469 Shangri-La
Wuniu County, Dongpeng Province, Xiangyun Bus Station in the eastern suburbs of the county.
I walked out of the bus station with the fat man covering his nose, damn, the minibus to Jiangjun Township had to go to another passenger station to transfer, and the conductor who patted his chest before getting on the bus and promised that he didn't need to transfer looked at us innocently, opening his mouth in standard plastic Mandarin: "Did I say that?" You must have misheard. β
As soon as they got out of the bus station, a group of middle-aged women gathered around, speaking the local dialect, although they couldn't understand it, but the signs they held in their hands clearly expressed their meaning.
"Accommodation, twenty-five yuan a night, with air conditioning and hot water."
"Accommodation, free local calls, satellite TV."
β¦β¦
There were about seven or eight of these women, and they almost surrounded the two of us, and in desperation, I could only shout: "Let me go, we are going to change trains, no accommodation!" β
Hearing this, the group of women dispersed in a hurry, but one woman stayed behind, speaking in Mandarin: "Where are you going by car?" β
I glanced at her: "We're going to General Township." β
"General Township?" The middle-aged woman suddenly laughed and said, "Are you going to the Grand Pier Passenger Station?" I advise you not to go, because there is only one minibus to Jiangjun Township, which departs at half past one at noon every day, and now it is already 2:40. As he spoke, he raised his wrist and pointed to his watch to show us.
"We can rent a car to get there!" The fat man smiled: "How much does it cost to charter a bus to General Township?" β
"Rent a car? I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. Because the Jiangjun Township side is a mountain road paved with stones, full of potholes, and the stomach of the car is very low, the driver will not go. The middle-aged woman gestured with her hand to make a bumpy and undulating motion: "Unless, you rent a shuttle." β
The belly of the trolley is low? Then I reacted, she said that the chassis of the car should be very low, if you can't rent a car, it will be a real trouble.
For fear that we don't believe it, the middle-aged woman volunteered to take us to the big wharf passenger station, I asked the staff, sure enough, the shuttle bus to Jiangjun Township set off at half past one, and at the door to find those taxis, said that they were going to Jiangjun Township, the drivers all shook their heads like rattles, and one of the young drivers said: "Boss, even if you pay more money, even if I sell the car to you, I can't go, because that road is too cheating, our kind of car can't pass at all!" β
Is it really just waiting for tomorrow's bus?
The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "Two of you, why don't you go to our hotel for one night and come back tomorrow?" β
"Thank you beauty...... the fat man looked at the middle-aged woman's face, and said: "Thank you for your kindness, but your room is only twenty-five yuan a night, and the environment is not very good, and we are really not at ease when we live." β
The middle-aged woman suddenly became a little anxious: "I can ask the boss to vacate the best room for you, to ensure that it is more comfortable than those rooms for two or three hundred and one nights, and when you eat in our hotel, chickens, ducks, fish and everything are freshly killed, and the dishes are also freshly picked, fresh and green, don't you rich bosses pay attention to this?" By the way, our innkeeper is from Jiangjun Township, aren't you going to Jiangjun Township? He can tell you about the situation in the General's Township. β
The last words of the middle-aged woman touched me, and I followed her with the fat man to the door of a hotel.
The hotel is a three-storey building, the first floor is a restaurant, the second and third floors are accommodation, and above the door is a sign made of spray cloth, with a lot of scantily clad beauties on the screen, and in the middle there are seven big words 'Shangri-La Hotel', and then there is a row of small words next to it 'Snow Beer, buy one get one free'.
To the left of the faΓ§ade is a counter with a greased and powdered woman sitting in it, and behind the counter is a sofa on which a young woman with a beautiful face sits and looks up at the TV hanging on the wall while munching on melon seeds. There are two round tables in the middle, and on the right is the staircase going upstairs, and there is a small door under the stairs where you can see the pots and pans inside, which should be the kitchen.
Seeing the middle-aged woman bring us in, the woman behind the counter hurriedly stood up: "Sister Zhang, are these two bosses staying or eating?" β
"Accommodation and food." Sister Zhang, a middle-aged woman, smiled, and then blinked: "Boss, you have to give them the best room, these two bosses are from a big place." β
Damn, call her boss, call us boss, what do you mean?
The proprietress paused for a moment, and then came to her senses: "Okay, okay." He turned to us and said with a smile: "But, two bosses, the best room in our hotel costs a hundred yuan a night." β
I've been walking the rivers and lakes for so many years, where don't I understand their tricks, isn't it just the big boss, the layout of all the rooms must be the same, and then take us to a room casually, throw a few pornographic VCDs, a few rolls of toilet paper, the so-called luxury room treatment, nothing more than that.
However, I don't care about these tricks, the main purpose of coming here is to ask the innkeeper about the general township, as for the accommodation, after asking about the situation, just pull out the leg and leave, which is equivalent to taking a hundred yuan to ask for directions. But you can't just throw a hundred yuan and ask for directions, in that case, people take a hundred yuan and fabricate something casually, how do you know if it's true or not? Only this kind of unintentional set is real.
Sister Zhang chatted with the proprietress for a few words, and went out by herself, and the proprietress took us up to the second floor, opened a room, and beckoned us in. After glancing at us, the proprietress suddenly smiled weirdly: "Two bosses, do you want to serve?" β
"Service? What services? "I was a little surprised.
The proprietress smiled and flattered: "Boss, don't pretend, the girl who was sitting behind me watching TV just now, are you okay?" If I can, I'll let her serve you for a fixed price, a hundred dollars at a time! β
Hearing this, the fat man said with a smile: "Boss, don't cheat us, I've been traveling from south to north for so many years, what hotel haven't I lived in?" In a place like yours, this girl is at most fifty dollars at a time. β
The proprietress suddenly laughed and said, "I'm talking about the two of you!" β
I hurriedly stopped the two of them from talking, if I let the fat guy extend on this kind of topic, he could talk for hours without stopping: "Boss, let's eat first, those things will be talked about in the evening, and I am also a little hungry after a few hours in the car." β
The proprietress looked at me with a sneer: "This boss, if you like to be more mature, do you think I'm okay?" β
I laughed: "If you don't eat, you don't have strength, and if you don't have strength, you can't get hard." Eat first, eat first! β
There is another sentence in my heart but I don't say it, just like you, even if I eat enough, I can't get up.
The meal was made quickly, I have to say, the taste of the dish is still very good, I ate a few bites of food, asked the proprietress to bring two bottles of beer, and by the way, asked her to sit down and eat together, the proprietress was not polite, sat next to us and poured wine.
"Boss, where's your boss?" I asked casually.
"You said that dead ghost, working in Guangzhou!" The proprietress flew over: "Even if I don't go back to sleep, no one cares." β
Ignoring the boss's hint that was close to explicit, I was extremely depressed, damn, the boss is not here, what are you doing with so much effort? immediately wanted to get up and leave, and thought about it, since the boss is from the general's township, it is not clear that this boss lady is too, after all, in their era, the marriage objects will not be too far apart.
At the moment, I talked to her a few more words, and said to the fat man casually: "Boss Ding, this time you went to Cauliflower Village in Jiangjun Township to buy medicinal materials, did you bring enough money?" β
The fat man was stunned for a moment, and then patted his chest heroically: "The money is there, I'm afraid they won't have the goods!" β
As soon as these words came out, the young girl sitting next to her watching TV turned her head and looked the fat man up and down.
"You're going to General Township?" The proprietress said in surprise.
"Yes, I just didn't catch the car today, so I was brought over by that eldest sister." I laughed.
"I didn't say it earlier, I'm from Jiangjun Township." The proprietress laughed.
"Oh, really? Then the boss, tell me, there are no robbers in Jiangjun Township, right? I laughed.
"Where are the robbers now, but I heard that Cauliflower Village has not been quiet these days." The proprietress frowned: "I heard it's haunted." β
"Won't it?" I feigned surprise.
"That's right, I heard that the family surnamed Wei often runs out of the family to break their hands and feet." The proprietress said in a low voice.
"I've seen a lot of broken hands and feet." I said disapprovingly.
"But have you ever seen those broken hands and feet that can walk on their own?" When the proprietress said this, she seemed to be a little scared, her whole body shuddered, and she changed the topic with a forced smile: "I also heard what others said, rumors, they can't be true, don't believe it!" β
Naturally, I was not satisfied with such a thing, and hurriedly continued to ask, "It's really strange that my hands and feet can move on their own." Boss, you can talk to us carefully, so that we can have a bottom in our hearts, if there is really a ghost, then wouldn't we kill ourselves when we go? β
But the proprietress refused to say anything else, and no matter how hard I tried, she didn't say anything about the haunting.
After dinner, I went back to the room with the fat man, closed the door, and I frowned and said, "Fat man, there is something wrong with this proprietress . β
"Well, I can also see that there is something wrong with her, according to my visual inspection, her Mi/Mi is obviously a B cup, and she is wearing a C-cup underwear, how can this person be so dishonest?" The fat man said indignantly.
"Damn, I'm down to business." I laughed and scolded: "The way she looks behind her is clearly pretending, as if she is deliberately whetting our appetites, and then using it to achieve something, she must know something." β
