Chu Tianjiao was so smart. She had already guessed from the driver's words that Beicheng was probably the slum area of Luo City, a place where good and bad people mixed together. After thinking for a moment, she raised her voice and said, "Then please send us to Beicheng!"
The coachman had no choice but to get back on the carriage and drive the carriage through the bustling streets all the way to Beicheng. Sure enough, the tall buildings gradually disappeared outside the carriage, the streets became dirty and messy, and more pedestrians were walking around.
Soon, the carriage stopped in front of a second-story store facing the street. Chu Tianjiao opened the curtain and looked around. He saw the four characters "Yelai Inn" written on a half-worn black wooden plaque. He thought it must have been there for a long time.
The gold paint on the words is already mottled.
Putting down the benches and helping several people out of the car, the coachman's face was full of apologies, "This Yuelai Inn is the best inn in Beicheng, but I don't know if there are any rooms!"
As he said that, the coachman took the initiative to walk to the door and picked up the half-worn dark red felt, "Boss, hurry up, we have a customer coming!"
"Come on!" With a lazy tone, a fat old man in a cloth robe slowly stood up from behind the counter. He was obviously lying on the table and dozing off, with a hint of glistening saliva on the corner of his mouth.
, raised his face to look at Chu Tianjiao and the others who had already walked into the hall. His eyes stayed on the faces of Dan and Chu Tianjiao for a moment, and a pair of small eyes immediately overflowed with light, "Guys, stay at the hotel.
?!"
That look was like a wolf discovering a fat sheep.
"Four upper rooms!" Lan Nuo took out half a piece of broken silver from his body, "Be sure to clean them, and the bedding must be new, preferably facing the sun!"
The old man glanced sideways at the broken silver in Lan Nuo's hand, "There isn't one in the upper room. There seems to be two rooms in Xiangyang. A new set of bedding is five taels. The room is usually cleaned once every two days. Since you specifically requested it, I will help.
You clean it twice more, but it’s just the rent
It will be doubled, five people, twenty-five taels of quilts, plus the rent, a total of fifty taels. Your half a silver coin is considered a deposit, and the store does not accept credit. If you want to stay, you will give it all immediately.
If you pay all the money, I can get the key to open the door!"
Except for Chu Tianjiao and He Lanji, everyone looked angry.
"Old Yu, you are just trying to raise your price!" Before Lan Nuo could say anything, the coachman shouted unwillingly, "Even the best Tianzi room in Fulong Inn only costs five taels of silver a day, and a shabby house like yours only costs five taels of silver a day.
..." "I said Uncle Liu, are you really
I don’t know or I don’t know. Since the beginning of the Xuanwu Conference, which inn has not doubled in price? Why is my inn so dilapidated? Is there any inn in Beicheng that can compare to mine? There is no negotiation for this price!" The fat old man blew his beard.
, with a look of love that he couldn’t hold back.
The old man looked helpless and turned to look at Chu Tianjiao, "How about I take you guys to visit another house?"
"No need to bother!" Chu Tianjiao's smile remained unchanged, "Butler, pay the money!"
Naturally, Lan Nuo didn't feel sorry for the money. He just felt a little unwilling to be taken advantage of. Seeing that Chu Tianjiao had decided to stay, he immediately took out the money and threw it into the fat boss's arms.
Grabbing the silver, he put the gold ingot into his mouth like a greedy slave and took a bite to make sure it was not fake. The fat boss Lao Yu suddenly smiled like a peach blossom, "Little Yu'er, come out quickly and give the guests a few hugs."
New bedding for the bed!”
Lan Nuo paid the fare and the driver thanked him and turned to leave.
