Chapter 232: Not Expensive, Ten Alchemy
In the middle of the vast expanse of desolate Gobi, a dilapidated stone and earth wall encircles a two-storey wooden building that looks weather-beaten.
Xia Fan looked at the gaps in the walls on both sides that were broken wider than the gate, and finally led the carriage into the courtyard from under the crumbling gate.
As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, Xia Fan noticed that there were several saddled horses tied to the tattered stables outside the store, and a simple but clean and tidy sturdy stableman was humming a vulgar song while sending fine rare food plants to the trough, and it seemed that there was still some business in this store.
At this time, when he saw Xia Fan and the others coming in, the horse boy immediately bowed and greeted him again and again, without speaking, and knelt directly in front of Xia Fan and the others with a smile on his face, raised his hands flat above his head, and stretched out his hands to Xia Fan and the others with his head bowed respectfully.
This really shocked Xia Fan, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Ling Yu with a puzzled face.
Ling Yu pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Young Master Fan, he is asking you for the reins." ”
"Hey, I thought what was the matter? Leading a horse is like receiving a holy decree, you have been trained in a certain island country?"
Xia Fan hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help the stableman up, "Brother, hurry up, we are all toiling people, I used to be a runaway, I can't stand you!"
Saying that, Xia Fan stuffed the reins of the carriage and an alchemy into the stable's hand, and said politely, "Brother, thank you for taking care of you!"
Yan Chenyin and Blazing Yang also handed the reins into the hands of the stable, and they also hugged their fists to the stableman without any intimidation.
Seeing that Xia Fan and the others were so kind and very generous, the stableman immediately thanked Dade deeply, happily dragged Xia Fan and the others' carriages and horses to the stable, and took care of them carefully.
"Sister Lingyu, do you think they are a little abnormal here?" Xia Fan asked Lingyu suspiciously, "Is it necessary to lead a horse like this? I think his business here should be okay, right? Kneel is a bit too exaggerated, right? This is really treating guests as gods!"
Ling Yu smiled, "Young Master Fan, this is not abnormal at all, but it is normal."
Master Fan rarely travels in the world, and he may not know the reason.
If it is the merchants and shops in the city-state, it is better, and most of them are taken care of by the powerful forces.
And where will the business in this borderlands be cared for by the strong?
You must know that the inn business here welcomes visitors from all over the world, and both good and evil may come here, and there will never be a shortage of strong people from Jueluo.
However, many strong people who feel the Tao are not good, and they will kill if they neglect it slightly.
However, Heaven has the virtue of a good life, and enlightened cultivators must not kill innocents indiscriminately, otherwise they will suffer the punishment of heaven, destroy their enlightenment, and destroy their Dao minds.
However, if they are insulted and disrespectful, the enlightened cultivator can also kill the mortal.
Therefore, the parity who welcomes guests here naturally has to kowtow more, talk less, and don't find fault with others, so as to live longer. ”
"I said, why didn't he even say a word!" Fei Yi listened to Ling Yu's explanation.
Xia Fan shook his head and sighed, "Yes, if you meet a tricky scoundrel, even if you say hello to him, you can also make up the accusation." If that stableman really took the initiative to come up and lead the horse, he would naturally be able to kill people directly on the charge of stealing the horse!"
"Young Master Fan is right. Ling Yu couldn't help but say abruptly, "In this world where Jueluo is respected, ordinary people really have to live cautiously......"
"......" Xia Fan was helpless about such a world, so he could only silently wish the stableman good luck in his heart, "Okay, let's go into the store and rest." ”
With that, everyone stepped into the door of the inn.
"Oops! The honored guest has arrived!
As soon as Xia Fan and the others entered the door, they saw a beautiful young woman in bright clothes already trotting over, with a clear voice, a moving smile, and a very enthusiastic voice, which made it impossible to refuse.
"Oh! Young masters and young ladies have worked hard all the way! There is still a private seat for all distinguished guests here! Please take a seat! The one who has no long eyes is pouring warm tea for the distinguished guests!"
The beautiful young woman was very enthusiastic about inviting Xia Fan and the others to sit down around a square table made of simple wood, and at the same time she was busy greeting back and forth.
"You don't have long legs, but you're a little sharper!"
The woman screamed and urged the cousin, and looked at Xia Fan and the others with a smile on her face.
"Hey, it's really enviable to see that these young ladies look like fairies!
The woman's enthusiasm overwhelmed Fei Yi and the others, except for Ling Yu, Yan Chenyin, Blazing Yang, Fei Yi, and Yingluo were all ignorant of the world, although they had also followed Xia Fan all the way through the dust for a while, but they had never really come into contact with market life.
However, Xia Fan's enthusiasm for the young woman was not refused, after all, Xia Fan was messing around, and he was also a good person, and his ability to see people speak was definitely no worse than this young woman.
Xia Fan looked at the woman, she was in her thirties and had just the right charm, she looked good and was a little charming, such capital and a lot of shrewdness could indeed play this business on thin ice.
Xia Fan glanced at the situation in the store, in addition to the dilapidated furnishings, the hall was also quite spacious, and there was a row of guest rooms upstairs, no less than a dozen.
At this time, there were also four or five tables of guests in the dozen or so tables in the hall, some in groups of three or five, and some alone.
And Xia Fan also saw that there were also a few rooms upstairs with some doors and windows secretly opened, and while Xia Fan was looking at those people, those people were also secretly observing Xia Fan and the others.
However, it seemed that only the voice of the beautiful young woman could be heard in this inn, and the other guys who ran the hall all lowered their heads and went about their work, but none of them dared to speak to the guests.
To put it bluntly, this inn is completely supported by this young woman, and this woman is not simple.
Xia Fan smiled and said, "Are you the proprietress here?"
"Oh, the honorable guest is really lifting up the slave family!" the young woman said with a smile, "The slave family's cheap name is 'Ah Fu', where do you dare to hold it up in front of the honored guests? If the honorable guests have any orders, just call the slave family's name directly! The slave family will go to Zhang Luo immediately!"
"Hello Sister Fu, if there is anything good to eat and drink here, just go up, and arrange a few rooms for us, and I'll leave after a night's rest." Xia Fan said with a smile.
"Oh! You see that this young master has really killed the slave family! It is really rare to meet such a beloved guest as the young master, please rest assured, you young masters and young ladies can rest assured, coming to the slave family is definitely the best hospitality!"
Ah Fu smiled very naturally and said, "But the slave family dares to die here, so I first asked you to pay the lodging fee." ”
“?......”
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, they paid the money first and then stayed in the hotel, wouldn't this kind of business offend people? Although Xia Fan could accept it, after all, he had done this business in the bar before, but he felt very uncomfortable for Fei Yi and the others.
However, Lingyu immediately said disapprerovingly, "Young Master, it is not easy to welcome guests here, we should pay the accommodation fee first and then ask the store to entertain you hard." ”
"Why?" asked Fei Yi, puzzled.
Naturally, I am worried that the wicked will be reckless and unreasonable. Lingyu smiled and said, "If the strongman eats and stays and then leaves, it is not considered a great evil to destroy the Dao cultivation, and the store can't stop it, and this kind of business will not be able to be done sooner or later." ”
"Oh! This young lady is not only beautiful, but also sensible! If all the people who come are honored guests like the young lady, the slave family's business will be easy to do!"
Ah Fu praised Lingyu like a bosom friend.
"This is easy to say!" Xia Fan smiled, "Sister Fu, but how much is it!"
"The young master is also a heroic person!"
Ah Fu praised and said with a smile, "It's not expensive, ten alchemy." ”
"Huh?!Isn't that expensive?" Fei Yi was directly surprised when he heard this.
“......”
Although Xia Fan didn't care about ten alchemies, it was indeed a bit flattering based on the conditions he saw in front of him.
"Hey, don't blame the young master and young master, the slave family wants these ten alchemies, no more, no less, just what is worth the entire inn of the slave family, and the inns in this ghost place also do this. ”
Ah Fu explained with a smile, "Young masters and young ladies don't often walk around on this road, naturally they don't know, there are strong people at the end of three days in our wild shops, and in a few casual strokes, the house collapses, and there is no tile left!"
When the strong people of Juedao fight, we mortals naturally hurry to run for our lives, and when the fight is over, we don't dare to go to someone to compensate for the loss! And most of the time, people will not stay here and wait to lose money!
Therefore, the inns on this road first charge the price of the entire inn, and then the distinguished guests are free.
If the guests destroy the inn again, we don't care, just build a new one. ”
"Each group of customers charges money for a store?" Xia Fan asked in surprise.
"That's right, whether the visitors are riding alone or in groups, only ten alchemy will be collected. Ah Fu said with a smile.
"Brother Fan, then we won't lose anything!" said Blazing Yang.
Xia Fan glanced at the blazing sun with a smile, turned his head to Ah Fu and said with a smile, "Sister Fu, you are the real book of Wanli! Admire!
Saying that, Xia Fan directly took out a handful of alchemy from his arms, and slapped it directly into Ah Fu's hand without looking at it.
"Sister Fu, then thank you for taking care of it. ”
As soon as Ah Fu took the alchemy, his eyebrows and eyes widened and he smiled, and as soon as he started his hand, he knew that there were at least fifteen or sixteen alchemy, and Ah Fu was surprised and delighted.
"Oh! The young master really made the slave family love to death! The young ladies are really blessed! If the slave family meets such the right person at your age, how can you still suffer in this desolate place?"
"It's not too late to meet now, our young master Fan likes to kidnap beautiful women the most. Fei Yi rolled her eyes.
"Miss teased Ah Fu, I still hurried to give a few Zhang Luo wine and food. Ah Fu raised his eyebrows and instructed the cousin who had just finished pouring warm tea for everyone on the side, "You don't have a long brain, why don't you hurry up and prepare wine and good food for the distinguished guests?
The hall nodded again and again, and flew to the back kitchen.
Ah Fu smiled at Xia Fan and the others, "Young Master and Miss will drink warm tea to moisten their mouths first, and the slave family will urge those who don't have long hands in the back to serve you food quickly, and then come to greet a few distinguished guests later!"
Saying that, Ah Fu also went happily.
"He who has no eyes, no legs, no brains, no hands...... She's so funny here!" Yingluo smiled happily.
"I said that you should be careful, don't be too public, the people around here don't look kind, don't provoke right and wrong. Fei Yi lowered his voice and whispered to Xia Fan.
"Our eldest lady Fei is also cautious?" Xia Fan said with a smile, "Eldest Miss, the world is impermanent, if you don't provoke right and wrong, right and wrong will also provoke you, it is better to be proud of life!"
"Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh......"
At this moment, I suddenly heard several sounds of breaking wind from outside the store, and the people in the store couldn't help but look out through the doors and windows.
I saw more than a dozen white-clothed figures flying into the air, and Ling Ran landed outside the door of the store!
"Senior brothers, quickly surround the front and back of this inn! Don't let that thief escape again!"
A young man in white with an extraordinary aura commanded loudly.
"Go to two people, kill all the horses in the stable, and this time I see how the fat pig will run?"
......
