words spoken by this cute little proprietress, just as difficult to understand as the previous [resident singer].

Ever since I came to Eaton, I feel that in this booming town, everyone seems to speak some strange and invented words that I don't know why, and they just open their mouths.

I don't know where the source of this strange atmosphere is...

It made him want to imitate a little bit.

Because the little proprietress asked by name to listen to soothing music, after a short break, Joseph re-entered the stage.

The drinkers who had heard him play "The Hymn of Heroes in the Firelight" applauded enthusiastically.

This time, Joseph did not choose to play the lyre.

Instead, he sat by the harpsichord.

Having spent most of his life in the city of Golden Oak, the capital of music, Joseph actually has a good grasp of music theory and musical instruments.

The second piece he chose to play tonight was "To Vivienne", which was widely circulated in the Dona Empire, and even the children of the little noble families would hum.

This song is very gentle, and it feels suitable for the atmosphere of the bar.

Let go of a love sketch, and I can't find any flaws. Joseph's basic skills are very solid.

As a layman, the bell itself is lively, and I think it sounds good. In addition, I quietly glanced at a few of the regular customers who knew music, and saw that their response was also good.

"The salary for working here is 8 silver nars a month, and you only work after 6 o'clock in the evening. Then, if the guests give you a tip, it's all yours."

"Come and meet Hana with me later. Our employees have to go through a process with her when they get hired. After that, your salary will be checked by her apprentice every month and handed over to you."

Ling finally explained this to her new employees.

Then, tonight's recruitment will be over naturally.

The bar has gained a resident singer who has good professionalism and can't fault him in every aspect.

Joseph, on the other hand, got a good job that paid him enough to live a decent life.

Afterwards, Ling, the little lady proprietress of the bar, used the life skills she had just mastered recently, "routines, listening, and acting as a tree hole" to set some of his life stories from Joseph.

It is the final assessment of the character of the employees.

The other party's story is very simple, and can be summed up in a few words——

Joseph was originally a street performer in Sweet Mulberry, a big town around Golden Oak.

Probably, I went to Golden Oak City, the capital of art, to pursue my dream in my youth, and I still failed to achieve anything until middle age, and I was muddled.

Later, by chance, there was an adventure, and I was inspired to compose the song "Hymn of Heroes in the Firelight".

With this excellent piece, he returned to Golden Oak with a slightly better life.

However, the art capital is, after all, a sacred place for industry introversion where just throwing a brick at will can hit two artistic geniuses.

After gaining a little bit of fame by relying on a piece of music, Joseph only upgraded from performing on the street to performing in a small theater.

Later, recently, I heard my peers start to frantically discuss a small town called Eaton in the middle of the empire.

Everyone in this town is talented, and they speak nicely.

Moreover, this famous town has the best food in the entire empire, which has been professionally certified by the gentlemen in the Music Association!

Relying on the gourmet food industry, the town named Eaton is making great strides, developing rapidly, and thriving. It is the most potential area in the entire empire.

Development and potential means opportunity.

In addition, the small town of Eaton has a different kind of attraction for people who play music.

This year's most popular harpsichord piece "To Vivienne", it is said that the protagonist at the source of the story lives here.

In short, driven by various factors, many art and cultural workers around Golden Oak began to flow to Eaton, thinking of trying their luck and changing the status quo of life.

Perhaps it was because of the song "Heroes in the Firelight" that rekindled his love and yearning for life, and Joseph also became one of the members who wanted to change the status quo.

And after witnessing the current situation of Eaton's development these days, and gritted his teeth and spent money to eat a delicious hot pot for one person, his heart became even more determined:

"I made up my mind to come here, perhaps it was the most correct choice in my life."

Heroes can't just run away.

Being a resident singer in a bar is the first step of his new life!

Sorry, I didn't update yesterday because I was arrested and sent to duty.

Because of duty, I have to go to work from last Friday to this Friday, and I feel like I am in jail.

Who the hell came up with the idea of ​​a day off! I hate.

Then, the next is the normal daily update.
