Chapter 292: Unscrupulous Shopkeeper
"What? Only one left? ”
The two have changed three inns, and they are full of customers, and when they come to this fourth one, it looks quite classy, but there is only one empty room left. I couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
"Is it because of tonight's talent show?" Xiao Yao couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, Childe. Persuade the son to go to another house again. If it weren't for the coincidence of the two of them, I'm afraid there would be no more of them. What do you think? The two of you have thought about it, to live or not to live? The innkeeper's tone was quite arrogant, leaning lazily against a pillar, waiting for Xiao Yao's reply.
Xiao Yao turned around and looked out, it was already dark. He turned his head back to look at the eldest lady, smiled helplessly, and asked her for advice with his eyes. "To live or not to live?"
The eldest lady's face was slightly red, and she threw a roll of her eyes at Xiao Yao, "You want to sleep outside, Miss Ben doesn't care." ”
Xiao Yao smiled bitterly and said to Xiao Er: "Then let's stay." ”
"Okay, this upper room is five taels of silver for one night, and the son can pay ten taels of silver as a deposit."
When the shopkeeper heard that Xiao Yao wanted to live, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he came to his senses. Immediately ran to the front desk to bring a pot of tea, two cups, nodded and filled with tea. He ripped off the handkerchief on his shoulder, dusted off the two benches beside him, and motioned for the two to sit down and drink tea.
"Five taels of silver for a night? Are you robbing money?! ”
When Xiao Yao heard the shopkeeper's words, he asked angrily. You must know that the most you can do in the hotel is only one or two pieces of silver, so you can obviously take advantage of the fire to rob!
Seeing Xiao Yao's reflection, the shopkeeper who had just bloomed happily changed his face in an instant, looked at Xiao Yao with disdain, and picked up the tea that had just been poured for Xiao Yao, "What uncle do you have no money for?" There is a ruined temple outside the city, and there are beggars there, and they live for free, and you can go there and live there, and no one will stop you. ”
After speaking, he raised his head upwards and drank the whole cup of tea. The movements are elegant and smooth, and you can see at a glance that it is definitely after long-term practice that you can be so proficient!
He picked up the teacup in front of the eldest lady again, turned around and walked away.
This completely shocked Xiao Yao and the eldest lady. It's really the first time I've encountered such an arrogant shopkeeper. Even if the eldest lady with a kind temperament can't help but be a little displeased, why how powerful! Get up and leave.
"Miss, don't be impatient!"
Xiao Yao raised his hand and shook it, stopping the eldest lady who was about to get up, his eyes rolled, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and a very evil thought arose.
Turning his head to the boss, he called, "Shopkeeper, please come and sit down, let's talk." ”
When the shopkeeper heard Xiao Yao's greeting, he just sneered without smiling, swaggered to Xiao Yao, and said impatiently: "What else does the guest officer have to say?" Money is indispensable, live and live, and leave as soon as possible if you don't live, don't affect the business of our store! ”
"You! Hmph, that's unreasonable! Even if Miss Ben is rich, she will never live in your unscrupulous black inn! ”
Before Xiao Yao could respond, the eldest lady was really angry. I rarely go out on weekdays, and where do I see so many outrageous things? Now that it has happened to me, I only feel angry, and I can't stand it anymore.
"Hey, Miss, that's what you said. The small store is open to do business, and you are willing to do it, and you don't force the two of you to live in this store. You can do it yourself, don't send it! Hum! ”
The shopkeeper squinted at the eldest lady, then at Xiao Yao, snorted coldly, and was about to throw off his sleeves and leave, but was pulled by Xiao Yao. "Well, you shopkeeper are angry, please take a seat."
As he spoke, he took out a suffocating stack of silver tickets from his bosom and placed them on the table.
The shopkeeper wanted to get rid of Xiao Yao, but it was like being caught by iron tongs, and he couldn't break free. Angrily turned around and was about to scold, but at a glance he saw the stack of genuine silver tickets on the table, fluttered, and knelt on the ground uncontrollably, his body trembled, his eyes stared at the silver tickets on the table in a daze, he couldn't move anymore, and he kept swallowing and spitting.
"Yikes! Shopkeeper, what are you doing?! Hurry up, please. ”
Xiao Yao pretended to be surprised, gently lifted the shopkeeper's position, and gave up a seat for the shopkeeper to sit down.
didn't think about it and just sat for a while, the shopkeeper stood up excitedly, stood one step away from Xiao Yao, looked at Xiao Yao and the eldest lady with a smile and a cry, and the facial expression made the eldest lady want to laugh.
"Shopkeeper, shall we discuss something?" Xiao Yao asked with a smile at the shopkeeper.
"Master, you say. It's up to you to tell you to be small. Go to the soup and fight the fire, and never give up. The shopkeeper stood there flatteringly, rubbing his hands together incessantly. From time to time, his eyes couldn't help but sweep to the silver ticket on the table.
"Ben Gongzi just heard that your store is full now, right? How many people live there? Xiao Yao asked casually.
When the shopkeeper heard the question, he was slightly stunned, and hurriedly replied: "There are a total of fifteen rooms in this store, and the last vacant room is gone, and the remaining fourteen rooms have already been inhabited by guests, including husbands and wives, merchants, scholars, and a few knights. There were about twenty people. ”
"Well, that's good. How much is the monthly revenue of your store? ”
At this moment, the shopkeeper just wants to coax the master in front of him and get some benefits. It doesn't matter what Xiao Yao asks, he must answer all questions. I saw his hands pinching his fingers and counting for a moment, "Master, the monthly revenue of the small store is about three hundred taels of silver." ”
Xiao Yao looked at him and chuckled, took out a five-hundred-tael from a stack of silver tickets on the table, held it in his hand and shook it. The shopkeeper's heart pounded violently. Overjoyed, could it be that God really opened his eyes and let himself meet the God of Wealth.
"You will now blast away all the guests who live in the store, and then go and find a hundred dogs for Ben Gongzi in an hour, and this silver ticket will be yours. How? ”
Belch.
Not only was the shopkeeper stunned, but even the eldest lady beside him was messed up by Xiao Yao. Why do you use so many dogs? What pranks are you doing again?!
Money can make ghosts grind, and under the careful thinking of the shopkeeper, he looked at the silver ticket in Xiao Yao's hand and did it! "It's all up to the child's orders, the little one will go now. Childe waits. ”
After saying that, he trotted upstairs. Soon I heard the shopkeeper's roar in his throat: "Open the door to Lao Tzu!" All of them are gone, and our store is no longer doing business today. Hurry up! It's all open! ”
Listening to the noisy and chaotic scolding upstairs, "What the hell are you doing?" The eldest lady asked in a whisper.
Xiao Yao smiled evilly at the eldest lady, "For this kind of black-hearted boss, you have to let him eat the consequences, and look at the clever plan of this immortal!" ”
After a while, I saw guests coming downstairs one after another to curse and walk out.
It didn't take long for the guests to leave, and there was not much left.
"Ah, oops! Uncle spare his life! Uncle spare his life! ”
At this moment, I only heard the shouts of the shopkeeper killing pigs from upstairs. After the tea cup again, I heard a few loud bangs, and a person rolled down from the staircase, Xiao Yao and the eldest lady looked at it intently, it was the innkeeper.
Looking at his appearance, his clothes were disheveled, his hair was unkempt, his nose was blue and his face was swollen, his eyes were black, and there was a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth. "Yo, shopkeeper, why are you? Why did it become what it was? ”
Xiao Yao couldn't help but laugh and asked as he pretended to be surprised.
After another moment, I saw several strong men with swords walking down from downstairs, coming to the hall, slapping the blades on the table, pulling out a few benches, stepping on them, glaring angrily at the shopkeeper who was lying on the ground moaning, and shouted angrily: "Get out of here!" ”
The shopkeeper was frightened by the cheers, and crawled to a few big men on his knees with severe pain, and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy: "The little one has eyes but no beads, and he has eyes that don't know Mount Tai, and he has offended your masters." You adults don't care about the villains, bypass the small ones. Don't dare again. ”
"Go and set a table of good wine and good food for the uncle, serve it well, and the uncle will spare you from death! If the service is not good, hum! ”
The big man is already full of meat, his face is fierce and vicious, this scare, almost scared the shopkeeper half to death, then dare to have other ideas, thinking about the first few uncles in front of him to serve happy, it is only right to avoid this catastrophe.
Hurriedly endured the pain, nodded and laughed, and limped back step by step to prepare the wine and food.
"Wait."
Xiao Yao shouted.
