Chu Liuyan pretended to be a female guest playing Yingtian, Shi Shiran passed through several alleys, and walked towards the inn with the lacquered gold signboard of the four big characters of the Gaosheng Inn.

When he arrived at the door of the inn, a very eye-catching guy rushed out, bowed down and greeted Chu Liuyan eagerly: "The girl is a sharp or a hotel, our inn is a first-class clean inn in Yingtian City, although it is not very big, but it is elegant and gratifying, and I guarantee that you will not want to leave after you stay." ”

Chu Liuyan heard that what this guy said was extremely interesting, so he asked: "This girl likes elegant and clean guest rooms, but she doesn't like to live in an inn with monks and nuns, do you have such characters in the inn?" ”

When the guy heard this, he thought that this girl was really difficult to serve, but he had to pull one by one, no matter whether he had money or not, as long as he moved in, he would be able to get some more wages, so he said courteously: "Girl, don't worry, there will be no monks and nuns in the inn for me to stay." ”

Chu Liuyan smiled slightly and said, "You have no basis for what you say, how dare I believe it." ”

Saying that, Chu Liuyan made a gesture to leave, and the guy at the inn hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said, "Girl, don't you go, I'll take it to see the shopkeeper of our inn." It's clear who moved in today, but it's clear to the shopkeeper, you won't tell me that I'm lying. ”

Chu Liuyan listened to the man's words, then stood on his feet and said, "That's it, then I won't go to another inn, and you can go to the display case and ask and ask." ”

When the man heard this, he said happily, "Okay, girl, please come with me." ”

While saying the words of Fengying, the guy led Chu Liuyan into the inn and came to the counter.

As soon as the shopkeeper saw that the man welcomed a female guest, he said enthusiastically: "Is the girl here to stay, there are some plain rooms in our store, and the girl can choose the room she likes to stay in." ”

Chu Liuyan pretended to want to move in, and carefully looked at the store for a while before he spoke: "What the shopkeeper said is that when you come out to stay in the inn, you naturally have to choose an inn that is in harmony with your heart, if you don't live in accordance with your wishes, wouldn't it be a waste of money." ”

The guy was busy next to the shopkeeper and said: "Shopkeeper, this girl said that she wanted to stay in the inn, but there is a small condition, that is, she does not want to live with the monk nun, the villain said to this girl that there is no monk and nun in the inn today, but this girl does not approve, but thinks that the little one is deceiving, so I have to bring this girl to the shopkeeper here, hoping that the shopkeeper can defend me a thing or two." ”

Saying that, the guy pretended to be aggrieved, as if Chu Liuyan had really wronged him.

The shopkeeper hurriedly smiled at Chu Liuyan and said: "Girl, the guy in our inn is the most kind, and he will never deceive guests, he said that there are no monks and nuns staying today, that is, there are no monks and nuns staying in the house, and the old man can testify." ”

Chu Liuyan saw that the guy and the shopkeeper were playing double reeds together, and wanted to trick himself into staying in this inn, he laughed in his heart, but he didn't expose it, but just said idly: "Originally, I should have believed it when my husband opened his mouth, but my mother ate fasting and worshipping Buddha, and she was extremely pious, but she was instigated by a few monks and nuns to do a few rituals, and gave away thousands of taels of silver in vain, but it was cheaper for those monks and nuns to make a lot of money from it." Later, when the matter came to light, I kicked them out of the mansion, and since then, I have not liked monks and nuns. ”

The shopkeeper listened, Mom, it cost thousands of taels of silver to do a few rituals, and it was also a mansion, it seems that the girl in front of her is not small, Xu is the daughter of a big family, because she is greedy to play, if you are good at it, it is also considerable to throw a few rewards down.

Thinking like this in his heart, the shopkeeper wanted to do this business more and more, so he said to Chu Liuyan: "The old man can only ensure that there are no monks and nuns staying in the inn today, if the girl doesn't believe it, you can check the account books on the old man's desk, and you can know that what the old man said is true." ”

Chu Liuyan had actually caught a glimpse of the account book placed in front of the shopkeeper a long time ago, but after all, it was an inn's thing, and he couldn't check it at will, so he came up with this idea to provoke the shopkeeper, but he didn't expect the shopkeeper to fall into the trap so quickly.

Chu Liuyan said aloud: "Since the old gentleman said so, it is better to be respectful than to obey his orders, so I will check one or two and return the old gentleman." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he pushed the account book in front of Chu Liuyan and said, "The girl will check it carefully as soon as possible, and the old man will wait." ”

Chu Liuyan took the account book, spread it on the countertop, found the record of the day, and checked it carefully.

Turning to a page, I saw that it was written: Thirteen merchants from Hanyang, three taels of silver.

Chu Liuyan's heart moved, knowing that these people were very likely to be the strange merchants he had met this morning, that is, the spies who were sent by the Han King Chen Youliang to spy on the news. It's just that whether it is really those people or not, Chu Liuyan still has some uncertainty in his heart and can't decide.

The shopkeeper looked at Chu Liuyan staring at this page in a daze, and was quite curious in his heart, so he also glanced down and said: "Girl, although Chen Youliang, the king of Han in Hanyang, has fought a few times with our Yingtian Wu Guo, the old man originally didn't want to take in the merchants of Hanyang, but these people indicated that they wanted to stay in my inn. Lao Yu is a small businessman, as soon as he heard the other party say this, and he came from afar, he couldn't drive people out, after all, all the money was money, so he kept them to live, but although these people came from Hanyang, they had a lot of money. ”

The guy next to him said: "Shopkeeper, these people are not only generous, but also very good at eating and drinking, and let me go out to buy several servings of pig's head meat, cut more than ten catties of beef, and asked for twenty-seven or eight jars of good wine from our store." You didn't believe it, so you slapped off the mud one by one, and poured it directly into your mouth with the jar, the scene was really breathtaking. But these people are also quite strange, they don't drink in the hall, they have to ask me to pick up the table and stools into the room, fill them up, and then secretly drink, don't make a fist, don't make a sound, I thought these people were good men from Liangshan, thinking about robbing a rich family. ”

The showcase's smack of the guy and said, "Didn't I tell you many times, let your kid serve the guests carefully, don't talk too much in front of people, why don't you listen." ”

The guy jumped to the side flexibly with his hands and feet, and said to the shopkeeper with a smile: "Shopkeeper, you also know that villains are easy to change and difficult to change, how can such a fun thing be held back." ”

The showcase's scolding said: "I can't hold it back, haven't you heard people say a lot of trouble, if these people are really Liangshan bandits, let them hear these words of yours, I'm afraid that tomorrow your kid will have to be corpsed on the street, don't think about letting me collect your corpse when the time comes." ”

The shopkeeper's stern intimidation played a role, and the man's face changed and said: "I can't listen to you, the villain has no father and no mother, and he has been adopted by the shopkeeper since he was a child, if he really dies, he has to rely on the handout of the shopkeeper to bury the villain in a thin coffin." The showcase, the villain has been working hard for you for so many years, you can't ignore the small one. ”

Speaking of sadness, the man wiped away tears.

The showcase hurriedly paced and said: "Bad luck, bad luck, open the door to do business, how can you say such frustrating words, the guests are still waiting on the side, don't cry." ”

Chu Liuyan listened to the showcase and the man's words, and became more and more sure in his heart that the merchant from Hanyang was likely to be the spy he wanted to arrest today.

Thinking like this, Chu Liuyan felt the need to go to the vicinity of the room of this group of merchants to explore the situation, Chu Liuyan hastily read the remaining pages, and then said to the display cabinet: "Shopkeeper, there are really no monks and nuns staying today, and the time is not early, so I will stay in your shop." ”

The shopkeeper was very happy when he heard this, and said: "The girl still has eyesight, although our Gaosheng Inn is not the largest inn in Yingtian, but the level is not as good as the largest inn, but it is the best inn of the first class." ”

Listening to the shopkeeper Wang Po's self-selling boast of selling melons, Chu Liuyan smiled unconsciously, and took out a tael of silver and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, here is a tael of silver, you take it first, let this guy take me to see the room first, I will pick a favorite one first." ”
