The person behind the counter was an old man over half a hundred years old, with a lot of wrinkles on his forehead and the corners of his eyes, and he became more and more furrowed after getting angry, but his hair was unusually black and thick. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In addition, the most striking thing is the big black mole with long hair on his chin, which is still trembling when he speaks, so disgusting that people can't bear to look at it directly.

"Hey!"

The shopkeeper answered, hurriedly ran out of the back hall, and bowed respectfully to the man behind the counter.

"Shopkeeper!"

"What's going on? Do you not know how to greet any guests? The old man was the innkeeper, he walked out of the counter, poked the shopkeeper's head with his hand, and said angrily.

"Ahh I, I don't know, just now, not just now, not ......"

Shopkeeper glanced at the suddenly overcrowded lobby and wanted to explain something, but his body trembled, and his speech became stammering, obviously very afraid of the old man in front of him.

"Nothing? Hurry up and greet these guests, and if you let one of them go, I'll deduct your meal. The shopkeeper crossed his hands on his hips and said viciously.

The shopkeeper was full of sadness, but even in the face of such an unreasonable request, he didn't dare to resist anything, so he had to hurry up to greet the people who appeared inexplicably in the lobby.

"Thank you for coming, it's an honor to despise the store, there is a seat on the second floor, you may wish to move upstairs first." The shopkeeper shouted loudly.

But no matter how many times he shouted, no one in the lobby paid attention to him, and he didn't even look at him, and soon, he realized that something was wrong.

When the shopkeeper squeezed into the crowd, it was the first time to see the faces of the three guest officers he had greeted before, especially after seeing Bai Xue and Zi Ling's world-class appearances, he was shocked, and he was stunned on the spot, opened his mouth wide, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Stone, what should I do?" Bai Xue asked softly, moving to the side of the stone.

Of course, the stone knew what Bai Xue was referring to, and although he couldn't see it, he could also feel the crowd around him, as well as the pig-like wail at the beginning, which was really miserable.

"Little Senior Sister, I can't help it, who told you to be too good-looking!"

"You're poor!"

"I'm telling you the truth, don't you think you look good?"

"Humph! Too lazy to pay attention to you. Bai Xuejiao said angrily, and the slight pouting of her small mouth caused everyone around her to look straight in their eyes.

On the other side, the innkeeper was overjoyed, looking at the room full of guests, and his excited mouth couldn't close.

"Could it be that I did something good in my last life to save the common people? So God gave me so many guests today to repay me? The innkeeper couldn't help but be overjoyed and muttered to himself.

But soon, he shook his head, put this unrealistic idea behind him, and returned to reality, naturally finding something unusual.

I saw that the inn was overcrowded, but everyone's eyes were focused on one place.

"Blackie!"

He shouted, but no one answered.

Finally, the shopkeeper of the Shuiyue Inn couldn't sit still, he finally pushed aside the crowd, looked at it, and his eyes almost popped out.

The innkeeper's gaze first swept over the stone, and then turned to Zi Ling to look at it sharply, and his throat couldn't help but squirm a few times.

And when he finally looked at Bai Xue, his eyes froze, and in addition to swallowing his saliva, there was a touch of greed in his eyes.

Shi's heart jumped, and then Huo Ran turned his head, and the direction was where the innkeeper was.

"Shopkeeper?" The stone called tentatively.

"Exactly, the old man's surname is Shi, and the son might as well call me the shopkeeper Shi." The innkeeper was startled, he didn't know that the stone was blind, and he thought he had been discovered, so he immediately looked away from Bai Xue.

"Shopkeeper Shi's business is really hot!" Shi was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the innkeeper to have the same surname as him, but he didn't think much about it, and then laughed dryly.

"Borrowing the auspicious words of Gongzi, it is said that the day after tomorrow is the annual Qixi Festival, and at this time of year, Lucheng will gather many outsiders, and the inn business will naturally be better."

"Oh, really?"

"Haha!" The old shopkeeper Shi's face was slightly red, and he hurriedly snorted.

"The three of them came from afar, since they came to our store, the honor is also a kind of fate, but I don't know what the three need, the old man will arrange someone to do it."

"The needs have just been talked to this little two, but now the lobby is too lively, and we like to be quiet, so let's arrange to stay first!" Stone said flatly.

"What Childe said is very true, it is better to take the three of them to the guest room by the old man." The stone shopkeeper bent down and made a gesture of please.

Shuiyue Inn sits in the north and faces south, the whole is like a quadrangle, two floors high, except for the south side of the first floor is the lobby, the second floor is some partitioned seats, the east, west and north three buildings are guest rooms, six rooms on each floor, a total of thirty-six rooms.

The three of them walked through the lobby under the leadership of the innkeeper, and there was a courtyard, and the two corridors in the courtyard crossed into a cross to connect the four directions.

The corridor is a bit peculiar, it doesn't actually have a roof, but a tight green leaf, and clusters of dark red grapes hang down, growing big, round, crystal clear, like agate.

"Childe, two young ladies, the grapes in the yard are very sweet, if you like it, you can eat it at will, and the old man promises not to take a penny, so he should have a good relationship with the three." The stone shopkeeper said with a smile.

"Then thank you to the shopkeeper, but don't double the house price and get it back!" Stone said quietly.

"What did Childe say, I, a businessman who opens the door to welcome customers, pay attention to reputation first, how can I do such a thing as killing chickens and taking eggs." The stone shopkeeper said solemnly.

The stone smiled without saying a word, with a hint of disdain on his face.

The group went straight through the corridor or the more appropriate grape trellises, and then climbed up the stairs, and the room of the three stone people was arranged on the second floor of the north building of the inn.

"Childe, it's these three rooms, I don't know how the three of them will be divided?" The stone shopkeeper stood at the entrance of the corridor and stretched out his hand to the left and right.

"Aren't they connected?" Bai Xue asked.

"I'm really sorry, but now the housing is tight, and because of the layout of the inn, there are no three rooms connected together." The stone shopkeeper smiled, his eyes a little evasive.

"So be it!" Stone said lightly.

"Thank you for your understanding." The stone shopkeeper thanked him again and again.

Eventually, Shi lived alone on one side of the corridor, with room numbers "North 204", and Bai Xue and Zi Ling lived on the other side, and the rooms were connected together, with room numbers "North 202" and "North 203".

The shopkeeper Shi watched the three of them enter the room separately, and the smile on his face could no longer be hidden, especially when he looked at the two rooms of "North 202" and "North 203", he smiled silently, but his gums were exposed.

As for why the guest rooms of the Water Joy Inn are named after numbers, it is not the original intention of the stone shopkeeper.

At first, each guest room of the inn also had a majestic name, such as "Xuanyuan", "Aotian", etc., but the shopkeeper Shi really hadn't read for a few years, and he couldn't remember the names that he spent a lot of money for.

Later, they were named after flowers, such as "peony", "rose" and "lily", but the fat powder was too heavy, which led to the already sluggish business becoming even more obvious.

In the end, the stone shopkeeper simply decided to name it after the number, in order to distinguish the direction, he added the south, east, west, and northwest in front of the number, so that it is not only easy to remember, but also easy to find, even if it is the first time to come to the inn, it can easily find a room.

Although the business has not improved much because of this, the shopkeeper Shi is a lazy person, as long as he is hungry, he is too lazy to toss.

However, since I bought a new shop last year, I began to take pleasure in beating and scolding the shop's second child, which is called "training".

……

In the lobby of the Shuiyue Inn, because of Bai Xue and Zi Ling's stay, the popularity of the inn has skyrocketed, and the counter is crowded with people who want to stay at the moment.

"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry." Shi Palm stood at the counter and shouted.

Although he is not good at management, he still knows how to earn the money sent to the door, and when he arranged for the three of them to move in, he already had an immediate way to make money in his heart.

"Hey! I want to stay in the hotel, you can arrange it for me quickly. A tall man in the crowd shouted.

"Yes! Oh, yes! Don't mother-in-law, hurry up and give us the room number plate. Everyone else shouted.

"Everyone, listen to me." The stone shopkeeper pressed his hands and signaled quiet.

"Say it quickly." Everyone said in unison.

"That's the case, the Chinese Valentine's Day is approaching, the number of foreign tourists in Lucheng has soared, the inns in the city are overcrowded, and although the store is simple, the housing is also very tight, so well!" The stone shopkeeper sold a pass and did not continue.

"You just say how much it is, are you afraid that we won't be able to pay for the room in the hotel?" The tall man spoke again.

"Yes! Oh, yes! You just make an offer, and we can't wait. The crowd spoke in unison again.

"Hey, hey! The price is like this......" The stone shopkeeper smiled, and then quoted a staggering house price.

"What? You're sitting on the ground. ”

"How can you do this business, and you will be black-hearted when you see money?"

"The most upscale inn in the city doesn't have such a high price as you!"

"Black shop! Black shop! We don't live anymore, let's go! ”

The crowd suddenly boiled, noisy and shouting, and many people jumped to their feet and scolded, but no one left, even if some people shouted to leave, but they did not move their feet.

"The old man is not reluctant, he is willing to accept the offer, he paid the money here, and he will arrange to move in immediately." The stone shopkeeper sat down calmly, looking confident and in control.

The stone shopkeeper is indeed sitting on the ground to start the price, and the price increase is determined by the distance from the stone three-person room, the closer it gets, the higher the increase, and the lowest one has also risen to three times that of weekdays.

In addition, the two guest rooms downstairs where Bai Xue and Zi Ling lived were even crowned by the stone shopkeeper as "there are fairies with three feet above their heads", so the price increased to ten times.

Such a sudden rise in the sky-high house price made many people present stunned, they quietly touched the shy money bag, and had to shake their heads and smile bitterly, thinking that the fairy was really not accessible to ordinary people.

"Under the fairy, the scenery is unique, such a good fate, it is rare to meet in a hundred years, and it is difficult to find a thousand gold!" A warm voice groaned.

"Boom!" There was a dull sound.

A young man appeared in front of the stone shopkeeper, and at the same time, there was an extra ingot of gold on the counter.
