Chapter 45: The Profiteers

"One hundred taels, are you crazy about money?" Fan Chen's eyes widened and he glared at the boss. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The boss grinned at the three of them flatteringly and said, "Hehe... Look at the three of you are upright, you must be from a rich and noble family, and you shouldn't count this one hundred taels!"

"Even if the three of us go to other stores to invest in the stack, we only need one tael of silver, and if you give you ten taels, it will be a lot, and you actually want a hundred taels?" Feng Yue stood far away, and shouted to the treacherous boss with a displeased face.

"This one hundred taels is a lot of money, but you go and see if there are any other shops willing to greet you!" The treacherous boss turned sideways, trying to squeeze out of the crack in the door, but because his stomach was too big, he got stuck in the crack of the door, he narrowed his eyes and smiled at the three of them, and pointed to the street with the squeezed out.

The three of them glanced at the silent street, and there was no one but this inn.

The senior brother couldn't help it, so he had to stay, so he said yes.

"Okay then, but the price won't go up, right?"

"Senior brother, this!" Feng Yueli hurriedly spoke, Chang Yi waved his hand at him, and Feng Yueli and Fan Chen had no choice but to give up.

"Okay, please come inside!" The boss shrank into the store with a smile and greeted the three of Fanchen with a smile. Then his face changed suddenly, his eyes showed a fierce light, and he glanced at the children in the store and scolded.

"Fuck, are you going to get stuck here? Fuck, why don't you take the door down and let the guests stand outside the door?"

The child standing behind him panicked and hurriedly stepped forward to remove the door panel.

In a few moments, the door panel was all removed by the children, and the boss kicked him angrily.

"Fuck, why are you still standing here, why don't you hurry up and make tea!" was still scolding the child, and his face was very ugly.

The child nodded in fear, and was about to make tea, when the boss shouted to him again, "Close the door for me first." ”

The three of them slowly walked into the hall, the boss's tone was too big, and the three of them avoided the boss a little, for fear that his strange smell would be smoked.

Fan Chen thought that this hundred taels was really wronged, and immediately leaned over and whispered to Chang Yi: "Senior brother, it's so expensive, it's still to live, we might as well sleep outside, and don't give money to this black-hearted boss!"

"The other shops are not open, this town must be weird, we can also check the boss when we move in!" Chang Yi replied in a low voice.

When Fan Chen heard this, he felt that his senior brother's analysis was very reasonable, and he was worthy of the master's trust in him so much.

Feng Yueli on the side saw that the boss had been abusing the child, so she helped the boss say a few words.

"He's a kid, what are you doing with him!"

"Guest officer, you don't know that this little rabbit cub doesn't fight, scold and disobey, hehe... You please, please inside. The boss waved at them as he spoke.

Inside the inn, there was only one candle lit on the counter, and it was so dim that it was impossible to see anything clearly, and when the child closed the door panel, it was even darker.

I can vaguely see that the furnishings in the hall are very neat, it looks like it has just been renovated, and the tables, chairs and stools are all new.

"Boss, this is too dark, light a few more candles!" Feng Yueli complained to the boss.

"Okay, okay!" he replied to Feng Yueli with a grovel bow, and Feng Yueli immediately covered his nose and said to him with a very painful expression.

"Boss, please go rinse your mouth, it stinks, or bring a face cloth!"

"I don't know objectively, I've had bad breath since I was a child, I can't change it, as the saying goes, you can eat and drink when you open your mouth, hehe... If the objectivity can't stand it, I'll go and bring a veil. The boss smiled at Feng Yueli and walked towards the counter, took a few red candles, and brought a piece of cloth.

He lit a candle and placed it on the candlestick, then trotted over and placed it on the guest table in front of Feng Yueli.

"How is this one enough?" Fan Chen complained as he looked at his boss.

"The guests don't know that the candles are running out, so we have to save some money!" replied the boss.

"The candles are gone, go buy them!" Chang Yi said to the boss in a calm tone.

"Ouch, guest officer, don't you know, all the candles in this town are gone, and the door-to-door is now all lit by this candle, if it weren't for the fact that I took out all my savings to renovate this inn a few days ago, and I didn't have the money to move, or I would have left early! This Luojia Town can't stay!" The boss was full of grievances, and he didn't forget to touch the round belly with his hand as he spoke.

When the three of them heard him say this, they thought that this town was very strange, and when they looked at each other, they knew that they were like him to ask.

"How can you close the door tightly this day, or this candle will be wasted!" Feng Yueli said, and sat down on the stool. Fan Chen and Chang Yi also sat down.

"Oh, you don't know, this can't be opened!" he looked flustered, his tone became low, and his eyes revealed a look of horror.

Chang Yi then asked, "Oh, why can't you open the door?"

He rolled his eyes, looked panicked, and stood in place and looked around. The three of them stared at him tightly, seeing him like this, they became even more curious, and couldn't wait for him to say the reason.

The boss slowly bent down and leaned over his face, although the ugly face was covered with a veil, covering the lower half, it was illuminated by the candlelight, and the eyes were like jackals in the night, which was very terrifying.

He gestured not to speak, and said softly, "Can't speak!"

This can make the three of them more and more curious, in this prosperous town, there is no one on the streets, and the door to door is closed, revealing this weirdness everywhere.

"Why can't you say it!" Fan Chen looked at him curiously and asked.

"It's terrible, I can't say it. The boss retracted, put his right hand on his neck, gestured like a knife, and if he said that, he would cut his neck and die.

"It's okay, you say, the three of us are not afraid!" Feng Yueli said.

The boss shook his head vigorously, and the pig's ears moved with him.

"No, no, no, you're not afraid, I'm afraid!" he said, tilting his pig's head, rolling his eyes.

"If you want to eat anything, just tell the bitch, but there is no fresh meat, no vegetables, no rice, noodles, bacon, duck, salted fish, these are all there. I still have something to do, so I won't bother you! If I have something to do, just call the bitch! Where's that silver? hehe......"

He smiled at Chang Yi with a smooth head, his eyes moving.

Chang Yi in front of him was graceful and unhurried, in stark contrast to the capricious profiteer boss, one was gentle and elegant, and the other was hateful.

Chang Yi took out a bag of silver from his waist, untied the rope bag, and took out a piece of gold, the boss's eyes suddenly lit up, and he snatched the gold ingots from Chang Yi's hands, and immediately opened the dough cloth first, put the gold ingots into his mouth, and bit it with his big yellow teeth, and his face instantly blossomed.
