Chapter 163: The House of the Sea
Nader and Elizabeth left the entrance of the hospital and walked down another path, the two of them, one was the first time to come, and the other had been here many times, but it was all 2000 years ago, so it was not easy to find a hotel where they could stay.
This is not a modern city in the 21st century, the population flow is very huge, an international metropolis, the daily floating population is millions, naturally gave birth to the large star hotels and B&Bs and other places for travelers to live, and here, only the upper class or big businessmen can leave the place of their birth and come to other countries, or cities.
And such a person, but will not be wronged by themselves, generally will buy a mansion in the local area, as a resort for their vacation, no matter how poor, but also have the same living standard of the local aristocracy, so as not to lose their family, and as a nobleman face, this has caused some big cities even if there are hostels for people to rest, it is also luxurious, similar to the palace group of general hotels, and the price of this kind of place, naturally a little expensive.
And in addition to these super luxurious aristocratic hotels, there are those poor poets or unsuccessful bards, anyway, some art people who don't have much money, but like to run around, and no one cares, they generally have a place in various big cities, but the place where they live is really not very good, after all, these people have no money, and naturally let the people who open the hotel can't make a lot of money, and the house prices in Rome are so expensive, naturally they won't give these people too good treatment, so everything can only be simplified, that kind of environment, think about it, you can expect one or two。
However, this is naturally not a big problem for Nader and Elizabeth, with Nader's generous appearance and scholarly demeanor, the two of them quickly found a local hotel that is not bad, specially used to receive those adventurers who have a little extra money, but not much.
After Nader got out of the carriage, he saw the somewhat ingenious hotel standing in front of him, because the building was really eye-catching compared to the surrounding yellow, or earthy yellow and a small amount of white.
The whole house is made of earth and stone, which makes the whole building look very thick, giving people a sense of security and history, and the most special thing is that this three-storey building is covered by bright blue, which makes people feel very cool, and not only that, but at the top of the whole building, in addition to the name of the hotel is written in wood "Home of the Sea" In addition, between the names, a little angel, a little guy like Cupid, made the originally monotonous color suddenly look a lot more lively because of this white angel.
And there are some gecko vines and other green plants on the outside that are entangled and carefully pruned all year round, so that this house is in the green and blue, and it has a touch of elegance, Nader looked at the name of the hotel, and smiled in his heart, this name is really good, travelers, the four seas are home, and this is their home.
Turn your head, the whole building is at the second city gate, around the center of Rome, next to the fourth main road, the traffic is very convenient, as soon as you go out is a wide street that can be used by 8 carriages together, and there is also a special area for carriages and horses for travelers, after inquiry, it is still free to use, which is really good for people like Nader who have little money to spare.
This made Nader very satisfied, although it was only a three-story or so building, and it looked very narrow, and the other main buildings on either side were not like the residences of the social elite, but more like the places where the office workers of Rome lived, which could be called comfortable, but definitely not to the level of enjoyment, but for them, it was enough.
Asking the servants to park the carriage in its exclusive spot, Nader and Elizabeth made their way to the door of the inn.
The young man standing at the door seemed to be basked by the sun, and leaned listlessly in front of his hotel, waiting for the customer who did not know when it would come, until the thing he was leaning on made a "knock knock" sound, which could be regarded as waking Teemo from his dream.
Wiping the saliva that was about to flow, the young man named Schubert diligently gave up his place, and let the old man, who did not look like a poor man, walk in, and could not help but shake his spirits and warn himself.
"Schubert, be confident, I have to remember that if there are no more guests, you will have to get out of Rome. ”
With what he thought was the brightest smile, Schubert shouted "Welcome" to Nader who was about to enter the hotel, but he didn't notice that the bright smile on his face was really very stiff, and his loud voice successfully scared Nader who had just walked in the door.
"Excuse me, do you still have a guest room?"
Nader touched his ears with his hand, although he was old, but his hearing did not deteriorate, and when he usually talked to others, he was also soft-spoken, in order to show what a gentleman and nobleman he was, so he suddenly heard such a loud voice, or it came from the throat of a young man who looked very thin, which really caught Nader a little off guard, and hurriedly took a step back before daring to continue talking.
"Yes, of course, please come in, it's getting a little hot outside. ”
Schubert also apparently noticed that Nader seemed to be frightened by his own voice, so he deliberately lowered his voice, which made Nader a little impressed, because the young man's voice in front of him was unexpectedly a little better after being calmed down.
"Maybe this guy should go to the choir, or the choir. Nader couldn't help but think in his heart, but what other people's lives should be, Nader didn't want to change, so after hearing the news of the house, he was ready to book a room and prepare to move in.
"Alas, old sir, is this your dog?"
After Schubert walked in, he found that behind Nader, there was a puppy, which was walking in with Nader with elegant steps, but after Schubert shouted this sentence, the puppy heard it and glared at Schubert fiercely, which made him a little scared.
"Oh yes, what's the matter, can't pets come in here?"
Before Nader and Elizabeth entered the inn, in order to prevent Elizabeth from talking nonsense and scaring others, they made an agreement with Elizabeth that they would never open their mouths to speak when others were around, and that all questions would be answered by themselves, otherwise, they would leave the city of Rome immediately.
"Amount"
Schubert was a little entangled in his heart, this hostel is indeed as Nader said, pets are not allowed to come in, because Schubert once traveled by himself, in the hostel where he stayed, fed up with these guys, not only can't understand people, but also often chase and run, and then carefully arrange the bed sheets, sofas and so on in the inn to stir up a mess, which made Schubert have a psychological shadow, so he later set such rules when he established this hostel.
But now, Schubert is a little entangled, he has been here for half a year, but the business has not been very good, and Nader is the first person in the past month who is willing to step into his hotel, and after entering, he has not wanted to leave, this is his future financial master, thinking of this, Schubert's heart began to be entangled, and finally, finally succumbed to life, let Nader walk in with Elizabeth.
At this time, Nader's three servants who had followed him from Billo to Rome also parked the carriage and walked in, and when Schubert saw that there were still three people, he could not help admiring his wisdom, and fortunately did not refuse to let the little dog in, otherwise this great business would not have gone away.
Walking into the door of the hostel's green paint, a slightly empty living room space appeared in front of Nader and others, different from the outside of the special style of large-scale painting, the design style inside is obviously more warm, Nader looked at every piece of wall, is used half of the wood to block the original cold stone wall, making the room seem a lot warmer, Nader took a closer look, and found that the texture of these woods is also very special, as if it is connected to the waves, the waves are tactful, people can't help but smile。
Around the room, the design of the windows is also very interesting, on the opposite side of each normal size window, there is also a relatively narrow window, which allows the air to be convection, but also under this special condition, so that the effect of light and shadow has completely changed, with the rotation of the sun, from east to west, the shooting point of the light in the room will also slowly change, with the surrounding things, as if in the sea water, with the turbulent sea water through the sunlight, giving people a sense of illusion in direct and refractionThis feeling also allowed Nader to see a wonderful experience in this empty place that was not empty.
"Young man, this design is really special, can I ask, who made it?"
Nader looked at such a different design, and the soul of Wenqing in his heart couldn't help but start to burn, so he asked Schubert sincerely beside him, in his opinion, people who can design such a different from traditional concepts are definitely not simple people.
Unexpectedly, after hearing these words, Schubert's enthusiasm has changed significantly compared to his previous enthusiasm, and his face has become a lot redder, but Nader's question has not been answered for a long time, and the whole person has begun to become twisted and pinched, as if this question is difficult for Schubert, until a while, Schubert said it.
"This is my design, sir. ”
After finishing speaking, Schubert's heart was apprehensive, he knew how failed his design was, how unpleasant it was, it had been half a year since it opened, and if it was accurate, it should be 5 months and 14 days.
In the whole half a year, there are many people who have come to their own hostel, but when they walk into the house, there are very few people who are willing to stay, many people are after seeing their own layout, they feel too dark and leave here, and choose a cheaper place, such a setback, undoubtedly made the original elated, decided to start a different life, and even took his sister to the city of Rome, hoping to help him take care of his business, Schubert was hit very hard, especially in the design that Nader said, the blow to self-confidence was even greater。
So now Nader once again mentioned design in Schubert's ears, which undoubtedly made Schubert feel that Nader didn't want to live here, so he was very worried, especially when he thought that his sister would follow him, he should have lived a good life, but he didn't expect that following his sister was not as happy as when he was in the countryside, and the food was not as pleasant as when he was in his hometown, which made Schubert feel a little desperate at this moment, in front of Nader, an old man who seemed to be very kind.
When Nader watched Schubert do this, he had already guessed that the designs in front of him should be related to the person in front of him, but he had been wondering why he had created such an admirable person, why he was not proud of it, but ashamed of it, so Nader didn't speak, but now he heard the young man open his mouth, Nader was also sure, but since the original owner didn't seem to want to say much, Nader naturally could only hold back the doubts in his stomach, and after saying a few good words, he walked towards the counter。
This time it made Schubert a little surprised, I didn't expect this old gentleman to be willing to stay here after seeing such a terrible design, and said a few words, the meaning of those words, is it a good meaning, Schubert resolutely doubted that there was something wrong with his ears, but I thought that among the old gentleman's previous guests, there were indeed a few people who were interested in their own design, so I didn't care too much about Nader's statement, there are many normal people, and there must be a few abnormal to adjust the boring life of normal people?
Seeing Nader's posture of continuing to move forward, he put aside his doubts and followed.
Walking to the counter, Nader didn't see anyone, lowered his head and saw a little girl who didn't look very big was dozing off on the table, Nader couldn't help but smile in his heart, this hotel is really interesting, even the boss and the staff, all of them are sleeping champions.
