Chapter 65: The Man with a Story
Delin City is located on the edge of the central region of Half Moon Shenzhou, and it is more than 170 kilometers away from Shili City in a straight line, and if you count the distance, it is at least 250 kilometers, and there is another city in the middle, called Apu Luo City.
Compared with Ten Mile City, Delin City and Apu Luo City can only be regarded as small cities, but they are much better than Broken Mountain City. Moreover, there are roads between Shili City and Apuluo City, and there are also roads between Apuluo City and Delin City, which are basically funded by merchants, in order to open up the trade route between Shili City and the central region of Half Moon Shenzhou.
On the first day of departure, that is, on the 31st of August, the four of them were in a great hurry, so they rarely stopped on the way, and at eight or nine o'clock in the evening, they arrived at the city of Apuluo.
But unfortunately, it rained, Ge Santian was soaked by the rain in the front of the car because of the reason for controlling the horned deer, and the king of the mountain was the same, after all, it was too big to get on the beast car, and it was also a question whether the horned deer could pull it after getting on the beast car.
As soon as he arrived at the city gate of Apuluo, Ge had to stop because the gate was closed.
Ge Tiantian jumped out of the beast cart and knocked on the city gate, and after a while, a soldier shouted at Ge Santian from the city wall.
"Knock what knock! I wonder if it's past the opening time? ”
"Brother! The rain was too heavy and it was not good to stay outside! Accommodating! Ge Tiantian shouted as he threw a silver coin onto the city wall.
The soldier picked up the silver coin, looked at Ge for three days, and then walked down the stairs of the inner wall of the city wall and opened the city gate.
"What?" The soldier asked impatiently.
"Merchant! Itinerant trader! Ge Tiantian replied with a smile, and at the same time stuffed the soldier with a few silver coins.
The soldier looked at Ge for three days, then at the beast cart, and the last big cheetah came into view, almost scaring him.
"What is this for!"
There are not as many beasts near Apu Fall City as there are near Broken Mountain City, and cheetahs are not common.
Ge Tiantian hurriedly raised his hand and hugged the head of the King of the Mountain, and said:
"Pet plus bodyguard, very well-behaved!"
Seeing that the King of the Mountain was not threatening, the soldier opened a door and urged, "Go in!" Get in! Hurry up! ”
"Okay! Get in now! ”
Ge Tiantian immediately led the horned deer into the city, and turned back to ask the soldiers a question.
"Brother, where is the hotel here?"
"I don't even know where the hotel is, how do you do it?" The soldiers cursed.
"Newbie! Greenhorn! First time in Delin. Ge Tiantian sneered.
"Go straight into the city, most of the streets have it, and the note that the light is still hanging at the door is still open." In order to hurry up and send Ge three days away, the soldier spoke.
"Good! Thank you! ”
Ge thanked him for three days and walked along the main road, on rainy days, the road in this Apuluo city was also a little muddy, but it was better than outside the city.
To Ge Tiantian's disappointment, he did see several hotels, but they were all closed, and there was a sign full of customers hanging at the door.
As a must-pass city on your way to Ten Mile City, there must be many merchants stopping to rest on the way! Especially on rainy days.
Fortunately, when I walked to the end of the street, I finally found an inn with its doors still open, with a rather strange name, called Ann Hotel.
Ge Tiantian shook off the rain on his body and walked into the hotel happily, and the person who saw the store was a female half-moon clan.
"Boss, do you still have a house?" Ge came in three days to be a female half-moon clan.
The innkeeper observed Ge for three days and said, "Yes! How many of you? ”
"Four, plus a big guy and a little guy, the little guy can be ignored, and a beast cart." Ge Tiantian said.
"How big is the big guy!" The innkeeper asked.
Ge Tiantian thought for a while, and shouted outside the door: "Wang, you show your head to the boss." ”
The king of the mountain obediently stretched into half of his body.
"That's it!" Ge Santian said with a smile.
To Ge Sansan's surprise, the innkeeper's expression was very calm, as if he was not surprised.
"The management fee of the animal car plus the accommodation fee, two gold coins, from now until tomorrow noon. If you want to eat hot food, you can go to the restaurant and order it yourself, and the cost will be extra. The innkeeper said calmly.
"Two gold coins!" Ge Tiantian was surprised.
There are only two kinds of currency in circulation in Half Moon Shenzhou: gold and silver coins, and the manufacturing specifications of gold and silver coins are rings with a diameter of one centimeter and a thickness of two millimeters, and the center of the circle is hollow. At its current value, one gold is equal to three hundred silver, and one silver can buy a pound of dry food or a pound of vegetables.
Ge Sansan's surprise was justified, two gold coins and six hundred silver coins could buy six hundred catties of grain, which was already a very large expense, and he could only stay here for one night.
"It's too expensive, you can't live it." The innkeeper said expressionlessly.
"Stay! Live! Here you go, two gold coins. Ge Tiantian was really afraid that the innkeeper would not give him a stay, so he quickly took out the gold coins and put them on the table.
Although it is a little more expensive, although I am surprised, but with Ge's character for three days, money is something outside the body, and it is spent when it is spent, and the important thing is to have a place to stay.
The innkeeper shouted into the store after receiving the gold coins, and a half-moon clan hurriedly ran out, and it could be seen that it should be the inn's junior or something.
"You take the guests to the twelfth floor to rest." The innkeeper said to the shopkeeper.
"Yes, shopkeeper." The shopkeeper responded.
"Guest, you come with me, you stay at the door of the deer cart, I will take you to put it away in a while, and bring it back to you intact when you check out." The shopkeeper said to Ge for three days.
"Oh! Wait a minute, there are three more in the car! ”
Ge Tiantian turned around and went out to bring Lu Xiyao's three daughters into the door, and of course, the Mountain King.
The innkeeper looked at them in surprise when he saw Ge Santian with three girls.
"Guest, please!"
The shopkeeper led the way.
After walking out of the store building and entering the inner courtyard, Ge Sancai found that there was a hole in the inn. It is not like an ordinary hotel with only one or two buildings, but each room number is a single building, connected by a verandah, in which an oil lamp is hung every other way to illuminate the whole inn, and there is a relatively large building in the middle.
"The guest is very fresh, is it the first time to come to our hotel?" The shopkeeper asked Ge for three days with a smile.
"Hmm!" Ge Santian nodded.
"The rooms in our hotel are all detached, and the guests generally received are large business groups, and it is relatively rare to see someone like you."
"The Great Merchant Group?" Ge was relieved for three days, no wonder it was designed.
"Yes! Building 12 is the smallest room we have here. Guest, you see, the round building in the middle, that is the restaurant of our hotel, open 24 hours, if you are hungry and want to eat something, you can go to the restaurant to taste the food of our hotel. "The shop is small and second.
"Good!" Ge Santian nodded.
After a while, the shopkeeper took Ge Tiantian with four people and two beasts to Building 12, a two-story wooden mansion.
"This is the key, please take it!"
Ge Tiantian nodded and took it.
The shopkeeper handed the key to Ge three days later and turned to leave.
"This inn is quite special, I have never seen anything like this in Ten Mile City." Zeng Zilin said.
"Ten Mile City has complete facilities, there is no need to build such a hotel." Ge Tiantian opened the door and said, "Moreover, the fee is so expensive, you have to be special!" ”
When Ge Santian walked into the house, his first impression was that the house was very well decorated, and the living room was also very large, which could accommodate the big guy of the mountain king. There is also an oil lamp on the table in the living room, and you can see almost everything very clearly.
"Hey! Sister, they have a bathroom and hot water! Han Qinghui's happy voice came from the house to the living room.
"Water heat? Is there firewood for us to burn for ourselves? Ge Tiantian asked suspiciously.
"It's not! They have a mechanism here, if we want to wash hot water, we can press the mechanism and they will drain the hot water to us, and if enough is enough, pull the mechanism and they will stop draining. Han Qinghui explained to Ge Santian while reading the instructions in the bathroom.
"Huh! That's pretty special! ”
Ge Santian smiled, he was able to make these famous halls, and he thought that the innkeeper was also a person with a story.
